All Chapters of The Alpha and The Slave: Chapter 61 - Chapter 67

In the darkest night,Go to the old citadel.Elena"Faster, mom! We are almost out of time!" I say to mom, while I look at my watch, 11:53 PM. Shit!"We will get there in time!"And I see my mom going even faster. Three move minutes and we stop the car. We still have to climb 1480 stairs to get to the old citadel of Poienari.Everyone thinks that the castle of Vlad Țepeș, or Dracula, is Bran, but he had two castles, one in Târgoviștene, and the other in Poienari.I run on the stairs, pushing myself even more than ever. Vlad already told me how to get into the secret tunnel that leads under the ruins."Elena! Wait for us!" my mom yells.But I don't listen. All I care about is to save Vladimir. I touch the scythe to make sure I still have it in my messenger bag. I look at the watch, 11:57 PM. I push myself even harder.When I get to the ruins, I look for the wall that Vlad told me.I push the stones and grab and pull the wall rings Vlad described. Stairs that lead beneath the ruins appe

When everything seems lost,Remember that ancient blood is the key.ElenaAfter seconds that seemed like years, the door opens, revealing a long chamber. At the end of the chamber, I see the altar. Vlad takes Vladimir from my mom."Here we have to be very careful. Harpies protect the old altar. Never look up, and if a harpy comes to us, never look her in the eyes. She will take it as a fight signal, and trust me, you don't want to fight a harpy. They are tough creatures. No running, we walk normally."We do as Vlad instructed us, and we start walking. We walk with soft steps.I hear the flaps of wings, and a harpy lands next to us."You finally came back," I hear a female voice."After our last time together, I thought I would never see you again. Missed me?" the female voice asks Vlad."Mika, as lovely as always. I see you haven't changed a bit. But I am not here to see you.""Then why are you here? And bringing females in here, after we....""Meet my daughter and granddaughter. As y

ElenaOnce Vladimir is feeling better, we leave the temple behind. When we are in the tunnel, where the cells are, Vladimir stops and looks at me."There is another female here. We have to save her."Vlad is the one that looks for the female that Vladimir says, as we get out. Five minutes later Vlad appears with a small female that has tears in her eyes."Are you the bride of Kalipso?" I ask her.She looks at me with scared eyes."It's OK. I will make sure you are reunited with him," I tell her."Thank you. I am Maite," she says."Elena."After this, we get in the car. I am eager to get back to the pack and have the doctor check up on Vladimir.In the car, I get with Vladimir in the back seat and put my head on his chest, and he wraps a hand around my shoulder. I listen to his heart, and it beats strongly. And I bask in his peach scent."Don't you ever die on me again. No matter what," I whisper to him.Vladimir tightens his grip on me. Slowly I drift to sleep. Everything that happene

Seven years laterVladimirLife has been peaceful for the last seven years. Being an Alpha is not my thing, but I help Elena with every that I can. The pack is bigger than before.After the death of Mihnea, we tried to make peace between the vampires and us, but it takes a lot of effort. Vlad helps as much as possible, but he still prefers to live alone, even if we invited him to live with us in the pack. A few vampires joined the pack. At first, it created a lot of tension between the pack members, but when a female vampire fell in love with a werewolf and started a family, things got better. Her name is Alice, and the werewolf is Sergei, from the former Silver Pack. They have a lovely young daughter, Alma.Even Ana and Mikael joined the pack. It took time, but Mikael finally convinced Ana to accept him, and they are expecting their first pup.We still have a lot of issues to resolve, but we are on the right track.Elena and I have three pups, Karmina and Alec, our twins, that are si
