“I have some good news, Zaia. Sebastian will be so excited. Congratulations, you’re pregnant!” The doctor’s words ring in my mind as I stare down at the test reports once again, as I leave the hospital.

“Sorry!” I say, as I avoid bumping into someone, my heart skipping a beat as I place a hand on my stomach protectively, hurrying towards my awaiting car.

My driver, Ethan, is waiting beside the sleek black car and he opens the door for me, bowing his head.

“Thank you!” I say as I get in gracefully.

“Where to, ma’am?” he asks once he gets in the car.

“Home,” I say, unable to suppress my smile, excitement bubbling through me.

This is actually happening. I’ve been trying for a baby for three years and finally… finally, I am pregnant.

I want to shout it from the rooftop, tell everyone that yes! I’m pregnant with the heir to the pack! But I contain my excitement. I need to tell Sebastian the good news first.

Sebastian is the Alpha of the Dark Hollow Falls pack. It is one of the largest packs on the eastern side of the state.

However, with the large territory also comes the dangerous borders that roam with rogues, ready to tear apart anyone who gets in their way.

Werewolves spend their entire lives searching and hoping to find their destined mates. As for me, I had a crush on Bastien from the moment I had seen him when I was eleven years old.

That crush never went away and when he turned out to be my fated mate, it had been a dream come true and we had married.

He desperately wanted an heir, and which Alpha doesn’t? I had just turned eighteen when I found him, but he was thirty one at the time. Many other alphas have sons who are already being trained to become the next alphas at his age.

“Make haste, Ethan, I have a lot to do today,” I say to the driver as I sit back against the plush leather seat.

Reaching our large gated mansion, I step inside and head straight to the kitchen, my stilettos echoing on the wooden floors. I will cook his favourite pudding and place the reports underneath the plate!
