The Alpha And His Beautiful Monster - Chapter 122

Oliver’s POV

The moment Victoria got inside the house, I knew right away that something was off, and when she told me she wanted to come home to Zenith, I knew there was no way I could stop her from leaving, and all I needed to do was be there and give her my full support.

“Do you think they will like me?” Victoria asked as she put on her shoes, and I smiled at her.

“Of course, they liked you even before they met you, Victoria; they were the ones who asked me to go to Zenith and be with you. You know I had been hard-headed, and I regretted everything I told them, but there is nothing I can do about it, and no matter how I wanted to go back in time, I can’t because I am not that powerful.” I responded, and she raised her eyebrows while she linked her arm with mine.

“You mean there is someone out there who has the power to turn back time?” She asked, and I could see the amusement on her face as I nodded my head.

“I only heard about it, but maybe there is someone out there who can; as you know, there are many wonders around us,” I responded.

“I agree, and I wished I would meet someone who has that power.” She mumbled.

“Why, do you want to erase me from your memory?” I asked, and she shook her head.

“Of course not, I will never do that; besides, I wanted you to be with me always, I wish I could go back to the time when I was a kid, and I will change things differently. I will try to uncover my identity. If ever I will be given a chance to go back in time, I will do everything to make my parents confess everything to me.” She answered.

“I want them to be honest with me, and I wanted to enjoy my power at an early age, and I think it would be fun doing magic while I am still young, and I will make sure to give mom and dad the confidence they both needed so they will trust me to enjoy my fairy and werewolf power.” She added.

“I wish to go back in time and spend my days with my parents, and I don’t care if I am a werewolf or my dad being the black wolf. All I wanted was to eat my meals with them. I had a lonely childhood, Oliver, and now that I knew it was all because of that stupid curse, I wanted to break that, and I think the only way to do that is to face my grandfather.” She said, and I suddenly felt alarmed.

“Hey, I don’t want you to feel stressed right now, Victoria, we are going to attend dinner with the elders and my pack members, and I don’t want you to think of something else. I already told you I will go home to Zenith with you.” I responded.

“And about your mom’s father, we will talk about him some other time, and I assure you; I will help you find him because I know your mother will never tell you how to go to the Fairy Realm,” I added, and she looked at me sideways and the smile she gave me to make my heart skip a beat.

“Are you sure about that, Oliver?” She asked me without fluttering her eyes, and I nodded at her.

“Of course, Victoria,” I responded as I squeezed her hand, and we descended the stairs in a hurry because we were almost late.

I felt glad I hadn’t seen Victoria’s parents because I didn’t want her mood to be affected by their presence. I could tell Victoria was still upset with them because she avoided talking with her mom and dad by escaping lunch, and I felt relieved she didn’t insist that I knew what was happening at Zenith.

Werewolves packed the restaurant owned by one of my pack members, and they all stood up when we arrived. And they were looking at Victoria from head to toe, and I could see how much they adored her, and I asked them to return to their seats.

And I pulled Victoria with me so we would stand in front of my pack members, and I could feel her limbs are shivering. I talk with her through her mind to relax, and there is nothing to be afraid of, and when she loosens up a bit, I hold her shoulders and slowly turn her around, so she will be facing me before I get down on one knee, and I could see how her face blushed when she realized what I am going to do next.

She covered her mouth with her hands as I pulled out the box from my pocket, and when I opened it, the crowd gasped, including Victoria. I slowly picked up the diamond engagement ring from the jewelry box, and it was dazzling; suddenly, I heard her voice on my head, and her words pierced my heart.

“Oliver, what are you doing? If you plan to propose to me, you need to stop.” She said, and I could feel the pleading in her voice, and it took me a while before I could respond to her.

“Why, Victoria? I think it is about time I will propose to you.” I said, and I could see my pack members were waiting for me to make my next move, and I could tell they were all waiting for me to ask Victoria the question they had been longing to hear.

“No, you can’t propose now with what is happening around us; how could you do this to me? I still wanted to finish my studies, Oliver.” She said, and this time I could feel her worries, and instead of answering her, I spoke louder so everyone could hear me, and I saw the horrified looked on her face when she realized I didn’t have a plan to stop what I was about to do.

“Victoria Winner, I did all my best to stop myself from loving you because I hated the idea that ever since I was a little boy, they all expected me to marry you even before you were born, and it pissed me off because I don’t want anyone to dictate my heart and mind who I am going to fall for, and when I first met you, I realized I lost,” I said while she was looking at me with wide eyes.

“I couldn’t stop myself from falling in love with you hard, and I admit to everyone here I am willing to eat up all my words, and I don’t care if all of them will laugh at me because I never listened to them, and I insisted I could find any woman I can marry, but I was so wrong,” I added. Victoria tried to communicate with me through her head, but I shut her off, and I didn’t allow her to speak with me using telepathy.

“I can’t wait another day without asking you this question, and I know you are still so young, but don’t worry, Victoria, I don’t care if we will have a long engagement as long as you say yes. All I want is assurance coming from you that you will be spending the rest of your life with me.” I continued.

And the expression on her face suddenly changed, and I realized maybe she understood that I wanted us to be engaged, but we could get married later when she was ready. And I felt so glad Victoria is now smiling at me.

I know the proposal is unimportant to us werewolves because we will have a stronger bond than being engaged the moment I mark her, but I knew she grew up believing she was human. It made her think and act like a human, and I could tell her human nature would be part of who she is, and I don’t want Victoria to change.

“I love you, and I know I couldn’t live without you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you, loving you every second of every day. Victoria Winner, will you marry me?” I asked without taking my gaze away from her, and I was patiently waiting for her answer, and I could feel the nervousness that made my knees feel so weak, and then she slowly nodded her head while I could see the tears of happiness on her eyes.

“Yes, Oliver Prize, I couldn’t imagine my life without you even if at first, I hated your guts, but right now I love everything about you, And I couldn’t wait to be your wife,” Victoria responded.

And her statement made me smile, and I wondered if Victoria changed her mind because she said she couldn’t wait, but I don’t care if my fiancee will marry me after ten years as long as Victoria is now my fiancee, and I couldn’t wait to ask her when she wants to get married.

“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” I heard our audience shout, and I almost forgot we were in front of my pack members, and Victoria offered her hand. I gradually put the ring on her finger and realized it perfectly fit on her ring finger, and I got up, and without warning, I captured Victoria’s sweet lips.

I kissed her passionately, and it elicited a soft moan from her sweet mouth, and then I could hear the crowd hollered at us, and I released Victoria’s swollen lips with a wide grin on my face as I listened to my pack members say their congratulations.
