Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 210

Read Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 210 – I could care less what she thought as I felt the tension leave Sage as she pressed closer, her ear to my chest. Malik is unfazed by the noise, used to me using it on Sage as he glances over at Jonah, who tucks his head next to his mother’s, and they both seem to calm down. Donnie, I could hear, was talking to Sierra, trying to make her more at ease.

Her doubt has been the biggest challenge, and she has a lot of influence over Sage, and her reluctance to believe, was not helping me convince Sage. Sierra should have had a clue when the heat finished Donnie told me, but Sierra was in as much denial as Sage.

She kept saying to us nothing good ever happens for her, that she never has or will be able to have pups. Donnie and I had no idea what she was talking about, but she kept insisting something about the cycle never changes, the cycle can’t be beaten, that she was doomed for eternal misery, Whatever the heck that means.

It sometimes angered me knowing she was feeding the same nonsense to Sage, but she did not even understand the weird things she sometimes says. Sage said she always says strange things but doesn’t know if Sierra fully understands what she is saying either.

I asked Kat about it, and she only told me that Sierra knew more than she realized and some traumas linger even after d***h, that a cycle has been on an endless loop, but she can’t tell me more than that, something about knowing too much can alter things and some things are best left unknown.

 

“The best calming device, one we all have but most forget to use, yours would be a little more potent though, Alpha,” Mathias says, making me jump. Sage also jerks upright, none of us hearing him walk in. Mathias laughs softly.

“How is your granddaughter?” I asked him, knowing Jasmine was his daughter.

“Quite alright, gave my daughter quite the scare, but she is fine; Jasmine wraps that baby up in bubble wrap,” He says, shaking his head.

“But how would she breathe?” asks Jonah, and Mathias chuckles.

“Exactly, but it was just a figure of speech. Now come on, let’s see what is going on with your mother,” Mathias says, waving for Sage to follow him.

Sage reluctantly hops up, her anxiety skyrocketing, and Jonah looks to Malik.” You can come too, Jonah,” I tell him when he goes to walk over to him. Malik spins him around and gives him a little push towards us, and Sage grips his hand, Malik then pulls his phone out to look at it.

 

We follow Mathias into his office; he goes over a few things before sending Sage to pee in a cup and takes some blood from her when she returns. Jonah watches Sage get poked and prodded with avid fascination. Once he has the blood, he hands the specimen and blood vials to the nurse, who walks off with it.

“Come on, next room over,” Mathias says, getting up from his desk and walking out before stopping when Sage speaks out.

“But, we should wait, wait for the test results to come back.”

“Most sure way to know is to have a look, Luna,” He says before walking off to the room next door. Jonah was watching curiously, not understanding. He hops off my lap and follows after Doc.

“Come on, mum,” he calls, and I nudge Sage, who was chewing her fingernails. I pull her hand away, her thumb bleeding where she had chewed off more than her nail. Clicking my tongue at what she did, she looks away but hops up, following Jonah.

Sighing, I followed her, and Malik was still sitting in the waiting room on his phone.

“Lock the door, just in case she flips out,” I Mindlink him.

“Already have, did it the moment you went in the doctor’s office,” He replies. I smiled because he was so observant, which made him an irreplaceable member of our pack. I have to tell him what to do very often, and he usually knows before I say anything.

Mathias was setting up when I walked in, and I closed the door, flicking the lock. Doc doesn’t say anything about it, just nods before motioning for Sage to lay down. She does stiffly, and Mathias looks over at me.

“Well, make yourself useful, calm your mate,” He says, trying to tug Sage’s shirt up. Her hands fisted at her hips as she clutched it.

“Anytime now, Alpha,” Mathias says to me; I was about to ask what he meant when Donnie forces forward.

“Idiot,” Donnie says before he starts purring ridiculously loudly. My face heats, but Doc doesn’t even glance up. “Now, Luna, I need to tug this up; I can’t if you are holding it” Mathias chuckles, and Sage startles.

“Oh right, sorry,” She exclaims, and I step over to her. Jonah was kneeling on a chair watching Doc. “Interesting fact about purring; it lowers blood pressure and works as an analgesic/sedative on she -wolves, Kind of works similar to a siren call in a way, that’s why she calms down, works on kids too or anyone we have a strong connection with, but more so She- wolves, And you being an Alpha, it would be stronger,” Mathias says, while squirting some jelly on Sage’s belly.

“Well, I didn’t know that, but I knew it calmed her,” I tell him before Sage clutches the bottom of my shirt. I grab her hand and purr again while Mathias turns dials before moving the device over her stomach.

“Oh, it’s a tummy TV,” Jonah says, and Sage looks away, focusing on something behind me. I press my lips together, rubbing circles on her hand with my thumb.

“Correct, Jonah. Good boy, we can have a look inside mommy’s belly.” He trails off, pressing buttons, and I could feel Sage’s anxiety turning to acceptance as she stared off. I move my hand, letting hers go, and she instantly grabs my shirt again like it offered some relief from her fear, Cupping her face, I wiped the tear that slipped away with my thumb, knowing she was looking off to hide how scared she was of me and Donnie being wrong.

“Ah, there we go,” Mathias says, making my head snap to him.

“Now, let’s see, give me a sec. I am a bit rustys; this isn’t usually my job, one moment, ” Doc says, fiddling with dials and buttons. Sage’s heart was hammering in her chest, yet she never once looked at the screen.

Kneeling beside her, she was staring off, so l grabbed her hand. I placed it in the center of my chest so she could feel the vibration, her eyes closed, and she let out a breath, her heart rate slowing when I heard another come across the speakers attached to the ultrasound device.

Jonah leaned forward as Mathias pointed to something on the screen before glancing over his shoulder and smiling before looking at Sage, pressing his lips together, frowning before shaking her arm.

Sage?” Mathias says, but she shakes her head.

“What is it?” Jonah asks.

“Well, that sound is your brother or sister, and this right here is a baby growing in your mummy’s tummy,” Mathias tells him, and he smile.

“A baby,” He gasps excitedly. I looked down at Sage, who seemed to be stuck in her head, muttering under her breath to herself.

“That’s not your heartbeat,” I whisper to her. I got no reaction from her. Gripping her chin, I force her to look at me.

“That isn’t your heartbeat; it’s our pup’s, look,” I tell her. Her brows pinch together.

“You are pregnant, Sage” I tell her, and Mathias turns the speaker dial-up and the baby’s heart rhythm is easily noticed as it i s faster than her racing heart. Leaning down, I press my lips to hers before smiling against her lips.

“I’m pregnant?” Sage murmurs, and I nod, unable to stop from smiling, and her head whips to the side to look at the screen. Mathias zooms in, blowing up the image on the screen.

“Yes, Luna, you are indeed pregnant, quite the miracle,” Mathias tells her, Sage seemed shocked as she looked at the screen when Mathias handed me some tissues without glancing behind himself. I take them, wiping Sage’s face as tears roll down her cheeks. 

“We are going to have a baby,” She sobs in disbelief, and I nod. Sage takes the tissues from me as she tries to stop her tears while staring at the screen. Jonah was busy examining the screen when Mathias passed back more tissues.

“She still has some,” I tell him, my voice cracking slightly.

“They aren’t for her, Alpha,” Mathias says, and Jonah looks over at me.

“Why is everyone sad?” he asks as I take the tissues, quickly wiping my face, not realizing I was the one blubbering like a baby.

“They aren’t sad tears Jonah, they are happy,” Mathias tells him.
