Chapter 60
Ashira’s POV
“Just shift when the time has come… Please.”
My tears pooled down my cheek. I don’t want to show him that I feel pity for him, I know that’s the least thing he needed to see. But its too painful for me to see him like this…
“B-But I want to be the first one to hold him…”
“You can still do that even on your wolf.” he responded, wiping the tears on my cheek.
“But its different.” I pushed him and he didn’t resist this time. I looked him in the eyes and noticed that his eyes are red. He looked so soft, far from how he is and it pained me to know that I made him this way. If it ain’t for me, he wouldn’t feel like this.
I tiptoed and pressed my forehead to his. Aiden’s hand easily guided me for support. With closed eyes, I started praying that every pain that traumatize him up to now will begone.
“I can’t risk losing you again…” he whispered. Even with my eyes closed, I can still see his expression in my head. The sound of his heart beating like crazy says how terrified he is.
His argument is understandable but I want his fear to fade and stop hunting him forever. He shouldn’t leave like this, we can’t live like this.
“You won’t lose me. I’m here, Aiden. The universe let me come back to you, no one will take me away.” I pulled away and look him in his bloodshot eyes. Oh, baby…
I kissed his eyes and smiling at him as I pulled away.
“I don’t want to see you like this anymore. Don’t let the past haunt you, baby. I will never leave you. Give me this one last thing, Aiden. I will fight for my life, I will live for you and for Quillon. You won’t lose me.”
He was silent for a while but took a deep breath later on. With his eyes closed, he shook his head but then nodded after.
“Will you be happy with your choice?” he whispers in a soft melodic voice.
I pouted and nodded slowly. “Very.”
Aiden sighed then open his eyes, catching my gaze. Oh, how I love those golden-brown gem.
“Okay.” he leaned in to kiss my head. “Anything to make you happy…”
I smiled at him. There will be more to our life than what we have now and I hope time will heal the bad memories he had…
“Thank you, Aiden.”
He looked at me and smiled. Its genuine, not the weak smile that he often gave me. “That’s not enough.” he said in a hoarse voice.
In a swift movement, he lifted me up and made me sit on the table. My gasp was covered by his lip as he kissed me hard yet gently.
“Aiden…” I moaned when his hand grabbed on my butt. “W-We can’t…” I don’t know if we can have sex since my tummy is bulging like a balloon that will soon explore but fuck! I love how he feels. I miss this!
Though its scary to even think that his huge manhood will penetrate inside me right now.
“We can…” he continued kissing me and grabbing on the corners of my body that needed his touch so bad. I kept moaning, feeling my body as my pregnancy intensified the sensitivity and libido.
Oh, damn.
“N-No. W-What if you bump o-on the baby’s head…”
Aiden stopped kissing on my neck. Does he share the same thought? Is that even possible?
“Pfft!” He is laughing!
Oh my God! Aiden is laughing while his head is buried on my neck! I feel like my face flushed in heat from being embarrass.
“Aiden!”
“Sorry, baby.” but he is still laughing. “That’s an absurd idea but enough to kill the mood.” he laughed again.
I pouted and my cheeks felt hotter.
“Okay, we’ll wait until you give birth.” he grinned as he placed his hand on my belly. “Stop hiding in there, Quillon.” he said to my belly.
“I still have a week before he comes out! Don’t urge him to go out early.”
Aiden laughed. “Yeah, yeah.”

I woke up the next day and there was a commotion just right outside our bedroom door. What is happening?
Struggling to sat up, I saw Seth, Zynia and Ava standing outside my room’s open door. Their eyes are wide open as they look to me and then to the whole room.
I look around and saw nothing different.
Frowning, I stood up. “What’s wrong?” No one dared to speak and I got curious even more. “Guys?”
Where is Aiden, by the way?
“G-Good morning, Luna Ashira…” Zynia greeted but she seems to be in shock, too. All three of them, actually.
“Good morning. Where is Aiden?” they are still in daze. Okay, something is up. “Hey! Snap out of it!” I shouted and the three of them blinked, then slowly walked inside the room.
I decided to sat back on the bed. My back is killing me. I feel like the child has gained weight again and my belly felt heavier.
“Where is Aiden?” I asked again. This is the first time that I woke up without Aiden beside me.
“He was needed in the Hall a-and will be back before breakfast…” Seth answered but he kept looking around the room which made me arched my brows. I look around too but still, I saw nothing different.
Ignoring him, I spoke. “Is everything all right?”
Seth cleared his throat and look back to me. “An old oak tree fell on the electric wires and the whole pack lost connection with the main energy tower.”
Oh. That’s a lot of work.
Looking around the room, I sighed. “So it means it was fixed now? The lights and air-condition of the room is working just fine.”
And why every light in our room is open? Did Aiden switched everything on?
“T-That’s the thing…” Ava said in a confused expression. Whats the thing?
“The wires are not fix yet…” Seth swallowed. “ and your room is the only one that has electricity.”
My jaw dropped. What?
I look around my room and realize that every appliance is indeed working in good condition. If the whole pack lose its connection with the energy tower, then how come my room is…
“Now that I remember, Alpha Aiden once said during the time you were abducted by Elon that you electrocuted him.”
I don’t really remember how I did that but it did happen. “Y-Yes…”
“Then maybe your gift is electricity, Luna Ashira. Mine was speed but it seems the Moon Goddess vested you a blessing close to our nature.”
“Is it not because of the child inside her?” Seth asked.
If my gift is electricity then…
