CHAPTER 8 She is Pregnant
A*n’s eyes were ablaze with a fury that she hadn’t known she was capable of and she snarled menacingly, her tone conveying her deadly intent clearly.
“You’ve pushed me too far this time, Ada. You’re welcome to the ba*t*rd. Keep him, ride him to your heart’s desire, pop out as many pups as you can for him, and live happily. While you do so… NEVER darken my door or speak to me again, do you understand me?”
Ada nodded furiously, rapidly turning a frightening shade of purple as she clawed desperately at A*n’s arm.
“If I EVER hear of my father being mistreated or he meets an untimely demise, know that I will return here with a fury that you have never seen before and I will annihilate both you and your mother. Do I make myself clear?” A*n roared.
Ada nodded furiously again her eyes beginning to roll up into her skull and her attempts to wrestle A*n’s arm from its position on her neck became weaker.
With a snort, A*n released Ada roughly and with a final look of contempt over her shoulder made her way to the front door.
“What is the meaning of this?!” Her father’s voice shouted angrily from behind her and Narcissa’s terrified shrieks sounded as she fussed over Ada from the position she had slumped in.
A*n paused and turned slowly to face her father.
“I’m stepping aside. I won’t be marrying Brad today, or ever in fact.” A*n answered calmly.
“You can’t just call off…”

‘Pfft! Speak for yourself you lightweight! I was pleasantly warm…’
‘Mmhmm, and where did that get us? Contract marriage with Alpha Nocturne, the main rival of my father’s business interests and a strong contender for next in line to be King if the Veritas heirs don’t prove themselves worthy.” A*n snorted.
‘I suppose it’s a good job that the rival for the King’s position is marrying one of his daughters then…’ Maeve said slowly with a sarcastic edge to her words.
A*n gripped the steering wheel in horror.
“Oh f*ck… Dad’s going to kill me when he finds out…” A*n whispered into the silence of the car.
‘If he finds out…’ Maeve smirked with a chuckle.
Her father absolutely hated Alpha Nocturne with a passion. She had a strong feeling it was because he reminded her father of himself in his younger years.?
Ruthless, uncompromising, and ambitious, Alpha Nocturne had rapidly made a name for himself both in pack politics and the business circles. With his strong leadership and his pack’s rise in power and territory, he was a force to be reckoned with.
‘I don’t know why you’re so bothered about your father’s reaction. He abandoned you in favor of his new family. You don’t turn on your own blood, it’s disgusting.’ Maeve snarled.
A*n was quiet for a little while, contemplating her wolf’s words. She knew she was right, but it still stung.
‘He might have turned his back on me, Maeve, but I’ll never give up hope that one day, hopefully, he’ll see the light.’
Maeve snorted.
