Semua Bab HIS RELUCTANT MATE: Bab 221 - Bab 230

JAREDI stared at Sterly without blinking. Kane... was dead. How could that be?I saw him a few hours earlier, and he even told me he would let me go. Why would he die?"Did you kill him?" I asked quietly. Sterly shook his head. "I didn't. I saw him dead when I got to the prison." He explained. My heart sank. I sat upright and lowered my eyes, unable to comprehend the feelings in my heart. If Kane was killed, didn't that mean I might be in danger as well?Nate might have killed him to silence him, but for Nate to be so cruel to his ally, then he would probably stop at nothing to claim my life. I placed a hand on my belly as fear appeared in my eyes. What was I supposed to do?Even if Sterly could capture him soon, what if he attacked before he was captured?I felt Sterly's cold palm rubbing my back, and I raised my head to look at him, trying hard to hide the fear within my eyes. I couldn't let Sterly stress himself out anymore. He'd been through a lot with me during the fe

JAREDMr. Nick volunteered to drive us home while Sterly, Stephen, Cindy, and I sat in the back. Shawn sat at the front. Stephen and Cindy continued chatting and laughing while I rested my head on Sterly's shoulder with my eyes half-closed, listening to the classical music being played. Sterly also had his eyes closed. "Honey, do you think I should call Mum, Dad, Drake, and Linda?""They would be glad to know about this or what do you think?" I asked with a gentle smile on my face. I could still remember how happy they were back then when they thought I was carrying Sterly's child. Although they hadn't mentioned the issue since then, I could tell they were eagerly looking forward to my pregnancy. Letting them know would surely make them happy. Sterly stroked my hair gently. "I don't think that's necessary." He mumbled. I raised my head to look at his face. "What do you mean?"Sterly had a helpless look in his eyes. "Drake messaged me just now that they are back in town." He

JARED"Good.""Good."An uproarious laughter rang in the room, breaking the peaceful excitement in the air. We all turned to see Father approaching Sterly with an almost silly smile on his face, and right beside him was Uncle Bright. The two pulled Sterly into a firm embrace, and my eyes couldn't help but twitch. The strength in the hug seemed so great. Would they break my husband?However, it seemed I wasn't the only one thinking this. Linda and Drake, my beautiful and powerful teammates, rushed forward and painstakingly separated my husband from them, rescuing him from being broken. Everyone laughed happily. Mother pulled her seat closer to me as she held my hand. "Don't worry. All the dishes here are very important for pregnant people.""You can eat as much as you want." She said as she filled my plate. A smile formed on my face as I picked up my spoon and began eating. Even though we've all eaten in the hospital before returning home, I still ate a lot of the food on the d

JAREDIt had been a bit over a month since we returned home from the hospital. I stood before the mirror, checking my fragile frame, and a low sigh escaped my throat. My fingers touched my neck, gently rubbing the love marks on them, but a smile couldn't be seen in my eyes. I felt exhausted from within. Though Omegas' pregnancy was a lot more comfortable than betas, and I didn't experience any loss in appetite or throw up as much, my sexual drive had become abnormal. Every day was like a heat, and I wanted to stay close to Sterly even more than ever before. His pheromone was the only thing that kept me sane. Sterly wasn't complaining. No, he even seemed happy to accompany me on this stressful journey, but it was still a bit embarrassing. My eyes dropped to my flat belly with no sign of pregnancy, and helplessness showed in my eyes. Regardless of whether one was a beta or an omega, pregnancy really wasn't an easy thing. I picked up the clothes that had already been prepared b

JAREDStephen and I returned to the class. The class immediately grew quiet. Most of my coursemates, no, all of them, looked at me with different expressions. Some even had their eyes fixed on my belly. A wry smile appeared on my face. It seemed the news had reached everyone. Well, Sterly posted a picture of me in the news anyway. I waved at the familiar ones and tugged Stephen to sit with me. As expected, none of them said a word to me. In a world where Alphas were known as the dominant gender, money was also a very important factor. Sterly was a powerful alpha, one at the top of the gender and also at the top of the food chain. He not only owned his own top company in the country, but he was also the most loved son of the Brighton family. His brother was an internationally renowned painter and probably the future heir to the Brighton Group. His sister was an internationally renowned designer whose single design could cause uproar in the world. His uncle was a great cha
