Chapter 0006
SEBASTIAN.
I look at Valerie sharply as she glares at Jai, snatching the file back from me.
“You’re a pig!” She hisses.
“Like you’re any better!” He snaps.
The two always clash. They had dated for a short while and were inseparable, but after a nasty
breakup, they can’t even stand being in each other’s presence.
Often, Zaia and I had to calm them down.
“Answer me, Valerie.” I say, ignoring Annalise, who has walked over to me, clinging
on to my arm.
“Answer him, Val.” Jai repeats, earning himself another deadly glare.
Does he have a death wish?
“Fine! You want to hear it? Then listen! She was pregnant, but she no longer is. Satisfied now?” She
glares at the three of us.
Annalise rolls her eyes and walks off to my desk, but her callous behaviour is the least of my worries.

mind. “What do you mean? Did she get rid of it?”
Valerie hugs the file to her chest and shakes her head vigorously.
“No, Alpha, Zaia would never do that. It was your rejection that caused her to
miscarry.” She says bitterly.
My head jolts up sharply, and I stare at her, letting those words sink in.
I… I’m the reason my child is dead…
“What the fuck Val?” Jai snarls, grabbing her arm.
“That is why I was saying don’t tell him!” She shrieks.

“Stop it.” I say, my voice cold. My heart is thundering like a galloping horse in my
chest, replaying our last days in my mind..
Why didn’t she tell me?
“She must have known that a rejection could risk our child’s life. Why did she do it?! I growl.
Valerie looks down. “You left her no option. She tried to talk to you…” She glances coldly at Annalise.
“You were too busy trying to get rid of her.”
The guilt and regret I’m feeling now change to anger and I turn, punching the first
thing my hand connects with. My wine collection from my bar goes flying.
shattering against the wall and spilling over the rug. The strong smell of alcohol fills
the air.
“I
“She should have told me she was pregnant!” I snarl.
“She was going to, but instead, you handed her divorce papers Alpha.” Valerie says, I
can smell her fear as she takes a step back, but even then, she’s defending her friend.
I freeze, remembering that night.
‘What did you want to tell me?… It doesn’t matter anymore…‘
Was that why she had refused the wine I had offered her that day? She had been in
such a rush to get the rejection over with.

Thanks to her selfishness, we lost the baby,
I run my fingers through my tousled hair. The entire place feels too small and their
presence is becoming far too overwhelming.
“Are you serious?” I hear Jai murmur.
“I am. It’s why I said to you to not tell him. It would only hurt him as it did Zaia. I
have things to do.” Her footsteps recede as she leaves the room, leaving behind the. pain and regret
she had brought with her.

“It’s going to be fine, Seb,” Annalise purrs, wrapping her arms around my neck.
“I’m responsible for killing my child.” I say quietly, the words leaving bile in my
mouth as I untangle her arms and step back.
“You aren’t. It’s on Zaia, there are women who face rejection and no harm comes to
the baby. This just shows she wasn’t strong enough to be Luna or carry your child…”
If I hadn’t rejected her, the baby would have been fine….
