Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress Novel

Chapter 169 Amelia's POV I couldn't lie to Jake and tell him that it wasn't something I thought about. Ever since his initial suggestion I return to the human realm, back when I was determined to head to the capital to rescue Damien, the idea had lingered in the back of my mind. Jake was right, after all. The werewolf realm had not been kind to me. Even when I first arrived, while I had good times with Damien, the rest of the pack treated me coldly, not respecting me as a human. Maybe I was never meant to be here. Maybe the realms should not be crossed.

There would be no shame in returning home. I was well-aware of that. And maybe I would be safer there. But would I be happy? I tried to remember my days before Damien came into my life and whisked me away on this wild adventure. I worked hard, putting myself through med-school. I didn't have any family, and I had worked so hard that I didn't have time for friends. The thought of returning was just so... lonely. "Since you've been here, you've been through hell," Jake said. "Your life has been endangered countless times..." "I know," I said, because I hadn't forgotten.

Near death experiences weren't something that I was happy to experience, but that loneliness... the constant working while never truly being fulfilled. Yes, my life was in danger here, but I was also accomplishing things I never would have thought possible. I helped as a Healer, I saved people's lives! If I went back to the human realm, I would have to start over, go back to med school, only now I'd have a child, which I would have to raise alone. A half-werewolf child who would need special care...

The thought of doing all that alone wasn't impossible, and I knew I could be up for the task, but it seemed so daunting. To do it pregnant? "I can't make any decision until after the baby is born," I said. Looking at him, I hoped he could understand why. My pregnancy was dangerous enough here among people who had experience with werewolf pups. In the human realm, no one would know what to do with the werewolf half of my child. Modern human medicine wouldn't be enough to help me if something went wrong. I needed Healer Eve and Dr. Wyatt.

At least while I was still pregnant and for the delivery. Jake nodded. "I understand. And it is ultimately your decision, one that I will support either way. But it is difficult watching you suffer. Sometimes I feel so powerless..." He glanced down at his hands. "I would give anything to keep you safe, Amelia, even if it meant I couldn't see you anymore." I gave him a small sort of smile. "Even if I went to the human realm, you could still come visit me, right?" He tried to return my smile, but it didn't quite reach his eyes. I understood then, what was happening here. He was lying.

He wouldn't come visit me. Likely to protect me. If I disappeared to the human realm, it would be to escape Damien and the Alpha King. Bringing too much attention to me could be harmful for me. 1/2 Still, even knowing he wanted to protect me, it hurt. I didn't want to go forever without seeing him again. And what if I needed him? What if something went wrong with my child and I needed help from the werewolf realm? Would I be trapped in the human realm without any way of returning? Perhaps, in that case, the human realm wouldn't be the best place for me, after all.

That, and the memory of my loneliness made it impossible to commit to moving back to the human realm. Here, despite the dangers, I had friends. There... I had no one. COIN BUNDLE: get more free bonus P Comments Support Share GET IT 2/2 **Mocar 170 Joseph King
