My mate was expecting a baby with a one night stand he had met at an Alpha conference three months ago Novel – I can’t believe my ears. Jenson and I have been friends since childhood. We started dating in high school. Found we were fated mates at 18 and married.
I have been his Luna for five years. There hasn’t been a time we hadn’t been each other’s best friend and then lovers. He was my person. How could you do this to the one you were supposed to love? Sitting behind the desk, my husband Alpha Jenson looked somewhat distraught, yet he still held his head high.
Pride is always so important to him. Apparently more important than me. Around the room sat his parents, his Beta Ben, Elder Roberts, Elder Brooks, Dr. Bridgit and the skank.
The newest pack member being accepted today. Her pregnant belly protruding under her halter top and mini skirt. I guess you could call her pretty with her blond hair and blue eyes. She appears to be about 25, but she just looks cheap and vulgar.
I sit here stoically, my stomach roiling, my face giving no indication, as Elder Brooks continued. “Luna, I realize this has come as a shock to you. And none of us here want to hurt you or replace you.
You are a wonderful Luna. But as you know, Alpha needs an heir and with you having been barren, this cruel twist of fate is actually a blessing in disguise.” Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Cruel twist of fate my @ss! How heartless could these people be? I had been ambushed this morning and dragged into this meeting only to learn that the love of my life, my partner, my fated soulmate, and my best friend had betrayed me.
He was expecting a baby with a one night stand he had met at an Alpha conference three months ago. And they considered it a blessing! He should have kept it in his pants! “Charlie, I love you and I am so sorry for this.” Jenson pleaded with me, “I never meant for this to happen at all. I guess I had too much to drink because I only vaguely even remember sleeping with her.
I don’t want to lose you and I don’t want a relationship with her. But, as everyone has pointed out, at the end of this mess, I will have an heir.” But what else will you have Jenson, dear? “Charlie, please. This is a little baby.” Alpha Jenson’s mother backed him up.
She has always been vocal about my not having had her any grandchildren yet. “We can all have room in our hearts for an innocent baby, can’t we? I am so excited to finally have a grandchild on the way.” she added almost giddily. Feeling as though she had kicked me in the gut. I felt as though I were silently watching a tennis match, my eyes darting back and forth to each one speaking.
What do you say to all that? I am utterly eviscerated. My heart, my stomach, all my organs feel as though they have been clawed from my body and are dangling loosely. While the vultures are picking at me. Am I not supposed to have feelings? How can they expect me to endure this? I know I am Luna and I have to be strong. This…this is unbelievably cruel. For the good of the pack? Can I? ”
