Chapter 6
**Kataleya's POV**
I felt hands touching my forehead and I jolted awake, swinging my hands out and flipping the person over me, me hovering over the top of them, one hand on her throat.
I blinked a few times to clear the sleep from my eyes and realized that it was just Dr. Leigh. I clambered off of her as quickly as I could and apologized profusely.
“I am sorry, Dr. Leigh. I did not realize that you were there. You scared me awake. I thought you were an attacker...and well, I attacked.”
She chuckled as she climbed off my bed. “It is no big deal, Kataleya. I should not have scared you. I should have made my presence known. Alpha Justin asked me to come and check on you. He was worried that you were coming down with a cold. I told him that I would pop in after I had fixed Oliver. He had gotten pretty banged up during training today. Poor boy spared with Justin and was knocked on his ass. He told me that he thought it was a good idea to taunt your mate, so your mate taught him a lesson.”
I laughed, shrugging my shoulders and shaking my head. “You know, you would think that Oliver would have learned his lesson by now. Justin was the best warrior in the pack before we had mated. Once we mated, he had some of my genes and genetics flowing through his blood, which just made him ten times stronger. I guess it will take Justin to break a major bone in his body before he realizes that he cannot get the one-up on my mate. Oliver used to be like this with me until I knocked him out when he called me a bitch.”
Dr. Leigh laughed. “Yeah, you know how boys are. Always trying to prove something. In this case, trying to prove who is the strongest. So, Justin said you are not feeling well and haven't been for the past couple of days. Tell me what has been going on with you?”
I sighed. I should have known Justin would have called the doctor when I started to throw up. “The past couple of days I have been really sluggish and nauseous. Then, this morning when I woke up, I guess I had rolled out of bed too quickly and the moment that I touched the ground I was feeling nauseous and dizzy. I thought I was going to throw up, but I didn't. Then, I was fine. I went to the bathroom and showered. I went to my office and worked on paperwork and video called Michael. One of the Omegas brought Justin and I some breakfast and as soon as she opened the door, the smell of the food wafted to me and I ran to the bathroom. I am sure that I may have scared the poor Omega into thinking something was wrong. I hope Justin reassured her that everything was okay..." Dr. Leigh looked thoughtful. “Alpha, when was your last heat?”
I had to think back for a moment. Hmmm...when was my last heat?
“Ummm...it was about a month ago. Justin and I had to take off and left Oliver in charge for three days.”
"And when was the last time you had intercourse?”
"Which time? You mean where we both finished? Or the last time we tried something? Those are very distinctive differences.”
She laughed, “The last time you both finished. I cannot believe that I have to make this distinction for you.”
I shrugged my shoulders. “Sorry, but some of the warriors apparently needed our help the last time we were deep in the throes...Justin even threatened them at last. He told them, 'l am chopping the dicks off the next person that interrupts me.’ He was very mad. I can't say that I blame him. I was pretty pissed too. The last time both of us finished was two weeks ago. We tried to have sex two times in the past week, but we were interrupted both times and Justin threatened those warriors the second time. Justin told me he had a severe case of blue balls from the interruptions,” I finished with a laugh.
"Don't freak out. I am going to run a few tests.” She pulled a cup out of her bag that she had with her. “I need you to go to the bathroom and pee in this cup.” She handed me a moist towelette. “Before you pee, I need you to wipe the front and back with this. The beginning of the stream you will not catch. So, wait a few seconds after you start to pee before you start catching the stream in the cup.”
I gulped, knowing what she intended to test for, and made my way to the bathroom. I followed her directions, just as she had asked me to, and then I washed my hands and left the bathroom. I handed her back the cup. I watched as she pulled a pregnancy test out of her bag and used my pee on the pregnancy test.
I started picking at my nails, the nerves starting to set in. I guess it would make sense with the way that I have been feeling lately. If I was pregnant though, I wondered why my wolf had not said anything to me yet. Usually, Skye is pretty quick about making note of any changes within my body. “Nope, haven't noticed anything funny! Everything has been fine. I think you have a wee cold, Kat." Skye chirped happily in my head
I swear she is always in a good mood when I am not feeling well.
We waited for five minutes for the results to pop up on the test.
"Congratulations, Alpha. You are pregnant.”
She held up the test and showed it to me and I just sat there, stunned. I am pregnant. I am really pregnant. I placed my hand on my stomach, resting it there. I cannot believe it. I could feel my heart racing as I considered all the possibilities and what it would mean for me to be pregnant.
I guess on the bright side, we know that I am not getting a cold. Colds are rare for any wolf to get because of how quickly we heal. I laid my head back against the pillow thinking about how I was going to tell Justin.
Suddenly, I was very tired.
"You need to rest. I am assuming that you do not want me to tell Alpha Justin. Don't worry. Your secret is safe with me, I promise.” With those final words, she left me alone, allowing me to drown in my thoughts.
