She didnt know anyone out there at all.
Hopefully, this would be the start of a new life for her and Freya.
She set about packing her room up and called reception to let them know she’d be checking out first thing in the morning.
Showered and frowned once more as her belly ache’d once again, put her hand on it and massaged it to try and ease the cramping, only to still as she thought about what she was actually doing, feeling, had been doing now for the past few hours.
Turned that shower off and dried off, really thought about it, as a doctor for pregnant she wolves would.
No, she told herself, they”d not once in eight years gotten pregnant, and Parker had knotted every time she was in heat.
It couldn’t be, she bit her lip, couldn’t hear anything or feel anything but that cramping sensation and her rubbing her belly all the time was indicative of a pups rapid growth.
Freya, are we with pup? she asked her wolf.
There was silence for a long quiet moment and then a huff of annoyance came from her beast Yes, you are.
She growled crankily.
Well aint that just dandy now, she muttered to herself and was doing the math inside her head instantly.
It had been three days since she left, he’d been gone for four days prior to that, had been in heat three days before he’d left.
If it was from the heat, he’d have smelled it, known she was pregnant when he got home, because she’d have been a week or more along.
So, it had to be from that morning before he’d left to go away, when he’d knotted her out of the blue before going off to that mating ball, had murmured down at her about having a pup would be nice.
So, he’d not picked it up because she was barely four days along, she’d only just figured it out.
She was now 7 days pregnant.
A full week along, what the hell did she do now? Yours.
Freya snarled Not theirs.
Technically created inside that mating alliance.
Not mated to him anymore, he has a new Mate.
We did not know until after the rejection happened.
The pup is yours, not his.
Freya stated firmly.
She thought about that very thing, her mating alliance, that pup clause, pups born in the Mate bond.
Well, she supposed this pup would be born outside of the mate bond, so that mating alliance wouldn’t come into play.
She nodded Ours.
She agreed with Freya.
No, yours, I did not once mate that man or his wolf.
Would never is not my mate.
Freya stated and rolled over inside her mind to close her eyes.
She’d been annoyed but now seemed uncaring about the fact that Bella was pregnant.
She walked out to the bedroom and sank down to think about it, put her hand on her still flat stomach and felt for the heartbeat.
Now she knew she was looking for it, and still couldn’t feel it.
She took a deep breath in to try and smell for it and then snorted, fully amused at herself, she wouldn’t smell any different to herself, only to others around her.
Force of habit she supposed and wondered what she should do about this little tid bit of news, guess it wasn’t the hotel food that had been making her tummy cramp.
She dressed and shook her head at herself, was a baby doctor, yet hadnt picked it up right away even though she knew all the signs of a pregnant she wolf.
But then again, she’d never looked for it for herself and why? Because Parker was always looking for it himself, she didnt need to because if she was pregnant, he’d tell her the moment he knew.
She didnt doubt that at all, he’d likely have been very excited about it.
But now they werent together, and she was trying to start her life over.
It seems fate didnt want her to be able to forget Parker Hartly.
Was now going to be bound to him by his child.
She huffed a little and here she was for the past few days thinking she was free and clear, not so much anymore.
Parker
He was marked and mated to Carina now, something he’d done to get over the pain he and Vex were still suffering from. Belladonnas rejection just would not leave them.
It hadn’t exactly been the right way to do it, and he knew that, but Carina had wanted to be marked and mated by him anyway.
So, he and Vex had allowed it, she was their actual Goddess Gifted, and they were both hoping that it would obliterate the pain of that rejection.
Stop them feeling like they were gutted from the inside out.
His meeting of Carina should have made them happy and wanted nothing more than reject his Chosen Mate.
But it had not, laying in his bed all night, knowing that she wasn’t across the hall, wasn’t even inside the pack, bothered him greatly.
Carina smelled nothing like Belladonna, who had this energetic scent that made him feel invigorated, she’d smelled like Lemon Zest and Ginger and with a hint of cracked pepper.
She’d smelled spicy to him, and he’d like it, always felt more alive smelling her.
Carina smelled sickly sweet to him, like cloves and cinnamon bark.
Her Mate scent was cardamom oil, like a Christmas cookie, he thought.
It had actually made him wrinkle his nose that first time she’d stood before him as his Mate.
He’d allowed that Goddess Gifted Mate bond to just take over, hadn’t fought it at all in the end, he could feel all the sparks of the mate bond between them, when touching her, even before he marked and mated her, not something he’d had with Belladonna.
He’d let Carina f ** k him furiously in her need to claim him as her Goddess Gifted, something she’d been denied since the night of the full moon, and then the two nights following that.
They”d had to stop overnight on the way back to the pack.
It was a long a drive, and he wouldn’t let her touch him while Belladonna was still in the pack.
Their mating alliance had stated she had to be gone from it.
He also didn’t want to mate someone new the same day he’d been rejected.
That to him was a bit wrong, even though Belladonna had told him to go and do it, that it would ease his pain.
He’d felt her sever from the pack and then him as her Alpha that night she left.
She’d rejected him as her mate inside his office but not as her Alpha, so she wouldn’t scent of a rogue until she was gone from the pack altogether.
Feeling that had hurt almost as much as being 20 rejected by her, he had clutche’d at his chest and had to really breathe through it.
He had not known when she was going to do it, just at some point after she found somewhere to stay was all she had told Kane.
It had hurt for nearly an hour, to lose her so completely, he was no longer her Mate or her Alpha either, she’d willingly left him and severed all ties with him.
