The Tale Of A Pregnant Luna
Chapter Fourteen

Chapter 14:

I boarded on the plane, walking towards my seat. Sitting down I letmyself look out the window. This was it. I was going to get out of here,away from the pain and sorrow that was following me around. I wasgoing to get away from him, who had hurt me. I was going to livehappily and I was going to live successfully for both of us. My eyesbrimmed with tears, as my heart clenched. A sense of guilt washed overme as the thought of taking away Reese's right to know of our childwas eating me up. But thinking of what he had done to us, he didn'tdeserve to know. He didn't deserve us. Yes...

This was a new start for me. A new life.

Boarding off the plane, got off with nothing but Daniels card. Showingmy passport I walked out of the airport, towards a nearby ATM,withdrawing some cash. For a moment I couldn't have felt happy takingsome sort of French in high school. Hauling a taxi, I got in directing thedriver towards a nearby hotel. Tomorrow I was going to go apartmenthunting and we were going to settle and live well. Reaching the Hotel, Igot off the Taxi, paying the driver.

"Bonne nuit (goodnight), madam" he said as he drove off.

Soon I got to the reception and booked a bedroom. I entered the coldroom. This was it for me. I was alone. No pack. No mom. No mate. Onlyme and my baby. Standing in the room I felt an emptiness consumeme.

Walking towards the large four poster bed, I sat down, my mindswarming with all the possibilities and impossibilities. I couldn't helpbut wonder what could have been if he had just accepted me? If he hadjust loved us? He had just ..wanted us. Tears brimmed my eyes as I letmyself lay down the tears pouring out. I closed my eyes, allowingmyself to hear the tiny badump of the baby's heartbeat. What had beendone was already done and time couldn't be turned back. This was thereality...

I turned to my side as I silently sobbed. I felt weak and vulnerable.Could I really do this alone? I wondered how he wasn't affected afterthe rejection, showing his composure and his aura of being "okay". Iallowed myself to hope that he would simply turn back and tell me hewas sorry and he really did want me. I couldn't help but despise him formaking me feel the way I was feeling, and I couldn't help but despisemyself for allowing myself to feel so affected. I stood off the bed wipingmy tears away and walking towards the dress mirror. I opened the sidedrawer, pulling out a pair of scissors,

L-life giving

U- useful and strong

N-natural caretaker

A- attractive

I looked at myself in the mirror. I was neither of those, nor he didn'tseem to see me fit any of the categories. My waist length hair hadbecome shoulder length in a split second. I watched as my brown hairfall to the ground.

Falling to my knees, I looked at myself in the mirror once again, as Icried into my hand. The continuous why's repeatedly echoing. Whywasn't it me? Why did he reject me? Why did I have to go through thispain? Why me? Why was I so weak? Why couldn't have been strongerto stand up better? Though its human nature to feel fragile, I wished Iwere simply stronger.

Placing my hand on my belly, I let myself come to an eventual decision.I was not going to make my child feel rejected. My child was not goingto be known as a rejected bastard. We were going to make it throughand I was going to make it happen. Feeling slightly satisfied I felt awave of nausea hit me.

I stood up as I rushed to the toilet bowl puking yet again. I lookeddown at my belly chuckling slightly. From what I used to hear from theomegas on kitchen duty, a baby bump should form in about 2 weeks. Icould do it. There was no time to feel weak. I walked to the sink, rinsingmy mouth. And looking at my ugly tears stained face. Even a ghostwould have run away. Washing my face, I skidded into the room, pullingthe covers over me, I switched off the lamp light and lied down lookinginto the city through the window near the dressing mirror. Soon, myeyes began feeling droopy as I fell asleep.

Everything was going to be okay.

**Reese’'s POV**

I stood by the window as the evening slowly set in. My hearty felt asthough it had frozen. She wasn't near me for me to feel if she was safeor not. I wanted to destroy everything and anything that stood in myway. I wanted her back and feeling weak and helpless I couldn't helpbut let her go because of a stupid threat. If I had realised earlier thather father is nothing without his stupid dark items, I would've found away to get rid of him earlier. Blinded by nothing but her safety, Icouldn't help but follow what was said.

How funny.

"Reese, honey let's go to bed." Lillian's disgusting voice grazed my ears.Oh how difficult it felt to have to stand up looking okay every time shewas near me.

"What are you doing here Lillian? We don't share a room." I saidmonotonously.

"Don't be cold Reese. This is what mates are supposed to be doing.You've been cold ever since you got back." she asked. I said nothingmaking her sigh. * Sometimes I question whether you love me or not,also, how long am I going to have to lie to everyone saying we'vemated, when in actual fact you've been holding back. I can't keepwearing your cologne forever you know." she spat bitterly.

"Lillian, there's no use rushing something as special as your first time.Who knows, maybe a better mate will come in my stead.” I saidsarcastically, making her screech at my words.

"How could you say something so heartless. That's not going tohappen. You are mine.” she said.

It seemed he delusional her well enough for her not to make out whoher mate actually was. Sighing, I couldn't help but feel my ragemultiply. Sighing I tried to appease her.

"Lillian, please not now." I said, trying to calm my nerves." Let's talkabout this later, please.” I said sweetly trying to persuade her. Herlovesick attitude allowed her to be swayed leaving me to my thoughts.Sighing I pulled at my hair. If anyone was going crazy it was me andhonestly I just wanted things to go as smoothly as possible. My flightwas scheduled for tomorrow, I was going to bring them back. I justhoped she was safe and continued to stay safe. I was going to explaineverything and do whatever it took to gain her trust and love. Shedeserved my suffering at the very least, for what she’s been through.**Yay! The chapter is complete! I'll try getting another 2 or 3 chaptersout tomorrow!
