The Alphas Princess novel Chapter 22

Cerberus

"I have to get to her." I growled to my master whilst still pacing the gates. He nodded at me in understanding. "Because you love her." He said raising an eyebrow. He said it with such conviction as though not even possibly a question. I snarled and stopped pacing and turned a head to him, the other two remained focused on the ground. "No!" I barked. He stared as though waiting for me to continue. "My spawn! she's carrying my seed. Shouldn't I be allowed to raise my pup to guard the gates like I'd done for so long." Hades nodded his head in agreement. I knew he couldn't argue with that. Running the underworld is a little more challenging with nobody guarding the gates anyone can get in or out potentially. I remembered the She-wolfs face so perfectly when I saw it. Warm deeply colored skin, dark teasing green eyes, with a waterfall of black waves coming down from her head. She was no doubt beautiful and something about her seemed a little more familiar than a one night stand. "Fine!" Hades snapped to me breaking my thoughts away from the she-wolf carrying my seed. "You have my pardon to go." Hades huffed and wandered back through the gates. As the gates slammed a black flame consumed them till they disappeared. Best way to guard it is to hide it. I shook my center head and took off following the scent of honey and lavender.

Isra's POV

I laid on my side in dry blood awaiting Drake to come "play" with me more. Pulling my hair, stomping my face or hitting my swollen belly sheltering my growing pup. I reminisce to the terrifying shadow creature that came to us that night. I felt so taken back by it i felt so warm and comforted by its deep haunting voice. I heard a growl from behind me. I was terrified by it. Too afraid to open my eyes fearing it would be Drake. The growling stopped and I looked up over my shoulder and saw him. "Blake" I purred to him. He looked so different. He was pale. So ghostly pale and his eyes were pure red like Blades. "He hurt my pup" His voice shook with anger. Flames began flickering around his feet. I found the strength to pull myself up and grab his face. He suddenly began to stare at me. The flames settled and vanished. I was seduced by his eyes and felt our mate bond burning with the touch. I was so weak but Tari was obviously excited. I felt her kicking me and I huffed in discomfort. He reached his hand to my stomach "Settle down pup." His voice was so firm, deep and strong. I felt a dampness between my legs. Tari didn't move an inch. "That is certainly your pup." I managed a weak smile. "This Drake bastard what has he done to you?" He kept his hand rested on my belly. I couldn't look in his eyes anymore i lowered my head. He grabbed my chin and turned me to face his menacing gaze. "If you don't want to tell me I can certainly ask my pup." He whispered to me. "No don't put Tari through that." I pleaded. I moved my lips to his and began to remember everything Drake did starting from the night he had be locked in this prison. "I will kill this foolish creature. He dare not be called a wolf nor a man." I noticed my body felt hot from that kiss. It was a different hot from my heat phase. This felt painful but I liked it more than I should. Suddenly I noticed all my pain had ceased and I was no longer spilling blood.

I heard the door open and Drake sauntered in whistling smelling strongly of whiskey. "Who the fu-" he stopped as he saw the Blake look alike cross his arms around me and then flames started at our feet and I felt us being pulled away.
