Alpha Jake came to check on us, and Kara told him my illness had worsened, and I needed to rest.
We also told him we would like to leave as early as five in the morning.
He thanked us for staying and attending the festival and hoped we would see each other soon.
I assured him the party would not be far, and he promised to attend.
I was restless most of the night, and it took a while before sleep came.
Contrary to what we said would happen, we woke around six- in the morning, and I was too sick to do much.
I wondered if it was the rejection that made my sickness
worse.
Denis drove us to Gad, where we got into the jet to return to the north.
I heaved most of the time in the car, and my skin was burning.
I wanted to know if Hardy was affected too, but somehow I doubted it. I believe it was mainly because of my sickness.
The flight felt like forever, and when we landed in the north,

Brian Wilson, whom I did not like much for slapping me when they brought us to the north, was there to receive us.
He saluted us and treated us with the utmost respect.
I thought he would want to slap me again, and I wanted to tease him about it, but my physical health and sadness did not let me tease him.
We arrived at the estate, and I was eager to see Darius, but none of them was home; neither he nor Marcel nor Raphael.
Eloise came to receive us, and we went to my room. By then, it was evident that I was ill.
“What happened to her?” I heard Eloise ask Kara while she used a cold towel to bring down my temperature.
“She was sick before we left, but it took a turn for the worse last night,” Kara said, and Eloise was worried.
“Please, get better because Nellie is back, and she is a terrible bitch now. She has taken over the estate, and Darius does not even care,” she said, and I heaved.
I was in no physical condition to banter with anyone.
“Call Darius on the phone, tell him to send a doctor,” Kara ordered Eloise, and Eloise took out her phone and placed a call to Darius. It seemed like he did not pick so she called another number.
“Darling,” She said, and I knew it was Raphael.
“Kara and Zora are back. Please tell alpha to send a doctor; Zora isn’t feeling well,” She said, and he said something and hung up.

“Darius is in a meeting, so he said he would send a doctor instead and tell Darius once he is through with the meeting.
“He should tell him now. She needs him,” Kara yelled at Eloise, and, Eloise shook, wondering why the urgency.
She called back and insisted that he tell Darius immediately that it was a serious matter.
“He said okay,” She said, and Kara and Eloise led me to the bathroom and made me get into the bathtub filled with cold
water.
“I will add ice to it now to crash your temperature; the doctor is on the way,” She said, and I nodded.
I could pick up every scent in the room. It was nauseating.
Soon, the doctor arrived, and I was carried to the room and placed on the bed. Darius came immediately and ran to my bedside.
He looked worried and scared.
“What is going on?” he asked, and I could hear the fear in his voice. I wish I could speak, but I was too sick to talk. He kissed my lips, then my cheek and my palm. I heard Cremin growl, and I tried to smile so he would be at peace.
“The doctor just arrived. We hope he will tell us,” Kara said, and Darius looked at me.
“Zora, please stay with me,” he said, and I nodded. So he would know I was still awake and okay, just feverish and
nauseous.

He kissed me on the lips and forehead, and the doctor took some blood samples.
“How long has she been feeling this way?” The doctor asked, and.Kara was too afraid to say how long in the presence of Darius so he would not be pissed, but she had no choice.
“Five days now,” She said, and Darius exclaimed.
“She has been throwing up her food and eating much. She has also been burning up.” Kara said, and the doctor nodded.
“Mood swings?” He asked, and Kara could not answer.
“I will need a sample of her urine for a quick test,” he said, and Darius carried me to the toilet to pee into a cup so it could be used.
He was gentle and handled me with care. I knew he was afraid and was only trying to be strong.
I managed to pee, and he carried me back to bed.
He returned to the toilet to get my urine sample for the doctor.
I noticed the doctor put a strip in the cup and took it out.
He held the strip in his hands and waited, and soon the confusion in his eyes turned into a broad smile.
He looked at Darius and smiled,
“Congratulations, my Lord. Lady Zora is pregnant.”
