As I sleep for the night very comfortably, there is a few times I wake up suddenly when I hear a noise, or something feels slightly off. This one time particularly bothers me though because it’s in the wee hours of the morning when I hear a knocking on the outside of the window. Knowing that we are on the second story, I am quite surprised by this and decide to go take a look.
While carefully climbing out of the bed, I make sure to not wake Dominic as I scoot off the edge and slide my feet into my slippers. Scanning the room, I find my robe and hurry to grab it before the chill sets in my bones. Afterwards, I creep to the window so I can see what is causing all the noise.
Shocked, I cry out just before a pair of hands grabs me and pulls me out the window. Not being able to see what has a hold of me, I notice one thing and one thing only. Whatever has me smells like death and in the darkness of the moonless night I can only see
Waking up, I stretch and smell the distinct aroma of coffee by the end table. I open my eyes to see Dominic staring at me with a smile stretched across that handsome face of his before I glance over at the cup of coffee waiting for me to sample. “Mm. That smells wonderful.” I say with a dry voice and my throat feels a little scratchy this morning. “Only the best for you my Ana, my mate.” He smiles again before continuing, “So, do you think mating last night was a good thing? By the way you reacted I would have to say you did.” His smile turns to a smirk and then he winks at me before handing me the cup of coffee on the bed. “Mm.” I reply instead of stating the obvious, just as soon as I take a sip of this delicious liquid. Closing my eyes, I savor the flavor of the coffee till he asks me another question. “Was I having a dream early this morning? I could have sworn you were up by the window and my eyes tricked m
As soon as we get back, Omega Dante has dinner ready for us, so we head right on in and take a seat. To the left of me is Alpha Alexander, he is older than the two of us and wiser from what I can tell. He sits there quietly at the table and stares at everyone while eating his meal.On the right of Dominic, is Alpha Zander. He is younger than Dominic by about ten years I figure. His bright blue eyes always are glowing, and his platinum blonde hair almost looks silver as it shines in the moonlight at times. Every time I have seen him, he is covered in potential mates for the night.That one I worry about, because he seems to have taken a liking to me as of lately. Therefore, I am more than glad that he is seated on the other side of Dominic and not by me. I could quickly see this dinner going badly if he had been next to me and then his hand just accidently moves to my knee.Dominic turns to me and gives me a funny l
Hearing this tidbit of information, I am forced to realize that all is not well in our little part of the world. When a wave of nausea hits me again, I can’t help but to alert them to my conscious state. The doctor turns around quickly and stares at me before asking, “Are you feeling better?”“No.” I barely get out before throwing up all over.When I am done, I glance up at him and he states, “You really should try to hold it in, because you won’t stop till you do.”Knowing that he is in on whatever this is, doesn’t make me feel better and I certainly don’t trust him anymore. Hoping to see Dominic in the room with me, I scan the room to find him in the corner. He is still unconscious and has a breathing tube down his throat at this moment.Nodding, I return my attention to the doctor and ask before I feel another wave of nausea come over me, “Am I sick?&r
After a long night of tossing and turning, I eventually get to sleep just before dawn to awaken a few minutes later when Dominic gets up. I hear his footprints on the hard wood floor and then the toilet flush from the bathroom. Then his heavy footprints continue back to the bed before I decide to open my eyes and smile at him.I must look tired, because he then comments, “Go back to sleep for a bit my Ana because soon enough, we will be heading out to find us a new doctor from one of the surrounding villages. I am sure there is someone very capable there.” After he says it, he leaves me and gets dressed.Sitting up, I stare at his wonderful body while he pulls his pants on and then he smiles at me before picking up his shirt. Then he states, “If you aren’t going back to sleep, get up and we will go now.”Pushing my body up to a sitting position, I pause for a moment before climbing out of bed. Pla
“Are you alright?” Monique asks me when she opens the door to the bathroom slowly. Raising my head up from the toilet, I barely get out, “Yes.” Before I throw up all over the floor. With my stomach emptying everything inside it, I start to cry because I can only think of one reason and one reason only why this would happen. As the tears of happiness flow from my eyes, Monique reaches my side and starts to rub my back. “There, there. It will be just fine. I am sure it is just something you have eaten.” The minute she says it, I raise my head up again and turn to her. Staring into her eyes I can’t help but to laugh because she looks so serious. “I’m pregnant.” I manage to say before another wave of nausea hits me hard and I lose whatever has remained in my stomach after the first several times. Making a mess everywhere, the minute I start to feel better, I stand up and state, “I feel gross, I have to take a sh
“Hey, do you feel better today?” Monique stares at me with a mischievous grin on her face.“Yes. Thank you for asking.” I say as my mind races at a million miles a minute.“I think the whole castle heard you last night by the way.” She starts laughing and then winks at me before walking over to rub my shoulders.Glancing up at her with squinted eyes and a smirk on my face, I ask, “Why?”“Because when you started demanding that he take you now, everyone heard it and they have been talking about it all morning.” She points at me with a big smile on her face and then she asks, “By the way, did you ever find out who the other players in the conspiracy to kill you were? It is quite disturbing to say the least.”“No, unfortunately Dominic did not think to question him before he killed him. He was to upset by the whole thing. I could never deny him that b
The next couple of days start to get rougher unfortunately. When I hear Dominic yelling at the top of his lungs at the chef, I know there is something really wrong, “This food tastes like shit!” He points to the plate he is holding. Then he continues stating, “What is it anyway?” The chef stares at him in disbelief before stating quietly with his head down, “Shrimp Scampi. I was hoping something different would make you feel better. I’m sorry you didn’t approve of it.” Feeling bad for him and wondering what exactly is wrong, I take him aside after dinner and have a talk with him. “Dominic, you are taking your bad mood out on the Chef. What exactly is wrong?” I cock my head and ask as nicely as possible. He turns to me with an upset look on his face before stating, “We still haven’t found the ones responsible for the poisoning. At this rate, you may have to go to your parent’s house just for safe keeping till I get thi
“Look out.” I hear from behind me and turn around just in time before I get hit in the head with a ball.One of the pups had thrown it in the opposite direction but it bounced off the wall and came right at my head. It might have knocked me out if they weren’t paying attention. Shaking my head, I turn around and say with a smile on my face, “You two need to watch what you are doing?”I can’t really scold them because they didn’t mean to. They are just kids having fun. Who am I to stop their game when they weren’t even trying to hurt anyone?Shaking my head again, I walk to the kitchen quickly to grab my breakfast before these little ones eat me alive. My stomach is grumbling so much by the time I sit down, that I feel like a monster is inside. Are these little ones supposed to be so voracious all the time? Or is it because they are hybrids?After eating a small mount
