All Chapters of Beauty And The Alpha Don: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Lorenzo's eyelids fluttered open, revealing a familiar room. He looked around, recognizing it as his bedroom. He turned his head and saw Cassie on the other side of the bed, putting clothes into a bag. “Leaving after a one-night stand, babe?” he joked, but his words caught in his throat when he saw the look on her face. Her face lit up when she saw he was awake, and all the worry in her eyes melted away. “You’re awake! I was so worried,” she said, rushing to his side, "you fucking scared me!"She had a wide smile on her face that made Lorenzo’s heart feel warm and full. The feeling was bittersweet, though, because he knew their time together was ending soon. This perfect, little fantasy would soon be over. “This little sting?” He gently touched the bandage on his chest. “It’ll take more than a bullet to kill me, darling.” Cassie smiled, and a feeling of pride filled the room as she spoke. “I handled those vampires after you decided to take a nap.” Lorenzo’s eyebrows went up a lit

"I'm what?" Cassie exclaimed, the two simple words tearing out of her with a ragged gasp. Her eyes, wide like a startled deer's, were filled with a mixture of pure shock and utter disbelief. The news had hit her like a physical blow. Standing across from her, Lorenzo mirrored her stunned expression. Pregnant? The thought ricocheted around his mind. He knew, logically, that this was a possible, even probable, outcome. Over the past few weeks, their passion had often led them to throw caution to the wind, engaging in unprotected sex. While he usually prided himself on his "pull-out game" (a technique he'd always believed to be infallible), he also knew deep down that it wasn't a foolproof method. Even so, he certainly hadn't expected this result, not right now. "Are you certain of it?" Lorenzo managed to ask, his voice a low, almost husky sound. Silvia, the bearer of this life-altering news, simply nodded, a warm, genuine smile gracing her lips. "I... I'll leave you both to talk,"

With a speed that was both shocking and unnatural, Vlad, the vampire, moved. His large, powerful hand shot out, wrapping around Leonardo's throat in an instant. Leonardo didn't have the time to gasp, or time to resist. Vlad's immense strength was immediately apparent as he slammed Leonardo's body with brutal force against the rough, metallic bars of the cage wall. The impact sent a jarring, metallic clang echoing through the confined space. Vlad didn't immediately let go. Instead, he leaned closer, his face inches from Leonardo's, his sharp, predatory senses reaching out. He was searching for any flicker of raw terror, a wet sheen in the eyes, a frantic tremor in the breath, that would signal surrender. Yet, the vampire found nothing. Leonardo’s eyes, though wide with the shock of the assault, held a strange, calm defiance. It was the look of a man who had faced his worst fears long ago and was now mentally prepared for the next wave of torment. He knows what's coming, Vlad reali

"You must be Lana. Alpha Derrick's daughter?" The deep, smooth voice cut through the silence of the room, snapping Lana out of her deep thoughts. Her mind had been miles away, lost in a swirling daydream as she stared out the window at the peaceful garden. Her back was pressed against the solid wood of the door, and she hadn't heard anyone approach. Jolted by the sound, she quickly spun around. Standing before her was the man himself, Lorenzo. Instinctively, Lana dropped into a low, formal bow, her gaze fixed on the floor in a sign of deep respect. "Alpha Lorenzo, it is a truly great honour to be allowed into your presence," she managed to say, her voice quiet but clear. Lorenzo let out a soft, amused sound, a small chuckle. "Alpha?" he questioned, a hint of dry humour in his voice. "I'm no longer the Alpha, remember? I lost that title." He walked further into the room with a calm, deliberate pace, then settled into a chair, crossing one leg casually over the other. Fi

The warm water of the shower cascaded over Cassie, washing down her face and hair. She stood perfectly still, letting the steady stream envelop her, a silent moment of peace where her mind was free to wander. A gentle, knowing smile touched her lips as she instinctively rested one hand on her lower belly. It was a small gesture, yet it held the weight of a monumental secret. "I can't wait to meet you," she whispered softly to herself, the words barely audible over the rush of the water. She began to lightly trace circles over her stomach with her hand. It still felt like a dream, this incredible reality that she was going to be a mother. Logically, she knew it shouldn't be a huge shock after the intensely passionate and unprotected weeks she’d spent with Lorenzo, it was perhaps inevitable. A profound mixture of joy and deep-seated anxiety churned within her. The thought of their child brought a wave of pure, thrilling excitement, yet it was shadowed by a consuming fear for the b
