Chapter 32

Alex’s POV

I look outside of the castle and I almost fall from the way that everything has been completely cleaned and decorated with pink and blue flowers. 

the middle of the gates has red roses set up in a circle as they welcome whoever walks inside of the castles doors. 

I look at the servants slowly stop what they are doing as they notice me standing in the front of the castles doors and I can't help but feel satisfaction as they lower their gaze in respect. 

"so this is how they celebrate the welcoming of a royal one." my father says as he looks at me and then laughs.

I sigh as I start to feel irritated at him "why are you laughing?" I ask as he continues to laugh.

"it's just you have always said you wanted to have a child around your late twenties and look at you having you first child before your twenties." he puts a hand over his stomach as I cross my arms.

"whatever." I bite my lower lip.

suddenly he stops and then looks at me. "you need to take care of that child of yours. you know that right."

I look at him and then at the servants who have begun to continue to do their work. "I know that."

silence fills the air for a moment and he says in a serious tone "Alex I’m serious, you and Blaise are the first royals to have both of the marks working. that child could be more powerful than the both of you put together. people will try to kill you before its born."

I look at my father as he looks at the flowers in the most serious expression I have ever seen. the image of his serious face makes me catch my breath.

if my father is making such a serious expression that means he really does believe that something might happen to me and my child. the grip on my fist tightens and I clench my teeth as I try to breathe in and out.

"I’m not trying to make you angry Alex" he says looking at me with sorrow in his eyes as he tries to smile "I’m worried about my daughter and her son."

"what are scenarios you imagine?" I ask as he sighs.

"best case scenario that child of yours comes out a normal wolf with a good amount of strength to lead in his time." he sighs again as he looks at the floor "worst case scenario... that child comes out with a third mark."

I look at him immediately "is that even possible?" I ask as he looks at me and leans against the wall. "I don't know, I mean at this point anything could happen."

"what exactly could that mean though I mean... its not.." I’m interrupted by the sound of Blaise’s voice as he walks towards me and hugs me from behind.

"calm down wolf" I hear my dad say looking at Blaise who is glaring at him silently.  "shes my blood, I won't take her from you."

I sigh "when is this going to wear off?"

"what's going to wear off?" my dad asks as he looks at me.

"well the possessiveness." I say as Blaise kisses my neck.

my dad looks at me confused and then at Blaise "you still haven’t told her?" 

I turn around to look at Blaise and I push myself away from him. "told me what?"

my dad just looks at Blaise and then at me and swallows hard. "well you see... that part of him should have been gone a long time ago... the only thing that actually changes in him is his amount of power and strength."

Blaise just stares at me as he leans against the wall and smiles deviously. 

"I don’t understand." I say looking at them confused "what the hell are you talking about. can you please speak proper english?"

"well... your boyfriend there has his powers awakened and with that his attitude and his wolves attitude mixed just like yours." my dad says pointing at Blaise.

"you mean how Ruth disappeared?" I ask looking at him confused.

"yeah except that their character mixes with yours... that's sort of why he’s been acting like that." he looks at Blaise who looks at him with boredom in his eyes. "I’m guessing his wolf wasn't much of talker but he was possessive alright."

Blaise rubs the back of his neck as he looks at me and then at my dad "no he was a talker and pretty much an asshole when he wanted to be."

"does this happen to everyone?" I ask. "to every werewolf?"

"yeah pretty much. I actually used to be a bit more wild back in my days before I met your mom." my dad stops. "I mean my mate not.."

"I know" I say looking at him "I don’t consider the other one my mother remember?"

"ugh ... yeah" he says as he looks behind him. "it seems that the party is about to begin. you two should go inside of the castle and make sure you stay inside... ill be in charge in charge of the security if that's alright with the both of you."

"is it weird that I want to see that woman scream with her blood in m hands?" I as looking at them curious "am I going crazy? because that thought is very appealing for some reason."

my dad looks at me with an expression that says 'weirdo'.

Blaise just smiles as he walks closer to me and wraps his arms around my waist. "that does sound appealing."

"you two are the royalty of the psychopaths ill tell you that." my dad says as Blaise and I laugh. "you guys aren't serious right?"

"unfortunately I am" I look at him "but I won't... her blood stinks and I don’t want to touch it."

he sighs "you hate her that much?"

"no" I say looking at him look at me surprised "unfortunately I know shes my mother by blood and a quick death is what id be willing to give her..." I smile "I’m actually being pretty nice" 

"if you say so" he says walking away "make sure Alex doesn't leave you side, Blaise."

Blaise just nods as he pulls me inside with him. "Blaise, have you changed?" 

he turns to look at me and smiles "I've always been like this... I’ve just been to weak to show it."
