Reclaiming My Broken Luna (Astrid and Killian)

Chapter 64: The Heir



Giselle's POV

The Pack Doctor's brows furrowed as he fixed his gaze upon me. His lips parted slightly as if the words he wished to convey had become momentarily lodged in their throat.

I knew what he was thinking. That look of judgment in his eyes is all too familiar to me. Yet, he didn't say anything. He knew that one word out of his mouth, then I might just well kill him now to hide my dark secret.

So, with hesitation in his eyes and a heavy weight in his heart, he slowly lowered his head before me in surrender.

"Y-Yes, Luna," he stammered as he forced out his words.

Hearing the tremble in his voice, I was not fully convinced that he would be trusted with my secret.

However, I had no choice; he is a Doctor, and even if I kill him, someone is going to replace him and find out about the real gender of my child.

I need a Doctor that I could trust and work for me to hide the identity of my child.

I need to gain his trust and make sure he won't betray me.

"Good," I muttered beneath my breath.

He pursed his lips together in fear.

"I am a very generous person, Doctor. As long as you keep up the good work, I can help you with your career. You won't only be the best Doctor in this Pack, but you might be a renowned specialist to all Packs and even a famous doctor to the humans.”

His eyes brightened as my words filled his imagination. He swallowed hard as he thought about my tempting offer.

"Why don't you call the others? They must have been waiting anxiously for me outside. Why don't we tell them the good news you have right now?" I suggested, steeling him out of his thoughts.

The Pack Doctor vigorously nodded his head and did as I said. They have been waiting patiently for me outside, and the Pack Doctor only had to poke his head out the door to call them inside.

“Giselle, are you all right?" Victoria approached me instantly after she first entered the room.

I forced out a cough as I lay weakly on the bed. "I'm feeling much better now," I muttered weakly as I forced out a weak smile.

Victoria's brows bent down in pity as soon as she saw my state. "You need to rest more, Giselle. Take care of yourself. The baby needs you to be healthy in order to survive," Victoria replied, still caring only about the baby.

This is the reason why they should not know I'm having a daughter. It will change everything once that happens.

I glanced at Killian and forced a smile towards his way as he stood up behind his mother. My breath hitched when Damien suddenly appeared behind Killian.

I thought he had left already. What is he doing here?

"How is the baby?" Damien asked the Doctor as soon as he entered the room.

"The baby is. There's no need to worry. As long as Giselle rests and avoids any stress, she will grow perfectly fine," The Pack Doctor

answered, making Damien feel comforted.

Just like the other two people in the room, Damien only cared about his child.

"I thought Giselle needed rest. Why did you call us inside?" Killian asked as he placed his hands inside his pockets.

The Pack Doctor glanced at me, and I flashed him a fake excited smile. "I have something to tell everyone."

"Is there something wrong with the baby?" Damien intervened before the Pack Doctor could continue.

Victoria and Killian glanced at him with questions in their eyes. Damien is acting, obviously. He cares more about the baby than he should have.

"The baby is fine!" I interjected

before anyone could rush into any assumptions. "It's good news, and I couldn't wait to tell everyone, so I requested to have you all here." Content belongs to

swr

I glanced at the Pack Doctor with a smile on my face, asking him to tell everyone the news without saying a word.

"I just found out the gender of the baby."

Victoria gasped in excitement while the two looked at the Pack Doctor expectantly.

“Congratulations, you are having a boy!" The Pack Doctor announced.

Victoria covered her mouth in shock and leaped in joy when she heard the news. Meanwhile, Damien and Killian shared the same expression. They were in shock, but a smile lifted the corner of their lips.

"I knew it! I knew that I was going to have a grandson! The Pack is going to have a future heir!" Victoria shouted in joy as she looked at me with pride in her eyes.

I glanced at the Pack Doctor, who didn't say a word. He just watched as everyone burst out in happiness.

Damien looked shocked, and he suddenly teared up, unable to contain his joy since he knew he was the real father of my child.

Killian and Victoria's eyes were on me, so no one noticed Damien's reaction.

"My son, I'm going to be a father soon," Killian spoke in disbelief as he stared at me with joy in his eyes.

"Yes, Killian. You are going to be the father of our son," I replied as I forced out tears from my eyes.

I know Killian and Victoria would

have the opposite reaction if I said that I'm having a daughter. They would abandon me, and instead of joy, they would look at me with hatred in their eyes.

I need to do something. I need to make a plan on how I can fake my birth and have a son.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
