The Lycan Kingpin's Captive: A Baby For The Beastย ย ย Chapter 9 - Mira
The black cotton dress hugs my body tightly, and I admire how it gives the illusion of curves when I have clearly been starved all my life. It has been a week since my positive pregnancy result and Josef has informed me that Alpha Nikolaos would like to see me this evening. My closet has been filled with clothing in all shapes and sizes according to my body type and how it will grow. From evening wear to comfort clothing and fuzzy slippers. The lush robes are a favorite of mine!So, I decided to wear this dress to my meeting with the Alphaโฆnot that I am much to look at, anyway.Dull brown curls, dark brown eyes, and a body showing years of neglect. Thereโs nothing overly special about me, just the fact that I am carrying his child. I am nervous, though, since he wants to speak with me. We havenโt seen each other since the night of my first heat and that mortification still burns hot in my chest. Thank Goddess that wonโt be recurring, though.As soon as I leave here, Iโll be on heat

These massive gunmetal gray forged iron gates always make me roll my eyes - the Elders donโt even try to be covert with their wealth. Scoffing, I think about how this gate alone could finance a small pack for three years.The four old wolves who serve as our pack advisors are supposed to be just that, but theyโve taken it upon themselves to govern us alone. They had my grandfather under their thumb, as well as my father, but I have refused to bend to their will.I think itโs why they donโt like me and Bastien - while I continue to run my pack as I please, Bastien left to establish one in Sin City. Weโre the only Ioannides heirs left, so they can only complain so much.However, their recent barrage of complaints has me worried; A Luna of their choosing or an Heir. Knowing my revulsion of both, they played on it, thinking I would crumble, but I have come here with news. Grinning, I walk into the so-called pack house thatโs actually a mansion and make my way to their conference room. Se

Naked, I stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in my bedroom and look at my reflection. A slight smile tugged at my lips as I observed how much my body has changed since I had first said yes to the Alpha. Though the pale skin, sunken cheeks, and hollowed eyes were still fresh in my memory, the vibrant hue, rosy cheeks, and fuller figure were now undeniable. I canโt help but feel excited at the fact that my belly is showing, too!It has been three months since I first stepped into this cursed place, and I have decided to stop running away from the inevitable. Iโm pregnant, I am going to give birth to a child I wonโt hold or see - I decided this, and I have to see it through.Things have sort of been okay; Iโve learned to stop being terrified of the inevitable. Itโs also helped that I havenโt seen Alpha Nikolaos since our dinner together. Not have I seen the old lady again, but thatโs okay, I guess.Iโve come to enjoy my quiet, and I have my journals so thereโs that. Oh, and Jo

Iโve been curled up in my bed since yesterday, still shocked at the ultimatum Beta Maxim has given me. He knows Iโm running away from Mikhail, he knows what I meant to that bastard, and yet he hasnโt told Alpha Nikolaos a thing.Why is that, I wonder? Why is he keeping this a secret from a man who trusts him so much?Alpha Nikolaos offered me my freedom by giving birth to his heir, now Beta Maxim is giving me another out. The only difference is that the latter feels more like a threat than a way out. If I donโt go with his choice, heโs going to tell the Alpha, then I might get sent back to Mikhail.What am I going to do? I canโt raise a child on my own! Even if I did run away, I wouldnโt get far, anyway. This Alpha is one of the most influential in the country; there would be a bounty on my head for the rest of my life.I need to get out of this room before I drive myself crazy.Jumping from the bed, I grab my coat and run out of the room, startling Josef so much that he falls out of

โWhat did I say about Mia meeting Ariadne?โ I ask with my hands braced on my desk, fury bubbling in my chest but I try to remain calm. I just spotted Mia in the garden with my grandmother, and they looked like they were having a grand old fucking time. โIโm sorry, Alpha, but Kyrรญa Ariadne insisted and I canโt exactlyโฆgo against her word, either. I did say that you would not be happy about this, but she said it would be fine,โ Josef, the incompetent bodyguard says. I cross my arms and pinch the bridge of my nose between my thumb and forefinger. โFucking Ariโฆโ I trail off before opening my eyes. โHow long has this been going on?โ Josef pales. โFor about a week-โ โA fucking week!โ I finally explode, growling. โGods, Josef, why did you not report this to me?!โ He cringes and bows his head. โKyrรญa Ariadne assured me it was okay, Alpha,โ he whimpers.

My heart is sitting in my throat as I watch Alpha Nikolaos walk out of my bathroom. The bedroom door closes, and itโs only then that I lean against the large bathtub and breathe out a sigh.I really thought I was about to be punished when the Alpha walked in here, but instead, I nearly slipped out of the darn bath and landed on my butt. And he caught me - he caught me in those strong arms of his and I nearly swooned. He wasnโt dressed in a suit today, he wore a black t-shirt and jeans. But he still looked as handsome as ever - I swear, thereโs just something about him, about his eyes.When he caught me, his slicked-back hair slipped out of place and fell into his eyes - it felt like a movie moment, especially with the way he looked at me. The second I touched his chest, though, he let go of me as if I was a live wire, then started with his berating again.This man is so mercurial; I could have sworn I saw lust in his eyes. But that would mean he finds me attractive, and I know thatโs

Perhaps I was too harsh on Josef; I should probably speak with him again tomorrow. Heโs not used to this life and it was placed on me to take him under my wing and toughen him up.Heโll never be tough if I constantly berate him; I have to teach him our ways and guide him. As I have said before, thereโs no room for a soft heart in this pack or in the life of a mafioso. If I donโt teach him the right way now, heโll be dead before he turns twenty-four years old.Maxim is sitting in front of me, cradling a glass of whiskey. โWill you be joining your brotherโs auction this year? There are talks of Dragon eggs being on the list,โ he says.โDragon eggs?โ I chuckle and shake my head. โDragons have been extinct for a long time. If he has Dragon eggs, then theyโre either fake or petrified.โโStill, can you imagine owning a fucking Dragon? Youโd be the most powerful Alpha, not only in the country but the fucking world!โ He says, indulging his fantasies again.โHmm, fear is always a good way to f

Thereโs a hand around my neck and I canโt breathe. The more I try to fight them off, the tighter their grip gets - no amount of clawing at the hand stops them and their white Rogue eyes look down at me with glee. โTake your death quietly, Omega whore,โ his voice echoes in my head over and over until I eventually hear a scream.I sit up in bed and pull my covers closer to my chest. My eyes are still adjusting to the light in the bedroom when the scent of Autumn hits meโฆ.thatโs when I realize that I am not in my own room at all. Looking around the room, I swallow deeply and try to remember how I got here. Last night someone attacked me and I was nearly killed, then the Alpha saved me, killed the man who tried to kill me, and then Dr. Lilah and Maxim - Oh, my Goddess! My hand goes to my mouth as I realize Iโm in Alpha Nikolaosโ bedroom. He wanted me here, but for what? Did I do something weird that made him worry about me?

Epilogue Armata / Levi Six months have passed since Calista and I tied the knot, and now itโs time to take her home to my pack. I can sense her nervousness as we drive toward the estate, her hands fidgeting slightly. I reach over, taking her hand in mine, giving it a reassuring squeeze. โDonโt worry, Princess,โ I say, trying to ease her anxiety. โYouโre going to fit right in. Theyโre going to love you.โ She gives me a small, nervous smile. โI hope so, Levi. I just want to make a good impression.โ โWhereโs that kick-ass attitude from when I met you, hmm?โ I tease her with a wink, and she hits my shoulder lightly. โDonโt make fun of me! This is all new to me, okay!โ she says, biting her bottom lip. I sigh. โI know, baby, Iโm just trying to make you smile.โ As we approach the estate gates, I feel a familiar sense of homecoming. I squeeze Calistaโs hand again as we drive through, her grip on my hand tightening slightly. When the car pulls up to the main pack house, my heart swells

CalistaAs Levi and I drive towards the hotel for our mini honeymoon, my mind races with a mix of emotions. Iโm excited, of course, but also undeniably nervous. The idea of whatโs to come, this new chapter with Levi, is both exhilarating and intimidating. Levi, with his rough edges and protective nature, has opened up a part of me I didnโt even know existed. Heโs shown me that beneath the faรงade of the spoilt heiress, thereโs a tenderness, a vulnerability that Iโve never exposed to anyone else.As we pull up to the hotel, itโs like stepping into a dream. The hotel is elegant and understated, its ambiance a perfect reflection of our relationship.Walking into the hotel room, I can feel my heart pounding in my chest. The room is beautiful, a perfect blend of luxury and comfort. The soft lighting and the plush bed seem to beckon us, promising a night of intimacy and connection.Levi pulls me close, his front to my back as his lips brushing against my ear. โAre you okay, Princess?โ he wh

Armata / LeviThe day of our marriage officiation is a mix of nerves and understated excitement. Calista didnโt want anything big, which initially struck me as odd. She just wanted it to be a simple affair, something intimate and personal. In a way, it suits us โ no grand gestures, just a true union of hearts and souls.Standing in the small, elegantly decorated room, a sense of anticipation courses through me. Today, Calista and I are taking a significant step forward, embarking on a journey fraught with challenges but one weโre both fiercely committed to.The door swings open, and Alpha Nikolaos strides in, his presence as commanding as ever. But itโs the man following him that stops me in my tracks โ Liam; my brother, not by blood, but in every way that counts. We havenโt seen each other in months, and his appearance here, now, is both a shock and a profound relief.โLiam!โ I exclaim, my voice a mix of disbelief and joy.โFuck, Levi!โ Liam responds, his voice echoing my own warmth.

CalistaClutching onto Levi as we sit in my fatherโs office, I feel a whirlwind of emotions raging inside me. My heart is still racing from the shock and relief of seeing him return, and the realization of how much Iโve missed him hits me like a tidal wave. I refuse to let go of his hand, needing his grounding presence as we face my father together.โCalista, Levi,โ my father begins, his tone serious, โyou both seem to have reached a decision.โI tighten my grip on Levi, my voice steady despite the tears that had just subsided. โYes, we have. We accept the proposal.โMy fatherโs gaze shifts to Levi, his expression scrutinizing. โLevi, you do understand that this means Calista will be leaving with you to join Alpha Nikolaosโ pack?โLevi meets my gaze for a brief moment, his eyes searching mine for any doubt. Turning back to my father, he replies with a firm resolve, โYes, sir. Weโre aware of what this entails, and weโre prepared for it.โMy father leans back in his chair, his eyes neve

Armata / LiamRiding back towards the mansion, the steady roar of the bike beneath me is the only thing keeping my racing thoughts at bay. These past two weeks without Calista have been a relentless hell. Every day felt longer than the last, each moment stretching into an agonizing eternity. Being away from her didnโt just bring clarity; it fucking intensified everything I felt for her โ every longing, every goddamn unspoken word.I replay our moments together in my head, over and over. Every laugh, every intense stare, every godforsaken time she looked at me and didnโt even realize how much she affected me. Being away from her wasnโt just about missing her physically โ though I ached for that too โ it was the profound, gut-wrenching yearning for the connection we have. The way she challenges me, pushes me, fucking complements everything I am..Every night away was a goddamn battle against the urge to just say โfuck itโ and come back to her.

I want to be with him, not because of any arrangement or obligation, but because of how I truly feel.As I get ready for the day, I canโt help but feel a flutter of excitement at the thought of seeing Levi, of telling him my decision. I wonder how heโll react, whether heโll share my feelings, whether this could be the start of something beautiful and real between us.Heading down to breakfast, I expect to see Levi waiting for me, as has become our routine. But instead, I find Marcus, one of Leviโs men, standing by the door.โGood morning, Marcus. Whereโs Levi?โ I ask, trying to hide my disappointment.Marcus seems a bit uncomfortable, shifting on his feet. โGood morning, Miss Calista. Iโm not sure where Levi is.

But I know she needs this space, this time to think and decide for herself.I stand there for a moment longer, lost in thought. The simplicity and honesty of our interaction in our wolf forms, itโs a stark contrast to the complexities of our human lives. Out here, in the wild, things are clear, primal. But back there, in the world of duties and expectations, everything is muddled.Turning away from the path she took, I take a deep breath, trying to clear my head. I need to think, to plan. Whatever Calista decides about us, about her fatherโs proposal, it will change things. And I need to be ready for that.I take out my phone, contemplating calling Liam again. Heโs been a grounding presence in the chaos of my emotions. But I decide against it. This is something I need to work through on my own.As I walk ba

In need of clarity and space to think, I find myself drawn to the edge of the forest, where the natural world always seems to offer solace.I stop at a secluded spot, away from prying eyes. The transformation is something that always brings me a sense of power and freedom. I close my eyes, feeling the familiar tingling sensation as my body begins to change. My bones shift and reform, my senses heighten, and my skin gives way to a thick, white fur. The transformation is swift, a fluid transition from human to wolf.As my white wolf form takes over, I feel a release from the human complexities that have been burdening me. I take a deep breath, the scents of the forest filling my nostrils, and I begin to run.The ground feels different under my paws, more alive, as I dart through the trees.

Needing a moment to myself, I head outside to patrol, a routine that offers a semblance of normalcy amid the chaos.Standing under the open sky, I pull out my phone, my thumb hovering over a contact I havenโt reached out to in a long time.The one person who might understand the turmoil Iโm feeling. I hesitate, my mind racing with doubts. We havenโt spoken much since... everything happened. I know I shouldnโt bother him, but right now, heโs the only one who might understand.Finally, I dial his number, the familiar ringing echoing in the silent night.
