The Vestibule
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It was well past dark and there were only a few customers in Rugor’s place. Dominic hadn’t wanted to take the girl all the way to that place but Valencia had opined that it was the farthest from human activity and probably would make Jenny feel better.
Thus, Dominic had brought a car because Jenny had been too weak to transform into her wolf again. Thus, the three found themselves huddled at a far corner table of the diner.
Rugor, the ever-enthusiastic owner of the shabby place was more than excited to see the archon again. After the incident of last time, he had feared that they would never return again. However, seeing both her and alpha Castro made him feel happy.
Determined to make up for the goof-up of last time, he made all the other customers leave and ensured that nobody except him would serve them.
Jenny was eating heartily while Valencia and Dominic just watched her, trying to find a good opening to talk to each other. They could hav

Dominic turned around and asked her in a sharp intake of breath, “What?” His question made Valencia look at him in surprise. Jenny almost tried to fuse with the wall behind her and it was Valencia who patted her hand again to let her know that it was fine. Jenny shook her head, “Sorry, I’ve been jumpy lately.” Dominic neared the table and began hearing her intently. The cogs in his mind were working overtime. He tried to smile at her, “I’m sorry, but that name sounds familiar to me.” The girl just shrugged her shoulders, “Yeah, I never knew about it but it was the opioid chamber of the backstreets, well unofficial one. I never knew it myself until one day when I read something about it in the newspaper.” Valencia raised her eyebrows, “So…your boyfriend was doing drugs and told you that he had received some scholarship?” “Yeah. I should have been worried the first time he received such a massive amount of money. I blindly believed him.”
The Undead Alpha Answer me
“Sorry?” Dominic wasn’t sure if he had heard her right. “I think I was clear enough the first time,” Valencia replied pointedly. Dominic just shrugged and spoke off-handedly, “Heard that in a movie. I used it correctly, didn't I? I made the poor girl feel okay and that’s what matters. But, coming to the main point, I really want to know what you made of this.” The archon was looking outside the window and had a faraway look in her eyes. Somehow her gut feeling told her that Dominic had skirted the question but she didn't bore him down. He was correct, they had enough on their plate already. As such she tied her hair that was escaping her ponytail before beginning to speak, “I think somehow that this man she kept talking about is more mysterious than it seems. We may need to visit the Vestibule and get a good look at him for ourselves.” Dominic nodded his head, “Yes, but what about Danny? He is a rogue too, we cannot let him roam
The Undead Alpha The traitor
Valencia had heard his words so she looked at him and asked, “What is the problem?” The alpha took one good look at the photo again but said nothing. He had to ensure that what he felt was correct before he blurted unnecessary things in front of his archon. Though she was her friend, there was a limit up to which she would tolerate him. Thus, he only shook his head and said offhandedly, “I just remembered something about Mark that I hadn’t told you earlier.” Valencia had begun to feel the need to sleep but hearing Mark’s name swept off all the drowsiness from her eyes. “What about him?” she asked pointedly. Now that he had spoken about Mark, he had to say something to make her believe that it had been the very topic he had wanted to talk about. Scratching the back of his head, he asked, “Did I tell you that Brandon had been asked to steal my watch and implicate me?” The archon shrugged her shoulders, “Maybe.”
The Undead Alpha Facing the truth
The archon let it slide. She was in no mood to fight with him, not with the growing issues they had at hand. Dominic cleared his throat and spoke, “I already told Bob to keep an eye on the Vestibule and keep us informed on what goes on there. But, I do agree that we should go and visit on our own.” The archon rubbed her hands in excitement, “Now, you are talking” Her eyes twinkled with excitement as she devised all the things she could do that mainly included ripping apart some throats and taking the whole damn place down. Dominic took the hoodie she had handed him and wore it, the smell of the archon sticking to it. It hit his nose and he swayed for a moment. It was intoxicating, she was intoxicating. The archon immediately got up from her seat and shot out her hands, “Are you okay?” His hands gripped the railing hard, “Yes, I guess I need to go sleep too.” Right at that moment, there was a knock on the door, and Domin
The Undead Alpha No
The sun was blazing hot and she would have begun to sweat if not for the trees all around her that provided ample shadow. She looked at her wristwatch and it was just 1:30 pm. Feeling that she still had half an hour ahead of her, she decided to stroll her way through the woods. Gerald’s place wasn’t very far away from her own so there was no real need for her to change into her werewolf form. She checked her phone again hoping to hear from Dominic about the Vestibule but there was nothing from him. Sighing she pushed the phone back into her pocket and after 15 minutes saw herself outside her distant cousin’s front door. Based on the short communication she had had with Olivia, they had stopped moving around and decided to stay back in their home to let the kids feel safe and secure. Valencia couldn't agree more. The little kids had been just tossed around from one place to other since their birth so it was good that they were finally home.
The Undead Alpha Another rogue?
Olivia had expected that to happen but knew that she should never stop trying. Sometimes she thought that they should really take her to the healers but then nobody had dealt with a kid in a very long time. After the setback Sarah had received, she didn't want anyone messing with her health accidentally.Adding to that was the fact that Sarah didn't want to meet any strangers or leave her family. Being around unknown people would make her feel anxious and that wasn't how Olivia wanted her little girl to feel. She had decided to let Sarah take her time for a month or so post which she would take her to a healer if there were no signs of improvement.As such, she got up and kissed her daughter’s forehead and added, “I have prepared your favorite apple pie, would you like to eat it now?”Again, Sarah merely shook her head signifying a no as an answer.Her mother tried to be positive that at least her daughter was responding to her questions
The Undead Alpha I can help
Seeing that Freyge was okay and the hycwen would most likely not pose any danger, the wolf jumped up at him baring his claws and his jaw that was wide open. In one quick swipe, the claws cut through the hycwen’s throat like a scissor would cut through paper. A fountain of blood was sprayed on the white werewolfs’ faces and fur turning the spotlessly white wolf into a splash of red against white. The wolf changed back in his human form and quickly went back to help Freyge get back on his feet. The archon’s omega had shallow cuts and injuries and nothing to bother much about. Fryege thanked the young man in front of him profusely, “Had you not arrived at the right time, I would have been dead long ago.” The young man who looked no older than twenty smiled at him and replied, “But you aren’t. Now, how do we dispose of the body?” The archon had turned back into her human form as well and was studying him intently. She could have asked him to submi
The Undead Alpha Overconfident
Dominic and Valencia turned around to look at him at the same time. “What do you mean by you can help?” Valencia asked him ignoring the fact that he had eavesdropped on their conversation. Freyge was standing patiently on the side waiting for a suitable opening. The message he had received from the mage was important but he didn't dare interfere in the matters when two alphas and a rogue were involved. As such, he just rushed inside and began working on what was required of him. Meanwhile, Kyle got down the small flight of stairs and spoke in a confident voice, “I was about to mention my workplace when I was dragged to the wall.” He said while looking straight at Dominic taking a jibe at him. If not for Valencia, Dominic would have ripped him apart then and there. The two guys were throwing cold glares to each other but Valencia could be the least bothered, “We don't have time to waste, Kyle. Go ahead.” Kyle nodded

Valencia let out a growl on hearing that. “How could you, Trecdor? She is a little girl…all these days…I have been living with the guilt of scaring her and it was you all along?” Trecdor spat at her words in disgust, “Trecdor? Do you dare call me by my name? Where is your respect for the Coven's head?” Valencia meanwhile kept glaring at him, “You lost it when you sent an untrained, tainted werewolf after my niece, you don’t have the right to that seat after what you have been doing to the humans…” Dominic tried to mind link her, “Keep him busy talking, I’ll try to untie the knots holding me to this filthy pillar.” She was startled to hear his voice in her head all of a sudden but Trecdor only took it as the reaction to his betrayal. To goad her further, he added, What use is she to me? Well, if she grows up and is capable of birthing a wolf then she may be of some use…if not, she is a burden on our community…like yo
The Undead Alpha The real culprit
After ensuring that the car was safely hidden out of view, both of them stepped out of it and peered through the gate.Luckily nobody had come running towards the gate when it had creaked loudly.So they believed that it could either mean that whoever was in charge didn’t think that anybody would show up or if they did then they wouldn’t walk out alive.After ensuring that nobody was around using their acute sense of hearing and smell, the two slowly edged inside.There was a lot of abandoned stuff littering around the open space so it proved to be effective in hiding.Thus, they used the empty drums and stuff lying around to hide them while carefully walking inside.The two werewolves kept inching towards the entrance that they hoped would be heavily guarded or at least tripped with wires.But to their surprise, again nothing obstructed their way. It was strange and both of them merely glanced at each other before walking
The Undead Alpha See you soon
Running towards him, she turned him around and before he could react, she pulled him by the collar and placed her lips on his. Daniel had not expected her to have such a reaction and he was startled for a moment but soon he gave in to the feeling. He was afraid that she would shun him and was only around him for old time’s sake. The fact that she took the initiative to kiss him dispensed all the worries from his head. His arms went around her and he lifted him from the ground while kissing her back. Jenny smiled and a chuckle escaped her lips to feel him be so elated. His eyes were shining with joy and she could also see a tear or two though he was trying hard to not show it. “I love you” The words escaped his lips automatically and Jenny’s eyes mirrored his emotions. “I have always loved you, Danny,” Jenny replied and the two smiled again. “Now, put me down…” Daniel who was lost in the sensation of
The Undead Alpha I will wait for you
As she kept thinking about this stuff, her feet automatically carried her to the headquarters. She walked inside the headquarters, climbed the stairs, and got to the upper floor where Daniel was sitting on the chair. He looked weak but not as exhausted as before. The guards stationed outside the room bowed their heads at her. “Has he eaten something?” One of the werewolves who were standing away from her bowed his head and answered, “Yes archon, we gave him food and he finished that reluctantly. In fact, he has been asking to meet you. But, we didn’t inform you because we thought it was too early.” She nodded her head in acknowledgment and went inside. Daniel was in a fresh set of clothes, probably Gerald had given her a new set. He even looked to have bathed and not as harrowed as the night before. Daniel had a notebook and a pen in front of him and appeared to be scribbling something. Seeing her enter the room, he got up from his seat and bo
The Undead Alpha Want me to leave?
The voice pained him and the icy tone with which she said that to him made him feel like he was punched in the gut. “Why are you doing this?” He asked in an anguished voice. She was still pinned to the bed and his hands were still holding hers. He tightened his hold on her and bent down again to say, “You don’t really mean that, you are saying that to get back at me.” Valencia kept looking at him with the same steady gaze, her eyes didn’t even falter for a second. She was proud of not giving away the roller coaster of emotions coursing through her. “If you think so…” Calhoun’s eyes grew darker and she hoped that he would get away from her the minute he realized that she wasn’t joking. However, he did just the opposite. Instead of getting away from her, he bent down and gave her the steamiest kiss ever. In one swift motion, he put his hands around her, pulled her in a tight embrace, and began eating her lips, devouring her
The Undead Alpha Leave
“Well let’s say fate decided to meddle with her life. She got separated from her parents and had to live on her own….but….she was a strong girl. As such, she decided to not let destiny decide the course of her life, thus she fought against all odds and became a queen from an orphan.” She gave a dry chuckle at that, “you make it look so effortless...” He responded, “I know it isn’t, but I didn’t want to go into the details of the pain and suffering of the girl, she has had her fill.” Valencia closed her eyes and replied, “Hmm…so, where is she now?” Calhoun looked at her face that was shining with innocence and pain. He wanted to kiss her so bad but didn’t want to take advantage of the situation. Thus, he answered, “She is ruling her kingdom all by herself.” “Oh, she doesn’t have a king?” “She could but she doesn’t need anyone I think.” “Well, everybody needs someone at one point or the other…” The words had tumbl
The Undead Alpha Bedtime story
The word made her momentarily forget what she had been about to say. Nobody had called her queen before. Blinking her eyes she said while fumbling, “Yes…I am..” Though her heart had skipped a beat at that, she continued to look at him with defiance. Calhoun closed the distance between them and stood extremely close to her, their faces inches away from each other. “What wouldn’t have happened if I had stayed away?” He asked her again, slowly and steadily and she realized that he had understood that she had not implied the incident with the blue werewolf. A small part of her heart was amazed to see how he had clearly understood her but the other was still fluttering at the way he had called her queen. It felt oddly nice to hear him call her a queen. Scolding herself, she tried to get a grip on herself as even her wolf seemed to be confused now. Earlier, she had loved Dominic but now feeling what Valencia was feeling made her unsu
The Undead Alpha Queen
Dominic muttered and turned into his wolf. Valencia got up from the ground as the rogue motioned ahead and raised his hand to smack her again. But before he could do this, Dominic jumped on him, sinking his teeth into the werewolf’s arm. In normal circumstances, it would have sliced off the hand as an alpha’s bite was extremely powerful but no such thing happened now. The blue werewolf was more powerful than the alpha but it seemed to lose its mind from time to time. It was as if periodically it was being remote controlled by someone else and just moments of self control were granted to it before it was taken over by that other mysterious controller again. Dominic looked at his beta who got the message and quickly as his pack members to ensure that a stampede doesn’t occur and that everybody is taken to a safe place while they dealt with this rogue. Gerald and Patrick began guiding the frightened crowd, taking them away from the battle
The Undead Alpha Mindless beast
“I kept telling myself that it will be okay, that I could always walk away and return the money if I didn’t like what was going on…” Daniel trailed off and his eyes automatically went to Jenny whose face was almost on the verge of crying. She couldn’t keep it together anymore. His face crumpled to see her like that and Dominic patted her head and pulled her in a hug to calm her down. Daniel felt relieved to see that neither of the alphas was hurting her even when they knew that she was their leverage against them. Gerald walked up to him and offered him a glass of water when the rogue moved his hands to his throat and touched the Adam’s apple. After emptying the water glass, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and continued, “I was taken in and asked to do some mandatory health check-ups that they assured me and the batch of people who had signed up with them…we were taken in a lab of sorts and asked to sleep on a table to take some scan…I do
