Chapter 94
Vanessa POV
81
After I told him that the moon goddess had told me where Tyler was, he was shocked. I wanted to find him as much as Alfred did. I had thought about our pups. I knew it was inevitable that we would have children. I did not want my boys to go through that. Luckily, my curse was not generational, unlike his. Tyler had cursed every generation. I could not bear the thought of my boys being stuck in wolf form for the rest of their lifespan. Werewolves can live thousands of years unless they die from being killed, illness, or old age. However, werewolves tend to live a long time and die in old age. After I told him that the moon goddess had told me where Tyler was, he was shocked. I wanted to find him as much as Alfred did.

I wanted to try to save his brothers. However, I was unsure if that was possible. However, I will hold on to all hope of helping them. Even if we find their true mates, and they are okay with them being wolves. I’m not sure if that is a possibility. I have thought about many things. I also thought I might be pregnant. However, I did not believe it was possible. I knew when wolves went into heat, we were very fertile at that time. I want to be a mom. But now was not the time. Until we stopped the attacks on me. We needed to find the person responsible for them. But that wasn’t proving easy. I have also thought about suggesting a trap. But I knew Alfred would never hear of it.
Especially if I am pregnant, after that discussion, we eat and then go to bed. I woke up some time later, feeling a sadness that had fallen over me while I slept. When I woke up, Alfred was not there. I knew he was sad. I walked out of the room and found him. I walked up behind him and assured him that we would figure it out. We then went back to bed. The next day, when I woke up again, Alfred was gone. When I walked into the bathroom to use it, he handed me a pregnancy test. All the color drained out of my face when he said what I was thinking. I also knew that I had miscarried a while back. However, lately I have been feeling more tired than usual, hungrier than normal, and I have also been experiencing stomachaches.
I was going to have the doctor check me out when we got back. I had no idea how to use
the pregnancy test. Alfred showed me how, and then it was time to wait. While we waited, I made some toast. I was hungry. It said to wait five minutes. Those five minutes felt like forever. Finally, when it was time to review the test results, I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I wanted to know, but at the same time, I was not prepared to lose the baby again. Alfred went to check it. I heard him slump to the floor. That was not a good sound. I walked into the bathroom and read the test.
It said I was pregnant. I fainted. After I fainted, I began to dream. I was sitting on a throne, and every supernatural creature was kneeling at my feet. What did this mean? A woman with blonde hair and pure white skin approached me.
“Vanessa, it is me, the moon goddess.”

What does this mean?”
“You will rule over every creature.”
“Don’t be afraid.”
”
You will not lose this pup.”
Then she was gone. When I woke up again, I was in the hospital again. How did I get here so fast? The last thing I remember was reading the pregnancy test and then fainting. I also remembered the dream I had. The moon goddess had said that the pup would be fine. Would I really have this pup? All these questions were running through my head. All these thoughts were driving me. Alfred was out in the hall barking orders at people. Then the doctor came in.
“How are you feeling?”
“I feel a little dizzy.”
“That is normal.”
He then explained all the complications to me. My body was not ready to carry a pup. I could die, and the list of issues went on and on. I did not care that I was carrying a child; I was going to have it even if it killed me. This child did not ask to be born, but I was determined to ensure that it would be healthy. I know the moon goddess told me that I am pregnant.
“Where Alfred?”
“He’s out in the hall.”
Will you please get him?”
The doctor left the room, then Alfred came in a few minutes later. He was smiling.

Yes, my love.”
(81)
“Is it true I’m pregnant?”
“Yes, it is.”
Then it was not all a dream. You could not argue with the blood test results. I don’t know if it is a boy or a girl. But I really don’t care what it is.
“Vanessa, I’m sure the doctor went over the complications with you.”
Yes, he did.”
“I already know the answer, but do you want to keep the baby?”
“Yes.”
He then hugged me. When I was able to see his face again, he had a smile on it. He was happy. I thought that he would be mad that I wanted to keep the child. Especially since it could affect my health, but he was not mad. He was happy. I was pleased because he was delighted. I know that we discussed whether I should get pregnant. I lost the first pup because my body was not strong enough. But this time, I was going to do everything I could to ensure that I carried this pup to term. I know that alpha babies grow faster than normal babies. So I was prepared for that.
I want this baby more than anything. Alfred crawled into bed with me and pulled me close -the doctor came into the room.
I have prescribed some vitamins and medicine to help the Luna.”
She will need to take them twice a day and eat several times a day.”
He then explained to us how fast alpha babies grow. I was shocked that they grew that
.
fast. A normal werewolf pregnancy lasts approximately the same length as a human pregnancy. But alpha pregnancies last for five months. He was estimating that I was a
month along already. I knew then that I had gotten pregnant while I was in heat. Now I
will not be able to shift entirely. I was ok with that, and I knew Sasha was as well. Alfred
had bought me some loose–fitting clothes, and I knew I could now wear them. But in a month or two, I will not be able to. I was excited to be a mother.
I was going to be a better mother than my mother. I was going to protect my baby with my whole being.
