Don't Date Your Sister's Sworn Enemy

Chapter 3 Twins in My Belly

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then Danielle's steady voice came, "Why are you asking about him? He is nothing but a dirt hound; he doesn't deserve to be in your world. I know you live in the same city, so if you ever run into him, keep your distance. Am I clear?"

In short, Danielle hated Sebastian very much, and she thought little of him. To call an Alpha male a dirt hound was an insult to their pedigree.

After ending the call, I walked into our luxury apartment. I hissed slightly, and my lower abdomen seemed to hurt more.

I took out the recent ultrasound report from my bag.

There were two gestational sacs in my belly. Twins. I couldn’t believe it.

When I found out the result, I was so happy that I burst into tears. But now, I was crying with heartache.

I put down the report, endured the pain in my abdomen, packed my luggage, and prepared to leave the place where Sebastian and I had made too many memories.

"Ivy."

Is Sebastian back? I quickly picked up the report and stuffed it under the cushions of the reading chair in the corner of the room.

Sebastian walked into the master bedroom and saw me standing by the reading chair, with a suitcase behind me. His handsome eyebrows furrowed, "Where are you going?"

I stared closely at Sebastian, "My sister is coming tomorrow."

When mentioning my sister, a strange look flashed in Sebastian's eyes. I couldn't help but bitterly think that if I hadn't heard his friends talking tonight, I wouldn't have noticed his stiff expression just now.

"I'll send someone to pack for you. Tomorrow, I'll take you to pick her up. Don't leave tonight." Sebastian took a step forward, pulled me into his arms, gently sniffed the familiar scent in my hair.

I pushed Sebastian away. Suddenly, my lower abdomen ached again. I frowned and subconsciously covered my stomach.

As usual, Sebastian was attentive, his voice concerned, "Stomachache?"

"Maybe my period is coming. I'll go to the bathroom." I hurried to the bathroom.

In the bathroom, I found that I was bleeding.

I closed my eyes. I really should have listened to the doctor and not indulged Sebastian's needs.

However, it didn't matter. Even if they were twins, I wouldn't keep them. Their father never wanted them. He saw them as a way to humiliate me and the River's Run pack and I wouldn’t bear the mocked shame.

I took out a new pair of underwear from the cabinet and put on a sanitary pad, deliberately throwing the blood-stained underwear in a conspicuous place in the trash can.

Sebastian was a playboy, but he wasn’t unaware of what spotting in a female's underwear would mean. He was more perceptive than most, and only when he saw it with his own eyes would he believe that I was on my period.

He would never presume it to be pregnancy, though.

Walking out of the bathroom, Sebastian came in with a tray of tea and cookies.

Even his walking posture was so attractive. He was indeed a favourite of heaven. Or spawned from the pits of Hell. I wasn't sure.

Sebastian's phone rang. He put down the tray, bent down to stroke my hair, "I'll answer a call. Ivy, drink it while it's hot."

I nodded slightly.

Sebastian's figure disappeared at the door. I walked to the dining table, looking at the porcelain cup on the tray.

It was Chamomile tea with honey.

Every time I had my period, Sebastian would make it a point to bring me cookies personally. He was so good at details. That's why it was so easy to get addicted. No one took such care of me before.

I picked up the porcelain cup and poured the tea into the sink without hesitation.

I was about to retrieve the report from under the chair cushion when Sebastian came in, having just answered the call.

I grabbed the suitcase. "Sebastian, I'm leaving."

My soft and docile appearance was as usual, but my voice was a little cold, not as reluctant as before when I had to part with him.

Sebastian was silent for a moment, then got up, "I'll help you with your luggage."

He took the suitcase from my hand. I glanced at the chair, and my eyes widened with slight panic. I hoped that Sebastian wouldn't find the report before I returned to retrieve it.

Outside the building complex, I sat in the driver's seat of the tainted sports car. I reversed slowly and drove out of the parking lot. After passing through the complex area, I accelerated and rushed to the hospital.

I was still slightly bleeding, but after an examination, the doctor said it wasn't serious. I could leave after an injection to protect the fetus. I was reminded again to be careful at home and was severely criticized for my recklessness.

If only he had known just how reckless I had been.

"I don't want this child. Can I have an abortion now?" My tone was firm, without the softness of the girl I had once been.

"Are you crazy? Twins! So many people wish for them, but you want to abort them?"

I knew how lucky I was to be pregnant with twins, Alpha pups. But what the doctor didn’t understand was that their father would never accept them. They would be mocked and shunned as bastards if allowed to be born now. I had to protect them.

The doctor's persuasion didn't shake my determination. I still insisted on aborting.

The doctor sighed helplessly, "If you insist on aborting, after the operation today, you need to be on bed rest for at least two days. Light bleeding and cramps are normal for a couple of weeks after."

I was going to meet my sister tomorrow, so it was not suitable to have an abortion tonight. I had decided to get the injection to protect the fetus for the time being.

Back at my own apartment, I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower. Tonight, I hadn't had time to wash, so I still carried Sebastian's scent all over me.

My mind filled with the memory of how passionate we had been from the moment we met.

Alphas usually hated the idea of condoms. It was against their nature. Shortly after we became intimate, Sebastian found my birth control. He pushed against the idea. The following day, when he saw me reaching for my pills, he refused to allow them as they posed a health risk, and he let me know that I didn't need to take them anymore because he had a vasectomy.

His wanton display of affection made me fall for him over the course of two years. After my parents' ultimatum and the idea of a rushed engagement party, it was I who begged him to get it reversed because I thought we were in love and had already promised to marry.

Now, it only made me feel sick.

I leaned over the toilet and vomited at the thought of touching him again.

After showering, my whole body smelled of the fragrance from my shower gel, but I still felt dirty. Even if I scrubbed my skin until it was almost broken, I couldn't wash myself clean.

At two o'clock in the morning. I was still restless. So, I called my friend, Scarlet.

"Scarlet, I need your help. How do I make a man fall hopelessly in love with me?"

"Ivy, there have been so many men who have loved you hopelessly since childhood. Why are you worried about this? Just open your eyes and see, they’ve always been there, waiting for you to notice."

I had a curvy figure, olive skin, waist-length black straight hair, and long, thick lashes that made my hazel eyes even more captivating. I was always taught to be elegant, gentle, and well-behaved. All River Run's she-wolves were meant to carry that image.

"He's not an ordinary man."

Scarlet was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Please tell me that you don’t mean Sebastian."

“Hmm.”Scarlet and I had known each other since childhood, and I had only ever paid attention to one man. That man was Sebastian.

"Didn't you stop liking him a long time ago? A man as promiscuous as him, you can't outplay him. Don't end up getting yourself involved and being taken advantage of by him. That would be far too unworthy."

But I've already been taken advantage of by him. Could there be anything more terrible than this?

I pressed my lips together. "I know my limits."

"Then tell me why?"

I suppressed my emotions, "Because he wants to destroy the pack. Is that reason enough?"

"The Rivers Run pack has Danielle leading it. She has been training under your father for years, Ivy. She is more than capable of crushing him if he were to try. You don’t understand their history, so don’t get involved."

“Scarlet, what do you mean...”

Scarlet suddenly paused, realizing that she had said too much, and tried to change the subject, "Nothing. Danielle is so calculated in pack politics. Sebastian would be a fool to challenge her or the pack. Don't worry so much, he can't do anything to the pack. Hillbrooks have protected us for generations.

"You're hiding something from me." I said my heart throbbed, "Don't hide it. Tell me everything you know."
