Fated to the Alpha–And His Triplet Brothers novel Chapter 303

Chapter 303: Devil 2

*~Aurora’s POV~*

How much of a devil could these people be?

I stayed rigid as Rebecca stared at me. "Hello, bride," she said again, forcing my attention.

I finally turned to her. "What do you want, Rebecca? You’ve won. I’m married to him already."

She nodded calmly. "Yes, you are. Congratulations."

There was something in her eyes as she spoke. Something off. She didn’t look as satisfied as she was supposed to be.

Then her gaze fell to my stomach.

"You’re pregnant now," she said. "Do you remember our promise?"

I frowned. "What promise?"

"If it’s a boy, it’s Azreal," she said smoothly. "But if it’s a girl, it’s Azazel."

I shook my head. "That promise was for if I got pregnant for Darius. This isn’t Darius’s child. This is Leon’s."

Rebecca reached a hand into the carriage, resting it on the edge like she owned the air I breathed. "I don’t care," she said quietly. "I was talking about your baby, not the father."

My throat tightened. "Will my baby be safe?" I asked, hating how small my voice sounded. "Will Darius harm my baby?"

Rebecca sighed and shook her head. "Darius might be a monster... but I don’t think he’ll harm your child. I think he’ll raise that baby as his."

The words hit me like a slap.

"Darius would raise Leon’s child as his own?" I whispered. "Impossible. Absolutely impossible."

Rebecca smiled, the expression cold and certain.

"Oh, yes it’s not."

He would raise that child as if it were his own.

"I know my brother more than anyone," Rebecca said. "He seems to be in love with you."

I turned on her with a glare. "In love with me? That man tortured me. He has made my life a living hell, and you’re standing here talking about him being in love with me?" My eyes watered. "That isn’t love. This is suffering."

My voice cracked. "You people are making me suffer in this household, and I’m sick. I’m tired of it. You married me off without my permission. You treat me like I’m not someone with emotions, with dreams."

I swallowed hard. "Women are women, no matter the creature. And if you are feminine, you’re not supposed to have a dream. Men, no matter the creature as well, will always claim us."

"Then why are you unclaimed?" I snapped, turning to her.

Rebecca shifted her gaze away.

"You should understand," I said bitterly. "Even though you don’t want to be single forever, even though you don’t want to be unclaimed forever, I have someone I love, and I’m carrying his child presently."

"I do not understand," she replied coldly. "What I understand is that I want you married to my brother. Our children should be happy, Aurora."

She started to walk away, but I forced out the courage to grab her attention.

"So this is it?" I asked. "You’re just going to leave and pretend my life isn’t over?"

She glanced back over her shoulder. "It’s not over, Aurora. You are strong, and you will get past anything that comes your way. If there’s something I admire about you, it is your strength, and I will not deny it."
