Lara's pov:
I couldn't believe what I heard at all , no way it was possible, I'm just 26 how can my ovulation window close now?, The whole test proves I'm totally fine so where is the complications coming from? I was soo devastated The only thing I could do was hug Dr Jane.. She has been a mother Figure to me right from time , "this.. what do I do "? I was lost, then she spoke up "not as bad as they look , two options"... Thinking deeply about what she said I just thought of James, no way he'd be happy if he hears the first option and no way I'm letting another man's sperm in me, James and I have survived a lot , depriving him of that chance will hurt So I made up my mind " I choose the second option "... I have always wanted to carry my own child , that has been my desire for years, I wanted to care for my own children, give them the motherly love I never got , that was before meeting miss Jane though... Hugging her tight and getting a pat on the back , she asked me to go change! Yeah time to face reality .... Moving to the other room I went to the table in the middle of the room to pick my pants to put on " stupid hospital wear" I sighed as I always had hard time trying to change from it Already pulling It up to my neck and couldn't see a thing no more , I heard the sound of the door open " oh miss Jane I'll be done soon, just need to get that dress off me" Not hearing response which was unlike here I brought my gown down only to see a tall huge and handsome man looking straight at me! "ahhh , damn you pervert!" I told my bag from the side and threw it at him, and that was a bad Idea, because I lost my balance and down I went , "oh noo" falling to the ground I waited for an impact but instead I felt a strong manly scent fill my nostrils Damn this scent was .... I couldn't tell but there was something about it "I see you're comfortable in my arm, should I bring coffee or maybe cookie so you'll relax more"? My eyes flew open when I heard his voice Looking straight into his eyes and sharing the same breath my poor heart began beating too fast , " wow , what a really loud heartbeat " he said again and this time I pushed him away and regained balance "you... you should mind what you Say" I said and frowned "besides this is a ladies room" pointing at the sign on the door he looked towards the direction of my hands and raised his brow Feeling he didn't want to get shamed by a lady he cleared his throat and said "I can be whereever I want to be at anytime , where is Jane "? Looking at him with disgust , I immediately knew which animal he was, a werewolf! I said under my breath and began feeling dizzy " I can't breath the same air with them " I muttered under my breath and picked my pants from the floor and walked as fast as possible to another room Coming out of the building finally dressed up , I sighed internally and entered the car , " phew, James, here I come ... we have a lot of activities to do " Thinking about the wolf I just had an encounter with, it sent shivers down my spine and I prayed to the heavens in hopes we'll never ever cross paths Moving that aside I remembered my fiancee I smirked as I dailed his number " hmm , this Is usual " I raised a brow as I had already called three times without him answering the phone ... I know how much my fiancee cherishes me Moving it to the back of my head I decided to get a strong wine then drive home and meet him Parking at the front of our apartment, I didn't even wait a second, I left my documents in the car and picked just the wine, stepping in , the house reeked of strong liquor, and the sound of song playing at a very loud volume " this songs.... for only " that mood" I felt my body shiver a bit but I waved it all aside and went straight to our bedroom " James my sweetheart, let's make ba....... Coming in the door was wide open , as I got the shock of my life! "JANIS!" I screamed with my might My childhood friend was right there! sleeping with my fiancee "James how could you"? I spoke again My whole body was weak , I could only stand frozen on a spot The bottle in my fell to the floor and shattered into pieces, just like my poor heart James at first was surprised, but Janis wasn't, she smiles devilishly and climed down the bed and stood face to face with me "Well what do we have here"? she said and James walked up behind her "Lara , this... I can explain "... "WHAT! EXPLAIN WHAT! HOW DARE YOU TRY TO GIVE STUPID EXPLANATIONS WHEN I CAUGHT YOU REDHANDED "? I said and gave him a sounding slap Tears were at the corner of my eyes but I fought to keep it in "How dare you"? Janis said and slapped me back.. Caught off guard my Butt landed on the hard floor " you bitch, hands off my man" she added and my ears twitched "me? a bitch? you are the one sleeping with my fiancee Janis and I'm the bitch here"? I dusted my butt as I stood up "I doubt that fiancee even had you in mind since, Baby tell her what you've been doing to her vitamins ...." Janis said with a smirk and I turned to look at James " I... I replaced your vitamins with birth control drugs " James said as his jaw tightened My heart sank finally , James ... " You know how much having children means to me and you did this?, tell me where have I gone wrong? all you needed I provided , and this is how you repay me? "Liar! Janis spat " you haven't done a single thing for my man apart from stress his brain " Putting my hands on my waist I then said " if he really is your man then he should have a good reason why my name is always first in the documents? Seeing she didn't have what to say I laughed and crossed my hands " guess this fiancee thing isn't really working out as well as it is " "Lara , just leave right now , you're no longer welcomed here" James put his pants on as he said "hello, I'm the owner of this , we already signed the papers last month remember? this is all mine , now you both should get out of my house and my life " I said and I pointed my finger at the door Surprisingly they both laughed and Janis finally found her tongue " oh sweetheart, you're so dumb , do you think I'll have my man sign those rubbish papers and let you handle it? no way, you foolishly handed all your assets to him, so darling you're what I'll call ..... " she put her hand on her chin then said " PENNILESS " hahaha Hearing this , the last piece of my heart shattered and I bled internally "James you can't do this to me, you know the main reason why we signed that paper, my heal...." I chocked on my tears.. "take the car with you, you have exactly 20 minutes to pack your things and leave Lara , this is how much I can tolerate you right now" James said as he threw a moving box at me " or you're welcome to be our housemaid, don't worry you'll be placed on salary , and then you'll be sleeping in that dog's crib" Janis said and laughed " that's enough Janis , get dressed we're stepping out ". James scolded and Janis hissed , kicked my hands and left the room. In less then 20 minutes I packed my not so plenty belongings and walked out of the room. Seeing James standing alone at the doorstep I kept my things in the car and tured to look at him, I then asked " did you ever mean all the things you said to me that night"? tears finally rolled down my face and my eyes were red Hands in his pocket James wanted to talk but at the split moment he held back and sniffed almost silently but I noticed Turning without saying a word he went inside and shut the door violently Smiling sadly and finally accepting defeat I entered the car and drove straight to the hospital "miss Jane " was all that rang in my headAt the office, Ella looked at Crane who was on the phone with Alexander ( So It is true.... the Alpha got a surrogate ? ) ( I think I will have to make my research about her.) ( That Janis is so useless , how did she get herself into Crane's trap? what a waste). Ella couldn't help but roll her eyes internally Ella thought still looking at Crane who smiled a bit for the first time in ages When was the last time she saw him smile? That was over Thirty years ago , how time flies Remembering the past Ella smiled a bit , but then, That incident happened, and Crane was never the same since then He just... changed, this made Ella's face turn from smiley to and angry face That woman never deserved him ! She just came to cause havoc and ruin all great ..... " And what is wrong with you"? Crane turned to Ella , who's face didn't look so good Asking her and bringing her back to earth Looking straight at Crane , Ella asked " and why was I not Informed about the s
Janis was lost in thoughts that she missed when Maya was put to sleep and James came and stood before her "Jan Jan, Jan.... Janis " James called out " huh, oh umm James, can we umm can we talk"? " can we talk"? both Janis and James said the same thing at once " umm fine you go first okay" Janis said with her heart in her mouth , Since Maya went missing this was the first time James initiated the first conversation He did not even want to see her " Alright then" James said and sat down directly opposite her " Firstly, I will ummm" James stopped for a bit , " I know I said you first , but please James hear me out, it is the pregnancy hormones that happened that day okay, I would never hurt Maya in any way , orally and physically, she's is such a cute thing , I would never have the heart to hate her " Janis said in an heartbeat , making James smile inside [ what on earth do you take me for Janis? , Maya can do anything but lie ] " but I picked one or two words
Coming outside , the bodyguards in black bowed properly , Startling Lara a bit " Greetings Luna " they all chorused at the same time "Rise, and in place" Alex, noticing how startled Lara was took over and in few minutes they were all set to head out Sitting in the Rolls-Royce in between the other cars, Lara rested her head and closed her eyes Few minutes the door of the car opened and Maya entered, after Maya Yousef entered, followed by Alex and Peter, sitting at the front Peter in the driver's seat and Alex on the right " and this a full family " Lara said Smiling and the rest laughed except for Maya who had a little frown on her face The car engine started and they all drove out, in total fourteen cars with that of Lara making fifteen left the compound " baby , should we stop to get some ice "? Lara knew something was wrong with Maya, but she just could not pinpoint Shaking her head violently and crossing her arms " I don't want to go back there" waaaaaaaa
It was the beginning of a new week , all workers were moving swiftly around the house , Lara was woken up twice in a roll Turning to her side, she looked at Maya who slept holding one of her arms , smiling a bit and gently removing her hands , she got up to see Peter standing at the door, eyes wide open " mmhmm Peter, you didn't get a wink of sleep did you"? Lara said passing him and reaching for the door knob " oh no Luna, good morning ma" Peter finally spoke , and damn his voice was really really deep this morning Looking at him and Smiling " don't wake my baby girl with that voice of yours hehe" Lara said and winked then went outside Walking down the staircase towards the front door " and where are you headed to young woman"? A really deeper voice stopped her in her tracks, hearing his strong footsteps approaching she just stood without saying a word , reaching really close she could smell his masculine scent from behind 'oh well it was quite strong , no o
Knocking on Lara's door , Peter opened it to see Alex and Maya Alex held Maya in his hands and she held a little lollipop, and blinked at Peter with her round eyes "hey Peter is the Luna awake"? Alex asked and Peter nodded gently , "yes Sir Alex " opening the door wide for them to enter , Alex smiled at Peter then walked straight to the bed where Lara was sitting ,eating fruits and looking else where with a not so happy expression on her face " good day Luna " Alex smiled and Lara turned to look at the guests she had Expressions turning to a happy one , she picked the fruit tray from her lap and kept it on the stool besides her " hey baby girl" she spread her hands wide for Maya to give her a hug which Maya responded with a big smile and wiggled her way from Alex's grip " woah there little soldier, easy there you will say hello to big sis but, remember there is a little baby in there too okay"? Alex held her shoulders and raised a brow in question Which Maya nodded
Feeling relieved, Lara followed Crane Frowning Feeling her behind him , Crane turned back with speed and Lara hit her small head into his chest " what was that for huhh"? Lara said as she rubbed her forehead Frowning Crane held her hand and dragged her outside " and you are coming with me ,now"! [ not again, oh gosh] Lara thought in her head and rolled her eyes internally " stop this ! I can walk by myself, your actions will make me dizzy .... Crane stoop" Lara tried to free herself but his grip was quiet tight , if she tried to force it , she might as well just get herself injured Reaching Lara's room , Crane shut the door tightly " I told you we had to discuss and you ran away the moment we got in huh"? Crane said and Lara gulped Great. the heroic moment had just passed , now Lara looked like a scared dog " I'm talking to you Lara! , oh where has the strong motherly woman gone to? I thought you had the face to talk back at me a while ago " Crane said and
