The Alpha And His Beautiful Monster - Chapter 108

Oliver’s POV

I talked with Noel at the front porch before he left my house, and when I got back inside, I was looking for Victoria, and I couldn’t believe I would have this kind of emotion within me. It feels like I couldn’t stop myself from missing her even if I was with her a while ago, and then there is always fear in my heart that I will lose her at any moment, and that notion terrifies me.

“Carrie, I want you to prepare dinner for five tonight,” I said.

“The usual crowd?” She asked, and I smiled, knowing she really knew me.

“Yes, of course, and there is additional to that crowd, the woman who made my life worth living for, and you were right; love is real, Carrie,” I said with a wide grin on my face.

“I told you, and I felt glad you found her, Oliver, and I feel at peace now that you have someone in your life that you loved you more than life itself.” She replied, beaming at me.

“Me too, Carrie,” I responded, and I said my goodbye to hear, and then I searched the house for Victoria. My heart swelled when I found her sleeping on the lounger on the balcony of my room, and I realized she must be so sleepy after consuming three rabbits. I couldn’t stop myself from sitting beside her, and I put her head on my lap while I put my hand on her waist and my other palm caressed her hair. It feels lovely to look at the beach with Victoria in my arms.

I have always loved this scenario, but right now, I could say it feels more satisfying to have her in my life. Then, I realized I needed to tell her everything except his father’s secrets since I knew nothing about them. I asked Victoria to start her training, and I plan to do it later this afternoon, but when she asked me if we could do it right away, I felt more thrilled.

We ran for miles, and I felt impressed with her strengths and energy now, compared to when she hadn’t shifted yet into her wolf form. I know I should have her endurance training every morning, and then we will focus on her strength workout in the evening.

We don’t have enough time, but she is intelligent and strong, so I don’t think we will have a problem with her learning the things she needs to protect herself and others. She was silent during our entire run, and she didn’t complain until I called it a day.

Victoria was sweating, and her face flushed. When she looked at me, I wanted to kiss her sweet lips right away, but I controlled myself because I didn’t want her to tell me she was right; I couldn’t be a good teacher towards her, so I made a promise while we will have our training, I will keep my hands and mouth off of her.

“Are you okay?” I asked, and she smiled at me.

“Of course, thank you, Oliver, you make me feel alive even though I still find it hard to believe all the things that are happening in my life,” Victoria said. I gave her a sweet smile as I brushed my disheveled hair away from my face, and I realized I needed a haircut since I needed to go back to work, and I didn’t need to pretend I was a Senior High School student anymore.

“You are welcome, Victoria, I know it will take time before you can finally accept everything, but at least you are starting to embrace who you are. Don’t stress yourself, just one at a time, and you will be fine.” I responded.

“I know, I need to accept everything because I am aware this is your world, and I couldn’t imagine my life living without you, Oliver.” She softly said, and I felt so happy, and this time I held her hand, and we got inside the house together.

During lunch, I could tell Victoria was more lively, and she was talking to me nonstop, and I felt so happy to have this kind of conversation with her. Still, I knew I needed to tell her more about us to make her aware of who she will be dealing with and to learn what she needed to know about herself. I asked Victoria to come with me outside to the pavilion at the garden’s center, surrounded by a beautifully manicured lawn. The Bermuda grass looked so beautiful as it stretched towards the back part of my rest house.

“I love your house, Oliver; it looked so magical.” She said, and I beamed at her, and I moved closer to her, and I put my hand around her shoulders.

“Thank you, I felt so delighted you liked it,” I responded as I held her hand.

“Of course, I do, and I wish we would live here forever, and there would be no problems, and we will remain humans.” She said, and I released a soft sigh.

“Me too, Victoria, but we don’t have a choice,” I said, and she gave me a weak smile.

“Am I really in danger, Oliver?” She asked while she was looking at me with tenderness on her face.

“Yes, and there is one more thing I want to tell you, Victoria,” I said.

“What it is?” She asked, and she strengthened her body.

“About your unusual power, since we don’t know about it yet, I want to ask you to try to stop yourself from using it when we are surrounded by other werewolves, not even with my pack members,” I said.

“Why? What do you think I am?” Victoria asked.

“Hmm, it was only based on my observation from the power I witnessed from your hands,” I said, and her eyes widened.

“I think you are a hybrid,” I said, and I could see how her face saddened.

“Does it mean I am an abomination to all of you?” She asked, sounding so hurt.

“No, you are lovely, Victoria, and I know you will not cause harm to others, but we need to be careful that no one will know about your powers aside from being a werewolf, and starting tomorrow, we will include that in your exercises, I could tell that is why you were prophesied to defeat the hybrid king because you are the only one who can match his power and strength.” I declared.

“There is no one we can ask for help right now, and I am still apprehensive about telling Noel about it because I don’t want him to feel afraid, or he will report you to the council. I could tell he cares about you, but it has been instilled in every wolf’s mind that hybrids are not accepted in our society.” I added, and I could feel the trembling of her body, and I pulled Victoria closer to me as I kissed her head.

“Aren’t you afraid of me, Oliver?” She softly asked while her beautiful eyes were gazing at me.

“Of course not; how can I be afraid of you when I love everything about you, even the way you move your body. We are connected more than you will ever know, Victoria, and I need to mark you soon.” I said, and I released a sigh of relief that I finally told her about the mark thing.

“To mark me? Another term I needed to digest, but I have seen it in movies, and I want you to know I am so ready to become your mate, Oliver. I thank you for being here with me, or else I will be so lost and broken-hearted, knowing almost everything I know about myself were lies, and knowing you are not fake made me feel so lucky.” She responded, and her answer made me smile.

“And you are the reason I am willing to embrace my new world even if it terrifies me every time I turn into a werewolf now and then, but I know it would be all worth it because of you, Oliver, I am ready to take risk as long as you will be by my side.” She added, and my grin widened. And I couldn’t stop myself from capturing her sweet mouth, and I love the way she kissed me back without reservations.

“Thank you, Victoria, I don’t know what to say, but one thing is I am certain I will protect you with my life,” I responded, and she caressed my face with her fingers.

I enjoyed my stay on the pavilion with my girlfriend in my arms, and we talked and then make-out while I could feel the freshness of our surroundings. Like Victoria, there is also a part of me that wanted to stay here forever with her, but I know it would be impossible. All I can do is cherish the moment I have with her here at my rest house, and I will make sure her stay in my vacation house will be more enjoyable; and I couldn’t wait to mark her on the next full moon because I want everything to be perfect for us.

It would be so special if I will mark her during the next full moon, and it will symbolize how much I love her, and the waiting would be torture, but I am sure it will be all worth it, and I know our bond will become more robust, and I am excited to make her my wife.

It was twilight when Zane and his wife arrived, and I couldn’t wait to introduce Trixie to my girlfriend. I welcomed them both and asked them to follow me into the living room. I could see the happiness in Victoria’s face when I told her Trixie was Zane’s mate and wife, and I know she was excited to talk with her because Trixie is the first female werewolf she had met aside from her mother.

“Are you a werewolf?” Victoria asked Trixie right away after she shook her hand, and Zane’s wife was nodding her head as her smile spread across her beautiful face.

I felt so glad my best friend brought his wife, and I could tell my girl would gain a true friend tonight, and I wanted to thank Trixie for coming. I am optimistic her presence will make Victoria’s mood lighten, and I couldn’t stop myself from smiling as I looked at Victoria chatting with Trixie happily.

I felt my phone vibrate on my jeans pocket, and I couldn’t stop myself from feeling so worried when I saw Nicklaus’s name on my phone screen, and I excused myself from our guests just on time Noel arrived. And I made my way to the living room with a heavy heart, and I was hoping everything was okay in Zenith City.
