Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott

Chapter 56

Prescott

It was hard to walk when | was feeling her pain and | was surprised to feel such deep soul-crunching pain as if someone had stabbed her heart with a silver knife.

“Are you insane? How could you do this to her in this condition?” Dad reprimanded me as soon as | was in front of his sight.

| didn’t understand what he was talking about but when Caleb returned soon after me with a pregnancy test in his hand, everything became clear.

The two vertical lines on the test showed that the pregnancy test was positive and a wide grin appeared on my face..

“I'm going to become a father,” | whispered to myself, unable to believe it. “Thank you, Moon Goddess. I’m going to become a Dad,” | howled in excitement. My wolf was wagging its tail in the back of my mind.

“Are you for real?” Dad threw me a suspicious glance. “Your wife was pregnant and your didn’t even know that.”

How dared she hide it from me? She would have to answer me. What on earth was she thinking when she decided to go back to her royal palace alone? | had heard that she- wolves had high mood swings during pregnancy but | would call it losing her mind rather than a mere mood swing.

“I'm sure she had reasons for hiding it from me. Perhaps she wanted to give me a surprise or tell me in a better way,” | shrugged, pretending that it was normal when blood was boiling at her stu pid action.

His expressions told me he didn’t buy it but | appreciated his silence. | paced outside. the OR, waiting for the doctors to come out.

“Don't worry. The baby will be fine,” Caleb tried to comfort me.

“I'm worried about her,” | told him, watching the light of OR eagerly.

The strong female Alphas couldn't produce babies that easily as the baby would be too strong for them to deliver. Many female Alphas died while giving birth to their babies. | didn’t want that to happen in my wife’s case.

| got so caught up in the emotions that it slipped my mind that her life was at risk.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“We can either save mother or baby,” Doctor bowed to me after telling me that.

“Can't you save both, please?” | pleaded with him, feeling helpless for the first time int my life. The tears pricked at the corners of my eyes as | felt the pain of my mate.

She was suffering through a great deal of pain, probably because of me.

“I'm sorry but | can’t. Please, tell me your decision quickly,” he urged, exhaling a gloomy sigh.

| quickly gained my composure back and told him firmly, “I want my wife alive at any cost or | will kill each one of you. She must be safe and alive. | can’t lose her.”

He seemed terror-struck and cowered a little before dashing back inside the OR

Camilla and Sheldon also reached there and witnessed how | chose my wife without even blinking. It was clear to me that | wanted Matilda more than our baby though | greedily wanted both of them. | would choose Matilda given a chance a million times over and over.

My wolf was agitated, hating me for letting another woman mark us though we were already marked. | couldn't think about Lola at that time. All | could think of was seeing my wife alive. Her captivating smile, alluring lilac eyes, and silky silver platinum blonde hair...

| couldn't wait to hold her in my arms again and kiss those plump lips again.

“Stop these crocodile’s tears. If you would have cared about her, she wouldn't be in the hospital bed, fighting between life and death,” Camilla accused me, making me feel more guilty.

“This is not the right time for this, honey,” her mate cooed, holding her in his embrace.

“I'm sorry,” | bowed to her and scurried toward the OR. | had had enough. | wanted to see her and be there for her. | couldn't wait outside for her to wake up. | needed to see her and since | was the Alpha, doctors would have to obey me.

“Alpha,” the doctors mumbled in unison, astonished to see me.

“You continue your work. | want her safe at any cost,” | warned them and stood beside my wife whose eyes were closed. Looking at her pale face, my heart filled with sorrow. Somehow, | was the reason behind all of this but why didn’t she tell me about her pregnancy?

It was clear that she had taken the test and she knew that she was pregnant. Why was she trying to hide it from me? Why was she running to her palace right after finding out about her pregnancy?

Something struck me as odd as | thought about it more. Was she really trying to

separate my child from me?

As the baby’s father, it was my right to be with my child no matter if she wanted it or

not.

“Her scars aren’t healing. It seems like the Luna is facing the internal wounds caused by...” The words remained in his mouth as he looked up at me. | could smell fear from him. He was intimidated by my presence and was hesitant to speak the fact.

| quirked my brow to indicate him to finish his sentence and he swallowed hard before

wering his head.

“As per my knowledge, if wounds aren’t healing, it might be because of two issues. Either her wolf is weak which is not the case as she is the Alpha Queen or...” he paused again which irritated me and made me want to kill him.

I let out a low growl. “Speak fast, doctor. My wife is suffering.”

“Or her fated mate is getting intimate with someone else. It might be marking or mating,” he sighed.

So she had found her second chance mate. Interesting. | almost rolled my eyes.

My wife had found her mate again and she was planning to leave me probably because to be with him. | didn’t expect her to like the fated mate s hit after what she went through but there she was. A stu pid she-wolf, after all.

Not only she was planning to hide my child, but she was deceiving me by not rejecting her do uchebag mate.

“What's baby’s condition?” | asked, not caring about her anymore. | regretted caring about her more than our pup.

| was so done with her. She wanted a divorce from me, right? | would happily give her a divorce and leave her to spend the rest of her life in remorse while | would live my happily ever after with Lola. She was the right choice. She deserved my love and being my Luna and wife..

“The bleeding has miraculously stopped and the baby seems surprisingly safe,” another doctor who was doing sonography told me.

The soft hum of the ultrasound machine seemed to echo in the room. | was in tears after seeing miniature limbs emerge on the screen. Seeing my baby moving perhaps his hand slightly, | felt the emotions swirling within me-a blend of awe, joy, and at profound sense of responsibility.

“Is that my baby?” | asked softly, staring at the screen unwaveringly.

“Yes, Alpha. Luna is six weeks pregnant so the baby is still growing inside her. You will be able to see his or her fingers and toes after 8 weeks,” he explained gently.

“But we need a healer to heal her wounds so she can recover soon,” the doctor suggested in apprehension. “If you don’t mind, can | go to the previous Luna Queen and ask her to heal her daughter? She is a blessed wolf, after all.”

“Matilda is a healer so why isn’t she healing on her own?” | counter-questioned and his face paled.

“I'm sorry, Alpha but | don’t know that myself. It might be due to her need for her fated mate,” his awkward smile betrayed a sense of dread.

| restrained the urge to slice his tongue for saying that but | controlled nodded my head in approval.

“Thank you for making me a father, Silver. Now, wake up. There are so many left things to finish,” | whispered in her car after placing a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Matilda Spencer, you will have to come back for our pup’s sake and | wasn’t done with you yet. My wife wanted to sn atch my pup away from me but she wasn’t aware of the things | was planning to do to her.
