Alpha 4

Natalia’s POV

When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a hospital cabin. The last thing I recalled was a discomfort in my stomach. Panicked, I sat up and put my hand

“Don’t worry.” Dr. Reid’s voice met my years. “Your babies are totally fine.

As I turned my head to see him scanning what looked like reports.

“D–did Adrian bring me here?” I inquired about him.

He placed the papers on the tiny table that was located close to the bed, then turned to approach me. “Yes, but he’s already gone.”

“Does he know?” I asked, trying not to let terror come through in my voice.

“Not if you didn’t tell him.”

I exhaled, and my body relaxed. However, at that moment, at thought occurred to me.

Doctor Ried was the chief physician at the pack hospital. So, he close to Adrian in some way. In the future, he would be likely to share the news of my c

“Dr. Ried, can I request something of you?”

“Of course.”

“Please, don’t tell Adrian about my babies.”

His eyebrows lifted. “You haven’t said anything to him yet?”

“No, and I will never will.”

“But, Natalia, they’re Adrian’s heirs. The future of this pa-”

“No. He’ll never accept them, which means I need to shield them from him. I’m begging you, if you want to keep them safe, please don’t tell him.”

He remained silent for a long, unsettling moment, and I couldn’t read his expression. But then he nodded with a furrowed brow, looking worried for me. “A

I shook my head. “I’m going to leave the pack.”

His eyes widened before he reigned in his shock. “But that means you’ll turn into a rogue. That’s risky to do so.”

“Yes, but I have no choice.”

He shook his head. “Natalia, given the current circumstances, you must proceed with extreme caution.”

“I know. But it’s better than being here in danger and pain.”

Shortly after my discussion with Dr. Ried, I left the pack hospital. Since Adrian was the one who brought me there, I looked for his car:

He’d given it to me to use over the years. But I couldn’t locate it. I was also unable to call a cab without my phone. Thankfully, I eventually spotted one an

When I instructed the driver to take me to the pack house, I noticed a hint of fear shone in his eyes. “Pack house?” he questioned. skeptically, obviously

Undeterred, I politely reiterated my request.

When the cab arrived at the pack house’s central gate, the security guards halted the velficle and started inspecting it. To my surprise, they bowed

upon realizing it was me. The cabbie was taken aback as well.

A moment later, they opened the central gate. With excitement in

like pack house at least once. I couldn’t believe I’d be leaving that dream location soon.

After the cab stopped, security guards who were standing there hurried to the

entrance to open the car door for me. It wasn’t until then that I realized I had no money. One of the

guards settled the fare, and I expressed my gratitude before proceeding into the house.

Inside, the servants inside looked at me and bowed, then offered me a seat in the living room.

“Where is Alpha Adrian?” I asked. “Please call him and tell him I need to talk with him. It’s urgent.”

She went upstairs to call Alpha.

As I waited, Alpha Adrian’s father, Alpha Lucas Miller, confidently descended the stairs. A strapping man in his late forties, he looked strong enough to ru

I stood up and bowed. “Alpha.”

He was none other than Alpha Lucas Miller.

Alpha Miller had never failed to treat me with kindness. He frequently expressed his admiration for my generosity and the exceptional management skills

“My dear Natalia, why do you look so downtrodden? Did Adrian bully you again? I will scold that rascal today,” he said in a ripe rage

tone.

“We’re getting divorced each other, Alpha,” I said to circumvent any action he might take.

His eyes widened. I could understand. Surely, this wasn’t news he

Members were required to see both Alpha and Luna only if they needed to dissolve their connection with the pack, so I said, “And I need Luna here too.”
