Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 46: Moving On
They say, how are you supposed to grasp the future when you’re still clinging on to the past. It was a quote I’ve always reminded myself of back then. Back when it was peaceful, the dread wasn’t around and we weren’t holding the world on our shoulders. As for my case, when that night never came. Breathe in . . .Breathe out . . .I tried to level my head tinto focus. Shooing the black dots puckering up my vision. Before I knew it, Calvin’s orbs turned into midnight black with worry plastered on it. I was back in the Imperial Pack with Lucius in front of me, holding my shoulders as I sat on top of the table.How did I—“Wh . . . yo . . . hey . . .” His words were blurry. It’s not reaching my ears due to the penetrating sound of something that seems to be ringing. “Maryna!” Lucius’ voice increased and my head went back to where it came from. “W-what?” I muttered, still unconscious.His brows creased as he assessed my features. “Fuck, you’re shaking.” he hissed and took some water fr
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 47: Room Renovation
“What do you want to do for the day?” I raise my gaze towards Lucius. We’re both in the bed, I was already bathed. You could say we were both clean. He did his best scrubbing my body in that bathroom after all.Yet after what we did last night, he still got some stamina to go for another round. A beast indeed.I smile at him as I bite a piece of steak off my fork. Lucius ordered some Omegas to simply bring in a tray of food.“I’d love to look around your palace more.” I grinned. His brows shot up and turned to me. “Our castle, Maryna.” He muttered, a serious look on his face. I nodded, though not understanding what that actually means. We’re still running through the contract, right?“—and should we go together?” he asked. I roll my eyes, shaking my head. “Who knew the King could be this clingy?” I scoff. He narrowed his eyes on me. “No, I would love to do this myself. You know, familiarize myself with the workers and all.” I shrug.We both agreed and the moment we finished eating, d
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 1: He Found His . . . Mate?
Blood began to coagulate around the edges of my wound, and I tried to accustom myself to the loose bandages.I got used to being hurt and the pain. Killing is a part of my life. Slitting throats doesn’t always feel comfortable. But seeing how it brings satisfaction to my lover and to my people, I’m willing to dirty my hands a million more times for it.That's what I am, mostly what I was raised to do.I kill to expand his territory, and I attack packs after packs to do that“Any last words?” I murmur with no hint of remorse onto the dying man pinned down by the force of my own feet onto the marble floor of their own pack house. It was the Alpha of the small pack we are currently in the midst of attacking. I am even surprised our Alpha, my very own man isn’t here ending this himself. “Please spare my family.” was all he said, staring at my own eyes. We were both filled with void. He, who has nothing more to give than his own life, and me who’s here trying to give everything for the m
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 2: He Gave Her The Room
I don’t know what’s happening anymore. Normally, the people in the pack are quite predictable. I impress them by continuous victory and they cheer me up on it. But the moment I saw their intense gaze locked on Raine. I knew something in this pack would start to act differently. I know my life would start to rotate in a different path. I’m fairly sure Calvin and I would rule this pack side-by-side and I even dreamed so forwardly as to how we’re going to raise childrens together. Never have I ever thought that his mate would someday barge in his life — our life, because I was certain he would choose the love blooming between the both of us. I know I would. I can resist some matebond just to be with him. Unfortunately, he cannot. After what happened, all I could do was flash an awkward smile at the crowd’s hostile stares. Before I could even explain further that I really don’t have any ill-intention towards Calvin’s mate, Raine once brought the attention to herself by announcing
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 3: That Is My Dress
“L—LET’S go eat.” I mumbled gripping the other pair of the earring before going out as they were still trying to console Raine. My mind was blank as I walked out with a mix of feelings swirling around my head. “She's not even the Alpha’s mate. How can she be so proud of being the Luna.” one of the Omegas behind me said. The martyrdom in my expression was probably obvious enough for them to spout something that could have their heads cut if I heard it, but they’re fairly aware that I can’t say anything with my heads up in the clouds. When I was finally outside, that was when I felt all the oxygen entering my lungs and my head working properly. Just as I thought, everyone is on her side. It felt suffocating to have the people you thought you could trust turn their backs from you. That is excruciating. Gnawing the insides of my cheeks to prevent the distress and the heavy thoughts cloud my external appearance, I walk down the dining room. Everyone in the pack house was already on t
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 4: It’s Not Yours
THERE are things in life that mostly equate to a huge fragment of us. Perhaps, like tree barks engraved with two children’s short-lived love promise. Or a pirate-hidden treasure chest in a remote island. Or a puzzle piece that’s not supposedly there, but still it’s there and though you don’t need it, you let it sit there as a keepsake, because it’s important—because it holds a part of you that could never be held by others. That is what that dress means to me. That dress she’s wearing. that’s mine. The mark on the tree, the treasure chest, and the puzzle-piece the former Luna left before she had taken her last breath. And I am the only one that should be wearing it. “W-what?” Raine’s lips evidently quivered as she stares right into my eyes. I was livid, and perhaps it showed right through her weak frame. I don’t care though. She could cry if she wants, Oh, heck she could, Right after she takes that dress off, because it was mine. I can endure every consequences my actions to
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 5: Are You Jealous?
THE gooey texture of the soup never failed to fulfill my needs of satisfaction at this very moment. It didn’t flow fast nor too slow on her lowered head. Its speed was good enough for it to cover every strand of her annoyingly coloured hair. Its slimy consistency was enough to know that if it didn’t look right on her hair, then it definitely wasn’t supposed to taste good. A smirk slowly plastered on my face as she shivered right in front of everyone. The pack warriors were about to hastily close the door to avoid any audience seeing, but one glare from me and they stood rigid in their spot, holding the door open. Everyone has to see this. I run my index finger on her hair before bringing it to my mouth for a taste. I cringed before smirking. “I’m off to bed. I don’t think I like the taste of the food. I hope you do though, considering you’re . . . covered in it.” I smiled before turning around, but of course, not until Calvin’s growl stopped me. Of course, the knight in shining ar
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 6: Raine’s Song
“WATCH me take the Luna position away from you.” I almost shivered in disgust at her breath grazing my ears. My hands instantly found their way pushing her away with brutal force just like the last time.Though unlike the former, Omegas scurried to hold Raine, preventing her from hitting the ground.How she got those Omegas on her side so fast these past few days, I would never know. She muttered a few words of consolation, saying that she’s okay, towards the Omegas surrounding her and they pushed her up.Her eyes burned with determination and mockery as those icy orbs stared back at my black ones. She was cunning and she knew it. She knows she can take anything away from me in a blink of an eye. Or perhaps she wouldn’t even have to bat an eyelash for this one. Calvin was bound to give the position to her either way.I take a step back before stomping on the ground, a groan coming out of my lips before I leave the training field. she’s definitely not getting what she wants.Definite

The angels and the pre-Richard paintings were glowering at us. Sharing our breaths in front of all the delicacies laid out on the table, remaining untouched. After every single food in here, he chose to feast on me. “That was not even a compliment for me and I am already on the edge, trying to fight the to fuck you on this table.” Lucius whispered beside my ears. The cold air coming from him was radiating on me like a shadow, a smoke, power and a very strong one at that.“The dining is indeed beautiful, I am in no place to lie about that.” I smile at him with a little tease slipping out of my lips. His eyes darkened whilst mine widened. The tease has gone too far!Those midnight black eyes looked down at me with burning lust beneath them. A fire that’s definitely going to hurt. I breathe in to fill the missing air my lungs were reminding me of taking, and Goddess, I shouldn’t have.I can smell the pre-ejaculation cum in the air, inside his pants. The echo of our ragged breaths reve

“I don’t get what you’re trying to say, Dawn . . .” I mutter, scratching the back of my head. Of course, I know what she’s trying to say. But, those who angers you, conquers you, so let’s leave her to that.“You were a criminal, right?” She mumbles. I bite my lip before nodding, putting down the utensils on the side of the plate. “Innocent. I was innocent. There was more to the story than—” “Of course there is.” She exclaimed, smiling at me. I turn to the door, waiting for Lucius and his Beta to come back. Lucius isn’t where he is when he should goddamn be!What am I even thinking?! Dawn means no harm. She’s a close friend of Lucius so mind what you say.“You’re going to be a queen, right? A Queen that was once a criminal, exiled from her pack. How ironic!” she mumbled and I nodded. It’s a truth I’m quite ashamed about, but still a truth nonetheless.“What do you think the council would have to say about this? I mean, it’s like the rags to riches love story.” I raise both my brows a
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 43: Dawn Eyre
“Oh! Delta Dawn must have missed the Alpha King’s presence, she’s been going around asking every official when he’s going to come back! It would be the first—” The Omega who’s taking care of my hairstyle blabbered, yet before she could utter one more word, “Shut it.” Beta Duke gritted his teeth as he glared at her. His ice blue eyes were enough to keep my knees tucked in fear that it would be seen quivering. The Omega who’s still holding the hair brush in her hand closed her mouth but was left baffled until her eyes widened in realization.I furrowed my brows at The Imperial Beta’s sudden outburst but stood from the vanity chair nonetheless. I smiled at the now ashamed Omega before following Beta Duke. His back was tense, it was evidently showing but he’s trying to keep his pace right in front of me.He can’t be faster than me, traditions always say that the one who called, will be the one who leads.A small smile crept on my face, it seems to me that the Imperial Pack is filled with
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 42: Do That Again
“What’s your name, lady?!” One of the kids eagerly asked. I awkwardly flashed him a smile. “Maryna, I’m Maryna Gauntlet.” I scratch the back of my head before turning to Lucius. He nods to me as if reassuring me that I’m doing great. I smile to myself before heading towards the large castle that’s been waiting behind the large crowd.With Lucius in nothing but shorts, and I, in ragged clothes, the both of us went inside, the imperial warriors separated ways on the doorstep and did their own business of washing up. Maids instantly jumped to my aid while pack members as well as people who looked like council members talked to Lucius about pack business.He just came home, can’t he at least borrow some time to change and clean up from the journey?I forced a smile on my face while the omegas tended to my well-being. I peek at Lucius and they were still talking, the man seemingly reporting about rogue control on the borders. “I’m coming now.” Lucius growled, my eyes widened at him. “W-

“I’ve eaten and chewed on tons of enemies and you’re saying that this tiny body of yours won’t be able to ride on my back?” Lucius tilted his head, genuinely confused. I bite my lip at his exaggerated comparisons.I’m going to ride his back, it’s not like he’s going to eat me, I’m sure I’ll fit right in his wolf’s stomach though. My teeth crunched as I clenched it with all my might. He’s goddamn stubborn!This is wrong in so many ways! Another person cannot touch nor pet one’s fur unless they’re a family or are mates! This is taboo.My eyes caught upon Aaron’s who’s flashing me a reassuring smile before nodding. Lucius turned to where I was looking and growled at the man. “Is his wolf bigger than mine?” Lucius mumbled out of nowhere. My eyes widened as I look back at him, he’s smiling but his eyes are creepy! “N-no . . .” I mutter. This feels like cheating on someone and we’re not even a thing.“Fine, then ride him.” He grumbles before turning around. My eyes widened and Lucius stopp
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 40: Keep Him Warm
Maryna’s POVMy eyes widened at the cold thing that made contact with my back. I was about to sit up when someone pushed me back to the pillow.I was laying on my stomach and a hand with something that felt gooey was being put on my skin. I groaned and turned to look at the other side and Aaron sat there, focused on his work.“What are you doing?” I asked, groaning. “I’m an apprentice herbalist.” He mumbled, cutting another group of leaves and dipping it in a bowl with goddess knows whatever was in it.“I’m not asking what you are. I’m asking what you are doing, Aaron.” I wince when a wave of headache surges through me from raising my voice.“Relax, My Lady.” She pressed my head back to the pillow. We were back in a tent and the sunlight outside was bringing the insides some brightness.“As I said, I am an apprentice herbalist. All of us who came with the Alpha King are apprentices, whether they are warriors or servants.” I wince once more as she puts something on my scar that I can st
Loving The Alpha King Instead CHAPTER 39: LUCIUS
LUCIUS DIMITRII lay the boy unconscious on the ground, glaring at his insolent pretty face that dared to seduce my mate in the forest. She was close to him as she trapped him in the tree. What were they doing there?Million thoughts ran through my head at what they could have done in that forest. Most of them are horrid. Whatever happened there, I don’t think I’ll ever know.Anger surges deep within me. Both anger and arousal at her fearless demeanor. With hie she intimidated that pup, she will surely make a great Queen.But that would mean that I’ll have to make her obey me first, and getting an inch close to a man in a private setting is not even close to being obedient.“Where is she?” I growl at the warrior behind me. I flick the cigarette butt on the side, the calmness seeping in.Smoking is my main hobby. That, and sex. It’s a package, a good combination. “I saw her head over to the lake, Your Majesty.” He announced and I waved my hand in dismissal. Alright, Maryna Gauntlet, l
