Chapter 60 Chapter 60 (Part 3)

After that, Ella slipped into a coma. The doctors said considering the

dangerous weakness of her body, it was probably best, however, I

couldn't help but feel responsible for inducing it.

I managed to get her back onto my territory and into the hospital

where the Doctor's immediately whisked her away.

"Alpha," a doctor said to me after approaching me in the waiting room

of the hospital.

"How is she?" I asked eagerly.

"She's severely malnourishment and weak. Her vitals are all over the

place and she’s struggling,” she explained. "And there's something else

I need to discuss but you should come into the office,” she added

looking around the waiting room that I shared with a few other pack

members.

I took a deep breath and ran my hand through my head before

nodding and following her into the office.

"She's pregnant. I presume you know that?" she said.

I nodded, "Of course. I could sense that she was carrying that

motherfucker's spawn almost immediately,” I said.

"She's only two weeks along and after ever everything she's been

through, the child is unlikely to be healthy and is only adding to the

stress on her body," the Doctor said.

I knew exactly what she was insinuating.

"All the more reason to get rid of it," I said. "I wanted it gone anyway."

"Whatever you wish, Alpha, but would the Luna not want a part in that

decision?"

"She is not giving birth to another man's child, especially not fucking

Andrea Martinez's and I am certainly not raising it alongside my own," I

growled. "And you said it yourself. The child is unlikely to be healthy

anyway and the last thing she needs is a pregnancy.”

"Yes, Alpha,” she said nodding her head. "It'll be done immediately.”

I got up to leave but turned just before I reached the door.

"..and put it down as a miscarriage. She doesn't need to know."

She swallowed and nodded again, "Yes, Alpha.”

It was weeks until she woke up. After the abortion and with time, she

stabilised but I still couldn't bring myself to leave the hospital for long

and I spent hours just sat by her as she slept.

The kids didn't understand of course which only made it harder. Whilst I

didn't want to keep them away from their Mother, confusing and

upsetting them by bringing them to see her in this way didn't feel right

either so I kept them away from the hospital mostly in the care of my

Mom or Luca. They asked questions and missed her of course but

seemed happy enough.

There was no progress in South America. Martinez had frustratingly

slipped off the face of existence along with Luciano and everyone else

associated. It was severely frustrating and instead of relaxing in, it put

everybody anxiously on edge. We knew we hadn't seen the last of him

and that this was far from over yet and the anticipation of when, where

and how he would rear his ugly head was agony.

The pack tried to go on as usual but we couldn't ignore the shadow

over us and with Ella still in the same condition, morale was low.

It was a dark time for Stella
