All Chapters of THE ORACLE IS MY MATE: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Sorrel’s POV“The goddess has favored you, Luna,” Aaron said with a bright smile. I looked over the faces present and tried as much as possible to keep my face neutral, to not betray any emotions.When I passed out earlier, the royal physician was summoned and now after poking inside my body and performing some tests, he was beaming at meI didn’t like him smiling at me.“What is it?” I asked, my breath caught in my throat.It was as if a wet sheet was hovering over the roof of my room, so wet and filled with water, waiting to be dropped.“You are pregnant.”The world collapsed behind me and scattered into nothing. A long piercing sound went through my ear in a parallel pattern, deafening me.“What?” I heard myself speak.“You are pregnant Luna.”My stomach twisted, just as I lunged forward, I puked on the bed. “Get the servants!” “Get the maids!”‘Pregnant. Pregnant. I, Sorrel of the Bluemoon pack, was pregnant, for Alpha Nathaniel!”Another wave of nausea came and out it went. Th

Oracle’s POVThe Luna’s mother walked in and I left the room. I had the same turmoil as I had yesterday while sitting by her bead post as she slept. The inner fire in my chest and the consuming one around my ribs. As before it was scorching hot, and still I did not want to leave.Within me, I knew I should have left; there was no need to stay with her. I should be back in my room, burning candles and thanking the moon goddess for her generosity in letting the Luna be with child.Yet the desire to return to my duty never came.It was as if the mind and the heart wanted two separate things. The mere thought of honoring my service was displeasing—no bitter—the mere thought of returning to my duty was bitter in my tongue.As it was known, I did not leave. I sat still, watching as she slept. Calm, ethereal, and at ease.I loved that she was at ease, earlier she had looked ready to shatter.She should be happy that she was finally with the heir, the council would accept her more now than

Sorrel’s POVMy mother was staring at me, trying to smile and not be miserable because I knew she was. Her eyes were hollow. “You should rest,” I said to her. “You look tired.”“It’s because I haven’t slept. My baby is pregnant.” Her eyes dropped to my stomach. “It’s a little hard to believe.”It was hard for me to believe as well.“Then you sleep.”Her face contorted, tightening. “When I sleep I see your father.”She took my hands and squeezed them. “Can I not leave? You have your maids and your cheerful personal servants. Hmm?”I twisted from her grasp, smoothing my dress. “I need you mother. I know you love father so much, but I need you. Hmm.”The reason I didn’t allow her to leave was because of Nathaniel. For some stupid reason, he wanted my mother to remain here. He had specifically said if she left she would meet her imminent end.I loathed my pregnancy, I loathed the seed sprouting inside of me. I hated it with everything I was made of.However, I liked to think the baby was

Abigeal’s POVI stood outside Sorrel’s room. I heard she was pregnant and wasn’t that the world’s biggest joke and cruelty? Pregnant for Nathaniel was being pregnant for a demon.I’ve stalled from seeing her since I heard the news. At first I couldn’t believe it but it was all that filled the pack house. They were rejoicing for the Luna’s pregnancy, sharing the supposedly good news. It got too much and I had to visit her.I rapped on the door, then pushed it open and walked inside. She was by the window, staring out. Upon my appearance, she turned and looked at me.“If it isn’t the sister-in-law that tried to keep me from having an heir.” Her tone was flat and her smile was dry as well. “What are you doing here, Abigeal? Come to congratulate me?”She snickered. “The whole pack is rejoicing for it, I guess it is good news after all. Do you think his child will be the one to end him?”When she ran out of dry jokes to tell, she faced me silently. The silence carrying all the weight of th

Sorrel’s POVI cut down a chicken breast and put it in my mouth. I did not see the reason I should be eating this much, but it was the pack house I guess.As I was chewing absentmindedly, thinking of Kaine, pain shot up in my abdomen that caused me to stop eating. It was abrupt and piercing, completely out of nowhere that made my wince.I dropped my cutleries and listened for the pain again and nothing came. I stayed that way for quite some time and nothing came.Usually, I loved eating inside my room, it was just me and the food with no disturbance. Here, I was more likely to be summoned, servants could come up to me and speak to me, but inside my room, I was free from them.However, staying inside that room was making me depressed. I thought of nothing but the baby in me. How it came about.I looked around and I saw Nathaniel claiming me unprecedentedly, over and over again.And because I used to stare at the ceiling when it took place, the ceiling was a constant reminder even when
