The Rejected Lone Wolf 64
GREYThe sound of my wolf howling almost made me stop running, but I couldn’t. Not before I got to Bloom. I felt every pain, heard every cry, and I had to remind myself to breathe or I would have choked. This had to be one of the worst things I’d experienced. I continued running when another scream echoed in the air. It was a scream of agony. Finally, after what felt like torture, I came across Bloom and stopped. Lying on the harsh ground of the forest, she was writhing in pain, her face contorted as she tried to push the baby out. “You can do it, Luna,” the female nurse kneeling next to her tried to calm her down. Bloom’s eyes found mine, and my heart almost gave out when I saw how weak they were. They fluttered open and closed like she was about to give up. “No!” I didn’t say that aloud, but I shook my head, trying to make her stay awake. Of all things, at that moment, I wished I could take away all her pain. But that wasn’t possible.“Luna!” My gaze turned to the nurse who was

BLOOMIt was relieving to have Grey beside me. It’d been about an hour since the contractions started and Grey returned from his hunt, and I wasn’t sure how much longer it would take. At that moment, I wish I had known to prepare myself for the pain I was going to experience. I bit down my lower lip to stop myself from crying out as another wave of contraction hit. Grey noticed this, and his eyes widened in worry. I wanted to reach for his forehead and rub away those creases, and I wanted to assure him that everything was okay, but I wasn’t even sure of that myself. Under the doctor’s instruction, the nurses kept checking if I was ready, and their heads shook and shared looks told me that I wasn’t. It was a struggle to keep my eyes open at this point, as the doctor asked questions relating to how I was feeling. Every surge of pain intensified my uncertainty and fear. I needed a voice of reassurance to just guide me through the labyrinth of my emotions. As more time went by, I could

GREYSounds of celebration filled the Pack as the news of Bloom’s safe delivery spread, but there was one negative energy in the midst of the positive ones, and I could feel it all the way from where I was. Her father had said nothing even after we informed him of the news which was quite suspicious. It was obvious even from the beginning that she was there for a purpose, and it wasn’t here to help with the rogue issue. The Alpha of Orion had probably sent her to be a spy, and even upon sending news of her detainment to him, he didn’t seem to care. And so for the time being when everyone else was busy preparing for Bloom’s delivery, I sent Leo to do a little digging for me. It was when I figured out what was really going on. As I walked into the torture room, my gaze fell on the woman chained to a corner, the woman whose father refused to pay any attention to her. It kind of reminded me of Bloom’s situation. Her father never loved her enough to protect her even though she had done a

BLOOM'S POVI heard it, and so now we couldn't punish her the way we wanted to. Angie, pregnant with the alpha's child....my mate's child? I chuckled to myself in the mirror. It was so hard to believe, but then we needed to be sure that she was telling the truth, so we had to call the doctor to check on her. I could smell the difference in her scent, but I refused to believe it until it was confirmed. After the check-up, Grey and I waited for the news while I held our baby in my hands. The doctor walked out of the torture room, his eyes narrowing between me and Grey but with that of submissiveness. He bowed a little and nodded. My eyes widened at this discovery. I glanced at Grey, but he said nothing. I didn't think he had anything to say either. But we just had a child delivered and now a home wrecker walked into our home to destroy the peace between the both of us. I was wounded beyond what I could even explain. But it was my fault. I should have listened to my instincts when they

Bloom's PovGrey looked like he was a second away from ripping her head off. I was very sure that was the exact look I had on my face as well. I had people behind me anyways, that stopped me from making any further movements towards her. Like what the fuck?! I glared at her and could just imagine throwing her to the wall without caring whether or not she had a child. But I had to control my urges before I did something I'd regret. My wolf growled in my head. I pushed her back so she wouldn't take control of my body. This fool was trying to get my man to look at her. And here I was doing nothing about it. I growled while the guards were ready to hold me when the need be. They knew I'd kill her without effort. She stayed there staring innocently like a damsel in distress. What the fuck was she even thinking. That she can take my place? As what exactly? The Luna?"Get the fuck out of this place Angie," Grey growled. Even his wolf threatened to show up if Grey did nothing about this. But

BLOOMMy mind was on Angie. There was no telling what she was up to, and as much as I wanted to keep an eye on her every moment, I didn’t have any time for that. My gaze returned back to my sleeping child. My precious daughter, my Angel who I wanted to protect. I reached out to touch her toes when the door opened and Grey walked in. The weariness on his face and his tousled hair all pointed to the fact that he’d been up all night, but somehow even with all that, he still managed to look so attractive. After kissing me on the lips, he put out a finger to touch our daughter’s face, before sitting next to me on the bed and resting his head on my lap. “Did you find anything out last night?” I asked as I ran my fingers slowly through his hair. “Hmm.” Grey nodded. “Ray got more information about the rogue camp, and it was just as I thought. It’s clear now that Lewis is the leader of the rogues. We can’t just sit back and watch without doing anything. We need to strategize a way to capture

BLOOMThe next morning, Grey and I set out for Montrose Pack after receiving news of a rogue attack. Upon our arrival, I was shocked at the sight we met. The rogues' attack had completely brought down the place. They left nothing standing. They had left so many survivors. Tears filled my eyes as I looked around. While this place had never been a home to me, it was still where I grew up and spent most of my life in, so it left me feeling broken.As I got to the place where the Alpha’s mansion once stood, my vision became blurry with tears. Most of the building had been reduced to debris. Remembering that my father used to keep a diary, I shifted into my wolf and sniffed the ground, searching for the book in the ruins. I moved through the rubble in my wolf form, my heightened senses picking up on scents, most of them being my father’s. As my paws trod upon the scorched ground, I spotted a fragment of charred wood that was etched with familiar markings and knew it was a scorched corner

BLOOMUpon getting back to the Pack with Grey, I had reached the top of the stairs when I heard a feminine exclamation and turned around to see Angie clinging to Grey like a damsel in distress. Grey’s face was pulled back as he looked at her with disdain. Physical touches in general made him uncomfortable, so to be touched by someone he didn’t like must feel highly unpleasant.“I’ve not been feeling good these days, and still, you don’t pay me any attention. Do you still not believe the child I’m carrying is yours?”My hands squeezed into fists by my side and I gritted my teeth as I watched Angie caress Grey’s arms while batting her eyelashes. I was about to walk down the stairs and pull her away from him when someone caught my arm. Looking back, I saw Rich shaking his head at me. He seemed to know that if I got close enough to her, I might kill her. I couldn’t stand watching her do that to him. Just as I wanted to pull out of Rich’s hold, a growl echoed in the air and everything wen
