Damien’s POV
I had glared at her, my eyes briefly eyeing her body. I would admit she had a nice body for an omega, but that was about it. I couldn’t understand why a Damien falcon would be mated to someone as lowly as an omega. Anger flashed through my body, and I sighed as I remembered the hot, passionate s*x we had that night. It was something different; I couldn’t explain how it made me feel. s*x with Isabella isn’t like that.
I punched at the wall as anger filled me again. I hate how she made me feel. Today I am going to be coronated as the Alpha King, with Isabella by my side. I need to forget all about that night and her, but the thoughts still linger in my mind.
Was I really that cruel to her? Did she deserve it? No, I mean yes. How could I be mated with a low omega? It would weaken the Blackmoon pack, and if our enemies hear about it, they will try to go to war with us to dethrone us as the strongest pack. What was the moon goddess thinking by pairing me up with her?
“Hey! You look so handsome in that. My mother, Luna, said as she walked into the room that I was wearing a traditional robe my father had passed down to me. You look just like your father."
As I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I couldn’t agree more; I had a striking resemblance to him. I wish he was here today to see me get coronated as the Alpha King of the Bloodmoon Pack.
“I need you at your strongest. The enemies are looking for any means to find a weakness in this pack. The Redmoon Pack attack is just to destabilize us internally. They will try to test us again. Do not show them any weakness. Do you understand me?
“Yes Luna.” I replied. Where is Isabella? I asked her. If there is anyone I would have as my mate, it should be her. She is strong, firm, and someone fit to rule by my side.
“She would be here soon. Now let’s go show them how strong you are!” She said, as I turned to the door, then I turned to look at her.
“I, Damien Falcon, I am the Alpha king of the Bloodmoon pack, and I would slay down anyone that tries to bring down the Bloodmoon pack.” I roared.
“Alpha King Damien!” She cheered.

Amelia’S POV
I’d done it again. I couldn’t stop messing up these days; you’d think I'd have learned by now.
I knew I didn’t have time to set the table before pulling the roast out of the oven, but my father insisted, and the roast burned. It was completely ruined, and now there was nothing for my family to eat for dinner.
''Look at this mess!'' My stepmother shouted in my face.
‘’ I’m sorry, I sobbed. I already knew what this meant.
I kept my eyes down as I kneeled down in front of my father. She was already angry, and I didn’t want her to think I was challenging her.
‘’Sorry doesn’t fix this charred mess!' She snorted.
It was true; I had really done it this time; the whole dinner was ruined, and it was all my fault. I deserve the punishment I would get, but that didn’t make me any less scared.
What do you think a proper punishment should be for you? There’s nothing you can do, right? Not with your status, I don’t see you being good for anything, do you? She asked as she slowly advanced towards me. I bit my lips as a shudder went through me. I wondered what she would do, but with past experience, I knew I wasn’t going to come out of this without screaming and begging for my life.
She burned the roast; let’s see how fast she burns'', my brother said as he smiled a sickening smile.
My stepmother smiled as she dragged me towards the stove. I tried pleading with my eyes towards my father to stop this madness, but he simply looked away. My heart sucked. I thrashed as she dragged me to the stove and turned it on. I was surprised she knew how to work it. But that surprise didn’t last long. I squirmed in her hands as she pressed my hand down to the burning flames.
A scream tore out of me as my flesh burned away.
‘’Please!’ I begged them. ‘’Please stop!.
My father and Hunter, my stepmother, all gathered around me, laughing and pointing at me as I cradled my arms in pain. I shut my eyes and closed my ears, and I let out a loud scream.
I jolted awake from my nightmare, and I wrapped my hands around myself. This past few days, I kept getting nightmares upon nightmares. I could barely sleep. I spend my whole night crying, and the next morning I wake up really late and weak.
Camila had taken me to a doctor on the outskirts of the pack. The reason is that she feared I might be pregnant, and she doesn’t want someone who could recognize us. The doctor had confirmed her suspicion; he told me I was two months pregnant.
What will you do now? Camila had asked me, but my brain wasn’t functioning. I was dumbfounded and scared. If my father and his wife find out about this, they will surely kill me.
I don’t know Camila. I had finally replied to her. I told her who the father was, and she was a bit disappointed in me. I mean, after the humiliation he put me through, I still opened my legs for him.
My belly is getting bigger now, and I don’t know how long I can hide this from everyone. My stepmother is already suspicious of the way I wake up really late, and I keep messing up the meals because I can’t taste anything.
I brought out the piece of clothing I use to tie my tummy so it would appear flat, and just as I pulled my clothes up, the door flung away. I had gotten caught.
I quickly pulled my cloth down, but it was too late; she had seen the bump. Her eyes were widening as her mouth flung open.
“Amelia! You are pregnant?” She grabbed me and dragged my dress up, revealing the bump that had formed. A slap landed on my face before I could talk, and she dragged me out of the house, pulling my hair.
“Can you see? She is pregnant! A few of our neighbors gathered around as I tried to pull my dress down. You slut! You just turned eighteen, and now you are pregnant! People started to murmur and cuss at me as I cried. The humiliation I felt was second to none.
Let’s see what your father does when he comes back, she said before pushing me into my room. When my father returned, he yanked my door open, and a punch landed on my tummy. I held my stomach in pain.
So you have decided to disgrace me, stupid b***h! Who is the father? He asked, but my lips were shut.
As he didn’t get any reply from me, he finally pushed me out of the house and told me not to ever set foot on his doorstep. With just a few clothes and no money, I knew I had to go see Damien to tell him I was pregnant.
………….
“I will like to see Alpha Damien!” I said to one of the guards as I got to the front of the palace.
“Go away! Who are you to request to see the Alpha King!” One of the guards pushed me away, and then he returned to his post.
"Please, I have something I need to tell him. It’s urgent!” I pleaded, but they didn’t even look at me. Just then, a young little girl was going in; her outfit was that of a maid. I quickly grabbed her gently and took her to the side. Her eyes were widening as she looked at me in shock.
"Oh, I don’t mean to hurt you. I just need a favor, please.” I said before letting go of her arms slowly.
“Please, I can’t help you; let me go.” She said panicking.
“I just need you to help me deliver a message to Alpha Damien quickly.”
“Alpha Damien," she said slowly. Probably thinking of how I know him personally.
“Please tell him I am pregnant and carrying his child, and I won’t leave here till I hear from him. I have nowhere else to go.” I stated that I was fighting back tears.
“You are pregnant for Alpha Damien!” Her eyes went wild.
“Hush!” I planted a finger on her lips. Please, I really need your help.” She finally went in after she agreed to deliver my message to Alpha Damien.
She returned much later, and as I saw her approaching me, I jumped up in anticipation of what she was about to say.
“He says you should meet him at the burning point. He will be there soon.” She said before turning to look back as if she were trying not to get caught.
“Thank you so much.” I said smiling at her, and she returned the smile before turning to leave.
“Burning point!” I said out loud, trying not to forget the place. I chanted the words as I turned to leave. I caressed my belly as I walked on.
I am carrying Alpha Damien’s child.
