Lahat ng Kabanata ng Caged Between The Alpha And The Vampire: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

[Tyler’s POV]I sat in the throne room, trying to read the report the warriors in the West had sent to me, acting like everything was okay and pretending to be calm as I waited for Malia to show up. It had been nearly an hour since a guard had been sent to get her, and I was getting extremely anxious since she hadn’t shown up yet.“Malia, I know this would sound annoying, but…” No! No! No! I shouldn’t start that way, I said to myself, practicing how to break the news to her.“Um… there’s something I need to tell you.” No, that sounded terrible. Perhaps, I should be exact and direct instead of speaking like I lacked confidence.I was still in the process of coming up with a suitable way to speak to her when I caught her scent. I quickly composed myself, rested my back and sat up straight on the throne, acting all engrossed with the report book even though I couldn’t comprehend anything that was written there at the moment.I heard her come in and raised my head, then as she met my eyes

[Lucien’s POV] “Eloise!” I screamed from my sleep, and reached my hand out into the air, panting heavily as I sat up. When my eyes opened and I looked around my environment, I expressed relief by exhaling deeply. It had all been just a nightmare. Everything was perfectly fine. I buried my head in my hands, wondering what was wrong with me and why I couldn’t stop thinking about her. Eventually, I climbed out of my bed after getting no meaningful answers and headed downstairs, ignoring the call of Nivera’s blood that pulled at my heartstrings. On getting to the fridge, I took out a bottle of whiskey and on second thoughts, decided to drop it and just took a bottle of chilled water which I gulped down within a few seconds. Again, her blood called to me, but I ignored it and just grabbed a pack of chips and sat on the couch, tuning in just in time to watch an animal documentary series on the television. It was either Nivera had become more clumsy over the past week and had been regular

[Nivera’s POV]My eyes opened slowly to the illumination of the morning sunlight and the chirping of birds. I closed my eyes, then opened it again, trying to remember what had happened to me and why I felt so weak. I looked around as I still laid in the soft bed, and that was when I realised I was in a familiar bedroom. Then, I remembered. It was the bedroom that had been decorated specially just for me in Lucien’s mansion.I blinked my eyes again and again to ensure I wasn’t dreaming or imagining things. If I was waking up, it shouldn’t be here. The last thing I could remember was that I had gotten a note from the Alpha and had left the Palace to meet with him. I racked my brain, and soon, all the memories came running to me.I shivered and sat up, filled with fear and anxiety. I remembered it all, and my skin still felt all the attacks I had suffered in just one night. It seemed again like eight wolves were pouncing at me at once and tearing at my skin. I checked my arms and legs, b

[Tyler’s POV]The elders sat impatiently, sighing every now and then and checking their wristwatches to see how soon twenty-four hours would be up. They had barely touched the crackers and orange juice I had been so generous to ask the maids to serve them and were just waiting for the opportunity to speak their minds about how Nivera should never be the Luna even if she does return later on.“Do you think the guard is going to return?” Elder Jackson asked, breaking the silence.“Of course, he’d return. I’m sure he’d rather die than have his family members pay with their lives instead. The real question is if he’d come back with or without the Omega,” the Gamma responded, admiring the nails she had obviously just gotten fixed.I was surprised that after the last time, she still had the guts to speak, but I didn’t say anything.“Alpha Tyler, you never said what would happen about the Luna position if the Omega fails to return,” Beta Steven said, facing me directly.I took a sip of the j

[Tyler’s POV]I couldn’t begin to think of a suitable word to define my anger, but I was terribly enraged and could kill someone right at that moment without blinking an eye.“What gave you the effrontery to make such a groundless accusation? Have you no fear of me? If not me, what about my authority? Drag them both immediately to the dungeon where they would spend the next three days regretting their actions before they are executed before the Pack members!” I ordered the guards.“Your highness, we are not making a groundless accusation. Just your presence terrifies us and we only love to pay homage and respect to you. Why would we dare interrupt your wedding if all we wanted to do was lie? Please, believe us,” Delilah said.“Guards, take them away! I really do not have any intention to spill blood on such a sacred day,” I thundered angrily.That was when the Gamma, who seemed to be enjoying what was going on, interrupted. “I know you’re upset right now, your highness, but they are
