I jumped when the door opened with a bang. I must have fallen asleep. I stood up and readied myself when someone walked into the room.
“Luna, you’re awake. Good. How are you feeling? I brought you
I some breakfast,” the young maid smiled.
“I’m sorry, who are you?” I questioned as I held my belly.
“Lily, keep them in there,” I pleaded as I watched the maid put down the tray. I took in a breath and pushed it out as my belly tightened. I can not go into labor in this place.
“I’m Shea and Alpha Connolly has assigned me to your care, Luna Orion. Anything you need, please ask. He wants you to be as comfortable as possible.”
“Well, I’m still here, so not too comfortable,” I retorted. She smiled awkwardly as she clasped her hands together in front of her.
“I understand this must be difficult for you, Luna Orion, but everything will be okay,” she smiled and winked. Her face fell when I gripped my belly. “Drink some water and rest. I’ll be back soon.”

I let out a groan as soon as the door clipped closed.
“Lily,” I took harsh breaths as I leaned against the bed.

“Drink some water and rest. I’m doing everything I can,” she whined. As soon as the tightness subsided, I picked up the tray and sat on the bed. I sipped the water and placed my feet up.
“Baby, Momma needs you to stay in there a little longer,” I mumbled as I rubbed over my bump. I felt a few kicks and I smiled.
“Blake, I really need you right now,” I whispered.
It didn’t take long for me to fall back asleep. Being in a constant state of fear and panic is exhausting. When I woke, I reached for the bottle of water and found a sealed one and a new tray of food. Shea must have been in earlier.
“I didn’t want to wake you. She came in and switched out the trays. I didn’t feel any danger,” Lily yawned.
“I don’t know if we can trust anyone here. And I’m not going to risk our baby being born here. He will take them away as soon as they are out.” I sighed.
“But then we can shift and I can rip him apart. Right now, there is nothing I can do to help,” she said.
I was on the verge of tears with frustration. Both plans are such a risk. He could kill my baby before I could get a chance to shift. But how can I fight back without the baby getting hurt inside me? 18.07%

I yelled when the door was thrown open. Alpha Connolly marched in with Shea following behind him, keeping her head down while carrying a garment bag. I looked at the alpha and he wore a smirk on his stupid face. I’ve never wanted to punch someone so badly before.
I stood up from the bed and clenched my fists to my side as I sized up the alpha. If I wasn’t pregnant, I would rip his throat out.
“What can I do for you, Alpha?” I grumbled.
“Do I need to remind you of your place, Luna Orion?” I glared at him as he took a step towards me and I stepped back. He smiled at the action, knowing I was scared and there was no hiding it. I had to protect my child.
“Now, with that settled, you will join me for dinner. Shea will help you get ready with a dress I’ve chosen.” He forced Shea to step forward with a tight grip on her arm.
“I don’t know what you think this is, Alpha Connolly, but I’m in no condition to join you for anything, nor do I want to.” This time when he took a step towards me, I didn’t step back. The chuckle that left him had a shiver running down my spine.
I gasped when he gripped my cheeks with his fingers.
“As much as I’m going to enjoy that fighting spirit of yours, I’m also going to enjoy breaking it. No one is coming for you, Luna, so you better get used to me.” He leaned in and sniffed my neck. as he dragged his nose along my skin. “Fuck, you smell good, even with that bastard’s scent coming from you.”

I gasped when he spun me around and shoved me against the wall. I throw my palms out to stop my belly from hitting the wall. The alpha gripped my hips before rubbing himself against me. I screamed when he sunk his teeth into my shoulder. I was left gasping as he removed his mouth.
“You can scream, baby, but no one is going to help you unless I allow it. Now, get cleaned up. You have one hour, unless,” he growled and thankful didn’t get to finish his threat. I’m sure it was the ridged thing pushed against my ass.
“Alpha, sorry to interrupt,” a man cleared his throat.
“One hour, Ryley,” he grumbled before taking a step back.
“Shea, get her ready,” he commanded. I jumped when the door slammed shut.
“Luna,” Shea called out. When her hand touched me, I jumped
away.
My body was trembling and my knees buckled. Shea caught me and helped me to sit on the bed. My lungs constricted, and breathing became difficult.
“Luna, I need you to take big deep breaths for me. You have having a panic attack and it’s not good for the baby. Breathe,” I looked at her, feeling even more panic as I thought about going into labor here. “It’s okay, I know you are scared but I’m going to help you, I promise,” she assured me. I don’t know if she meant she was going to help me get out of here or with the panic attack.

“Let’s get you into the shower. We can’t leave the alpha waiting.”
She helped me to stand and led me into the bathroom. She left me leaning against the counter as she started the shower before getting me a cold bottle of water.
“Drink, please, you and your baby need it. We don’t need you going into labor before we can get you out of here.”
“He will kill you,” I choked as I looked at the young woman who smiled at me.
“There is more than your alpha coming, Luna. We just have to be patient.”
