Semua Bab The Alpha Delayed My Labor After I Rejected Him: Bab 1 - Bab 9

The Alpha, so devoted in the eyes of the pack, had abandoned his own Luna in the middle of labor to be with another she-wolf.All I could see was his retreating back, a final, resolute rejection.A tearing pain ripped through my abdomen, and I collapsed onto the cold stone floor.My water broke in a gush, rushing down my thighs and forming a dark, alarming pool on the stone floor.I lifted a trembling hand, calling out weakly to the young Omega maid nearby."Lily... get me to the hospital... please..."Lily stared at me in terror. Her wolf's instinct screamed at her to help her Luna, but the Alpha's oppressive aura kept her rooted to the spot."Luna, the Alpha gave a direct order... I have to wait for his return. I can't defy the Alpha...""You can't?" I clutched my stomach, my voice shaking with pain."If anything happens to me or the Alpha's heir, Kael will have your head. Take me now!"The fear of the Luna actually coming to harm seemed to jolt Lily into action. Her expression tur

I held my breath, staring at the screen, wondering what new trick this venomous she-wolf had up her sleeve."An ancient Bloodline Protection Ritual," Chole said, her voice soft, but the words sent a chill down my spine."It's a lost art, taught to me by a pack elder. It's used to protect a precious Alpha bloodline."Martha immediately moved closer to the screen, her eyes gleaming with a fanatical light.I used all my strength to try and stop them, but I could only manage weak, muffled groans.The wolfsbane had all but paralyzed me, leaving me to watch helplessly as this wicked plot unfolded."You'll need to find a Binding Stone. It's a sacred object gifted by the Moon Goddess.""Place the stone on Elara's abdomen and chant the ancient words. It will delay her labor until Kael can get back."She deliberately drew out her words, her voice laced with malice. "You could even perform a blood sacrifice. Use whatever dark arts are necessary to keep her and the pup alive until the Alpha return

A roar, heavy with an Alpha's authority, echoed from outside the door. It was Kael's mother, Lyra.The air inside the room instantly froze. All the pack members, crushed by the weight of an Alpha's presence, instinctively lowered their heads.Martha stood frozen, her face ashen. Her blood-soaked hands made her look like a killer caught red-handed.Lyra had guided Kael to become the Alpha he was today. In the entire pack, she was the only one who dared to directly challenge Kael's authority.The scent of blood in the room put Lyra on high alert. Her wolf screamed that this was far from simple.Lyra's golden wolf eyes swept across the room, taking in the cloying scent of black magic, the raw, bloody burn on my abdomen from the Binding Stone, the shocking amount of blood soaking the bed, and the cursed object still radiating evil.The Alpha heir was slipping away in the blood pooling between my legs.Lyra's face went deathly pale. She stumbled, grabbing the doorframe for support, her v

I was unconscious in the pack hospital, but through our mate bond, I could vaguely sense the world outside.Kael had finally arrived at the pack hospital.He was so distraught that his wolf was on the verge of breaking free."Where is Elara?" he roared at the front desk nurse."The emergency room!" The nurse trembled under the weight of his Alpha's authority.He was about to charge toward the ER when a figure blocked his path.It was his mother, Lyra."You have the nerve to show your face here?" Lyra's voice was chillingly furious."Mother, how is Elara? And our pup?" Kael's voice trembled.SLAP!A sharp slap landed squarely on his face."You want to know what happened to your destined mate and your heir?""Linus injected her with wolfsbane to stop her labor! Martha forced it down her throat like she was an enemy! And Blake ordered her to be restrained with sedatives!""And it was all because of your command!""I didn't... I didn't know. I never gave that order..." Kael tried to defend

As Chole's banished screams faded into the distance, Kael finally returned to my bedside.He knelt beside the bed, pressing my cold hand to his face, all traces of his Alpha authority gone."Elara, I've avenged you. Chole will never appear again. She's been branded as a rogue, forbidden from ever entering any pack lands for all time.""Elara, I know you can hear me." His voice was hoarse. "It was all my fault. I'm the one who killed our pup.""Elara, wake up. I can't lose you.""I know I don't deserve it, but please, give me a chance..."His voice broke, his former pride shattered."I've been lying to myself for years, pretending I hated you. The truth is, I never stopped loving you. From the moment you rejected me, I've been madly in love with you."I felt a dampness at the corner of my eye as tears began to fall uncontrollably.So many times, I had wanted to tell him that my rejection all those years ago was not of my own free will.I had known for a long time that the Silver Moon Pa
