Enslaved To The Alpha King 37. Through my window
[Layla’s POV]The sweater I had been making for Elsa had just gotten completed. I yawned tiredly as I folded it and placed it on my dressing table, massaging my hands which were sore from knitting for four whole days, coupled with helping Xavier out with his cases.I hadn’t seen him in the last four days ever since we had an argument. Deep down, I felt like I was kind of in the wrong, but I wasn’t ready to admit that yet. I had gotten so angry and emotional and had ended up saying things I didn’t even mean to him, but he didn’t look like he had taken things to heart, so, why hadn’t he come to see me all this while?“Well, he must have a lot on his plate,” I muttered to myself. “Still, how couldn’t he come to see me even once?” I shouted aloud, feeling annoyed.A guard quickly opened the door and looked inside.“Can’t you knock?” I asked in a harsh tone of voice.“I’m sorry, I heard you scream and I was trying to make sure everything was okay,” he explained.“Yeah, it’s not a problem.

[Xavier’s POV]I hadn’t been able to sleep all day, owing to the anxiety I had. No one had seen Jeffrey yet, and he hadn’t showed up either. It was as if he was aware that we were searching everywhere for him, and he had already escaped.I really wanted the rogue’s confession to be all a lie, I really wanted to keep having trust in my best friend, I really wanted to make sure he wasn’t hurt in any way, but the circumstances made it way too difficult for me to have any kind of faith in him.His father had been devastated after his house was searched and the rest of the artefacts were found there, along with a lot of money which he didn’t know his son had been hiding. He pleaded with me to spare his life and to give him a chance to explain himself, but how could I give him a chance and believe him when he was on the run instead of succumbing to being arrested?It was with pains that I had disclosed where Evan and Koss were being held hostage to Roman, but Jeffrey hadn’t been found there

[Xavier’s POV]I swung the vase in my hand and before he knew what was happening, I aimed it at him and it landed directly on his head. I didn’t stop hitting him without mercy even when blood started dripping from his forehead.“What are you doing, Alpha Xavier? Why are you doing this?” he asked, looking at me with reddened eyes as though he wanted to cry.“You sleep with my woman and you’re asking what I’m doing and why I’m doing this?” I wondered aloud.“I swear to you, nothing happened between us,” he said.“So, you just mysteriously woke up naked beside her? Is that it?” I inquired.“I... I don’t know. I don’t know what happened, but I can explain,” he said, but I didn’t want to listen.“Save your explanation for your trial. I do not want to hear any of it now,” I said with disdain.“Trial? Please, Alpha Xavier, believe me. I am innocent and I do not have the slightest idea of what is going on here,” Jeffrey said, falling to his knees.I really wanted to believe him but my rage ha

[Layla’s POV]As soon as he had uttered those words, my heart felt like it had shattered into pieces. He couldn’t be serious, could he? No way.“Xavier, please, give me a chance to explain,” I pleaded with him.“There’s nothing you can say to me now. I saw everything I needed to see for myself. Thank you for making me make a fool out of myself, you did exceedingly well,” he said.“I didn’t do anything wrong. Please, you have to believe me. Didn’t you say you know when someone is telling a lie? Look at me. Do I look like I’m lying to you?” I inquired.He stared at me for a while, then looked away as he moistened his lips. “I don’t know what to believe anymore. I can’t trust my heart, but my head and my head tells me that you are lying to me,” Xavier said.“I am not, I swear on my life!” I screamed out loud as tears continued flowing freely from my eyes.“Of course, you’d swear with something as worthless as your life!” he retorted.“What? My life is worthless?” I asked, taken aback by
Last Updated : 2022-09-19Enslaved To The Alpha King 41. The aftermath of her betrayal
[Xavier’s POV]Three weeks laterI had stood at the door for a few seconds before the guard opened it for me to go in. He had apparently been deep in thoughts about something, but it didn’t change the fact that he had left me standing there for a while.“Why did it take you seven seconds to notice my presence before you opened the door?” I thundered.He bowed his head meekly. “I am very sorry, Alpha Xavier. My mother is terribly sick, and I have just been very worried about her,” he explained.I scoffed. “How old is this mother of yours?” I inquired.“She is sixty-eight years old,” he responded.I gave a snorting chuckle. “Parents die, get used to it. My father lived for forty-five years, and my mother died while she was having me at the young age of twenty-two. To be honest, your mother has lived long enough so I don’t know why you should be so worried because she is sick. If you know that you can’t concentrate on the job you were employed to do, hand in your resignation letter. I do
Last Updated : 2022-09-20Enslaved To The Alpha King 42. Congratulations, you are pregnant!
[Layla’s POV]My eyes were red and swollen from all the tears I had shed over the last three weeks. My body was sore, I had a throbbing headache, a burning fever and I ached all over. I even felt nauseous, and I had a mild cramp in my stomach, but with all that, that wasn’t the reason I was in so much pain. My pain came solely from my heart, and there was no doubt that my tears could fill up a river.No matter how many times I requested to see him, sent letters to him and sent messages through the guards to him, he just didn’t want to see me. He didn’t believe me, and he didn’t want to hear my own side of the story. He was done with me, and my heart ached because of that fact.Had I been wrong in thinking that the bond would continue to exist even if he rejected me? I didn’t know what else to think, except that he probably didn’t feel any sort of love towards me again and I should just stop trying.As I laid on the floor of the prison cell while looking up to the ceiling, I heard a kn

[Xavier’s POV]I belched loudly, then poured more wine into my cup and drank it all in one gulp. I belched again, then began to yawn loudly.“Don’t you think it’s too early for you to get drunk?” Veronica asked, concern laced in her voice.“It’s past 3 in the afternoon,” I retorted, opening the cork of another wine bottle.“Exactly. Why are you drinking so much in the afternoon? It’s not even evening yet, and you’re almost drunk,” she said.“Oh. I didn’t realise there’s a particular time to drink alcohol,” I said with a sneer, and with a loud hiss, I began to gulp down more wine.“You’ve changed so much. Do you realise that? Why are you talking to me this way? Last time I checked, I wasn’t the one that broke your heart,” she said.I stopped drinking almost immediately, and looked at her coldly. One look at her told me she regretted what she had said, but it didn’t stop the rage in me from building. The anger in my heart made my grip tighter on the wine glass and soon, it crumpled in m

[Xavier’s POV]I was drowning in my thoughts when Mr Harvey, the Pack’s doctor and Jeffrey’s father stepped into the dining room.“Greetings, Alpha Xavier,” he said as he walked towards where I sat.“Greetings. Please, have a seat,” I told him, and he sat down almost immediately.“What brings you here? I’m feeling a little bit tipsy, so if you are here to apologise again on behalf of your son, I would advise you against it. I can’t help Jeffrey out in his final trial which is coming up soon enough if he doesn’t admit that he is guilty and shows that he is indeed sorry and remorseful. I’ve said it before and I am saying it again. That’s the only way I can reduce his sentence,” I told him.He cleared his throat. “I totally understand you, Alpha Xavier. However, I am not here for the sake of my son today,” he said.I looked up, surprised. “If you’re not here for his sake, what then are you doing here?” I inquired.He heaved a deep sigh. “It is about Layla, the Omega,” he said.I adjusted

Enslaved To The Alpha King 108. And they lived happily ever after
[Author’s POV]After unlocking the door, Alpha Xavier stepped into the chamber. It was his father’s, and since he died, he had not for once entered inside for any reason whatsoever, mostly because he was ashamed to face him after being unable to find out the person who had caused his untimely death.Everything looked the same, except that dust now made it almost impossible to breathe while in there. He reminisced about a whole lot of things as he ran his eyes over all his possessions which still remained in the chamber. He should have moved in there, but he hadn’t had the heart to.Alpha Xavier took a long look at the picture frame hanging on the wall. It was of him and his father the very day he had transformed for the first time. His father looked so proud of him, and he had been extremely happy because he made his father proud.He drew out the seat next to the table, and sat there staring into the mirror and seeing his father’s reflection staring back at him. His bows and arrows hu
Enslaved To The Alpha King 107. Stay with me
“Almost a year ago, I overheard a conversation between my late uncle and the former Beta here. My uncle had found out that he had been stealing and coveting the people’s wealth, precious stones and our natural resources. Before his trip to the Dark Moon Pack, he said that if the Beta doesn’t relinquish all that he had stolen and make a public apology, as well as step down from his position, he was going to expose him in the most disgraceful manner when he came back, unknown to me that the Beta was aware that I had been eavesdropping on their conversation.“He then called me privately and twisted my mind by telling me he would make me the next Alpha King if only I kept quiet. I was stupid and greedy, so I agreed, not knowing that the price for my silence was my uncle’s life. When he died, I confronted him but he manipulated me into keeping quiet and doing all other dirty jobs for him. I stand here today to apologise for all that I did, ranging from not exposing the truth earlier on, bu
Enslaved To The Alpha King 106. Secrets exposed
[Xavier’s POV]“Your... your highness, it is not what you think,” Veronica said, falling on her knees as she shook her head in negativity.The whole world had seen her shame.“It is exactly what I think it is, you good-for-nothing deceiver. I should have known better than to trust you. You were never pregnant after all,” I roared at her angrily.“I’m sorry. I never meant to do something like this. It was my father that...”“May the goddess strike you down if my name comes out of your miserable mouth again,” her father said, as he stood up and marched to where we were, which brought about more surprised looks from the audience.“Dad!” she exclaimed, as though she had been betrayed.“Veronica!” he yelled back. “All this is your fault, and you know it. If only you had slept with him like I commanded you to, you would have truly gotten pregnant for him since you were in your fertility period, but instead, you chickened out and I had to come up with another solution,” he revealed.“Wait.

Enslaved To The Alpha King 105. Werewolves of the Shadow Pack
[Layla’s POV]I clipped the diamond earrings to my ears and stared at my reflection in the mirror. I looked really elegant, dressed in a long white dress which shone with precious stones that had been affixed onto it, with silver heels embracing my feet.I rubbed my wedding band with a smile on my face as I stood up, then began to walk out of the bedroom. Michaela, who had been trying to finish up her fries looked up, and her mouth was instantly agape as soon as she saw me.“You look so beautiful, your highness,” she said, not hiding the admiration she had for me.“Thank you, Michaela. I should look beautiful, don’t you think? Today is the day that all my enemies will be brought to their knees,” I said, then gave a small chuckle.“Yes, your highness. I am so glad this is finally drawing to an end, and you and the Alpha can be happy forever without anyone ruining your joy,” she stated.I gave a small smile. “You’re right. Peace and happiness are the two things I have always desired in
Enslaved To The Alpha King 104. It pays to be good
[Layla’s POV]I stepped into the room where Jeffrey was being treated as that was where the guard I had seen positioned at Xavier’s bedroom door said he was.He was sitting on a stool next to Jeffrey’s bed. Jeffrey still hadn’t opened his eyes, and he hadn’t even moved a single finger. Xavier looked deep in thoughts and he hadn’t even noticed my presence yet.“Hey, baby,” I said, giving him a kiss on the cheek, to notify him of my presence.He jolted from his thoughts and looked surprised on seeing me. He yawned tiredly and rubbed his eyes with his fingers.“My love, I didn’t realise you came in,” he said.“I noticed. Tell me, what’s on your mind?” I asked, drawing a seat to sit beside him.“I’m just lost in thoughts. I can’t help but wonder why someone like him would do such a thing,” he said.“Who are you talking about?” I inquired.“It’s not something you should be worried about, my love,” he said, forcing a smile on.“Well, I want to know what it is that has kept you away from me
Enslaved To The Alpha King 103. What's done is done
“What’s that supposed to mean? Answer me, come on, answer me!” I yelled at him.“Easy, dear cousin. Shouting isn’t going to change the fact that what’s done is done. In fact, if you yell at me one more time, I may choose to withhold all the information I have to give,” Roman said, sitting up on the ground which he had just been sprawled on a few minutes ago.“Leave us alone,” I said to the onlookers which consisted of the guards and the other prisoners in Roman’s cell.They all began to leave, including Kyle. “Not you, Kyle,” I said, and he stayed back while the rest left. Apparently, the prison guards were going to keep the inmates in another cell.“Want a little private chitchat with your cousin?” Roman asked, with a wink.I crouched, then taking him by surprise, grabbed him by the neck and began to strangle him while he tried to resist as he almost choked to death.“Listen to me, and listen real good. It will cost me nothing to end your life right here and now. The only one who is
Enslaved To The Alpha King 102. It took you so long
[Xavier’s POV]I placed the box which Layla had given me carefully in the safe which always stayed hidden in my closet and looked like just a mere suitcase. No one would guess that some of my important stuff were actually there, and once I closed the door to my closet, I took out the button which had been in my pocket all day and examined it carefully once again.“Kyle. Kyle is back,” I said to myself, hearing the “welcome” greetings which they were saying to him as he hadn’t been in the Palace for a few weeks due to the special mission I had sent him on.I hurried out of my bedroom immediately and slammed the door behind me. The two guards positioned at the door started to follow me, but I told them to stop immediately.“I have a private matter to attend to. Wait for me here,” I said, and hastily left where they were.I was still walking with long strides when I bumped into Lady Millicent who was coming from the opposite direction.“Greetings, Alpha King Xavier. I’m sorry for bumping
Enslaved To The Alpha King 101. Always, Xavier, always
[Layla’s POV]I kissed him back.It was the first time since we had fought, and kissing him now made me realise how much I missed him, how much I loved him... how much I craved his touch.The kiss deepened as his tongue slipped into my mouth, hands gripping me like I was the last piece of oxygen in the world... My body reacted to it before my mind did. His grip tightened on me as I pulled him closer, feeling him grind against me from behind.Our kiss continued until we were both out of breath, panting for more. My hand roamed over his chest, slowly working its way lower. He groaned, leaning down so our foreheads met. He stared into my eyes, his own full of want and need. I moved forward again, my lips brushing against his once, twice, three times before he leaned his head down so our lips met once more, his hand still on my back.This time, it was different. It was soft at first, but quickly turned hard as a moan left his lips when I pressed down further. My lips moved against his, an
Enslaved To The Alpha King 100. I am not okay
[Xavier’s POV]I had been humiliated before everyone, and although I knew I could never feel the pain Layla had felt while losing our child, this was way out of bounds. I was angry, furious and never in my life had I felt so insulted.What exactly had I said that was wrong for her to hit me in the presence of my own people? That had automatically reduced the respect they possibly had for me.“She believes she has you wrapped around her fingers, that’s why she does whatever she likes these days. She knows you love her and you don’t see her wrongs,” Veronica said, while the women and servants present still looked shocked with their eyes and mouths wide open.“Everyone, calm down. Things like this happen. You can all go back to your respective homes and businesses,” I told them, brushing off what Veronica had said.“Yes, your highness,” they chorused.I turned my back around and began to leave hastily to avoid facing further embarrassment, while Veronica hurried after me, trying to pick
