Contractually Yours Alpha (Riley) novel Chapter 257

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Seven 

Thane needed some time to digest everything I had told him; I could understand that. 

After I had explained to him everything that happened, he walked to me and drew me in for a warm embrace, but the moment ended too quickly, and then he… left. 

I didn’t assume that the fact that he knew the truth meant I was forgiven, but at least I able to tell him everything and it was a huge relief, now it was all up to him. 

I was 

There was a knock on the door and I headed to answer it, letting Daisy, one of the head healers 

1. in. 

“The result is out,” she says, a bright smile on her face. 

After the dream I had about Axel, I felt like he had been trying to tell me something when he said, ‘If you go through the sacrifice, it wouldn’t just be your life you would be sacrificing. Call me paranoid, but I noticed how weak and tired I had been feeling recently. I blamed it on everything that had been going on, but after the discussion I had with Thane, I went straight to Daisy and told her I needed a pregnancy test; she didn’t ask any questions. I told her I wanted to keep this a secret for the meantime, and she agreed to that, now here she was with the results. 

“So tell how much of a paranoid person I am; I mean, taking a pregnancy test just due to my instincts, it’s crazy.” 

Her smile widens. “What if it’s not?” she asked. “You are pregnant, Luna.” 

“Wait what?” 

I might have gone for the test, but that was to satisfy my paranoia, not because I believed I was actually pregnant. No, I was not ready for that news just yet. 

“Take a seat, Luna; you look pale,” she said, and I did just that. 

“Are you sure there has been no mistake?” 

“Yes, I am very sure Luna, and it is a thing of joy, she said, and I nodded, 

“Of course, it’s just…” 

The last time I had sex with Axel, he had protection, but Thane… Thane didn’t use any protection. This was Thane’s child. Having a child was a huge step for me especially at this time, Thane and I weren’t exactly on good terms yet. I didn’t have to tell him about this yet, and I wouldn’t use my unborn child as leverage to get him back. 

“You know what? You are right.” I said, taking the envelope from her hand, and just then Thane walked in; he seemed about to say something when he saw the both of us, and then his eyes traveled to the envelope in my hands.

“I think I should leave.” Daisy said, and with that, she hurried away. 

The moment she was gone, Thane walked towards me. 

“Why is she here?” he questioned. I didn’t want to keep any secrets from him, yet, I had to get this point straight. 

“I’m pregnant, Thane.” I said, and I could see the surprise in his eyes. “But this doesn’t have to mean anything to you. I know that things can never be how they used to be, and I won’t say I’m okay with that, but I can work with it. This child doesn’t have to be your responsibility; I would take the child alone if I had to…‘ 

Thane cut me off, placing a kiss on my lips. “I want it to be my responsibility, Riley,” he said, a small smile forming on his lips. How I missed his smile. 

“You do?” 

“You didn’t think I ‘forgot‘ to use protection, did you?”
