Alpha's Surrogate

Alpha’s Surrogate Chapter 49

49. We

More than twenty vampires stormed out of the Vampire Fort, passing the King and Alpha as if they were nothing more than a fierce wind. Their speed was impressive. Alfred and Xavier made their way back into the safety of the Fort, where every terrified face witnessed their King in a full blown rage. His eyes had turned a dark blood red color, which was generally the consequence of blood lust, however in this case His Highness was currently dealing with the fallout from the betrayal of three of his trusted people.

The vampires who had been notified about the unexpected trespassing of werewolves on their enclave had been asked to notify the emergency medical personnel of their impending arrival. Only a small number of designated individuals had been dispatched to apprehend the traitors and invaders. The rest of the medical staff had been waiting for the unexpected patient’s arrival. When the Alpha walked into the corridor all of the vampires lost their s**t. Was the Luna hurt? That was absolutely terrible news! A werewolf had been attacked on the vampire’s enclave, that could mean that they faced an impending war.

This was particularly worrisome with the aura that her mate had been emanating.

How could this werewolf’s aura be so powerful and terrifying? Yes, they were distinct species, but the mythical community had a way of affecting each other at times. That was precisely what had occurred to them, their Instincts demanded that they comply. Their guilt had made them tremble as the young she-wolf had been injured while they were supposed to be protecting her.

As the vampires bowed their heads, Xavier and the King entered. However this time, it was out of terror rather than respect. Could it be that the Alpha’s intimidating aura had been caused by his injured mate? Understanding the mating bond was not everyone’s cup of tea. The Alpha, who was walking beside the King, was filled with so many emotions that it had turned him into a beast capable of killing someone at the slightest provocation. His emerald eyes were locked on his woman’s fainted figure as a rumbling growl emerged from his chest.

Everyone’s eyes widened in horror as they passed through the corridor and entered a large room that was filled with physicians. One of the Doctors who had been standing between them noticed the blood dropping on the white tiles from Kiara’s leg. In an instant, the tranquil expression on his face had changed into a frown.

“Bring a bed right away! This woman is having a miscarriage! We need to stabilize her!” The Doctor announced to his staff. Xavier, who had been gently placing his wife on the bed, froze in place and stared in horror at the Doctor.

“Miscarriage?!” He growled, walking closer to him. The Doctor stepped back in fear.

“Xavier,” Alfred instantly placed a hand on the Alpha’s shoulder, who looked like he was about to rip the Doctor’s throat out for uttering something ridiculous. Alfred turned to face the Doctor, gesturing him to continue speaking. He bowed to both of the high-ranking men before continuing.

“I’m sorry, but it’s true, she’s having a miscarriage,” the Doctor said, turning his attention to the bed. He moved his palm softly over Kiara’s stomach.

“Why did you let your wife shift when she was carrying a pup?” He inquired, his gaze drawn to Xavier’s pale face and wide green eyes. He had no idea Kiara was pregnant. His mind had gone completely blank and his senses had left him. Everything around him had faded, leaving only his fainted bleeding female on the bed. He couldn’t hear the Doctor’s request to leave the room. The Vampire King took the Alpha’s arm and pulled him out of the room so that the physicians could do their work.

All of Xavier’s senses crashed into consciousness when the door closed behind him blocking Kiara from his sight. He rushed to the window where he could view the progress of her treatment. The iron bar around the window rattled and appeared to be breaking due to Xavier’s strong grasp on them. Alfred had been keeping a careful eye on him. This was not what he had hoped for. For the first time in his life, the King had been gullible.

What the hell had happened to cause things to turn out this way? Xavier had never forgotten the instant he had first seen her. Her lovely smile, that she had given him before leaving the room asking him not to be late, flashed before his eyes. Xavier’s hand trembled as he experienced an unexpected emotion deep within him. What exactly was it? Fear? Fear of losing her? His entire body was sweating profusely, he had been taking deep and fast breaths in an attempt to keep Dean at bay. The term “miscarriage” had shaken the Alpha and his wolf to their core.

“Didn’t you know about her pregnancy?” Alfred inquired, his gaze drawn in by the other man’s emotions, who had just learned of the loss of his unborn child. He’d never seen Xavier in this state before.

“She never told me,” he said, slamming the window, while gritting his teeth, and letting out his

fury.

“If I had known she was pregnant, I would never have permitted her to shift! I would have kept her close to me if I had known. If she’d told me…” The Alpha paused, recalling David’s bride Karina’s remark as he returned his gaze to Kiara. Karina had pointed to Kiara’s belly, indicating that she was pregnant, but the young she-wolf had politely declined. Maybe Kiara hadn’t even realize she was pregnant, because if she had she wouldn’t have shifted, putting their baby at risk.

Xavier rubbed his face with his hand then turned to Alfred, feeling like the biggest i***t in the world. After her heat and their mating, there had been a good possibility that she’d be pregnant. Some she-wolves become pregnant within two or three days of their heat. But he hadn’t considered any of that.

“Things might have been different if I had realized she could be pregnant so.soon,” Xavier hammered his hand against the wall again. Alfred took a deep breath and approached him.

“It shows you weren’t waiting for her to become pregnant. I thought you were worried about your unborn child because you picked this young lady specifically to have a baby, but it appears you are more concerned about her,” the King pointed out noticing the Alpha’s stunned expression.

her to become pregnant? Why had he not anticipated her pregnancy when he had brought her into his life for just that purpose? Wasn’t she just his surrogate? Why was he so enraged at seeing her in this condition? Why did he care more about her than his unborn pup, who was somewhere between life and death? He blinked,
