Chapter 3: The Chosen Surrogacy She-Wolf

(Sophia's Point of View)

I couldn't believe it. The Alpha had chosen me to be the surrogate for his pack. Me, a simple she-wolf who had never expected to be noticed by anyone, let alone the Alpha himself.

As I made my way back to my room, I felt a sense of elation and disbelief coursing through me. I had always wanted to do something meaningful for my pack, to give back in some way, but I never imagined it would be something like this.

I couldn't help but think about the Alpha as I walked. His intense gaze, the power and authority in his voice - it was all so captivating. I knew I shouldn't be thinking about him like this, but I couldn't help it. He was the Alpha, after all, and I was just a humble member of his pack.

As I entered my room, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness creeping in. What if I wasn't ready for this? What if I couldn't carry a child to term? What if something went wrong?

But then I shook my head, pushing those thoughts away. I had been chosen for a reason, and I knew that the Alpha and his advisors would take care of me every step of the way. I would do everything in my power to make sure that this surrogacy was a success, no matter what.

As the days went on, I began to prepare myself for the process ahead. I underwent a battery of tests and medical exams, making sure that I was healthy and ready for the surrogacy. The Alpha's advisors were always there, watching over me, making sure that everything was done with care and attention.

And as the time approached for me to undergo the procedure, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness and excitement building within me. I was going to help the Alpha and his Luna wife start a family, to give them the child that they had always wanted. It was an honor beyond anything I could have imagined.

As I lay there in the medical room, waiting for the procedure of various tests to begin, I couldn't help but think about the Alpha again. I knew that I shouldn't be thinking about him like this, but I couldn't help it. There was just something about him - his confidence, his power, his intensity - that drew me in.

But then the procedure began, and I was pulled out of my thoughts. The doctors and nurses were all around me, working quickly and efficiently to make sure that everything was done correctly. I closed my eyes and focused on my breathing, trying to keep myself calm and centered.

And then it was over. The test was done, and I was left to rest and recover. The Alpha's assistants were there again, watching over me, making sure that everything was going smoothly.

As I lay there, recovering, I couldn't help but think about the child that is soon to grow inside of me. It was a strange feeling - knowing that I was carrying a child that wasn't mine, but that would still be a part of me in some way. I felt a sense of responsibility and protectiveness towards the child, wanting to make sure that it was healthy and safe.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for the Alpha's presence as the due date drew nearer. It was strange, as I had never felt this way before. But there was something about his strong, confident demeanor that made me feel safe and protected.

I tried to push those thoughts aside, reminding myself that this was a professional arrangement, and that I needed to focus on carrying the child to term. But every time I saw the Alpha, my heart skipped a beat.

One day, during a routine check-up with the medical team, I couldn't help but blurt out my feelings. "I'm sorry, this might sound strange, but I feel like I'm longing for the Alpha's presence all of a sudden. Is this normal?"

The doctor looked at me kindly. "It's not uncommon for surrogates to feel a sense of attachment to the Alpha or the intended parents. But remember, this is a professional arrangement, and your primary focus should be on carrying the child to term."

I nodded, feeling slightly embarrassed. But the feeling persisted, and I found myself stealing glances at the Alpha whenever he was around.

During one of our check-ups, the Alpha and his Luna wife joined us. I couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt as I saw her obvious baby bump. She had longed for a child for so long, and here I was, carrying her husband's child.

But the Luna wife was kind and gracious, thanking me for my willingness to carry their child. "I know it's not easy, but we're so grateful for everything you're doing for us," she said with a smile.

I nodded, feeling grateful for her kind words. "It's my pleasure. I'm just happy to be able to help in any way I can."

As the due date drew nearer, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if something went wrong? What if the child wasn't healthy? I tried to push those thoughts aside, reminding myself that I had done everything in my power to ensure a successful surrogacy.

The day I met with the Alpha, my nerves were on edge. I knew that we would be discussing the details of the surrogacy, and I wanted to make sure that I had all of my questions and concerns in order.

As I entered the conference room, I was surprised to see that the Alpha was already there, waiting for me. He was seated at the head of the table, his expression unreadable.

"Please, have a seat," he said, gesturing towards the empty chair opposite him.

I sat down, my heart pounding in my chest. The Alpha looked at me intently for a moment before speaking.

"Sophia, I want to thank you for agreeing to be our surrogate," he said, his voice low and serious. "This is a great responsibility, and I want you to know that we are all counting on you."

I nodded, feeling the weight of his words.

"Now, I understand that you have some questions for me," he continued.

I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. "Yes, Alpha. I wanted to ask about the birthing process. I've heard that it can be difficult for surrogates, and I just wanted to know what I should expect."

The Alpha leaned forward, his eyes locked on mine. "I want you to know that we will do everything in our power to ensure that the birth is as smooth and comfortable for you as possible. We have the best medical staff and facilities available, and we will spare no expense in making sure that you are well taken care of."

I felt a sense of relief wash over me. The Alpha's words were reassuring, and I felt a renewed sense of confidence in my decision to become a surrogate.

"But there is one thing that I must ask of you," the Alpha said, his tone serious.

"What is it?" I asked, my curiosity piqued.

"I want you to keep the fact that my wife is not the biological mother of the child a secret. My Luna wife must never know."

I was taken aback by his words. "But...why? Isn't that something she deserves to know?"

The Alpha sighed, looking tired and weary. "My Luna has been trying to conceive for years, Sophia. She has been through countless procedures and treatments, and she has been left heartbroken time and time again. I couldn't bear to see her suffer any more. When I learned that I was a compatible match for you, I knew that I had to take this chance. I know it's not ideal, but it's the only way to ensure that my Luna finally gets the child she deserves."

I felt a lump form in my throat. I could see the pain and desperation in the Alpha's eyes, and my heart went out to him.

"I understand," I said softly. "I will keep your secret."

The rest of the meeting passed in a blur. The Alpha and I discussed the logistics of the surrogacy, and I left feeling overwhelmed but determined. I knew that this was going to be a difficult journey, but I was ready to face it head-on. For the sake of my pack, and for the Alpha and his family, I would do whatever it took.

A few weeks after our initial meeting, I received a call from the Alpha's messenger requesting my presence at the Alpha's office. When I arrived, the Alpha was sitting behind his desk, his brow furrowed in concentration.

"Please, have a seat, Sophia," he said, gesturing towards the chair in front of his desk.

I sat down, feeling a sense of unease. The Alpha looked at me intently before speaking.

"I received a call from our doctor this morning," he said, his voice low and serious. "He told me that we must get my sperms and process them towards you. He said that it's the best way to ensure a successful pregnancy."

I felt my cheeks flush at the mention of the intimate procedure. I tried to remain composed as I spoke.

"I understand," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "When do we begin?"

The Alpha leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixed on mine. "We can start as soon as possible. I've arranged for a medical team to come to the packhouse next week."

I nodded, feeling a mix of excitement and apprehension. I knew that this was a necessary step in the process, but the thought of the procedure made me nervous.

"I understand that this can be a bit overwhelming," the Alpha said, his voice softening. "But I want you to know that we will be there to support you every step of the way. You are not alone in this."

I felt a sense of gratitude towards the Alpha. Despite our unusual situation, he was doing everything he could to make me feel comfortable and supported.

"Thank you," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "I appreciate your support."

The Alpha stood up, coming around his desk to stand in front of me. He placed a hand on my shoulder, his eyes meeting mine.

"I know that this is a difficult journey, Sophia. But I believe that you are strong enough to see it through. And I want you to know that I will do everything in my power to make sure that you are well taken care of."

I felt a surge of emotion, a mix of gratitude and respect for the Alpha. He was showing me a kindness and consideration that I had never experienced before.

"Thank you, Alpha," I said, my voice choked with emotion.

The Alpha smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "You're welcome, Sophia. Now, let's get this process started."
