"Ah... Hmm... Alpha Hayes, go deeper. Yeah! You're awesome..." A woman’s groans sounded from the other end of the phone, accompanied by a man’s deep voice.

Elaina held the phone blankly. Her heart seemed to fall from heaven to hell in an instant as an overwhelming pain spread in her heart.

She hung up the phone hastily, trying to deceive herself and erase the noises from her memory, but tears uncontrollably coursed down her cheeks.

She trudged back to the pack house and took a bottle of red wine from Alpha Hayes' liquor cabinet.

After taking a few sips, Elaina finally gave up intoxicating herself because she couldn't let the pups in her belly suffer with her.

The next morning, she worked on the design absent-mindedly and failed to push Alpha Hayes out of her mind.

It had been twelve years. It was not easy to put deep love behind her.

She touched her flat belly subconsciously. If it were possible, she wanted to give her pups a complete family.

A notification that sounded from her phone brought her back to the present.

It was a new message. It was from Alpha Hayes!

Elaina's heart started to beat violently in an instant. She clicked at the message with trembling fingers.

At first glance, Elaina saw a photo of Tania and herself. It was taken when she had just entered the Baine family.

In the photo, Tania was wearing an expensive dress, and light fell on her bright smiling face. She was like a perfect princess, noble and superior. However, Elaina was wearing a gray and white dress, looking humble and lowly like an ugly duckling in a dark corner.

Together with the photo was a message from Alpha Hayes. After reading the text, Elaina's fingertips went cold.

[Elaina, look at Tania and then look at yourself. How can a dirty and lowly woman like you be my Luna?] Alpha Hayes’ message read.

The words pierced Elaina’s eyes like icy swords.

Looking back at midsummer twelve years ago, Elaina couldn't face the heartlessness and disgust that Alpha Hayes had for her now.

She said inwardly, "Alpha Hayes, you said that I was the kindest and cutest girl you had ever seen. You said you would marry me and make me your Luna. You said you would stay with me forever? What’s going on now?"

She immediately sent a message to Alpha Hayes. [Alpha Hayes, I know you are prejudiced against me, but I am pregnant. Please give me a chance to love you and give the pups a complete family, okay?]

After sending the message, Elaina was nervous, apprehensive, but hopeful.

She wondered if Alpha Hayes would be happy with the knowing that she was pregnant with his pups. Would he look forward to the birth of the pups?

Alpha Hayes texted back only three words. [Get an abortion.]

Elaina's heart seemed to have been cut open with a sharp weapon. Before Elaina could recover from the pain, Alpha Hayes sent another message.

[Elaina, I warn you, only Tania in this world is qualified to have children with me. A shameless slut like you should sign the divorce agreement immediately, accept my rejection, and get away! If you don't sign the divorce and accept the rejection, I'll kill the pups with my own hands.]

The blood inside Elaina's body seemed to freeze in an instant. The sharp and cold-blooded words from Alpha Hayes were full of humiliation. The piercing pain brought some sense into Elaina's mind. This man was not worthy of her love. She couldn't continue to love him blindly.

Meanwhile, Tania deleted all the messages on Alpha Hayes' phone.

After doing this, her palms were still sweating.

She was afraid of leaving traces, and she was even more afraid that Alpha Hayes would discover the truth.

Two years ago, when she entered Elaina's room to look through things, she found Elaina's diary together with a bookmark, on which there was the signature of Alpha Hayes. It was dated ten years ago.

It turned out that Alpha Hayes met Elaina ten years ago and they had a pure and romantic agreement.

However, Elaina didn’t used to be called Elaina back then, and Alpha Hayes did not recognize Elaina as the little girl with whom he had an agreement back then. All of this gave her a loophole.

The automatic glass door suddenly clicked open, and the tall figure of Alpha Hayes appeared. Tania's expression changed. She quickly rose from his desk, putting his phone back where it had been as if nothing had happened.

Elaina returned to the empty pack house. Thinking of the divorce agreement sent by Alpha Hayes and the text he sent, her heart hurt as if she was being stabbed by a knife.

She didn't expect Damon to hate her so much now. He even ruthlessly asked her to have an abortion.

Elaina was scared. What would she do if Damon really wanted to do that?

Suddenly, there was a noise at the door. Damon was back, and he looked handsome and elegant.

Elaina was a little surprised, but she was even more apprehensive.

She was afraid that Damon would force her to have an abortion. To her surprise, he reminded her to accompany him to the Blood Moon Pack House as his wife instead of mentioning the divorce and abortion. Tomorrow was the birthday of Luan Hayes, who was Alpha Hayes' mother.

It was a pleasant surprise for Elaina. Did it mean he was trying to accept her?

But this extravagant hope was quickly shattered by Damon, who said coldly with icy eyes, "Elaina, you'd better not think I will change my opinion of you. I will never fall in love with a shameless woman like you in my life."

"I'm lowly. I humiliate myself by chasing a man who doesn't love me, but I'm not as despicable as the woman you love,’’ Elaina replied.

The man who was taking off his suit paused for a moment. He turned around, his resolute and handsome face covered with cold anger. "Elaina, do you want to get in trouble?"

"I'm telling the truth. Alpha Hayes, do you know why you slept with me three months ago?" Elaina asked.

Then she went up to him, her eyes full of determination.

"It was Tania! She designed it all! She had intended to have sex with you, but she slept with a rogue by mistake. She's pregnant now, but you might not be the father,’’ she added.

Alpha Hayes' face instantly darkened horridly.

He reached out and dragged Elaina viciously in front of him. He gripped her long neck with cold fingers tightly, and Elaina found it difficult to breathe.

"Do you think I'll believe you? Does a shameless woman like you deserve to be compared to Tania?" Alpha Hayes asked.

After he spoke coldly, he flung Elaina away.

Elaina could finally breathe, but she lost her balance and fell, her belly hitting the corner of the bed.

The suffocating pain hit her instantly, and Elaina broke out in cold sweat. She clutched her lower abdomen and looked at the cold back of Alpha Hayes, while asking for help.

"Da... Alpha Hayes, it hurts..." she muttered.

Alpha Hayes stopped and coldly looked at Elaina, who was sitting on the ground.

"Your acting skills are really getting better. Even if something bad happens to you, I won't care, let alone bother if you're fine,’’ Alpha Hayes said to her.

Elaina passed out quickly and only woke up the next day.

Thinking of what happened before she fell unconscious, Elaina got flustered and quickly touched her lower abdomen.

The female doctor who made the ward rounds had just come in. Looking at Elaina, she gave her a contemptuous glance.

"Your child is temporarily saved,’’ the doctor said.

Elaina trembled and said with frightened eyes, "Doctor, what do you mean by temporarily?"

"You have a tumor in your uterus. It's malignant, so you have to have an abortion, or you'll die,’’ the doctor replied.
