Chapter 25
I woke up with a mild abdominal pain which I didn’t pay much attention to as I felt like it was just a normal thing for pregnant women especially in
the second trimester
However, the pain got serious and I was rushed to the hospital the next minute as I couldn’t hold it in anymore
I lay on the bed tiredly after an IV infusion was fixed on my hand,
“How are you feeling now, my lady!” Claudia asked worriedly, sitting beside me on the bed.

“I’m fine.” I managed to smile at her. The pain had almost disappeared, but I was still weak in the body.
“Do you need anything! Are you hungry? Do you want me to go get you something to eat?” She questioned, and at that moment, my stomach grumbled hungrily. It was then I recalled that I hadn’t had lunch yet.
“What should I get for you, my lady?“–
“Fruits, Apple, pineapple, orange, watermelon, strawberry, grapes. Just any fruit you can get your hands on.” I told her, and she looked at me weirdly before nodding her head. That was what I was in the mood to eat at the moment.
“Ring the bell to alert the doctor if you need their attention before the Alpha gets back. I’ll be back.” She told me before leaving.
Enzo went to see the doctor as soon as he arrived at the hospital since he got called from the office that I wasn’t feeling fine.
Barely five minutes after Claudia left, the door opened, revealing Enzo.
“Lyra.. how are you feeling now? Are you alright? Are you feeling any pain?” He asked worriedly as he came to sit beside me on the bed, and I nodded
“I’m sorry you had to go through that all by yourself. He apologised as if it was his fault
“Hmm.” I hummed, regardless.
“The doctor, what did he say?” I asked, curious to know what happened and if the baby was fine. I’ve been worried sick, not about myself but my baby. I didn’t want anything to happen to her.
“He said to wait for him. He’ll be here with the test result in a couple of minutes.” He reached for my hand and held it, and I allowed him to do it as I wanted comfort at the moment.
“You’ll be fine.” He whispered,
Shortly, the doctor came inside with a white paper in his hand.
“How are you feeling now?” The doctor asked me….
“Much better.”
He smiled at me then turned to Enzo and handed him the paper while he took it and started to read through
“Permit me to ask. May I ask about y your sex life? How often do you have sext”
My lacart fluttered and I swallowed a lump, turning my face to Enzo, and our eyes met. It was as if he was seeking the answer from me.
“We do it often.” Lalmost choked on my breath when I heard the big lie from Enzo. The last time we had sex was about eight months ago. Is that what he considers often!
“Your sex life is a bit poor, so you would have to improve as the pain was caused due to the fact that it has been a while since she last had sex.” The doctor explained, and my eyes narrowed. When did lack of sex started affecting pregnancy? I mean, there are tons of women out there who lost their husbands during pregnancy and some whose pregnancy got denied thereby leading them to be alone. How are they coping if this was really a
thing?
“Women’s bodies are different, and this varies based on each woman’s body. This case is rare and only happens to about two percent out of hundred percent pregnant women, and you happen to be amongst the two percent.” He explained to me as if he read my mind, and I slowly
nodded.

“You should have sex more, exercise your body, and have sex again. Emphasis on the sex.” He told us, and I huffed silently.

“Thank you, doc.” Enzo said to the doctor with a sly smile on his face, and I scoffed, I hope he’s not thinking that I’m going to have sex with him?
“I have given her injections to reduce the pain for now. It might come up later again, so you should do the right thing before it comes back.” The doctor further said, and Enzo said it was fine, noting he would do it
“When can I leave the hospital, doc?” The doctor had turned to leave the ward when I called his attention, and he paused, turning to me.

“When am I leaving the hospital?” I really didn’t like staying in the hospital, so I wanted to leave as soon as I could.
He checked his wrist watch briefly before returning his gaze to me again and said. “By evening, you should be able to leave.”
Thank you

The atmosphere became weirdly awkward after the doctor left. I couldn’t even look in Enzo’s direction as I felt uncomfortable
Enzo’s phone started ringing right in time just when I wanted him to give me breathing space. He excused himself to go take the call outside, and much as I was concerned about the call, I was glad he left me to breathe.
Claudia returned shortly with my fruits.
“That was so fast.” I said, struggling to sit up on the bed.
“There is a fruit shop around the hospital. I got them from there.” She replied to me, and I mouthed an ‘oh‘
Claudia helped me peel my oranges while I drank it.
It took me some time before I could finish my fruit, and the doctor came to remove the IV infusion shortly after, I wanted to leave the hospital right away, but he insisted that I waited for another few hours so he could check my vitals, and I just had to agree. At least for the sake of the baby.
By 6pm, I got ready and Enzo drove us home.
