idental Surrogate For Alpha Novel Chapter 27
3rd Person
The doctor smiled at E and Sinir, pleased to be able to deliver good news for once. “Your baby is
just fine.” He shared, watching the tension seep out of the expectant parents in front of him. “As I said,
some spotting is perfectly normal in the early stages, and everything else looks perfect.”
Sinir squeezed E to his chest, kissing her hair while she tried not to burst into tears of joy. The
doctor let them have a moment to celebrate before continuing, “I am worried about E’s blood
pressure, however. It was probably just the stress of the emergency, but it’s something we have to be
very careful of. If hypertension persists, it could develop into a condition called preempsia, which
can be very dangerous for both mother and pup.”
E was still reveling in their good news, but Sinir was immediately alert at the mention of a potential
danger. “So what do we do? Just keep an eye on it?”
“I’m going to send you home with a portable test kit so you can check her blood pressure at home, you
should do it every day until it stabilizes and then every week until delivery. Of course if it remains high
you need to see your regr OBGYN right away. And more than anything else, you need to avoid
stress, E.” The physician advised.
E nodded in agreement, though in truth she wasn’t sure this goal was entirely achievable. She was
about to be a first time mother, all the while grappling with a false identity, supernatural society, and
political campaign. Stress seemed like an inevitability.
“Thank you doctor,” Sinir professed, “we’ll do everything we can to keep her rxed.” E wasn’t
sure she liked the sound of that – if Sinir tried to keep her on bed rest or anything of the sort, it
wasn’t going to go over well. She was so lost in her thoughts, she didn’t realize Sinir was watching
her and all but reading her mind. “Won’t we, little mate?” He added pointedly.
This jolted E back to the present, and she looked up at Sinir with wide eyes, thinking – not for the
first time – that she needed to do a better job paying attention to the powerful Alpha if she wanted to
get through this pregnancy with her wits intact. “Yes, Dominic.”
________________
That afternoon Sinir struggled to focus on his work. All he could think about was E and the baby,
and he was sorely tempted to take the rest of the day off to look after them. He’d already blown off all
his morning meetings for that very purpose, and though E had encouraged him to go about his
business as usual, his mind was on anything but business.
He was just about to collect his things and tell Hugo he was calling it a day, when a knock sounded on
his door. “Come in.”
The investigator he’d hired to look into E and subsequently track down her lowlife ex-lover poked his
head inside. “Alpha, he’s here.”
That got Sinir’s attention. Maybe he would be able to get something worthwhile done today after all.
“Bring him in.” He instructed coolly.
When Mike stumbled in the austere office a few minutester – practically thrown inside by Sinir’s
guards – he looked around in nervous confusion. Sinir studied the human closely, trying to convince
his wolf that attacking the wretched man wasn’t a very honorable thing to do – considering his
advantages in speed, strength and power. Still, it was tempting. He didn’t know what E had ever
seen in the man, and he suspected that Mike’s mental maniption and gaslighting had gone a long
way towards forcing her to settle for someone so inferior.
For all her spirit and intelligence, Sinir knew that E had suffered a love-starved upbringing. It
wasn’t hard to imagine that she could fall head over heels for the first person to show her any attention,
even letting them convince her she didn’t deserve any better than their mistreatment and disdain. He
thought of Mike telling her she was a bad kisser, wondering how far the creep’s insults had gone – did
she also think she was bad in bed, bad at keeping a house or doing everyday things? How worthless
had this human made her feel for his own gain?
It infuriated Sinir to imagine anyone mistreating sweet E this way, and he was all the more
impressed that she had been able toe out of the ordeal with so much strength of will. He growled
before he could stop himself, and Mike froze in his tracks, staring at Sinir in surprise and obvious
fear. “What is this? Why did you bring me here?”
“This, is your just desserts.” Sinir answered coldly, rising from his chair. “Do you know who I am,
Mike?”
“You’re that billionaire that’s always on TV.” Mike countered, barely containing a jealous sneer.
“That’s right.” Sinir smirked. “I’m also E’s new fiance.” He lied, going with a simr story to the one
they were telling the shifters. “We’re expecting a child together, despite your efforts to make her
infertile.”
All the blood drained from Mike’s face. He stood frozen for a long moment before shaking his head in
disbelief. “You’re lying. We only just broke up and she would never have cheated on me, the stupid
bitch was too spineless to –”
Sinir’s wolf snarled out a warning so fierce that Mike all but wet himself, suddenly realizing on an
instinctive level that the being in front of him was no normal human – but a dangerous predator. “If you
have any sense at all you’ll shut your fucking mouth before you say another word against her.” Sinir
thundered.
Mike backed away towards the door, trembling like a leaf. “I… wh- what are you?”
“Not anyone you want to cross.” Sinir informed him, prowling forward, stalking his vile prey as if he
were nothing more than a deer in the woods.
“This is crazy!” Mike objected. “I haven’t done anything wrong.”
“Do not lie to me!” Sinir barked, “I know everything, you leech. You took advantage of that angel,
knowing exactly how vulnerable she was. You ruined E’s life – wrecked her finances, poisoned her
body, betrayed hermitment and made her think she didn’t deserve any better!” Sinir reached out
and closed his powerful hand around the scrawny human’s neck, forcing his back up against the door.
“You are not a man, you are spineless, despicable little weasel, and if you want to keep your head on
your shoulders you are going to make things right!”
“What?!” Mike choked, wing at Sinir’s tight grip, “how?”
“You’re going to go to the police, and sign a full confession. E already filed a police report, and you’re
going to turn yourself in and pay back every cent you stole from her.” Sinirmanded, “I don’t care
if you have to work for a hundred years, you’re going to make it right.”
“But I don’t have that kind of money!” Mike objected frantically, bing near hysterical as Sinir
lifted his feet off the ground. In the back of his mind Sinir momentarily worried about making a habit
of attacking men this way, but he couldn’t deny that Mike and Roger both deserved it.
“Then you can rot in prison!” Sinir answered ferociously. “It’s that or I gut you right here.”
“No!” Mike shouted frantically, “Please, don’t hurt me! I’ll do whatever you say!”
“Good.” Sinir rumbled. “Because if you don’t I will make you wish you’d never been born.”

A little whileter a shrill ringtone filled E’s suite at Sinir’s estate. She picked up her phone, seeing
the local police station’s number scrolling across the screen. “Hello?”

“Hello, Ms. Reina?” A male voice replied on the other end of the line.
“Speaking.” She confirmed.
“This is Moon Valley Police Department, we’re calling in reference to a report you filedst week?” The
man referenced.
“Yes?” E questioned sitting up a little straighter. The officers hadn’t given her any hope that her case
would ever be resolved, so she didn’t have the faintest idea why they were calling.
“Your ex-boyfriend turned himself in this afternoon.” The officer shared, “he doesn’t have the funds to
pay the bills he umted in your name,
