Chapter 2
“Fine. I’ll get you some next time. I’m going to shower.” With barely contained irritation, he said this calmly before walking out of our bedroom.
Just then, Dominic’s phone buzzed. I glanced at the caller ID and felt sick seeing how brazenly he’d saved his mistress’s contact as ‘My Darling‘.
I picked up his phone, surprised to find it unlocked with an ultrasound image as the background.
If Victoria hadn’t sent me that same image earlier, I might have assumed it was mine and never questioned Dominic.
I checked their message history.
“Baby, I heard pregnant she–wolves crave moonberries, so I’ve asked Marcus to bring some from the sacred grove. I’ll bring them to you later.”
“Dom… won’t your Beta be suspicious?”
“Why would he be? He’ll assume they’re for Reyna.”
“So will you give her half? I thought I was your only love.”
“Of course not. She’s too picky and wasting my efforts on her is pointless. You’re my true love, my only love.”
“I would have rejected her already, but she once miscarried and fell into depression, making the pack pity her. She became so dependent on me that leaving then would have made you look bad. That’s the only reason I kept her.”
“You’re the best Dom, but I’m lonely now and craving some fresh takeout.”
“Alright love, I’ll pick something up for you.”
Chapter 2
I bit my lip hard to hold back my sobs. My pups had never meant anything to Dominic beyond being stepping stones to becoming the most powerful Alpha.
I quickly took screenshots of their conversations and surprised to discover an attached
document sent to Victoria.
“River Moon Manor”
Rage consumed me when I realized the property I’d inherited from my parents had been given to Victoria.
Earlier, Dominic had claimed the pack was facing financial troubles and asked me to sell my inheritance to help. Like a fool, I’d trusted him with everything.
Only for it to end up in his mistress’s hands.
My body trembled, and sensing my distress, my unborn pup
kicked restlessly.
I documented everything – screenshots of messages, evidence from restaurants and luxury stores showing deliveries to my family estate now occupied by Victoria.
Then I carefully placed the phone back and lay down, pulling the blanket over my shaking body as I tried to muffle my sobs.
Soon Dominic’s footsteps approached as he returned and picked up his phone, smiling
softly at Victoria’s messages.
He sat beside me, his palm gently caressing my swollen belly.
“Love, Beta Marcus and I need to track some rogues tonight. I won’t be back until
tomorrow.”
When he stood to leave, I desperately grabbed his arm with what little strength I had left.
“I’ve waited for you all day. Can’t you stay just tonight?” I wanted to deny that my childhood mate, my true pair, had betrayed our sacred bond. I wanted to forget this nightmare and try again for our pup’s sake.
Chapter 2
Dominic looked at my broken expression and noticed my tears, making him gently wipe them away with guilt in his eyes.
He couldn’t even meet my gaze.
“I… what is it, love-” Just then his phone chimed with a notification and his expression
changed.
Darling, I can’t put you above the pack. Please understand..I’ll ask your mother to come. watch over you.”
When I didn’t respond, he looked at my face only to see me staring at him like he was a
stranger.
“Reyna-”
“Just go then.” Even the last chance I’d given him was discarded like trash.
I turned away without another word, making him freeze for a moment before he decided to
leave.
As soon as he was gone, I dragged myself out of the house and called a taxi.
“To River Moon Manor,” I told the driver.
When we parked outside the estate, Dominic’s car was already there. I watched my mate glance around nervously before pressing the doorbell.
I stroked my belly as it churned painfully, making me gasp. Still, I raised my phone to record as the door opened and Victoria rushed into Dominic’s arms. He held her close before kissing her deeply.
My vision blurred with tears as I watched my mate kneel lovingly before his mistress to caress her stomach.
The pain in my womb intensified but I sat frozen in the car, unable to speak through the
shock.
Chapter 2
Soon Dominic led Victoria out, carefully helping her into his car. Her delighted laughter carried through the night air.
I gasped as another wave of pain hit, but instead of panicking, I took deep breaths.
“Sir, can you follow them? I think they’re heading to the hospital.” The driver glanced at me with understanding and quickly pulled out after them, even helping me inside when we reached the entrance.
“Ma’am, bringing new life into this world is precious. Being healthy and happy is more important than staying with someone who would so shamelessly abandon his wife and children. Please take care of yourself first.” The elderly driver had seen many seasons pass and when he reassured me, I nodded gratefully.
Yes, I must live for my baby.
“Don’t worry sir. That man means nothing to me anymore.”
