Hiding His Baby: The Alpha's Rejected Mate

“You have a son?” The cold man’s voice stopped Athena from where she was. Her heart almost stopped breathing and she got numb.

That’s a voice she will never forget. That’s the voice which haunts her still and instigates a new layer of hatred everytime she remembers it.

“Alpha Dominic, I’m trying to take care of this lady, but it seems like she is recovering slower than normal werewolves. Her bleeding is not stopping.” The nurse said in a professional and respectful tone as he entered the room..

“What do you mean by she is recovering slowly?” He asked in a cold tone while not moving his eyes from Athena who was glaring at him at that moment.

“That’s not your business.” Athena snapped and the nurse let out a gasp. She frowned at Athena in shock and dislike.

“Miss, please be respectful toward our Alpha. He is the one who saved your life from-…” The nurse was cut off by her alpha’s command.

“Leave us alone.”

The nurse looked between them in confusion before nodding at Dominic and leaving the room.

Now it was only both of them present in the room. Nerve-wracking silence filled the room as they both kept looking into each other’s eyes. Both of them had a storm going on in their eyes, ready to destroy something or… someone.

But the moment Dominic took a step toward her, Athena’s distance broke. She moved her eyes away from him with a blank look on her face. There was no sign of acknowledgement in her facial features.

Athena looked down at her stomach which stopped bleeding suddenly. But she didn’t have time to worry about that. She had to find her son and with a new found determination, she got up from the bed. She started to walk toward the door to leave while completely ignoring Dominic. She didn’t only ignore him but a whole lot of things which were going on inside her head and… chest.

She only took a few steps toward the door when she felt him grip her right upper arm tightly before pulling her behind. Her legs bumped with the bed and she sat back on the bed.

She closed her eyes and took a deep and frustrating breath to get control over herself. Then she opened her eyes and met his dark eyes. He was havouring over her with his grip still on her arm. There was only a few inches gap between their faces and they glared into each other. His breath was fanning her face as he was breathing hard. It looked like he was fighting a battle as well to get control over something.

“Leave my hand.” She said in a strong tone as she tried to yank her hand back. But that made him tighten his grip, making her flinch.

“What did you say to that nurse when I entered the room?” He asked in a cold tone, cold enough to cut glass.

“It’s none of your business. Leave my hand.” She snapped while glaring at Dominic.

“You are in my pack. So, it is my business as long as you are here.” He snapped back.
