MALIYA 

“Hey, how are you doing?” Claudia asked as she came into the room. 

I sighed in response, tired and sad about everything that was happening to me. The more I thought about it the harder it got and honestly don’t know what to do 

anymore. 

“You need to keep your best attitude, the Alpha is coming to confirm the news of your pregnancy and he might not exactly be in a good mood so be careful around him,” Claudia warned and I sighed. 

The man that fucked me like I was a toy every night without protection is coming to confirm if I was indeed pregnant for him or not. 

Tears pricked in the corner of my eyes at the news and it felt like my heart had been ripped apart. 

How could I be pregnant for the most heartless man alive? 

He couldn’t even believe the result of his work and now I am going to keep on getting tested like a lab rat just to confirm if I was indeed pregnant or not. 

Why did he bother sleeping around when he knew he was going to question us when he found out that someone was carrying his child as if it wasn’t already a torment? 

All my life, I have dreamed of being happily married to my mate and having children. of my own running around in the house but what I have never imagined was losing my virginity the way I did or getting pregnant for a ruthless Alpha like Xander. 

Kane might have been–an asshole who brought me into his hell hole in the first place, but at least, I was happy with him. 

I knew my future was certain with him and I tried to do everything to please him, but where does that get me? 

Tears streamed down my face and I brushed it away harshly. I hated how everyone was walking all over me for being so weak, but there was only so little that I could do. 

I don’t know if I should cry in my situation or just laugh it off. It’s just another bad day, it will pass like the other days, right? 

As much as I want to think of it that way, I knew this was different. I’d have to carry a

child I can’t even love for nine months and endure all the harshness every day. 

Ending my life seems to be the only option to put an end to this misery but even that seems to be the most tasking part of all. 

“Maliya, are you listening to me?” Claudia called my attention back to herself, but my attention was far gone. I was lost in my thoughts. Lost between ending my miserable life and wishing things would change for good.

I wished things were different. I knew my stepsister would never be in this situation. She would have found a way out, as she always does, which makes me hate myself more for being so weak and helpless. 

“Do not cry in the presence of the Alpha. You know how much he hates seeing any kind of emotion in people, especially weakness. He despises it,” Claudia warns me beforehand but if I was being honest, he would be doing me a favour by ending my 

right away. 

Just then, Alpha Xander came in with his domineering presence as usual, and fear gripped down on me. 

His eyes were sharp and cold and my heart skipped a beat from the intensity in his eyes. It was as if he was expecting to hear the opposite of the news. 

He didn’t look the least pleased and my hands began to shake under the covers.

Relax, Maliya. The worst he could do was throw you out. How bad could that be? I have been through worse by just staying here. 

No matter how much I tried to keep calm, I could stop my heart from beating fast. I knew how heartless the Alpha was and I was afraid he could do the unthinkable to me. 

Ever since I met him, he has been nothing but cruel to me and if I was being honest, he scares the shot out of me. I don’t know if it was my luck but I have always gotten on his bad side no matter how careful I was. 

I only have bad memories about him and there was never a good time where he seemed less intimidating or made me feel at ease. 

One would think he would at least be a decent person since I was carrying his child, but he was just a cold blooded beast. 

Right on cue, another doctor came in with Rosalie and seeing the look on his face, I bet he was the one who requested for another doctor to see if I made it up or if all of this was a lie.

“You sent for me, Alpha,” he said and he answered with a nod.

“Run a proper test on the girl. I need to know how she is doing,” he ordered with a cold glare and I couldn’t help the pang in my chest. 

I was just a girl to him. 

“Please lie down,” the doctor instructed, and I sucked in a deep breath. 

Throughout the entire time, the doctor ran his test on me, Alpha Xander’s eyes did not. leave my body. He watched everything carefully like a hawk, waiting for the doctor to make a mistake or maybe for me to send a secret message so that he could know it was a lie. 

He watched as the doctor raised my wrist to check my pulse. He continued to examine me for a while before he broke the silence. 

“Alpha, she is a week pregnant,” he announced, and my eyes met with Alpha Xander’s cold gaze. 

He didn’t look the least happy, and I looked away in fear as my hands trembled under my clothes. 

“She is in a very delicate state and her pulse is weak so she needs to get enough rest and stay away from anything that might threaten her safety or her baby.” The doctor announced, oblivious to what was happening and my heart sank. 

“Check her pulse again. I need you to be certain that you are not making a mistake. I needed to be sure if she is pregnant, and if it is for me,” he said without batting an eye. 

The doctor smiled and I could no longer hold back the tears that threatened to fall from my eyes. 

“I have been doing this for long enough, Alpha. I can not make a mistake. She is a week gone. Surprisingly, her symptoms showed up early which could be due to fear, but she is indeed pregnant,” he announced, and fresh tears streamed down my cheeks.
