Chapter 8

Hazel

“Oh my goodness, look! It’s snowing outside.” I mused in excitement as I gazed through the window. I loved snow. I stroked my protruding belly gently and lovingly, feeling the gentle kicks from within. I couldn’t wait to meet my babies.

I stepped out to the balcony, the temperature had dropped, the air a little bit chilly. Still I felt warm and excited inside.

After

my divorce and rejection, I suffered severe emotional pain for a month. The pain of rejection was something I never anticipated. Even though Ethan and I weren’t fated mates, the rejection hurt deeply. Immediately after Adam dropped me off at that small hotel, that day, I went for a thorough medical test and scan. To my surprise and delight, the tests revealed two tiny heartbeats inside of me. Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I listened to their precious heartbeats. After losing my parents, I felt utterly alone in the world, but now, I had a family of my own in the making.

I decided to leave the city and its pack life behind to start anew in a secluded small town. I knew that if I remained connected to any pack, Ethan might find me with his Alpha influence. So, I chose to go rogue, taking refuge in this tranquil town where I hoped to live peacefully with my unborn children.

Thankfully, I had enough money to sustain us, at least until I gave birth. Still, I couldn’t afford to take any chances. One evening, while strolling through the quiet streets, I spotted a job opening. My baby bump was still relatively small and hidden, so I decided to apply. This decision changed my life in ways I could never have predicted.

That’s when I met Chloe, my boss, and soon–to–be cherished friend. She welcomed me into her family’s business, a cozy cafe, and we quickly formed a close bond. Chloe soon demanded to be the godmother of the twins and offered unwavering support throughout my pregnancy, making me feel like I wasn’t alone anymore.

As the clock struck past six, I relished the beautiful view from my little home. Watching the sunset was one of my favorite pastimes, and the picturesque scenery from my window never failed to captivate me. The day was slowly turning into night, casting a warm orange glow across the room.
