Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 43
Emily’s POV. Dawn came earlier than I anticipated, rays of the morning sun seeped through the windows and landed on my face. A groan escaped my lips. I tried to move, but my body felt heavy, like it didn’t belong to me. “Hello, bella.” My eyes fluttered open and I caught sight of Calix staring down at me at the foot of the bed. “I- I can’t move my body!” He chuckled. “Are you sure you can train today? We could reschedule,” he said, his voice laced with concern and amusement. “No! We’re not rescheduling anything. I-can-do-this.” I said each word as I forced myself to sit up on the bed. Calix watched me amusingly and shook his head. “You can be stubborn. We’re rescheduling; You can barely move!” I eyed him and groaned as a dull pain rippled through my waist. “I’ve told you, no rescheduling,” I rasped. For the first time, I noticed he was already dressed up for today, wearing a pair of dark-blue breeches to match with a white tunic and black boot

Emily’s POV. A shiver charred down my spine at his command. It wasn’t just his words but the way his eyes darkened as he stared at me; reminding me of how he pleasured me the other morning by the window. I was wearing two-piece sleepwear made from expensive silk. The top was a sleeveless chemise of a pale ivory hue. Its neckline was adorned with delicate lace and small embroidered flowers in white and gold thread. The second half was a matching silk skirt. It was long and flowing, with a subtle shimmer that caught the dim light of the room. The waistband rested gently on my hips and was secured by a silk drawstring that flowed into soft pleats beyond my knees. Slowly, I slipped the top over my head, the soft material gliding down my arms before I dropped it on the bed. Calix’s gaze widened slightly, his dark eyes trailing over the sight of my bare skin. When his gaze lingered on my brea,sts, his jaw tightened, and a faint flush crept up his neck. He glanced away for a moment, as

Emily’s POV. “I’d like to ride with Lady Leia—alone,” I said, and an awkward silence fell in the courtyard, just like the other day in the dining hall. “What?” Leia gasped, staring at me as though I'd grown an extra head. Han’s eyes were as wide as meatballs and Calix stiffened—his gaze flickering suspiciously between Leia and me. “Yes, thank you.” I offered them a warm smile and took the footman’s hand, stepping gracefully into the carriage. I settled into my seat and then popped my head through the window. “Are you coming, Lady Leia?” She glanced at Calix as though seeking his permission to proceed, and then gulping, she gazed at me and smiled. “Of course, Your Highness.” She joined me in the carriage and the footman shut the door. Across the window, Calix and Han continued to gaze at me even as I tapped the carriage and the chauffeur moved forward the carriage. Moments later, Leia and I exchanged a quiet glance as the three carriages came to a brief stop at the castle

Emily’s POV. The sun dipped low in the sky as we arrived at the castle, casting long shadows across the courtyard. The air was tinged with the coolness of dusk, and a light breeze rustled the banners hanging from the castle walls. Our carriage halted before the grand terrace and Calix stepped out first, his movements fluid and commanding. He turned to me and offered me his hand. A smile tugging at my lips, I took his hand and he helped me down the carriage. We proceeded to the dining hall and settled down to a sumptuous dinner, after which Calix and I steered upstairs to our room. “Please sit.” Calix gestured at the couch. He disappeared into the washroom and came out with a remedy box. “Allow me,” he said, and took my bruised arm. His touch was gentle as he cleaned the wound, his focus unwavering. “What was that in the morning?” he asked, breaking the silence that’d followed. “Why did you suddenly ask to ride with Leia?” He tried to hide it, but there were traces o

Calix’s POV A faint breeze swept through the battleground as Han and I descended from our carriage. My gaze settled on my mate, and Leia disembarking from theirs. Their laughter echoed softly across the grounds, the easy camaraderie between them igniting an all-too-familiar sting of jealousy in my chest. I tried to ignore the way Emily leaned closer to Leia as they exchanged words, their expressions effervescent. The sight tightened the knot of frustration coiling up inside me. “Do you think something is going on between those two?” Han whispered, glancing at me. “Not in the way you’re insinuating,” I snapped, though the uncertainty in my own voice betrayed me. “Then what is it?” Han pressed on. “Because I’ll be honest, it feels like they’re hiding something. Something big.” “Obviously, there’s something they know that we don’t,” I replied and glanced at my beta. Han frowned, his brows pulling closely as he stared back at me. “Do you think it’s about Leia’s mate?”

Calix’s POV. At my command, Han had mind-linked the chauffeur and our carriage steered toward the castle’s gates. However, I glanced across the window and couldn’t comprehend the shocked expression on my mate’s face. Just moments ago, she was eager to spend time with my cousin and now that I was granting her heart’s desire, she was acting shocked? Facade. It was all a facade, I guess. Our carriage continued past the castle’s portcullis and rode down the drawbridge. “Do you have any special place in mind for visiting?” Han asked, breaking the silence that’d followed in the carriage. “Let's just ride around the town for now,” I said. “I just need to see the people and how they’re going about their day.” I glanced at Han, and he was holding in a laugh. “Spill it.” “Did you suddenly remember your people after a little friction with your mate?” he teased. “You’re impossible!” I rasped and he laughed. But he was right though. Since I arrived at Tyr, I’d been engrosse

Emily’s POV. My cheeks burned as I realized I’d just been caught ogling him. This shouldn’t be happening, I should still be mad at him for coming home with someone else’s scent on him. But Moon Goddess, how could one man be so devastatingly perfect? Those broad, powerful shoulders, the enticing dusting of hair across his sculpted chest, and the ridges of his abdomen, carved like the finest stone. And then, lower still, the weight of his masculinity—bold and imposing, a silent promise of strength. It was almost too much to take in, leaving me breathless and dazed. “I-I,” the words caught in my throat and refused to form. “What?” he asked, a teasing smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. “I’m still angry at you,” I finally said and looked away. His laughter reverberated throughout the room as I strolled to the window and gripped the ledge. More than anything, I wanted to go back to him and hit him hard on the chest, but the thought of standing so close to him with his membe

Emily’s POV. The moment my hands wrapped around him, a growl tore from his lips. For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. My hand felt so small against the sheer size of him, trembling as I held and felt him. He was warm and impossibly hard, yet the skin of his shaft was so soft like velvet. I dared to glance up at him and his head was thrown back, his lips parted as he sucked in shallow breaths. The air between us thickened, the room narrowing just to the two of us as I began to explore the length of him, Leia’s teaching flashing the back of my mind. “Emily, you’re playing with fire,” he groaned, and I couldn’t help the small smile that tugged at my lips as I stroked him. “Maybe I want to get burned,” I teased, my fingers brushing the base of his hard length. He lowered his head and our gazes locked—the hunger in his eyes capable of burning an entire forest. I knew I was playing a dangerous game but I couldn’t bring myself to stop. There was a thrill in testing the limits of his

Emily’s POV.Three years later...“...ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,” Calix counted with his eyes closed and the pups wouldn’t stop giggling as they scurried about the castle’s garden in search of the best spots to hide.The afternoon sun bathed the castle in its warm light. The trees were perfect green and sparkled with leftover dew from the morning. The sky was blue, dotted with fluffy white clouds that drifted lazily in the gentle breeze.Leia and I were seated on a plush picnic blanket, beneath the shade of a grand willow tree. We watched the game unfold with amused smiles.My ladies-in-waiting—Brielle, Laura, and Adalyn were arranging refreshments on a low table in a corner; pouring tea and engaging in quiet chatter.Rowan, the eldest of my triplets, laughed as he hid behind the water fountain.

Emily’s POV. Few months later... Leia’s anguished cries shattered the stillness of Nirian Castle. Brielle, Laura, and Adalyn, now my ladies-in-waiting, ran around in the room, seeing to it that everything was in order to receive the baby—several staff members stood by, ready to assist. I sat on the bed with Leia, gently massaging her shoulders as she endured the throes of labor. “What's happening?” I asked the midwife. “Why is it taking so long?” “Everything is fine, Your Majesty. The baby has just crowned.” I might not be conversant with all medical terms, but ever since I discovered I was pregnant, I have read extensively. Crowning meant the baby’s head had appeared at the mother’s opening prior to emerging. I turned to my mate’s cousin and massaged her back. “You’re doing great, Leia!” I encouraged. “You’re almost there.” She let out deep huffs and, with another cry, pushed… A tiny feeble cry of a baby filled the room. The newborn squirmed, covered in blood

“Calix!” I cried. He sucked my n,pple, licking, nipping so gently that I forgot how to breathe. I arched my torso towards him, willing him to take more. His lips curved into a satisfied smile before running a tongue on my entire bre,sts. Calix expertly dragged his tongue to my other brea,st and enclosed my ni,pple with his mouth. Reopening my eyes, I moaned as the sensation of his tongue engulfed me. He was sucking me, biting me, teasing me in a way that made my core throb for him. “Calix, please!” I begged. “Yes, bella. What do you want?” “I need you,” I blurted. With one last tease, Calix straightened, his eyes utterly darkened with need. His gaze locked on mine, he grabbed his member and guided himself to my entrance. “You’re so wet and ready for me,” he said, searching my gaze. I moaned as he flicked his rod at my entrance before pressing forward. I gasped and gripped his shoulder for support. Each time he pressed inside, I huffed because it felt as though my
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 83
Emily’s POV. We arrived at the royal garden and Calix gently lowered me back to my feet. Something tells me this wasn’t our destination, but when I glanced at Calix, he was removing his clothes. A flush crept up my neck, my skin prickling with anticipation. Ever since the night Calix and I marked ourselves, we hadn’t made love. “Let me guess, we’re going to be making love in the open air tonight?” I asked. Calix, who was already bare-torsoed, nodded and also twitched his eyebrows as though undecided, before proceeding to remove his boots and then trousers. In a moment, he stood stark-naked before and my poor breath hitched in a way it has never before as I stared down at the strength coiled at his groin. Calix smirked. “I was thinking it was high time I introduced you to my lycanthrope.” “Gabriel?” He nodded. “Are you ready?” My heart thumped with excitement. I smiled. “Yes, I am.” Calix threw back his head and a guttural growl escaped him. His ears elongated, ja
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 82
Emily’s POV. “Are you ready?” my father asked through our mind link. “Yes, I am,” I replied him. A pang of nervousness curled in my stomach as we entered the Sacred Moonlit Court and took our first step down the aisle. But then, I looked at the ceremonial arch and my gaze locked with Calix’s. His gaze softened, and he offered me a reassuring, very charming smile. My heart melted. I broke into a grin just as every chain of anxiety shattered. I scanned the gathering. Standing to my right were Elara and her parents. Calix had invited them after officially introducing us to each other three days ago. Elara smiled and gave me a small nod. My father and I approached the altar. My gaze settled on the Tyrese council members, they stood in the front rows of the court towards my left. Their eyes were wide with intrigue as they studied my father—the alpha who’d haunted them for years. Of course, that was before Calix entered the scene. And to my right, the Nirian parliament st
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 81
Emily’s POV. Five Days later.... The courtyard bustled from the arrival of guests. They moved in groups, their laughter and camaraderie weaving through the evening atmosphere. Inside the royal dressing room, Brielle and the handmaidens, and the royal stylist worked harmoniously to get me ready for my big day. A knock rapped on the door and Leia walked into the room. She was already dressed for the occasion, styled in a sleeveless dark blue gown. It hugged her form elegantly. Her hair was styled into a crown halo, making her look every bit the noblewoman she was. “You look absolutely breathtaking, My Lady. Goddess above! You were born for this,” Leia purred as she crossed the room and joined me before the tall mirror. “Hello, Lady Leia,” I greeted, taking in her radiant appearance. “You look absolutely fabulous.” “In this?” she asked, teasingly lifting the hem of her gown. “Are you sure?” “Yes,” I affirmed. She grinned. “Randolph chose everything himself—the dres
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 80
Calix’s POV. “Land ho!” the lookout man hollered from the crow’s nest. I lifted my spyglass and gazed at the island ahead—Azalea, my mate’s country. Han stood beside me at the bow of the royal ship, his gaze fixed on the horizon. “Are you certain about this?” he asked. I wasn’t certain about this mission. I wasn’t sure if this trip was a good or bad idea. But one thing was sure after my mate brought me back to consciousness last night—I wanted to make things right. I wanted to smoothen all paths and strengthen every relationship between friends and family. Whether I liked it or not, Alpha Thane was family since I was going to be officially starting a family with his daughter. Perhaps, an absolution for him—a second chance to mend the past. “Yes, Han. It’s time to put the past behind us,” I replied, lowering the spyglass and glancing at him. “Don’t you think he deserves a second chance?” Han’s jaw tightened. “Alpha Thane…I don’t trust him,” he puffed. I inhaled deeply
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 79
Emily’s POV. The royal seamstress circled me for the umpteenth time as she put the finishing touches to my gown. Not just any gown, but ‘D gown’ for my Luna ceremony, slated to take place in five days. Calix announced the date for the ceremony during dinner last night. About last night— Well, last night was incredible. Calix had carried me into the washroom, gently lowered me back to my feet, and prepared our bathwater. A slight shiver did course down my spine upon realizing that it was going to be our first bath together. After preparing the bathwater, Calix peeled off his clothes and bless my eyes! My hungry gaze had drifted lower, following his hands as he peeled off his breeches and tossed it in the laundry basket. My breath lodged in my throat as I took in the strength coiled between his thighs. A sardonic smile lit up his face as he caught me looking. “You know, if you wanted a better view, you just had to ask, bella,” he said, and heat rushed to my face. I immedi
Haunted by the Mysterious Alpha CHAPTER 78
Calix’s POV. I was trapped in the abyss, wandering the desolate land when suddenly a bright light appeared above in the sky—the same bright light that had swallowed my mate up moments ago. It’s true, the spiritual controls the physical. Happiness shimmered inside me upon beholding the light, especially as I glanced down at my wounds and noticed them healing at an insanely fast pace. “Calix.” I heard it, my mate’s soft, sweet voice beckoning me. The bright white light swallowed me whole, and my soul swirled back into my body. I jerked and relaxed under the touch of a familiar palm on my forehead. Her scent wrapped around me—that intoxicating scent of lavender and myrrh. My lashes fluttered open, and the world blurred to focus. “Calix!” Leia gasped in the background. “Calix! You’re awake!” she cried. My gaze landed on my mate, just as she staggered. I caught her wrist and held her in place. A faint smile spread on my lips, a feeling of completeness washing over me. “Hell
