It's been a week since... that day and I have locked myself in my room and only let Tyler in.

He would get me food and every now and then I would break down crying. I felt so useless and pathetic and dirty.

Once I woke up the day Daniel rejected me, the first thing I noticed was that my brother was lying on my bed with me and he seemed to be in a protective stance even though he was asleep. I gently nudged him and he woke up immediately.

"What's wrong? What happened? Victoria? Wait... What?" He shouted at first but then gradually he sounded confused. "What are you doing here Tyler? I thought you had to run border patrol today?" I softly asked him.

"Zoe and her clique came in while I was putting you down. You were asleep and they were here for their 'daily load'. You had too much to deal with and I am honestly sick of remaining in the shadows and not being able to protect my sister. I do NOT consider Zoe my sister. She is a disgrace to the family. I feel bad for her mate... whoever he may be. Anyway, there is something me, mum and dad never told you but well we come from Alpha bloodlines... Dad was to be handed the Alpha title and mum the Luna title when rogues attacked our pack and killed everyone. Mum and Dad and relatives in other packs are the only one who survived. Alpha Daniel's father and our father had been friends and since our previous Beta had died in another rogue attack, the pack took our parents in and they were given the Beta title. So well I am giving up my Beta title and I am going to start my own pack. I guess the reason I am telling you this is because I want you to come with me. I can protect you there and Zoe will not be coming with us. I give a rat's ass as to what happens to her. So, I will be going out a lot and I am recruiting peaceful rogues and those whose packs were destroyed. This is why I had been gone the previous whole week. I have a few members ready to join and we have found a suitable spot for the territory. Come with me Tori, once mum and dad return I will ask them too... Run away with me Tori, I will protect you. I will fulfill all my duties as your elder brother. I will protect you better!" Tyler finished his little rant and I could feel tears pooling in my eyes.

"And I swear Tori if anyone touches you ever ag-" He didn't get to finish his sentence because I cut him off and flung myself into his arms letting sobs take control of my body.

"You're the best brother I could ask for Tyler. I get why you, mum and dad kept the secret and I do not hate you guys for it. And yes, Tyler I would go with you, join YOUR pack and if you will ever need me, I will be here. And thank you! Thank you for protecting me, ALPHA." I started with a grateful tone and emphasized the words 'your' and 'alpha' with a smug expression on my face.

That is how; I ended up here with my bags packed and very grim news. I am pregnant. Shocker right? This is... horrible.

But no matter how much I hate its father, I will never hate my baby. Never! I will be the mother and father this child deserves.

I will take some tips from my own mother and make sure that this baby is taken care of. You would ask, how do I know I'm pregnant?

What happened was that I had had one of the bad days and I was lying in bed, completely exhausted when I heard it. A beat.

I had held my breath for a few seconds before I heard it again, another beat. I had taken a pregnancy test the same day. It also explained why I kept throwing up all that I ate. I just assumed it was a side-effect of being rejected.

I was soon broken from my thoughts as a knock resounded through the door. I knew it was Tyler from his scent.

I had yet to tell him the news but I hoped he would be happy and not disgusted with me. I crept up to the door and unlocked it, letting Tyler in.

Today was also the day we were supposed to run away at midnight exactly. Tyler came in and looked at me with carefully held back excitement.

He saw my packed bags and broke out into a huge grin. "You ready sis?" He questioned. "As ready as I'll ever be." I simply replied. "Ummm... Tyler I have something to tell you... ummm... I... it's... it's just that... I'm pregnant." I finally spoke.

"You're what!?"
