Chapter 98Alpha Kai's POVIt's been two days since Alexa and I arrived. I've been so busy with the war preparations that I didn't have the time to go see her.“Alpha, you look tired. Do you want a massage?” Alexa asks sweetly. Her scent covers my nostrils and clouds my sense of reasoning. I stared at her with a smile on my face. “Alpha? Alpha?” she calls me. I frown. Why does it not sound like her voice anymore?“Alpha, do you want me to prepare your bath?” I snap out of reverie and stare at the maid in front of me in shock.“Where is she?” I mutter, glancing around my chambers.“Where is who Alpha?” the maid asks, sounding confused.“She was right here,” I reply, still glancing around and trying to find her.“I'm the only one here, Alpha. I met you in here alone,” she answers. Was I hallucinating again? I've been seeing her everywhere for the past two days now. It's beginning to drive me crazy.“You may leave,” I dismissed the maid. She bows and leaves. I walk into the bathroom and
Chapter 99Alpha Kai's POVI definitely deserved that slap.“I'm sorry. I was being disrespectful. I didn't mean it,” I plead.“You can take your apology and get the hell out of my room,” she utters angrily.“Just calm down. You are angry, and you don't mean what you are saying. Even though I don't understand why you are angry….,”“You don't understand why I'm angry?” she inquires in disbelief.“Yes, I don't understand what is going in here right now. Why are you so mad?” I ask.“Are you just plain stupid or dumb?” she asks.“Excuse me?” I reply surprised.“You heard me. You have the audacity to stand in front of me and tell me you don't understand why I'm angry? Well, I will tell you. If you have amnesia, I will be glad to refresh your memories. Take a seat because this might go on all night,” she said, gently, sitting on the bed with her legs crossed.I stare at her, unmoving. This is a side of her I've never witnessed before, and to say it is shocking is an understatement.“Why don
Chapter 100Ace's POV“Bring me another bottle of wine,” I order the maid in front of me.“Yes beta,” she said and scurries out of my chambers.This has been my life ever since I stopped talking to Alexa. Wine, sleep, work. More wine, less sleep, more work. The circle has been repeating for as long as I can remember. I was lying and completely fooling myself when I said I could live without her. It hasn't even been a month, and I'm feeling so miserable.Did she cast a love spell on me or something? I can't seem to comprehend why I would love her so much to the extent that I can't think or function properly without her near me.I miss her. I miss her presence, her laughter, her scent, and her voice. I miss every single thing about her. When she left the pack, the pain of her absence was unbearable. This won't do. I have to go and see her immediately.“Beta, here's your wine,” the maid said as she walks in with a keg of wine.“Take it away, I don't want it anymore. I'm going to see some
Chapter 101Alexa's POV“Don't cry, Don't cry, Don't cry,” I chant as I furiously wipe away the tears that are falling freely down my cheeks. I promised myself I won't ever cry in front of the Alpha ever again. I won't cry because of him. But these stupid tears won't just stop falling. “I love you,” I chuckle humorlessly when I remember his words. Love? Does he know what that word means? He has shown me nothing but hatred ever since I came into this pack, and now all of a sudden, he loves me. What did he think? That I will happily run into his outstretched arms? What a joke!I was good. I know I was good. I showed everyone kindness and love, but what did I get in return? Betrayal, pain, sadness, hurt, and more pain. I'm done being nice. I'm done worrying about other people's feelings apart from my own.It's good he said he was going to help me take my revenge. That's all I want from him. I don't want his love. The time I wanted his affection and acknowledgment has now passed. The onl
Chapter 102Alpha Kai's POV“Alpha, there are some files you need to sign, and we still haven't discussed the…,”“I'm not in the mood. Leave,” I mutter with my eyes closed, leaning on my chair.“But, we have to discuss the war. They might attack….,”“I said I am not in the mood. Can't I have a break?” I said as I suddenly sat up, my fists meeting with my desk. The chief looks up from the files he is holding in shock. “Pardon me, but is something wrong? You've never refused issues regarding the pack before,” he said, sitting on the chair in front of me with a worried look on his face.I sigh, running my hand through my hair.“I'm exhausted. I don't think I'm in the right frame of mind to discuss anything regarding war,” I reply.“What happened? Is something wrong?” he asks curiously. I entwine my hands and placed them below my chin, using my elbows as support on the table. “Is it something I can help with?” he inquires incredulously.I stare at him intently with a blank expression on
Chapter 103Alpha Kai's POV“I want every little detail about him. Leave no stone unturned,” I said to him.“Yes Alpha,” he replies.I suddenly stopped walking. I backtrack.“Is something wrong?” the chief asks.“It's Alexa,” I reply excitedly. She has been avoiding me, and now I finally catch a glimpse of her. It's making me feel so rhapsodic.“Where?” he asks, peering toward where I'm currently looking at.“Can't you see her? She brightens up the whole place,” I said to him.“Really?” he inquires curiously. I still when notice some maids stealing glances at us. I clear my throat, quickly recollecting myself.“You must have really sharp eyes,” he said with an amused smile. I ignore him.“You may leave now. I will walk on my own,” I said in a serious tone. “Absolutely. I will get to what you ordered right away,” he replies.“Good luck to your friend,” he pats me on the back and leaves with a shake of his head. I stared at his retreating for a while before looking towards Alexa, who w
Chapter 104Alpha Kai's POV“What is it?” I ask curiously as Alexa gently removes her hand from mine. He looks and sounds quite serious.“The Alpha of the Greenland pack is here with some of his people. They want to negotiate,” he replies.“Negotiate?” I ask with a scowl. He hums.The audacity to come here for negotiation after he sent his people to ambush me.“Let's go,” I said, moving towards him. I halt when I see Alexa following me. I turned around to look at her.“Where are you going?” I asked her.“Where you are going,” she replies curtly.“No, you can't come,” I said firmly.“And why not?” she retorts with a frown.“It's dangerous. We are meeting with an enemy. You might get hurt,” I explain for her own safety. I would not want her to get caught in the crossfire.“I can take care of myself just fine,” she mutters, trying to walk past Ace. He grabs her hand.“Chaos might break out, and it will get bloody,” he warns. She turns her head towards him.“I've seen my own fair share of
Chapter 105Alpha Kai's POVIf I was coming along with Ace, I would never have bothered with the guards, but Alexa came along with us. I trust in her abilities completely, but I just can't take that risk of endangering her and end up regretting it.His face fell, but he quickly masks it with a cold smile. “You are starting to get pathetic. We are only negotiating, and you brought all your guards. Have you lost your bravery? Are you starting to get scared?” he taunts.Before I could speak, Alexa spoke up.“And you are so pathetic and cowardly enough to send your guards to attack from behind without coming yourself. You are so pathetic that you want a pack that, in your own words is being run by 'little boys'. You are so pathetic that you want a pack that has already flourished. Why not just build up your own pack and stop this unnecessary noise,” I watch as Morey's face turns gradually darker. “So don't you talk about being pathetic, else I will be forced to reveal the fact that your t
