ZenoIt's not fair. Whatever Nero has planned, it's not fair. I get it, I've never been the most wanted bachelor around these lands or whatever, but since we wed, I would rather take my responsibilities seriously. Maybe he thinks I told him I love him in the heat of a moment, which isn't true. I love that man and probably will love him till the end of my days, so I believe it would be better if he let me stay near during his rut.I'm not a gentle, breakable, fragile being who couldn't take it rough if he needed me. Isn't the whole purpose of being married, and now also mated, to support each other and never leave each other's side? Instead, he left, God knows where, and I'm stuck in the hospital with Damon. Unlike me, mister, 'I'll never take off my crocs, even if someone threatens to kill me' has full freedom, and he keeps disappearing somewhere at least three times each day while I rot in my hospital bed. Truth to be told, I didn't think I could survive without those pills, but

Zeno I know, for a fact, my cheeks burn bright red, and the blush travels down my neck and probably covers my entire body. Nero has one track mind, and though it's something I would hate with the men I dated in the past, there's something in this that makes him appear charming. He's not asking me to sleep with him just because he can. Desire and longing are so evident in his eyes that I think it's infectious. "I don't think the hospital is the best place for us to, you know, enjoy each other," I mutter the excuse. Honestly, his offer is rather tempting. Maybe it's the fact that we could get caught or would have to be really quick to escape the possibility. Or perhaps it's that Nero is so unbelievably sexy; I can't believe a man like him had an interest in me and ended up falling in love with me. My husband chuckles, lets go of me and trudges to the door. I raise an eyebrow as his hand reaches for the door handle, and Nero glances over his shoulder to wink at me. The lock on the

Zeno Something is bothering him, and this something is grand. No matter what, I'm desperate, not just willing, but freaking desperate to stay at Nero's side. Perhaps he started viewing our marriage and relationship differently since he found out I'm an Omega, but I don't want to believe the possibility. The thing is that there couldn't be anyone more surprised at the revelation than me. All my life, I thought I was an Alpha, a unique one at that. Born to lead and show others the way, to take care of and ensure everyone was fine, but on top of that, thanks to the moon I was born under, I've always had more compassion for others and a better understanding of their struggles. But now, as I face the man who stole my heart, I don't know where I stand anymore. Honestly, I wouldn't care if I would be a Beta or Delta for as long as I get to stay by his side. I don't want to make all those wild decisions and pretend I'm fine with the pressure. I'm fucking not; the pressure and stress of th

Zeno "So I can leave?" I ask the doctor as he walks me to the door. He nods and smiles. "You can. It's nothing major. To put it simply, it's a side effect your body has because the pills are finally leaving your body for good. However, keep in mind it shouldn't happen again and if there is another mysterious bleeding, please come here and let us know." I promise the doctor I wouldn't risk my health, and if anything were to happen, he would be the first to find out as we leave the room and walk down the hall. He keeps looking at something on my new medical card and hums a weird melody. My mind wanders to Nero. I tried to look for him before I went to the hospital, but nobody could tell me where he was. Well, hopefully, he will appear soon, so I won't feel guilty for holding secrets from him. Not that I intended to, so it's not like anyone could blame me for his absence. The doctor and I nearly reach the hospital's main door when he stops and opens his mouth to speak up, but the s

ZenoNero had to stay in the hospital for observations, but since we just learned about our early parenthood, he sent me back to our bedroom to rest. I wanted to stay in the hospital, but he kept insisting I needed proper rest, so I caved in.Honestly, I am tired beyond limits; I didn't want to show it, so I wouldn't worry Nero, but I'm pretty sure he can see past my walls at this point. As I walk down the halls, the pack members, every single one, who crosses my path, congratulate me. I exaggerated when I said Damon told everyone, but it seems like every little lie can hold the truth. Though a smile spreads across my lips at each kind word coming from them, I can't help but wonder what reaction my father might have. Nero is right; my father is a dick and always has been one, but that doesn't mean he's not my father anymore. I can't choose a parent, and so it happens the cards given to me by life aren't the best, yet, it is what it is. As much as I hope he would be happy to become
