LYRA'S POV: I was feeling much better in the morning; my splitting headaches were all gone as I prepared to surprise my mate, Kalen. The pregnancy mood swings had really engulfed me lately. Kalen has been working on a project recently, so I wanted to surprise him with an Audi, since he always wants one, especially when I will have my pup. I came to his workspace, but I was told he went out. "Well, we saw him at the next apartment," one pack member said as I was directed to the apartment. The werewolf receptionist said a couple rented the room, and I was determined to know who those couples were. I walked through the hallway, with Kalen's gift in my hands. I placed my ear on the door as I heard moans and sounds of pleasure. I couldn't believe it. "Maybe it's just any random couple," I said, trying to keep my heart from excessive pounding. I dialed Kalen's number as I heard a phone ringing from the room. "Who's that?" A familiar female voice said. "Oh, it's her," another family voice said. I thought of opening the door, but I wasn't still sure it was Kalen. "C'mon, Kalen, faster!" A voice said. Coincidentally, my mate's name is Kalen also. My splitting headaches were coming, and the pack doctor advised me not to stress myself. I was trying my best to remain calm, but my pregnancy wasn't helping right now. "When are you going to reject her, Kalen?" The same familiar voice said as I listened for more. Looks like they were satisfied with what they were doing. "After she gives birth, I will reject her and keep my pup," a reply came as I couldn't take it anymore, and I barged into the room. Truly, it was Kalen and a female omega from the pack
I threw the Audi on the floor, my eyes blazing with a mix of anger and hurt. "You... you monster!" I spat, my voice trembling with rage. "How could you do this to me? To us?" I demanded, my hand instinctively crading my belly.
Kalen snorted, rolling his eyes. "Oh, please, Lyra. Don't make this about you. You're just mad because you're past your prime and you're about to be replaced," he sneered, his words dripping with venom. "Face it, Lyra, you're just a breeding machine. That's all you were ever good for."
The female omega gasped, but Kalen just shrugged. "What? It's true. You're just a means to an end, Lyra. And soon, you'll be nothing more than a distant memory."
I was in pain; my beloved mate was cheating on me all this time! "Whenever I wanted to have sex, you weren't always in the mood. It was just constant pains you were feeling, and I'm a male; I need a female once in a while," he defended himself.
I couldn't say a word to the mistress; I stormed out of the room with my tear-filled eyes. I felt like throwing up, but I guessed it was just me being nauseous. I sat down by the pavement, my eyes red, my heart shattered, and my splitting headaches aching. He truly didn't care about me or his pup; I rubbed my belly as I felt my tummy moving. At least I lost my mate, but I still have my joy...
