All Chapters of MATED FOR ONLY A BABY: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Two weeks after the encounter with my mate, I'm regretting it.All over the pack property, I'm being pointed and sneered at. Not just because of the incident with the warriors but for something else.My stupid public sex with Liam."She's despicable.""Desperate to take Luna Tina's place.""I wonder what the elders are saying concerning this whore.""Alpha Liam is being too generous to a common rogue."All sorts of venomous curses had been thrown my way. There was nothing I had not heard since that day. The worst part- this was only the starting.It took a lot of work for wolves to conceive for the very first time. First pups were the hardest.It would be exceptionally harder for me with a weakened wolf.Bottom line: we had to do this multiple times. And so that's what we did. It didn't matter where I was or what I was doing. As long as my mate wanted a fuck, he would send for me and get one. It even got to the point where I now stay in the main pack house.This word spread quickly a

Trigger warning: scene contains content similar to self harm.My ears are ringing from how much adrenaline is coursing through my veins. The image of the mating mark is burning my thoughts. Did he really do that?When? How?I'm hyperventilating and it's not just from the fear of losing my friends. It's from betrayal. Hot, coursing betrayal. My eyes start darting around the room; looking for any way to get out. Would Liam really...Would he really?Yes, he would. He didn't love me. He did not even care for my well being. He made it very clear how much he hated me; having me here only for the sake of an heir.I had even destroyed the hopes of being cherished by him.But even at that, this hurt. I never expected that he would mark Tina while I was still around. It was blatantly insulting as though I was nothing but a tool. He held me here against my will, made a deal that out me at such a disadvantage and still had the guts to disregard me in this manner.No.Absolutely not.Tears ar

The dungeons smell of blood and body fluids. I have to use my shawl to cover my nose.The stench here is so strong my eyes start to burn. It's dark as well, but for a few torches that are mounted in odd corners.I make sure I take small steps so I don't alert the guard outside. Immediately I get to the cells, prisoners start to growl at me. It smells a lot worse than the entrance; I really feel like gagging. I hold myself, making sure to walk in the middle to avoid the grappling hands of the prisoners. It doesn't go so well. One particularly crazed wolf lunges at the bars and stretches out a weirdly long arm. As I try to shift out of the way, the prisoners on the other side grip my shawl.I hold in my shriek and struggle with them. They all smell of rogues. Alpha Liam was not killing them.All of them here looked like they had been mentally broken.This was worse than torture. I wonder, as I fight desperately with a clear eyed prisoner- what Liam's true issues with rogues are. I

I don't know what to say so I keep quiet.What is he getting at? If he is trying to seduce me, then it won't work. My mind is very much occupied with my predicaments here."I don't care," I tell him plainly, seething. "All I want is my friends' safety. Nothing more. I can't care less if you derive some stupid pleasure from this. I really can't."I raise my hand to wipe my tears and steady my breathing."You want me to free those rogues." Liam states."Yes. I do.""So what do I tell the elders that have judged them? That I freed trespassers for the sake of a whore I'm supposed to kill?"I let out a short, snappy laugh. "It's either you free them or you put me on death row too. I would never want to live with that guilt. They did nothing...they didn't even know this was your pack territory. How is that their fault?"Liam tries to approach me again but I raise a hand. "Please don't.""I will free them." He says and I look up at him in slight disbelief. I never expected him to agree so su

As the Red Grove Alpha's son kisses my ear, I sight my mate in the crowd behind him.Liam's eyes are hard. He's supposed to be in a conversation with a group but his eyes are fixated on me.And no, it's not to make sure I'm doing my job well- there's pure envy in his eyes.For some odd reason, that turns me on.Liam's looking straight into my eyes as Miles whispers into my ear. I smile a soft, calm smile and blink at him."Let us dance," I say to Miles, grabbing his neck. He agrees and we take to the dance floor. A slow, sultry music is playing and I begin to dance.I've always been a dancer. At least when I was still free, living from rogue camp to the other.Now is the perfect time to use this skill. I begin to dance, moving my hips to the beat. I keep my eyes on Miles but every now and then, I look at Liam. He has not stopped looking at me once. I make sure to twirl as seductively as I can, piercing him with my gaze.At some point, he loosens his collars as though hot.Miles and I
