Semua Bab FATED HEIR : Bab 31 - Bab 40

Chapter 31Anna's POV. With my wolf's swift ability, it was only a matter of time before I caught up to Maya. I growled at the shadow to stop but it continued running as though desperate to set me off his trail. Or reach a certain terrain in the woods. I failed to pinpoint his objective. Already, we were in the thickest part of the woods where it was dark, and even the moonlight couldn't penetrate through the broad shades of the tree, yet he didn't stop to fight. Tired of chasing aimlessly, I pounced on him. I grabbed his right arm with my claws, and we tumbled down for a while, but I quickly stood on my limbs, watching the figure transform into its wolf. With a sniff of the air, I could tell the man was a guard in the pack house, usually situated at the hallway towards the store room. What the hell was he doing kidnapping Maya? I asked myself. Maya swiftly ran behind me, panicking and trying to free her arms out of the ropes they bound her with. The guard was a threat to my

Chapter 33Gabriel's POV. My first day leaving Anna alone in the palace got me restless. I had a feeling that something was going to go wrong. Everything reminded me of her down to the clouds. Even when they cancelled the meeting for Alphas due to a territory attack on another notable Alpha's pack. I could have gone back immediately, but I had a secret I wanted to unravel. I wanted to make sure the truth wasn't actually a lie I was pressured into believing.I had everything I needed to take a test. If I was going to father a child, I needed to be sure I was prepared to make him an heir. The reports I wanted quickly surfaced, and even though I had an itch that something was wrong, I hated the fact that I was right. The test results were the total opposite to the claims she made. I felt used again. I was furious to return without letting anyone know. I resolved to make public her lies, and throw her out of my pack house along with everyone who would dare to support her. She was

Chapter 35Gabriel's POV. “She is in chains,” “Look at her, she must have cried herself a river,” “My goodness,” The mutters rose into a loud chatter as soon as I stopped talking. Anna adjusted her sitting posture and stared at Blair with curious intensity. She exchanged glances between the elders and I, her eyes widening with each passing second. “Alpha, if I may speak,” an elder called Marek raised his hands. “Don't you think it is ruthless to have the mother of your child in chains.” He suggested. “I mean, look at her. What if your son were to walk in here and see her in this condition,” Some elders nodded their heads in support and some muttered, but with hesitation. Well, I blinked for a second and raised my brows. “Blair, if you would like to tell us who the father of Andrew is, I would very much appreciate it,” I said with a menacing calmness. She jerked like she had been bitten and gulped emptily. “What are you talking about?” she fidgeted, her voice stuttering as s

Chapter 37Anna's POV. Things turned better with Blair's banishment. As a matter of fact, I had forgotten she ever stepped foot in the palace. I had even forgotten that Gabriel ever had a manipulative ex. As days slowly unravelled into weeks, I started gaining more weight and my baby got bigger in my stomach. My stomach stretched to a large bulge and as it got bigger, my beaming smile expanded. I couldn't stop myself from falling in love. Spending all day walking around the hall and waiting for Alpha Gabriel to come home from his office and finish up his role as Alpha proved exhausting, but the stress disappeared when he requested that I should follow him to a Gala for dignitaries and Alpha. It had been quite a long time since I went to one of those lavish events. I shrieked for joy within me when he dropped the message. Besides, I needed to stretch my muscles and take in a change of scenery for once. Unfortunately, I had one problem. My clothes weren't fitting anymore. I had a

Chapter 39Gabriel's POV. The doctor began to look even more confused than I was. For a second there, he had me doubting his skill and wishing I had just contacted our pack doctor. “She's alright,” the doctor abruptly stated, clasping his hands in finality. “You can visit her now. There's nothing wrong, just a little stress. Her blood pressure is good and I'm sure she caved in because she is getting closer to labor,” he explained. “Stress?” She has been the coolest and relaxed in days,” I argued, my lips twisting in curiosity. “Well, it could be mental stress. Or not. Most people tend to be dramatic with slight pain or…” What the hell? I exclaimed in my head. Was he claiming Anna fainted because she wanted attention? Who the hell was this doctor? And why hadn't I put him in his place? My brows furrowed and my eyes shone with rage. The doctor quickly raised his hands as though bowing in defeat. “It's not what you think,” he emphasized. “What I mean to say is the pain receptors in
