Mate

This chapter is dedicated to yohanasaldana for her encouragment! 😊

Rias pov:
I paced across the room nervously with my hands on my hips. I ran my hand through my hair for the fifth time and sighed as i waited for the three minutes to pass. Gabe was sitting on the sofa with his elbows on his knees, fingers intertwined and pressed to his nose, deep in thought. This could not be happening. We had just recently decided to not have kids yet. I folded my arms across my chest and stared off into space. The room was silent. I only sound i could hear was the 'tick tick' of the clock and our anxious breathing. As i waited i thought about it. Me, a mother? Part of me felt happy that i was carrying my mates child but the other part was me was scare for his or her life. Would i be a good mother? Would they love me? Witbout thinking i placed my hand on my stomach which might have my baby inside it. My head snapped to the test as the stopper went off. I heard gabe stand up too and i took a small step towards it. We both stopped and looked at each other. My eyes met his which were full of tension, yet they held hope too. His gaze fell down to my stomach and his eyes longingly lingered there for a second before they snappe d up to mine. He gave me a short nod and i turned to the test. Taking a deep breath and mentally preparing myself for both the results, i picked up the test and opened my eyes. I did a sudden intake of breath as i took in the results. To say i was disappointed was an understatement. The result was negitive. I stared at the test, somehow wanting to disappear of the shame. Even though i was in bed with my mate without any protection, as i did not take the pills the last time i saw my mother, i could not produce a child. Isn't this what you wanted? I asked myself but why did i feel so.. Hopless. I slowly turned around meeting the expectant eyes of my mate who was standing there waiting for the answer that could change our lives, but sadly that wasn't going to happen. I shook my head at him i knew my mouth would fail to form words. I saw disappointment flash through his eyes but he quickly covered it up with a smile. At that moment i felt like i had nothing to give my mate. A few minutes ago i really did think i had a baby in me. It was the child of the man i loved, and i loved the feeling of it. I suddenly felt empty. I wanted to crawl in my bed and cry. Gabe extended his hand out to me and i grabbed it. He started pulling me downstairs. "Where are we going" i whispered. He gave me another smile. "Tests often do not show true results, I'm taking you to the pack doctor" i didn't reply and let gabe take me to the doctor.

"Luna the results will come tomorrow, until then i want you relax. Don't be under any pressure." Doctor stefan, the pack doctor re assured me. I nodded as me and gabe sat infront of him. He had given me new hope. Maybe there was a baby in me because my condition, which he had checked met with werewolf pregnancy. I had fallen in love with the thought of Gabes child growing inside of me. I wanted a child. I fell in love, thinking there was a possibility that a child was in me however i mentally prepared myself for both outcomes. I got up and gabe thanked the doctor. Once outside, Gabe wrapped his arm around my waist as we walked.
"Can we go for a walk?" I looked up at him. He smiled and kissed my forehead as we walked outside. The weather was a bit cold, but the sun was shining bright and it felt great. We walked through the forest for what felt like hours until i got tired. I sat on a huge rock, my feet dangling in the air as i took off my heels. Women always promise never to wear heels again after we feel our painful feet but heels were something no one could resist.
I sighed and stared off the beautiful lake in front of me. Too much was happening in my life at once. I felt my heart tug at the thought of my parents, who had been murdered mercilessly by the hands of my crazy ex boyfriend.
I felt the tears well up in my eyes as i thought about the last time i saw them. I quickly pushed them away, i had to be strong not only for my mate but also for the child that was possibly growing inside me.
"I've always wanted a daughter" My head snapped up to my mate figure who was standing with his back to me, staring at the lake in front of me. His muscular arms crossed against his chest, i was admiring his back muscles flex with the small movments. "After my parents 'died'" he stretched the word "I wanted some one to love, a part of me wanted to find my mate but a part of me didnt, i always thought everyone would hate me, a cold monster, so i restricted my emotions to very few people" He sighed and even though i couldn't see his face i knew his eyes were black. "When Esme and rayan had a daughter, i always wondered when i would have my own because i knew one thing. If any one made me smile, it was leah's innocence, but then i met you" he turned around and gave me a smile. His eyes held so much love that i melted under his gaze. "I had a tough life ria, the blood of my parents is on my hands" his eyes darkened. I shook my head "You were young, you had no other choice. HE made you do it" My thoughts wandered to the day when he told me the story of his parents. He sighed and ran through his hair. "When i turned Alpha, i began to train pups my self, they were young and anyone could take advantage of them, i may have been cruel, but i always cared for the pups" He always had a soft corner for children and maybe thats why he wanted one too. I got up and wrapped my hands around his waist and kissed his light stubble before laying my head on his chest. He did not waste any second in wrapping his arms around me. I didn't care if we were standing in the middle of a forest. I was in his arms.
Mate.
