I felt relaxed with Micaela cuddled up against my skin, and my hands brushed on the soft strands of her hair. This was something I would never get tired of doing. The fact that she was better and wasn't mad at me for leaving, still trusting me to touch her, was like a dream to me because I thought after everything she would want to put a distance between us. Then, I would have to work hard to gain her trust again, but that was not the case.

I stared off at the wall at the far end of the room where the window was, looking out at the dark cloud with the stars shining brighter than ever. I needed to tell her everything and how she was important to my king and me.

I still wasn't sure how I planned on doing it; I couldn't count the number of times I practised the words to say and the way to say it in my head. It felt so easy to just spit it out in my mind, but I know that wouldn't be so when I do decide to tell her.

My hand wrapped around her angelic body. I should be working since I h

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   ANASTASIA

    It's been two weeks since I woke up, and I still stay in Orpheus' room. It wasn't because I was still scared to go outside; I still have nightmares about that day, but I'm gradually overcoming them. I locked myself up in the king's room for a week before having the courage to go out to the hall and my room without shaking in fear, and besides, I was slowly warming up to Kyros. He hasn't really said much to me, and he hasn't tried to hurt me either. Just like Orpheus promised, he always stayed out the door, only coming in to check on me once in a while. Speaking of the king, he has been really busy these past few days. Things in the palace have also been hectic, with the maids running around trying to finish up their tasks, especially today. There was a royal ball being held this evening, and every high-ranking official would be attending. I had asked Orpheus if it was okay for me to go down and work since I wasn't really doing anything, but he bluntly refused. He won't let me do an

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   RESOLVING CONFLICT

    The room was crowded with elegant people in various sets of pricey gowns and tuxedos, and the celebration was in full swing. The outer portion of the floor was lined with high tables where people could stand and talk. A lengthy table with a variety of foods, from sushi to cheese and crackers, sat at the far end. A luxurious red carpet with a backdrop for photos was located on the opposite side. While classical music played subtly in the background, exquisite chandeliers were hung low, enhancing the room’s attractiveness. I remained behind the king, my legs aching from standing for so long. My eyes wandered around the room, watching the people dance, while some stood in groups talking amongst each other. My focus shifted from the dance floor to the opposite side of the room, where Anastasia was standing with a glass of champagne in her hands and her hand on the shoulder of a tall, sullen man, as a loud laugh echoed through the room. Though i could see his lips moving and Anastas

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   OUTING WITH THE KING

    The king had urged me to get ready and dress warmly, and I had done so, but I still didn't know where he was taking me, and he wouldn't speak to me about it. Some of the guests are still in the palace two days after the ball, while others have already left for their homes and countries. Anastasia just happened to be a part of the group that decided to extend their stay, and though we haven't crossed paths since the ball, knowing she was still around didn't make me feel comfortable. Pressing the button of the elevator, I got to the first floor and outside the palace, where the king was waiting, standing beside a car. He smiled when he saw me, pulling the car door open so that I could get in before getting in on the driver's side and driving out of the palace. "Where are we going?" I ask, curious as to where he is taking me. "It's a secret." "Can't you just tell me? I promise to act surprised," I whined, causing him to laugh. "How can you possibly act surprised when you alre

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   HIS FEATHER-LIKE TOUCH

    His lips pressed against mine. I didn't anticipate receiving a kiss with such an open ferocity. I felt his bulge press against me through the thick fabric of his pants as we kissed, letting me know exactly what he thought of the situation. He pulled me against him, his wet flesh brushing against mine. Orpheus's lips were firm against mine and had a fruity, sweet flavour. I was powerless to resist as his tongue flicked against the seam of my mouth, pleading with me to open for him. When his tongue inserted into my mouth, the kiss changed from an exploration to a luxurious conquest, and I let out a low moan. It brushed across my skin with assurance, assertiveness, and boldness. His every slur informed me what he would be like in a relationship and in bed. He would take charge of my physical being and induce a buzz of yearning. He would succeed if I gave him even a little encouragement. He didn't like to accept "no" as an answer. And at this time, I really didn't want to say no.

    The gentle tracing of someone's fingers against my arms and shoulders was what woke me up; my eyes wandered around the fancy curtain, confused for a moment. The more I regained my senses, the more I became aware of the blue sheets that covered me, stopping above my breast and feeling light and delicate against my skin. I kept my focus on the curtain until I felt fingers moving up to my neck and back in a teasing manner, causing me to arch my body as I groaned out in protest. A gentle kiss was placed on my back, moving up to my shoulder blade, reminding me of my nakedness. I moved my body, trying to pull the duvet up even more, when a low groan filled my ear and a hand wrapped around my waist, holding me in place. "I wouldn't do that if I were you, Ayárun, you:" A tense shiver ran down my face when I heard Orpheus' husky morning voice. My mind is a little hazy, trying to comprehend what we did or didn’t do last night. After giving me my first ever orgasm, that was about it. We

    "Damn, I'm so hungry. I can't believe we get to eat food like this." Josiane said. The three of us were in the guest room in the king's quarter, having our lunch. We took a seat on the couch with the TV sound blaring in the background and our order of pepperoni pizza and smoothies on the table in front of us. "So tell me, how are things between you and the king?" Josiane asked curiously, causing a smile to light up my face. It has been a week since our trip to the cabin, and things have been going great. The king and I have been making out a lot these past few days, not that I was complaining. "It's been great; I never expected things to turn out this good," I tell her sincerely. "Come on, give me something juicy. I can see the glow on your face; have you guys done the deed yet?" She asked, raising her eyebrows in a teasing manner. "Josiane," I looked at her, baffled as my face turned deep red. I looked over to the door, thankful that Kyros wasn't around to listen to our co

    It was 5 p.m. in the evening, and still, there was no sight of Orpheus. It was just like the morning when I woke up to an empty bed with his side a little cold to show that he had been up for some time. I was moving around the palace since I had nothing to do, but at the same time, I was hoping to catch a glimpse of the king. I was going over to the kitchen when I bumped into a maid I was familiar with. She was one of the girls Josiane had been talking to during the night of the ball. "Hey, Micaela, it's been a while," she said, holding onto a tray with both her hands. "Hi Kelly," I greeted with a smile on my face. "I would really love to chat with you, but I need to take this to the king," she said, raising the tray up a little. She attempted to walk past me, but I stopped her by blocking her way. "Why don't I take it? You must have other things to do." I haven't seen him all day; excitement filled me up. It was like bubbles that had been building up in my stomach were now

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   RECONCILING

    I stared at the door, expecting Orpheus to return while still sobbing my heart out. Why!? Why did I act so childish, believing Anastasia instead of trusting the king? The more I remembered his pain-stricken face, the more tears fell from my eyes; if I had the power to go back just a few hours, I wouldn't have acted the way I did. My hands clenched onto my chest, my knees raised, and my head rested on them while still staring at the door. I wasn't sure how long I sat there waiting for the king to come back; I must have fallen asleep because when I woke up, it was already bright outside, with the sun almost blinding me. I was not on the floor but instead on the bed with a duvet covering me, which meant that the king had returned back to the room, yet the side of the bed where he was supposed to sleep was empty and untouched, showing that he hadn't slept on the bed. Was he that pissed at me that he didn't want to be near me? I sighed, wiping the tears that fell from my eyes.

    It was 6 p.m. in the evening, and Orpheus wasn't back from his usual kingly duties, while I was literally losing all sense of reason, being bored out of my mind, and having nothing to do since I wasn't allowed to work. Another maid had been assigned to Orpheus, but not as his personal maid; she was to clean and tidy up the floor, which was probably the same thing I was doing before. I still haven't met her yet; somehow, despite being up here not doing anything, we still haven't crossed paths. I don't know how she does it, but she was definitely doing a better job at keeping herself hidden than I ever did. "I need food," I groaned, lying on my back as I stared at the ceiling. "I'm not surprised; you have been eating a lot lately." Godiva says, I take a seat on the couch beside me. We were both done watching a movie and were waiting for Josie to arrive with our food. "I can't help it; I'm a growing woman; I need me some food." We both laughed, staring at the ceiling as if the

    I walked into the throne room with Loukas and the council of elders already there, waiting. They were two men and a woman; the woman happens to be the oldest in the group. They all got to their feet when they saw me, bowing their heads and waiting for me to sit down before having theirs. "Your Majesty," The woman greeted me first; despite her age, she looked not a day older than fifty. "I'm Claris, and it is an honour to be in your midst, your majesty." "I'm Davon." "And I'm Tyrone." Both men introduce themselves at the same time, the three of them giving me yet another bow. I nodded curtly, acknowledging their greeting. "It's an honour to be in your midst as well." I responded, and the three of them smiled. "Before we get started, why don't we have breakfast first? I'm sure with all the rushing to get here on time, you all must not have had the chance to have a proper morning meal." "That would be nice, your majesty," Davon said. "It will be a great pleasure to dine wi

    The feeling of a finger brushing through my hair had me groaning out in pleasure, loving the feel of it. I heard the sound of someone gigging, which had me pulling my eyes open, and I was welcomed with the sight of Micaela gazing down at me lovingly. "I'm surprised you woke up this early; it's still dark." My sleepy voice rang out, and this made the smile on her face stretch even more. "I got tired of sleeping, probably because I went to bed early yesterday." She smiled and kissed my lips. I pulled her closer, her head resting on my chest. "The sun isn't out yet, Ayárun uou, let's sleep some more," I said as I caressed her cheek; she pulled away to peck my lips before lying back on my chest. We stayed in each other's embrace, cuddling for some time till I fell asleep. When I woke up again, it was already 8:00 a.m. I kissed Micaela on her forehead and then slowly lifted up her head to place it on the pillow. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up for the d

    I went into the library in search of a book to read; one I selected was a romance fantasy novel. I took a seat at the far end of the library, close to the window with the marvellous view of the garden. I started reading, getting lost in the world of fantasy, until I was disturbed by a knock on the door, and Josiane and Godiva came in with a tray in their hands. Because I was so immersed in what I was reading, I had totally forgotten it was lunchtime. I smiled at them, to which they returned as I dropped the book down. The two of them looked around the library, their eyes scanning every detail of it in awe. I stared at them amused; this was the first time they had entered the library, and I was sure they were stunned by the structure and the number of books in it. "This is so huge." Josiane gushed, with Godiva nodding in agreement with her. After spending almost five minutes admiring the view of the library, they finally got to where I was seated. "Hey, are you done being sw

    As he kept kissing me as if I were his oxygen, Orpheus' fingers grasped my breast. He made firm, unrelenting movements. I was envious of everything he had to offer. Just what that was, I had no idea. I felt a tiny strand of anxiety slither through me as a result of that thinking. If I wasn't good, what then? What if I made a mistake? Was there a right way to go about it? Would it be painful? I had to take a breather because I was so nervous and had to withdraw my mouth away from his. He again gathered me into his arms after removing his hand from between my legs. He placed me against his chest, my arms encircling his neck as he did so. I let out a small squeak of surprise. He again gathered me into his arms after removing his hand from between my legs.

    We carried on eating, enjoying our dinner, and were done in no time when Orpheus cleared his throat, causing him to look up at him. The playfulness in his face was gone and was replaced with a serious look with a hint of nervousness. "I actually have something I need to talk to you about." He started off by saying, "I know this contrast between our kind and yours isn't the best. It doesn't help that they all despise each other and have caused a lot of harm to each other. At first, I hated the fact that I mated with a human, someone too weak and powerful to be my equal, but now I can't imagine my future without you." All I did was stare at his eyes; I could see the emotions swimming in them. the regret, sincerity, and most of all, love. love for me. "I want you to be by my side all the time, to grow old with me. Spend every happy and sad moment with each other, being each other's strength and support." He joined both our hands together. "I know you already accept me as your mate

    I was up and ready the next morning; it wasn't like I was able to get any more sleep. I couldn't help it; my anxiety and curiosity were eating me up, and I wanted to know what was going on and the secret Orpheus planned on telling me. My body was already back to normal without me feeling tired or weak. Orpheus had told me that Neve was here the other night, and she had been the one to heal. I still didn't have the time to call and thank her, but I kept a note to do that later. Right now, I was in the kitchen, having breakfast with Orpheus. The both of us were not saying anything as we ate, and all I wanted to do was blurt out last night's question, but I knew he was going to tell me, so all I needed to do was exhibit a bit of patience. The only sound in the room was the sound of our cutlery hitting our plates. After we were done with our food, I offered to do the dishes, but Orpheus refused, saying I still needed rest even though I had all the rest I needed. I remained seat

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   GAINING CONTROL

    My body felt weak and drained, but I felt myself regaining all my senses. It had been a while since he came out, and I tried not to get angry because he only comes out when I become pissed and out of control, which is what my mother's presence did to me. She always manages to bring out the worst in me. Every single time, all I felt was immense pain running through my body for no reason other than to punish me, and I think that this is a way to retaliate for keeping me locked in. I have never tried fighting him before, but even since the time I almost lost control in front of Micaela, I made a promise to myself never to frighten her the way I did, so I did everything I could to suppress him. Even when my mother began spitting words out, I still wanted to hold back, thinking only of Micaela, but I lost it when she threatened to take my mate away from me and have her killed. Suddenly, all I felt was the darkness consuming me; it felt like I was in nothingness, just complete darkn

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   BACK TO ME

    Loukas seemed to be thinking it through; his eyes shifted from me to Orpheus and then back to me. "You come out if it's dangerous." He warns, and I nod. He walked over to the door connected to the room; it seemed to be built with heavy materials. Loukas took a key from his jeans pocket, opening the locks before pulling them open. "Remember, you come out when you don't feel safe." He warns again, and I nod my head. "I promise," I muttered, stepping into the room. I took slow steps towards Orpheus. My legs grew weak as I got closer to him. His breath was rigid and heavy; his head was down, making it hard for me to see his face as he tugged on the chains. He stopped his movement, and his nose began sniffing the air as he raised his head up; his completely black eyes met mine. I remained rooted in my spot, too afraid to make any noise. A part of me wanted to run away, scared out of my wits at how terrifying he looked, and the other part of me wanted to stay to comfort him and
