Filed to story: Goddess's Design His Fated Mate (Willow & Reuben)
He was my soulmate, my lover, my everything. I knew he was angry, but I believed that once we talked, he would understand me and our situation. No matter how upset he was, he couldn’t ignore his child. He couldn’t ignore the emotions and feelings of a father. I put on a smile and left my courtyard,
“Willow, where are you going?”
My best friend Ella met me on the way. She was heading to join others.
“I’m going to see Alpha Reuben,”
I began, but she cut me off.
“Wait, are you also going to visit Alpha Reuben’s fiancée?”
She smiled. “She is really beautiful! No wonder, Alpha fell for her at first sight,”
she giggled as she gossiped.
My face turned pale. “Fiancée?”
Ella nodded, “Yes, Alpha Reuben brought her with him. Didn’t you know ”
“Ella, come on! The moon is about to rise. Let’s go into the woods!”
She was about to say more when someone called her name.
“Coming!”
she shouted back, shifted into her wolf, and hurried away.
I stood there, frozen in shock. “Reuben fiancée?”
I gasped for air as I found it difficult to breathe. I had never paid much attention to the rumors about Reuben’s arranged marriage with the Alpha’s daughter that had been circulating in the pack for months. I had dismissed it as just another rumor, but it had turned out to be true. Reuben was marrying someone else.
I fell to my knees on the ground, tears streaming down my face. From the beginning, I was well aware that an Omega and an Alpha were impossible together, but I had held a glimmer of hope in my heart that one day Reuben and I could be together. I had hoped that all the patience and penance I had shown towards our mate bond would eventually bear fruit. But now, all my hopes and dreams were crushed by Reuben’s hatred towards our baby. The child that was supposed to bring a new beginning to our lives had become the end of our mate bond. Reuben had chosen another woman over me. He betrayed me. Betrayed our mate bond.
I stayed in that same position for hours, listening to the howls of the pack members as the moon shone brightly in the sky. I waited, desperately hoping for Reuben’s return, but he never came. I was abandoned and indirectly rejected.
I clenched my chest, my wolf cried in pain in my head. Now, in my pregnant state, I had neither a soulmate nor a pack.
Heartbroken, I returned to my house, packed my belongings, and left the pack forever.
Willow
“Congratulations, you’re pregnant with twins,”
the female doctor smiled at me.
“Twins?”
Lying on the hospital bed, I looked at the doctor in shock. Was I hearing things? How could I be pregnant with twins?
After leaving the Emerald Bright Pack’s territory, I had started feeling sick. I had vomited on the side of the road and felt increasingly dizzy. My emotional turmoil had taken a toll on my health, and my wolf refused to communicate with me. I had come to the doctor for a check-up, but I never expected to receive the biggest surprise of my life.
“Yes, twins,”
she affirmed, pointing at the monitor to show me the two innocent lives. growing healthily in my belly. Tears welled up in my eyes. They were really twins.
The doctor prescribed some medicine, and I left the hospital feeling dazed. Subconsciously, I placed my hands over my belly and whispered, “Don’t worry, my babies. Even if daddy doesn’t want you, mommy loves you very much. I will raise the two of you with everything I have,”
I sniffled.
With my luggage in hand, I headed to the bus station, but I didn’t know where to go. The Emerald Bright Pack had been my only home, and I had no family or relatives to rely on. I was alone in this vast world. Once again, thoughts of Reuben crossed my mind, causing my heart to ache, and tears gathered in my eyes. Just as I was lost in my thoughts, a car crashed into a nearby tree with a deafening impact on the deserted street.
Startled, I looked at the accident in front of me with wide eyes and raced closer to the car to check. The car’s front end was badly crushed, and there was only a middle-aged man in the driver’s seat, his head bleeding profusely.
“Oh, my goddess!”
I gasped, pulling out my phone to call an ambulance. But before I could do anything, a man crawled out of the car on his own and collapsed at my feet. I quickly tried to grab and support him, asking, “Sir, are you okay?”
I helped him lean against the car. His strong aura and scent confirmed that he was a werewolf, an Alpha.
“Wait, I’ll call an ambulance, I began dialing the number, but he grabbed my hand.
“You’re Willow Rathbone, right?”
he asked, his voice heavy with shock.
“How how do you know?”
My eyes widened at him mentioning my last name, a name that had always been hidden from the world.
Six years later, Britain.
The coffee on the table remained untouched and eventually turned cold once again. I carefully pinned a lace dress on a mannequin, ensuring it draped perfectly over its form, accentuating the curves and contours of the gown. It was the finishing touch to my creation. I finally removed the curtain parting my room into two.
“Wow ”
Lola, who had just entered the room, gasped while standing at the door. She stared at the long red gown with wide eyes and an open mouth. “So this is the masterpiece you created in just two sleepless nights, she marveled, stepping into the room slowly. “You are really blessed!”
she exclaimed.
I was the most famous fashion designer in the country. My designs graced the bodies of models, celebrities, and adorned the runways of countless fashion shows. With my extraordinary ability to understand people’s desires when it came to clothing, I had become the youngest fashion designer to claim the top spot in the industry, amas sing awards and accolades in my name..
“I wish I could wear it. I’m so jealous of your talent!”
Lola exclaimed.
I chuckled in response. Lola was a human and my helper.
“Did you come here for something?”
I asked as I walked over to the basin to wash my face. After staying up the entire night, my back was sore, and my eyes felt heavy. All I wanted was to shut them for a while.
“Oh yes! I almost forgot about it. The kindergarten teacher just called!”
she informed. impatiently.
I stopped in my tracks, my fatigue momentarily forgotten. “Don’t tell me Wyatt and Lori did something in kindergarten again.”
Lola gave me a nervous smile. “You should see for yourself. They’ve already returned. from kindergarten.”
I pinched my forehead wearily. They had returned after only one hour? What had my little devils done this time?
