My Mate's Babies.

Chapter Nine.

Chapter 9.

I blinked my eyes twice before my tears spilled. My mate had marked someone else. He was supposed to be the person who loved me more than anything in the world. He was supposed to be the person who'd do anything for me. He was the person who I'd have our babies with and spend the rest of my life with . . .

But he wasn't.

I dried my eyes the back of my hand and stood up. Right now, I felt completely numb. I walked outside to my balcony and sat there underneath the colourful sky. It was truly a beautiful sight, though I couldn't bring myself to appreciate the scenery or anything anymore for that matter.

Alpha and Claire must've understood that I wanted to be left alone because they didn't follow me. I brought my knees to my chest and wrapped my arms around it. The gentle wind blew my hair softly as I closed my eyes.

If I thought my life was hard before, then I must be really weak. My wolf was crushed after she'd learnt what had really happened, but I think she knew from before. I knew that I had never been good enough for any of my family, but I didn't think I was so bad that life itself hated me and treated me like this.

But right now, all I had to concentrate on doing was looking after my babies and giving them the best possible lifestyle I possibly could . . .

Few days had already passed since I found out that my mate had marked someone else. For the pack's sake I wished that it wasn't Nicole. She would've been a terrible Luna and most people knew that but they were too scared to ever say it to her face.

Since then, I had gotten better. Sure there was that horrible pain everytime he mated with her but it wasn't as bad now as our bond was nearly broken. It was relatively faint and didn't pain me as much as it used to.

That morning after I found out about him, I woke up in an empty bed and later found out that Alpha came to check on me and found me sleeping on the cool ground of my balcony, so he picked me up and settled me onto the bed, as it was bad for the babies and me.

Somehow, the pack found out what Chase had done to me and were giving me sympathetic glances everytime they saw me, and that was except Emma.

She never showed me any pity.at all, but instead tried to take my mind off things- which I was extremely glad for. I hate it when people sent me looks of pity; it made me feel weak and helpless. But Emma, she cheered up me up thoughout the day and helped me forget about everything. We went shopping for me and the babies, had manicures and pedicures, and even went to the cinema. Of course, she paid. She was the best friend anyone could ever have.

The next couple of days went pretty well. We both managed to do some more shopping for the babies, so now they have almost everything they'll need for the first few months. I've been taking online classes since I can't go to school, or I didn't want to.

I guess I'm too scared that I'll just get bullied again. And that would put stress on me, hence affecting the babies. Well, that was just one of my excuses anyways when Alpha told me I had to go to school for the first two months, but after a lot of persuading, he finally gave in.

Today was finally the day of the barbeque and when I would be officially be introduced to the rest of the pack. Honestly, I was both excited and a little nervous. I had met some of them- who lived in the pack house- but not all as they lived in their own, separate homes.

I was scared that I wasn't going to be accepted, and rejected like I had been for most of my life. But then again, I was close to Alpha and Claire and Emma, as well as Conor and Amy. I knew they were all my real family. Claire was like the motherly figure I never really had and the rest of them were like the siblings I wished for in my dreams.
