Alpha’s Pregnant Luna - Chapter 72: Chapter 72

Frankie
I turned the doorknob and swung the door open with force.
Nothing!
I stuck my head through the door and checked both sides of the hallway to be sure.
Still nothing!
I brought my head back inside and checked every nook and cranny of the room just to be safe. Once I didn’t find anything, black retreated and I proceeded to take the seat besides the bed once more.
Immediately I sat down, I felt a sudden chill run down my spine and my head felt hazy for a bit.
“What the hell was that?” I thought as I shook my head and massaged my forehead.
As quickly as the feeling came, it disappeared and I was left with confusion at whatever that was.
Before I could ponder over it a bit more, Paula started to stir a awake on the bed.
She groggily opened her eyes as she groaned.
“You are awake” I commented when she was rubbing her eyes.
“Frankie?” she asked in a croaky voice.
“Yeah Bambi. I’m the one” I replied, leaning forward to caress her forehead.
“What happened?” she asked as she stared at me in confusion with her big hazel eyes.
“You had another episode but you are alright now.” I answered before gripping her hand in a bid to comfort her.
She looked a bit startled at that fact but it was soon replaced with sadness.
She removed her hand from mine and brushed her hair away from her eyes.
There was silence in the whole room for a while.
No one spoke at all and all we did was stare. The unknown factors in our lives was too much.
We couldn’t really say if another surprise was going to pop or not.
Hopefully Not.
“Frankie?” she suddenly spoke up.
“Yes, Bambi?” I responded as I watched her fiddle with her fingers.
“Can I ask you a question?” she asked without looking at me.
“Yes you can baby.” I answered back before engulfing her hand in mine in a bid to stop her nervous fiddling.
She looked up at me and what I saw made me gasp.
She looked so vulnerable and lost. That was a look that I saw in her eyes the first time we met.
I sat up straighter in panic as I stared back at her.
I wanted to ask what was wrong but she beat me to it and started speaking.
“Do you think I can win?” she asked.
“Win what Bambi?” I asked because I knew that she wasn’t only asking about the fight within her.
“I meant that can I win over the ancient in my body? Can I win the hearts of the people of your pack? Can I win over myself in my journey to become stronger. Can I win?” she questioned.
I sighed as I carefully thought of how to answer her rhetorical question. She looked way too vulnerable so saying the wrong thing might cause her withdrawal from me.
I would never want that.
I took her face in my hands.
“Baby, I will answer you truthfully. I also don’t know if you can or not.” I said before I paused.
Tears began to well in her eyes and I panicked and rushed my remaining words.
“Hey. Don’t cry baby. I am not done yet. I meant it when I said that I don’t know if you will win. I mean, no one really knows if they will, right? The only thing I know and I’m sure of is the fact that I will be with you through it all.” I answered and I could see that she had calmed down.
I knew that it was considered a cheesy thing to say but I meant it with all my heart.
She had been alone for quite a while so I needed to assure her that she could always count on me, the dominant in a sea of uncertainties.
“I may not be perfect and all that but I know you can count on me. I will always be there to lend a shoulder to cry on. I will always be there, win or lose. I will be there even if no one accepts you. I will be there cheering you on from the sidelines come rain or shine. This may sound not sound a that credible because of your past experiences with me but I will try to make sure to prove it to you. That is because I love you.” I finished in the most sincere tone I could muster.
I loved her even though she had never said it back. I laved her more than life itself. Mate bond or not, she was my love and she would always be my love.
“Frankie, I…” she started but trailed off once I interrupted her.
“You don’t have to respond Bambi. I just want you to know that. So, if you ever feel down or uncertain about anything, know that you can come running to me as I will always be certain.” I said and smiled awkwardly at her.
I was not used to all those mushy stuff at all. I just bared my heart to my mate even though I didn’t know if she felt the same.
She stared at me for quite a while without saying anything. I couldn’t read the express on her face at all.
What was she thinking?
“She might be put off by the fact that you turned to a wimpy wolf. I mean why would a whole Alpha King with a wolf of my caliber say all those mushy stuff?” Black chimed in with a dissatisfied tone.
“Hey. Don’t talk to me in that tone. Also, what the hell do you mean by wolf of your caliber? Do you mean the silent and never helping kind of wolf? You rarely speak to me as of late and now you want to judge the way I comfort our mate? Fuck off” I responded in a snarky tone.
“I don’t speak because I am observing the situation. I only show myself when I feel that it is absolutely necessary. You wouldn’t understand what I am doing because you are one soft wolf. Saying sweet nothings and all that. She would have said that she loved you of you are more possessive.” he replied before humping at me.
“You…… Whatever, Black. I will not argue with you. You can go back into your silence. I don’t care.” I said before I completely ignored him and focused on Paula who was now studying my face.
She suddenly smirked.
What is going on? Is the ancient back?
“Paula? What….” I started but I trailed off once she shut me up by suddenly pulling my face closer and sealing my lips with hers.
Damn! Beat that Black!
I kissed her back passionately.
She separated from me after kissing for a while. She was panting as she held on to my shoulder.
There was a mischievous glint in her eyes as she looked at me.
Now I didn’t know if it was Paula or the ancient as all I knew was that my little Frankie was up and ready to go to work.
“I don’t want you to make love to me. I want you to fuck me mercilessly.” she suddenly said.
“What?” I asked with widened eyes.
