Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Bond 48



Hector POV

She is ever so light in my arms.

"Ezra, step on it!" I roar, as she lays in my arms, in my chest passed out.

The horror I see when I look down, blood...she's very pale...not her usual golden sun-kissed skin colour.

I can feel my own alpha aura suffocate the atmosphere in the car.

The pressure from the aura on Ezra is making him drive even faster. He bypasses the pack roads, driving across the training fields to get to the hospital in record time.

The car skids to a halt outside the hospital front doors, the head doctor and medical staff already waiting with a gurney. Ezra must have mind-linked ahead, in my panic I was just concentrating on getting her here.

I don't wait for them to lay her on the gurney, I keep her in my arms, knowing time was against us. The head doctor shouting behind me which corridors to take as they all tried to keep up with me and Ezra.

All I could do was run, that was all I could do to help her. I felt useless.

As soon as we enter an operating theatre, I lay her down on the bed, the team getting to work straight away as I am ushered out.

But something inside me is telling me not to leave her. My wolf has grown more attached than I had realised. She has become a constant in our daily pack life recently. Her smile across my desk keeping me calm when dealing with external pack issues. Her beautiful face lighting up any room she walks into.

"I'll do what I can Alpha. How many weeks pregnant is she?"

I don't actually know, how come I never asked her..

"I'm not entirely sure."

"Are you the father Alpha?"

"No...no I'm not the father..." My wolf pushes forward, growling threateningly at my own doctor, Ezra's hand landing on my shoulder in an attempt to calm my wolf down.

"He was just asking Alpha." Ezra's voice enters my head.

"Let's not kill our best doctor before he has had a chance to help Kaia."

He was right, I needed to cool down. But why was my wolf so angry at the question.

Was it because he was insulted that he would think we would impregnate a female that wasn't our mate... or was it jealousy...jealousy of Than for taking another from me. Getting there first, yet again.

It is hours later and I finally am given the approval to visit Kaia. I've been waiting, pacing the corridors for too long, slowly going insane.

I respected my head doctor. I was alpha yet in this hospital he was the alpha. He had made that very clear when he accepted the senior position. But today even I was challenging his medical patience. As I enter the room I find her unconscious on the bed, machines beeping around her.

I've walked into a room like this before.

A flashback comes to me that I haven't experienced in a long time.

"She's going to be fine. The machines are just a precautionary measure...she doesn't need them.." The doctor informs me as he follows me into the room.

There is a nurse sitting in the corner typing away, most likely instructed by the doctor to keep a bedside vigil.

I move to the end of the bed, her body tucked under a blanket, her hands placed out to her side. An overwhelming need to touch her hands take over me, and for once I give into my wolf's desire.

Deja vu hits me...I remember visiting Alora in a hospital bed before I was swiftly escorted off the pack grounds by Medea.

She wouldn't even let me wait, give me time to process what had happened. What my own mate had done to herself.

The beeping of machines breaks me out of my thoughts, and I take a seat next to Kaia.

Watching her pulse on the monitor, my chest feeling restrictively tight from the sight before me.

I should have told her the truth, I will tell her the truth.

No matter how hard it is for me to think about that time, before I became Alpha of the Dark Phantom pack. I need to tell her exactly what happened.

"She should be awake in a few more hours..." The doctor checks her chart before making new notes on it.

My eyes glance to the chart, there was only one and now that I think about it there are no wires attached to her stomach. Her tummy is safely secured under the blanket. "Is the baby okay?"

"Unfortunately she lost too much blood, the baby didn't survive."This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
