Chapter 10 What I heard and saw astounded me. I couldn't stop thinking about what had happened earlier even while Gina and I were cleaning a room in the palace. I was aware of the rumors about Alpha Greyson being cruel, but I also understand that it is a leader's responsibility to be cruel and strong in the eyes of his subordinates so that no one despises him.However, seeing the truth with my own eyes shocked me. I've long admired the Alpha King for his elegance and intelligence in all aspects of life, but I can't accept that he would sacrifice an innocent life to achieve his goal.I had no idea that knowing the truth could be so painful. But it's funny how, even knowing the truth, I can't stop my heart from loving him. "I noticed you’re quiet the whole time?" Gina inquired."Because I can't get what happened earlier out of my mind," I admitted as I mapped the floor of the room, we were cleaning."Perhaps you're shocked because this is your first step here in the palace, but such a
Chapter 10.1"Fuck!" yelled Alpha Greyson angrily. We all took a look at their sides, and it was amazing how quickly Alpha Greyson removed his vest and clothes! When I saw his masculine and very manly upper extremities, my jaw dropped. He has an extremely detailed body that any woman would kill to touch! Damn it! I shouldn’t be thinking about this!When I saw how the guards held Joan while she cried for forgiveness, I stopped staring at Alpha Greyson's body."Please forgive me, Your Majesty! It will not happen again! Please spare my life and forgive me!" Joan begged as the palace guards held her tightly. I was startled by the coldness seen in Alpha Greyson's eyes.I feel that he is very far away from me. Only now did I truly realize how different he was from the person I thought he was. I just realized that I knew him wrong. Alpha Greyson stepped towards Joan and gripped her jaw tightly. Joan winced and cried."Amara... Bow your head! You shouldn't be seeing this! " Yna said by my sid
Chapter 11 Mrs. Clea quickly snatched me up, went to my room, and shut the door. Yna and Gina were left outside while Mrs. Clea was tense inside our room. "Don't you know how dangerous what you did was, Amara?" Mrs. Clea’s voice was angry. I bit my bottom lip because I knew Mrs. Clea was right. I consider myself fortunate to be alive. Because it's wrong no matter which way you look at it."I'm sorry," I admitted regretfully. I overheard her sighing incongruously. "The last thing Vikki wants you to do, Amara, is get involved with the Alpha King because you know how dangerous he is!" Mrs. Clea said as I bit my lower lip. Is the Alpha King's attitude truly so bad that she fears for my life?"Is he really that cruel, Mrs. Clea?" I asked, looking her in the eyes. I've seen everything earlier, so why don't I believe it now? Is it true that I am so blind to the truth that I refuse to accept everything?Mrs. Clea came up to me. "You are very beautiful, Amara, and this must be one of the reas
Chapter 12 I was trembling as Gina and I walked toward the dining area. I'm not sure what I'm feeling. As I walk behind Gina, my hands are cold and my face is turning pale."Gina..." I called out to my friend. She looked at me. "Why?" she asked, concerned. "Are you nervous? " She obviously asked, and I quickly nodded. She sighed and grabbed both of my shoulders, looking into my eyes."Don't worry, just obey everything the Alpha King wants, and you'll be saved," she preached to me. I'd like to make a complaint. So, what if I want to fight? Even if I'm just a housekeeper, I don't want my personality to be trampled on.The Alpha King should treat his subjects as a treasure, not as slaves! Eventually, I just nodded to Gina. I can't do anything because he's still an Alpha king no matter what. I had no choice but to follow.When we arrived at the dining area, I immediately formed a line with the other housekeepers who were present. I noticed the Alpha King sitting at the head of the long t
Chapter 13 I observed Mrs. Clea, who was agitated in front of me. Gina, Yna, and I are now in Mrs. Clea’s office. After what happened at the Alpha king's lunch, Mrs. Clea is obviously concerned.But I can handle myself. I know it's dangerous to get close to Alpha Greyson. Maybe now he is planning how to torture me. I accept everything again. All I have to do is be strong until I find Shena."Mrs. Clea, I'm fine; you don't have to worry about it," I said to calm her down. She came to a halt and turned to face me. I couldn't see what was in her eyes, but I could tell she was worried about me."No, Amara, you don't know Alpha Greyson; he's...too much for you," Mrs. Clea expressed concern. I sighed deeply and bit my lower lip."Mrs. Clea how about we just make Amara run away now?” Gina suggested. I quickly shook my head at Gina. "Don't! If you do that, you will be the ones who will be punished! I can't let that happen, Gina!” I strongly refuse.“But…Gina is right, Amara. You will be bett
Chapter 14 Despite Alpha Greyson's sharp and cold stare, I remained silent. I couldn't respond to him. I'm not sure either. My parents died when I was very young, and I grew up there. Where did I come from if I'm not from this kingdom, as they claim?"I-I apologize, your Majesty...but even I couldn't answer your questions," I humbly said while bowing. I could feel him moving away from me. I bit the inside of my lower lip. I'm not sure why I noticed even when he moved away from me."Leave," he said. I raised my eyes at him. All I can see is the coldness in his blue eyes. Something was going on in my stomach. I bowed once more before exiting the room. When I walked out of the room, that's when I realized how nervous I was.I pressed my chest against my heart. I am afraid, but I know that my nervousness is not solely due to fear. I've always had feelings for the Alpha king, and even though I knew his entire personality, I couldn't let him go.Beta Miguel approached me to deliver Alpha G
Chapter 15 I still can't believe what happened. I watched as the color of blood mixed with the warm water from the shower that was running down my body. I'm most likely in the Alpha king's chamber right now. And I can't even think about how I got into this situation.I'll never forget what he said. From what he said, he made it clear that I was just prey, and he didn't want anyone else handling me. I can't stop being angry. I can't help but be annoyed by the Alpha king.Why does it seem as if he owns everything the way he speaks? He acts as if he doesn't care about other people's feelings. He can kill in an instant without hesitation. I was reminded of the woman who nearly begged him to save her child. But no matter how much mercy Alpha Greyson professes, there is none to be found.I still can't believe it. Alpha Greyson's heartlessness, mercilessness, and cold-bloodedness astound me. But why is that? I'm well aware of Alpha Greyson's bad behavior, so why does my heart continue to pr
Chapter 16 My mind did not process everything Beta Miguel said. That kept going through my head. I couldn't believe I had a connection with Alpha Greyson. I'm not sure. I never imagined this would happen. This time, I'm also curious about my ancestors.I have a feeling that my presence in the palace today is not solely due to my search for Shena. I know there is a reason for all of this. So...I need to figure out who I am, what I am, and where I came from.I awoke early the next morning because I hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before. Another thing is that Beta Miguel did not provide me with enough food last night to satisfy my physical needs. But I'm grateful for him nonetheless. This time, I know I can rely on Beta Miguel.After getting ready, I went to the housekeeper's hall with Yna and Gina to accept work from Mrs. Clea."How are you feeling?" Yna inquired, concerned. Gina is as well. I nodded quickly. I don't want them to be concerned about me any longer."Yes...I'm fine,
Epilogue I found her in the town of Tyreese. Miguel helped me in locating her. I still don't totally trust Miguel, but I need his knowledge at this point. The officials assumed Miguel was dead, so he remained dead for everyone. I'm the only one who knows he's alive, and he's discreetly helping me in finding Amara. According to his narrative, a human couple took her there and treated her as if she were their own daughter. I was relieved to learn that she was still alive. I had almost given up hope for over two years, but when I found out she was still alive, I couldn't help but meet her immediately and clasp her in my arms. But my sense of hope was dashed when Miguel revealed more facts about her. "While investigating her traces... I discovered that the human couple had taken her to the hospital for humans, so I went there to inquire about Amara's medical information and found that... she couldn't remember anything from her past," Miguel continued, making me stand up in irritation.
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 10) But things became much more complicated when Elder Mateo accused Mrs. Clea of spreading the accusations against Amara. It greatly affects Amara. Mrs. Clea is her friend; therefore, I understand her emotions."What should we do, your Majesty?" Elder Raymond worriedly questioned as I considered the plan."Everyone will believe you're on the wrong side if you try to protect Mrs. Clea. They could use this as an excuse to dethrone you! Perhaps we should just let it all go and wait for the appropriate moment to strike!" Elder Raymond proposed. My jaw clenched."I can't let Amara... get into this," I replied quietly. If I take it any longer, Amara will get angrier with me. Damn it!"But..." I sprang up and prepared to respond before he could speak. I went downstairs in stealth to see Mrs. Clea. As I saw them torment Mrs. Clea, I couldn't help but feel enraged. I just stopped when Miguel spoke."What are we going to do if she doesn't confess?" Miguel asked Mateo."Tha
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 9)I focused on finding Dylan. I'm not going to let him hurt Amara again. I'm not going to let him touch Amara again. I will go to whatever length to remove him from this world. But every time I fail to find him, I am filled with rage and restraint."Someone is betraying you, your Majesty," Elder Raymond warned me when I saw the survivor of the troops. I sent a group to look for Dylan, but they failed like any other squad. It seemed as if someone was watching our movements and calculating our intentions before we could attack. That's when I realized something wasn't right. I knew something was wrong the moment Prince Henry died. I was so preoccupied with Amara these days that I forgot to focus on that part."I know," I grumbled. Elder Raymond fixed his gaze on me."And do you know who that is?" he wondered. My jaw clenched. I already feel about the Elders, but I'm not sure who I'm thinking of. And the thought of his becoming a traitor enraged me.But despite the pr
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 8) I convinced myself that I felt all of this for Amara because she was what the Moon Goddess desired for me. Because if I don't, I might fall into a trap. I don't know her. I knew nothing about her and couldn't believe the Moon Goddess had chosen her to be my mate. What if Miguel really is right and she is Rema's spy? That's why, even though my emotions keep hammering inside me, I'm doing everything I can to put up a barrier between us. It was like a protective mechanism. I don't want her to cause me any more misery than I already have.That's why when she told me that she loved me before our wedding day, I couldn't deny that I almost believed her. What if this is really her plan to make me fall for her and then hurt me? That bothers me. I don't want that. That's why I kept my distance from her. But before the ceremony of our wedding, Miguel reported something to me."There's a chance she's Princess Harper, your Majesty," he said. I clenched my teeth. Really? Is
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 7)"Her name is Amara Brooks, and she is an orphan from the Western Regions. She is not a member of any packs, and... There's not much information about her," Miguel informed me. I stared at that girl's documents, in her photo, and the more I stared at her picture, the more I noticed resembles between her and the Princess of Rema Kingdom."I want you to investigate further," I said, and Miguel quickly nodded and left my office. If she is the Princess of Rema Kingdom, why couldn't she mention anything about me? Her eyes are screaming with indifference, which means she doesn't remember me or anything. Or maybe I was wrong? Maybe I was just thinking too much?But, if she is the Princess, why couldn't I find her while she was just in the Western Regions?I took a deep breath and everything was decided. I couldn't wait any longer for Miguel's investigation to be completed. I want to get to know her right away. So, I appointed her as my personal servant. If she is not ne
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 6)"We need to find your mate now, your Majesty, to reassure our people," Elder Mateo remarked as we sat in this conference room for our meeting. I've had enough of our present issue for quite some time. We just ended our kingdom meeting and are now coming down to do this. The topic about my mate."I told you; I couldn't feel anything or anyone inside the palace, or even the Kingdom," I grumbled."Then, your Majesty, we must throw a party in the palace and invite every woman living inside or outside our lands to find your mate," Elder Samuel advised. I clenched my teeth. That's how the meeting concluded. I was opposed to us throwing a party, but they thought it was a wonderful idea.I'm not very interested in finding a mate. I was preoccupied with being the Alpha King. And I was busy searching for someone...When I heard a knock on my office door, it brought my thoughts to a halt."Come in," I invited. Miguel walked into my office. I locked my gaze on him. I'd noti
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 5) It's not the time to slack off. The Princess has gone missing, and I can't even find her scent! The Rogues' attack killed the couple I had asked to watch after her. After the attack, the Rogues fled, and now I can't find Princess Harper!"We can't find her scent, your Highness; perhaps she's left the North Snow lands," Miguel stated to me. I clenched my hand and gritted my jaw. This is not a good sign. The Princess has been missing for two days."Then searched for her outside the lands!" I grumbled."But... your father will notice us—""I don't fucking care! Just find her!" I yelled angrily. Miguel stopped speaking and quickly obeyed my orders. I gritted my teeth as I stared at my wine flute. As time went on, my anger toward Dylan grew stronger. I don't care why he does all of this. All I want is to kill him and put an end to his craziness.Just like Miguel said, my father immediately noticed the entry and exit of my men."What have you been up to, Greyson? Som
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 4) I prepared my men to find Rema's princess. It's a covert mission. I didn't tell the Rema Kingdom about the reason behind my actions. I also know that the people of Rema may be skeptical of our actions because they are beginning to despise us as a result of the war between the kingdoms. That is why I need to do this in private.Miguel accompanied me as we strolled through the forest. It was strongly snowing. Miguel and my men have both transformed into wolves. Miguel is older than I am, thus he can already turn into a wolf. I clenched my teeth as I recalled my father's words. Even without my wolf, I know I can do it. But I'm sure it will be difficult for me however, I am confident in my sword skills, but I am also aware that our opponents are stronger, especially in wolf form.Nevertheless, I am still unable to turn into my wolf. I am still unable to awaken it. I just know I'm far too young for it."Is this the right way?" Miguel said over our mind link. I gave
ALPHA GREYSON (Part 3) As the Rema rogues thrashed me with a steel bar, pain radiated throughout my entire body. Their nasty chuckles could be heard. As one of them burned the skin on my back, I screamed in pain. I clenched my teeth and balled my fist in an attempt to bear the pain. When I closed my eyes, an image of a girl went into my head. Those emerald eyes…"Sun meets the ocean... ocean meets the sun... stars scatter across the midnight sky..." that sweet and calming voice. Everything is fresh in my mind now. Those torturous nights were over. Someone saw me after they dropped me somewhere. It was that girl…I rapidly arose from my supine position. As I gazed around, sweat beads dripped down my brow. My heart was pounding in my chest. I was having a nightmare. I gulped hard and realized I was in a nipa hut. When I felt something fall off my body, I looked down. The herbal that covered my body had fallen off. Someone... cleaned me up. Herbs and bandages were used to hide the injur
