The Alpha's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 371: IF YOU EVER CHANGE YOUR MIND

”What happened to you?” Jasmine asked him, terribly confused and worried .

”I’m fine.” He did coldly and ignored her.

He turned to the woman. ”Is she done here?”

”Yes she is.” She replied. ”But she needs to be careful and well taken care of. No stress. All that extra work she had been on, it needs to stop. It sound only make matters worse.”

”I don’t care.” Xaden said. ”She is so fucking stubborn that I regret the day I ever met her. It’s my pack whether she is going to be scrubbing and cleaning floors heavily pregnant is none of my fault. She wants the baby and so she has to handle it. Work or no work. I owe you for her treatment.”

”No you don’t.” The woman said. ”For the coming baby. It’s free.”

He started to leave and then the woman pulled him aside and began to speak to him in undertones.

Jasmine rubbed her arms unsure of what to do.

Unsure of whether she was going to be leaving his pack and finding her way on her own or he still intended on keeping her.

The woman turned to Jasmine. ”I will come by, by the end of next week to check up on you and see how well you are faring. Remember if you eventually don’t want to keep the pregnancy it’s not too late.”

Jasmine started to say she doubted she would change her mind and the woman stopped.

”I’m not saying you would. I am just saying in case you do.” She said. ”And just make sure it’s before it gets to three months. Three is the latest. Okay?”

Jasmine nodded clutching the small bag where her medications were and nodded. ”Okay. Thank you.”

Jasmine started to leave.

”You asked where you had seen me before?” The woman asked. ”I am Marie. We had seen a couple of times during the halo festival.”

And it instantly hit Jasmine.

So THAT was where she had known her from.

She was the one who had been looking at her in an odd way .

”I am also the one who saved you and kept you alive when you were almost dead.” Marie explained.

”I never had the opportunity to thank you for that.” Jasmine stated. ”Thank you.”

Marie nodded and the waved her hand at the door, stating they could leave.

Xaden walked to the door and opened it for Jasmine shocking her.

She mumbled an uncertain thank you and went out of the door.

He followed her out of the room and she reduced her steps.

She saw that there was only one horse and she swallowed heavily.

”We only have one horse?” She asked him.

”Yes.” He said barely glancing her way as he fixed up the saddle.

When he was done, he put his arms around her waist and gently hoisted her on the back of the horse.

In a split second he had joined her and she could feel his groin against her.

She tried to remove her mind from the thought and then he wrapped his arms around her as he held the reins of the horse.

The horse began to gallop and she started to feel herself become nauseous again.

She was too scared to tell him that she suspected she was about to puke so she kept her mouth shut and forced herself to control her body.

She still could not believe it.

A little pup?

She started to wonder if it was a girl or a boy.

She knew that some wolves preferred male pups to retain their name and keep the pack stronger.

But she didn’t care.

Whichever one came she would love with everything in her.

Xaden remained quiet refusing to say a word.

She said nothing either, too scared to speak and too worried to hear the words he would say.

He didn’t want her baby,

He had made it clear.

If not for the woman, he would have accused her of betraying him and sleeping with another wolf.

And for whatever reason he obeyed the words of the woman.

He was always ready to point out that she was a liar.

She sighed to herself and wrapped her arms around her tummy.

She felt a wave of nausea and knew instantly that she was about to throw up.

She felt it come up her throat and she hurriedly motioned to him.

”What?” He asked.

She pointed her full mouth and then he swore.

He hurriedly brought her down to her feet and she raced to the nearest bush and hurled everything out of her system.

She kept on throwing up until she didn’t feel the need to.

When she was done she felt so weak and leaned against the bark of a tree.

She breathed heavily and then he handed her his water gorge.

”Here.” He offered.

She quietly said. ”Thank you.”

And used the water to wash her mouth clean.

Then she poured some on her face before drinking it down.

”How do you feel now?” He asked.

She felt her stomach and gave herself a minute to breathe and said. ”I’m okay now. Thank you.”

He received the water gorge and then said. ”When you feel better we would resume riding.”

”Are we going to tell the others?” She asked him curiously

She had been thinking about it for a while now.

What would they all think when they found out that she was pregnant?

Would that increase her enemies or would that make them finally fall in love with her?

He was quiet at first. ”I’ll make that decision by the time we get back home.”

”So what do I say when Fiona and Loren asks Can you ride now?”

She nodded and then he gently led her to the horse, before he hoisted her on the horse.

This time he was more gentle with the ride and frequently keeping an eye on her.

She had never received such attention from him and it made her very uncomfortable.

Soon they reached the gates of their pack and then the massive gates were pulled up.
