FIVE YEARS LATER.

FIVE YEARS LATER.
Oceana's Pov.
I got up from the bed with an aching back, turned to the side of the bed and noticed Gerard wasn't present.
I quickly got up, wash up and put on my dress so no one would suspect anything.
However, last night was amazing.
I could never imagine he would be so good in bed and his crotch was big too, damn he was impressive.
I want him inside me again.
But why did he suddenly come to my bed yesterday and have sex with me.
A week passed, I searched for Gerard and he was nowhere to be found.
I barged into my parents chambers, worried and I saw them sipping their coffee and discussing between themselves.
"Sweetie, why did you barge in like that?' she asked and dropped down their coffee on the table in front of her.
"Where is Gérard?' I shouted at them.
"Don't you have manners, young lady?' she stepped in.
"Where is HE? I don't want to hear anything, if he isn't found as of this moment, I'm gonna get mad. He can't be missing again and disappearing. Where did you send him off to, mother?'
I didn't care anymore about my manners as I yelled as loud as I could.
My mother got up from her chair and slapped me so hard across my face.
"You are going to get married to the man I give you, your little disgusting romance with your brother is over." She dropped the bombshell on me.
I looked at her in horror and she just laughed wickedly.
"You think I don't know you are his mate, the truth is out already and he concealed it from us for years, he really tried hard. I wish I had prevented him from coming back here.'
And the next word that came out of my mouth.
"Where is he, Mother? If you don't provide him right this minute, I'm going to go find him, he is my mate. You have no right to take him away from me. He is all I have and how could you take him away? Where did he go?"
She yelled in my face. "He is your brother…"
I stepped and yelled back, took a vase and smashed it to the floor, injuring my hand in the process.
"I don't give a damn, if he is my brother, he was all I had. You knew that since I was a child, you took him away from me for eight years. He came back to me and you sent him away again. What the fuck is wrong with you?' How could you send the person I loved so much away from me, how dare you?'
She pointed her finger at me. "You know what, Oceana, I am your mother and you are going to do as you are told or else, I will have you dealt with, don't push me to the wall."
"Do your worst, if you don't bring him back, I will tell the whole world that he is my mate and there is nothing you can do about it, nothing, absolutely nothing, do you understand me.'
She lunged towards me, I held her hand filled with rage, my claws emerged piercing her arm, she screamed and before I knew what was happening, my father pushed me away from her, her arm was terribly bleeding.
"What on earth is wrong with you, Oceana, this is not the Alpha I raised for years.'
"And this is not the Alpha I knew as my father for years. I did everything you asked and made sure to please you, I didn't want to be a disappointing bitch to you. When my brother's left, I did everything to please you, I made sure you were happy but you took away my joy father.'
"If you don't stop this nonsense, I will make sure he never returns again.' my father's solemn tone got through me and scared me, he wasn't joking.
He was dead serious with me.
"So, you see, get married to Kai as soon as possible if you want Gerard to return, if not, I will not hesitate to make sure he never returns here again."
I sobbed so hard, sitting down on the floor and yelled at him. "Why are you this cold, isn't he your son anymore? WHY WOULD YOU TREAT YOUR SON THIS WAY?'
"I'm doing him a favor because he is my son, if he wasn't my son, I would have hanged him and cut off his head by myself." He went over to my mother and kissed her arm, it healed immediately and then, he turned to me. "Don't disappoint me, you are getting married to Kai in five days, be prepared, I have had enough of this childish attitude.'
He slowly walked away with my mother sobbing out of the chambers.
I was doomed.
Five days.
I was getting married in five days to Kai, I stood up and shook my head.
"No, no, I can't allow this to happen. I can't get married to Kai, that idiot was going to be my husband.
Tears streamed down my cheeks, I got up and saw Carmine was about to leave when I ran and blocked his path and held the collars of his shirt.
"Where is Gérard?' I demanded. "You must know where he is, please tell me? Where is he?' I begged.
"Stop holding me like that, I am not some thief you caught stealing your purse.' he glared.
I released my hands off him. "Where is he?' I felt so hopeless. "Why are you doing this to me, Carmine, you know what I go through, please, please, please, please, I'm begging with my life, tell me where he is…" I felt my strength, and blacked out and the only voice I could hear was Carmine's voice shouting in panic.
"OCEANA.'
What was the use of living if Gerard isn't by my side.


Five Years Later.
I walked along the roadway staring at the supermarkets, admiring couples giggling and romanticly kissing at a corner.
I smiled sadly and walked ahead on my red heels.
My feet were hurting so badly, so I stopped.
I bent down and took off my red heels, from my red painful feet.
I sighed and began walking again, feeling relieved and my feet were touching the ground as I strolled.
My long white hair blew away with the wind, my pale pink lips flushed at the cold.
My sparkling blue eyes shined in the dark.
I am an attractive young lady, you might say and of course, my skin was as delicate as a pudding rose.
I was slim and a bit curvy and taller than a female Alpha's height but I was okay.
It still feels like a dream up till now.
Five years huh!
When I got to the hospital, I could feel my chest on my throat, sweating profusely on my forehead, even though there was wind blowing around.
I sighed a thousand times, my eyes nearly popping out of my sockets from crying so much.
I composed myself and decided to get inside the hospital.
I knew he would be there waiting for me.
I went inside the hospital, strolled straight to the ward and met the doctor inside after knocking on his door.
"Hello, Mrs Oceana." He greeted me.
I smiled at him, took a seat and sat down.
He brought out an envelope and handed it over to me.
I took it hastily and tore off the seal, bringing out the test result.
I was devastated and nearly collapsed on the floor when he quickly came over to me and consoled me.
"Everything will be alright."
I got up, pushed him away from me as I came out of the ward, walking over to the reception, looking dejected.
My face were in tears as I wiped it off my cheeks and my direction moved to my husband as he sat down pressing his phone and when he left his eyes up at me.
He frowned.
I turned my face away from him and wanted to sit down when he broke the silence.
"What did the doctor say?' Garold asked without looking at me.
I nodded with a sad smile.
"He said I wouldn't be able to conceive.' I replied, hearing no response from him I went on. "He said if I should try to get pregnant, I could get a miscarriage or I could lose my life in the process."
"In other words, you can't get pregnant." He said still, typing on his phone and then he looked at me. "So, you are an empty vessel after all and all you could produce was one child."
My heart suddenly felt pierced with a dagger, I tried hard to breathe.
He sarcastically continued. "Such an empty barrel. All these years I've been wasting my sperm in a bottomless pit."
"Don't say that." I jolted up and hot tears poured down my face. "I am your wife." I struggled to speak.
"My wife?" He scoffed. "I don't think so." He got up and I quickly held his arm.
"What's the meaning of this?' He frowned.
"Don't leave, people will see you and please let's do this together."
"What do you want to do together, you are barren, Oceana. What should I do with someone like you.'
"Garold." I whispered, he forcefully pulled off my hand from his arm. "I'm getting married again, I need a child, a son to take over my name and rule, not some nutcase. If I had known you would be an Alpha this useless like you are, I would have thrown you out a long time ago." He walked out on me, putting on his jacket.
I fell to the floor and sobbed bitterly, I couldn't even give him a child, how pathetic of me.
I heard footsteps echoes coming to me.
I sniffed and knew the Luna of the pack, his mother was coming towards me.
I quickly stood up and bowed before her. "Greetings, Luna." I forced out, my heart tore into pieces.
"I heard about the devastating news from my son. I am very disappointed in you. I didn't expect that from you. I did not carry my son in my belly for three hundred and ninety-five thousand, two hundred minutes and thirty seconds so he could be with a dummy like you.'
"Mom,' I called her, getting up from the floor. "Not you too."
"What,' she snapped. "Why are both of you disgracing these families?" She yelled.
"I sacrificed so much for this family…"
"You did nothing Oceana, but pounce so much disgrace on this family, that's what you did." She talked back. "I regret giving my son to you instead of that maid."
Do you know the worst thing in life is to be placed on obligations, chosen for something you are not destined to do.
You don't love or neither did you anyway except it coming your way and I have tried for so long convincing myself to keep it up and swallow it down my throat.
It was a hard to pill to push down my throat, it was hard but I tried to do it anyway just for the sake of the realms and for my family's reputation.
It seems like I made a huge mistake.
. I felt nauseous and ran to the trashcan and threw up as long as I wanted.
When I was done, I took another pill and was about to drink it when the doctor held my hand.
"Don't do it, Alpha Oceana." he stopped me.
I burst out in tears and cried so much, he kept patting my shoulders.
I took a handkerchief from my bag and wiped the tears off my face.
"I can't do this anymore, I'm still going to have another miscarriage again, Ragnar, I don't want to go through this pain anymore, I'm fucking tired.'
