My unexpected mate

I love you

"Ugh", I groaned as I was met with the brightness of the morning sun. Usually I would have been excited but now that I was pregnant, I was having every mood swings I can ever face in my life.

"Babe, what's wrong?", my mate quietly mumbled as he wrapped his arm tighter around my waist.

Ryder, the baby...", I could feel the pain rising little by little.

"Oh.. I’m sorry my love”", he said guilty, gently placing his hand on my waist instead.

“I still can’t believe you pregnant, love. It’s too surreal”, he whispered, looking at me with his love in his eyes.

“Is that a good thing or a bad thing?”, I questioned, my mood swings coming back.

“Of course it’s a good thing, love. I’m just too happy that I can’t believe it’s actually happening.”, he confesses. Normally, I would have blushed. But in this case, I was the opposite.

“At least one of us is happy.”, I said sulkily. I sighed and got out of his hold. “I’m hungry”

“I don’t want this”, I firmly persisted. As soon as we got into the kitchen, I was met with a gross smell of pancakes.

“Would you like some cereals then, Luna?”, Anna, our chef and cleaner asked.

“No”, I finally snapped.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I was grabbed into my mate’s embrace.

“Babe, are you okay?”, he whispered quietly.

“No. I’m hungry and there’s nothing I want to eat and my mood swings are annoying me.”, I finally confessed as my tears flowed out.

“Mel? What’s wrong?”, said a voice from behind Ryder. I turned my face to be met with one of my best friends and Justin’s mate, Ariel.

“Nothing”, I lied. In truth, I didn’t feel like doing anything.

“C’mon, let’s go watch a movie together.”, Ariel said, pulling me out of Ryder’s embrace.

“NO!”, I yelled at her. “I don’t want to be away from my mate!”

“Babe, calm down”, my mate soothed me.

“What? Are you taking her side now!”, I cried out to him, not knowing what I was doing.

“Ar, I will take her.” Ariel nods and leaves quietly as Ryder hold me bridal style and head out to our bedroom.

“Don’t leave”, I whisper as I felt him trying to get up from our sleeping position. It’s been already an hour since the incident and ever since, we fell asleep together in an embrace. 

Ryder was already 30 minutes late to his pack meeting and me, being the annoying and needy pregnant wife, had to hold him back.

“Babe...”, he sighs, not knowing what to do. I knew he was doing this for the best of me and the pack but I still couldn’t let go of his body.

“Fine, go”, I reluctantly reply as I let go of him and turn my body away from him.

Three seconds passed and suddenly I was held up the same position as before by the same person as we headed down to his office.

Once in his office, he sat me down his lap as he sat on the chair. Not knowing what to do, I covered my face in the crooked of his neck.

“I’m sorry”, I quietly whispered.

“It’s fine, love. I may not know how you may feel but I really am trying to do my best to please you.”, he replied as he kissed my temple.

“I love you”, I whispered quietly and took off running as fast as I can to my bedroom with my blushing face, leaving the shock Ryder frozen on his seat.
