Chapter Ten

Cherry sighed as Axel curled next to her, one month since she had been kidnapped by her brother, and she could feel herself getting sick. Being away from their mate could kill an Omega like Cherry, but she was fighting to hold on, hoping Finn would find her.

"Geez Cherry, you look like he'll, " Axel said when they woke up from their nap.

"I don't feel right, " Cherry groaned as she turned over, pulling the blanket up over her head.

Axel pulled the blanket down and looked at his sister; she was gaunt and paler than usual. He knew deep down he could be potentially killing his sister, but the idea of her being with anyone other than him was worth the risk. Axel told her to say in bed he would take care of everything. She didn't answer, already asleep before he finished talking to her.

About an hour later, Axel heard a thump coming from the bedroom. He rushed in to find Cherry on the floor, barely breathing. As much as he hated it, he knew what he had to do.

Cherry groaned and rolled onto her side. She smiled, smelling the beautiful scent she missed it.

"baby?" Finn asked, gently brushing the hair out of her face.

"finny? You found me?" She asked, coughing her voice rough and throat dry from not being used.

Finn got up from the chair and grabbed a cup of water with a straw being it back over to her helping her take a sip before setting the cup down on the bedside table. Cherry smiled at him, scooting over so he could get into the bed too. He smiled, careful of her IV. Finn pulled his mate close, sniffing the top of her head, breathing in the beautiful scent that was his mate.

"Axel dropped you off, " Finn whispered.

"Where is he?" Cherry asked, looking up at the man in bed with her.

"They don't know he dumped you outside the door, " Finn said with a growl in his voice.

Cherry stretched and kissed his chin, getting him to look down at her, "I'm sorry, " she whispered as tears filled her eyes.

Finn's heart broke as Cherry bawled into his chest, apologizing about what happened. She didn't fight because she thought he wouldn't hit her. Still, it didn't help; she cried herself back to sleep as Finn held her tight, telling her everything was ok between them; he never blamed her for anything that happened while she was with Axel.

The nurse came in to check on Cherry, saying she was stinking up the whole floor; Finn growled and told the nurse to fuck off; his mate had been through a horrible ordeal and needed to have some compassion. The nurse apologized, saying she had just gotten on and didn't know what ha happened, and the doctor would be down soon to talk to Cherry and Finn.

The doctor finally made his way down to talk to Finn and Cherry. His dad had shown up telling Cherry that everything would be fine, and they would find someone to talk to about whatever happened.

"You're pregnant," the doctor said, looking at the chart.

"What?" they all asked.

"About three months along, it seems," the doctor smiled at Cherry.

Cherry looked up at Finn, "how?" Finn asked, "i mean, I know how it can happen, but we never while she was in heat," he added.

The doctor replied that true Omegas didn't need to be in heat to get pregnant; they are more prone to pregnancy than other Omegas. Finn needed a minute. He left the room. Champ took Cherrys hand and gave it a squeeze letting her know they would talk about things when they got home.
