Chapter Two: Emily's POV

I ran into my room and started packing my things. My head was brimming with a lot of emotions. I didn't like the feeling of dizziness that seemed to be engulfing me.

My parents died and left me behind, now the moon goddess just sat still and watched my mate get stolen from me. Somebody walked into my room and my nose immediately told me it was him.

I waited for him to say something, but he said nothing and just moved to the chair. He sat across it and looked at me.

“Where are you going?” He asked.

“Anywhere that isn't here,” I answered coldly.

Deep down, I wanted him to tell me it was a prank, and that he was just testing how jealous I could be. I wanted reassurance.

But at the same time, from the look on his face, I knew this was no joke. It was real.

“Why would you do this to me? Why?” I asked him, tears in my eyes. “I mean, you made love to me just hours ago. You took my virginity and completed the mate bond. I mean, we had something special between us.” I cried out and Daniel just looked at me with cold eyes, almost like he wasn't even present in the room.

“You will need to vacate the room as soon as possible. My Luna will need a place to stay, and she said she wants this room.” He said and stood up, heading towards the door.

He paused and looked back at me. “Did you really think that I would make you the Pack’s Luna? My Luna? You are a weak Omega. You should know your place.” He said finally and walked out.

I folded my hands and my finger dug into my skin, almost drawing out blood. I didn't want to let his words get to me but it was hard not to. I hurried my packing, wanting to leave the palace as soon as possible.

There was a party to welcome the new Luna, which should have been me. I wiped the tears that threatened to fall off my eyes and walked out of the Alpha’s house. I willed myself not to look back as I kept walking.

“Where are you going? You have nowhere to go if you leave, you know.” One of the palace maids said and I looked around to see the owner of the voice.

“I’d rather live in the streets than endure this kind of humiliation.” I muttered and walked away finally from the Alpha’s house.

The house I had lived in ever since my parents died, now I was leaving because the mate, the moon goddess gave me, decided to be mean and selfish and a cold-hearted bastard.

I walked slowly, trailing my luggages behind me. I so badly wanted to leave this pack, go somewhere nobody knew me.

Yes, I needed to start afresh. I was so lost in thought that I didn't know when I walked right into the road.

“Get off the road! Do you have a death wish?!” A person shouted to me as they blared their horn loudly, and I turned to glare at her for interrupting my thoughts.

Suddenly, I felt myself flying hard, and landing on a cold hard pavement. I felt my head burst open, it hurt a lot.

“Mom..” I said weakly, before allowing the clouding feeling of unconsciousness to envelop me.

Oh moon goddess. Is this how I die? Is this really the end? Do I not get the chance to exact revenge on those who looked down on me? Please spare me. Please.

********

I opened my eyes groggily and looked around, trying to figure where I was. A sharp pain hit my head as I tried to sit up.

The strong smell of antiseptic hit me, and with the walls, I knew I was in the hospital. A Doctor walked in shortly and stared at me, seemingly surprised at my conscious state.

“You are awake. What’s your name?” She asked, as she pointed a flash light in my eyes.

“Um, It's Emily. Emily Salvatore.” I said and the doctor sighed in relief.

“Thank the goddess. You are going to feel a little bit woozy because the anesthesia just wore off. Did you know you were pregnant?” The doctor said and I looked at her.

“That’s nonsense. How can I be pregnant?” I asked and the doctor shrugged with a small smile.

“I get that sort of reaction all the time, especially from people who aren't planning about children. But according to the tests we did and the scans, we can ascertain that you are pregnant, Miss Emily. It's not normal among humans to get pregnant this quickly but seeing that we are a different breed, I can confidently tell you that you are carrying another life inside of you.”

The doctor said and suddenly, a wave of dizziness hit me. This wasn’t what I was expecting to hear.

“I will leave you be. So please get some rest.” She said again when I didn't respond to her and started to walk out.

“Wait! The Baby! Is it okay? Is it alive? Did the accident affect it?” I asked and the doctor shook her head.

“The baby’s perfect. No hurt, nothing. Seems like your body decided to protect you, cause from a force that hard, it should have resulted in a miscarriage.” The doctor answered and I sighed.

A baby? A fucking baby?! How? I mean, I know how. But why? Why now, when it was all over with Daniel? The first time I decided to get intimate with my mate..… Boom, a baby appears.

How on earth was I gonna take care of a baby? Should I just get rid of them?

Oh no no, that’s a sick thought.

Then what can I do? Part of my mind told me to return back to the pack and tell Daniel about it. I mean, he most definitely would not abandon me, if I bear him an heir right?

Oh stop this, Emily. You're being delusional. If you go back to the Alpha’s Palace, what awaits you there is humiliation. A massive one. There’s only one way.

You have to survive on your own. I begged the kind doctor not to let anyone know of my pregnancy. Being the Alpha's ward, I was known by many people within the pack's territory.

And immediately after my discharge from the hospital, I left….leaving Daniel and the life I've always known behind.
