Fated For Lycan's Luna
Chapter 95

Blake's POV

“Lycan King Blake, your Luna came back to the red moon pack pregnant, yet why did I not see you coming to us to take her back at once?!”

'What did she say?’

I froze, my entire being shackled by an icy grip, rendering me motionless in the face of this incredulous revelation. It was as if the world had turned to stone, freezing the very essence of my existence. For the first time, I seemed to have crashed down. Never before had my mind been so bereft, a barren wasteland where thoughts dared not venture.

The words hung in the air, like a suspended melody that refused to resolve. They swirled in the hollow caverns of my consciousness, echoing wildly in my mind and defied comprehension.

“No... could it be my imagination?’ I thought to myself. Those words... they were like a twisted mirage, a phantom whisper conjured by the capricious whims of my imagination?

'Ya, hah! Surely, my ears had deceived me,’ I started to say.

Yet, as the weight of those words settled upon my soul, doubt gave way to a fragile hope.... a hope that was like a bud waiting to form into a flower in the embrace of spring

“No... it can’t be... can it?” My hands started to tremble. “No... can I even... dare to entertain that it's real?” How could it be? How could the universe conspire to bestow such a profound blessing upon someone like me?

My beloved mate, Chloe, was she truly carrying life within her womb? The tendrils of hope snaked through the chambers of my heart, a tender flame that refused to be extinguished.

Suddenly, images of a future, painted in vivid hues, danced before my mind's eye.

Tiny white hands that gripped my calloused finger... an innocent face similar to the woman who I loved the most...

Upon that thought, my eyes turned cold as I looked upon Vanessa.

This woman... is she playing right now?"

Time, once a relentless tide, now stood motionless, caught in the entanglement of my disbelief. The seconds stretched into an eternity, the world suspended in a transient limbo, as I turned my gaze to Vanessa, the person who said this startling revelation.

“P-pregnant? Chloe is pregnant?” I asked with a bewildered tone.

I locked my gaze on Vanessa, my eyes transforming into icy orbs that mirrored the chill in my heart. My brows tightened. Vanessa, a deceitful being, was someone who inflicted immense pain upon Chloe. During the Chloe's entire childhood and until the time she left the Red Moon Pack, Vanessa caused her endless suffering.

How could such a cunning individual suddenly claim that Chloe was pregnant? Could it be that she is just trying to incite chaos between Chloe and 1? The mere thought sent a surge of anger coursing through my veins.

Vanessa could sense the intensity of my stare and immediately froze. Although she was trying to hide it, her shoulders started to shake.

Fear enveloped her, casting a shadow over her face, as she began to shiver involuntarily. Clearly, she was afraid of me.

I continued to peer deeply into her eyes, searching for any trace of truth or deception. There was something... something that finally clicked within my mind.

It dawned on me that Vanessa, in her state of terror, should possess no courage to fabricate such a lie to my face. The fact that she cowered before me only strengthened my belief that she had no audacity to incite something. Thus, I froze once more.

If Vanessa did not lie... then could it really be?

I wasted no time and turned to look at Chloe. I was desperate... desperate to seek even a glimpse of truth within her eyes.

“Chloe, is that true? You are pregnant?” I asked once more, this time, my voice shook.

Chloe immediately froze and looked away, obviously avoiding my eyes. When I saw her reaction, my heart started beating hard, each beat resonated within my chest, pounding against my ribs like a drum of anticipation.

I persisted and continued looking at Chloe, studying her reaction. As seconds ticked by, her body grew increasingly rigid, her movements stilted. Then, my eyes caught a subtle change—a hint of red at the tips of her ears. My heart pounded harder, threatening to burst through the confines of my chest.

I recognized that look... that telltale sign of Chloe attempting to conceal something! It was a look I had witnessed countless times before!

In that moment, a realization struck me with the force of a thunderclap. There was only one answer to the burning question that had consumed my thoughts. Chloe... she was hiding something from me...

Chloe... my beloved mate...

She's truly pregnant!

Emotions surged within me. It seemed like there was a symphony of joy, awe, and trepidation, inside my heart.

The depth of my love for Chloe blossomed into a kaleidoscope of colors, saturating every fiber of my being. A tremor of tenderness coursed through my veins, as if the very essence of my existence had become interwoven with the miracle growing within her.

Suddenly, it seemed as if everything that happened before this disappeared. The shock and heartache I endured when I learned that Chloe went away. The difficulties I have faced when the Silver Pack was attacked. The pain that I endured when Chloe refused to return with me.

Everything seemed to be erased, and all that was left was my happiness upon knowing that my mate was pregnant with my child.

Vanessa, who noticed that Chloe refused to look at me, suddenly sneered.

“Hah, Lycan King, did your Luna not tell you?” She hissed, making everyone, except for me, look at her.

Seeing that she got most of the attention in the room, Vanessa started to sneer as if she was happy about something. Then, she could not endure it anymore and laughed out loud.

Her shrill laughter filled the room, it was unbearably more awkward. I knitted my brows and finally sent her an icy glare.

Vanessa knew she got my attention and put her finger on her lips and started tapping it. She gave us a look as if she was in deep thoughts.

“Perhaps that is because the origin of the pregnancy is not honorable at all?” She said, making me turn stiff.

"Who knows, her shameful pregnancy might even be the reason why she was running to the Red Moon Pack so suddenly?” She added before giving Chloe a look of disbelief.

“Perhaps she was hiding her because she was afraid that you would find it and could not dare to receive your wrath!” She continued with a loud voice.

My eyes grew colder, the icy flames within them intensifying.

“Hah? How dare she?

“How dare Vanessa... this woman, utter those nonsensical words? How dare she try to besmirch Chloe's reputation...”

“And more importantly... how dare she assume the child that Chloe's is carrying isn't mine!"

The audacity of her actions ignited a fire within me, a fire that fueled my determination.

Without a moment's hesitation, I sprang into action, propelled by a mix of anger and protectiveness. The room seemed to hush, swallowed by an eerie stillness, as if sensing the gravity of the impending encounter. Each step I took was measured, deliberate, as I closed the distance between myself and Chloe.

At that moment, I did not know what my expression looked like. There were many mixed emotions that I felt inside and a thousand thoughts inside my mind...

There were many things that were uncertain. But when I opened my mouth, I said the words... the only words that were certain.

“No need to doubt my Luna's pregnancy... the child in her womb, is definitely mine!”
