Scarred Alphas by Norisha May
Chapter 66

Is she...is she really saying what I think she is saying?

That can't be...I think back

on the past month and realize...that my period has been late...how stupid can I be?! How did I not real

Oh my-no...this can't be!

Kanda sees the panic on my face.

"What is it?"

"I...no...I can't..."

Not now. Not while I am in here.

"Did you not suspect it at all?" She asks.

"No! I...I've been so out of touch with myself lately. I...I just can't imagine it."

Is this really...real?

I mean...how dumb am I? I know how babies are made so how stupid can I really be?! How did I not think that having constant s*x with Colt would not result in this? Not once did I give protection a thought. I am not sure he even thought about it either. We both have complete chapters for free.I am in deep shock. I am not sure I am ready for this, actually, I AM NOT rea

My thoughts are suddenly consumed by Lauren and how much she wanted to have a child. How she didn't But...what am I going to do? I am in this place...fighting. I even have a fight tonight.

This can't be good for...the baby.

It is so weird to think this. To think that there is a tiny thing growing inside of me.

It feels so...surreal.

I have to get out of here! Now more than ever, I need to get out. But how?

this blissful little bubble. Like two idiots. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net. Visit FindNovel.net to read the this, to have a...baby. I can't even imagine myself right now going through that.

get to live her dream because of my own mate, or rather the man that was supposed to be my mate.

I can't keep waiting and hoping that Colt will come for me. What if they never do? What if they never fine where I am? What if I die in that damn arena before they can find me?

No. I can't just leave it to someone else.

I find myself looking around. I don't know why or what for but I just am. Unable to see anything that can help, I sit back down but continue to try. My hands slide up to the mask on my eyes. I pull on it but it is tightly stuck on me yet it doesn't hurt anymore. I touch the sides where the bolts are.

"Kanda. What do you think would happen if I ripped this mask off of my face?"

She looks surprised at the question.

"I am not sure. I assume it would be painful."

"Yeah, but do you think I could survive it?"

"Well...I don't know. But with your super healing, it is a huge possibility that you would. That mask does not seem to be silver so your wounds would heal fast. "Unfortionetly not the bone."

I mutter.

I sigh.

It's not like that is going to help much anyway. I can't use this damn power on command.

What is wrong with me? Why can't I use it like I should? Is it normal? I remember Honora saying something about my powers. Could her magic help?

My eyes go down to my stomach remembering that I am...might... be pregnant.

I am in and out of thoughts throughout the day. That is until I hear an unwelcoming voice.

Without thinking, I get up and rush to the corner behind Maribel who again all day sleeps under her blanket, away from the bars.

Ezra and the witch walk in with a few guards greeting them.

I stay away from the bars, close to the wall that is connected to the latrine. It is as far as I can be from him.

There is no way that he won't recognize me if he sees me from close.

"This is entertainment!

Maybe we should build one of these too. Use it for punishment instead of just killing. What do you think, Sienna?"

Hearing him talk about killing makes my blood boil.

He killed Lauren. He killed my sister. And he is just a few feet away from me unaware of who I am. If these bars were not there, I would dismember him right now. "That is a clever idea, my love." The witch-Sienna-says.

Love? So they are screwing each other.

His eyes are set on Kanda. "I want her. a warrior like her in my army would do some serious damage."

"Maybe you could negotiate with Alpha Zao?" The woman says.

"Maybe..." He turns around and now stares at the direction of the fighting pit.

"Imagine it...Sienna. Imagine my brother fighting in here every single day with no hope of ever getting out until one day he is finally killed.

All this while he sees Casseopea next to me by my side."

"By your side? I thought you wanted her dead?" The woman asks.

"I...do. I want them to suffer first. I'd make her my whore until I am tired of her. She'd watch him fight for his life while he would watch her being mine." "Yours?"

"You know what I mean!" He snaps at her.

The delusion on this man.

He is so poisoned by hate and anger. I can relate because I feel the same towards him.

I watch them walk away.

"What is it with you?" Kanda asks.

I think she has been watching me this whole time.

"You know that man?" She asks.

I sit down and nod. "It's a long story."

"Well, it's not like we don't have all day and night here doing nothing."

"Alright, alright."

I tell her my story.

Of course, she is shocked but also now understands my situation.

"So what am I supposed to do now? How can I fight in there knowing that...I am-"

"Just like you have been doing all this time." She cuts me off. "You have to fight, there is no other choice. So you do what you need to do to survive."

I know she is right. But it is so hard now knowing that it is not just about me anymore. My body doesn't just belong to me now. It is housing a living being that relies on me to keep it safe. Kanda suddenly points at Honora who walks towards our cell. She looks at the guard near us before she speaks.

"I had to come see you before I left." Her voice is low.

"You are leaving?"

"Yes. But I couldn't leave just yet. Listen...I told you this before. I could sense a blockage inside of you and I am afraid that it might have been my doing." "What?"

"It has to do with your mother."

"My...mother?"

She nods. "I can't explain right now but, I am leaving you with something. Keep it on you, it will help with your power but it is only temporary."

She gets close to the bars and whispers. "Choke me."

"What?" I am confused.

"Do it."

"You have some weird kinks."

I say and then I rush in and take her by the n*ck but I make sure that I really don't hurt her.

Guards quickly move and pull her away but not before she puts something in my hand.

Hiding it, I put my hand down.

"I'm fine! I am fine!" Honora pushes the guards away.

"Do not get close to the prisoners!" The guard says.

"Yes! I got it!"

She pats her dress and then walks out but outside, she is suddenly apprehended.

"The Alpha wishes to see you." A guard says.

"Me? Why?" Honora panics.

They don't respond and drag her away.

No! Why are they taking her!? Oh no! She's my only hope!

"Kanda!"

"I know." She nods watching as Honora is dragged away.

"What is happening?"

"I don't know." She says.

I sit on the ground with my hands covering my face. I feel hopeless. I then open my eyes to look at what is in my hand.

A golden triangular pendulum. Like an upside-down pyramid on a golden chain. The pendulum has tiny white opals in the middle of each triangle face.

I put it around my n*ck and hide it under my clothes. Immediately I feel it warm up. It is a cozy feeling, not painful at all. The rest of the day, that is how it feels. I wonder how will it work. She didn't really give me instructions. An hour passes and we are finally taken to the barracks.

"Kanda, should I use something sturdier to protect my stomach?"

"No. Don't make it obvious."

Sheril-who has been added to the fight-looks at me with confusion. "Why would you use something heavier? You have been doing good with what you have been using already. Stick to it."

I sigh and nod.

Maribel is also here. She wears the same rags we always wear and has that huge sword she had yesterday.

"How strong are you?" I ask her.

"As strong as you." She says.

"Huh? Interesting."

"But the longer I go without blood, the weaker I am." She explains.

"So you are a half-vampire." Sheril says. "I had my suspicions."

We sit and talk but I can't really get into the conversation much. The worst thing about this all is the waiting.

Finally, the guards arrive. It is like a double-edged sword. I don't want to fight but at the same time, the excruciating wait is over.

"Nubian Pharoah and the Persian Princess are up."

If I am honest, I have been lucky that all this time it has been double teaming. With Kanda on my side, I am sure we'll win.

We walk out and up to the arena where just like before, people cheer and the announcer, presents us.

"There they are." I say looking up at Zao with Ezra and Sienna.

"Look at them. If only I could fly. I'd kill them all." I mutter.

Kanda chuckles. "Use that anger for this fight. How about I hold them down and you take them out?"

"Let's make it as painless as possible. I don't enjoy this killing."

She nods.

We stand there waiting while the announcer continues to talk.

We wait and wait some more looking towards the opening of the second barracks where our opponents are supposed to come from but no one walks out.

"Oh no! Ladies and gentlemen. Two of our favorites will be going head-to-head! What curveball!"

"What?!" I look at Kanda who looks at me with shock.

"What does he mean?"

Kanda and I both look around at the people who stare at us as they cheer.

"No...no!"

"We...we are fighting against each other..." Kanda says.

She takes a few steps back and gets in position.

"No! Kanda! We can't!"

She has a serious expression and looks ready to fight. "I am sorry. I cannot lose." She mutters.

"K-Kanda..."

"Ready yourself!" She shouts.

My lips quiver but I do as she says. I get into a defensive stand.

"Fight me, Casseopea. Fight me with all that you have and don't hold back!"
