Semua Bab Running Away: Pregnant For My Contractual Alpha: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Ella’s POVDespite the shock of hearing Selena openly declare war and admitting to purposely framing Aunt Emily, I still found the strength to walk out of that bathroom as fast as I could.I half ran and half walked across the general living room. All I wanted to do was to get as far away from her as possible. I had nothing to my name. I had no house and no money. I couldn’t survive out there without these things for too long. I was pregnant and that meant I couldn’t be homeless. If Selena could make her aunt stay in the dungeon, what more could she do for me, a mere addition to their family?I had just gotten past the door and I was about to take the bend to my room when strong arms wrapped around me. I almost let out a scream until my eyes raised and I saw who was holding me.Michael.“Where are you going so fast?” he asked as his eyes moved over mine.The shock I had just escaped from returned and I was suddenly filled with fear as I looked around us before I decided to speak to

Ryker’s POVA thunderbolt off in my head as soon as the words left her mouth.My heart started beating at a very fast rate and I found it impossible to calm it. A thousand thoughts fought to stay in my head at the same time and I didn’t even know where to start from or which to hold on to.“Are you sure about this?” I asked, my voice suddenly husky with emotions.Olga nodded her head and started pulling her fingers as tears filled her face, “I am not too sure Alpha… I only noticed that she started throwing up; she was having lots of cravings and she didn’t use the sanitary pad provided for her that month… I don’t-”A ringing went off in my ears and my body suddenly became heavy as emotions overwhelmed me. I got off my position and started pacing as I tried to think of any point in time when I had noticed anything wrong with Ella.The only time she had acted strange was the day we had dinner together. She could barely eat more than two spoons. I had pushed it aside as anxiety or maybe

Ella’s POV“Oh, why am I even asking, of course, you really want to steal. You are a thief. Both of you!” Selena screeched even louder than her first accusation.Esther fell to her knees and held her hands together as if she was about to say a prayer, “Please, my princess… it’s not the way you are seeing it… we only wanted to see the Luna’s portraits and nothing more,” she cried but Selena’s eyes were burning with evil intent, and I knew begging her was useless.“You only wanted to see?” she let out a dark chuckle, flinging her hair to the side. “How stupid do you think I am?” she took a step closer to Esther and pointed a menacing finger at her.Her eyes narrowed and they moved from Esther -who was still on the floor to me- to me, “I am going to teach you both a very big lesson! When I am done, you won’t even be able to think of theft anymore.” she hissed with a very dark expression on her face.My heart skipped a beat as I realized that this was a perfect opportunity for her to get

Ella’s POVThroughout the night, Selena’s cold words kept echoing through my head and sleep became difficult. I rolled over and over, silently begging the goddess to protect me.Selena was right. I was not a saint. I had skeletons just like she had mentioned and one of those skeletons was my pregnancy. If the family ever got to know about it, they were surely going to throw me off to the streets.The night became longer as my thoughts continued haunting me. By the time the first rays of the morning sun seeped into my room, I had come up with a plan.I knew my belly might start showing soon but before then, I was certain that I would find a way out. The only thing I had to worry about now was Selena. I just had to avoid her and not get in her way. This included, me staying away from Alpha Andrew, who she thought I was trying to steal from her and Michael. It was going to be difficult especially since Michael had become a big part of my routine and life in the royal house. But for me

Ryker’s POV“Where did you go yesterday, I noticed you came home very late,” Willow’s voice rang out in my head causing me to snap out of my thoughts.My wolf shifted within me, and I had to take a moment to calm down before raising my head to meet her icy blue orbs. “My love,” I whispered, hoping to get to her. But she frowned, pushed the door wide open, and invited herself inside my office.“You left in a hurry, I was worried. I thought there was a problem, where did you go babe?” she insisted as she got in front of me.Her eyes trapped me in them, and a better feeling swept through me, leaving shards of shame within me. I couldn’t lie to her, no matter how hard I tried.“I went to Greenwood,” I said with a sigh, expecting her to burst out in anger.Her eyes seemed to widen in shock but before I could fully grasp the expression on her face, she smiled and all I saw was the angel I fell in love with. She closed the distance between us and came to position herself on my desk. She rea
