Chapter 3

• Isabella's pov
• It was not until five minutes did I realize that I was running. Running away from the pack I had known all my life. Running away from my only friend and cousins. Running away from my mate and the father of my unborn children. I didn't know where I was running to but I knew I just had to leave the pack without letting Ethan harm me or my babies.
• I ran for four hours in my condition before I realized that no one was chasing me. I wondered if anyone ever chased me. My brain was fuzzy, I could only remember running after Ethan who rejected me and my unborn child for the umpteenth time.
• Feeling dizzy and tired, I gently put my hand over my stomach as I tried to steady my beat. ‘I am not leaving you, it's just us now,’ robbing my belly as I whispered to the unborn child.
• I weakly walked into an unknown environment, with big billboards and tall buildings everywhere. I have never been outside the pack and I was lost and unsure where to go.
• As I was about to cross the big tarred road, I fell down feeling exhausted. I laid flat on the road in a fetus position, trying to hide my face from the scorching sun. I thought about dying here, it would be better to end my life and my baby's suffering. I quietly closed my eyes, waiting for the unexpected and giving a chance to death.

• When I woke up, I was in a white room. It was very uncomfortable for me. When I looked around, it was only then that I realized that I was at the hospital.
• I sat up on the bed breathing heavily.
• Then the door opened, and a man in his scrubs walked to me with a casual smile on his face. Written on his name tag was Dr. Richie.
• “Good day, Miss Isabella. Do you feel any better now?”
• “Dr Richie,” I said out loud nervously. “I don't know what happened to me but I just fell and lost consciousness. Could it be a heart disease or something? Also, how do you know my name?”
• “Congratulations Miss Isabella, you're pregnant with Triplet" he said with a smile on his face.
• “What?!”
• "Triplet? Lying helplessly on the hospital bed, I look at Dr Richie in shock, was this real or am I hearing things? How was it even possible to be pregnant with Triplet? This and many more questions were running through my head".
• "Yes triplet" he confirmed pointing at the monitor that was in front of me. Seeing my triplet curled up in my belly, tears welled up in my eyes, they were really triplet.
• The doctor prescribed some medicine for me and told me about the young men who brought me here. I honestly didn't have any money on me to pay my bills but when the doctor told me about the young men I was so eager to see them.
• “The gentlemen outside are taking care of the bills, so you need not to bother.”
• “What… What gentlemen,” I asked, scared that maybe Ethan had already found me.
• “The ones who found you on the roadside and were so kind to bring you here.”
• “Oh!” I said remembering how I laid on the roadside waiting for death.
• “Can they come in?” the doctor asked. “I am done with your check up and you and your baby seem perfectly fine. They have been dying to see you".
• “Okay doctor.”
• Before they entered I could smell them. Their Alpha smell was so strong that it filled her nostril.
• “Hello,” a voice boomed. I knew the voice didn't mean to. It was just one of the traits that comes with being an Alpha.
• “Hi,” I meekly responded as I stared at the two strangers.
• “I told you Jayden, she's so cute,” the youngest of the two men said while elbowing the older one.
• “Apologize for our manners. We are Jayden and Kayden. I am Kayden and he is Jayden,” the younger one introduced.
• “We were the one who saw you on the roadside and brought you here.”
• “The doctor told me, thank you.”
• “Which doctor, there was no doctor in here,” Kayden spoke again.
• “What!” She said with panic across her face.
• “Relax, he was just kidding with you. My brother here loves joking a lot,” spoke Jayden for the first time.
• “We are glad that you are doing alright. We have cleared your medical bills. We have to go now. We're running behind schedule for the meeting.”
• “We are already late,” Jayden said as he looked at his watch.
• “I am sorry,” Isabella said.
• “We don't mind… eh! What's your name? We never got it.”
• “Isabella. Isabella Darkclaw.”
• “Isabella, we don't mind missing the meeting.”
