The Tripartite Mate Bond Chapter 120: CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY

Watching the twins dissect a non responsive Kane was only serving to piss me off and I had to leave there. It was only showing me how much they didn't really like the fact that we were all in the same mate bond.

But I didn't have it in me to care what they did to each other, I just needed to breathe.

I walked out of the pack house and got to the new school where we'd moved the children after the incident with Sonia, my new found animal friend. I would go check on her afterwards but something just drew me here and I watched as they all played around.

“Luna. We were not expecting you,” an Omega rushed to meet me and I understood where she was coming from.

I was in charge of inspecting the teaching conditions so walking in suddenly, they felt I was here to check on their performance.

“Don't worry, Lina. I'm just taking a look around, okay?” I reassured her but I knew I'd have to come back with a clearer mind as I didn't like her reaction to seeing me all of a sudden.

I watched the children and I began to imagine the child that I would give birth to playing just like this.

The kids would run to where I stood and I engaged in playful conversations with them for a while until I felt a little bit tired and I sent them back to their teachers.

I guess seeing what could be made me feel a little less choked up and confused so I decided to go see Cora.

I didn't understand why Kane would do this and I really just needed to talk to someone who wasn't going to throw a tantrum like Ares and Axel.

She was picking up her laundry when I got there.

“Aurora, how are you doing?” She rushed over to me, dropping the basket at her doorstep.

I wasn't able to say anything as the tears I'd been holding back began to spill out.

“Shit. Come sit down,” she said and took me inside.

“Sorry for the mess, Damian is in that phase where children scatter everywhere for the fun of it,” she explained as she cleared the couch for me to sit down.

“Cora, I'm pregnant,” I dumped the news on her and at first she's ecstatic but then she sees my mood and she realizes something is wrong.

“Wait, what is wrong with that? You weren't ready?”

“Yes, I did everything right except for having a man who cares about me. Kane switched my contraceptives because he doesn't want me to go into any war. I have a dragon who is attached to my mind, body and soul. She's also pregnant because of me, and we're in the middle of a war, is this the right time for it?” I poured out my frustration to Cora who got angrier the more I spoke.

“Wait, Kane switched your meds? What is wrong with him?”

“I have no idea. I just don't know what to do. I'm already falling in love with this baby but the circumstances surrounding their existence are so bad. I trusted and loved him but he decided to do this. He was so glad I'd lost my powers and now this. I can't even imagine how the next nine months is going to be like and I'm so scared of anything happening to my baby in this times. What if something happens to us? My baby would be out in the world with no parents just like me!” I cried, my tears spilling all over my clothes.

“I'm so sorry, Aurora. This is such a terrible situation. On one hand, you're definitely going to love this child to death and protect them with everything in you but the betrayal from Kane will have you in tatters. Look, he's my brother and I know his tendency for always having his way has been without incidents but this is extreme. You need to go with Ares back to NightShade. Give him time to truly feel remorse and earn your trust back. He has truly gone too far,”

“But my dragon is here. I can't leave her,” I remembered.

She was also pregnant

“Oh, that's true. But doesn't she have another dragon with her now? And it's not something permanent. Just a few weeks so you can feel a bit better,”

“You're right. My presence here isn't even doing anything for her, I'm only making matters worse with my fire power gone,”

“I understand you but don't let all of these weigh you down, okay? And call me whenever you can,” she said and I hugged her before I left.

I went back to their Alpha's office and they were still going at, the arguments making me have a headache already.

“Guys,” I called their attention using the mindlink.

“Baby, look I'm so sorry. I was just scared of losing you,” Kane began but I wasn't paying attention to him. I couldn't stomach the betrayal.

“You're lying. You were simply being a selfish caveman. All you care about is yourself just like you've proven several times!” Axel shouted at him.

“That's –”

“I want to go back to the NightShade Pack with Ares and Axel. I need space away from you. Besides, they're also my people and I haven't seen them in a while,” I announced.

“Finally!” Ares exclaimed and he took my hand and was about walking out with me when Kane stopped us.

“You can't carry our light child and travel such a distance. Besides, your dragon is also pregnant, are you gonna leave her alone?” He said.

“She has Tharros with her and Ares will make sure I'm safe. Besides, I think the loss of my fire power is affecting her so maybe a little distance will benefit everyone,” I replied, trying to not get angry at his apparent selfishness.

I've been here for a while and haven't had the chance to visit NightShade. Ares and Axel are always running over here to see me but the idea of me going over there has him upset.

“Oh. I guess I deserve that. Um, about your fire abilities … um,” he began stuttering and I walked closer to him, confused.

“What about it?” I prompted.

“I don't think your ability to produce fire is completely gone, I told the doctor to lie to you so you won't go anywhere. I've been drugging your water,” he confessed and my heart shattered into a thousand tiny pieces.
