Chapter 2: Leaving...
Selene POV
The phone slipped from my hand and clattered on the ground as I froze with shock.
A baby? Was it even possible?
"Selene!" Lucius stared at me with worry "Are you alright? Did something happen?"
"No," I shook my head still in a daze, I managed a small smile "I'm fine, just tired. I'll go to my room now and rest,".
"Are you sure?" his gaze searched mine doubtfully.
"Yes, Lucius," I nodded "I'm just tired and a little rest would help me. You know how tired I get,".
"Maybe I should call Xavier," he suggested and pulled out his phone.
Tears blurred my eyes as I thought about how Xavier would react if I told him about the baby. He has drummed it into my head several times that he didn't want a baby with me. That he didn't love me and if I tried to be stubborn and get pregnant we would be on our own... I and the baby.
"You know it'll change nothing," I said softly placing a hand on his arm to stop him "I already wasted his time this morning when he drove me to the Pack Hospital. He will not come again,".
I saw pity flash in Lucius's eyes as he nodded and insisted that he would see me to my room before he leaves. As Xavier's Beta... there was not much he could do. Like me, he was bound to Xavier through the Beta bond and there were certain things he couldn't do.
