The Rejected Female Alpha Chapter 20
The first contraction struck before Adrian had left the clinic, and the pain was so sudden that I nearly cried out loud enough to expose my hiding place.I clutched the edge of the storage shelf, struggling to breathe as the pressure tightened across my abdomen. The pain eased after several seconds, leaving me trembling and cold despite the warmth of the room. I had known the pregnancy would eventually bring me to this moment, but I was not prepared for it to happen while council agents questioned Adrian in the reception area and someone outside watched the building.I pressed both hands against my stomach, willing the discomfort to disappear. It returned before I could stand upright, stronger this time, forcing me to bite down on my lip to keep from making a sound. Something was wrong. I was not far enough along for the birth, and the fear that seized me was sharper than the pain itself.When the contraction finally passed, I slipped out of the storage room and hurried toward the rea

I knew someone had returned to the clinic before I saw the black vehicle again.The morning after the break-in, Mara and I had spent hours repairing the damage, replacing the broken latch on my bedroom door and gathering the papers scattered across the floor. The stolen letter remained missing, and neither of us could explain why a masked stranger would risk entering a building merely to take an old piece of paper. I wanted to believe the intruder had found what he came for and would leave us alone, but every unfamiliar sound made me turn toward the windows.By midday, Mara insisted that I eat something while she checked the rear entrance. I sat at the kitchen table with a cup of tea between my hands, watching the steam rise and disappear. The fever from the previous night had faded, but weakness lingered in my limbs, and an uncomfortable sensitivity had settled over my senses. I could distinguish the movements of animals in the adjoining rooms and hear the faint crunch of gravel outs

The black vehicle had been parked across the road from Mara’s clinic since breakfast, and by noon I was certain its occupants were watching me.At first, I tried to convince myself that it belonged to a traveler passing through the borderlands. The vehicle was old enough to blend in with the delivery carts and farmers’ wagons that used the road, but its windows were dark, and nobody had entered or left it during the hours I spent tending to the animals. Whenever I approached the clinic windows, I caught the faint impression of someone moving inside. Each time I looked directly, however, nothing happened.By late afternoon, the uneasy feeling had settled beneath my skin. I had grown accustomed to being watched in Blood Moon, where Rosalie and her friends treated every movement I made as an opportunity for ridicule, but this felt different. The people inside that vehicle were not waiting to laugh at me or remind me of my place. They were waiting for something, and I suspected that somet

The letter arrived at Mara’s clinic before I had finished breakfast, carried by a Blackthorn warrior who looked as though he expected the entire borderland to kneel simply because he wore his Alpha’s insignia. I recognized the black wax seal pressed into the envelope before Mara even placed it on the table. Adrian Blackthorn had found a way to reach me, and judging by the rigid expression on the messenger’s face, he had not sent a request he expected me to refuse.I sat very still, my spoon resting against the edge of my bowl. The previous night’s fever had left me weak, and the memory of the woman in the burning forest continued to trouble me. My wolf had been sleeping, she had said. I could not decide whether those words offered hope or warned me that something terrible was approaching. Now Adrian’s seal lay between Mara and me, carrying the authority of the man who had publicly declared me unworthy of being his mate.“Are you going to open it?” Mara asked.I stared at the envelope.

The frost on Mara’s clinic windows had formed patterns that looked almost like branches, twisting across the glass despite the warmth pressing against the building from outside. I stood beside my bed, staring at them, with my fingers wrapped around the blanket I had dragged from the mattress. The dream of Adrian calling my name still clung to me, leaving an ache beneath my ribs that had nothing to do with the pregnancy. I touched the cold glass, then snatched my hand away when a sharp sting ran through my fingertips.Something was wrong with me, and pretending otherwise was becoming harder with every passing day.I had barely returned to bed when the fever struck. Heat swept through my body so suddenly that I gasped, and the room tilted as I reached for the bedside table. My knees buckled before I could catch myself. I crawled back onto the mattress, pulled the blanket away, and tried to breathe through the dizziness, but the air felt thick and heavy, as though the clinic had been sea

The pain struck just as I was beginning to believe that Adrian Blackthorn no longer had the power to reach me.I was sorting a box of medical supplies in Mara's clinic when a sharp pressure tightened beneath my ribs, stealing my breath and forcing me to grip the edge of the table. It was not the familiar cramping that had frightened me days earlier, but something deeper, an ache that seemed to pull at a place inside me I could neither see nor understand. I stood motionless until it eased, then looked toward the windows as though the answer might be waiting beyond the glass.Nothing had changed outside. The afternoon sun still warmed the yard, and the animals rested quietly in their kennels, unaware that my body had once again betrayed my attempt to live normally. I rubbed my chest and reminded myself that exhaustion, stress, and pregnancy could explain a great deal. I had no proof that Adrian had anything to do with the sensation, and I refused to let the memory of our bond become an
