What was there to cry about! Before there was me, there was always Lorena.

She was his first everything. The fact that it had taken her this long to even get pregnant for him, was strange,

Once more, I was reminded of what I truly was.

A placeholder to what really mattered in the grand scheme of things.

I continued going thr

through my closet in search of something to wear.

It was as if all the clothes Ivy got me had disappeared.

There was nothing that wasn’t nightwear to wear.

I sighed, and dropped on my bed. It had taken a miracle to get me out of the bathroom, and into the room.

I could have been satisfied with remaining in the bathroom forever.

Showing my face was like wallowing in my shame.

I hated this situation so much, and there weren’t a lot of things I actually hated.

He knew, and that was the most devastating part about this entire thing

He knew, and didn’t have the decency to tell me.

Rather, he laid me under the witness of the sky, and its stars, and we consummated our bond

I could still feel the pressure of his largeness in between my legs.

Deep in my core was still so sore. I had barely recovered, and now I had to deal with an extra pain of the obvious.

As long as alpha Ramon was concerned, it didn’t matter what the moon goddess designed.

I was always going to be his number two.

“You said you weren’t going to give up,” a voice in my

head reminded me.

I knew I said that, but maybe I was just getting ahead of myself.

Why did I think I could change his mind? Who was I, anyway? Why did I even n

I felt the onset of tears again, and cleared my throat to wade them off.

The door suddenly opened before I could compose myself, and Ivy walked in.

“Pretty girl, are you alright?” She said, jumping on the space beside me.

“I’m fine, why?”

She gave me a once over, and frowned in disapproval.

I would have told your I washed them this morning, when I woke up confused about your whereabouts, and looking for something to distract me froan Loren’s condition,” she replied.

“What happened to Lorena is not the entire reason why you were so ashen in the face, last night, was it?” I asked.

I held my breath, hoping she didn’t lie to me.

It would make it hard to believe anything she said, going forward.

She searched my face closely, and signed. In a startling action, she pulled me in for a hug.

“What’s this for?” I asked, totally confused.

“I didn’t want to ruin your joy, last night, and most especially, this morning, Sonia Please forgive me for not telling you immediately?”

“Telling me what!”

“I have a feeling you already know about it, but you deserve to hear from me. When I encountered Adelaide, when she was on her way to Alpha Ramon. She told me she had received a summon from Ramon, to check on Lorena. She said she had been expecting that call, because it was clear to her. Lorena is pregnant. She didn’t even know about the attempt to take her life by then,” she explained.

“So that’s how you found out?”

She pulled away, and looked at me with sincere eyes

“I was almost sure the alpha would tell you himself, that’s why I didn’t bother to tell you. I’m surprised he didn’t.”

“Yeah I was at first, but it tracks. He has never taken me seriously, why should he now?” I scoffed bitterly.

“Don’t say that, Sonia. I’m sure he just felt unsented. Isn’t that why he sought solace in your arms? I know how you must feel right now, but I think you’re getting it all wrong. Alpha Ramon does care about you, even if it’s hard for him to admit it.”

“You always talk like you know him so well. I don’t understand your relationship with Ramon. I just don’t get it,”
