Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

His eyes never left left the child, who if could talk would all plead and cry for her life. She was too weak to do so and her breaths were numbered he knew that. But if he let his mate survive whose breaths were number as well it would mean that he would sacrifice his child and let Nathaniel bring someone back from the dead. It was no an option. The king in him could not let it happen. 

It was not something a king and an Alpha should be at a fight at. He knew that very well the duty and love would different and he had to make a choice between the two. Duty to the world as a king and as a member of it was more important but so was his very family.

"Take that mutt—"

His ears caught the sound, the pounding of footsteps on the ground as a vampire came near them. Turning around as if on autopilot he held the Vampire by his throat before placing his hands in his mouth and tearing his half head apart.

"Impressive." Nathaniel grinned but then turned the baby upside down, "your mate is barely breathing though." He dutifully pointed out.

Xavier's attention immediately went to her. The situation had turned too dire. Her eyes were open a fourth when he had last seen her before killing the Vampire and now they were closed completely. Her body was frail and her stomach, which was cut out was still bleeding. The blood didn't clot. 

Xavier simply did not know where to begin to treat her.

"Fuck," he whimpered out in helplessness, "baby." He pleaded as he neared her. 

As by the minute heartbeat got fainter and more, he cried out in helplessness as he did not know what else to do. It was only a given that now, she was to be prioritized then that little child.

"Medic!" He roared. "Get the fucking doctor." He could not do anything. 

Within seconds doctors appeared in front of him and immediately got to his mate. He started by sewing the open stomach roughly so that bleeding with stop. And other one started on his heart beat and Xavier watched helplessly as he pulled his hair.

There was nothing he could do to provide his mate with the life that she was now losing. Her heart beats were drifting away and her breath lessened his worst fears were coming true.

"Please. . .please. . ." He muttered out, begging the gods or whosoever it was that could get his made out of the death's door.

"God please," he pleaded at the sight off his mate losing her life. How could he be so late? He should have known better. She was dying, in front of him. 

"Fucking save her!" He snapped at the doctor who flinched back. "what do you need from me? You must want something for her to heal quicker."

If one mate was injured it was usually the other mate, who was more dominant, licking the injuries of the injured one. It worked wonderfully and healed the person before time.

His heart almost stopped beating when the doctors started CPR on his mate. Each push that they made to her chest he felt on himself. His heart was barely beating itself when his made was almost dying in front of his eyes. How could he be so late? How could he underestimate—

He heard it.

"More," he whispered out, "Do it more! I heard a beat!" It was there. 

He closed his eyes the sight. The strength of the process by the doctor had increased. He was the wolf as well and by his beast it was necessary to save the queen. Which is why he tried his hardest and exerted more force the necessary which lead Adeline's body to jump as soon as his touch left her.

Time and again her body jerked back and she moved like a dead person would. She moved as if she had no strength of our own. Her body rolled out at the force.

'please don't die,' he prayed to his mate, 'please Adeline, our journey has barely begun.'

He closed his eyes at the sight. The heart was beating but it was too slow to get a single beat and it was not good which is by the doctors had brought out the defibrillator.

"Fuck," the word left his mouth as he watched them charge it and then press it to her chest. It jerked back up. It did not stop there as they had to do it repeatedly to get a steady heartbeat.

'please," he wanted to plead out to her, to his mate but he knew that it was of no use as her life was not in her hands. He turned to look up to the full moon tonight. The goddess was watching everything happening around her. They said that the royal family, the most dominant Lycans of all over her favorites. How could a mother do this to her favorite children, he wondered.

His eyes widened at the thought about what he had completely forgotten. The baby, his girl that he had completely forgotten about was still with that mad man. The one who wanted the blood of a child who was barely going to make it alive.

Fuck, in order to save his dying mate your completely forgotten about the child who actually had a steady heartbeat but was in a hands of a madman.

His frantic eyes immediately looked for the girl who was not where she stood earlier. His daughter, he looked around hurriedly and his eyes finally caught her.

She was still in the hands of Noah barely breathing as he was sucking the life out of her. He immediately understood what he was doing. He was familiar with the ritual as he had read about them in the library and he knew what he had to do because. . 

Without thinking twice Xavier rammed into him pushing him with all his might, who was not in focus and was immediately toppled onto the ground. As the remedy to stop it stated, he knew what he had to do.

A father's worst nightmare. 

"Do it!" Alexander roared as he came to his brothers aid and held Noah down. He slammed his entire body into The Vampire holding him down. 

Looking forward and not at the child He held in his hands he closed his eyes and muttered a blessing for his child before holding her neck and twisting it. A tear tricked and fell to his cheek when he heard the crunch. 

"No! Fucking no!" Noah roared and thrashed around wildly at the child now without a heartbeat. Alexander had effectively grabbed him and kept him down but that did not deter the man who had lost everything. Noah turned around and bit into Alexander's neck, into the internal jugular vein and tore it apart, watching the brother with blood in his mouth. It was his revenge.

". . Ba . By. . " Xavier heard Adeline's whisper, who came back to life as he watched the life drain out of his brother's eyes.
