The Alpha And His Beautiful Monster - Chapter 126
Oliver’s POV
When I saw the enemies punching and shaking the car, I could hear Victoria’s scream, and I was terrified that they would get my fiance. I am on my way to help her, even if there are so many of them. And I couldn’t believe more hybrids were coming, and they were now in their wolf form, and I didn’t have a choice but to remain in my human shape even if I knew I would be more robust when I was in my wolf form.
I needed to help her, but I felt so useless that I couldn’t even protect Victoria. I punched, lunged, ducked, and rolled to avoid their attacks, but I knew they were only playing with me, and the moment they used their mage magic in me, I will be doomed.
“Victoria, I thought you would never come out from your hiding place.” One of them said, and I could see them circling the car, and out of the corner of my eye, I could see the thirst in their eyes, and I knew they would take my fiancee, and I needed to save Victoria, and I run towards her.
“Let me go!” I heard her shout, and she was kicking her legs as they pulled her out of the car. They are stronger because of their hybrid nature, and I could tell they were having so much fun.
“Do you think your boyfriend can help you? He is an ordinary werewolf, Victoria, and the moment we use our magic on him, he will be screaming in pain.” The man wearing a black hooded cloak said, and then he looked at me with disgust.
“We are only having fun!” He added; I could see Victoria stop struggling while she looked at me in the eyes, I could feel the swelling on my face, and I could even taste the blood on my mouth, I felt sore and in pain all over my torso, but I am healing myself.
“Don’t worry, Oliver; I will protect you.” She said in my mind, and I couldn’t stop myself from smiling at her. And she looked so cute even if we were in the middle of a fight and we were losing the battle.
“Hey, don’t worry about me, Victoria. I can take care of myself.” I responded through her head, and I could see the worries and fear on her lovely face.
“You need to focus, Victoria; we can fight them,” I said.
“But I can t use my magic; what if werewolves will know I am also a hybrid?” I asked.
“You don’t have a choice but materialize the power you have; you are strong and powerful, you need to keep yourself safe, and one thing you can do to save yourself is to use your fairy magic,” I responded.
“Wow! It seems the two lovebirds are communicating with each other through their minds. Well, I regret to inform you both, you can’t get away from us.” Their leader said.
“Prize, we meet at last, and I could tell you live up to our expectations. And what we heard about you were all true, but you failed with one thing. You fell in love with Victoria Winner, don’t you know about the other prophecy?” He asked as he walked closer to me, I looked at him without fear, and I stood on my ground, and even if we were outnumbered, I would never let my fiancee know that I felt weak.
“They said Victoria Winner would be your downfall. She will rise, but you will fall. Isn’t it ironic, Prize? The woman you love the most would be the reason for your death?” He said, and his men laughed while those who turned into wolves growled and howled. They laughed at my expense, but his word never fazed me.
“Boss, I think you should show him what you mean.” One of his men said.
“Relax, Carl, let us have some game first.” Their boss said, and I knew what kind of games he meant, and I could feel the blood in my veins boiling when I saw him caress Victoria’s face. I lunged at him, but his men held my body, and I struggled to get away from them, and they continued to laugh while their leader touched Victoria’s face down to her collarbone.
“Don’t touch her!” I yelled angrily, but he only gave me a wicked smile that made my entire face flare with anger.
“I can touch her anytime I want, Prize; she is now mine before I will turn her over to the black wolf.” He said.
“And you can do nothing about it because you are weak as an ant, Oliver; your strength will be nothing against us, and I will bring her to our hideout first and enjoy her company before we leave Zenith and turn her over; to our beloved King.” He said, and I used all my strength, and I was able to get free from the men holding me, and I felt so triumphant. Still, my happiness was cut short because before I could even hit their leader, someone hauled me, and I flew into the air, and I could feel the breaking of my bones the moment I hit the pavement.
I quickly stood up after I healed my fractured bones, but before I could run towards Victoria, I received another blow that made me stumbled to the ground. I kicked the hybrid on his gut, and the next thing I know, I was thrown over at the back of my pick-up truck, and I was groaning in pain.
I loathe myself, and I felt so useless that I couldn’t even defend the woman I love, and I knew Victoria was so determined to come home to Zenith because she was confident I could protect her, and now I let that wicked man take her.
“Is that all you’ve got, Prize? How could you look so weak right now? We heard so much about you, and I couldn’t believe it was all lies. Get up and fight me,” One of the hybrids challenged me, and I was curling my fists on my sides.
I felt so angry that their leader took Victoria away from me, and I got up as I could feel my injuries healed by my power. Still, as I took blow after blow, I could feel Carl using his mage magic on me, he suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared again, he pulled something out from the pocket of his leather jacket, and I realized he got a gun.
“You think you are Victoria’s mate, Oliver? You’re mistaken; the silver bullet of this gun will kill you,” he said sarcastically, and I growled as I attacked him with my claws, but he pulled the trigger.
I heard the loud gunshot that echoed the whole place as I could feel the bullet penetrating my chest, and then I could listen to the outcry of Victoria as I fell to the ground.
“No!!!!!” Victoria screamed, and I could tell she was crying as I hit my body with a loud thud on the cemented ground, another gunshot hit my heart, and I tried my best to open my eyes, and I felt too weak to speak with Victoria through her mind.
I wanted to run toward my fiancee and put my arms around her, and I wondered if he were telling the truth that he was using silver bullets, I would be glad if it was true, but If they used a potent spell, I am sure I would die.
“Vic-to-ria, I love you,” I said, hoping she could hear me because I could feel I was getting weaker by the second, and my eyes felt so heavy, and I found it so hard to breathe.
“Oliver, please, don’t give up. I am sorry if I dragged you into this mess, and I know this is all my fault.”She declared, and I smiled even if I was in too much pain because I felt so glad that she heard me.
“Don’t blame yourself, Victoria; none of this was your fault,” I said in between my moans, and I tried my best to flutter my eyes because if ever I died, I wanted Victoria’s face to be the last thing I see.
I raised my hand because I wished to hold her hand, but I saw their leader pull her towards his car; he heaved her frame. I could see how Victoria fought to get away from his hold, but he was strong, and I could tell his years of experience in battle made him invincible, I know Victoria is powerful, but her training wasn’t enough.
“Oliver, don’t worry, I will come back for you; just promise me one thing, don’t give up, okay?” I heard Victoria’s voice, and God knows how much I wanted to be near her, feel her touch, and kiss her sweet lips.
“I love you so much, and I will never let them kill you; please wait for me, Oliver.” I could hear her pleading, but I could no longer keep my eyes open, and I found it so hard to use my head to communicate with her.
My eyes shut, and I could hear the screeching of the tires, and I realized they had taken my woman away from me, and I felt so defeated as I tried to heal myself. I was groaning in pain, and I wondered what was wrong why I couldn’t find my healing power. I was writhing in pain, and I realized I had lost so much blood, and I could not even open my eyes or move my fingers.
“Don’t shoot him again, Carl; our boss already left, the fun is over, and I could tell Prize is dying, and we don’t need him. We better leave now if you don’t want to get punished later..” I heard one of them say, and the defeating silence that followed made me realize I was alone; the enemies had left me, and they had Victoria with them, and I could feel the tears trickling on my face before I totally lost consciousness.
