Pregnant And Rejected

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 48

Chapter 48

Bastien‘s POV

“You‘re doing this,” Selene accuses wretchedly, “Your wolf is doing this.”

What is she talking about? I demand of Axel.

She‘s near her mate. Her instinct is to change. It has to happen eventually her wolf has never been free.

I swear under my breath. I know he‘s right, but the timing is terrible. I remember my first shift vividly all wolves do. It‘s a horrible process, requiring almost every bone in the body to break and reform, slow and agonizing. Thankfully shifting gets easier and easier until it‘s effortless, but there‘s no way to make the first few any easier. You just have to suffer through.

“It isn‘t like that sweetheart. It‘s just your time.” I explain apologetically. I gather up Selene and deposit her on the sofa, moaning and writhing, before moving toward the bed to retrieve Lila.

Aiden! I call through our mental link.

He appears almost instantly, and I carry Lila to him, “Selene is about to shift, I need you to take the pup until it‘s over.”

“What are you doing?“ Selene snarls, trying to rise from the couch and crumpling, “you‘re not taking her anywhere!”

Handing off Lila, I return to my mate, pulling her up and speaking softly and urgently in her ear, “Easy Selene, he‘ll take care of her.”

“No!” She insists, a mother wolf in full defense mode, “you can‘t have her, she‘s mine!”

“Do you really want her to see this?” I demand sternly, “She‘ll be terrified.”

Selene‘s brow furrows, and I can see the gears in her head spinning with confusion, emotion warring with instinct. “Don‘t take her from me.” She finally begs, tears spilling from her eyelashes.

“No one is taking her from you, baby.” I vow, “You have my word, they‘re just going to get her someplace safe while you shift. I‘ll take you straight to her in the morning.”

“Let me hug her goodbye,” Selene requests pitifully.

Inod to Aiden, and he returns Lila to her mother‘s arms for a tearful cuddle before removing her again and leaving Selene and I alone in the safehouse.

My mate curls up into a little ball, rocking herself back and forth and clamping her eyes shut. “How long is it going to take?”
