PREGNANT AFTER ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THE LYCAN KING のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

"I don't have any cash," I said, my voice shaking in the quiet space.The leader smirked and held his hand out. "Then give me the bag."I took a step back and shook my head. "No. Just leave me alone."The man did not hesitate.He stepped forward, pulled his arm back, and punched me hard right in the stomach.The air left my lungs in a sharp gasp.Pain rushed through my middle, and my knees buckled instantly.I fell forward and hit the pavement hard.Before they could grab me, I pulled my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms tight around my stomach.I curled into a tight ball to protect my unborn babies from the attack.A heavy boot kicked my shoulder, knocking my head toward the asphalt.Another kick landed right in the middle of my back.I squeezed my eyes shut and braced myself for the next hit.I was terrified that I was going to lose my child right here in this dirty alley."Grab his coat!" one of the men yelled.Rough hands pulled at my collar, but I refused to uncurl my body

"Do you have a true mate in your world, Ren?"The quiet bedroom felt so incredibly small.Jett sat up in his bed and waited for my answer.He watched me with wide, hopeful eyes, and my inner wolf pushed hard against my ribs.My instincts screamed at me to claim him right now.I wanted to crawl onto the mattress and pull him into my arms.I wanted to tell him that he belonged to me.I wanted to promise him that I would never let anyone hurt him again.But a cold, terrifying reality crashed over my mind before I could even open my mouth.My world was violent and dangerous.The pack elders were ruthless men who followed ancient rules.They hated humans, and they expected their Alpha to marry a pureblood female to secure our future.They enforced the pureblood laws with brutal violence.They already threatened Jett's life over a simple phone call just because Rosalie felt insulted at the office.If I told Jett the truth tonight, I would paint a massive target right on his back.The counci

The quiet bedroom felt empty after he left.I sat on the edge of the mattress and stared at the closed door.His words echoed in my head, drawing a thick, permanent line between us.He was a powerful Alpha, and I was just a weak secretary.I pressed my hands flat against my stomach.The warm skin grounded me.I took a deep breath and forced the tears back down my throat.I could not afford to cry over a man who belonged to someone else.I had to focus on my babies.They were the only family I had left, and I was going to protect them.Three long weeks went by at a painful pace.We fell back into a strict, tense routine at the office.Knowing his impossible secret completely changed how I saw everything he did.When he caught a falling coffee mug before it even splashed on the floor, I knew exactly why he was so fast.When he heard Brenda complaining down the hall with his office door shut, I knew it was his sharp hearing.He was a werewolf.It made sense now, but knowing his secret di

I locked the bathroom door and slid the deadbolt into place.The executive washroom was completely empty.I grabbed the hem of my thick gray sweater and pulled it over my head.The cold air hit my damp skin.I let out a long sigh of relief and tossed the heavy wool onto the edge of the sink.I turned to face the large mirror over the counter.It was the middle of my fourth month.My stomach was undeniably round now.The tight curve pushed out against my thin white undershirt, changing the entire shape of my body.I rested both hands over my lower belly and rubbed my thumb over the fabric.A sudden, sharp flutter tapped against my palm.I gasped and looked down.The baby was kicking.It happened a lot more often these days.They were getting stronger.Sometimes it felt like a tiny bubble popping, and other times it was a distinct, solid push against my skin.I pressed my fingers gently against the exact spot where the kick landed.A second kick answered my touch just a moment later.A

I paced across the thick carpet in my private office.My boots made heavy thuds against the floorboards.My inner wolf was pacing right along with me, scratching at my ribs and making my skin run hot.Enzo sat in the chair across from my desk.He watched me walk back and forth.His arms were crossed tightly over his chest, and his jaw was locked hard."You cannot keep ignoring them, Ren," Enzo said, his voice hard. "The council elders are not going to wait forever."I turned around and walked back toward the large window behind my desk.I looked out at the bright city skyline, trying to control the fierce anger burning in my blood."I told you to handle the council calls today," I replied without turning around."I did handle them," Enzo shot back. "I spent an hour making excuses for you on the phone. I told them you were busy with human corporate accounts."He stood up, the legs of his chair scraping loudly against the floor."But they do not care about the human business," Enzo cont
