Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress Novel

Chapter 212 +25 Bonus Chapter 212 Damien's POV My hatred for Claire was visceral. It was her actions that had taken Amelia from me and from her daughter. But, when faced with the pleading faces of her parents, while holding my own daughter, I felt myself soften. I still hated Claire and always would. But, if she was exiled, she wouldn't be able to hurt my family anymore. "Fine," I said, granting leniency for the sake of her parents and them alone. They had been good members of the pack. Mr. Montgomery had served my father for many years.

"Rather than death, she will face exile once the baby is born. But let me clear to you both. If I ever see or hear from her again, that decision will be revoked and her life will be forfeit." The relief in the Montgomery's was palpable. Tears streaming down her face, Mrs. Montgomery grew weak in the knees. Her husband gently led her to the couch. "Thank you," she said again and again. "Thank you, Alpha," Mr. Montgomery said, voice a little stronger, though still cracking near the end. I could only imagine how difficult it was for them, to lose both children to exile.

Already, in the past few months, both of them seemed to have aged at twenty times speed. But at least in exile, their children would be alive. "I will allow you to contact Ethan to tell him the news, so that he may help care for his sister," I said. I hoped he was still caring for mine. Foolish Victoria. "Thank you, Alpha," Mr. Montgomery said again. I nodded and then left them, eager to tend to my own child. As I left the room, I told my butler. "They can stay as long as they need." "Very well, Sir." I carried Amy to the nursery, then smiled down at her as she started to fuss, awakening.

"Welcome home," I told her. I'd hoped that had been the end of the drama with Claire. I knew she was to give birth any day and eagerly awaited welcoming Amy's sister into the house. But a phone call changed everything. "Alpha," said one of the doctor's at the hospital. "Claire has gone into labor, but there are complications." "What kind of complications?" I asked. "I'm sorry, Sir. But there is a greater than zero chance we will lose both mother and child." I left Amy with her Nanny and rushed to the hospital. The Montgomery's were there, holding each other while looking pale.

I sat in the seats across from them in the waiting room, none of us speaking, while Mrs. Montgomery cried softly. An hour passed. Maybe two. Then the doctor stepped out. "We've saved the baby, but Claire is still in danger." 1/3 Chapter 212 +25 Bonus Any relief I felt was dimmed in the presence of the sheer agony of Claire's parents. While Claire was in critical condition, the doctors working to save her, her parents and I were brought to the nursery to meet the new little girl. She was beautiful, and just as it had done for Amy, my heart melted inside of "You should name her," Mrs.

Montgomery said. The baby was so young, she couldn't even really look up at me. Still, I felt the connection. This was my little girl, who I would raise with Amy and love for the rest of my life. Perhaps longer. "I always liked the name Stacy," I said. "Stacy is a beautiful name," Mrs. Montgomery said. Later, we were still in the nursery when we heard that Claire had survived. Her parents both wept, both looking much older than I knew them to be. "She will face complications for the rest of her life," the doctor said. "Will she be able to travel?" Mr. Montgomery asked.

"She is to be exiled..." The doctor locked his jaw for a moment, then shook his head. "I'm sorry. Such a harsh life would surely be a death sentence." Both parents looked over at me. Amelia's POV For the past few months, I tried my best to settle into this life of mine. I still wasn't certain that this was the life I had always led, as much of it felt... unfamiliar. But I wasn't unhappy. Having a family that cared for me was a great feeling. Whatever issues my family and I had in the past, my parents seemed resolved to fix it.

They even hired a professional photographer to take new pictures of us together to replace those without me in the house. We traveled all over the pack lands, posing for pictures in front of historic buildings and moments that had important significance for Jake, Sienna, and presumably me. I stood in front of the high school with my siblings where we would have attended. We went to the event building where prom was held. I stood beside Jake in the spot where he was sworn into being pack Alpha. Finally, we stood in the park, where the five of us sat on a park bench.

The photographer stood in front of us, snapping pictures. This had gone on for a while, when a family of pedestrians walking behind the photographer caught my eye. They likely had come to enjoy the park, including the playground that was nearby. The family consisted of a mother and father and two young girls. The girls were close in age and could have been twins. For reasons I did not know, this stirred something within me. It was a deep kind of longing. It didn't make any sense. I didn't have a mate, and I never had children.

Yet, distinctly, I felt like I should have been a part of a family like that. That somewhere, my family was waiting for me. How could that be? 2/3 "Annette, you need to look at the camera please," the photographer said, and so I tried. Yet my eyes kept getting drawn away. "Perhaps we should take a break," the photographer said after another few minutes of failure. As he walked off, checking his camera, my family spread out, stretching after sitting for so long. I walked off too, watching as the family entered the playground. Jake came up and stood beside me.

He followed the length of my gaze and must have been able to see who had claimed my attention. We both stood in silence for a moment, before I spoke up. "Jake. Are you sure this is where I belong?" He turned his head to look at me sharply. "What do you mean?" "Nothing," I said quickly to ease his clear alarm. But then I added, "It's just... sometimes I feel like there's a whole other life waiting for me somewhere else." "There isn't," Jake said firmly. He moved to step in front of me, blocking my view of the playground and the family. "Your place is, as it always has been, here with us.

We are your family, Annette. Whatever else you are feeling is just some trick of your mind. It's the amnesia." Of all the symptoms Eve and I had discussed, feeling like I belonged somewhere else wasn't really one of them. But I trusted Jake. I had to. This was the only family I knew. "Give it time," Jake said. "You will learn to be happy here." I nodded. He started to move, and my eyes instinctively went to the park, to the family, but Jake's arm went around my shoulder and physically turned me away.
