Iya's Blind Alpha

CHAPTER EIGHT

Iya's POV

I woke up with a terrible head ache.  I realized that I was in a hospital and suddenly remembered what happened.  I thought long and hard as to what was happening to me.  The orange glow, the wings, the cracked mirror, all somehow manifested when my face changed.  Curious though is that I often end up drained of energy afterwards.  I need to talk to beta Rene.  I want to see my parents.

The door squeaked and a man in white gown entered.  "Ah, glad you are awake Miss Iya." 

"Thank you.  Are you my doctor?"  I asked.

"Doctor Helios.  Yes, I was in charged of looking after you for 5 days now."

"Five days!  What?" I could not believe that I was out for that long!

"Your physical injury healed after two days.  What drained you longer was the emotional fatigue."

Emotional fatigue a.k.a alpha annoying king!  

"Doctor Helios, I need to speak to the beta.  Can I be discharged now?"

"The beta?  Don't you want to see the alpha king first," he asked.

"No.  I need to see the beta."  I cleared.

"I'll see what I can do."

"Thank you, doctor."

The doctor was mind linking Rene when a couple entered the room.  Immediately, Doctor Helios bowed and stepped back.  The man looked regal and the woman looked elegant.  They must be high ranking wolves.

"My dear, how are you feeling?"  the woman asked.

"I am a bit dizzy but I think I am getting stronger now.  Thank you.  Do I know you, Ma'am?"

"I am the alpha queen mother, you may call me Leila.  This is the alpha king father, Carlos."

"Your majesties.  It's nice to meet you."  I tried to sit to give respect but struggled.

"No need dear, do not tire yourself.  We are glad to meet you too, although we wished it was not here in the pack hospital," King Carlos said.

The queen got teary all of a sudden.  "May I embrace you, dear?"  

"Uhmm, sure."  The queen embraced me lovingly and it moved me.  Why are the royals being so nice to me?  How can such a wonderful and nice couple give birth to a heartless son?

After releasing me from the embrace, I wasted no time to ask a favor.  "Your majesties, I need to see my parents.  I miss them a lot and I need to ask them important things.  Please, I beg you."

"We will surely relay your request to the alpha king himself.  Our son has strict and specific orders about you. "  The couple looked weary.  "In fact, he is on his way here."  The king father added.

"No!  I do not want to see the king!  Please!"  I started glowing orange again.  "See here, he is the trigger!  His hate for me, his insults, his controlling attitude towards me makes me glow orange and it drains me!"  I was hysterical and who could blame me?  That man is despicable!

I was trashing and shouting.  Then I pulled the needle out from my wrist and blood splattered.  The people around me gasp in the sight and rushed to me.  Then a growl was heard.  And I lost it!  He's near.  I was angry and scared and helpless.  Nobody listens to me.  My orange glow started to heat up!  They all moved away from me because now I am aflame! 

"Iya, stop.  I will not hurt you.  Calm down."  Pietro calmly spoke to me.  He slowly approaches me and I back off the bed.  

I am in flame and yet the bed cover is not burning.  Is it because I do not have intentions to burn things?  But they felt the heat.  I am scared of my self.  So scared...

"Iya..."  

I looked him in the eyes.  "Let me see my parents.  Look at me!  This is not normal!  I need answers!" 

"Fine, I will send for them, in one condition, calm down.  Your emotions are fanning the flame around you." He coached.

I closed my eyes and breathe deeply.  My eyes are still closed when Pietro held me in an embrace.  I panicked.  "I might burn you!"

"No, I won't burn in your touch, Iya."  Soon enough I was back to normal and he released me.  Flames gone.

"Wait, how come you can now see?  Did you have a surgery or something?"  I asked.

"Or something."  He smiled.  Wow!  He's drop dead gorgeous when he smiles.

"Your parents will arrive tomorrow.  Recuperate so you could welcome them yourself."  He advised.

After Doctor Helios fixed my tubes and dextrose, everyone left, except Pietro.    He sat in a chair near my bed and started reading a book.  The medicine took its effect and I felt my eyes getting heavier and heavier.  The last conscious thing I heard was "you can't become my weakness..."

"...then let me be your strength," I somehow softly replied.
