Pregnant By My Best Friend Alpha Chapter 4

Kyra’s POV

I was lying on the bed, naked under the white sheets. I stared at Nathan’s handso face. His eyes were deep brown. His eyebrows were thick and black, complenting his beautiful eyes. His nose was proud and pointed, and his lips were red and thin. He literally looked like a sexy bad boy.

He was looking at with care, with admiration. My heart fluttered. He was my best friend, but I felt like we could be more than that. I was in love with him. So in love that I felt like I would die if I lost him.

"Why are you staring at like that?"

I swallowed hard, the discomfort between my legs a reminder of last night—the night I gave myself to him. After we got married.

"What if I get pregnant?"

He didn’t love the way I loved him. He only married because of his grandparents. His grandmother was sick, and our families were allies. A political union, nothing more. I never expected him to agree.

His fingers brushed my cheek, his expression softening. "Kyra, you know I’m not ready to be a father. I’m not even ready for this marriage. I only did this for my grandparents. I know you have the sa reason?"

I felt my heart breaking apart at what he said. I gave him a smile even though I was breaking inside. He moved closer to , hugged , and gently placed a kiss on my forehead. I sucked in my breath and squeezed my eyes closed. This was insane! Really insane! Why did I even fall in love with my best friend?

"Kyra..."

"Kyra, wake up..."

A hand shook my shoulder. "Kyra, co on! Why did you sleep here?"

I slowly opened my eyes and lifted my face. I realized I had fallen asleep on my office table, and now my neck and back were sore.

"Nathan?" I stared at the man beside .

"You look exhausted. Have you been working overti these past few days?"

I stared at his face. He was here. Why was he here? From what I rembered, he went out with his first love. I felt a pang in my chest at that thought.

"What ti is it?"

He smiled. "Almost 4 PM. I ca with soone."

"Soone?" My forehead creased as I glanced around, and my mood instantly changed when I saw Sophia sitting comfortably on the couch, watching . There was disgust in her eyes, but the mont Nathan looked her way, she imdiately flashed a sweet smile.

"I brought Sophia here to talk about our contract with her. She will be our new model."

I looked at Nathan again with a blank face. Bumr!

"Co here, Sophia. Kyra will talk to you about the contract."

"Contract? She’s supposed to undergo an interview and pass it, Nathan."

He looked at and scratched his cheek. "About that, Kyra. Can we let her pass without it? You know, for old ti’s sake."

"You’d bend the rules for anyone for old tis’ sake?"

Nathan’s expression imdiately changed. He clenched his jaw and glanced at Sophia while my eyes remained on him, watching his reaction.

"I-It’s okay if I have to undergo an interview, Nathan."

Sylvia snarled in my mind. "That she-wolf reeks of hypocrite."

I know, I thought back. But he can’t sll it through her scent.

Sophia caught my attention because of what she said. I looked at her with a stoic expression on my face.

"You must like cutting corners," I said nonchalantly.

"Kyra!" Nathan grabbed my arm and looked at Sophia apologetically. The air grew thick with oppressive energy—Nathan was exerting his Alpha dominance. As a mber of his pack, I had no choice but to submit to his command.

I clenched my jaw and looked him in the eyes. "You’re the Alpha, Nathan. You can do whatever you want."

His forehead creased as he slowly shook his head. "What’s wrong with you?"

"Nothing." I shook my head, grabbed my bag, and pulled my arm back from him, forcing a smile. "Break a leg."

The cruelest irony? He didn’t even understand why I was like this. His instinct to protect his mate drove him to act this way—except the mate he was determined to protect wasn’t .

"Kyra!"

I walked out of my own office with a heavy heart. I kept clenching my jaw and gritting my teeth. He was dumb. He was just handso, but he was dumb! He dared to bring his fated mate to ? Insensitive bastard.

"Kyra!"

I ignored him and continued walking. The employees around were watching us, but I didn’t give a damn. I went straight to the elevator and pressed the button for the basent parking lot. The elevator doors slid shut between us, his frustrated face the last thing I saw.

I didn’t want to argue with him about Sophia. So I better leave now and let them do what they want. I just couldn’t accept the fact that Sophia was so shaless as to show her face to after she ca back like nothing had happened and began treating my gullible mate like a dog.

Luke was already waiting for in the car when I reached the parking lot. He was puffing on a cigarette again, but he imdiately threw it down and stomped it out when he saw coming.

"Drive ho," I said coldly as I got into the car.

I pressed my lips together and took a deep breath, putting a hand to my belly. Stay calm. For my pup.

"Luke..."

"Yes, Luna Kyra?"

I sighed and shook my head. "Never mind."

When I got ho, I imdiately cleaned myself up. I took a shower and started cooking dinner for myself. I bet Nathan was already eating with the bitch who was his fated mate. It made bitter.

"KYRA!"

Nathan’s roar echoed through the house. He stord in, neck flushed with rage.

"What did you do?"

I arched a brow. "I cooked."

He gripped my shoulders. "You told my father about Sophia! Why did you do that?"

"You recklessly go out with your fated mate, and now you’re putting the bla on ? News really does travel fast. Fascinating, isn’t it?"

"Don’t get sarcastic with , Kyra! You know what I truly feel about her. Why are you doing this to ? All I ask is your understanding, Kyra! You don’t have to do this!"

I pushed him away angrily. "Why are you taking it out on ? Are you sure that it was ?"

"No one would do this except you, Kyra! Now I know why sothing was off. You’re angry with and now you’re dragging our family into this!"

I laughed sarcastically and pushed the chair away. It fell on the tiled floor, creating a loud thud, but I didn’t care. I looked him in the eye as I fought the rage inside . He was acting like this because of his fated mate. He was unbelievable.

"If dumb people could swim, you would be a fish."

"Don’t turn your back on —"

"Oh, I will!" I growled angrily as I glared at him. "I would turn my back on you whenever I want, Nathan. But you know what? I can’t. I want to, but I can’t! Do you understand that? I badly want to leave you now because you’re treating like trash. You said I’m important to you. You said I’m one of the people you treasure, but this? Is this how you treat your treasure?"

His lips parted as he stared into my eyes. I shook my head with trembling lips.

"You know what? If I were to get rid of her, I would go straight to her and smash her face with a freaking silver baseball bat rather than play the stupid housewife. You’re barking up the wrong tree, Nathan."
