7. For The Baby

AURELIA

I lay in bed... in agony.

My eyes were swollen and my body burning from the intense and unbearable pain that | had to endure all

through the night. It was a new day - the day Larisa would be crowned Luna of the Dark Moon pack.

The day | would be dethroned and publicly insulted. Perhaps | should be out there fighting for my title and my

mate but | was still suffering from all she and Alpha Raiden spent the night doing. I felt it all this time.

Maybe it was because Larisa already toldabout their steamy moments, | couldn't tell but I felt the effect of

every thrust, touch, and kiss that my mate pleased Larisa with over the night.

For sreason, the bond carried Alpha Raiden's betrayal to me.

I lay in bed lifelessly.

"Please take my soul now, Moon Goddess. Letdie now. | can't take this anymore." | thought to myself, hoping

that the moon goddess would hear my internal cry as | couldn't part my lips to speak. | just wanted to die.

If | died, everyone would get their happy ending.

Everyone except me, unfortunately.

Slowly, | closed my eyes, praying for my soul to be snatched. There was nothing else forto live for. For the

past three years, | had been living for my betrayal of a mate. | had lived for the spack that had cto stab

All of a sudden, | heard a knock on the door of the sroom | had been locked in for many days. | didn't bother

to move an inch because that would not only causepain but also lift my hope. Plus, the door could only be

opened from outside with a key that | knew Alpha Raiden wouldn't give just anyone.

It was best to keep my eyes closed and wait for the moment | would stop breathing-

"Relia.." The familiar nechoed.

My breath hitched because there was only one person who calledthat and hearing that person so close

broke my already shattered heart. Not to mention the fact that my head ached as another knock cfrom the

door.

"Relia, are you in there?" Dakota's old shaky voice cagain.

| whimpered in response, unable to form a single word. | wanted to tell her to leave because she shouldn't see

Dakota was the only person in this big pack that genuinely cared about me. While others pretended to care,

Dakota really loved me. Dakota was the oldest doctor in the pack and she foundwhen | was a baby, raised

"Answer me, stubborn child." Dakota's shaky voice cagain.

| knew it was only a matter of tbefore her old nose perceived my stench, agony, and will to die and that

killedeven faster than the pain my mate inflicted onby sleeping with another woman without breaking

off our useless mate bond. Then, | heard clicking sounds that madeknow that Dakota was picking the locks

of the door like srebellious teenager. | found my voice and muttered as loud as my weak lungs could allow,

"Go away, Dakota."

"I brought you food as no one else seems to care if you live or die." Dakota voiced adamantly. She succeeded in

picking the locks to my dismay. Although my back was to the door, | could tell her jaw dropped to the floor when

she saw the state | was in. "Dear me! Look at you, Relia..."

"Pl-please. Leave. | don't want you to seelike this, Dakota." | cried my eyes out despite the sharp ring in my

head.

Dakota abruptly responded, "I'm not leaving you to die while they all feast out there."

"But | want to die. | don't want food. | don't need you here." | cried louder, holding my aching head with my eyes

still closed.

| felt Dakota's presence before me, her warmth embracing my soul even though she made my burning body

hotter.

"I want to die, Dakota..." | whispered still in tears.

My eyes fluttered open and they met with Dakota's dark teary eyes.

"How can you say that to me, Relia? Death isn't what your mother wanted for you in her dying moment. She

askedto make sure you lived." Dakota knelt beside the bed, bringing her wet face close to mine.

Dakota was the only person | knew who saw and spoke to my mom before she gave up the ghost. According to

Dakota, my mom was fighting to live when they met in the woods but she died a few minutes after birthing and

naming me.

"What am | supposed to live for, Dakota?" | whimpered, reminding her that | no longer had a mate and that |

would eventually die if Alpha Raiden kept sleeping with Larisa...

Dakota sighed, holding my gaze and my hands. Her eyes scanned my body as she inhaled deeply before

announcing, "I think you will be relieved to hear that you have plenty to live for, Aurelia."

| was about to tell Dakota to give up and stop trying to change my mind, but she dropped a bomb that shook the

foundation of my life, "You will live for the baby in your womb, Aurelia just like your mother lived on for you to be

born into this world."

| blinked rapidly, my heart racing as | inhaled sharply. "B-baby I-in th-the wo-" | stuttered, shocked and trapped in

a state of dilemma.

"Yes, Relia. | smelt it on you the minute | stepped into this room. It's a shthat your mate, the father of this

child, is too shallow-minded to sense his growing child." Dakota hissed when she spoke of Alpha Raiden. "He

might be blinded by rage but that doesn't change the fact that you are pregnant, Aurelia and you will live on for

the sake of that child."

"I'm pregnant,” | whispered, tasting those words on my tongue. "I'm going to be a mother..."

An unknown feeling began to spread from the death of my shattered heart and for a minute, | forgot that | was

supposed to be in pain and miserable.

Dakota confirmed, smiling at me, "Yes, my child. You're going to be a mother."

And | smiled back, happiness blooming in my dark miserable soul.
