Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 23: Iñigo's Past
Iñigo's POV"No!" a curly-haired brunette woman dressed in a violet tried to get away from the Iotas who seized her. The two of them pulled her arms in front of the Alpha King.The name of the Alpha King is Iramus. His eyes glowed bright red filled with rage. But his figure may seem too calm and unnerved. To me, I was certain that he loathed the woman in front of him.The soil underneath us stained our shoes due to the heavy rain drowning the whole earth.I was there watching. I was literally shivering. It wasn't because of the rain but because of my anger.The woman's figure could be reflected in my green eyes. Helpless. Hopeless.I balled my fists while I wait beside the oak tree. I wanted to move my feet and do something, but I couldn't. I was planted down to the soil, rooted but dying.Those whom we served with all our lives... those whom we entrust our whole lineage to... was the sole reason for our downfall.The woman stretched out her hand in my direction. That was when my eyes
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 24: The Suspicion
Amarantha's POV I was still in over my head right after the meeting. It didn't hurt what they said to me being a human, the lowest rank of all the creatures of this world now that werewolves existed. Rather, I was in deep confusion about my purpose.I couldn't help but question myself. What if Iram found out that I was never his curse-breaker in the first place? What if because of me, he will die a vain death due to the curse given by the Moon Goddess herself and I didn't have anything to heal him?I couldn't let such a terrible thing happen! I didn't care about being the Luna Queen. What's so important about the title? All I ever wanted was to end the war between the werewolf and humans. All I care about was my safety. But now that I was brought here by force, my concerns shifted 360 degrees. Now, all I care about is him.Iram."Luna, are you upset?" Omnibus asked. He was following me out of the meeting hall and to Iram's room. "I know that you were upset because of what happened bu
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 25: Human Dungeon
Amarantha's POVThe next day, I was bombarded with a lot of work that I never thought I would face in the absence of the Alpha King. Good thing that I can read and write, and a good thing that werewolves also use human language and the alphabet.I was sweating profusely despite the cold air inside the library. I used this place to finish some tasks that Omnibus and Iñigo guided me to do. With that, I was able to finish around 50 tasks out of 60 tasks that needed to be finished this day.I sighed and rested the quill beside the inkstand. I needed to finish 5 more letters to be sent out to other packs for the upcoming Unity Ceremony. It is a traditional event wherein packs inside Western continents gather and meet annually. Most of the visitors would be Alphas and Lunas of packs in the whole of Europe. It is 2 months away from now. The final day of Iram's curse and life.I rested my back against the chair and looked heavenwards. I only saw pigment of light from the outside. I missed wal
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 26: Worsened
Amarantha's POV "No matter what you do, don't trust anyone. Do you understand?"Those were the last words I heard from my mother. I remembered the place and time. It was September 1st, 1939 when the war began.There were a lot of human soldiers all over our country. It was the last tolerable scene I had witnessed before everything went into darkness.But right at that moment, when I lost my mother and father, the day I lost my hope for humanity. Those were the times when I hated being a human. All they could think about was to run and hide from the monsters.It was then, I realized just now that the real monster wasn't them. It wasn't the werewolves after all. It was me.I was the monster who disguised myself as a werewolf and became part of the predators who destroyed this world. I was an enabler of chaos.Seeing Tabitha just now seemed so sudden. It was a wake-up call for me. The reminder that I was only brought here for a purpose. It was not because I wanted to. I needed to.It wa
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 27: Magic Spell
Amarantha's POV I have only one day to search for an answer.After I asked Amelia to take care of Iram in the meantime, I tried searching for clues inside the library. I wanted to know something about medicinal methods for werewolves. This was my first time being involved in such a problem.I frustratingly slammed the last book of medicine down the table and grunted. "Why can't I find anything related to his disease? There must be something around here that might help me..."Omnibus sighed and looked at me with a resigned look. "You should rest, Luna. You've been up since last night. You didn't even give yourself a whip of sleep. Please take rest, Luna," he pleaded.I shook my head and grabbed another book. "No. I can't give up now. I have to figure out what to do. We can't let him die!" I refused.Omnibus suddenly held my hand to stop me from moving. It was just soft and comforting. He was like telling me exactly what he wanted me to say. To rest. "Please..."I closed my eyes and si
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 28: Most Valuable Thing
Amarantha's POVHer cunning smile made me doubt my purpose.No. It wasn't just my purpose. I was afraid that she might see through me. How much I worry because of what happened to Iram and because of my fear of losing against him.But seeing Aruna for the second time meant that I already knew what that smile was for. It was because she already knew. She already knew what I came here for.It was damp outside her lair. More cars and chariots had been towed toward this place. I could smell rust, coal, and rubber. They were stinging and picking inside my nose. I sniffed it out and shook my head.Aruna chuckled. "What a surprise to see you here again, human. Are you ready to offer what you promised me last time?" She walked and attempted to encircle me but Omnibus was fast enough to stop her. She just settled in walking to and fro. "Hmm... new pester."I sighed and lowered my head. "I need your help. You're the only one who can help me," I told her helplessly."I know," she quickly respond
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 29: Intangible
Amarantha's POVI pulled the necklace around my neck. I looked at it for the 2nd time and whimpered silently. "I'm sorry, mother and father..."Aruna's hand was waiting in mid-air. She was nonchalantly looking around, unminding my cries, thankfully.I heaved a sigh and put the locket on her palm. From there, I saw a golden glow right beneath the locket that touched her palm. Her eyes glowed the same color as well. It was like she was magnifying and speculating the locket using her powers.It was my first time seeing her in that state. As a human with unrequited love for science, I do not believe in phenomena like this. I didn't even believe in miracles. I'd long forgotten about it when the war began.But seeing Aruna and her majestic powers, I was mesmerized. I didn't know that someone like her can be a weighing scale of importance for sacrifice. She is a marvelous person. It's such a shame that werewolves loathed witchcraft and rogues. It pretty much seemed like they didn't like some
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 30: Different Shade
Amarantha's POVI closed my eyes. I needed a miracle to come to me right now.I wish that everything would come back to normal.But now, what would my normal be? Was it human normal or werewolf normal?Aruna smirked at me. She slowly walked closer to me showing me in mid-air a diamond-cut crystal pendant swinging with the wind. I was drawn to its pace. Not long enough it glowed a blue light to yellow.It swung and swung until I could only hear its movement.Aruna's smirk widened in full amusement. "You must be something. Alright!" she commented and then nodded. "Gift accepted..."I saw her eyes glow in gold color again. With that, a sudden pulse pushed me. It felt like something within me separated.I moaned in pain. My mouth was open and due to lack of balance, I fell on my back with a loud thud.I looked at the sky, carefully watching the clouds roll over. I wanted to reach for it but my body was too weak to even move.My breathing was heavy and painful until my eyes did, too. They

Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 142: From My Cursed Love to my Happy Ending
Amarantha's POV I saw many things a human shouldn't have at this time of age.As girls leaving in Scotland, we could have been enjoying the traditions and swooning about the magic of love in wedding ceremonies.I was once that typical woman. But in today's generation where I live in a world where another creature coexisted with humans, I beg to differ.Human girls would still prefer marrying rather than choosing to be of service to the people.I became the Luna Queen of Europe.Years passed. Other packs reshaped the way they thought about the world. The Alpha King and I are devout to be of service to the werewolf society. It was a tough job as many ridiculed me for being a human.Many also ridiculed Iram for the rumors of him being cursed by the Moon Goddess. But I stayed by his side and never left him.I showed them that the curse was nothing but propaganda to oust him from his post as the Alpha King.Inima already explained things to us. Before she died, she revealed everything inc
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 141: Inima's Last Message
Iram's POV Right after Omnibus left, memories started to rush inside of me...Omnibus came to me inside the library with quite a surprise.He was with Lorna.I narrowed my eyes in confusion. "Lorna? What are you doing here? You were with her?" I asked Omnibus.He shrugged and pointed at her. "She said she has to say something to you."I turned to her again and waited for her to say something.She heaved a sigh and faced me. "Alpha King. Please forgive me for fooling you, but please hear me out before it's too late..." she suddenly uttered."What do you want to tell me?""I am not Lorna Ferrel. I am a Chimera. Someone that has two souls, two wolves in one body. With that, I have two fated mates. And one of them was you..."I arched my brow at her. I am starting to get annoyed. "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you trying to fool me right now?""I am telling you the truth. I am none other than your first mate. Inima Wahlberg. Beta Iñigo's dead sister. I am her. I am that fated
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 140: To Be Deserving
Omnibus' POV After that conversation with Luna Amarantha and Shintara, I felt like my energy was drained from me.At night, King Iram asked for my audience. Still, a bit disarrayed, I forced myself to get up and came to his chamber.He sat at a table and poured a drink. He smiled and gestured his hand to me. "Come and join me here, Omnibus!" he delightfully invited me.My shoulders slumped at the scene and frowned at him. "Wow! I'm dying inside and you're celebrating? Do I look like a joke to you, Iram?" I casually asked.He snorted and patted the empty chair. "It's not for celebration, idiot!"I gasped. "Woah! When did you learn to cuss at me, brother?""Shintara taught me well, don't worry!" he laughed.I frowned and rolled my eyes. "Did you just call me to make fun of my broken heart?"Iram chuckled again and placed the glass in front of me. "Drink."I sighed and stared at the glass before drinking the beer in it. "Is it so wrong to feel guilty about Amarantha's twin sister? I mea
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 139: Past's Sacrifice
Amarantha's POV During the lunch with the Alpha King, the two love birds can't stop bickering at each other. They sent sharp daggers at each other and then turned away in contempt.I couldn't help but sigh."Can someone please tell me what's happening?" Iram asked but I just turned to him and shook my head."Don't ask. They won't budge. Trust me."***** After that, Iram had to leave us three for some peace talks with other packs.I was left with the two still not happy with each other's company."Do you want to reject each other? Is that it?" I asked."No!" they both angrily replied."Well, then, kiss and make up already!""It's not that simple, Luna!" Shintara reasoned. "I don't want to get married to a man who is still stuck with his past!""And I wouldn't want to marry a woman who still thinks she knows better! Fine by me!" Omnibus butted in.I rolled my eyes and massaged my temples. After that, I faced them. "Let's be clear here. Ava is dead. My twin sister is dead. So, what's t
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 138: Bickering
Amarantha's POV I smiled at the boy who asked that question and patted his shoulder. "Good question, dear!" I told him delightfully. "Because I don't want to change everything in me. I accept who and what I am as I am made to be who I am."If I try to change myself, then I would have no face to show in front of my original race. I wouldn't have convinced them into this peace. Most importantly, the new rules would be irrelevant to those people who wanted peace. Because if I become the face of someone who isn't proud of who I am, then what will become of others? They wouldn't be happy to see me not so proud of how I was brought into this world."The people sympathized with my words and understood me.For me, it wasn't just because of the humans that I stayed human. For me, I chose to stay who I am because I am happy with who I am.God made me a human for a purpose. He wanted me to reach this far for me to know what I should do. And this was it."Roaming around again?" Beta Omnibus teas
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 137: Reign of Change
Amarantha's POV We immediately left Nottingham with a brief announcement to leave.I could not wait for Emerett's approval anymore. I just told him that I await his answer but he has to deliver it with action.Shintara and I immediately landed on Prima Tierra. With her swift strides, we came back in a span of 30 minutes.I was shocked to see the scenery.I saw Iram's wolf fighting against Iñigo's wolf. Some of Prima Tierra's soldiers were losing."No one came from Ouse?" I asked worriedly."We need stalling, Luna. You must go to the border and let them in. I will help others in here," Shintara said then left. She fought alongside the soldiers.I frustratingly ran toward the border. Some were about to attack me but luckily, a familiar wolf came and killed two of the werewolves."Omnibus?""How are you doing, Luna? Be careful!" he shouted, then led me to the border. After that, he left me alone.Not long enough, the pack of rogues came.The leader shifted into his human form and faced
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 136: Negotiations
Amarantha's POV "We have to hurry!" Shintara shouted at me.I was having second thoughts about leaving Iram behind. I didn't feel cool with this. Something is bothering me."What are you taking so long?" she asked, irritated. "We're almost there, Luna!""I can't just do this. Something is not right, Shintara. What if something happened to them?""Quit overthinking and let's focus on this task. Do you not want this for your people?"She's right. I was too busy worrying about Iram. He can handle himself. He is very strong unlike me who is just a mere human who can only heal him if he needs me.After that thought, I decided to follow Shintara's tracks. Shintara shifted into her large white wolf form. She let me ride behind her as she swiftly glided through the forest.We reached the Ouse River in front of the Rogue Alpha's tavern.They displayed hostility but when they saw Shintara's wolf, they all scowled away in fear and backed down.Shintara shifted back to her human form and faced t
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 135: Revelation for Two Best Friends
Iram's POV "Your Majesty! They are already here! The traitors!" one of the Iotas shouted.I clenched my jaw in anger and faced the army I have prepared. "Gather all the citizens and make sure they are safe in one place. Close all exit points once they enter our pack." I turned to my right. "Gamma, choose one Iota you trust the most to relay my message. We need their help right now. Do you understand?"Omnibus nodded. "Yes, your majesty!" He faced his men and picked one for the work. That was when Shintara appeared.She crossed her arms and confidently looked at her mate. "I will lead that part. Count me in!" she volunteered."Are you sure you're going to do this?" he asked worriedly."Hey, if I ever was born rich like you, I would have been the Alpha King's Gamma. Don't pamper me too much."I scoffed at their bickering. But I no longer hated cheesy moments like this.I looked over my shoulder and smiled at the lady that lit up my whole life. "My Luna! How are you feeling?"Amarantha
Alpha King's Cursed Love Chapter 134: Secret Fortress
Iñigo's POV "What are you saying, Oliver? Are you saying that the Luna was kidnapped?" Delta Redentus asked."Y-yes, Delta.""Where is your evidence? You cannot just say that in this court without evidence!" Gufu also uttered."I do have, Zeta. I have solid proof. But first, I want to ask the Alpha King about his recollection of this...""What is his involvement?"Oliver faced Iram and bowed his head. "My King. I would like to ask you a question...""Go ahead..." he replied."That night when you punished the luna after not eating the food you prepared for her, did you remember how you treated her? Specifically, where did she stay and who was with her?" Oliver asked curiously.Iram's forehead creased in confusion. "I don't quite remember everything. It was too bloody hellish that night that I didn't want to remember..." he answered honestly. "But I do remember approving to have her guarded by many Iotas," he added.My heart raised a million miles after hearing those words from him.Co
