Luna's Second Chance Beta

5 The Getaway

Emma POV

I am in the kitchen with the omegas organizing menus for this week as I do weekly. I have been trying to stay away from Chase and Mia unless he calls for me. As we are talking a smell hits my nose that makes my stomach roll. I run to the bathroom and puke everything I ate for breakfast. Chrystal comes running with a towel for me. Thank you Chrystal I am sorry about that. "No apologies needed Luna are you sick?" Whatever was cooking in the kitchen just didn't sit right with me. Chrystal smiles at me like she knows a secret. Why are you smiling? "I believe you may be having some morning sickness Luna." I must look horrified for a moment because she begins to apologize. Its ok Chrystal, you just shocked me when you said that. "Is that not a good thing for you to be pregnant Luna?" Of course, it is we have just been trying for so long it shocked me I say and smile at her. Let's finish making the menus so I can go rest. I head upstairs to the spare room and lock the door. This can't be happening I refuse to have a baby with this monster. I head out of my room and down the hall. I compose myself and start toward the stairs to go see Sarah. When I reach the top of the stairs, I hear that voice that makes me sick now. "Love can you come to my office I would like to talk to you." What could he possibly want from me now? I turn and say of course as I walk toward his office.

When I get inside, he sits behind his desk. "How are you feeling love?" Why is he asking me that does he know what happened downstairs? Oh, goddess please don't let him know. I'm fine is that all you needed. "Emma, we used to talk for hours now you can't spare me a few minutes of conversation." "I told you I still love you I don't know why you must be so cold" Chase says. I have done all you asked of me. None of the pack members know of your f**ked up idea of the mate bond. I am still performing my Luna duties. I apologize if I am not the same after what you have done to me. I will never love you again, but I am doing what you have asked. He growls and I know Lucifer is coming to the surface as he still loves me. I am hoisted in the air and slammed to the wall. "Mate I know my human is an a**hole but I never want to hear you say that you don't love us again." Lucifer do you really believe I will love Chase after what he has done. I do love you Lucifer but unfortunately Chase has made his choice. Lucifer hugs me close, and I allow it knowing it isn't fair to punish him. The minute he pulls back, and I see Chase's eyes back to their original color I pull away. "So, you still love Lucifer just not me, you better get over it because we are together until death my love." He goes back to sit behind the desk. I stand there just looking at this man that once held my heart and now I can't stand to be in this room with him. "Now back to the reason I called you Chrystal mentioned you weren't feeling well this morning and I thought maybe you could be pregnant. I could feel my heart fall. I can't even breathe right now. I can't be mad at Chrystal she doesn't know the f**ked up situation I'm in. "Answer me Emma were you feeling sick after you smelled something they were cooking?" Yes, I think it was before I can finish, he says "you will be going to the pack doctor tomorrow for a pregnancy test." I don't think that's necessary. "Enough this is not up for debate I have to attend to Alpha meeting tomorrow morning so you will be going without me but the doctor will be reporting directly to me." Fine I will go are we done here. "Not until you come here and show me you still love me." Shouldn't you go check on Mia and her pup. "She lost the pup last night so you should be happy you still have a chance to care for your own pup." He says it like she and the pup mean nothing he is such a monster. Well, if I didn't feel sick before I do now. I walk toward him to get this over with.

I head to Sarah's cottage we have to make our move tomorrow in case I am pregnant. I knock on the door and Sarah opens up. I tell her about everything that happened this morning. As I sit with Sarah I think about Mia and for one instant my heart breaks for her over the pup. Then I remember all she has done and the pain she caused me. I push down that sympathy and pray to the Moon Goddess to hold her pup close as he is innocent. Sarah hugs me and together we prepare for escape. When I leave the cottage, I connect with Ruby. Ruby, I know you will be hurt when I break this bond and for that I am sorry. "You are the most important thing to me; Lucifer and I have said our goodbyes" Ruby says. I know she says that, but her heart is broken for the bond she is losing.

When I go to bed that night, I see Mia laying toward the wall on the right side of Chase. I still can't bring myself to offer her support. I slip into bed after showering and say a thank you to the Goddess this will be my last night in this hell. "Don't forget your appointment tomorrow love hopefully we will have our heir soon." I hear my sister sob and he doesn't make any move to comfort her. I fall into a restful sleep with hope this will be over soon.

I wake in the morning to an empty bed which I am very grateful for. Unfortunately, it doesn't last when I go into the bathroom, I find Mia laying in the tub. I go to turn around and she calls out to me. Against my better judgment I turn around and look her in the eyes. "He told you I lost the pup, and I am sure your happy." I would never wish for anyone to lose a pup but if you're asking for sympathy, you'll get none here. I prayed for the pup but as far as I am concerned you deserve every bit of pain that you are in. I turn and walk out of the bathroom. I dress in the closet and head out of the room before I have to see her face again. I grab something quick for breakfast and I am so grateful that Chase has already left for his meeting. At 9am I head over to the pack hospital for my appointment. I meet with Elizabeth who handles the pregnancies of the pack. "Good morning, Luna are we ready to see if we are having the pack heir." I smile at her and nod in response. "I am sorry about your sister I was with her yesterday when she lost the pup." Thank you for the sentiment. She draws blood and I wait holding my breath for the results. After a half hour she comes in and I brace myself. "Congratulations Luna your pregnant." I start to cry, and I am sure she thinks these are tears of joy, but they are not. I will love this pup, but I just wish it wasn't his. She informs me she will be calling the Alpha as he is waiting for the results. Elizabeth, do you think you could wait a few hours I would like to set up a surprise for him to tell him myself. She smiles and says "of course Luna, I won't call him till tonight to confirm." I thank her and leave on shaky legs. How could this have happened after all this time and what will he do when he finds out and I'm gone.
