SIDONNIE'S POV
“Hey, watch your steps. The woman hurried to my side, holding me up as I nearly
fell from the bed which I laid.
“Take it easy, you're in safe hands.” She assured me, but I found it hard to let my
guard loose for some reasons.
“What am I doing here? I mean, how did I get here in the first place?” I
questioned aggressively.
“Take it easy, young lady. I'm so sure you don’t want to affect the baby.”
Oh! That's true! I'm pregnant. My hand slowly reached out to my belly, cupping it
delicately. How could I forget that I had another life inside of me? So far so good,
I thought I have been able to come to terms with my pregnancy, but....
“That doesn’t mean you're a bad mother to your baby. It's normal for all first
timers.” The woman who sat close to me on a nearby chair flashed an assuring
smile at me. But her smile only made me become wary of her the more. Who is
she? I wasn’t speaking my thoughts out loud, but she responded to them like she
was hearing be loud and clear.
“Who are you exactly? How were you able to read my thoughts? Are you sure I'm
safe like you said?” I tried using my wolf senses to figure out who she was but
she basically had no smell. I couldn't tell if she was human, a werewolf, a
werecoyote, a witch, or some other type of supernatural being.
“Of course, you are in safe hands. I don't bite.”
“That's not the answer I'm expecting, ma'am!” I yelled at her. “Who are you
exactly? Let's start from there.” I was being defensive all over again.
“Okay, fine. I'm Athena.” She answered simply, not bothering to utter any more
word about her identity.
“You surely know what I mean, right? Since you can read my thoughts, you
should know what I want to know. You should know what I meant by “who are
you?*. I can't figure it out.”
“I know you can't, which is why you're here.”
“What do you mean?” My brows furrowed in confusion.
“Young lady, I can't tell you much right now. Perhaps as time goes on, you'll get
to know

me better. But trust me when I say you're in the safest hands at the moment.”
She spoke to me with so much serenity in her voice which I've ever heard. Her
words calmed every raging nerves in my body as I stared at her, sculpting every
structure and. emotion on her face to memory.
After taking a satisfactory look at her, I heaved a sigh, hoping I'm not trusting the
wrong person. It's not like I have another place to go after all.
“So, with that said, where were you

going to?” The woman's question jolted me out of
“I...1..." I couldn't find words to say. How was I going to tell her I ran away from
home?
“I think honesty is a key to getting things done.”
“I left.” I was nervous, spitting out answers from my mouth.
“I know that, already. But why?”
“It's a long story.”
“I'm willing to listen. Only then can I know how to help you.”
“I had to leave from an arranged marriage which my parents wanted for me so
badly.”
For a while, Athena was silent.
“Okay, so you're trying to stay with the baby's father or what?”
“It's complicated, Athena.”
“The person I'm to marry is the owner of the baby. He's an Alpha, the Alpha of
our pack.”
“Wait, if I get you right, your baby daddy is your betrothed and he’s the Alpha of
your pack?”
“Yes, he is the same person involved in all situations of my life.”
“If I were you, that's the perfect option and opportunity for a young lady like you.
Why did you run away?”
“I never intended to leave, but he hates me so much. I can't tell why that is
exactly, but he does, even after knowing we're mates.”
“You're mates?” Athena was surprise my revelation, and I nodded in affirmation
to
her answer. “Then, what happened?”

full attention te my narration, and I so
much appreciated her for it. It was
like I had someone I could lean on.
Someone who understood my

easy I became with her, it felt like I
made the right choice of speaking
out to her as that was pretty much
what I needed then. The content is on

“But have you thought of what he’s going to do if he finds out about his baby?”
“I don’t plan on letting him know. Not now, not ever.”
“From experience, the baby is going to ask for his father. What will you do by
then?”
“I don’t know, Athena. But I really want to pull through this in the best way and
succeed without relationship hitches.”
“Since you've made up your mind, I have nothing to say. What do you want to do
next?”
“I don't know, Athena. Though, finding a source of income is the first thing for me.
I need to fend for myself and my unborn child. But I'm scared!”
