Chapter 890 – Hidden Desires of the Werewolf King Novel

Filed To Story: Veiled Desires of the Alpha King Novel

Dayson licked his lips nervously. Why was his mouth dry? Talia called him daddy, and he didn’t dislike it. He was a father now.

“That’s it,” Talia encouraged him while placing Violet in Dayson’s hands.

Dayson stood still like a statue, and Violet’s lips twitched.

“Did you see that?” Talia asked. “She smiled because you are holding her.”

“She likes it?”

“Of course, she does. She can feel your love and protectiveness. Do you want to carry her to the hospital?”

Before Dayson could respond, Keith stepped forward. “You shouldn’t carry any weight right after the delivery, Talia. If Alpha doesn’t carry her, I will.”

“I can carry Violet!” Arya volunteered while standing right next to Keith. She was pregnant, but her stomach was not showing yet.

Dayson released a low growl, making Keith and Arya take a step back.

“I will carry MY child,” Dayson snapped while holding Violet closer to his chest.

Now that Dayson looked around the room, it was crowded, and he wanted everyone out.

…

Dayson and Talia stepped out of the packhouse and paused at the sight of the people.

Members of the Shadow Fang pack came to welcome their young Alpha.

People lowered their heads, and no one said a word as Dayson and Talia walked through the path the crowd opened for them.

Dayson held Violet with his left arm while his right one was around Talia, and his heart swelled with pride. That was his mate and his child, and their people were showing respect without being asked. The best part was that he could feel Talia’s emotions. She was happy, and he was happy with her.

Maya, Jaeden, Mindy, Gideon, James, Cornelia, Dawn, George, Keith, Arya, Zina, and Owen walked behind Dayson and Talia in a display of hierarchy.

Talia smiled at the sight of familiar faces, and she allowed positive emotions to wash over her. The joy was nearly tangible, and Talia basked in it.

The pack hospital was completely silent when Dayson and Talia arrived with Violet.

The Alpha couple entered the pack hospital, and Maya, Jaeden, and the others stayed outside because the whole pack was following them, and if they got in, it would cause a mess.

Nurses, doctors, and patients stepped into hallways and stood with their heads lowered.

The only ones who approached Dayson and Talia were Travis and Olivia, who ushered Alpha parents to the examination room.

Olivia beamed while looking at Violet, who was sleeping through the whole weight and length measurements, but Talia didn’t miss the sadness in Olivia’s expression.

“What are you thinking about?” Talia asked Olivia.

“It’s just…” Olivia shook her head. “I am glad things turned out well for you and your baby.” She didn’t want to talk about her miscarriage because of Luis’ violent ways. Her child would be about two years old if things didn’t turn out as they did.

Talia wrapped her arms around Olivia. “I can feel your sadness,” Talia spoke in a low voice, only for Olivia to hear. “I thought you would be happier now that you have a loving mate and a pup on the way.”

Olivia’s body stiffened. “What did you say?”

Talia smiled at Olivia. “Didn’t you have your heat?”

“I did, but…” She turned to Travis. “A pup.”

Travis didn’t get it. “Yes, young Alpha Violet is a pup. She looks healthy, but we should still give her a full checkup.”

“No, that’s not what I was…” Olivia said weakly and pressed her hands against her stomach.

Travis’ brows came together as he realized the meaning behind Olivia’s actions. “Our pup?”

Olivia nodded, and Travis engulfed her in his embrace.

“Don’t worry, Livi. I will take care of you and our pup. You will be a wonderful mother. I won’t allow anyone or anything to harm you…” He spoke in a low voice as Olivia sobbed into his doctor’s coat as happiness and insecurities overwhelmed her.

Talia tugged Dayson to step aside.

‘Let’s give them a moment,’ Talia said to Dayson through their mind link.

Dayson didn’t like this. They came for a checkup, and now the doctor and his mate (aka assistant) were hugging and crying. What kind of a hospital was this? This is not what he is paying them for!

Before Dayson voiced his displeasure, Talia’s voice sounded in his mind again, ‘Olivia has a lot of burden. She was abused and…’

‘I know,’ Dayson grumbled back. He didn’t like to be left to wait, regardless of the reason.

Talia looked at their little bundle of happiness.

“Our pup, Dayson,” Talia said dreamily while gently touching Violet’s forehead.

Violet’s eyes snapped open, and she looked straight at Talia.

“She has blue eyes, like her father,” Talia said, and she knew that Dayson was grinning even though she didn’t look at him. Black hair and blue eyes. Violet resembled Dayson and Talia loved it.

After a few long seconds, Violet’s eyelids became heavy, and she went back to sleep.

“It’s a girl, just how you wanted,” Talia said.

“I would be OK with a boy also. I want us to have five pups. Three girls and two boys.”

Talia blinked at him. “Did you ever see an Alpha family with so many pups?”

“Did you ever see an Alpha family with godly powers? In a way, I agree with Gregory. There are only a few of your kind, and we should do our share to ensure you don’t go extinct, so… five pups. Six sounds even better. How about seven?”

Talia giggled when she realized that Dayson was just thinking about sex.

After Violet’s exam, it was time for Talia’s.

Two nurses came in to help, and even though Travis was only looking at the ultrasound and did above-the-waist tests, Dayson was growling and releasing a menacing aura, so they had to send him out of the examination room to wait.

Dayson couldn’t believe this. They kicked him out! He was the Alpha, damn it!

But Talia said that the longer her objects, the longer it would take, so he went out with an excuse that he needed to handle some important pack-related business.

Talia was glad that Dayson obeyed without destroying the place.

A minute after he left, Violet stirred and was licking her lips, so nurses showed Talia how to breastfeed.

Talia was unsure how Dayson would react because Travis was right there while Talia’s breasts were exposed. It was medical, educational, and nothing sexual or pervy, but Travis was a man, and Dayson was a possessive Alpha, and… it wouldn’t end well.

Dayson was impatient. Why was Talia’s checkup taking so long?

He mind-linked her three times already, and she told him that it was almost done, but that was two “almosts” too many, and he was getting anxious. Was something wrong? It didn’t feel like it because he could sense Talia’s emotions, and she was a bit nervous but mostly happy.

“Is there something I can help you with, Alpha?”

Dayson’s steps halted at the sound of a familiar voice, and he turned to cock an eyebrow at an unwelcome man. It was Tatiana’s obnoxious assistant. Mario. Did he address him as Alpha? What the heck?

Was Tatiana here? What about Maddox? But Mario seemed to be here on his own, and he wore a uniform like a nurse.

“Why are you here?” Dayson grumbled.

The last time Dayson saw Mario was before Talia’s Luna ceremony, which was more than three weeks ago. At that time, Dayson kicked Mario across the hall, which got the human hospitalized, but three weeks was more than enough to recuperate or be transferred to a human-run facility.

Mario paused at Dayson’s hostility. “No need to worry about anything, Alpha. I am one of you now.”

Mario craned his neck, and Dayson’s eyes widened, seeing a mark. How could that be a mark? Mario is human! An annoying one!

“What is that?” Dayson asked while pointing at Mario’s neck.

“THAT is the mark of my mate. It means we belong together. I assume you know that, considering you wear Talia’s mark.”

Dayson’s brows came together. Sure, there were cases of werewolves marking humans, but they were not common. And most importantly, why Mario?

“Is he telling the truth?” Dayson asked Keith and Arya, who nodded in confirmation.

Dayson refused to accept this. “Someone marked you? How is that possible?”

“Thank you for your concern,” Mario said with a smile. “We consulted the Shaman before marking, and I took medicine and attended a ritual to ensure it was safe. My mate is taking very good care of me.”

What concern? Dayson didn’t care about Mario’s safety. The idea of this guy staying in the Shadow Fang pack for longer than necessary was making Dayson’s insides churn. And if Talia found out, she would be all, ‘aww, that’s so cute!’. Dayson needed to nip this weed in the bud before it started growing roots.

“You say your mate marked you. Who is she?”

“Not a she. It’s a HE,” Mario corrected Dayson. “Neal.”

“Neal?” Dayson repeated blankly. Was that supposed to mean something?

Mario nodded. “Neil is one of the young doctors here, a resident. Thanks to you, I was in the pack hospital instead of attending Talia’s Luna ceremony. Neal came to give me my second dose of painkillers, and the rest is history. I was waiting to hear you are back to thank you properly.”

“No need,” Dayson said curtly.

“I see. Words are not enough. We will prepare dinner and invite you to our flat. I will need to see with Neil about our availability and will call to see what time works for you…”

Dinner? What nonsense was that?

Dayson couldn’t believe that this shrimp was acting like he belonged here. Yes, there were cases of humans being marked which made them as almost-members of the pack, assuming Alpha allowed it.

Dayson would be an ass if he stood between fated mates. Talia would never forgive him.
