Chapter 63: Chapter 63
Sierra pov.
I broke down in tears after he left, and I just could not stop myself from crying. Why do I feel so hurt seeing him once again?
I tried to wipe away the tears, but the more I did, the more tears kept running down my eyes.
I closed my eyes one more time, feeling like I was giving up hope and starting all over. But whenever I think of him, I just feel like sinking back into his hands.
I stood up from the floor, slowly walking over to the couch, and sat down. Was that the reason he came? because he wants me back?
I placed my hands over my head once again, feeling pain. For the past months, I've been feeling kind of weak, and I haven't even gone to see the pack doctor about it.
I closed my eyes, trying to relax and calm down a little bit. I took a deep breath, but just as I did that, I felt a bit of pain in my belly.
I have never felt a pain like that, apart from the headaches and weakness, and a little pain I have been feeling lately. But today, it felt as if my stomach was on fire.
I tried to scream but decided to bear it a little and see if it would just go away.
After about a minute, the pain stopped, and I found myself becoming happier than ever.
I stood up and walked up the stairs into my room. I lay on the bed, feeling lonely once again.
How can I get Henry out of there? I can't go back to the castle; it will only make things worse.
I felt as if I was cold, and my body was shaking as if I was about to faint at any time.
I stood up and walked over to the mirror. I looked at my face and saw that my eyes were already swollen due to the tears. But at the same time, I felt as if there was more to it than just the tears.
I walk back over to the bed, glancing at the time, and I see that it's still the noon hour. I can no longer go out or even look around without feeling the weight of everyone's stares, as if I'm some kind of witch.
Feeling exhausted, I decide to lay down and rest for a bit, allowing myself time to think about how to rescue Henry from that castle.
Did I really have to proclaim Henry as my mate, knowing full well that he isn't?
Turning around on the bed, I find it impossible to close my eyes, my mind consumed with thoughts of what I might have done wrong. Why am I the one burdened with such pain, while the one who should bear it is busy enjoying a life that should rightfully be mine?
I take a deep breath, closing my eyes, determined not to shed another tear. I resolve to do whatever it takes to find my own happiness.
As I adjust my pillow, pulling it closer and hugging it tightly, I feel a sense of warmth and relaxation wash over me. A small smile graces my lips as I surrender to the comfort, preparing myself for the darkness that will soon envelop me.

I woke up with a sharp twinge in my stomach, my eyes fluttering open, and an agonizing scream escaped my lips. It felt as if my insides were on the verge of bursting, and I couldn't fathom why.
Closing my eyes tightly, I summoned every ounce of my wolfish strength, desperately attempting to push the pain aside. But it proved to be an overwhelming force, one that I couldn't handle.
After what seemed like an eternity, I finally managed to pry my eyes shut. I hoped the torment would subside, but to my dismay, it only intensified.
As I glanced around, hoping for someone to aid me or take me to a hospital, tears streamed down my face, blending with my anguished screams. Yet, all that greeted me was eerie silence.
Summoning every ounce of determination, I rose to my feet, endeavoring to find my way to the door. However, the pain consumed me, rendering me unable to even take a single step. I stumbled and crumbled back to the ground, the intensity of the agony surging.
In the midst of my suffering, I wished Henry hadn't left for the castle. I longed for his comforting presence by my side, easing my distress.
Lying on the floor, drained and unable to utter another scream, I resigned myself to whatever fate awaited me next.
Suddenly, a hand gently lifted me, and the physician hurried out of the room. I sensed myself being laid on a soft surface, and as the sound of a car reached my ears, I became oblivious to what unfolded thereafter, slipping away.
Gradually, my eyes flickered open, and I found myself in a hospital room. Turning my head, I discovered Henry lying beside me, already immersed in slumber.
Gazing out the window, I observed the darkness that had engulfed the world, and a faint smile graced my lips. I closed my eyes, awaiting the arrival of a new day.
A voice called out my name, jolting me from my reverie. Opening my eyes, I met Henry's gaze, and my smile widened. Clutching his hand tightly, which was already clasped in mine, I relished his presence.
"What happened?" I inquired, my curiosity burning to know the reason for my current state.
He held my hands, gently lifting them up and pressing a soft kiss against my skin.
"It's okay, Sierra. Everything is fine. There is something you need to know, but I believe the doctor will be the best person to explain it to you."
As I looked into his eyes, I could sense that something was amiss, but I simply nodded and offered him a reassuring smile.
"Okay," I whispered. "But how did you manage to get out?"
He tightened his grip on my hands, his expression filled with worry.
"That's not important right now, Sierra. I'll explain everything to you later. But for now, you need to rest."
Just as I was about to speak again, a man entered the room wearing a white coat. It was evident that he must be the doctor.
"You're awake, Miss Sierra Lee. It's good to see you doing well," he greeted me.
I glanced at him, my voice barely a whisper.
"What's wrong with me, Doctor?"
A warm smile crossed his face as he approached me.
"Congratulations, Miss Sierra Lee. You are four months pregnant."
