“Please don’t do this.” I begged over and over, but no one was listening. I thrashed against their hold, but nothing. “I am your Luna!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, but gales of laughter from the other room broke what little fight I had left. “Dr. Luke, please!” I begged once more, my voice hoarse. “Kill it once it’s done. Toss her out. She’ll have to survive on her own from here on out.”My husband, Alpha Brandon, commanded. He can’t mean that. This was our baby.“Our baby!” “Is a mistake from the Moon Goddess. One I will rectify.” Brandon’s voice echoed from the other room. He wouldn’t even face me. “Now do it. That’s an order.” “Yes, Alpha.” It was a mistake to come here. It was a mistake to give him everything. “Oh, and doctor?” Her sickly sweet voice called from the other room. My stepsister, Shannon. I gritted my teeth. “Don’t use any anesthetic. She should feel everything.” “Yes, Luna.” The doctor turned back to me with sad eyes, but when he picked up the scalpel, I knew I was screwed. I’m sorry, baby. Momma couldn’t save you. She wanted you so, so much. I tried to rub my stomach, but the nurses had strapped me down. When the doctor approached, I realized he was using a silver blade. “Silver?” My whisper was barely audible, but he nodded. I knew then that Shannon didn’t want me to survive. She wanted my life so badly that she lied about me cheating on my mate, showing photos as proof. But I had never touched another wolf. I never would. Not after this betrayal. Why, Moon Goddess? Why would you give him to me just to take him away? My pup… I cried silently as the doctor cut into my abdomen, and I felt my baby thrash inside. He knew. He knew it was too early to be born. This was a death sentence for both of us. “Bring me the body of the pup.” “Yes, Alpha.” I felt every slice as he cut deeper. The pain was unbearable, and soon, I couldn’t take it anymore. I screamed as blood trickled down my side, each drop hitting the floor. I thrashed, but the silver had made me weak. I’m sorry, baby. They weren’t trying to keep me alive, which I expected, but I wished wasn’t true. I used to love my mate, but I felt that love die in me when I saw my pup ripped from my belly. “Please, let me hold him… just once.” I tried to move my arms, but they were still tied down. The doctor, who was shedding tears, brought my pup and laid him on my chest. He was perfect. I rubbed his scent on my face and mine on his. He would forever be a part of my soul. My missing piece. “Doctor, now!” “Yes Alpha.” The doctor picked the baby up and rushed out, leaving me spread open to the elements. I felt my life slipping away as the door swung opened. Shannon came in, her smug smile firmly in place. “I told you I would take your life, Amy. I would have your mate. And I have, over and over, since he found out about your betrayal." Shannon walked over and laid a kiss on my face as I snarled weakly. “He is perfection. And don’t worry. I will give him another son.” She laid her hand on her stomach and I started to laugh. “What’s so funny?” “I can smell the Beta on you." I coughed, blood spilling from my mouth, "That’s Derek’s child… and it’s a girl. Nice try though.” She growled and raised her hand, elongating her claws to deliver the final blow, but the door was ripped open and my mate, the man I now hated most in the world, stepped inside. His eyes were blood-red, and I started to laugh again. “You b***h!” He snarled, striking out and whipping Shannon to the other side of the room. “Brandon!” Shannon shrieked as she hit the wall. “What’s wrong?” She staggered to her feet, but more blood dripped out of me and I closed my eyes. “You lied!” He roared, shaking the walls as his aura struck out, but I could barely feel it. I felt the silver traveling in my veins getting closer to my sluggish heart. “This was my pup. I can smell me on him. He was mine.” Brandon’s eyes grew redder as the tears gathered. “You said she cheated on me and that it wasn’t my pup.” “She did cheat on you. I guess… I was wrong about the pup.” “You said you smelt it.” From the sound of it, he lunged for her again, but him clutching our baby in his arm was the last thing I saw. And I wanted to never see Brandon again. He did this to us. Not Shannon. She played her part well, sure, but Brandon… He didn't believe me, not waiting for a few more days to smell the pup. His weakness, his doubt… that was his fault. And all of our downfalls. I prayed for the Moon Goddess to take me. I no longer wanted to be here. I wanted to be with my pup. “Save her.” “No!” Shannon screamed. “I am the Luna now, you marked me last night. I am bearing your pup!" Ah, so that was the pain I felt last night. His betrayal had bile shoot into my mouth. I started to laugh again. I cracked my eyes to see my mate, Brandon, hovering next to me. “Stay with me Amy.” “Beta’s baby. She is f*****g…the Beta.” I choked out the words and laughed as horror bloomed in his eyes. Blood flew from my mouth as I smiled again. “Save her!” “No!” I slammed out, putting all of my power in it. “Don’t move.” I used my Alpha strength to freeze everyone, including my mate. “How?” Brandon looked down at me, pleading. “Let me save you.” “I am descended from the Moon Goddess, and you don’t deserve to save me. You don’t deserve our pup. You were weak. And now you lost everything.” I smiled up at him as I felt my life from my body. And then I was free.
