Alpha Dominic
Chapter 105

Bethany's

POV

Dominic tried to call Dwayne but he wasn't able to reach him on phone. I could see the fear and panic in his eyes as well, I had to wonder if he is truly worried about her welfare, or maybe he is just feeling guilty because he now knows that I was right after all. I told him something was wrong with her, I told him I could feel her pains, but he thought I was just making it up, he even accused me of trying to sabotage the mission. Why the hell did I listen to him, why didn't I just follow my gut feeling and go after Ciara. "What if we are too late, what if he hurt her before he left?" I asked him in a daze as the tears slipped down my cheeks. I don't know if the girls can handle another bad news in the family, I can't even think about it, I can't begin to imagine what I would say to Graciela, I don't know what I would do, what the hell am I going to do?

"You need to calm down my love. I'm sure she is fine, I'll not let anything happen to her, I promise you. Look on the bright side, we actually caught them, I'm sure he wasn't expecting me to be here, he wouldn't have done anything to her because he had plans of coming back home to her. Doctor Fred would pick her up immediately he gets back..."

"What, where the hell is he, I thought you said he is the pack doctor, where did he go, when would he be back, he needs to come back right now, he needs to check on Ciara, and Harriet, and, and..."

"Calm down my love, I didn't say that doctor Fred is away, in fact, he is right there now checking on Harriet and Alaina. What I meant to say is that when doctor Fred returns to the pack with us, he would check on Ciara immediately. Just hang in there my love, your friend would be okay, I promise my love, I won't let anything to happen to her. I'm so sorry for not listening to you, I was just so stupid and selfish. I only wanted to complete this mission, I only wanted to keep everyone safe, I never knew it would turn out this way, I never meant for anyone to get hurt, I'm so sorry my love, I'm so sorry. I'll make him talk, I promise you, I'll make him talk and then I'll make him pay." He told me in a comforting tone, trying to get me to calm down, but I wasn't buying it. It could have been me, what if I was in Ciara's shoes, what if I was chosen by this guy, would he have hurt me as well, would I have been the one in pain right now?

Not to mention the fact that he has been doing this crazy stuff for a long time now. First, he sent Graciela on the dangerous mission, he sent her to face Lucas on her own, and look how that turned out, she lost her mom and her life has turned upside down because she now belongs to the Mafia Lord and there is nothing she can do about it. He even made her believe that he was just trying to help her, but that had been a lie, he was just after the mission, he only thinks about this stupid mission, it's all about the miss, it would always be about this mission, this war between him and king Ashford. He is prepared to risk anything as long as it gets him what he wants, and all he wants is victory. He wants to win this war, and he is prepared to do anything, he even sent me on this stupid mission and I would have been kidnapped if he hadn't shown up on time, I can't even begin to imagine what would have happened if they succeeded in taking to king Ashford, I would never have been able to resist him because he is using dark magic to lure women to his bed, I would have let that bastard screw me and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. It's all his fault n someone needs to let him know that he is slowly turning into the very monster that he has been trying a hard to fight. From what I can see right now, there is absolutely no difference between him and king Ashford, they are both selfish and inconsiderate, and if he keeps putting our lives at risk, then he would be offering more moles to king Ashford because nobody will want to stand by him anymore. "It is all on you, Dom. If anything happens to Ciara, it's going to be your fault, yours. You can't keep doing this and expect everyone to be silent about it, you never listen to anyone, you don't care who gets hurt or killed, all you f*****g care about is this stupid war. I could have died out here Dom, Ciara could be dead right now, her mom is dead and Graciela is not coming back home. It's all on you, Dom, it's all on you." I told him amid tears as I took his hands away and made to turn around but he held my hand and pulled me back into his arms, forcing me to look at him. I could see the pain in his eyes, I could tell that he is trying so hard to control his emotions as well.

"Is that what you think about me, Beth?

Do you really think that I'm a selfish bastard who doesn't care about the lives of other people, is that how you truly feel about me?" he let out sadly, looking deeply into my eyes. I think he is trying to get me to take back my cruel words, but I'm not falling for that, not when I'm so pissed off at him. I think this has gone on for too long, I can't let him continue putting our lives in danger, somebody else might just die and I can't take it anymore.

"Yes Dominic, that Is exactly how I feel right now. You are one selfish bastard and I do not want to talk about it anymore, I don't want to talk to you either. I just want to go home and check on Ciara and make sure that she is okay. Gosh, Dominic, If something happens to her, I don't know if I would ever forgive you, I don't know what I would do, I just want to go home right now." I told him firmly before turning to head back to a waiting SUV. I got in and shut the door without taking a second glance at him. I know he just saved my a*s, I also know that he has been fighting this war because of our population, he is fighting for us, trying to save our lives, but I have to just tell him the truth, if he keeps this up, there won't be any lives left to be saved because he would have sent us all to our deaths.

I sat in the back seat of the SUV, waiting for him to come in so we can all head home, but he did not come in so soon. As I said, he takes this war too seriously, he had to do a quick run around the perimeter to make sure that everything is okay, he would never let any of these guys get away. He took a good few minutes before getting into the SUV, I was getting so restless, he was taking so much time, I need to go and check on Ciara, I'm just getting too upset, I need to head back home. I was fuming already when he opened the door and got into the back seat of the SUV with me. He instructed the driver to drive fast, and the driver complied with his order and stepped on the gas pedal, taking us back to the castle. As the SUV see back home, he pulled me into his arms and held me close to his heart, rubbing my back softly.

"It is all on you, Dom. If anything happens to Ciara, it's going to be your fault, yours. You can't keep doing this and expect everyone to be silent about it, you never listen to anyone, you don't care who gets hurt or killed, all you f*****g care about is this stupid war. I could have died out here Dom, Ciara could be dead right now, her mom is dead and Graciela is not coming back home. It's all on you, Dom, it's all on you." I told him amid tears as I took his hands away and made to turn around but he held my hand and pulled me back into his arms, forcing me to look at him. I could see the pain in his eyes, I could tell that he is trying so hard to control his emotions as well.

"I'm sorry Bethany, I never wanted any of this to happen, please forgive me, my love." He pleaded softly, pecking my forehead.

"Let's just get home and make sure she is okay Dom, that is all I care about right now."

"She will be fine." He assured me with his hands still wrapped around me. I lay in his arms, thinking about Ciara, I could remember the pain I felt when I made asking contact with her the other day, I should never have ignored her pains, I could have sent Fiona to even check on her, but I didn't do anything, I just listened to Dominic like a f*****g i***t. Damn, I'm so stupid.

I jumped out of the SUV Immediately after it pulled into Dominic's castle, I ran at top speed, running like my life depended on it. It is a good thing that Dominic was right behind me because when I arrived at the door, it was locked firmly. We tried knocking and banging on the door but there was no response from within. I think he has already informed doctor Fred about Ciara, he arrived a few minutes after us and we all stood outside the door, banging and begging for her to open the door, but there was no response, none at all. We couldn't waste any time, Dominic kicked the door open, granting us access into the room. Immediately the door flung open, we were all hit with the pungent smell of blood, it hit me so hard that I nearly fainted from the impact and I began crying once more as I got filled with fear, dreading what awaits us within that room.

We all ran in at once and we spotted her immediately as she lay sprawled on the floor, bleeding out from the bite mark on her neck. That bastard had placed his mark on her neck, he just bit her like a f*****g vampire, but he did not bother to seal her bite mark with his saliva, he just left her there to bleed to death. For no reason at all, he just wanted her dead and now he has succeeded because I couldn't hear her heartbeat from where I stood, I could not go any closer because I don't want to be the one to replace out that she is dead. I slumped on the spot, crying my heart out, dreading the outcome of the doctor's examination. The doctor was already on her and Dominic was there as well, but I just couldn't bear to look at her, I just can't bear to see her that way. How do I tell her sisters that she was bitten by a werewolf and left for dead.
