Alpha Dominic

Graciela's POV

“And why do you have that look on your face, you make it seem like you don't want them to come."

“Nah, that's not it. I would be a selfish bastard if I deny you the chance of meeting with your sisters. You have not seen them since you lost your mom and I know how much you miss them, but I think that something is not right here” He responded calmly as he walked into his office and sat on his seat, gesturing for me to come over and sit on his lap. I hesitated w little, but when I complied immediately when he fixed me a stern look. We were having our lunch when Bethany's call came in, but his countenance changed after that call and he abandoned his meal claiming that he no longer has. Appetites I know him well enough to know that something is wrong with him, so I fooled him immediately. My sisters are coming tomorrow, I don’ want anything to go wrong before they arrive, I have been working so hard to make everything go perfectly when they arrive I don’t want him to receive them it a grumpy face.

“What the hell are you talking about, Lorenz. Everything is fine and everything is perfect. If something wasn't right they would have canceled this trip, but that's not what they did, they only moved the date forward and it's so perfect because I have really missed them. Please, Lorenz, don't ruin this for me, I really need this, I need them.” I let out pleadingly, gazing into his eyes, giving him my best puppy look.

“Come on, my love. You know I'll never do anything to ruin this for you. I know how much you need this and I know how hare you've worked to make this right. But I can't focus on that alone and you know it. I was supposed to be meeting with Domini as well, I was hoping to clear a lot of things with him when he arrives, I was really looking forward to seeing him and I know that he is also looking forward to this meeting. But your friend Bethany just said that he is not going to come with them tomorrow and that just sounds weird because I know how much he wants this meeting to happen, he has been trying to see me for such a long time and now he has a perfect chance to see me, but he chooses to back down?

I mean, doesn't that seem weird to you, why won't he come when he knows that this is a perfect opportunity to form an alliance with me, that is what he has always wanted, right?" he let out angrily.

“So what exactly do you think is happening right now, you think my friend and my sisters are trying to trick you or what?" “That is not even the point, Gracie. Look here, you don’t know these werewolves and Lycans like I do. I've seen what these creatures can do, especially that crazy Lycan king called Ashford, he is very ruthless and evil. Now I'm not saying that your friend and your sisters are working for him, but all 'm saying is that we need to be careful so we don't fall into one of their traps. They are so smart and devious, it could be a trap, I'm serious. It could be a trap, I'm not even sure that it was your friend that called, I bet her phone was hacked or something, it could be.”

“Fine, you win. It could be a trap, it could be anything, but please just stop. Enough with the conspiracy theory, just tell me what you are planning, and how do you want to confirm if your suspicions are right. Just tell me already Lorenz, what are you going to do to my sisters?” I asked him sadly because I have no idea what he is planning to do. He can be so mean when he wants to be, It would be so bad if he treats them like the enemy, I would hate him for it, and I will never forgive him.

“You make it sound like I'm such a monster, Gracie. Well, if you must know, 'm not planning on doing anything to your sisters, I simply want to instruct the driver to take them somewhere else. I just need to ask them a few questions before I bring them to my house, I mean our house. I don't mean to be rude to your family and friends, but I have to look out for you my love, I have to make sure that they are legit and that they aren't being forced to trick us. I don't know what Dominic is facing over there, he could have spoken to the wrong people and they may have found out that we are planning to form an alliance and they must be trying to sabotage it. Just let me meet them first and find out what is really going on. I promise, I won't do anything to hurt them.” He said calmly, trying to assure me that everything would be okay. But I don't believe him, just don't. I've seen him in action, I've seen what he can do if he is upset and it scares me to leave him with them. He could hurt them or frighten them away, I just can't let that happen I can't let him go there alone and I don’t know how I'm going to convince him to take me along with him. He said the werewolves and Lycans are very smart and devious, but if you ask me, I think that he is way smarter than them. He is careful and strict when making decisions and he is always one step ahead of his enemies. That is why they had tried to get rid of him severally, but he always finds a way to bounce back.

“Can you at least carry me along with you when you go to meet up with them tomorrow, they will feel better if they see me with you. Please, daddy.." I pleaded with a pout, looking like a cutie, hoping I'll get him to accept my request and carry me along,

“Nice try, baby girl. But I'm not falling for it. I'm going with my boys, you sit your pretty ass at home and make sure the housekeepers make something nice for them. You are gonna have to trust me on this one, your sisters are more or less like my sisters, I would never do anything to hurt them, I promise. Now go have fun somewhere else, I want to get busy. ” He told me firmly, making sure he left no room for argument, making it impossible for me to say anything else about my sisters and his plans for tomorrow.

Ciara's POV

The car came by 8:00 am precise, I was thinking the trip would be canceled, considering the fact that Bethany had spent so “much time packing. I thought she had met with Dominic and he has somehow managed to convince her to change her plans but I thought wrong. She came back a few hours later with tears in her eyes, refusing to talk to anyone. She stayed with Fion, and I in my room and they both kept me company taking my mind away from those silly thoughts that always plague me when I am alone. I don't care what king Dominic and his doctors have to say but I know that I am not okay.

I don't feel like myself anymore, I feel like a totally different person altogether, I just don't know how to explain it. It feels like there is a demon within me that is waiting to be let loose. It intensifies my anger and makes me want to destroy everything and everyone that gets in my way. The thought so having such a creature out is so terrifying, I can't let it out, I jus can't. I've been trying so hard to control this urge to kill, but it's getting harder by the day. The anger and bitterness within me will not let me forget about Fabius and everything he did to me. I want to hurt him back, I want to see him dead and it's so frustrating to know that I cannot do anything to him because he is a prisoner in king Dominics dungeon, at such he is untouchable. I just have to trust Dominic, he said he will make sure that he gets what he deserves and I'm hoping that he serves justice on my behalf.

He marked me as his, I can feel his venom in my body and I can also the bond between us. But our bond is not the kind of bond that Fiona shares with Dwayne or the kind of bond that Bethany shares with King Dominic. Our is a bond that is filled with pain and hatred. When I think about him all I feel is pain from all the hurtful things he had done to me. The pain threatens to swallow me up, but then I close my eyes because when I close my eyes, I see him. I see him in that dungeon an I'see him in pain. Knowing that he is going through pains is all I need to calm me down because I want to see him suffer, I want him to feel so much pain, more pains than he put me through.

Is it weird if I say that I want him dead?

Yeah, I want that. I don't just want him to suffer, I want him dead as well and I want him to be killed slowly and painfully while I watch as he screams in pain and begs for mercy. That is what I want, that would definitely pacify the demon within me. That would make me less vindictive and I would feel safer when he is completely out of the picture.

As the car moved further away from the castle, I could feel my heart racing, it felt like I couldn't breathe. The object of my hatred is still in that castle, as long as he remains in that Castle, I will never be able to move on with my life without being scared for my life and my family. He could escape that dungeon and come for me, he could kill Graciela and Fiona, just like he killed our mom. I can't let that happen, I can't go, I can't go, I can't leave this Castle until king Dominic gets rid of him, I can't move on with my life until he is dead...

“Beth... Beth... Beth.." I kept muttering softly, calling out to her and tapping her repeatedly.

“Cici, what's wrong with you, why aren't you breathing well, is it a panic attack?

No, that's not right. You can't be having a panic attack, you are a..." she paused at this moment, refusing to complete her sentence. From the look on her face, I can't tell that whatever she wanted to say is very important but I couldn't ask her about it because the car was still moving and every mile it goes puts me further away from Fabius. I can't let them take me away, I need to be here, I need to make sure that he stays in that dungeon until it is time to put a bullet through his head. “Please Beth, we need to go back, I can't do it, I can't leave.” I cried out to her, looking a bit panicky.
