Alpha Blake

Chapter 53 Duplicitous Carrie-3

"You have to the count of five to run before I come after you and rip your head off of that conniving

body of yours." Joseph's eyes widen once again in terror, he takes a step back and falls on his behind

as he stumbles on a small root above the earthen ground.

Quickly he stands as he sees Asher near him. "1-" Asher begins to count, he growls and moves

slowly towards him.

Quickly, Joseph turns his body and makes a run for it. "2, 3, 4" Asher shouts his counting as

Joseph makes a run for the forest. Running across, and past many trees. He knows he may be able to

outrun him if he shifts to his lycan form, and as he nears a small creek, he swiftly shifts.

The seconds it takes him to shift is enough for Asher to catch up to him. Tackling him down to the

ground with a big thud as they both scatter on the floor. Turning and tossing against each other.

Both growling loud, Joseph drags his long claws across with force as he tries to hurt Asher on his

jaw, but he moves before he can get him, jumping behind him, giving Joseph no time to act, as he turns

and is met with the hard bite to his head.

Before he can act, Joseph's head flies above the sky, landing by the waters. His body slowly fell to

its knees and fell to the ground.

Asher slowly walks, circling around the decapitated corpse of Joseph. He sneers, and can't help

but let out a whimper and a tear escapes his eyes he reminisces about the happy moments he had with

his dad.

He slowly shifts back to his human form and walks back to meet with Alarick and the rest. His head

hangs low as he exits the forest. The moonlight slowly makes his body noticeable and Elena slowly

places a warm blanket around him. He wraps himself around her. Both allow themselves to cry for the

reality of the loss of their father.

"I should have gone with him that day Ella! It should have been me protecting him that day! I knew

something was off, I should have followed my instincts! I-"

"Shh! Dylan, it's ok. You didn't know. We both didn't know! You can't blame yourself for this. Please

brother! We have to stick together. Promise me, no matter what happens, we will always stick together

and look out for each other! Promise me, brother!?" She cups his face, her cheeks stained with tears

mimicking his own resemblance.

"I promise sister! ALWAYS!!"

She hugs him tight and kisses his cheek. She can taste the saltiness of his sorrow.

"Ella!" Harou runs towards them as he heaves trying to catch his breath.

"Is it true? My princess?" His eyes filled with tears as he runs a hand across his chest. Elena

smiles and walks towards him.

"Harou! Yes. It's true. I'm sorry Harou, my mother is the cause for all this. But I promise you that

Alarick and I will find her and make her pay for this treachery." He nods, closing his eyes.

"I don't care what happens to Carrie. I just want to hold my baby girl. Please, Ella! Where is she?"

He looks at her with a gleam of hope in his eyes. Elena gestures for him to turn and the moonlight hits

the direction of Alarick holding a tiny bundle in his arms. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Harou quickly runs to him, stopping just in time to see a little hand moving about from out of the

small blanket covering her body.

Her tiny eyes were now mildly open, revealing a set of beautiful baby blues like her dad's. A head

full of raven black hair like her mother's.

"May I?" He gestures Alarick, asking for permission as he holds his hands up.

Alarick smiles and hands her over. "Of course! She's yours, Harou."

Harou holds her, a thick knot stuck in his throat as the tears run freely down his cheeks. "Hi, my

beautiful girl! I'm going to take you home to momma. And you will grow to be a strong and beautiful

woman! And I promise I will protect you and cherish you with everything in my power! I love you,

princess! I love you, my beautiful baby girl!" He kisses her cheek as her small hand slowly cups his

cheek. The small gesture makes his heart content, he chuckles lightly and kisses her numerous times.

"Let's go home princess!"
