Hiding His Baby: The Alpha's Rejected Mate

IN THE NIGHT

The pain worsened. Athena just woke up from sleep just a few minutes ago from the pain on her leg and waist. She needed a hot water bag to massage her feet and waist. The wounds were getting healed back.

Now a hot bag should ease the cramps. She decided to go down and make a hot water bag ready. But could she walk alone?

She once again tried to call her wolf but didn’t get a reply. That made her worried and sad. What was wrong with her wolf? As far as what she heard from Suzanne, her mate’s bond with Dominic was retrieved back by Irene’s magic. Then why wasn’t her wolf back yet?

She knew that the moment she gets well, she is going to have a big fight with Suzanne. She saw that in her eyes. She saw how hard Suzanne was trying to keep calm just because she was sick.

Goddess help her!

And currently she doesn’t want to call Dominic or take help from him as she was staying in his mansion. Nathan and Justin dropped her here today a few hours ago. She didn’t know which room she was in. It was lavish and had a blackish interior design. She never came to the third floor. There wasn’t anyone else. So, she decided to do it alone. She gently got down the bed and took slow painful steps to the door.

She opened it and the moment she stepped ahead, the cramp made her yelp. But she suppressed it by biting her lips and walked till the stairs while bearing a lot of pain. It was midnight now. No one was around as Dominic doesn’t like to keep maids around, she was an exception and she wondered where Dominic was. Ace was sleeping in the room opposite to where she was peacefully.

The cramp intensified and she couldn’t bear it anymore. She didn’t realise when her feet slipped and she lost her grip from the ground. Her eyes went shut.

“Dominic!” She shouted out of instinct for help while waiting for the immense pain that was going to come from the hit.

“Careful!” He shouted and scooped her in arms and hugged her tightly while pressing her closer to his heart. He was scared.

Dominic had just returned from a long run. It was midnight but he wasn’t scared of anything other than now losing someone. But that’s not the topic here. When he just came to the mansion, the whole house was dark. And the first room he went to was downstairs, where Athena had been staying from the past few days.

He was a little shocked and angry thinking if she wasn’t there, did Nathan and Justin take her to any of their houses? His anger and restlessness intensified which wasn’t going to calm down until he went to her and saw her face.

That was what he was going to do. He went out of the room when her beautiful rosemary scent hit his nostrils, making his senses go numb. That’s when he realised that she was in his house only. He ran toward the stairs and his heart almost stopped beating when he saw the scene of her falling and her calling his name out in danger!
