Pregnant and Dumped By The Alpha novel Chapter 10

"What baby?" I asked.

"Don't act all stupid, you know you're pregnant," she smiled and glanced down at my tummy.

I was what?!

"E-excuse me?" I coughed, looking at Claire with a confused face. I glance down at my tummy- it was slightly bigger than normal.

"You're pregnant," she repeated slowly like I was a five year old child.

I froze. Shit. I was pregnant. I was pregnant. I was pregnant. I took in deep breath so that I calmed down from my inner rant. And it was his baby. Chase's.

I couldn't tell him, no. He wouldn't want anything to do with the baby. He'd just leave the baby like he left me. I couldn't let my baby go through that pain that I went through.

If he couldn't leave his lifestyle for me, his own mate, who loved him more than anything, what made me think he'd leave it for his child? Hell, I still love him, and I hate that I love him, but I know that in a few years time, the bond would be broken if he marked and mate someone else and if I got marked by someone else as well. Even though that thought did break my heart, I knew that there would never be a 'Chase and I', because he made that decision when he left me alone in there and started sucking off Nicole's face.

I had three options now, I thought with a cool mind. Abortion, adoption or keep the child. I could never kill any child of mine; never. It was an innocent being and I wouldn't end his or her life for anything. And I knew that I would never forgive myself if my child ended up with a family who treated him or her like mine treated me. So I had only one option left.

Keep the child.

"Are you silent because you're thinking about abortion? Please don't! I know you're so young but we'll help you and especially Emma. She loves babies, she'll help you!" Claire blurted, with her eyes wide.

I smiled at her, amused by her rant. "No Claire, I'm not pregnant, I'm keeping my baby," I stated, rubbing my tummy softly.

"Oh thank God!" she sighed in relief. "You know your baby was so weak, and he or she nearly died when you were shifting, but they managed to pull through, they are really strong, you know?" she whispered looking down at my tummy.

"I know," I whispered and stroked my tummy.
