Caged Between Two Alphas

It is my wedding day. My fu*king wedding, that I never wanted. How did I end up in this situation? How did I let them make me commit to a relationship that I never wanted? What is wrong with me? No. Nothing is wrong with me. It’s her. She is the one who has gone mad by thinking that I can ever be happy with another girl. I don’t even know who this girl is I am marrying with. Pacing through the room I was waiting in, I kept gulping down the burning liquid of the whisky bottle. I wish it could make me drunk like humans to lose my senses because this is really painful. I am the most successful billionaire alpha in this entire world. I can do anything I wish for. But here I am, stuck in a position by a lady from which I can’t get out of. I really regret my decisions. I shouldn’t have listened to her. I shouldn’t have agreed to this in the first place and kept fighting for myself. “Austin? Dude, what are you doing? Put that bottle down.” “Relax. You know this doesn’t affect us. It’s not like I am getting drunk.” “Yeah, I know. But I also know that it causes enough damage to our body to give us severe headaches and make us angry. And the way you are drinking out of that bottle, I guess that is what you are trying to do now. Look at yourself. You look like a mess. It’s your wedding. You have to go out on the altar in just a few minutes and you are not even ready yet.” “Eric. Please, help me buddy. I want this madness to stop. I don’t want to get married. Do something to stop it. Anything..” “You know I can’t. It’s granny’s decision. She will never back away from this. She will find you a mate one way or another. Besides, we all know that it’s for your own good. Think about Josie. It’s for her future too.” “You are repeating her words. Are you in this scheme with her? Did you know about everything from the beginning? So, you also know who is this bi*ch she is forcing onto me.” “No.. Dude. You are my best friend. Why would I lie to you about such a big thing? I was as surprised to hear it as you. I have no idea who your wife is.” “Then tell me, how can I do this? How can I accept a girl I don’t know?” “I don’t know, man. I just came here to help you get ready. Now put that bottle down and fix your tux. It’s final that you are getting married today. So there’s no point in whining.” Eric took the bottle out of my hand while I slumped down on the couch, hanging my head back. He also tried to fix my tux and my tie because he knew I have no intention of getting ready. “Daddy.. Come. Hurry. It’s time.” My heart just lighted up the moment my 4 years old daughter just ran into the room and jumped on my lap. She’s wearing a pink dress and a beautiful flower hairband for the wedding. I think she’s taking part in the ceremony too. “Hi, sweetheart. You are looking so pretty today.” “Yeah.. But not more than angel. She is more pretty. She’s so beautiful in her big white dress. Come and see her.” “Angel? Who are you talking about, Josie? Is that your new friend?” “Yes. But Gigi says angel’s going to become my mommy. You are bringing her home as my gift. Is that true daddy? Are you making angel, my mommy? That would be the best gift ever. I love her daddy. She’s so pretty and nice. I want her.” So, she’s talking about the girl I am marrying. Granny’s already teaching my daughter to accept that girl as her new mom. “Josie. She’s not your mom. She will never be. And she’s not an angel. She’s a devil in disguise. We have to stay away from her. We have to keep our eyes open before she hurts us.” “She’s going to hurt us? But she’s so nice. She..” “No Josie. Don’t listen to your dad. He’s just scaring you. Your mommy will never hurt you. I already talked to you about it, didn’t I?” There she came after everyone, to change my mind. Why does she always do that? “Granny. Stop feeding my girl some lies. You know that girl will never become her mother. A stepmother can never take the place of a real one.” “And we are here to prove you wrong. Look at you. Why aren’t you ready yet? It’s time. Eric! I thought I told you to check on him. Why does he look like a mess? Come on. Fix yourself and come out. Everyone’s waiting for you.” “Granny. Think about what you are doing once again. There will be no turning back after this. I don’t know who this girl this. But if she’s marrying a man like me, she’s definitely doing it because of my money. She’s going to hurt all of us. Even my innocent girl. We can still stop it from happening.” “Austin. We talked about it many times. I know what I am doing. If you really love us and if you really trust me, then accept this marriage. The responsibility would be on me if something bad happens in the future. You have my words. Now come out. We are waiting. Come Josie. Eric..” She motioned Eric to help me while she walked out of the room with Josie. Now I have no other way to get out of this. I can’t break granny’s heart by disobeying her wish. She gave me her words, and she never broke it before. Fine then. If she wants me to try, I will give this girl a chance. I will do it for her and my daughter. I fixed myself and went out to the altar with Eric as my best man. Everything is settled, and the priest is already standing there to wed us. As I reached to my place, the ceremony started. I saw my little girl walk down the aisle, dropping flowers from her little basket, followed by my grandmother. And at last I saw her. My so-called bride. I watched as she came walking down the aisle, holding her father’s hand. Her face was covered with the veil, so her face is yet to be revealed. But something’s strange. I am having a weird feeling since they entered. They look kind of weird. I took my eyes off of her in discomfort, allowing her to come to me herself. And shamelessly, she did. She came to stand in front of me. “Austin. Pick up her veil. It’s a tradition.” Granny’s warning tone made me understand that I have to participate in the rituals as if I mean it. Even if I don’t want to. So, taking a big sigh, I picked up her veil. But the moment I saw her face, my brain stopped working. I looked right into her eyes as she looked into mine and I instantly knew who or what she is. “Human. You are a human. That’s it. I am not doing this. I will never marry a human.” With that, I walked out of the altar, leaving her standing there in utter shock.
