“Please, help me… this is too painful. I am in a lot of pain…” Ruby begged him. “Please, stop the pain.


    I am in so much agony.” Ruby cried her heart out. She couldn’t wait for alpha James to think of


    someone to mark her.


    It wouldn’t be an easy thing to do, since the person should be willing to mark her and if he didn’t want


    to, Ruby would be in pain for who knew how long? That bastard mate of her would have done it a few


    more times.


    Ruby was very familiar with his method. He was someone, who wouldn’t be enough get


    it once. He would do it the whole night and Ruby dreaded the thought she would be in this kind of


    hellish pain for a whole night, while he drew pleasure from someone else.


    “You don’t think straight, Ruby,” Alpha James said sternly, he tried to free her grip from him, but he


    couldn’t..


    It was either he didn’t put an effort to free himself from her, or it might be because Ruby held onto him


    so tightly.


    “Please…” Ruby kept pleading with him, she pushed herself from the bed all of sudden and hugged


    him. Her warm, ragged breath against his neck, while her scent assaulted his senses.


    At this point, alpha James couldn’t think straight. His mind was very muddled ever since he walked into


    her bedroom and now, he was faced with this.


    Her pleading kept echoing in his ears and how her body was trembling because of the pain. He felt


    angry for his son to act like that. One time was a mistake, but the second. time, it was simply stupid


    and irresponsible..


    “Please, alpha…” Ruby moved her head, giving her neck to alpha James. “Remark me…


    Alpha James didn’t know what came to him, but he actually considered it. He licked her neck and he


    could taste her sweetness, which made Ruby moaned when his warm tongue caressed her sensitive


    skin. She held her breathe when alpha James put his hand around her body and then tilted her head so


    he would get a better angle to mark her.


    Ruby waited with anticipation. She wondered whether this would be very painful. Would the pain


    increased? Or the remark would alleviate the pain? Ruby didn’t dare to make a spection and when


    alpha James’s canine prated her flesh, Ruby bit her lip to stop herself from screaming and


    moaning at the same time.


    Lc didn’t feel better after she talked with her father, if anything, she felt even worse. Ken didn’t offer


    any new information for her.


    From the look of it, not only Hunter had destroyed his hearing, but he also ‘identally‘, like how he


    put it into word, had created a damage on his brain too.


    From what they could gather. Lc’s mother was most likely still alive, but no one knew where she was,


    since she was banished from her own pack.


    Ken didn’t keep in touch with her too. He most likely didn’t care about her, just like how he didn’t care


    about little Lc.


    “I am going to have him killed two days from now, in front of all the pack member,” Hunter said, as both


    of themid on the bed. Lc snuggled against him, because she felt her emotions were all over the


    ces.


    “Hm…” Lc buried her face against his chest.


    “We don’t need him with anything anymore. He held no more value.”


    “Hm…” Lc mumbled. She didn’t care what Hunter was going to do to her real father. He could kill him


    for all she cared.


    “Tired?” Hunter asked, as he caressed her back in soothing motion.


    “Sleepy.”


    “Sleep then…” Hunter gave her a kiss on her head and then cradled her to sleep. Lc fell asleep very


    fast, in no time, her breathing became even and she had this little snore that Hunter thought very cute.


    “Sleep, my love.”


    Hunter knew that Lc had tried her best to figure out her past and to have someone like Ken as her


    father was truly a mess.


    However, aside from Ken, there was Grace too. Grace didn’t know anything about Lc, more so


    about her mother and she was most likely only got caught in the middle of this situation.


    “Sleep well, my love.” Hunter put the nket over Lc’s figure and then slowly got off the bed. There


    were a lot of things he needed to do and in a few days he would need to go back to Golden w pack


    to sort out a few things.


    He couldn’t bring Lc with him, because of her pregnancy. He wanted her to rest in


    this pack, especially when she didn’t look so thrill to go back to her former pack.


    “I want everything on schedule,” Hunter said to Rye the first thing when he walked out. of the bedroom.


    The gamma had been waiting for him outside and the alpha could. sense him.


    “Okay,” Rye said, yawning. It was already in the middle of the night and he still had a lot. of things to


    do.

    The next day, Lc was busy to prepare a small ceremony to announce her pregnancy. It would be held


    within two dayster, in which was greeted by surprise and many good. wishes for her and the baby.


    There was nothing major that happened during that period of time and Lc felt so happy, like really,


    really happy for the first time. She loved to be surrounded by these people and looked forward for her


    little one toe to this world.


    Raya, Rose and Lena were always by her side. The three of them were her closest friends and they


    were soon inseparable. Most of the time, Lc would tell them to drop the formalities because she


    didn’t want them to address her with her title and they did just that whenever they were alone.


    Aside from Hunter, Lc would entrust her life to the three of them, that was how much she valued her


    friends.


    But, when Lc was three months long, Hunter had returned to Golden w pack.


    “Can’t Ie with you?” Lc pleaded with her eyes. She knew that Hunter would return, but when the


    day came, she felt it was too hard to let him go. She wanted him to stay


    with her.


    “I am sorry, love. I can’t bring you with me.” Hunter knelt down in front of Lc and kissed her t


    stomach. She had not really been showing yet, only a little bump there, as if she just ate too much.


    Lc pursed her lips.


    “I will be back in two months.”


    “I am going to give birth.”


    Hunter chuckled. “We still have around four months to see the little one, right? I will be there with you.”


    He kissed her little bump again.


    The healer nced at Ruby, as she checked on the baby, he had been having a fever, which was not


    normal for a shifter to have, but then a baby shifter was still fragile, they didn’t have the same immune


    system like an adult shifter.


    “How is he?” Ruby asked sternly, she took her baby from his crib and cradled him in her arms when he


    started to cry. “Is he alright?”


    “He will be alright, Ruby. You don‘


    need to worry.”


    “I prefer for you to call me as luna,” Ruby said firmly. She looked at the healer in the eyes and she


    avoided her gaze.


    “Yes, luna.” The healer lowered his head. She was the only one, who knew about this. About how alpha


    James had remarked Ruby.


    It was inappropriate and even more immoral for him to do so, it almost like he was cheating with his


    son’s mate in this regard.


    And of course, luna Jasmine could feel it when alpha James remarked Ruby. She had been kicking a


    fuss to find out the woman that alpha James cheated with, but no one knew about it and the alpha


    himself didn’t open his mouth.


    But, luna Jasmine would have never imagined, even in her wildest dream that her mate would have


    something going on with Ruby.


    “I heard the people from the lycan pack will be here in a few weeks,” Ruby said. “Is that true?”


    “I am not sure, luna, I was not informed about that kind of thing.”
