DAMIAN'S POV
āLuca, Drive straight to Victoriaās homeā I said to my driver immediately I hoped into my car after exiting from the humans filled hospital.
āYes Alphaā He said as he ignited the car and it accelerated.
Scrolling through my phone, I frowned with disgust and anger immediately I saw a post on the rouges blog which was about the election. I canāt help the spark of anger that cursed through me at this particular time to the extent that Alaric, my wolf growled angrily.
āWhat is wrong Alpha?ā Luca asked.
My anger only intensified with this question. āYou donāt ask me silly question!ā
I yelled angrily.
āSā¦sorry Alphaā
I hissed in disgust for what he just said but who cares about his apology now?
On the Rouges blog just now, was Alpha Brianās campaign photo. Brian who was the rougeās enemy now had a fan page on their blog.
Another spark of anger and jealousy rushed through me. We are both contesting for the Alpha King of Regal Pack this was because, Brian and I were the only Alphas who were touched by the moon gooddess. And only an Alpha that was touched by the moon goddess could be the Alpha King.
Brian was my cousin but we never had a good relationship based on the fact that we are both going to compete for the Alpha Kingās position.
Just yesterday at the campaign, the Pack members strongly oppose to have an Alpha without a heir or Luna. Neither of us had a Luna nor a heir but Brian could outshine me in that level because I have known for a long time that my swimmers (Sperm) are weak to fertilize and egg which is why I had to go to the hospital and drop my sample as the doctor advised.
āDonāt answer any calls that came for me, Iām going to be busy througout todayā I said to Luca before adjusting my tie and stepped out of the car.
āYes Alphaā
I am going to take Victoria my girlfriend to the hospital now so they could perform the artificial insemination on her and get it fertilized in 10 days like the doctor said.
If I had slept with her, the sperm wouldnāt get to her egg because they were weak but through artificial insemination, the fertilization process will be fast.
As I stood in the elevator Alaric growled from inside of me, āI am so happy that we are going to have a pup soonā Heās obviously happy.
āDonāt be too happy yet, we can only know if it worked in the next ten days but did you really think she can be pregnant?ā I asked and he growled again.
I chuckled lightly, āI have to use this opportunity to make her my Luna. Brian is ruthless, he will get a Luna pretty soon and have a heir but you know my condition? Victoria is my only hope now no qualms about that so be ready t0 be a father broā
āI canāt wait for this I just pray she agrees to thisā
The elevator clicked opened this time and I walked through the hallway to Victoriaās home. āAlaric you worry too much. You know how crazily she loved me? I will mark her immediately she agree to the inseminationā
Alaric howled with frustration at my determination before giving up.
I pressed the door password and clicked the lock opened.
What surprised me was that she wasnāt there right now to welcome me like she always does. Victoria is my childhood friend, we grew up together and get along well. Our parents wished we could be mates but as life would have it, I never met my mate yet but she met hers and rejected him for the sake of the love she had for me.
Since then I have held her in a special space in my heart. She confessed her love to me last year and since then, things have been going on happily.
āVictoria?ā I called as I removed my shoes and walking into the living room only to meet it deserted. Perhaps sheās in the bathroom was my thought when I noticed the two seater chair filled with clothes. I at first ignored it but something alerted me! Those were men accessories that are not mine. Ranging from Fancy wrist watch, tie, and finally a blue suit that was never mine because I am not used to leaving my things at her place.
āDamian go to the room, I smelt somethingā Alaric alerted me and I rushed towards the bedroom in frenzy.
Moans of pleasure from two familiar voices greeted me as I was about to open the door which was slightly ajar.
āRide faster baby, Iām cummin!ā I heard that familiar voice urged Victoria as she was on top of him naked.
Noā¦.. maybe I was just hallucinating. I grabbed the door handle again to push it open but something in me held me back.
āAlpha Brian are you sure you will mark me after I become pregnant with your child?ā I heard Victoria asked amidst her moans.
BRIAN! She was with Brian! My eyes suddenly become colour blind as I heard this casting the room in a monochromatic shade.
This is too much. Brian of all people?
āTear this bitch apart Damian, she cheated!ā Alaricās voice was cold but I donāt reply him.
"What did you think baby?" Brian's voice sounded with sarcasm. "Are you thinking I might change my mind?"
"No dear, I just want to be sure you know Damian? His foul temper is always so hard to handle so I want to be sure before severing all ties with himā Victoria's voice replied.
"Hahahah, see you sounding like a serious girlfriend. Is Damian a ghost or a warlock? That bastard can never win the election I am sure of that so itās your choice to follow me or notā
Victoria lowered her head and placed a kiss on him before standing up and laying beside him and grabbed his dick in a professional manner. āYou know I can never get enough of this dick? But Damian? That fool always does as if heās the most righteous man on earth he only fucked me once in two yearsā
āhahahahaā Brian laughed hysterically and she joined him too.
My head sparked with anger but I canāt go in there and do anything. I wished to enter and kill the two of them right there but something in me makes me want to let them live and see what will be the outcome of the election.
Bracing myself, I walked out of the house with heavy and sore heart.
āAlpha, thereās a new updateā Luca said as soon as I entered the car but Iām in no mood to hear his jargon so I waved my hand to stop him. āTell me about it laterā
āBut Alpha, itās about the election?ā
I rolled my eyes with exasperation before taking his phone which he offered me. The news shows the Rouges taking down my posters and uploading Brians.
āAlpha, it seems that had known that you donāt have a mate yetā
I canāt say a word. The anger inside of me is more than that I just rested my head on the headrest and closed my eyes.
āWhy are you so down? Is this the time to sulk about that worthless gamma? Get your act together and think of a way forward!ā Alaric scolded but I didnāt say anything either physically or telepatically to reply him.
āDamian!ā He growled but I didnāt say a word.
āWhere are we going to?ā Luca asked after Alaricās growl making me fell suffocated despite the Air conditioner in the car.
āStop asking me questions will you!?ā I canāt help my anger but shout on Luca and Alaric included.
I picked my phone that was ringing through my anger. It was the doctor.
āYes doctor?ā
āMr Moon, shall we find a donor for you or keep your sample in our lab?ā the doctorās words flowed into my ears making me feel more giddy and weak coupled by the scene I saw of Victoria earlier.
I sighed as several thoughts ran in my brain.
āMr Moon are you there?ā the doctorās voice brought me back from my abyssal of disarray.
āKeep my semen there, I will see you in 10 daysā
Those words, The left my lips without any remorse. I am Damian Moon the most respected and feared Alpha in the country, why should I fall down and loose because of a mere betrayal?
GLORIA'S POV We donāt spend very long in the bath.As soon as Iām fed and clean, Sinclair takes me to my nest and lays me out like his own personal feast, and he wastes no time in ravishing me.Iāve never been frightened of Sinclair. Not at his wildest or grouchiest, not even when heās on the warpath against others, or assailing me with the full force of his magic. If anything, itās been an incredible turn on to know that I can call such a powerful man my own, that Iām the sole soft spot in his impenetrable armor.But when he makes love to me now, I feel afraid. Not for myself ā never that ā but for the feral energy I can sense swirling through his body. His wolf is in full control and heās near rabid with desire ā ruthless in his affection. He isnāt gentle, nor would I ask him to be. I love his rough passion and savage intensity: the way he makes me feel as if Iām the only woman in the world and heāll die if he doesnāt have me this instant; the way he drives into me with reckless ab
GLORIA āFour broken ribs.ā The doctor assesses grimly, āand with all the exercise youāve done since the initial brakes, they havenāt been able to set or heal. I have an injection I can give you to fuse the bones quickly, but itās painful, and we still need to set them first.āāWhat about his other injuries?ā Henry inquires anxiously, seated on the other side of me.āIāll do a scan to assess the exact placement of his ribs, and I can extend it to the rest of his abdomen to rule out internal injuries. I donāt see anything else of concern.ā The doctor shares with much more optimism.āHeās got a good size lump on the back of his head.ā I inform the physician, still running my hands through Damianās hair.āThen you two will match.ā V interjects, reminding us all of the way I headbutted his chin in my attempts to reach Damian. āWhen youāre done with him, you ought to check her for a concussion.āāI hardly think thatās necessary.ā I complain, reaching back to see if the area is tender, then
AUTHOR POV As soon as Damian left Luca and Dr Lucy alone, the human turned towards the door, determined to flee. Theyād talked about the mating ceremony for the better part of an hour, but as soon as they finished making their plans, Dr Lucy made a break for it.Before her hand could touch the door knob however, Lucaās voice stopped her in her tracks. āOh so youāre back to ignoring me, are you?āDr Lucy stiffened, turning back to the newly-minted Beta. āYou got my sympathy when your brother was dead, but now that we know Dominic is alive, I donāt see any reason to pretend.ā She answered with a shrug, trying to push away the memory of having the huge wolfās arms around her. Of course, that was much easier said than done ā her mind was already carrying her back to that emotional night, and it was nearly impossible to forget the way her heart had raced when he touched her.Lucaās tears gradually slowed as Dr Lucy held him, breathing in her delicate scent and letting her gentle touch tam
GLORIA'S POV When I wake Iām in my nest, hooked up to about a dozen machines and wracking my brains for some explanation of how I got here. Of course⦠the moment my memory kicks in, I wish it hadnāt. My wolf howls in my head, but I shut out the tumultuous emotions threatening to consume me. It might not be healthy, but if thereās one thing Iām good at ā itās repressing feelings.I clench my eyes shut. āItās not real, itās not real.ā I insist to the empty room, reflexively tracing the outline of my womb. āAre you alright, little one?ā I squeak, wondering if my pain is about to multiply by a million.The baby flutters and sends feelings of sleepy confusion through our bond, and the tightness in my heart eases a bit. Heās okay. I tell my whining wolf, but we both know sheās not just worried for the babyās sake.Theyāre both okay. My wolf assures me, sounding surprisingly confident for all her nervous whimpering. I donāt care what anyone says. We would feel it if he was gone. I would fe
DAMIAN'S POV āWhere are you now?ā Gloria asks, her beautiful face looking up at me from my phone screen.āWeāre headed to the Storm Forest pack, but weāve got quite a few hours on the road before we get there.ā I sigh, wishing we hadnāt needed Gabrielās planes for the refugees, so that we might have flown these long distances.āStorm Forest.ā Gloria murmurs, her eyes lighting up, āDoes that mean youāre going to get to see some trees at last?āChuckling, I turn my phone towards the window, so she can see the rolling salt flats flying by in the distance. āNo, unfortunately they chose their name to honor the ancestral lands they left before coming to the hidden territories. Iām afraid that the only trees here are the ones planted in Gabrielās gardens.āGloriaās face falls, and her lips form an adorable pout, just begging to be kissed. āI donāt know how they can stand it.āāMy poor little forest wolf.ā I purr in sympathy, āour dream forest isnāt enough, is it?āShe shakes her head. āItās
GLORIA'S POV After shopping with Lena and napping away the afternoon with the pups in the nursery, I find my way to Edwardās rooms. The guards told me he just returned from the refugee camp, but when he opens the door for me heās all smiles. I give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek, and he welcomes me in. āYou wouldnāt happen to be in the mood for an afternoon snack, would you?ā He inquires knowingly. āBecause personally Iām starving.āIām fairly certain this is a plot to make sure Iām feeding myself well, but my stomach growls loudly as I find a seat on the couch. Still, I try to sound demure as I shrug, āI could eat.āEdward laughs before calling down to the kitchens and ordering a small feast. As we eat he tells me all about his day at the refugee camp and I, in turn, share my frustration with my sudden celebrity and Lenaās news about Roger. He can only shake his head. āThat boy has made some bad choices in his life, but Iāve been very proud of him these last few months. I never t
