The Silent Alpha

***Natalia*** 

Four Years Ago....

Up until this morning, my life had been quite simple.I was the Alpha'’s human mate.I was his Luna.I was his wife.

And then, in a blink of an eye, I was nothing...

A surge of pain ripples from my abdomen as I wait for the doctor to return with my test results.I've been getting these pains a lot recently and they are starting to freak me out.

Doctor Lila said it was all in my head, that I was simply putting too much pressure on myself to get pregnant.She couldn't have been more wrong.

I grip the edge of the table, whimpering to myself as I let the pain roll through on its own.

The walls feel as though they are closing in on me at the thought of receiving another negative test result.

Christian and I had been trying for several months now and I could feel it driving a wedge between us.

He was colder, distant.

I knew how much he wanted a son and it hurt to know I was failing so miserably to make him happy.

The door swings open and I nearly fall off the table from the fright sanitizer on her hands as she settles down on her chair.I could hear my heart pounding against my ribcage at an unnatural speed as I wait for her to speak.

"Just breathe, Luna," she smiles, inhaling slowly with me and reaching for my hands.

My hands were trembling but I manage to calm down.

Doctor Lila's smile deepens.

"Congratulations, Luna," she says, placing her hand on my tummy.

"You're carrying our little Alpha in there." My heart skips a beat as I process the news. I'm pregnant! Oh my gosh, I'm pregnant! 

""H-how far along?" I whisper, barely able to string together a sentence from holding back the sob in my throat.

"Well, let's find out, shall we?" she smiles, pulling the ultrasound machine out and squirting cold gel on my belly.

Butterflies dance in my stomach as I stare at the screen, unable to read the images but hoping somewhere in that black and white mess my little Alpha would show up.

"Well, I'd say from the looks of it, about four weeks, which means we have to start your prep immediately, Luna," she says sternly, handing me some documents.

"A werewolf pregnancy is very dangerous for a human.We'll have to take extra precautions." 

She wipes the gel off my stomach and gives me a crash course on rub my belly the entire ride home, still on cloud nine from the news.I couldn't wait to tell Christian.

He was going to be so happy about this.

As I pull up to the pack house, the pain once again returns and I sit still in the car for a minute to let it pass, clenching my teeth together to keep from screaming.

Slowly, I drag myself out of the car and through the front door of the house.

I'm usually met with several omegas eager to take my things, but the house was eerily quiet and empty.I don't have time to question it when a burning sensation spreads across my chest, making every breath I take unbearable.I couldn't scream even if I wanted to, my lungs on fire.I climb up the stairs to the second floor, looking forward to lying down and resting.

My every step is more difficult than the last as the pain intensifies, a thousand tiny needles piercing through my stomach.

From where I stood at the top of the stairs, I could see the door to my room slightly cracked open, a strange muffled sound coming from within.

As linch closer, an unmistakable scene unfolds before me, my blood boiling at the sight.

Peeking through the door, I see my sister, Vanessa, riding my husband, a look of sheer delight on the contorted features of her face.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Christian!" She moans, eagerly bouncing up and down his shaft moves her up and down his c**k.

"f**k!" she whimpers, bouncing frantically.

"Please!" she begs.

"I'll give you the pup you deserve.I'll be your Luna."
