ZADIE WILSONA sharp sting on my left cheek made me whimper. My eyelids batted rapidly, fighting the drowsiness that threatened to pull me under as my heart tightened. “Rise and shine, sleeping beauty.” A voice called for me. It sounded so far yet so close to me and I tried to wiggle out of the uncomfortable position I was in even though I still remained half-conscious. I realized that my hands were tied and so were my ankles. That realization caused my eyes to open wide. Gone was the drowsy feeling I was battling with earlier and my brain finally registered that I had been slapped earlier. “Ahh! She is finally awake.” The same voice that I couldn't recognize while I was half conscious sang when my eyes fluttered open. And my face furrowed, knitting into a frown when my eyes settled on the face of the person in front of me. “I didn't bring you here to sleep even though you seem to need the rest.” The man before me uttered emotionlessly. Recognition must have flashed through m
ALPHA KING AYDEN“She isn’t improving, My King and I think it’s time we let her son know that he might be losing his mother–” “No one will call for my parents and she isn't dying!” I interjected harshly, opposing the Royal Physician. Robin has been trying to convince me about calling my parent’s home ever since he explained that Regina still wasn't responding to treatment. My grandma’s health didn't deteriorate but it didn't improve either. And that was worrying Robin. “She is in pain, Alpha King. letting her go honorarily is the best thing to do.” Robin tried again. “Ease her pain and I will stop acting emotionally. That should keep her stable right? I blurted. The fear of losing my grandmother couldn't be explained with words. Zadie was still missing and I knew there was a chance I might fail her as well. I was already a failure. I didn't want to–The door to Regina’s room opened all of a sudden and Jack walked into the room. My brother rushed towards me, walking past Chloe a
ZADIE WILSONLaughs were supposed to be beautiful, heartwarming, and easily contagious. However, the evil laugh from this bastard was irritating, heartbreaking, and repulsive.He laughed yet I whimpered. The last few minutes have been nothing short of agonizing. He was so angry when Jack answered the call. He slapped, punched, and broke me. My body was aching and so was my heart.He was about to inject a poisonous fluid into my body when he changed his mind and thought he should try calling Ayden again. One part of me didn't want Ayden to answer the call but there was a big part of me that prayed he would because I didn't know what the poison would do to me. I didn't have a wolf which meant there was no one taking the heat for me. Every blow was affecting me directly and the poison would do the same… I would die faster than people with wolves. “Who are you and what do you want?” My heart slammed against my aching ribs when Ayden answered the call. His voice filled me with relief
CHAPTER 89.ALPHA KING AYDEN“You have to calm down, Alpha King…” Jaxon cautioned me but I was far gone.I was losing my mind… in fact, I have lost my mind. Chloe was crying uncontrollably in Jaxon’s hand while Jack just stood in a corner watching us with wide eyes. I was in pain. My heart hurt so bad yet there was nothing I could do about it. I could no longer control my emotions despite Regina’s condition. Everything was a mess.Although Zadie had stopped screaming, I was more worried. Why couldn't I hear her voice anymore? This was my fault. I shouldn't have acted nonchalantly. And K or whatever the fuck his name may be has taken it upon himself to reveal my identity to Zadie. “What did you do to her?” I gritted into the cell phone speaker, ignoring everyone around me.K laughed again. He must have inhaled laughing gas. “She fainted. How could a weak female like her be destined to be your mate? Well, good for me.”“I am warning you. Don’t touch her or even think about—”“You c
ALPHA KING AYDENEight hours have passed since Robin and I had our unusual conversation.Eight hours have passed since Zadie’s kidnapper gave me an ultimatum of forty-eight hours.Robin has explained some facts about the mate bond; even though Zadie hasn't marked me, the mark on her neck can guide me to her. But for that to happen, Zadie has to be in danger and in extreme pain. It was concerning but I haven't felt anything strange yet. I was also hoping that my parents would arrive before the moment happened. My dad has to be here before I can leave the palace. I sat in Regina’s room, occasionally staring at her and my cell phone screen. My grandmother would have been disappointed in me if she had been conscious. She would probably eat me alive when she wakes up and find out I have put Zadie through so much more than anyone could imagine. Keeping Zadie, a secret should have protected her but it didn't. “We will save her,” Karl assured me even though he was also very much anxious.
ZADIE WILSONI didn't know how long I had been out but one thing I knew for sure was that the moment I opened my eyes, a portal opened within me.A portal of need. I was hungry. I was severely hungry but food wasn't the problem. Something shifted within me and I felt the heat becoming more passionate.The hunger wasn't in my stomach. It was right there between my legs. Right there within my core. I gasped and found myself wanting to be consumed by that hunger. It was strange but it was the best kind of hunger I had ever felt. It did come with pain as it grew yet I wanted more of it.“Now that’s what I am talking about.” The familiar voice of K broke into my trance and my eyes cut to him quickly. He chuckled when he saw my condition. “You want to be touched right? I can be of help.” His irritating voice made my skin crawl and I gagged even though I sort of found the thought of him touching me appeasing. What was wrong with me? “In time, you will stop gagging. The poison is takin
ALPHA KING AYDENA sudden burn on my lips caught me off guard and I felt myself falling. My legs failed as my heart constricted not because I have been running for several minutes but because I was getting punished by the mate bond. “He is kissing her.” Karl spelled it out darkly. My knees touched the ground and I cried out in pain in the middle of nowhere. I didn't know where I was going but that didn't stop me from running towards where the mate bond was pulling me. I was certain it was this way. I could feel every wave of desire that hit Zadie… And I didn't fail to feel the lips of someone that wasn’t me on hers. “Ahhh…” I growled. My fists clenched the twigs that were on the ground and some cut my palm but I didn't stop pushing them further into my hand. I was over… This was the end. “No, Ayden!” Karl growled in my head. Blood and sweat mixed together externally while pain and anger mixed well internally. “If you are feeling like this because he kissed her. Have you sto
ZADIE WILSONWhen he said he would make me beg, he wasn't joking. I have come to realize that whether I was seeing Ayden or K, it doesn't change anything as long as the person with me is K.For the past too long minutes, he had been teasing me even though he would have had his way easily. I begged shamelessly. I couldn't help it and truth be told, I couldn't hate it either. My actions, my pleas, my whimpers… all of them were born out of desperation. I couldn't control my need so no one could hold this against me, right? No one could judge me based on this, right? No one but me. I would be devastated when the poison wears off. That’s if I don’t end up as a wild wolf with no hope of getting rescued. K fondled my breasts through the ting fabric of my dirty shirt. And again, I moaned. “Pl-please….” I whimpered, certainly begging to be fucked. I couldn't feel shame and neither did I see any reason to beg him not to touch me… I craved it. It was like a necessity that would save my l
