I gulped when I turned my head and saw King Aron was sitting beside me. His eyes were sharp on me.

"I-I..."

I paused when his eyes moved from my face and shifted to my feet. He frowned, which made me lower my head to look at my feet.

"Where is your other shoe?" he asked.

Being seen with just one shoe on made me feel uncomfortable.

I let out an awkward chuckle and mumbled,

"Actually..."

I slowly lifted my gaze and turned to the window. I whispered in a low voice. "Some boys were following me."

I heard him scoffing as if I was lying. I quickly turned to face him and shook my head in response. "I swear."

He nodded his head with a look of irritation. "If you roam around alone at this hour on an empty road, what do you expect? Your pack is not safe for women. Your father needs to work on it."

I knew he was right. However, I believed my father had worked on it a lot. But some men were born to be shameless.

The car turned silent.

I kept my eyes on my feet and remained silent. Though I was ne

    'Why would he look at me?' I thought, shaking my head.The car drove away from the pack house, passing through the steel gate when the guards opened it upon seeing the car leave.I sighed and turned around to approach the front gate.However, when I looked at the door, I was taken aback.Zack was standing by the door, his gaze fixed on me."Oh, crap! Did he see the king?"I started walking towards the door, ignoring his gaze. When I was about to step foot into the pack house, Zack asked,"Where have you been? Where is your other shoe?” His gaze shifted to my feet, and he looked at me in disgust.I looked down at my own feet. I was so caught up in thinking about the king that I forgot I was only wearing one heel. I was limping to the pack house with one heel!I took off the heel and tossed it to the side. The other pair had been lost, so it was no longer useful. I stepped forward to the door instead of answering his question.Zack grabbed my wrist and turned me around to face him.I gl

    I was annoyed by the thought of causing such a disturbance to the king. I glared at Zack, saying,"If you dare to disturb the king, then why not?"Zack was taken by surprise. He had not expected me to say that. He might have expected me to beg him not to tell the king."What's happening here?"My father, Alpha Joshua, had just entered the packhouse and noticed what was going on.To enlighten him about everything, Alora rushed over and said,"Dad, Sister lost her mind. We found out who the mask—"I interrupted Alora and said, "Dad, Zack has been taking herbs and tonics from me for free."There was an unexpected silence in the pack house, which was exactly what I needed.Zack's eyes widened as he stared at me in shock. What did he think? I was kidding with him when I said I would tell my father about it?Alora shook her hand and tried to distract Dad. "No, Dad. Nothing is like what she is saying. She was just helping Zack's mom."My father's brows furrowed as he turned his head to Zack.

    It was the day of the pack meeting with Alpha William.I expected the meeting to take place in the morning at our company. However, I was surprised to learn that the meeting would be held in the evening at a restaurant.Who decided to hold a pack meeting at night? Not just a simple meeting, but a discussion about collaboration!I ignored the fact and started looking for a dress for tonight.I was moving the dresses one by one when I heard a knock at the door."The door is unlocked," I shouted.Two maids entered my bedroom. When I turned my head, I saw them holding bags and jewelry boxes.I frowned at them, shut the door to my closet, and walked towards them."What are these?" Glancing at the bags, I inquired.They put the bags and jewelry boxes on the bed and turned to face me."Alpha sent them for you. He said you could select and wear them tonight."I was dumbfounded. "Did Dad send these?"They responded by nodding their heads. I was not sure why I needed to look my best for a meeti

    "Why are you not sitting?"Hearing his question, I gave him a look and asked, "If you leave my hand, then I can sit, Mr. Bentley."He glanced at my hand and let out a chuckle. "Oh, yeah. You are right."He let go of my hand, and I quickly pulled it back. I sighed, fighting the urge to leave the restaurant.'I came here for the deal. So I have to deal with him,' I told myself.I sat down on the chair across from him. I noticed him motioning for the manager to leave. The manager gave him a nod as he left our table.My gaze remained fixed on him. He was Alpha William Bentley. He was his father's sole heir to run the company. According to what I learned about him, he was not very good at business. However, his father had built a big company, and he had become in charge of it. He had the resources that my father required for his business. It might be useful for our pack as well."Miss Flora, I heard you have been sick for the past few months. Are you alright now?"Alpha William's question

    I did not know why, but just hearing about the king made my heart skip a beat.'The king? King Aron is here!'I turned my head, trying to locate him. But King Aron was nowhere to be found."Where is he?"I heard Alpha William asking his assistant about King Aron. I paid attention to their conversation."He is in the lounge area. I heard all the big heads of this pack are there to please him."Alpha William rose from the chair and said,"Great! We should go there to greet him."I stared at Alpha William. He seemed to be very excited to meet the Alpha King. Who would not be? Having the king here in the pack was a blessing for the Alphas. They were eager to form an alliance with him. An alliance with the Alpha King ensured that no one would dare to attack their companies."Flora, let's go and greet the king," Alpha William said to me.I was taken aback. He did not address me by my first name this time, which was surprising. But the main issue for me was that I would have to face the king

    "Your Majesty, please forgive her. She is naive," Alpha William said, drawing me closer to him.I blinked, looking down at William's hand. He held my arm tightly and whispered to me,"Apologize properly, Flora. He is the king capable of killing you here."I got chills just thinking about it. I shook my head, realizing that it was not true. The king would not kill me. He had rescued me several times."Alpha William, did you come here to sabotage our opportunity? We are here to greet the Alpha King. If you want to apologize, have your woman serve the king."Alpha William nodded as he heard one of the businessmen speak. He dragged me towards the couches."What are you doing?" I asked him.“Stay quiet.”He approached the couch where King Aron was sitting. I took a glance at Aron. He was looking at something with concentration. I followed his gaze and found him looking at William's hand, which was holding my arm.For some unknown reason, I did not want the king to misunderstand my connecti

    Aron's jaw tensed. His brows furrowed as if he was enraged. Anger flickered in his eyes.I was afraid he did not like how close we were.I could feel the intensity of his silent rage. The wind blew through the window, touching my face and brushing my hair against his face.He inhaled and closed his eyes then turned his face to the other side.It was as if the wind had mixed with my scent and entered his nostrils, and he seemed to dislike it.I felt embarrassed and quickly moved away."I—I am sorry, Your Majesty," I said in a very low tone.This time, others did not hear me. When they saw my reaction, they began laughing at me."Silly girl! She could not wait and fell straight to the King?"I wanted to just dig my own grave and bury myself. I had felt humiliated before, but this time felt different."You don't need to laugh. If your wives had been here, they would have done more than that."I froze when I heard King Aron's voice next to me. His words were dark and sarcastic. However, n

    I quickly moved my hand away. He glanced at my face with a pair of narrowed eyes as if he was observing my expression.I lowered my head while sitting beside him."Your Majesty, I heard you are eyeing land in our pack. You are welcome to ask our assistant," one of the men spoke out.The tension in the air eased a little as the man broke the silence. Others nodded their heads as they fully paid their attention to King Aron.'He is eyeing some land?' I thought, fixing my gaze on the floor.I was waiting to hear more. I wondered if the land was somehow related to my father's company."Do you think I need your assistance?" Aroan asked, sipping his drink.The man who had spoken out earlier felt nervous after hearing Aron. It was clear that there was no way they could turn the king's favor toward them until the king himself wanted it.The other man on the left couch cleared his throat. "Your Majesty, you know we are the legitimate businessmen to have your favor. If we get a chance, we will

    "What do you mean?"My father's angry voice echoed throughout the study room.I took a deep breath and answered,"He is a coward. He abandoned me in a place full of strangers. He did not care about my dignity.""Are you talking about that night with the king?"I was surprised when I heard him. "Are you aware of it? But you still want me to marry that guy?"My father stood up and said,"Look, he was not willing to leave. In front of him was the king. Who would dare to offend the king? By the way, everyone knows the king does not have any interest in a girl with no origin. If it were Alora, he might think before leaving."Tears rolled down my face. I never expected him to bring it up again.Once again, he reminded me that I was an orphan and he had adopted me. Otherwise, I had no background."Dad, I will not marry him."After saying that, I made my way to the door. My father became enraged by my decision. He spoke up from behind."No one will be worse off than me if you dare to refuse m

    I knocked on the door of my father's study room. He might be busy at work. I was afraid that I would disturb his work. But I came here for an important reason. I would never marry Alpha William. I did not want to."Come in."I opened the door and stepped into the study room. I noticed my father sitting on the couch with the four officials.My gaze landed on Zack. He appeared surprised when he saw me. I noticed him frowning at the clutch I was holding as support.He seemed unaware that he had broken my leg. How would he? He was busy with his so-called Alora.I looked away from him and focused on my father."Dad"My father, Alpha Joshua, stood up from the couch and approached me. He held my hand and helped me to sit on a single couch."My dear, why didn't you call some maids to help you get here?" my father asked.I lowered my head, feeling nervous. I was upset while thinking,'Does he care about me only because of the marriage agreement with Alpha William?’I inhaled deeply while bitin

    I could not believe what she was saying. Why would Alpha William like me or want to marry me?I pushed her with all of my strength. Why was I so vulnerable? I did not have my wolf's strength like hers.The push caused Alora to move from the bed. She held a wall and leaned her back against it.She chuckled when she saw my shocked expression."What? Don't you already know about it? You have been planning this for a long time."I frowned at her. "When did I plan? What are you talking about?"She folded her arms against her chest and replied,"At first, I thought letting you go was not a good idea. I won't lie. I was envious when I heard Alpha William, our pack's wealthiest Alpha, wanted you for himself. Though I am with Zack now, that doesn't mean I would let you be with any Alpha. I believe you should marry another orphan like yourself who will not hold a high rank."Tears could not stop flowing down my face as I stared at her. She had a deep-seated hatred for me. Why? Just because his

    "No!"I shook my head many times. I could not fall for the king.“Kayla, you have asked that question before. I am going to tell you again. There is nothing like that.”Kayla did not talk about that matter again. But I noticed doubts in her eyes.I could not help but sigh. All of my interactions with King Aron came to mind. I bit my bottom lip as I remembered how he asked me to go to him if I needed help.After spending some time, Kayla left the pack house. I lay down on my bed, staring at the ceiling."His arm is wounded. Who dared to attack the king?" I murmured.I was deep in thought when my bedroom door opened.When I turned my head, I saw my father, Alpha Joshua.I tried to sit up quickly, but hissed in pain. I nearly forgot my right leg was bandaged."I heard you got your leg bandaged," My father said, coming over to the bed.He helped me sit up and took a seat on the edge of the bed. He rubbed my hair and uttered,"When will your bandage be taken off?""One month, Dad," I repli

    "What video?"I asked Kayla as I was startled. Did anyone record any videos of the king helping me in the hospital?If they did, how could he dismiss the rumors? He was last seen with me while wearing a mask, and no one knew he was the king. What if I caused his reputation to be damaged here?After all, I was not even the real daughter of an Alpha. I was adopted, a girl who had no idea who her parents were."What's wrong? Why are you looking pale after hearing about another video?" Kayla questioned me suspiciously.I shook my head. "Nothing. I just want to know."Kayla furrowed her brows. "Babe, are you hiding something from me? You are free to share anything with me. I am your best friend."I took a deep breath and decided to tell her everything.Her expression changed when she learned that the king had helped me again."Flora, you can't think it's just a coincidence, can you? You both kept bumping each other without any plan. Or..."I looked at her with interest. "Or what?"I was ho

    "Thank you so much."I said to Doctor Ken, who came outside to assist me in getting into a taxi. I told him many times that he did not have to do it and that I could go alone. However, he kept referring to me as the king's people, saying he did not want to disappoint him.After getting into the taxi, I took a look at the clutch beside me. I did not know how long I would have to use it. Doctor Ken told me that I would be fine in one month. But still, I was afraid of it.The taxi came to a halt in front of the pack house. I paid the taxi driver and got out using the clutch.I applied all of the pressure to my left leg while holding the crutch beneath my arm. I had to limp my way toward the pack house.The guards looked at me with surprise. One of them questioned me."What happened to you?"I looked at the guard with a frown. "Didn't you notice how I was in pain when I left the pack house?"The guard seemed taken aback. He might have had a different thought when he saw Zack carrying me o

    One of the nurses patted my shoulder. "Did you think he was waiting for you here? You may be important, but he is the King."I looked at the empty stool where Aron had been sitting before I left the room.'Did I really expect him to be here with me?'Doctor Ken soon entered the room to review my report. He pinned the x-ray report to a whiteboard and lit it up to show me the result.After circling the back of the ankle with his fingers, Dr. Ken said,“This is where one of your bones cracked. A plaster is necessary.”I was taken aback. "Doctor, will I not be able to walk properly again?"He gave me a surprised look before shaking his head. I was startled. I assumed he was saying I was correct; I would never be able to walk properly again; perhaps I could walk with a limp."Doctor, please do something."He let out a chuckle. I looked at him in confusion.“Please, just relax. You can walk again. But your leg needs some time. You will need plaster for at least four weeks.”I rubbed my fore

    I felt a chill go through me. The air around me seemed to freeze as I stared at the man. He was mysterious, but also dangerous. His eyes had the power to burn anything with his gaze if he wanted to destroy.The thoughts of him killing the people and demolishing the pack made me feel sick.The blood, the war, the cries—everything was something I never wanted to witness.King Aron turned his head to look at me. When his eyes locked with mine, I saw the smirk fade from his face.I blinked and lowered my head. Was I more afraid of him?But his voice was not cold, but rather softer than I expected. It arrived and made its way to my ears smoothly."Girl, you are too young to know who your people and enemies are. Always rely on your brain rather than your heart. Keep your eyes open."I lifted my gaze to meet his eyes again. I nodded my head when I noticed his eyes were calm."Thank you for helping me, Your Majesty."He did not respond as if he was looking through me, attempting to read my th

    I was mesmerized by how he was taking care of me. He knew he could not wander the hospital since he was the king, and it would only give people a chance to start gossiping, so he told the doctor to let the nurses accompany me.Not just any ordinary nurse, but nurses assigned to assist the doctor. The doctor's reaction made me wonder if he was a big doctor.Doctor Ken nodded his head. "I am sending them right now, Your Majesty." He then left the cabin.I cast a glance at King Aron. He remained calm, but his gaze was fixed on my right leg.I felt a burn in my leg as if his gaze was so intense that it was affecting me."I could go by myself," I murmured, although I knew it would be tough for me.He grabbed a stool near the bed and sat down. I gulped, recalling the day when I woke up in the Water Garden Villa."How is your day going at the pack house?"I raised my head and looked at him. He was also looking at me.His eyes were serene but dark. Despite knowing that I could not read them,
