My eyes fluttered open and I closed it back due to the intensity of the light. I opened my eyes again this time, more slowly than the first time until I was able to adjust to the brightness.

I looked around and saw that I was in an unfamiliar room, painted white. A drip was hanging and connected to my body. At first, I thought I was in a hospital ward, but I knew that wasn’t the case because where I was looked more like a room than a ward.

“You’re awake, “I heard a familiar voice and I turned my head to look at the person, but I didn’t know who he. was: He had been in this room even before I woke up, which meant that he was the one who brought me here, but which pack are we now?

“Who are you?” I asked him and he frowned at me.

“I feel slightly offended by that question. Don’t you remember me?” He asked, coming closer to me and I flinched. I tried to recall all that happened and soon the memories flooded into my head, causing a headache.

I stared at the man, observing him. His chiseled black hair and facial features didn’t look like that of a kidnapper, so my mind settled into one thing alone,

You must be their boss, “I pointed out and he creased his brows, acting oblivious like he didn’t know what I was talking about.” You can’t fool me by trying to act innocent, you are their boss. Are you glad now, you have finally gotten me,” I snapped, my eyes getting teary.

Young lady, you need to calm down. I am not anyone’s boss, I am John. I saved you from those men who were trying to attack you. You begged me to save you, remember?” He asked and I stared at him warily. I do know that I asked someone to save me, but I didn’t know if he was truly the one or if I could trust him.

Why did you save me then? You don’t know me and you saved a total stranger, putting your life at risk,” I asked and he shrugged.

“You were someone who needed to be saved, I couldn’t let you die by their hands when you probably did nothing to them,” he replied nonchalantly. He was acting so suspicious, I was beginning to get scared as I was alone in the room with him.

“You stare at me like you don’t believe what I’m saying, “he pointed out and I nodded in affirmation. There was no need for me to try to hide the truth, I was scared of him.

“I am in an unfamiliar room with a stranger, I believe every lady in my position will be just as scared as I am, “1 replied and he nodded.

Of course, it won’t be that easy to believe that, but I saved you, I shouldn’t be painted as the bad person. If you want, I can take you to where the bad guys are currently,” he offered, but I instantly shook my head, rejecting his offer.

You are being too blunt for someone who should be scared. Those men are capable of doing hurtful things, I hope you were not in danger because of me?” I asked, concerned about filling my voice and he chuckled, making me wonder what was so funny.

“You don’t need to be worried about me, I can handle myself. And as for the men, I have taken care of them, so you don’t need to be worried about them any more,” he assured and I stared warily at him.

So, you’re saying you are not their boss?” I asked and he nodded his head in affirmation.

I am not, I have arrested their boss already, so you don’t need to be worried about that,” he replied, defending himself and I nodded, having no other option but to believe him.

“Thank you then, for saving me, “I appreciated. There was no use of accusing him, as long as I was free, then I had no problems with anyone.

“It’s nothing, you’re the one I should be thanking. I was able to catch those men because of you, we have been searching for them for a very long time now,” he explained and I nodded, feeling glad that I was able to help in catching criminals.

Suddenly, the door opened and a doctor entered the room, bowing at the both of us.

“Alpha, the result is out,” she said, handing him a chart which he collected.

“Alpha?” I asked, my eyes widening slightly and he looked at me. For a moment, I saw a flash of smirk on his face, making me sneer at him. Asshole.

“Yes, I am Alpha John of the Greenwood Pack, he introduced and I twitched my lips, not wanting to say anything more rude than I have before. So, I was saved by an Alpha?

who you were, I’m sorry, “I bowed slightly at him.

“I didn’t know who you were,

“It’s fine. You didn’t know because I didn’t tell you my identity,” he smiled softly at me and I refused the urge to sneer at him again.

Since he said it was fine, I decided not to bother myself about it anymore, it wasn’t like I owed him any explanation in the first place.

When he saw that I wasn’t saying anything anymore, he began reading the chart. He furrowed his brows while reading, before raising his head to look at me.

”

She is pregnant?” He asked, not taking his eyes off me and the doctor nodded in affirmation. I knew I was pregnant but it still sounded so new and strange in my ear when I heard him say that. But it had been confirmed, I was indeed pregnant.

“Yes, Alpha,” the doctor responded. There was this look in his eyes that I couldn’t decipher, but it made me feel like he wasn’t happy with my pregnancy.

She is carrying a twin baby,” the doctor added and my eyes widened in surprise,

“Ehn?!” I yelled in surprise.
