Alpha's Second Chance

ENZO

I think we might have or almost. An Alpha from one of the smaller packs closely had called Logan and said his beta may have found something. He had stumbled over a tourist in the human town near their pack, and the tourist had been from Italy. He had been trying to charge a human girl by telling her where he was from.

The Beta had on distance followed him when he left. And had found him walking into an abandoned village where Rouges lived, so he had yet to follow him further. But this is our first real lead on how to find them, and we are now busy putting together warriors to come with us to raid the village and hopefully find them.

ROSE

I woke up today with contractions, and they get stronger all the time, and all I could think was, not now. I tried to hide it at first, but I can't anymore and Mia has been in this room all day, keeping an eye on me. The door opens, and Alpha Carlos comes inside and looks at Mia, who is starting to talk.

"She will give birth tonight for sure. The medicine you put in her water is helping." Mia says, and Carlos smiles evilly.

"Good." He says and leaves.

"What? What you give me." I ask, a little panicked.

"Just something that will make you give birth without you being able to stop it," Mia tells me.

"No! How can you do this? How can you sit there and watch." I cry as a contraction hits.

"Your son will soon be born. Right on this night." She just says and looks at me. "Rose. It will be okay." Noah whispers.

"But I can't, not now, not here," I whisper, trying hard not to cry. I registered that Mia left the room.

"Rose, listen to me. I saw the paper, tonight at midnight, it will be my birthday. You know what will happen." He whispers.

And I do. Anything that was ever found about the true king was that no one and nothing would be able to stop him, nothing at all. I nod my head and try to relax a little, just a few more hours, I tell myself.

"Aah! No..." I almost scream out.

"You need to push," Mia tells me.

I am in labor and in a panic. I don't want Alpha Carlos to take my baby boy.

"No." I sneer between the contractions.

"If you don't, you put both yourself and the baby in danger." She tells me, like, if I don't know that.

"Sis, do it. Don't put yourself in danger. Whatever happens, it will be okay." Noah whispers, and Mia looks at him.

"It is almost midnight." She whispers low.

"I know I can feel it," Noah says.

"Feel what?" I whisper weakly.

"The power of the true king," Mia whispered. And Noah looks at her.

"You know?" He says. And she nods her head.

"After France. I tried to make him stop. But he insisted on finding out how to take the powers of the true king. He found a witch, who says she can do it. But I don't believe her. Every text I found said only one can overrule the true king, the moon goddess. And I know when the time hits midnight, that power will break free, and you will no longer be affected by silver or wolfsbane." She whispers even lower.

“Does he know?” Noah asks and she shakes her head.

"I burned that scroll." She whispers.

"Aah! It hurts." I scream.

"You need to push. I know I have not been a good mother. And I am sorry. I will do my best to keep you both safe until midnight." She whispers, and oddly enough, I believe her.

"Push!" She says as another contraction hits me, and I do as told.

"Good again, when I say so." She says, and I nod my head.

She stands up and opens a basket where there are clean towels that look like

they are warm in some heating bag. And she fine clean blankets.

"For the baby." She says, and I nod my head.

And when a contraction hits again, she is there helping me.

"I can see his head." She says.

"We are almost there. Push." She says again

And I Push for what feels like hours, and then I hear him, my son, crying.

"You did it and he is out, healthy little baby boy." She says as she cuts the cord, puts him into a towel, and

cleans him up as well as she can. Then, I wrapped him in a blanket and gave him to me.

"My precious little boy," I whisper.

The door opens, and Alpha Carlos comes inside. Mia hurries to cover my legs, which I really appreciate.

"Ah, I see he has finally been born." He says, looking at me. And sits down next to

me.

"I knew you could be useful for something else than a good fuck.” He says as he looks at Mia, who looks scared now.

Then he looked at me and, without warning, grabbed my baby from my arms and stood up.

"NO! Please don't take him." I beg.

"You don't need him, I do." Alpha Carlos says.

"Please," I beg, and he just laughs.

But then something happens, and we all look at Noah, who has just broken two of

his chains. And are in the middle of shifting, into a lycan.noveldrama
