Alpha’s Second Chance Mate (Sidonie & Carlyle)

Pregnant and abandoned.
Sidonie’s POV
Aloud beeping sound filled my ears as I slowly became aware of my
surroundings. I groaned at the annoying sound, shaking my head to get it out.
There was a low murmur and then I felt someone touch my head.
I hissed at the pain and my eyes flew open, ready to fight whoever it was.
Aman was wearing a white coat, looming above me. The pair of stethoscopes
hanging around his neck made me calm down. Behind him was a nurse holding a
metal tray and some cotton wool.
Pain drifted down my temple again and I directed my attention back to the doctor.
What the hell was he doing?
Scratch that, what was I doing here?
Last I recalled, I was on the bridge. My body didn’t feel wet, so I doubted I had
jumped into the river.
So how exactly had I gotten here?
“Oh good, you're awake.” He said with a smile and stepped back. “We'd been
worried you had suffered a fatal blow. But your head seems fine. Only a bruise
and that should heal in a day or two.”
I frowned at him and tried to sit up. He grabbed my arms and propped me
against the bed headboard.
“Thank you,” I murmured hoarsely. “What happened? How did I get here?”
“A group of people rushed you in.” The nurse replied, walking to a bin in the
wardroom to throw the cotton wool. She sounded unimpressed. “They saw you
faint on the bridge and brought you here.”
1 gripped my head, trying to think through the headache that slowly arose. I had
fainted? How? Why? It didn’t seem likely that I would faint just like that. I was a
werewolf, I had a lot more resilience than half the humans on the planet.
Yet I had fainted.
Had it been because of Carlyle? Maybe the pain he caused me had made me
weak.
“When...” I croaked. “When was that?"
“Some three hours ago.” The doctor supplied.
“Oh, I see,” I mumbled and swung my legs to the side of the bed. “Thank you.”
“You need to be careful!” The nurse yelled suddenly, and I looked at her, face
marred in confusion. It was just a bruise on my head. It wasn't like I was going to
go around ramming my head into every wall I saw.
“What?” I asked, unsure of what exactly was going on.
The doctor and nurse exchanged glances, and I felt dread fill my stomach. Why
were they acting strange? Was something wrong with me? Did they know I had
been planning to jump off the bridge?
“Is there a problem?!" I asked, getting alarmed by their secrecy.
The doctor cleared his throat and spoke up. “Do you know you're pregnant,
Miss?"
I stared at him blankly, then as his words dawned on me, my eyes widened in
shock. “I'm what?!"
“I told you she didn’t know!” The nurse said, sounding rather proud of herself. I
glared at her and she glared right back.
What in the world was going on?! How was I pregnant? I'd only had s*x once in
my entire life and... No!
No way! I could not be carrying Carlyle's baby!
“No!” I yelled, shaking visibly. “I can’t be pregnant. I can’t. Not his baby.”
The nurse's eyes softened and she came to my side, covering my hand with
hers. “Breathe, okay? It's not the end of the world.”
It was! I wanted to tell her. It was the end of my world. It meant I had to live now. I
couldn't kill the baby. I could not drown myself either.
Hell, how would I explain this to my parents? They would lose their heads! Mom
would be so disappointed with me. I covered my face with my palm, sobbing into
it.
What about Carlyle? I shuddered at the thought. If he found out I was pregnant
with his child, there would be no escaping the betrothal. He would demand a
marriage with me and my parents would gladly give me up to save face.
He could never find out. I had to find a way to disappear off to a place he would
never find me. I didn't want to be bound to him ever. Not now. Not in a million
years!
Cleaning my tears, I thanked the nurse and doctor for their help and asked if I
could leave. After a few proceedings and signing the discharge document, I
walked out of the hospital, tired yet terrified.
If Carlyle heard a whiff of me carrying his child, I would have to marry him. Or
worse, he could decide that he didn’t want me at all, like he had so boldly
declared in the cafe and only lay claim to his child.
I could not allow that to happen.

I glanced down at my belly. It looked
the same as it had in the past years.
But I knew in time, it would grow
bigger. I placed my palm over it,
rubbing it slightly. This child saved
me. I would be damned if I would let
it go. The content is on

1 would raise him all on my own. Without Carlyle. Determined, I hailed a cab
home.
Mom waited at the door, eager to hear whatever must have happened.
“I'm sure you'll hear from him soon,” I told her with a smile and watched her eyes
light up with joy.
“Oh my gosh! I am so happy!” She squealed and rushed into the house to tell my
father.

I listened to them talk excitedly about
it during dinner. How happy they
were that things worked out. How
they had always known Alpha Carlyle
would like me. Hilarious. They

course, I didn't tell them. I sat through
the entire dinner, shoving meager
pieces of meatloaf down my throat.

I imagined the faces they would make the next day when they discovered Alpha
Carlyle didn't, in fact, like me, and that I was gone from the city.

That night, I drafted a letter telling
them not to worry and that I was fine.
I broke my piggy bank I had kept for
years and packed a few clothes. I had
lived for my parents all these years, it
was time I lived for myself and my
baby. The content is on
