My Promised Rejection (Olivia) novel Chapter 78

78 It’s Time

Evelyn POV

66 Paints

Pain rips through my body. Goddess that hurts. What the hell is happening? “Evie, you’re in labor, All this stress and worry has sent you into early labor,” Summer says. “The pup is she alright?” “She is fine, but the minute she is born the witch will be able to sense she isn’t the midnight wolf,” she says. This can’t be

happening. I can hear distant voices as I try to force my eyes open. I have to get out of this place.

I won’t let that witch hurt my pup. Another contraction has the muscles in my stomach tightening and I can’t stop the groan that escapes me. “Is she finally waking the hell up? She has been out for hours?” It’s Cassandra’s voice I hear first before a male voice I don’t recognize speaks. “Not completely but she definitely

is responding to the IV. She should be awake soon,” he says.

The next pain that tears through my belly has me screaming. I forgot how painful labor is having my last so

many years ago. “What the hell was that? Why is she screaming,” Cassandra asks, the irritation gone and

replaced by concern. Not a concern for me, of course, but for the pup she intends to claim. Hands that make

my skin crawl start to move around my belly. “She is having contractions. I think she is in labor,” he says. “It’s

early. Will the pup be alright? Do something,” she says.

“The pup should be fine. Women and vampires have babies early all the time. She is far enough that a pup as

powerful as this one should be fine. I just don’t understand why she isn’t opening her eyes. At some point she

will have to push. This isn’t her first pup, so her labor may be shorter. She can’t push if she isn’t awake. I can’t

do a c–section here,” he says.

My heart starts to race when he talks about a c–section. “I told you Nicholas. If she dies before the pup is

safe, so will you. Wake her the f**k up,” Cassandra screams. This time, when the pain hits, I force my eyes

open. I try to breathe through the pain but it’s hard. I wish Xavier was here. I need him to be here with me. I

know it’s not possible, but I don’t feel like I can do this alone. “I’m here with you, Evie. Soon, we will be home

with our mate. Focus on the pup. I’ll take as much of the pain as I can,” Summer says.

“Good your finally f**king awake. Right on time to deliver the pup,” Cassandra says, and I whimper as the pain strikes again. “Mistress, it might be best for you to allow me to stay here with her. I will call you the moment she gives birth to come for the pup,” he says. I don’t know who the hell he is, but at this moment I’m grateful for him. I can tell she doesn’t like what he’s suggesting, but she finally turns to leave the room.

“Alright Evie, I really need to check you. I know you don’t know me, but I’m a doctor. I promise I won’t harm you or the pup. You heard mistress. If anything happens to you or the pup, I’m dead, and I’m not ready to die just yet,” he says. I look at him for a few seconds before I finally nod. I really don’t have much choice but to trust

him in this moment. He rounds the bed just as the pain hits again.

“Alright Evie, when the pain stops I’m going to take off your panties, and you let your legs fall to the sides.” As soon as the pain is gone, I do what he said. I feel him, but I refuse to look at him as he checks me. Thankfully, it’s over quickly. “You are about five centimeters Evie. Half way there, so hopefully it won’t take long, and you can push” he says. “You say that like she doesn’t plan to kill me after I give birth.” I see sympathy in his eyes but it’s gone just as quickly as it came.

Cassandra POV

How dare that leech dismiss me. If it wasn’t for the pup, I would have killed him. I’m bored of him anyway. He

had better not let anything happen to the pup. I just sit down on the throne when the door to the throne room is opened. I’m just about to scream at the vampire running into the room when he falls to his knees in front of me. “Mistress, there are trespassers that have breached the forest. They are ready to enter the castle,” he

“Where are your brethern? Why weren’t they stopped before they entered the forest?” “They were all killed mistress. “I fled. It was the only reason I survived to warn you,” he says. I wave my hand snapping his neck. “Coward, you should have died trying to stop them,” I say, before standing and making my way out of the throne room. I make my way down the hall and two of my warlocks step in beside me as I wait for the

and, to my surprise, a pup. Why on earth would they bring a pup on a rescue mission? No matter, none of them will leave here alive today. The moment my eyes meet Hudson’s, I smile. “Welcome my king. I didn’t

expect to see you here so soon. I wonder how it is you figured out where I was holding the mutt?”

Olivia growls and I smirk. “Didn’t think you would care much about what I called the woman that betrayed you,

Olivia?” “You know nothing about me or my mother, so don’t pretend you do, witch,” she says. “I know she is the reason your father is dead. I know you hate her and yet you are here trying to rescue her. Take her back to the man you hate more than her. Doesn’t make much sense. If she is dead, then she pays for what she did to

Charles.”

“Enough, Cassandra. It’s time to finish this. It’s time you pay for all that you have done. For all the lives you have ruined,” Hudson says. I throw my head back and laugh. “Has that little speech ever worked in battle, my king, because it surely won’t work here today? The only thing that will happen today is your death. I will claim the midnight wolf and become ruler of all supernaturals while you all rot in the ground.”
