Aurora's POV
"I can see a lot of progress and I'm very happy," said Doctor Sam, as she touched my head to make sure that I wasn't running temperature. "I'm going to leave you now so you can get some rest. But not to worry, I'll be back in no distant time. I'm only going to run some tests with the samples that I have collected. I'll be back with the results which should be ready in a few minutes, okay?"
I nodded and she walked away, leaving me in the room with Alpha Bane by my side. I reached out and grabbed his right hand which he placed on the bed and I saw him smile. He loved that I always looked to get some comfort from him anytime that I needed it. I loved the fact that he was always there for me whenever I needed him.
As I held onto him, I began to recall all that happened after I was done throwing up in the fitting room. My mother thought that I was pregnant. She waited for all the maids in the room to leave before saying that to me and no matter how hard I tried to convince her that it wasn't the case, she remained adamant.
It was as if she wanted it to be that way. She said that all that I was experiencing were signs of pregnancy. But she was no doctor. There was no way she could have been so certain about that.
Yet, I wasn't unaware that there could be some truth in her words. Considering the rate at which my hormones had been raging, u feared that she might have been right. Although I kept denying it in front of her, it was a possibility that I couldn't simply write off. Everything that I felt pointed to it and I could only hope it was something different.
Alpha Bane kissed my hands, cutting short my thoughts as I stared right into his eyes, still unsure about what was happening to me
"What is it that you're thinking about, my love?" He asked.
It was a question that I didn't expect and I didn't know exactly how to respond to it. I wasn't willing to talk about my concerns with him or anyone. I just wanted to let them be until the doctor would either confirm if they were true or not.
"Don't worry, my darling," I tried to brush off his concerns. "Everything is fine and under control."
He was having none of that. Regardless of how convincing I tried to sound, he could see through my cover.
"You know that there's a problem, why won't you tell me? You don't trust me anymore?" He asked, trying to use my emotions against me. He kept pestering me over and over again so he could get me to say something.
"My emotions are just all over the place," I said, sniffing back my tears.
"Everything would be fine," he chuckled, placing his hand on my head to comfort me."There's no need to worry at all."
"I'm sure that nothing is wrong with me," I said to him, but in my heart, I could only hope that all was well.
As he opened his mouth to speak to me, the doctor walked into the room and we both turned our attention to her, hoping to hear what she had to say.
She turned to me and smiled.
