Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 32 : A Night of Surrender (2)
Drifting on a warm cloud, I slowly awaken in Jordan’s arms and to his heart-stopping smile. “Welcome back, sweet one.”Catching my breath, I can’t speak for several moments. I just lay there quietly with Jordan, who rests his forehead against mine and cuddles me. The biggest orgasm of probably both Kent’s and my lives–accepted and given–isn’t the only reason my tongue is still. I feel like I touched heaven, and that makes a girl pause. But it’s more than that. The emotion of the day floods me. “That was amazing,” Jordan whispers. “You were amazing. You’re incredible. He’s never dropped his guard like that, even in front of us. I know it seems like he was in control as he usually is, but in reality, you have tremendous power where he’s concerned.”“Really?”“Really. And the sexiest thing ever is that you don’t even realize it. That’s such a beautiful thing. It’s one of the reasons Wiley is wild about you and me, too. Kent trusts you so completely.”“Even now?”He strokes my hai
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 33 : Morning Mates
The delicious smell of coffee, bacon, eggs, fruit, and pastries makes me open my eyes after our first intense night together. A night that I feel in every muscle in my body when I stretch out. It’s a delicious soreness that tells me I’ve been thoroughly well-loved by all my mates.Reaching out for them, I discover I’m alone in Jordan’s king-sized bed and the smell of breakfast seems a lot closer than the dining room. My mind mulls over the astounding change over the last twenty-four hours, and I release a content sigh. Yesterday I thought I’d never see their faces, dead or alive. Yesterday, I wondered if I’d be alive this morning, or whether I’d be sitting on the cold stone floor of the dungeon.Today, my heart feels light, and my mates are alive, and we may just have a future together. It’s only the beginning, but at least we’re free to go on this journey as mates. My silk robe feels especially good against my skin, and so does the leisurely walk through my mates’ bedrooms to the
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 34 : Capable of Anything
Catch my own father using his trap for the kings. Can I do that?The idea makes me feel like I’ve just plunged into a rushing icy river. I have no idea where the current will sweep me away.On the other hand, my father dropped me in this situation to begin with, just like he tossed me in the pond near our home when I was seven to see if I’d panic. To see if I could swim. I did. Spluttering and splashing, I made it to the water’s edge only to realize I could have stood on the bottom all along. It was shallow.It didn’t make any difference to Mom, though. Her angry shouts rang in my ears and I thought she was angry at me until, in a rare display of fury, she shoved my father into the water face-first. He looked ridiculous facedown in the pond. I tell that story to my mates, who all shake their heads. “If I were your mother, I wouldn’t have stopped there.” Kent’s eyes are flinty.“It takes a lot for her to lose her temper, especially where other people might be watching,” I say.Wi
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 35 : Fake Assassination Plot
His hateful words pierce me full of holes, but I stand firm. “What do you mean? What Alpha? Why would you say a thing like that?”Kent’s eyes flash a warning: Cool it.It’s not easy. Steam must be coming out of my ears.My father avoids the question. “Now, you have your dagger, and I’m sure you can get your hands on Wolfsbane somehow.”“Of course.” I playact a bit. “But isn’t that too obvious? And is it wise to make another attempt so soon after I poisoned them?”“Hmmm. Excellent point. I suppose a few days’ delay won’t hurt anything.”“What do you mean? Are you in a rush?” I ask, making sure my voice is level and not too eager. He growls impatiently. “Because the longer you’re there, the greater the risk of you being discovered.”Not true. It took less than five days. “Isn’t the opposite true?” I ask. “If I'm here for a while, they’ll be less likely to suspect my involvement, yes?”My father pauses for a moment before responding. “You do have a point there, Aurora. Just
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 36 : 101 Ways to Fake Your Death
An hour later, over coffee, Kent is looking over a fairly grim to-do list. “Hanging wouldn’t work,” he says.I shake my head. “Impossible to control. What if it went wrong? How about pretending to feed you wolfsbane?”“We could accidentally swallow it. If I get nervous enough, I might.”I scoff. “You? Nervous?”“Our kingdom and my brothers’ lives are at stake, so yes,” he admits.Like the Alpha my father killed because of me? What did that Alpha have to do with my father? My past, at least before my earliest memories, is a mystery. A big blank canvas. I have no answers to the questions that plague me. And what does any of this have to do with my father becoming power-hungry and wanting to take over the Ruby Nightclaws? Does my mother know any of this? I can no more picture kind, loving Sally Blessing keeping all of this a secret and approving of it than I can fly to the moon.“Okay, so that’s out. Pretending to drown you?”He paces, circling his desk. “Too many variables, es
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 37 : Real or Fake?
Me?The daughter of an Alpha?I sink down and Elayna catches my arm as my legs give way. Her hold braces me and her energy is completely different than last night.Is she showing kindness because I don’t carry Haydon Blessing’s blood in my veins? Or is it because I’m royalty, too?“It’s alright, dear. I’ve got you.” Elayna smooths my hair. My mind is a blank. The only thing I can come up with to say is, “Do the kings know?”“Yes. I came to see them this morning when you were still sleeping.”I didn’t even wake up during her visit. Probably a good thing. I would have spoken to my father about it afterward when I mind-linked with him. I have half a mind to shift and mind-link to ask him myself if it’s true.“How long have you known someone stole me?” I asked.“Oh, my dear. Since you were a tiny baby, I’ve heard the rumors. Everyone knew that a powerful Alpha lost his kingdom and his mind when he lost you. I hugged my sons closer to me the night I heard.”“How did you know–”S
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 38 : My Father's Spy
Still on his feet, Lucas meets my gaze even though he must smell my anger and possibly his imminent death. I give him points for nerve if little else.He rakes his hand through his hair. “Aurora, you have to understand–”I dig the point of the dagger into his flesh. “I doubt the Alphas will.”He swallows, the motion of his Adam’s apple obvious in his skinny neck. “You could just let me disappear and not tell them.”I press hard enough to draw one crimson pearl of blood, accompanied by the smell of burning flesh and a sizzling sound as silver sears his skin. “HOW LONG? How long have you danced on my father’s strings?”“Please,” he begs.“Oh, now you want to beg after you nearly caused their deaths AND wound me up?”His eyes look like wounded prey. Miserable but still determined to cling to his dignity. “You would never have done it on your own. The massage cream proves it. So does your hesitation in slitting my throat.”Disgusted, I withdraw the dagger. “Then WHY did my father
Mated to the Alpha Kings Chapter 39 : Wiley's and Kent's Wild Idea
Give up my mates?It has a cold, sad logic to it.But try telling that to them. I did, and I might as well be talking to their thrones.In the throne room, Jordan is still in full king mode, with Kent and Wiley backing him up. They’ve confined Lucas to his room because he’s agreed to cooperate with them as a double agent and trap my father.He still insists I should run like a coward. Not in my nature, but in this case, discretion may be the better part of valor.Again, try telling that to my mates.“No matter where you run, we’ll find you,” Jordan says, his fingers digging into my shoulders. “And where would you go?”“I have friends in other packs. Or I could cross the fence.”Wiley snorts. “Try to pass as a human in one of those small towns?”“That’s a possibility.”Maybe I could live in one of those hunting cabins humans have. They don’t notice each other sometimes, so I think I could keep a low profile.Wiley bares his teeth. “If you do, we’ll come after you and risk exp
