His Second Chance Mate 31: Cover Up
MARAI was escorted to my room by the guards. I called maids to put my room in order, I was back to stay and I would see that it remained that way.I thought of the weight of what I had done. I just knew I had to keep it going or face huge consequences from Trevor and the entire clan. I didn't want to imagine what would be done to me if they found out I pinned a false pregnancy on the Alpha.Now I had to find proof of pregnancy.I was confused on how to go about it. I knew Trevor, he could show up at anytime demanding proof, hence, I had to be ready. I had to be two steps ahead of him or everything would be exposed soon.I picked up my phone and dialed a number. He had to have a way out of the mess. The phone rang twice but I got no answer. I paced around in my room, my heart was beating really fast.About thirty minutes later, the number called back. My heart skipped as I picked up, speaking in low tones,”Can you hear me? I really can't shout here,” I manager to say.I went on about

TREVORI left Mara’s room with more doubt than I had before going in to see her. I was not at peace with her complaint about being sick. For someone who had been so energetic, ready to fight the whole world in the morning, it was quite difficult to believe she was ill by midday.I knew how crafty and desperate Mara could get when she wanted something. Hence, I had Casper trail her to know her whereabouts. I was not shocked when Casper told me she had gone into the woods at night, despite reporting sick.I held onto that piece of information, albeit I feigned ignorance when I went to her room to get the urine sample the next day.She responded to me still acting sick, “How are you feeling today?” I asked, deliberately.She held her head and gave me a sick face, “I feel sore and weak, all over my body. I haven’t left this room since yesterday,” she said in a very low tone.I was irritated by her incessant lies.She walked into the restroom and came out after some minutes with her urine

BELLAA smile curved on my lips as I thought of the swell time I had with Trevor. The laughter, the talks, the jokes, everything. Trevor had put in so much to make me happy and it worked. The whole arrangement blew my mind, it was beyond my expectations.After seeing the result of Mara’s pregnancy test, I just lost my zeal. I felt really downcast. Although Trevor reassured me, it didn't help elevate my mood. I had reluctantly agreed to go on the date with him because I also needed to distract myself from the disturbing thoughts I was having.I was highly impressed when I realized we were having a picnic in a private park. I laughed hysterically when Trevor said he had a number of adventures planned and painting was one of them.I was all smiles as I walked towards my room but the smile on my face froze when Mara rushed out and stood in front of me. She looked like she was ready to devour her prey. I looked at her all the way down, shook my head and moved in another direction, “And whe

TREVORThere was so much chaos in the palace with Mara in it. She had taken up the duty of pissing Bella off and I hated it. I did not bring Bella to the palace just so she could get insulted by some runaway lover trying to force her way into my life.The incessant troubles were getting to me and I wanted more than anything to put Mara in her place but if she was pregnant, it was expedient to treat her with some calm, at least until I was clear on the matter.Deep down, I knew Mara was not pregnant for me. There were no signs whatsoever that she had my seed in her. However, I was ready to take it slow, one step at a time. It was as though she was deliberately frustrating my efforts to make Bella happy.I returned to the house with Bella. I was glad I had been able to make her happy. Next, I went straight to meet Cara and Craig. While tucking them in, Cara had insisted I placed her on my chest before she would fall asleep. In the process, I dozed off in their room.Suddenly I began he

MARAI waited patiently for my cousin to return with news of how the meeting went. I had sent her to spy on Trevor and the elders, so she could tell me what was going on.A few minutes later, she knocked on my door. I rushed to open it and let her in, “What's the update?” I asked, searching her face.“I don't know how you would take it but…” she began, making me impatient.“Go straight to the point!” I yelled, causing her to jolt.She nodded, “There was an argument about having two Lunas or just one..,”“Yes?” I asked, impatiently.“According to what I heard, the practice of having two Lunas ended a long time ago,” she said and looked down, “Besides, Alpha Trevor never had plans of making you a second Luna,” she said in a rush.“Damn that mean bastard!” I said stiffly, “What else did you hear?” I asked running my hands through my hair.“Some of the elders believe you are the best for Trevor, but he canceled all such opinions. He insisted that Bella is his only Luna and she has given h

TREVORWith a disdainful glance I stared at Mara, then I strode out of her room. Her pregnancy claim was obviously an act. I could see through her lies and it was suffocating.I went to my room and grabbed on a clean shirt. With a sense of urgency, I drove off to the hospital. I wanted to be sure that the pregnancy test was truly positive. What if there was a mistake? I couldn't bring myself to believe Mara was actually pregnant for me. I had warned her of the consequences of lying but she still maintained she was carrying my baby.My heart felt heavy with doubt and worry as I found my way to the doctor’s office. I was disappointed again as the doctor said the test was really positive. I let out a breath of frustration as I thought of a way out. I told the doctor I would like to crosscheck with another test. He nodded as he shook my hand, “I'm ready whenever you are, Alpha Trevor,”I nodded and left the hospital.On getting to the house, I went straight to Bella's room. I turned the k

MARAI paced in the waiting room. Trevor had said he would contact the cleaners to tidy up the restroom since I was unable to flush. But where did he go after that? I waited and waited, there was no trace of him. I called his number, it was not reachable. I finally got tired of waiting and left.I didn't want to be too hopeful, but I felt like I was making progress with Trevor. He asked me to take a walk with him and accompany him to the hospital! That was quite a leap.I thought of how calm he was all through. Surely, Trevor still felt something for me. If only Bella did not barge into his life, he would have been very happy to receive me.I called my partner to give him the update. Whatever was happening between Trevor and I was too exciting to keep to myself.“What now?” his voice came harshly on the phone.I sighed, “Good evening to you too,” I greeted.“What is it this time? We were supposed to meet yesterday and you stood me up. Now you have the audacity to call and talk like no

TREVORI got the test result from the two doctors and both were negative. I couldn't wait to reach Bella and tell her the good news. I was so happy that I did not lose her in the process. I was filled with so much joy.I rushed home to Bella. She was eagerly waiting for me to hear the results of the test. She was pacing in her room when I walked in.She turned to me, “Oh Trevor,” she called holding my hand, “How was it?” she asked, searching my face.“Relax, Bella,” I said looking into her eyes.“Tell me already, what’s the result?” she asked in anticipation.I pulled out the test results from my pocket,“Mara is not pregnant,” I said with a smileShe jumped on me, and kissed me fully on the lip. I burst into laughter as I held her ass and pushed her higher on my body, “She was fucking lying to us all this while,” I said looking at Bella.She sighed and wrapped her arms around my head, pulling me to her chest. She planted a kiss on the top of my head, “I'm so relieved,” she said.“Me t
