Caged Between The Alpha And The Vampire Chapter Forty-nine
[Malia’s POV]Slowly, my eyes opened and I woke up to see the Alpha King staring at me with wide eyes, and I spotted his lips grow into a smile the moment he saw I was awake.I forced a smile at him, shifting uneasily in the bed I could tell wasn’t mine, and as my eyes darted all over, it was clear that I was in the infirmary and that was when I remembered suddenly being overcome by extreme dizziness and I could recall collapsing as a result of it.“You’re awake, my Luna,” the Alpha said, squeezing my hands warmly.Although weak, I managed to sit up and he helped me out, then tucked away a strand of shiny auburn hair from my face.“I’m sorry to have caused you so much worry, Tee. Tell me, how long was I out?” I asked.“Just a few hours, but it’s all good. The worry you caused me only lasted for a few minutes and it has been replaced with great news,” he said, with more excitement than he had possessed in the last couple of years.“What do you mean?” I inquired, filled with curiosity.

[Nivera’s POV]“What did you just say?” I asked in shock after Celeste broke the news to me.“You heard me, child. You’re pregnant. I wasn’t too sure before, but I have confirmed it after feeling your pulse,” she explained, flashing me a sympathetic look.I shook my head slowly. “No, that can’t be true. Lucien can’t get me pregnant… and… and if I am truly pregnant,… it means…” my voice broke as tears flowed down my eyes in torrents.I had always envisioned getting pregnant and spending forever with the man I loved. Together, we would have a perfectly happy family life, and never in my life had I once wished for it to play out this way. I couldn’t be pregnant.. not like this, just not this way.“Does… does Lucien know about this?” I asked.The expression on her face told me he already knew, even before she said the words: “Yes, he knows.”I swallowed hard and buried my face in my hands, sobbing really hard. “No wonder he has been acting strange and being all distant from me in the last

[Lucien’s POV]I had thought about it again and again, and although I was sure that our lives would never remain the same if Nivera should have the child, I also somehow knew that it would be worse if she never had the child.There I was, sitting in the park, and just then, a boy of around seven years old ran up to me smiling, exposing his missing front teeth and he handed over to me a loose kite.I stared down at it, wondering why he had decided to approach me of all people. I never had a smile on my face and no one ever spoke to me first and avoided me as much as possible. I knew what he wanted and not saying a word, I helped him out with the kite so he could fly it properly then handed it back to him.“Thank you,” he said, then turned around and left.I stood up from the bench and walked to leave the park, not knowing why I had come there to think of all places, knowing fully well that there would be a lot of people around since it was a sunny Saturday, which was also the day Niver

Months later [Malia’s POV]The sound of the baby’s cry hit my ears, and even through the overpowering pain I felt after being in labour for thirty-six hours, a great smile found its way to my lips. It was as though my intestines had been ripped apart and I had never felt as weak as I felt presently, but I was fulfilled.It was worth it. All the pain I had endured had been worth it eventually.The Moon Goddess didn’t fail me. She had looked down on me with a smile, and although there had been times when I had wanted to give up and just heed to the call of death, I was happy I had persevered. My baby was worth it all.“Can… can I see him?” I asked weakly, as I tried my best to keep my eyes open… just to have a glimpse of my baby, just to behold its magnificence.“‘Her’, your majesty. You delivered a bouncing baby girl,” the midwife said.“What?” I asked, filled with shock, and the sleep that had been deeply rooted in my eyes disappeared almost immediately. “I… I had a daughter, not a s

Five years later[Nivera’s POV]“Luca, where are you now?” I asked, careful not to shout in order not to disturb the people around.I reasoned he was probably playing hide-and-seek again with me, but without telling me, and I had agreed with Lucien to not make use of my abilities to find him anytime something like that happened. We were trying to be normal people, after all.“I’m sorry, have you seen my son? He has curly brown hair and eyes with chubby cheeks,” I said to an old lady who was struggling with pulling her overloaded trolley.“Do you know how many people’s kids match that description? Please, be on your way and don’t bother me,” she said, dismissively.“Well, I tried my best, Lucien,” I said in a whisper, then sniffed the air to catch Luca’s scent, and as soon as I caught a whiff of it, I immediately followed the scent.From the looks of it, he was where they sold ice-cream at the mall. I definitely should have looked over there first. He had a great love for ice-cream whi

[Tyler’s POV]I yelled angrily, forcing myself to not lay hands on her, but rather struck my fists against the sculpture of one of my ancestors in the throne room and it scattered into many different pieces.The maid, Tami, moved backwards, looking up at me with dreadful terror as tears began to roll down her cheeks. She fell to her knees, clasping her hands tightly and begging me for mercy. “I… I am sorry,” she said.“Sorry? That’s all you have to say? You’re sorry? Tell me, who is your Alpha? Who is your Lord? Who has power over you?” I yelled at her.“You… only you, Alpha Tyler,” she said, sobbing really hard as tears kept on rolling down her cheeks in torrents.“It’s my fault, Alpha King Tyler. Please, let her be and punish me instead,” Malia said, and she immediately kept quiet as I flashed her a cold glare.She looked down at her feet, bending one toe over the other, appearing to be afraid.“Of course, you deserve to be punished and I will see later to that.

[Tyler’s POV]It was a small thatched cottage which appeared to have seen many years. The carriage ride to this cottage, while following the instructions on the map had been so long, but since I had already begun the journey, I couldn’t turn back. I just hoped that all the troubles were worth it in the end, and that I finally got a solution to restore my Pack to its former glory.I knocked twice on the door, but there was no answer. Apart from the rustling of trees, there was no other sound coming from around the environment or even from the house. The cottage was in a quiet area, and I suspected that it was either I had lost my way or there was no one at home; preferably the latter.I looked around, and not seeing anyone, I tried opening the old wooden door whose paint was washed off with holes in it. As expected, the door was opened and it made a creaky sound as I opened it wider and stepped inside what was the darkest room I had ever laid my eyes on.“Hello, is anyone here?” I call

[Lucien’s POV]I was stroking Luca’s hair as we watched an episode of his favourite cartoon while Nivera made Mac and cheese in the kitchen. All of a sudden, I began to perceive smoke; like something was burning.“Babe, are you on the phone? Check on the food. I think it’s getting burnt,” I yelled from the living room.“The food is all right, but I can also perceive…”“Lucien! Nivera! Help!” It was Ryle’s voice and it came up from his bedroom upstairs. Luca and I exchanged glances and Nivera dashed out of the kitchen, looking as confused as I was.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“I don’t know, but let’s find out,” I said, then told Luca to keep on watching the cartoon while his mum and I went upstairs to see what was going on.The door to Ryle’s room was wide open and the smell of smoke grew even stronger. Words cannot explain the horrid sight I met once we both stepped in, which registered a kind of shock in my brain, and I knew instantly that I would never get over the painful look on Ce

[Nivera’s POV]Six months had passed since Tyler had died and our lives had taken a turn for the best. I no longer had nightmares because I knew he was never coming back, and I got to spend the rest of eternity with the only man that had ever shown me love, even when I didn’t deserve it.“You’re deserving of much more than my love,” Lucien said, planting a kiss on my lips as he rested his head on my thighs, as though he could read my thoughts.I smiled, running my fingers through his hair, as my eyes scanned the beach, wondering where the kids were.“Mum, dad, look what we found!” Luca and Lucille chorused, running towards us with their hands full of shells.Lucien sat up, and we both stared at Lucille in disbelief.“Mum? Dad?” Lucien asked, surprised, even though I nudged him not to say anything.She fiddled with her fingers nervously. “Is… is it okay if I call you guys that?” she asked, wide-eyed.“Of course, we’re your parents after all. We’re just… we’re just shocked becauseit’s

[Lucien’s POV]There was fury evident in my eyes, and even the ever-so courageous Tyler knew he was about to taste my wrath, as I charged towards him with my claws out and fangs bared, ready to tear him limb from limb before my rage could reignite.“Stay away from me,” Tyler barked, and nodded at his people who had been staring the whole time to come to his rescue.“For Alpha Tyler,” his most trusted warrior yelled, but the people looked away.“How many have died? How many more will die? We just managed to start getting our lives back together, but for some reason, our very own dear Alpha wants us to risk our lives for him. Hell no! I have children and I must stay alive to protect them,” the Gamma stated.The crowd murmured in agreement with her statement.“Once I get out of this, each one of you would die in the most painful manner, I promise you that!” Tyler raged.Elder Gaius laughed. “That won’t be possible. Thanks to the witch, Jocelyn, we now have our separate lives and identiti

[Lucien’s POV]It had always bothered me… how people asked who my son bore resemblance to even when Nivera and I walked down the streets together, but the fact that Luca wasn’t biologically my son hadn’t hurt me like the way it did today. It hurt worse to see the smirk on Tyler’s face and he seemed extremely excited. Why wouldn’t he? No matter what I do, he’ll always be Luca’s father.“Careful now, do you think Luca here would forgive you for getting rid of his true father?” I heard Jocelyn’s voice ask, and I looked up to see her holding Luca tightly by his hand.Instantly, I became numb and stopped dealing Tyler with blows, as I staggered towards where he was and ran my hands all over him to make sure he was okay.“What are you doing here, big guy? Are you fine?” I asked him.“Yeah. Mummy followed after you when you left and some ladies came to forcefully take Uncle Ryle and myself,” he explained.Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me, and before I could turn around, I was injected w

[Tyler’s POV]It was an open arena, just within the estate. I paced around in full-blown panic. I didn’t mean to, but somehow, I was afraid. The vampire had been the first person to ever win me in a fight, and till date, I could never forget about how he had mercilessly tortured me and had only let me go because of Nivera.A whiff of her scent caught my nose, and I turned around. Malia was standing right behind me, wearing a flowing red dress, with a worried look written on her face.“Greetings, Alpha Tyler,” she said, with a small bow.“What do you want?” I retorted in a low growl.“I just… I just wanted to wish you good luck,” she said.“You’ve done that now. You may go,” I told her.She didn’t leave, but just kept staring at me. “Must you engage in this fight? It’s been several years and we just started having peace. Can’t you just not fight the vampire?” she asked.I knew it came from a place of concern, but I was infuriated by her words. “Why? Do you also think that I won’t be ab

[Lucien’s POV]I just got off the phone with one of the surgeons and was informed that the date of Celeste’s surgery had been fixed and all the preparations to ensure the surgery was successful had been put in place.A smile spread across my lips as I skipped up the stairs and knocked on her door gently, waiting for her to usher me in. I could perceive that she and Ryle were inside, and unless they were making out or something, they should have answered and opened the door already.“Hello, I know you’re in there. Can I come in?” I asked.What seemed like ages passed, and there was still no response, so I simply just opened the door and walked in.To my surprise, Celeste laid on the bed, looking like a completely different person. No, it wasn’t just the ugly third degree burn scars that still looked hideous despite all the treatments she had undergone, including steadily taking her potions. She looked older, and wrinkles were slowly starting to show on her face, particularly on her for

[Tyler’s POV]“How is my precious Carl Washington doing today?” Jocelyn asked as she stepped into the study room. I had been expecting her presence after seeing the terrestrial ball she called a portal dancing next to the door.I shrugged. “I’ll never get used to that name,” I said.“It’s okay. I can just call you Tyler if you’re more comfortable with that. It’s not like the authorities are always present to monitor everything we have to say,” she explained, then sat down on a stool beside me and eyed the map I had been working on.A month ago, all the documents had been processed and finalised, and I had been able to move to New Orleans with my family, as well as the other members of the Crescent Pack who had also acquired new identities.The estate I had been able to acquire was more than enough to house the remaining members of our Pack, and slowly, we had been adapting to the human way of life and maintaining our territory.In the near future, we were going to transform more human

[Nivera’s POV]“Let me fucking go. Do you even know who I am and what I can do? I’m a fucking hybrid, you psychopath,” I said, as the stranger with the familiar hand grabbed my arms and forced me to go with him.“Oh, shut up. You’re nothing without that useless vampire, and guess what? He’s no more. I’ve gotten rid of him, and you’re mine now,” he said.“Bold of you to assume that you can easily get rid of Lucien O’Hara. And I don’t belong to you. I am no one’s property,” I said to him.He pushed me to the ground, making me fall to my knees, so that I now knelt before him, after which he began to drag me by the hair and kick me for no reason. I didn’t know why, but at that point, I was unable to make use of any of my hybrid abilities despite how hard I tried to.“What did you do to me? Why am I so weak? Why can’t I use my abilities?” I asked, trying to break free from whatever was holding me back.Even in the dim light, I could see a smirk appear on his face. “You should stop trying s

[Tyler’s POV]Meeting with the witch, Celeste, had made me understand how I could save the lives of the people I had left. If the other werewolf communities could find a way to go through my Palace gates, it meant that we were not safe even in the Palace that was expected to be a safe haven.When she spoke about Lucien, the vampire whose face still haunted me in my dreams from time-to-time, I remembered the world I had gone to when I was in search of Nivera. It was a whole different world, beyond the knowledge of any of my werewolf counterparts, and it got me thinking. If I could get my people to that world, they would be safe.Since it appeared that they were mostly humans, nothing was stopping us from migrating there and pretending to be one of them, while we were werewolves in secret. I had no idea on how to go about it, but it seemed to be the only way out for all of us.I couldn’t just let the Crescent Pack go extinct like that. I needed to do something, anything at all, to save
