23rd February 00:13 We were wandering all around the town the entire day. Although we have gone to market to buy necessary items. Like herbs, diet charts, diet food, fruits, and an emergency bag. These all were necessary during pregnancy. O my Jesus. I still cannot believe I'm pregnant. It's been what, ten days? Alistair was right. He actually knocked me up in one night only. When we got home, it was late at night. Alistair was being ultra-protective now. Every step I take. He would eye it as if I'll fell down any moment. "Stop doing that!" I moaned as we walked inside the mansion. "Doing what baby?" He asked smiling at me. He have been smiling all day ever since he heard the good news. "You are eyeing me like I'm very vulnerable or something. It makes me feel weak" I lied. It actually makes me feel butterflies in my stomach. "No baby. You are not vulnerable at all. You are the strongest woman I have ever met. And now you are also caring for my baby Luna inside you" He admi
23rd February 01:12 ( The man in the dark's POV) I have dropped the note on the window of Clara's room. Everyone in the dark blood coven knows about her pregnancy. I don't like targeting the weaklings. But the King of Dark's words are final. Of course, the systems of Alastair's security would not recognize me. Those systems are built for tracking shifters or hunters even. But I'm none of that, I'm a creature of darkness and I don't have any physical form. I can take one when I please. I've been killing all those people on the order of the King of the Dark. I have seen how broken Clara was after she have to face every death. Gabriel has been keeping us updated about her condition. She is not a pawn on this chessboard. She is indeed a queen. Without her, the King won't have the power to checkmate. But first, the queen needs to be broken. Then only we can mold her at our will. I jumped as I landed inside the Coven's territory. It doesn't feel like home. Being near Clara gives me a
Clara's POV My breath hitched. Those two words were far from something I have ever imagined. Then again there's very little happening as I thought ever since I came into this world. I swept my gaze across the room. "What is a vampire spirit?" I asked no one in particular. All of them exchange a look of hesitation. it was Alastair who answered. "Vampire spirit is a lone vampire who is immoral. Vampire's being immortal is just a myth. But the Vampire spirit is different from all of them. He worships the lord of darkness. His work is to protect his species. He has been doing it for centuries " I process everything he told me. A question arises in my mind. " How did Morgan know about the Vampire spirit? She could have yelled vampire or killer or anything. Her uttering that particular name doesn't sit right with them" I asked. " It looks like Morgan had known more than she was supposed to know. That's why she was killed" Alpha David said. My heart squeezed. It was grieving a sister
Clara's POV When I came back to our room. I stared at the note that I have received. I'm thinking about just going and seeing myself who is it and what does they want from me. But I have promised Alastair I won't endanger myself again and also if I'm to face them on my own then I need to have something to have my back myself. Once the decision was made and I was lost in thoughts. The door opened and Alastair came inside. He looked tired. My heart reached out for him. "Alastair, did you find something? " I asked. He walked inside the room closing the door behind him. In one swept motion, he peeled his shirt above his head. He made his way to the bed taking me along with him. He cuddled me from behind. "You are my everything, Lara, don't ever leave me" He whispered. I turned, His eyes were closed already asleep as he rested his head on my chest. An Alpha king like him will be the last person someone would think of as weak and vulnerable. But at that moment. He was both weak a
Clara's POV The minute we heard the news. We were out of our room, I didn't even change my camisole and shorts. Not that anyone will care about my exposing body when there's so much dangling on our heads. "I know you are tensed but please baby slow down. I can't risk you falling and hurting yourself and our child" Alastair pointed, then only I noticed that I was walking much faster than I should. I smiled at him and let him guide me with his palm on my back. I'm still in my early pregnancy stage, but the baby bump is a little, very little visible. Every time I look at it, my heart started melting. God! Why can't I have a simple life with my family? Please don't steal this family from me too. I can't live with it. I blinked the tears that were about to come out at any moment. Thankfully, we reached Alastair'e house office. Everyone was gathered there. Other than the Alphas, a few pack mates were there too, including Seline. She seems much more worried than anyone in the room. I
Clara's POV "Okay now for god’s sake someone gets us back to the topic at hand" I groaned. I was feeling very bad. Something seems to shift inside me. I don’t know what but it doesn't feel right. I tried to ignore it and it was easy because we have more important things to do. "She asked Tai how he got injured. Tai told her that it was before they left him that they cloak him with a spell of some sort it injured him badly after that he varied to someone more or equal to his power. He took humans help to come here" Alpha Zender said. "That is a low blow from someone who seems powerful, " Alpha David said. I frowned, Alastair too seems to consider Alpha David's word. "What do you mean? " I asked. Alpha David stood up everyone looked at him "Tai had the blood results of the killer, If he had come to us on the time he was supposed to, we would have found the person soon" "And he would not have been able to escape. The people who abducted Tai were just biding their time for the k
Alastair's POV (Five Years back) "Cristina, where are you taking me exactly?" I asked my childhood best friend and Gabriel's soon-to-be mate. Cristina. She turned around walking backwards, smiling at me "What? The scary Big Bad Alpha King terrified of me?" She said teasingly. I rolled my eyes at her. "Yeah, I'm very scared probably shitting my pants" sarcastically I said. She laughed in her sexy way. Although it doesn't attract me in a sexual way. I think she is cute, like my baby sister Seline. Gabriel would have twisted my butt if he would have found us joking like this in the middle of a forest. "Jokes apart I seriously want to talk with you about something and I thought I should show you something special too. That's why we are here in the middle of nowhere" Cristina said dramatically. I walked close to her. I find her very annoying but she still manages to stand alive. If anyone would have managed to annoy me I would have been watching while crows feed on their corpse.
Alastair's POV I still remember that evening when Cristina, Gabriel's dead mate. Told me about Clara's father's murder. That day I also found out that Clara had some connections to vampires. Although when I searched where Cristina told me I would find Clara's dad. There was not even a clue. No nearby house to look for My mate. But I knew Cristina too well to know she don't lie. That was also the last day I ever talked to Cristina in her sane form. Cristina had gone rogue after a few days she delivered the news to me. She was good then suddenly she had gone rogue. That was too much of a coincidence. I talked to a witch from a powerful coven. I provided her with some DNA fur of Cristina's body to confirm my doubt. And sure enough. Someone had spelled Cristina. She was pushed to become rogue. Her life was stolen from her. That day I knew that My mate, Clara is not safe. She is chased by a potential threat that neither wants to harm her nor they want her safe. Now looking at m
