Chapter 225

Alfreds POV

After Cracula took her head, he snapped his fingers, and her body burst into flames. Now it was Hunter's turn to be dealt with. I would not have given Shannon such an easy death. However, since Dracula is here, he has every right to deal with his people. I can not interfere with that. He has the right to deal with his people how he sees fit. I looked over, and Hunter was still sitting nonchalantly in the chair that was there. Like he knew something I did not. Would Dracula really betray me? It was then that Dracula spoke up.

" What do you have to say for yourself, Hunter?"

" Nothing, my lord."

" If I don't get the white wolf, there will be others that will try to get her and use her for their bidding."

" You have committed the ultimate sin by going after the white wolf."

" Fuck you."

He then turned to me.

" I will accept whatever punishment you have in store for him."

Good, that meant that I could give him any punishment I wanted. I wanted him to fight me for what he did to Vanessa. The bruises have healed, but the picture of her bruised face is still in my mind. If it had been one of my pack members who had harmed her, they would have been whipped to death. They have no reason to touch her in any way, shape, or form.

" I sentence you to death by combat."

Vanessa spoke up.

" Alfred, please don't do this, just behead him and be done with him."

" No, my love, he will pay for what he has done to you."

She did not understand that it was for honor that I was going to fight him. He needed to know that I would defend my family at all costs, and especially that she was pregnant again. Later, we will have an ultrasound to see how the baby is doing. I'm hoping for a girl. Little did I know that I would be regretting that statement. Hunter was let out of the cage, and then everything was pushed back. I then shifted to my wolf. He wanted to do this. Hunter did not stand a chance against Leon. He was more pissed at him than I was. How that was possible, I had no idea. He hit him in the face with a huge paw. He had claw marks down his face. He was bleeding profusely. He then hit him with another huge paw across his back. He dropped to his knees.

He was coughing up blood and writhing in pain. It was time to end him. Leon then ripped his head off. Dracula snapped his fingers, and again Hunter started to burn. This was over. Vanessa had fainted from the shock of the battle. Also, I believed from everything that she has been through. She needed time to recover from everything. Since Hunter and Shannon are dead, we can rest for a while. I'm sure there will be other threats; however, those were for another day. Dracula and Cane both approached me.

" We will see you in the hall in the morning."

" Yes, I will see you in the morning."

" Vanessa, come, we need to go find the doctor and do that ultrasound."

We found her already in our room waiting for us. She looked at Vanessa.

" You look pale."

"I'm tired from the journey and fighting."

" I believe you are."

"Lie down on the bed."

Vanessa lay down on the bed. She lifted her shirt, and the doctor started his examination. He started on the lower part of her stomach, and to my surprise, there were four babies in her stomach. She is going to be like her mother and give birth to a litter of pups instead of just one at a time.

" Your majesty, I believe there are four girls."

Vanessa sat up and was shocked. She then fainted, and I was stunned. I waited to try and find something to say, but I could not. We had Junior, and he was growing up fast. He was starting to walk. He would be sent to nursery school soon. There, he will begin to receive an education. Vanessa was going to be busy. I would have to hire more people to help in the nursery. We were going to have four daughters at once. Vanessa will have to be careful. This time, I intended that she would be on strict bed rest. Also, she will only be allowed to exercise and practice fighting. I knew that her wolf could not be let out. Would her powers grow because of the pups? There were so many questions that I needed to be answered, and also what to do for her if she should need anything. A woman carrying that many pups was different, that was for sure.

It is heard of, but usually it's a rough pregnancy, and I could already see it was starting to take a toll on her. She had already fainted and was pale.

" Doctor, what do we need to do to keep her healthy?"

" First of all, she needs to continue to take the anti-nausea medication, and then she needs to eat several times a day."

That is something that I will make sure of. She will eat several limes a day. I called for Nina.

" Will you please get her some food and water?"

" Yes, your majesty."

She left the room and returned some time later with a plate of food. She had heaped it up full of fruits, vegetables, and meat. I knew that when Vanessa woke up, she would eat well. I don't know when the last time she ate was. She has been tending to me and dealing with everything else. I had everyone leave the room. I then went to the bathhouse. I made sure that the water was fresh. I then stoked up the fires underneath it and made sure it was hot. She needed a hot bath to relax. I undressed while she was sleeping. She woke up before I could be done.

" What are you doing?"

" What does it look like?"

"I'm undressing you, and then I'm going to carry you to the bathhouse and bathe you."

" Thats sweet."

She went to kiss me, and I stuffed a grape into her mouth, and she started to eat it. Even with a grape in her mouth, she was still trying to talk.

" First, you are going to sit here and eat this whole plate."

I was determined to make her eat. She actually didn't complain, nor did she fight me. Instead, she ate her food. She finished the plate. I was very happy that she finished the whole plate.

" Now that you have finished eating, I'm going to finish undressing you."

When I took her pants off, I gently slid the pants down her leg. When I looked up, she had lust in her eyes. The doctor did not say anything about no sex. I knew we both needed it.
