Alice's POVQueen Melissa was relentless, determined not to let me escape punishment. Despite my pleas and promises, she seemed fueled by anger and vengeance."Fine. If you won't kill your mistress, I'll do it myself!" Melissa lunged towards me, but I managed to dodge her attack.The whole Ravkian kingdom fell into a heavy silence as they witnessed Melissa's furious pursuit. I found myself playing a dangerous cat-and-mouse game, unable to fully harness my wolf power, let alone control it for defense.Alpha Astor finally stepped in and declared, "Melissa, you are a disgrace to this kingdom. Today, you will cease to be its queen, effective immediately. Go and tell your father, I couldn't care less."His howl pierced the air, freezing Melissa in her tracks. The palace was now engulfed in an eerie hush as everyone waited to see what would unfold next."Oh, your words mean nothing to me. Whether you're serious or not, I'll still have to kill her. It's either you do it, or I will," Queen Me
Alicia's POV"Are you sure? I'm asking you to give me your word that she can give birth to an heir," he inquired."Your Highness, My Lord, she's fiercer and stronger than you think. Not to talk of her trying to escape a few minutes ago," the captain interjected, pushing me by the head to emphasize his point."Okay, I will take you by your word then. And yes, if you don't know yet, young lady, my name is Alexander, and you will be my breeder, and I, your Lord," he concluded as he stood up and gestured to his guards to get me on my feet. He approached me swiftly and tore my clothes into pieces, leaving part of my body exposed. I tried to cover myself in shame, while others laughed at my humiliation.He later signaled to his personal assistant to hand over the money to the werewolf captain, who took it joyfully and departed."So, what's your name?" he asked me as he returned to his throne, sitting down while a maid brought him a cup of water.I surrendered to fate, realizing that I was y
Alice's POV After the brief yet satisfying kiss, Alpha Alex released me from his hold and addressed his people, declaring, "And let the party begin." Shocked, I glanced at Ella, who smiled and whispered to me, taking advantage of our werewolf hearing abilities, "Tonight is your wedding, girl. Enjoy." Chuckling, she left the room. Alpha Alex's hand found mine, and I was taken aback. He didn't even ask for my opinion. But then again, does it matter? I'm his possession, and he can do whatever he wants with me. As I tried to process the situation, people of high class started streaming in, accompanied by their partners, mistresses, or girlfriends. I felt rooted in place, too afraid to move, as the event unfolded around me. "Listen, everyone. I would like to introduce Alicia to you. She will not be my Luna, as I'm not seeking a queen yet. I haven't found a suitable one," Alpha Alex announced, observing their reactions as laughter filled the room. Despite being infuriated by their amuseme
Alicia's POV "I'm in pain, please stop," I managed to say as he released his grip, realizing that he had almost choked me to death. As he let go, I coughed severely, tears streaming down my face from the intense struggle. "There's something you're hiding, Alicia, and if I have to find out on my own, it won't end well," Alpha Alex warned, storming away from me in anger. Emerging from my hiding place, I noticed the party was winding down, with the maids already clearing the used plates, spoons, and cutlery. I hurriedly left the ballroom, clutching my neck, still recovering from the earlier fright. Little did I know that Ella had returned, and she chased after me, catching hold of the edge of my clothing. The sudden encounter startled me even more as I hadn't yet fully recovered from the previous shock. "What happened, Alicia? You look disturbed," Ella asked, turning me to face her as I struggled to catch my breath. "I was almost choked by Alexander," I managed to say, still trying
Alicia's POV"Am I your mistress, yet forbidden from addressing you by name?" I confronted him swiftly, aiming to shield my true intentions."You remain my mistress, Alicia, and should grant me a some respect. You possess no entitlement." His retort was sharp, and as I found myself still within his embrace, I yielded, observing him idly as he toyed with the fabric of my nightgown.He pressed his lips to my neck the moment I stood frozen, resembling a rigid log. Yet, I remained unmoved, at least for the time being. His presence exuded a compelling aura, akin to Alpha Astor's, yet more potent.Why was I not resisting, as I had earlier? What on earth was happening to me? These queries echoed in my mind, oblivious to the point where I began to release unabashed moans. I pondered rhetorical questions, understanding there were no immediate answers, lost in the sensation. Arousal had taken over; I could sense my dampness, sending tingles throughout my body within his grasp.Before much time
Alicia's POVJust as I was about to continue questioning Ella, a knock on the door interrupted me. "Who's there?" I asked, stepping closer to the door, leaving Ella, who was still a bit disheveled but attempting to clean her face."Your Majesty, the king urgently requests your presence," the guard informed me."Very well. Inform him that I'll join him shortly." With that, I pressed my ear against the door to check for his presence, but I discerned the fading footsteps, realizing he had already departed."I apologize if I've made you feel uninterested with my..." I swiftly interjected, "No, don't worry about it. We're practically sisters.""I'm eager to hear about your sister's story. However, right now, you need to help me get ready. Alexander has summoned me to the palace," I added."Sure thing. I'll get the bathtub ready quickly," Ella responded, grabbing the basket of roses and other bath supplies she had brought along. She hurried into the bathroom, while I removed my nightgown
Alpha Alexander's POV "Alright, I'll consider it," I replied, observing all of them. I was well aware that declining their proposal would likely lead to a divided kingdom. Despite my strength, my realm had thrived since my father's passing primarily because I heeded their counsel."Understood. However, your input will be required during our next assembly. Even if your partner bears you a child, we would acknowledge its existence. Yet, we cannot permit a child born of a partner to ascend to the throne. Reflect on this," the chief prime minister articulated, bowing slightly. His gaze then shifted to the others, their nods signifying their endorsement of his words."I appreciate your consideration. I'll communicate my decision during the upcoming session," I replied calmly, my gaze fixed as they departed.Observing that I can attain all my desires beyond the palace walls, I have the freedom to engage in any pursuit I choose outside the palace. Yet, within these very palace walls, my exi
Alicia's POVI felt uneasy and turned around, only to spot Alpha Alex emerging from the darkness and approaching me. I remained still, unable to move."Alicia, tell me, where did you stay last night?" Alpha Alex asked once more, this time standing closer to me."I...I just went outside to get some fresh air," I stammered, nearly stumbling as I stepped back carefully from him."Is there something you're hiding, Alicia?" Alpha Alex moved closer, holding my hand firmly."You're...you're hurting me, Alex," I responded, trying to free myself from his grip, which was causing me discomfort."Then you shouldn't have left me alone here," he retorted, making me tremble in fear as he headed for the door and left my room.I sighed deeply, my heart pounding against my chest.I was preparing to lie down and take a nap when a knock echoed at the door, causing me to jolt upright in anxiety. Slowly, I approached the door and pressed my ear against it, sensing a gentle and calm presence on the other si
