I Miscarried While My Alpha Celebrates His Mistress's Baby

During a dangerous blizzard, Alpha Xavier killed our child due to his indifference and sheer stupidity.

I was out late, tending to the orphaned pups in the pack like every other Luna should. It was one of the core responsibilities I had while Xavier, attended pack meetings and watched over the training of the warriors of our pack.

Earlier, the both of us worked in sync, but these past few months things had changed drastically.

The vibration from my phone put an end to my thoughts and I was quick to answer it. “I’ll be over to pick you up soon, Stella. Just wait up for me. I can't have you out alone in this snowstorm,” I heard Xavier’s baritone voice through the small device and I couldn't help the ripples of hope that ran through my body.

I hadn't heard his voice in a week before I heard this call.

“Sure, I’ll just be here with the pups,” I answered before the call ended.

Feeling like the relationship between Xavier and I still had a bit of hope, I put my phone away and sat in the hallway of the orphanage, waiting for my mate to make an appearance, but of course, he never did.

Time and time again, staff that passed by asked if I needed anything due to the fact that I was three months pregnant and my belly had already begun to show, but each time I shook my head no. “Alpha Xavier will be here soon. Don't worry, my baby and I will be okay,” I would say to each person who approached me, but soon enough, even I began to get tired of the words that escaped my lips.

He wasn't coming.

I could feel that he wasn't coming.

As the moon goddess would have it, after waiting for about four hours alone in the hallway, I received a text from Xavier.

Plans changed. Don’t wait up for me and just get a cab.

The hope I had earlier about our relationship began to wither and its place was an annoyance accompanied by some frustration that had been brewing for quite a while now. This wasn't the first, second, or even tenth time that Xavier had stood me up, and a feeling that it wouldn't be the last.

Rather than brood in a corner for any longer, I stepped out to look for a cab and it seemed as though all the cab drivers had gone on a break.

The loud breeze made it quite difficult to hear anything and the snow made it difficult to see. Goosebumps covered my skin as I walked around the streets, and the more I walked, the more I felt like I should have worn more appropriate clothes and shoes for the weather.

Terrified, I midlinked Xavier again and again.

“I can't find any cabs.”

“The snowstorm is starting to look really bad.”

“Xavier, I need you.”

But he never answered and when my panic traveled to new heights, I took out my phone and called as many times as I could, but he also never answered.

Regret sank hard into my skin at my choice of footwear when the grounds suddenly felt wetter than ever and I ended up slipping.

I fell to the floor with a scream and a toe-curling pain ran up my spine. I tried to get up again, but I fell hopelessly to the floor, with more pain attacking me and this time aiming for my swollen belly. My skin grew wet with sweat and my breathing grew heavier.

It was only when spots started to fill my vision that I realized that I could be losing my baby and so, with the last bit of energy I had left, I called an ambulance before I finally gave into the darkness.

When I came to, I found myself in a hospital bed with one of the best healers in the pack by my side. Seeing him by my side, I felt a small assurance that both my child were okay. With a roaring headache, I said, “Thank you for saving us, healer.”

The assurance I felt began to fade when a frown formed on the healer’s face as she shook his head. “I’m sorry Luna, but you lost the baby.”

If I thought that I had felt pain before then I was terribly wrong. Tears wet my cheeks and I could hear my wolf continuously howling in my head.

The first person my mind ran to in my time of grief was Xavier and so I was quick to mindlink him. “Xavier, I need you. Where are you?”

And just like before, I got no reply from him.

Wondering if Xavier had at least left a text for me in my time of absence, I rushed to pick up my phone and my heart fell to the pits of my belly when I saw nothing from him.

I would have dropped my phone immediately if I had known that holding it for any longer would have caused pain like no other, but I didn't.

My eyes just happened to glance at a story update from Quinn, one of the daughters of the elders of the pack where I saw her post.

Thank you, Alpha Xavier, for saving me last night. Both my baby and I are doing great.

And attached to it just so happened to be a positive pregnancy test.
