My Mate Took Another’s Child While I Carried His

My mate Theo's puppy love, Elena, and I both got pregnant at the same time.

To protect Elena's reputation, he claimed her child as his and made my child, who was actually his, illegitimate.

When I confronted him, he said,

‘Elena doesn’t have a mate yet. If the Wolf Council finds out she’s pregnant out of wedlock, she’ll be banished from the Black Rose Pack! I have to help her!’

Later, while Theo accompanied Elena overseas to give birth, his parents forced me to have an abortion. By the time he returned, I had disappeared.

Aria POV

When I was at the pack clinic for a pregnancy checkup, I found my mate, Theo, with his first love, Elena.

“Theo, feel it, our baby is moving,” Elena said excitedly.

Theo pressed his ear to Elena's belly, smiling gently.

When he looked up, his gaze met mine.

“Aria?!” He said in shock. He instantly rushed over to me and grabbed my arm.

“Theo, let me go.” On the verge of breaking down, my voice came shaky.

“Aria, let me explain! Elena’s baby isn’t mine.”

Even though I tried to control it, tears fell uncontrollably from my eyes.

“Aria, please don’t cry. Believe me, I’m loyal to you. Her baby isn’t mine!”

He was about to pull me in his arms, but Elena interrupted him, coming over and looking at him with a pitiful expression.

Theo wiped away my tears and turned to Elena.

“Aria is my mate, she has the right to know the truth!”

“Then, in that case, we should tell Aria the whole truth. Let her know that for our reputation, the baby in her belly has to be considered an illegitimate child for now!” Elena said with a smug smile.

“What?!” Confusion and anger instantly replaced my sadness.

“What does she mean by that?” I demanded Theo.

“Sorry, Aria...” Theo stammered.

“Elena doesn’t have a mate yet. If the Wolf Council finds out she’s pregnant out of wedlock, they’ll expel her from the Black Rose Pack! I have to help her!”

“Then what about our child!” I screamed. “Are you going to abandon our own baby just to be a father to hers?”

“Calm down and listen to me, Aria!” Theo hugged me tightly. “I’m the heir to the Black Rose Pack’s Alpha position. If the werewolf council finds out I’ve been cheating and got two women pregnant, they could strip me of my Alpha inheritance.”

“So, you’re going to sacrifice my reputation and tell everyone my child is illegitimate?” I struggled to break free from his embrace.

“Aria, I’ve always been loyal to you! Can’t you make a little sacrifice for me and Elena? I promise, once I inherit the Alpha position, I’ll mark you and make you Luna! Our child won’t be illegitimate forever.”

I shook my head and smiled bitterly. “If you had
