The Alpha And His Beautiful Monster - Chapter 128
Victoria’s POV
“You better stop crying now, Victoria, because your tears would be useless because I am sure by this time Oliver is already dead. He can’t stop his heart from shutting down because of the silver bullets that hit his body.” I heard Tim say as he drove the car far away from the place where they ambushed us, I could feel my eyes were swollen, and I could feel the pain of losing Oliver, and there was an emptiness I felt deep inside me, and I know without him I will never be whole again.
“How could you let this thing happen, Tim? How could you allow him to shoot the man I love.” I said in between my sobs, and I saw him look at me in the rearview mirror before he returned his focus on the road; I could tell he was driving away from Zenith. I wondered how’s Lana doing right now, and I wished she was okay and she found a hiding place where the wolves couldn’t touch her and her family.
“I am not sorry it happened to Oliver, Victory; if he didn’t show up at the Academy, I could have you as my girlfriend.” He responded, and I could feel the bitterness in his voice.
“You know how I felt about you, Tim; I always wanted you to be my friend,” I said, and he shook his head.
“I know you are only lying to me, and you don’t want to tell me now that you have loved me too because of him, which is why I hated Oliver so much.” He said, and I couldn’t believe the Tim I knew was gone.
“I couldn’t believe you turned out to be like this, I felt so happy when I realized you are alive, but right now, I don’t know what I feel anymore,” I responded, and he chuckled.
“I know you will hate me for ordering my men to kill the love of your life, and I am sorry for hurting you, Victory, but it was nothing compared to the humiliation I felt every time you rejected me and for all the times you turned down my invitation every time I invited you to go on a date with me.” He said.
And I bit my tongue to stop myself from talking back to him since I realized it would be useless to beg him because his mind was now close; he wasn’t the Tim I used to know anymore, or he was only hiding his true colors ever since we were young.
“Do you know that I am having second thoughts right now? I don’t want to give you to the black wolf, but I don’t want to have a death wish because I know he will hunt me down the moment he learns I kept you for myself.” He declared as he looked at my reflection in the mirror, and I averted his gaze.
“I am so in love with you, Victoria, and the moment I resurrected after the hybrid bit me, I realized I got my chance to have you even for a while. I could feel hour love for me, Victory, and when you asked me to pick you up at your house during the beach party, I knew right then you liked me too, and if not for Oliver, I am sure we are now a happy couple.” Tim added.
“I will protect you with my mage magic, but I didn’t realize all this time you were also hiding a deadly secret, and when I found out you were a werewolf after my transition, I felt so relieved even if I was pissed when I found out I turned into a monster.” He continued.
“And you don’t need to worry about the black wolf anymore because we will hide in a faraway place where no werewolves could find you, Victory, but Oliver made a show, and he stole you away from me.” He said with anger in his voice.
“And now that he is dead, I finally have you, and I think I need to make a decision next, something that will benefit both of us.” He said, and I could feel the excitement in his voice while I felt like I was dying inside because of the grief I feared of losing Oliver, but I won’t accept his death yet unless I could see his lifeless body.
If he died, I am sure I would be a living dead. I am sure I will spend the rest of my life grieving, I could feel the tears streaming down my face, and I couldn’t believe this was happening to us, we felt so happy yesterday, and I know having regrets can never turn back the time, and all I need to do is think of a way to escape from Tim.
I wiped my tears with the sleeve of my shirt, and I realized I needed to stop crying because tears could never help me bring back Oliver. I need to be strong to face my enemies, and being weak will only make me lose; I already lost Oliver, and I needed to go back and save him.
I concentrated, and I called on my fairy magic, and I tried to look behind Oliver’s car without craning my neck or turning my head. I smiled when I could see the vehicles of his fellow hybrids trailing us, and I felt so happy that I was able to use my magic without asking anyone’s help; I realized I needed to think about how to use it on Tim, and knowing he is a mage made me feel reluctant to use my magic on him. Still, I needed to try, or I could never get away from him.
I tried manipulating his head, but I could tell he put an invisible barrier between us, and I could feel
my energy drained because no matter how many times I tried to control his mind, I failed, and I ended up dozing off; when he finally stopped the car, I abruptly opened my eyes, and I realized I had fallen asleep for a long time since it is already night time.
I could tell their hideout was inside a mountain because we were on the side of a hill, and the entire place was so dark, and the only light I could see was the light coming from his car.
“I am sorry, Victory, but I needed to tie you,” Tim said.
“Timothy, I am begging you, don’t do this, please!” I begged, and I felt so defeated when I saw him shake his head.
“Don’t worry, Victoria; I know you are tired from today’s incident, and I will give you time to mourn, but only for tonight, tomorrow night, you need to get ready for me; I need to claim my prize for capturing you.” He said as he secured my wrists with handcuffs, and I wanted to fight him, but he was right, I felt so weak because of the pain of being separated from Oliver, and the best thing I could do was obey his command.
I would rest a little, but when everyone was sleeping, I would find my way to escape, and I could stop feeling thrilled as he dragged me out of the car; I needed to follow him, so he would not think I was planning an escape.
I could feel the chilly air right away, and I felt glad I was a werewolf, or else I would be shivering. We walked towards the forest while I could feel Tim’s men are following behind us, and I could hear the outcry of the nocturnal animals, while I could also hear the howling of wolves, and I am sure they were Tim’s pack members.
His men were silent, and I could tell they were communicating through their heads. I felt glad because I didn’t want to hear the voice of Carl, the one who shot Oliver, and I could feel the boiling anger from deep inside my core; I wished to shoot him with the same gun he used on my fiance, and I couldn’t wait to take my revenge on them.
Because of my werewolf abilities, I could hear the laughter from a distance, and I could tell right away they were celebrating my captivity. I am sure someone came ahead of Tim to inform the rest of his pack members that they got me.
Tim was silent as he held and assisted me in walking, and I could feel his concern for me, but I am now angry with him because he was the one who ordered Carl to pull the trigger and shoot my beloved fiance.
The moment we reached their camp, I could see many hybrids; some of them were in their human form surrounding the bonfire and seemed like they had a barbecue party, and when they realized our presence, they all stood up and looked in my direction. I could; feel my entire body felt so weak as I tried to lower my head because I didn’t want to see them celebrating while I was in deep pain and my heart was bleeding.
“I am sorry, my queen, I know you grew up in luxury, but right now, you need to sleep in a tent,” Tim said as he brought me into a large tent. My eyes widened when I saw cages inside with a prisoner in each enclosure, and I wondered who are the captives, and I was shaking my head when he pulled me towards the empty cage.
“I don’t want to do this to you, Victoria, but I know what is playing in your head right now; you wanted to flee and go back to Zenith and look for Oliver even if he was already dead.” He added as he removed the handcuffs from my hands and opened the cell for me; I tried to resist, but Tim was stronger than I was, and I could feel my tears dripping from my eyes as he pushed me hard, and I stumbled inside the iron cell feeling so alone.
