CHAPTER 8: UNANSWERED QUESTION

last update Last Updated: 2023-08-09 21:24:40

**ALEXANDER'S POV**

The sun was setting, bringing an end to another day filled with unanswered questions about Natasha and her true identity. It was driving me insane.

She had managed to infiltrate every corner of my mind, to the point where I couldn't think or breathe without her face appearing in my thoughts. I desperately wanted to uncover the truth about her, but she remained tight-lipped. The last time I spoke to her, she had been hysterical. Judging from her reactions, I knew I was right. She was running from something, or rather, someone.

The first thing I needed to do was to call Lord Cyrus and inform him that his supposedly impenetrable boundary had been breached by wolves, and that I had seen them today as well.

I didn't know why they were here or where they were from, but their behavior convinced me that they were searching for something, or someone. Their eyes were fixated on my territory, confirming my suspicion that they were after Natasha. I had no idea what they want

    **NATASHA'S POV**I slowly opened my eyes and returned from the dream world to reality. The medication Desmond had given me was wearing off, and I was beginning to regain consciousness. It took a moment for my vision to focus. I saw someone standing by my bed, but the sleep in my eyes made my vision unclear. At first, I thought it was Desmond, but as my vision cleared, I noticed that it wasn't him as the person standing behind me was taller. When my vision finally cleared, I confirmed that it wasn't Desmond.I immediately stood up in fear as I realized it was Jorge standing beside me. I quickly turned to the heart monitor and noticed that he had switched off the machines so that Desmond wouldn't hear my panicked heart. "Did you sleep well, my angel?" he sneered at me."What are you doing here? Desmond said that this wing of the center is for trusted personnel only," I replied, panicking in fear. He laughed darkly at my expense. He was looking at me like I was his prey, ready to devo

    **NATASHA'S POV**Lord Alexander left my room after agreeing to the arrangement made by Desmond for me to move into his house. I tried to protest, but they didn't give me an option. They both agreed that it would be a safe place for me. My wolf was really happy about this, but I was against the whole deal. Being close to Lord Alexander will make it harder for me to fight the mate pull and complicate things further."I'm sure Jorge won't come back a third time after the severe warning Lord Alexander gave him, and I don't need to move in with Lord Alexander," I tried to convince Desmond to let me stay in the healing center, but he wasn't having it. "Natasha, we are doing this for your safety," I Sighed. "But why Lord Alexander's house? Isn't there another house I could go to, like a safe house or even your house? I promise to be a good housemate. I'm low maintenance, and you wouldn't even notice I was there."Desmond shook his head. "I'm sorry, I can't let you stay in my house because

    ***JORGE'S POV***Jorge, come to my office immediately," Lord Alexander's voice echoed in my mind through the mind link. "Okay," I muttered to myself as I moved away from my desk. Lord Alexander was going to unleash his anger on me because of what I did to Natasha at the Healing Centre. Well, I had been waiting for that. I walked through the hall towards Lord Alexander's office. The guards moved aside as I passed through the hall. I could feel their stares and hear their whispers. I was a leader who was feared and not loved by the kingdom. Every vampire respected me because of that. Many vampire leaders would wish to have the love of their people, but not me. I wanted everyone to fear and respect me. I didn't want love because love is for the weak and it is pointless. Every powerful and sensible vampire would want his people to fear him and not love him because fear brings obedience, and obedience means an efficient and effective kingdom. My stupid Lord, on the other hand, disag

I needed to get out of my house.My Vampire was too close to the surface and I was barely holding on. My Vampire wanted Natasha badly, and if I'm being honest, I wanted her too. I truly love her and want her.No matter how hard I try to fight my feelings for Natasha, I find myself still falling for her. In fact, the more I try to remove her from my mind, the more I find myself drawn to her.Tonight is the first night I acknowledge that we are mates, and it feels good. I have always wanted to say it to her, and I am very happy that I have finally expressed it.A week ago, I was so certain of my choices, and now my head is all over the place. I am torn between a rock and a hard place.On one hand, there is a woman who makes complete sense as a mate. She is the daughter of a lord, and marrying her would bring me many

    **NATASHA'S POV**I made sure to stay in the shadows, with my hair tied up in a bun and covered by a black cap. It blended into the darkness, and my all-black attire made it easier for me to blend into the night as well. Years of being on the run had taught me to be quiet, sneaky, and agile.When I arrived at the main center of Lord Alexander's kingdom, where there was a huge house that I assumed was the palace, I froze. There was a patrol of vampires moving around the house. Many of the lights were off, as it was still early in the morning.Using my keen wolf eyes, I was able to see even in the darkness. I looked around and saw that there were many vampires. I counted the ones I could see; there were ten of them. Thankfully, there was enough darkness to cover me, and all I needed to do was remain silent and move cautiously. I noticed that the patrol worked in a sequence. If I moved when they did and stuck to the shadows, I knew I would be able to get past them.The first vampire move

    **NATASHA'S POV**The rain fell heavily as I trudged through the wet forest floor, occasionally kicking up mud. My lungs struggled to fill with oxygen, but I persevered through the pain Above me, thunder roared and lightning momentarily illuminated the surroundings. So far, I hadn't come across any border patrol wolves, but I knew there had to be at least two or three out here. Alexander was a cautious man and would never leave his territory unprotected. I just needed to keep moving through the shadows and cross over into the next territory to figure things out."Don't leave," my inner voice battled with me at every turn. I tried to ignore it, but it was my own voice that I couldn't escape. It was a constant battle between my head and my heart. I wanted to stay, but I knew I needed to leave. I tried to focus on the positive outcomes it would bring. I would be free again and have the right to do as I pleased. I could go wherever I wanted and eat whatever I desired without anyone dict

    **NATASHA'S POV**Although I had healed, my wolf was in no condition to battle with four adult white wolves. Not only was I outnumbered, but I was also outmatched. I should have run, but my body felt frozen in place. My limbs were locked to my sides and my eyes were wide, staring at my impending death. Was this how I was meant to die? I should have listened to my wolf and stayed back at Lord Alexander's kingdom, but I didn't listen and now I've put myself and my wolf in big trouble.For More than two years, I had been running. I had dodged death on multiple occasions. But now, it seemed the reaper had finally come to collect. I just never thought it would be like this."My mom told me to run," I thought to myself as tears rolled down my cheek. "She told me to run and never look back, but I didn't listen to her. Now I'm paying the price for not listening to her last words."The biggest wolf stepped forward, surely the the leader of the Evil Omegas, Damien's warriors. It prepared to pou

    **NATASHA'S POV**The air around us was silent. Lord Alexander was still in vampire form, looking in the direction where the wolves were running to. From the way he was looking, I could tell he knew the Lord of the next kingdom. At this moment, I felt relieved as adrenaline began to leave my body.It was still raining, but the rain had become lighter. The thunder had calmed and there was no more lightning. I used my hands to wipe away the mud that splashed on my face. I didn't dare move towards Lord Alexander as I knew his vampire was still in control of his mind. Instead, I moved to where my bag was lying on the ground and shouldered it. When I turned around, I saw a now-human Alexander who was also naked. I shrieked and turned around, my cheeks heating at the sight of him.I felt an urge to turn and look at him again as the first glance wasn't enough. I knew it was my wolf trying to make me look around, but I resisted. "But he is your mate," my internal voice said, trying to convin

    **NATASHA'S POV**I returned to Lord Alexander's room after collecting the wine that Cynthia had ordered. I had been tempted to run back to Lord Alexander's house, but then I realized that I would run into his mother and Cynthia's parents, who didn't seem pleased with my presence. So, it was either braving the storm from Queen Saraphina or braving the storm from Cynthia. Whichever choice I made, it was still uncomfortable for me. Cynthia seemed like the lesser of the two evils, but I had been wrong.I was about to open the door to Lord Alexander's room when I noticed Desmond walking in my direction. When he saw me, he smiled at first, but when he saw the chilled bottle of red wine in my hand with a glass cup, his smile quickly faded. He scowled at the glass and then looked at me."There is some wine in Lord Alexander's room. You should have just taken one of those bottles from the big fridge.""I know, but it's actually not for me. It's Cynthia's. She sent me to go and get her a bottl

    **NATASHA'S POV**We walked through the healing center and headed towards the lord's wing. As we passed by, the nurses and other staff greeted Desmond and some even bowed their heads. This was strange, considering he wasn't ranked higher as a Vampire. He may have been the head Healer, but that didn't give him any real ranking in the vampire kingdom. Technically, he was just a Healer and nothing else."Why do some of them bow to you?" I asked.He shrugged. "Some still believe that I should be second-in-command and not Jorge. Vampires in my bloodline have been second-in-command for decades. I was the first to break that chain. A lot of them believe that Jorge should not be Alexander's second-in-command and they believe I am the one fit for that. They don't agree with Lord Alexander's choice of second-in-command.""Do you?"He glanced at me. "It doesn't matter what I do or don't agree with. It's Lord Alexander's kingdom and he is my best friend. I support whatever decision he makes.""I

    **NATASHA'S POV**I was still bothered by Zoe's words. She was right; as the true first lady, I was meant to be one of the leaders of this kingdom.I never thought in my entire life that my mate would have been a Vampire lord. Since the war that occurred between the three factions years ago, it was rare for the Moon Goddess to mate a Vampire and a wolf or a human as there is no longer peace in our world.Even if there is a situation where mates come from different factions, they end up rejecting each other. So there is absolutely no way that Lord Alexander would mate me, Natasha. Maybe the Moon Goddess made a mistake because, on paper, Cynthia was exactly what Lord Alexander needed. I came with too much baggage to be the first lady of the White Vampires. I wasn't raised to be a Vampire leader like her. I was raised by two omega wolves who know absolutely nothing about leading a pack, let alone a kingdom.The little experience I had in ruling was from my late husband, who was an Alpha

    **NATASHA'S POV**Zoe brought some boxes to help me pack all the clothes in the drawer and wardrobe. I wasn't sure if I was allowed to take them since they were already there before I entered the room, but Zoe assured me that all the clothes are mine because Lord Alexander bought them for me. We had been packing in silence for the past half an hour. Zoe occasionally glanced at me, but didn't say anything. Her stares were unsettling, especially given the current tense atmosphere. When I couldn't take it anymore, I dropped the pile of shirts I was packing and stared at her. "What is it, Zoe? You keep looking at me as if I've turned into a wolf or something. It's unnerving and only adding to my stress, not relieving it.""I'm sorry," she squeaked and then busied herself with packing the shoes from the shoe bag into the boxes.Instantly, I felt guilty. Zoe was a low-ranked Vampire who had suffered a lot at the hands of higher-ranked Vampires like Jorge. Judging from the healed wounds on

    **NATASHA'S POV**If I had only that little time, then I needed to spend it as close to him as possible, not stuck in this room away from him. The rain calmed, and now it was just a gentle drizzle. The night had not gone according to plan at all.If everything had gone as planned, I would have been far out of this territory and on my way to finding a new place to start a new life. I would have been miles away from Lord Alexander, which I know my wolf won't be happy with. My place was by his side as his first lady, as the Moon Goddess has planned for us, but the problem is that I had been fighting against the bond. There were still so many things up in the air for me. One such thing was Damien; he was out there somewhere, looking for me and hunting me for some unknown reason.But tonight has shown me one important thing. It has shown me that the safest place for me now is the Kingdom of the White Vampires. They are called White Vampires because of their fair skin. Damien is an evil w

    **ALEXANDER'S POV**I had only met Cynthia once in my life before now. We met at a ball that took place years ago. I was often told that her beauty was like none anyone had ever seen before, but I had to disagree. If I saw Cynthia two weeks ago, I would have easily said she was the most stunning woman I had ever laid my eyes on. But then I met Natasha, my enchantress."Oh, thank the Moon Goddess, you're awake. I was so worried, Alexander. We came as soon as we heard about the incident," she said as she brought our connected hands to her heart.I pulled my hands out of her hold, not feeling comfortable at all. I didn't like her touch and certainly didn't want my hands anywhere near her chest."Cynthia, what are you doing here?" I said with a frowned face.Her eyes narrowed. "Really? That's how you greet your wife? After I traveled a long distance to see you?"I sighed, massaging my temples. "I'm sorry, Cynthia, I'm just not myself right now.""Oh, my love, I know," she said with a smi

    **ALEXANDER'S POV**The smell of antiseptic wafted into my nose first, followed by a pinch in my elbow. My vision was dark, but I could make out a faint hint of light from above. I groaned as I tried to block it out."Alexander," a distant voice called to me.There were only a few people in the kingdom who called me by my name without any title: Desmond, my parents, and Jorge. Although Jorge preferred to call me Lord Alexander, him addressing me without the title wouldn't be offensive or disrespectful. At this, I knew that the person calling me must be between the four people I mentioned."Alexander," the voice called again.All I wanted was to sleep. Why couldn't they let me?"Alexander," the voice called for a third time, now sounding closer and clearer.It was Desmond.What was he doing in my Royal Bedroom?Beneath the antiseptic smell that hit my nose earlier, there was another scent. It was the scent I had grown addicted to in the last few days.Natasha.She had been here. She ha

    **NATASHA'S POV**We burst through the door, carrying Lord Alexander on a stretcher. I followed closely behind. Desmond had to perform CPR because Lord Alexander's heart had stopped beating. He was completely surrounded by healers who were shouting out orders to one another as they worked on their lord.I felt a knot in my stomach as I watched them work. They were hanging various bags of liquid and injecting him with different substances that I couldn't identify. They were yelling out different stats for his vital signs that I couldn't catch.Despite the chaos, I still held Lord Alexander's hand, refusing to let go. Guilt washed over me as I contemplated whether I was somehow the cause of his problems. His eyes were closed, and those vibrant, bloodshot eyes that had taken my breath away from the moment I saw them were hidden from me.The healers moved around me, taking various blood samples and scanning his body for injuries. Desmond came up beside me and turned Lord Alexander onto hi
