DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott Chapter 80
Chapter 80
Prescott
I unleashed the punching bags with all my might, each strike fueled by the simmering rage within me. The thud of my fists meeting the bag echoed through the empty gym, a testament to the intensity of my pent-up emotions. I always kept this part of the gym all for myself because I didn’t want the other pack members to come near me or see me when I wasn’t myself.
Sweat dripped down my brow as I unleashed blow after blow, the physical exertion providing a temporary satisfaction from the pain I was in. The bruises on my knuckles were already healing but my wolf didn’t surface. He had shunned me, blaming me for the death of our unborn pups and the state of Matilda.
She was pretending like nothing happened since the moment Riya broke the news of Lola’s vile move. After my breakdown, my mate was trying her best to act normal and comfort me but the weight of guilt was too heavy to carry.
I should have been the one to comfort her because she suffered through the pain I could only imagine. Yet I couldn’t bring myself to face her or say something to soothe her.
“Stop being the asshole, Alpha,” Caleb barked, throwing a towel to my face which I caught in time.
“I wanted solitude and told you not to disturb me,” I snarled at him, throwing the towel on the floor after wiping my face with it.
“Don’t shut everyone out, Prescott. I’m speaking this as your friend. I know that you have always dealt with your emotions on your own by locking them in the deepest corner of your heart but now, you have a mate who shares your emotions, your pain, your everything. You’re harming yourself and her, both,” he uttered with a serious demeanor.
“How can I tell her to be okay when I’m the reason behind her pain?” I raked a hand over my hair in frustration and turned my face to the wall.
“You’re the Alpha, Prescott. Suck it up, admit your mistake, and make it up to her. She deserves. better treatment than the silent avoiding treatment you have been giving her for two days now,” Caleb retorted, standing behind me and patting my shoulder lightly.
I couldn’t show her my face after what I did to her. I hadn’t eaten for the past two days, nor did I go into my room. I had asked her sister and friends to give her company and not to leave her alone. I trusted them with her, they loved and cared about my mate more than me.
“Riya said that Matilda might not be able to get pregnant again,” I revealed, clenching my fists by my side.
“What? Is that why you have been avoiding the Luna?” Caleb asked perplexed.
I gave a curt nod and sighed in despair. “I had never felt joy in my life, Caleb. But the day when I realized that Matilda was my fated mate and she was pregnant with my pups, I was the happiest man on this entire planet,”
A fresh scent of lavender flitted through my nostrils and I tilted my head to find my mate standing

on the door of the gym with the tray of food. Our eyes locked with each other’s and her l*ps slightly quivered before breaking into a small forced smile.
“I thought that the mighty Alpha would be hungry after a hardcore workout session,” she chirped, masking her emotions behind her enthusiasm for the food.
“Luna,” Caleb acknowledged her presence and bowed to her before leaving both of us alone.
Talk to her and don’t let her feel lonely, Alpha, he suggested through the link and I appreciated his concern. He was the best friend who always spoke his mind, not being intimidated by my position
or powers.
“I’m sorry, Tila,” I muttered, holding her hands in mine. “L. I just… I couldn’t face you. There is so much guilt and pain clawing in my heart and I didn’t know how to be strong in front of you to console you.
I have built these high walls around myself since I was a kid so I don’t know how to process or deal with my emotions but after Caleb made me realize how much I hurt you by avoiding you since you’re feeling my pain through the bond, I can’t forgive myself. I have given you nothing but pain whilst you have given me nothing but joy.”
I said in one breath with my head lowered as I couldn’t look into her eyes. Exhaling through my mouth, I dropped to my knees and the treacherous tears streamed down my cheeks.
“When Serena told me that you had asked her to sleep in the room, I understood that you needed. space to make a decision,” she said softly, her voice shaking a bit but she was trying hard to sound firm.
“What decision?” I asked, daring to look at her only to find her eyes glossy with tears threatening to
fall.
“You would need another Luna to replace me since I can’t give birth to your heirs,” my mate uttered in a barely audible voice. I could feel her pain through the bond and it was making me feel suffocating because her pain was ten times more than mine.
I shook my head vigorously and held onto her waist. “No. No, Tila. You misunderstood me. I didn’t distance myself to bring another f ucking Luna. I was so st upid and a coward that I couldn’t face you after bringing you so much pain but I swear to the Moon Goddess, not even for once I thought to replace you. You’re the only one who will be by my side till the death do us part.”
She sucked in a deep breath to calm her erratic heart before shutting her eyes and letting the tears fall down her cheeks. She crouched down to my level and k*ssed my forehead. I pulled her to my lap and cupped her cheeks before placing a deep k*ss on her forehead.
“F uck the death. It’s only you even after the death,” I promised her. “Pups or not, you will be my only mate, my only Luna, and my only wife.”
“I wanted to become a mother so badly. I always dreamed of having a happily ever after with my mate,” she said in between her sobs, burying her face in my chest,”
“You will be the best Mom, baby. Don’t lose hope. Riya said that she would try to help us and Moon Goddess can’t be cruel to us. We will have our pups, sooner or later. I promise you that I will make it happen,” I said, stroking her hair and shoulders gently.

We stayed in each other’s arms for a while and cried together, mourning for our loss and comforting each other in silence. The sparks of mate bond rippled through my b*dy and a soothing calmness replaced the anguish.
She had cooked for the first time and though it was half-cooked and half-burnt, I finished it all because my mate had cooked with love, especially for me. She watched me adoringly as I finished the
egg and grilled chicken sandwich.
“I hope that you don’t get food poisoning after
eating my food,” she giggled. “I know that I’m not a
good cook but I wanted to talk to you so I needed an excuse.”
“I would eat anything to see that smile on your face.” I grinned and she blushed, her smile growing wider. “I’ll cook for both of us. You don’t need to cook to talk to me, okay?”
She simply nodded, suppressing her l*ps in embarrassment

Matilda’s smile vanished which told me that Zach had ruind-linked her, too. I intertwined m fingers with hers before dashing toward the hospital with her.
“I’m with you, baby. You’re not alone, I told her via the link as I sensed fear and nervousness from her.
