From Omega To Pregnant Luna のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

EmmaWhen I wake up, I’m not in my family’s trailer. This room is too big and too white, and there’s a beeping sound coming from beside me. Is it a hospital?It takes a while for my eyes to adjust, but when I do, I realize I’m not alone. Alpha Reed is sitting on the chair beside my bed, looking up when he notices I’m awake.The mate bond immediately hits me, and I can feel his emotions as if they were my own: he is worried about me.“How are you feeling?” he asks.Since I’m at the hospital and he must have been the one who brought me here, I don’t bother to lie. He must know I’m pregnant by now.“Not good,” I admit. “Is the baby…?”“The baby is okay,” he says, not even showing a sign of surprise as he says it.I smile, but it’s a sad smile. “So then you know…”“That’s why you came to the event, wasn’t it? To tell me that you’re carrying my child?”“Yes,” my heart flutters. This isn’t how I thought this conversation would go, but Reed is extremely calm and gentle with me. It makes it e

EmmaA day later, I'm finally strong enough to leave the hospital. Reed isn’t inside my room as I'm folding the clothes I got to borrow but speaking to the doctors while I’m dreading what will happen next. My parents aren’t going to be happy with me. I never came back home after telling my Mom I was going to help Lily, and now I’ve spent three days at the hospital—if I so enter our trailer, I will get beaten to death. And what about my job and Alpha Jackson? If I’m not working, I can’t repay my Dad’s debt. That must mean my Alpha is furious with me. And by not showing up at my job, I’ve probably put Lily in trouble. “Everything okay?”I look up to see Reed enter my room. “Y-yeah, just a bit nervous.” I force a smile, but I get the feeling Reed can see right through me. He knows I’m anxious, and even if he didn’t, the mate bond would tell him. Still, he doesn’t demand to tell me what’s wrong. He calmly walks over to me and smiles. “Your friend, Lily, has been here a couple of time

EmmaDespite my absolute mortification, Reed doesn’t seem fazed by the scene in front of him. Instead, he bends down to help my Mom up despite her clumsy protests.“I can get up by myself,” she croaks.“I know,” Reed replies in a gentle tone. “But wouldn’t it be easier if I helped you?”He shoots my Mom am innocent-looking smile designed to charm any woman out of her bitterness.It works.My Mom blushes and Reed looks satisfied when she allows him to help her back to the table. Even if my Mom and I don’t get along, my heart softens for him, even if it’s just a fraction.Reed is sweet.“Is she going to be okay?” Reed asks me with an arch of his brow, indicating my Mom, who’s now sitting on a chair giggling at a half-eaten sandwich that she is holding.“She will be fine,” I tell him. “Let’s get my stuff.”“Won’t they wonder where you’re going?”My face burns. Reed doesn’t know that my Dad is abusive and that my Mom basically hates me since I’m the child she never wanted—they won’t care

EmmaReed’s words should repulse me, yet the shivers running down my spine aren’t from disgust. They come from desire. My lips part, but I don’t have the words to respond. Reed’s eyes, still dark from his wolf within, are seething with a dominance he hasn’t shown before. From afar, he can appear cold and cruel, but up close like this, it’s overwhelmingly clear how much he desires me.He lifts a hand to gently caress my face, his fingers tracing my jawline as though he sees me as a living piece of art. I let out a deep breath in anticipation, and he smiles. Every reaction seems important to him.“You’re beautiful.” His thumb brushes against my lower lip, causing me to jerk back against the car in surprise.Is he going to fuck me right here, right now?My heart throbs in my chest with an intensity that scares me. But then again, so does Reed. My mind races with the implications of his words. Wife? Luna? Are those just words to him that mean nothing romantic? Probably.I know that I

EmmaBefore finding Reed, I decide that this is a good opportunity to call Lily. She is my best friend, and I think her energy could calm me down from my inner panic attack.I can’t believe I’ve only been awake for a couple of hours, and I’m already receiving threats per letter.Shit… I definitely need to talk to Lily!I don’t have a phone since my Dad never let me keep any money I earned at the diner for myself, and whenever I needed to make a phone call, I always borrowed his.This room, however, is equipped with one of those old hotel phones that I can use to dial down Lily’s number.She answers on the first beep. “This is Lily Armstrong speaking.”I snort. “What’s with the formality?”“Emma?” she gasps. “Oh my god, I thought it was Alpha Reed calling me. I had a freaking panic attack seeing the number from his private mansion on my screen!”I snicker. “Sorry to disappoint.”“No, no, no, I’m actually glad that you called me. You don’t know how worried I’ve been ever since you passe
