Chapter 1
Evelynne Milton.
Love is meant to be betrayed, not cherished.
Perhaps if I had lived my life believing those lines, then I would have gotten the chance to twist my
fate.
མ% 50%;
But I chose to blindly and dumbly walk down the path of no return, because I believed that as long as I’m loyal, devoted and submissive, then there should be no reason at all why Desmond would ever decide to leave me.
I won, cause at least he did stay with me, but I had a greater loss cause right from the day we said our vows; the day he marked me and claimed me as his was still the same day I caught him sleeping with my best friend.
I can vividly still recall the pain I felt as my heart shattered into a million pieces and the pain from the mate bond enveloped my whole existence- deeply etching itself into my soul that I could barely breathe, my vision became clouded with tears that I could hardly see–But rather than confronting them, I chose to ignore their actions, turning around and closing the door the way I met it.
Shutting the door on the truth and trapping myself in a prison of denial.
With the hopes that one day, they’ll come clean to me, and maybe I would have forgiven them if they did… I waited in silence and mockery like a fool that I am, and prayed they feel an inch of regret and remorse, but they never did.
Their actions continued behind my back, and I became a laughing stock for the pack. Gabriella began spending time visiting me in my husband’s house.
Not to check up on me, but to fuck my husband behind my back.
And after everything, she still always had the audacity to smile in front of me. When Desmond and I began having issues in our marriage, she was always there to tell me things will be better and that I shouldn’t leave Desmond, rather I should stay.
For months, days and up until now, the reason she wanted me to continue staying with Desmond rather than making him stay away from me had since been a mystery to me.
The two people I trusted the most in the world had betrayed me in the worst possible way.
I discovered their affair on the night of our mating ceremony after he had already mated and marked me, laying claim on me–exactly 30 months, 3 weeks and 2 days back. And right from then, the pain I had felt from that night had been forever etched into my memory, haunting me and reminding me how foolish I am.
The mocked luna.
The laughing stock.
A low laugh rumbled from within my chest. I pursed my lips, helplessly holding the sobs threatening to break through. My fingers desperately clutch the result papers in my hand; One was of a pregnant result and the other was for my yearly check up at the hospital.
My health was deteriorating recently and I couldn’t help but find my way to the pack’s hospital.
Aside from the result on my left hand which was showing that I had caught an infection which would cause severe damage to my health, I was more disturbed by the fact that a child was growing in my womb.
As I held the pregnancy test and check up results in my hand, showing that I had caught PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease),

a dark hollow seeps into my heart.
Why?
Why me?
The doctor told me that it was a complication of the untreated STII contracted through intercourse.
I’ve never slept with anyone but Desmond so I was certain I got this from him.
My breath came in short, sharp gasps, and I could feel the weight on my shoulders, my fingers trembled with restrained
anger.
Regret, pain and betrayal wash over me. How could he do this to me? Not only did he cheat on me, but he also put my health at risk. And now, I’m faced with the possibility of carrying his child, despite the danger it poses to my own health.
Twenty minutes ticked by, each one an eternity, as I sat paralyzed in my anguish. Finally my eyes break free from their trance, darting around the office, the florescent lights above me casting a glare on the sterile walls. The air was thick with the smell of antiseptic and the hum of machinery.
After a while, my teary misty eyes settled on the doctor’s somber gaze.
I felt entrapped in the four walls of this hospital.
Felt entrapped in the pack I’ve given my all and did all I could to be the best Luna, yet they laughed behind my back, all of them.
I felt like a bird with broken wings, unable to fly and unable to escape the pain that consumed me.
Sweat bead on my forehead, and my hair clung to my damp cheeks and neck, sticking to skin like a damp shroud.
“I have antibiotics which I’ll give you, take it consecutively for 14 days and hopefully, it will yield better result.” Doctor Ethan muttered in advice and hands out a small bag filled with pills to me.
His words were a gentle breeze in the summer day, but his tone was a cold harsh wind that cut through my already battered soul.
With a bitter smile, I forced out a “Thank you,” feeling a gnawing ache scratching down my whole being, embarrassment at my situation caused my cheeks to burn in heat while my eyes burned with hot tears.
The Doctor nods, “The baby’s life is already in danger as it is now, so I’ll advice you be careful. Working on your mental health with be helpful and also abstaining from intercourse for the next couple of months.”
With a slow nod, my eyes locked down on the results and my cheeks heated from embarrassment, I recalled the passionate encounter with Desmond just three days prior.
The memory of his hands on my skin, the pressure of his lips, and the weight of his body still lingered, leaving behind a trail of bruises and hickies that now seemed like evidence of my shame.
I avoid the doctor’s gaze, and wonder if he had noticed the telltale signs of our rough lovemaking.
“I’ll take my leave,” Doctor Ethan gave me a nod, his lips remain in a thin line, like he was holding back on saying something.
Turning around and heading to the door, the intense burning gaze on my back was something I couldn’t ignore.
Halting to a stop, just before I reached the door, his sharp and blunt words pierce through the air.

“Forgive him.” He gives his response immediately.
“What if he constantly rapes me?” I asked another question, my resolve breaking through every wond.
There was a hitch in his breath, “He is your husband, and doesn’t need your consent to satisfy his needs?
Turning around, my gaze landed on Doctor Ethan once more, “And what if he beats me? deriving joy and pleasure in sering my blood?”
He paused, turning his eyes away from mine and answering, “He is our Alpha
That sentence was enough to answer all my questions, so I turn around and left. I clutched my belly, the tiny life inside me s constant reminder of my love for Desmond.
Maybe, just maybe, he’d change his ways if he knew I was carrying his child. The thought was a fragile thread of hope! clunged to as I enter the living room. But it snapped the moment I saw them.
Desmond sat on the couch, his bare skin a stark contrast to the darkness that seemed to suffocate me. Gabriella’s legs wrapped around him, her eyes close in ecstasy as he moved inside her. The air was heavy with the scent of betrayal, and I felt like I was drowning in it.
My heart raced, each beat a painful reminder of the love I thought we shared. The room seemed to
spin around me, and I stumbled backward, my hand on my mouth to stifle the scream that threatened to escape.
