Lahat ng Kabanata ng Marked by the Alpha’s Enemy: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Alisha.“Sit down and have some lunch dear,” Simon gently said to me. I sighed, for what felt like the hundredth time since this morning, and obeyed silently.Unlike what I expected he had not, even once, regarded me with pity or judgement in his eyes since last night. Since that news…I picked at the salad he had painstakingly made for me, and tried to eat a little.It was hard to deny the anxiety I felt within me.Just the thought of carrying a child, this child I had within me… it filled me with dread and made my heart pound so loudly I could barely hear my own thoughts.“Are you feeling sick again? I can prescribe something for you to take,” Simon asked and I shook my head.“I just don’t feel much like eating I guess,” I mumbled under my breath. He nodded, staring thoughtfully at me.“Do you feel anxious? Or is it something else?”I didn’t answer. But somehow he seemed to read my mind.I had no idea what to do now that I was pregnant.I can’t even take care of myself, much less a

AlishaIt was like a scene out of those drama filled books I had taken to reading during my spare time.I gaped at Derek, recognizing him instantly.Oh no.Before he could say anything else I turned and ran.How did this happen, I thought furiously.How did I manage to meet the very man I was going to avoid and stay away f to m?How did I manage to, on this bright summers day, bump into the father of my child?“Wait!” I heard a voice behind me and I pushed more energy behind my feet, propelling me to the doors of the pack clinic.Luckily it was a quiet day and there were no patients scheduled for any appointments today.I had hoped to get some clarity of mind when I went on the walk that Simon had suggested I do. But now it seemed like it had been a setup. A grand twist of fate from the great moon goddess herself.I slipped into the quiet clinic, my heart pounding.Within seconds the door opened and he came bounding in, his eyes that looked like molten gold a stormy expression.I quai

DerekFuck, was a word that couldn’t even describe how I was feeling.I entered my home and ignored the guards bowing down at me. With long quick strides I made my way to my study, trying to keep a semblance of calm against the raging inferno I felt.She was here.Alisha had been in this pack all this while…The first thing that I did as soon as I entered the study and shut the door behind me was to go over to the bar, grab the whiskey bottle and take a big gulp straight from it. The alcohol burned going down but it paled still in comparison to the burning feeling in my chest.The mate bond that had been sleeping since I woke up that morning after the Silver Wolf Pack party, was alive and active.There were so many questions I wish I could have asked her in that clinic, but I had no reason to rush. Thinking about our encounter gave me the feeling that she was skittish, but for what reason?I don’t know how long that I had spent sitting there and taking swigs from the bottle of whiskey

DerekDays after my encounter with Alisha at the pack clinic, I was seated in my study looking over the report that one of the guards had sent in from the border when there was a knock on the door. Before I even knew what was happening, the door opened and a sweaty guard rushed in. He was panting heavily and I regarded him with curiosity.“Alpha, there’s been an issue at our borders,” the guard breathlessly reported.I stood, report promptly forgotten.“What happened?” The guard looked hesitant and my concern only grew. It had to be something serious if he was looking this bewildered. “Report,” I growled.The guard bowed and began to speak. I listened intently.“Alpha, there was a distress signal at the border. The last patrol team at the western border were under attack.”“Rogues?”The man shook his head.“Not sure, Alpha. But they were clearly targeted for some reason.”I had an idea who it was that was behind the attack.“The Silver Moon Pack…” I snarled, clenching my hands into f

AlishaI took in a deep breath. Was I really about to do this? Was I really about to tell Simon about my connections with Derek? I had no choice in the matter though. I couldn’t figure out what to do by myself.I opened my mouth, trying to find the right words as I stuttered out, “It’s something I should have told you a long time ago. About the father of my child…” He displayed no emotion as he listened to me. “I know it’s kind of hard to believe but the father of my chld… It… it’s Derek.”“What?” he sounded so shocked, that he stod up from his chair. “You cannot simply be serious… Alpha Derek? You are sure?”I nodded, feeling tears prick my eyes. Quickly I raised my hand up to rub at my eyes, I did not want those tears to fall. I was done crying about my pitiful situation.Simon let out a large breath and i heard him tutting repeatedly “I should have known. I suspected something was up when he came in the other day…”“I didn’t even know he was the Alpha then… I was scared when I saw
