Surrogate For The Cursed Alpha

Aurora

Stepping into the hospital to see mom connected to three different machines made my heart bleed.

I wiped away all the tears as I sat beside mom and grabbed her hand, trying to fake a smile. I wanted to appear happy before her even though my heart was in turmoil.

"Mom. Dad has refused to give me the money but I assure you that I will find it. I applied for jobs yesterday and I've not gotten any jobs yet. I'm willing to go and work at the pack house. I heard the pay for the maids is very good and I'll do everything possible to get the job. I'd do anything for you mom." I whispered as tears streamed down my cheeks.

"I'll go home today, make you very hot tea because it rained heavily today and when you're awake I'll massage your legs. Mom. Please I want you to do something for me, while I run around to gather the money please hang in there. Don't give up because I'll find a way to save you." I whispered, sobbing quietly now as I kissed her hands.

"I've missed your cooking greatly. I promise not to ever take you for granted, I'll cherish every moment with you from now henceforth." I whispered and hearing the door squeak, I quickly wiped away my tears, my head glued to the ground as Doctor Wayne walked inside.

"Aurora."

"Doctor Wayne, good day. I just want to say thank you so much for this, it means the world to me." I whispered and he nodded.

"Have you started gathering the money? You know there's very little time left or have you changed your mind?" He asked and I shook my head vehemently.

"No! I would never choose such an option!" I insisted stubbornly and he exhaled deeply.

"Aurora, I've tried getting the beta to cover the cost of half of the medical fees, at least something to start with but he has refused and has cut off every possible way for you to get help from the pack. It's been a week, if this had been discovered early maybe she would be fine now but it's already getting too late and watching her suffer this way breaks my heart. I know it's difficult but think about it, if you don't get the money at the end of this week, I suggest euthanasia." He advised and I shook my head, biting back tears.

"No doctor, I will get the money and save mom. I promise. I don't mind taking a loan." I replied and he exhaled.

"Your father has blocked every chance possible. You need to figure out a way to get the money and seeing that your father is determined to have things go his way, I doubt if you will be able to find any job in the pack." He explained and I staggered back in astonishment.

As if throwing me out in the rain wasn't enough, he was determined to make our life a living hell. What have I done to deserve this? Why has the goddess forsaken us.

"Thank you doctor. You don't have to worry, I'll do anything to get the money, mom is going to get treated." It was hard to tell whether it was him or myself I was talking to.

He exhaled deeply, stared at her vitals for a moment and paused. He glanced at me closely and I was filled with confusion.

"Doctor Wayne, is there a problem?" I asked, my heart pounding heavily and he shook his head.

"Please, meet me in my office now." He muttered and I nodded, walking behind him.

Once inside the office, I sat on the chair calmly, my heart racing as I prayed fervently for it to be something different, goddess knew I was already going through a lot and more complications wasn't what I needed at this point.

"I hear two offers for you." Doctor Wayne handed me a cup of juice.

I don't like this at all. I gulped down the juice thirstily. "Offers?"

"You need the money and you can offer what I want, be rest assured I'm not asking you to sell your body." He added and I heaved a sigh of relief although I was still troubled.

"What are they?"

"The alpha is in need of a surrogate mother and Luna for five years. He's willing to pay a fortune, no strings attached, and after that five years, he will divorce you and take the child."

"That." I became speechless instantly and he stared at me patiently for an answer.

"You need the money urgently and he's willing to offer a million every month." Doctor Wayne added and my eyes widened with shock.

With that amount I could pay for mom's medical treatment and give her a better life.

"O.kay." I swallowed hard, trying to hide my apprehension. "And, the second offer?"

His gaze locked with mine. "I inject you with a different sperm, you become his Luna but before the end of your five year contract, you MUST kill the Alpha."

I flinched. My heart hammered with fear, and my wolf became restless inside me. She clawed at me to refuse the offer immediately! It was treason and the goddess knew my head would be hanging on the gates of the pack house if I got caught.

"I. I."

He smiled. It was a vile smile. "You know you will never amount to anything, not with your father determined to destroy you. The only person that can save you from him is the Alpha. So, you can either accept my bidding, save your mom and secure a future for yourself or refuse my offer and wait for your weak mother in hell. You have five minutes to decide." He replied coldly and I felt a sharp pain in my heart.

He flashed a tiny bottle before me, his head cocked as he waited for my answer while a little clock ticked away, reminding me that it was my life against that of the Alpha.
