The Tales of a Pregnant Luna

I turned to look at him, and suddenly a smile etched it’s way on his face. He glanced my way, before he chuckled to himself. This man who had destroyed our lives and none the less abandoned us not soon after was there smiling. there was nothing more provoking or enraging than seeing him simply smile.

“Reese.” I whispered his name. He sideways glanced at me before muttering a what. “he can see us. He’s watching us.” I said in a cold voice. Reese looked back and his eyes widened.

He growled as he held me tighter and quickened his steps. “walk with me and don’t look back. Just follow me.” he said as he walked towards a bus stop. We boarded a bus and sat at the very back. Soon the bus began moving and I glanced outside the window. There he was on the sidewalk with a sinister smile on his face.

I shivered in fear and disgust. “okay we’re headed home, when we get home you’re going to your mom, I’m headed to my house.” he said, which hit a nerve. Why would he want us to separate at a time like this?

“Why can’t I come with you?” I snapped at him. “Is it because you’re going to be with your mistress?” I said. I don’t know why but I did.

Reese let out a sigh of frustration. “I’m not going to see any mistress Colleen; You are my mate. The only one. as for Lillian, I haven’t even touched her.” he said expressionlessly.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Liar! why would he lie as though what I had felt was a figment of my imagination?

“Liar! how could you look me in the eye and say you didn’t when I had clearly felt it?” I said to him. How does he have the guts to lie through his teeth.

“Colleen,” he began but I curt him off.

“Was this what you were hiding from me the entire time so you could return to Lillian’s side?” I snapped.

“Colleen, for goodness sakes, listen to me,”

“what is there to listen to? you’re just hurting me again…”

“Can you listen to me Colleen! No, I’m not lying, that burning sensation that you felt, that was just something your asshole of a father gave to drink, to make you think I mated with someone else and just as much as It hurt and burned you, it did the same to me. I would never do something so out of character. I thought we agreed that you wouldn’t doubt a single thing I said,” he said assertively as his voice hardened.

That actually shut me up. I groaned In stupidity. How can I doubt the person whose trying their hardest to protect me and our child?

“I don’t know what’s going on with me,” I stated.

“Just give it some time, it will slowly fade away,” he said making my eyebrows rise, what was he talking about?

We rode the bus in silence. Neither of us speaking to each other. Reese kept a distance away from me, probably angry at my accusation. But you can’t blame me, he broke my trust the first time didn’t he? The bus came to a stop and we hopped off only to come face to face with the man we’ve been running away from for that hour.

“Well, well, well” it sounded so not dramatic. “Reese, I thought you were smarter than that.” my father spoke. “Did you actually think you could outrun me?” he stated quite proudly.

“Outrun? That’s not something I do, I just needed to see for myself.” he said.

“Oh my, aren’t you a nosey one?” my father said as he let out a laugh.

Reese kept his face quite neutral trying not to give anything away as his eyes simply kept locked with my father’s his hand in front of me. “What is it that you want from us exactly? make your intentions clear like you always have and will continue to do” he said, I watched as his eyes turned dark. As his wolf tried making an appearance.

“I always knew you were quite the cunning fool, like your father,” he said as Rees’s hands fisted, his demeanour unchanging.

“Whatever bad blood that seemed to have risen between you and my father, is not something I’m supposed to shoulder the burden of.”

“Oh but it is,”

“How so?” Reese was dragging out the conversation for some reason and I could tell.

“The moment you were decided to be mated by my daughter dearest; it became your burden. Reese, all his faults are yours now, it’s all your fault now.” he said. “I gave you simple instructions, rather you can’t seem to follow, now I guess I’ll have to think of something else. Such a hassle.” he said.

He sounded…. Like a…. Child? A child looking for something fun to erase his boredom. but behind that boredom there was something else he was plotting.

“Why are you doing this?” this time it was I who spoke out. My voice shaky as the question came out.

He turned to me, an insincere. smile taking over his face. “Colleen baby girl! How are you, did you miss me? I know I did you.” he cooed as a wave of disgust washed over me.

“Answer the question.” I said to him.

He huffed out a breath and turned to me. “What’s the use of being able to do anything and being bored. Now back to my new way.” he thought for a moment. “aha! I’ve got it.” he smiled.

Reese looked at me, and back at my father looking ready to pounce. But he held back for my sake.

“It’s simple really, everyday you’ll feel the sensation you felt the night after your rejection. Your precious mate needs to heal that pain and that means having to mate with you until it’s gone. what better way to slowly kill you off, huh Reese? Oh but don’t worry, my grandchild will be out of harm’s way because I still need-”

and suddenly Reese’s eyes widened.

“Seems I have spouted too much,” he said before simply winking at me. A pain suddenly sparked through me as I fell to my knees, unable to handle it.

Reese stopped and turned to me abruptly and in less than two seconds he was by my side.

“What’s happening to her?!” he demanded from my father.

“Oh my, would you look at that, it has already begun!”.” he smiled cunningly.

“h-how do I make it stop, how do I make her pain stop. Tell me. Please!” Reese asked desperately. Almost helplessly.

“simple. MATING.” he said.

“Mating? I can’t mate with her, she’s pregnant!” Reese said flustered and confused but most of all angry

“Not necessarily physical mating. It’s the simple task of a mating mark, did I not say my grandchild will be out of harm’s way? She needs to mark you every night till dawn and of course you’ll need time to rejuvenate, because she won’t be simply marking you, she’s going to be killing you.” he said.

My insides felt like they were ripping apart. Reese pulled me closer to him until my face was right by his neck. “bite me.” he said and that’s exactly what I did.

I bit him.
