The Alpha King's Regret: Hiding His Secret Twins

Chapter 6

Kiara POV

After an hour, the door to my bedroom creaked open, and I glanced to see Eve, the doctor of the pack and Alejandro entering. I was about to get up from the bed, but as soon as I took a step, I again felt dizzy and found myself reaching for the bedside to support my trembling body. Eve and Alejandro were quick to reach me and make me lie down on the bed.

“This looks bad. I heard from Alejandro that you fainted. Are you okay?” Eve asked concern etched on her face as she took the medical briefcase from Alejandro and placed it beside the bed. I winced as she spoke. By now, I think the whole pack knows.

"I don't know, but it's been happening for quite a few days. I- I feel weak like my energy is draining, sometimes I desire to eat things which I don't like at all and I think I've gained a little weight," I admitted, rubbing my throbbing head

“You should have had yourself checked when it first started, Luna. You're too careless about your health," Eve scolded gently. As she pulls out the stethoscope from her medical bag and places it on my chest to hear my heart rate and lungs. Then she lightly grabbed my hand to check on my pulse with a critical eye.

"Please lie down comfortably on the bed.” she instructed, and I complied, as she checked my abdomen. I feel a mix of discomfort and curiosity about what might be causing my condition

"You're quite careless to call yourself a student in medicine and herbs, Luna,” Eve said lightly as she continued her examination. She put the device in her bag. But from her face, she didn’t look the least bit concerned, and her eyes shone with an odd sense of happiness that confused me.

I looked confused at her. I didn’t quite understand what she was talking about. Yes, I was a medical student before I married Killian, but I had to put it on hold because everything was so sudden and Alpha Eric wanted me to come to the pack sooner. So I decided to continue my studies here, but then I had to attend a meeting with Killian and look after the pack with him. I didn't get a chance to complete it.

"I don’t understand Eve." I said.

“Didn't your wolf tell you about this? I mean, she would be the first one to sense the changes in your body, Luna,” she said, her brows knitting together. Okay, now my heart has started to beat like a gallop. Am I dying or what?

Erica, what is she talking about?’ I asked my wolf, who only slumped her head, not responding to me. And I started to get irritated by her referring to me as Luna; didn't she come here last night to know that I’m not Luna now?

"Can't we just skip the honorific because it's now making me uncomfortable?" I said, and her frown deepened.

“Why, I'll be punished if I don’t address you by your name. I don’t want Alpha to come to my head.” She tried to lighten the aura, but it only deepened I growled because yes, now everything around me started to be more stressful for me and my wolf, who was bound to a single thread so we both wouldn't go crazy.

"What? Am I missing something? Did I say something wrong?" She asked as she looked at Alejandro. "Kaira is not a Luna, now: that position was given to Rihanna last night.”

"When did she return to the pack?" but before Alejandro could answer, I growled loudly enough for them to understand that they had to stop talking about this. At least, not in front of me.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Could you please tell me what's happening to me, Eve? What am I dying now?" I asked, my heart pounding in my chest loudly. “What? No, no, Lu... Sorry Kiara. You're not dying,” Eve assured me with a small smile

"Then?"

“Alejandro, I wanted to talk to Kiara alone.”

"No, I could not do that because it's the alpha’s order to stay with her and not leave her for a second," Alejandro said. So now he is caring. I could not help but tsk inside my mind. Wasn't he the one who left me here to follow his ex-lover like a kicked puppy?

"How's your and Alpha's sexual intimacy nowadays?" She asked, and my eyes widened. As for my cheeks, they started to feel hot, and I bet that they would be red by now. Alejandro coughed, looking around the room, trying to blend in, invincible himself.

She waited for my answer, but I couldn't form one. How could I say that we are not the lovey-dovey couples the pack members think? We hadn't gotten physically intimate for the past two months? The burden of duty had been heavy on his shoulders as he worked hard to form a treaty with small packs and strengthen the Madcrest pack.

So I decided to shut my mouth and not answer her question. But her next word shook me to the core.

"You're pregnant, Kiara. It should be around eight weeks. I'm not sure, as I would suggest you come to the packs clinic for a clear examination. But I am 100% sure you're pregnant.”

And the news hit me like a splash of cold water. What? I couldn't believe it. My eyes started to glisten with tears. I'mpregnant with his pup. I had totalty forgotten that night. Two montis ago, Killian and I had wsited RecsBound Pack for the alliance. Kita fn got so drunk while celebrating their joint treaty that night. I decided to come to our assigned guest room before him.

I stayed in my room, uncomfortable and anxious, as-I waited for him to return. Wherthe finally came back, he was soxdrunk and angry. Lycans hada high tolerance for alcohol, But that night, he had been strangely affected after only two drinks: I remember us sharing a deep, passionate night together as if he wanted to claim me to let everyone know I belonged to him alone.

But in the morning, he said he had no memory of it. It broke my heart. and since then, he has been distant. putting a huge emotional and physical distance between us.

"And I think Alpha has the right to know about you carrying his children," Eve Suggested, pulling me back to the present. Panic surged through me; 2 and I immediately knew that I wa asn't ready for him to know, not yet li f he wanted me to carty his children, it would have happened befére, but he was always Cautious during all our previous sexual encounters. That night was a mistake, a big one, and I am sure he is not going to take this news as a happy one, not after Rihanna returns.

"No!" I shouted, catching both of them off guard. I quickly composed myself and added politely, "I mean, I'll share this good news with him.” They seemed reluctant at first, but they eventually agreed to respect my decision.
