22 22 Belladonna There was not much sleep that night , because regardless of knowing this pup was going to be born outside of her and Parkers Mate Bond , her brain wouldnt shut off , and so in the end shed gotten up and pulled out her copy of her voided Mating Alliance .
It was a simple looking document that was on wolfen paper that was kind of yellow and had filigree all around the edge of the front page , then the words Mating Alliance written across the very top of it , though there was now he word VOIDED in big bold red letters stamped across the middle of those words .
She could see both Parkers and her names there in full to show whose it was .
And she turned the page and reread the clause about pups , because it was bugging her to the point where she couldnt sleep and she really did need to , had a long drive ahead of her tomorrow .
Bella really did need to know the exact wording of it to ease her mind , it seemed , because she knew just how much Parker was a stickler for the rules , and the way things were worded were very important to him .
He worded things to suite himself and the way he thought .
He used them to get what he wanted from others as well .
He was , she thought , very intelligent and did things in a specific way to get what he wanted from others .
That clause stated , born within their mate bond , not conceived during their mate bond .
So , on a technicality , Freya was actually right .
She did not have to relinquish her pup to him , it was her pup , not his .
There wasnt even a clause about if she found out she was pregnant after rejection , she lay there and thought about that as well .
Realised she didnt actually have to tell him about it at all there was no clause for that .
Though not telling Parker at all about their pup , that bothered Bella .
It , however , didnt appear to bother Freya at all , not even in the slightest .
Freya was of the opinion that it was Bellas pup , and she should not have to give it up to Parker .
She would never have to relinquish her kin bond to her pup either , if he didnt know .
Which was what would happen if she told him about this pup she was carrying .
A part of Bella wanted to tell him ; he wasnt a bad person , just indifferent to her .
Had never harmed her in any way , but she also didnt think that hed treated her exactly like a Mate should do , there was no real love and care , hed been indifferent to her , which she herself had returned in kind .
She understood she wasnt his Goddess Gifted .
So , there wasnt much more than that , that she could expect from him , especially seeing as she was chosen just to be rejected by him .
Hed in บ +10 Poet 22 no way attached himself to her , just like she hadnt him , likely some sort of self preservation on both their ends .
But she did know he wanted a pup with her , wanted to be a father , and she actually thought that he would likely make for a good father to his children as well .
He would be honest and , though she thought probably a little too strict , shed seen him smile at pack children , ruffle their hair and thought they were things hed do with his own pups .
But then there was the fact that he and she were now rejected Mates , and she wasnt even inside his pack anymore .

They were now nothing to each other at all , she was also of rogue status , so technically pack rules and laws didnt apply to her anymore .
He also had his Goddess Gifted Mate inside that pack now as well .
That she wolf , being his Goddess Gifted , would give him pups , and likely quickly so with how much he enjoyed having S * X .
Those pups , Parkers and Carinas , they would be the true heirs to the pack , conceived and birthed within a Mate Bond , between the Alpha and Luna of the pack .
The pup she was now carrying might be older , even be the firstborn , but would be considered a bastard pup , regardless that theyd been mated to each other at the time of conception .
Parker was mated to another , so that , by that definition , meant that her and his pup was a bastard .
Bella sighed to herself and kind of just flopped back down on her bed , she had no idea how the news would go down with his new Mate and Luna .
Though she had seen the very angry look directed at her , once Carina had understood who she was to Parker , his Chosen Luna .
Bella had also seen the way Carina had tried to latch right onto Parker , all possessively as any Mate would , when faced with competition .
Only that girl likely didnt know Bella wasnt actually real competition .
Though she had also probably thought Bella was going to beg and plead , and try to keep her position in Parkers bed .
The way most Mates would do when being rejected for another .
So , she had tried to show Bella her claim on that man , had looked even more furious when Parker had stopped his own Goddess Gifted from displaying her claim on him , in front of others , one she likely thought she needed to show that he was hers to .
Bella understood why Parker had brushed Carina off .
It wasnt to offend her , it was done to stop Bella feeling any pains of betrayal , and everyone in the packhouse foyer , including the children she was sitting with , from seeing her suffer it .
Seeing that he let her suffer it willingly , because he now had a Goddess Gifted Mate , which 2/4 +10 Point 22 would see him as cruel .
Hed never once touched another while theyd been bound to each other , and he hadnt been going to allow it at that time either ; even knowing that it was his own destined mate that wanted to lay claim on him for all to see .
Halted it , to stop Bella from feeling the pain of it , he had kept himself true to their mating alliance right to the very end .
She had to agree with Freya in the end , it was probably best not to tell Parker , she could well imagine Carinas angry reaction to that news .
Bella also knew what her own life as a bastard pup , had been like , having her own fathers Luna hate her and shun her .
That was not a life she wanted for her own son or daughter .
No , she could raise her pup , with love and care , bring him or her up in a happy household .
Her child did not need to feel what Belladonna had growing up , or be bullied for being the bastard son or daughter to the pack Alpha .
Though she also knew that Parker would feel the day his son or daughter got their wolf , shifting for the first time , likely when they were 16 , which was normal for most wolves .
Hed be able to do the math very quickly , she imagined .
Hed been mated to her for eight years , then finding his Goddess Gifted Mate while still bound to her .
Marking and Mating his new mate likely the same day their rejection had taken place , or maybe the day after .
She didnt know which it was .
It didnt really concern her to be honest .
But for him to sense a pup sixteen years into his Mate Bond with Carina that wasnt hers , there was only going to be one possibility of who had birthed that pup .
Hed know it was her , the search for her and his unknown child , a boy or girl .
Would start with simply putting her name into the wolfen intranet , to search out her human world portfolio , and find out where she was , as long as she kept it up to date that was .
It was only going to be a matter of time before he was able to track her down , come and demand answers .
Likely bring that mating alliance with him ; with the pups clause highlighted even .
Thats a problem for the future .
Freya stated , Ill deal with him , when that happens .
Oh , you will , will you ! Youve never dealt with him or Vex , not once .
That was always left up to me to do .
Bella did not believe her wolf at all .
Even better , hell not know what I look like or what to expect , Freya snorted , kind of seemed amused to Bella .
