Protect Me, Alpha King 38. Coming Clean
Elijah's eyes widened as if he just realized what he just said to me.Was that information forbidden also? The alpha king never ceases to amaze me with all the mysteries and secrets surrounding him and the more I get curious about it. "Sir Elijah? You suddenly went silent. Is there anything wrong?"He looked at me as if he was contemplating whether he should say what he should say or not. Then, after long agonizing moments, he uttered, "Nothing, River. A slip of the tongue. Forget about what I said earlier. However, my stand remains the same. Someone will still accept you even if you are an omega of the pack.""Will you accept me as your mate if it is me, Sir Elijah?""Undoubtedly. You are an amazing woman, River. Do you know one of my fears? It's about my mate finding out what I have been doing all my life. Fucking anyone who wears dresses. And even whores in the mortal world. She will find me disgusting for my lack of self-control against women, River."I closed the distance betwe
Protect Me, Alpha King 39. The Alpha King's Fiancee?
Elijah chuckled in reply. "Like her? No offense, River but there's only one woman that I like. And that's the woman tattooed on my back. I wanted to meet her and see with my own eyes whether she is true or just a figment of my imagination."The alpha king glanced at me, "Are you disappointed, River? Do you expect him to like you?"Disappointed? I was always disappointed, but did I have a choice? I did not. A slave should be unfeeling. I smiled at him, hiding the bitterness in my heart. That was the only thing I could do. "No, Your Majesty. I knew a long time ago no one would like me. I am a servant, Your Majesty. I always remember my place and that is behind the noble's back. And if you will punish me for escaping and for lying, I will gladly accept it, Your Majesty."Elijah stood and placed himself in front of me. Clearing his throat, he said, “Your Majesty, I do not think there’s a need for that. For punishment, I mean. The truth is, River was kind enough to massage my back at the

Alpha King Maxxwell's hands felt warm against mine while I tried to keep pace with him as he dragged me along with him. His hands were full of calluses which complimented my calloused hands as well. Am I a fool for feeling that I felt protected as our hands connected? I felt the tiny bolts of electricity between our hands. Did the alpha king feel that? Or was it only one-sided?If I had my wolf, what would the beast be feeling right now? Happiness? Disgust? Disappointment? Would she be purring?"Where are we going, Your Majesty? I'm afraid Lady Juliana will be mad at me now." And she will pick on me and will target me. She will make my stay in this palace a living hell. The familiarity of what would happen in the future was frightening. He clenched his jaw, not answering the servants greeting him. He stared right ahead as if it was only him in the hallway. "Your Majesty," I called him, grabbing his attention. I tried to yank my hand away from him, to make him recall that I was wit
Protect Me, Alpha King 41. Delta Isagani's Self-Control
“I did not do anything wrong, Your Majesty!” Lady Juliana denied it while the look of hatred directed towards me was evident on her face. Funny how her words were mismatched with what she was saying and doing at the same time. “You did!” the alpha king answered back. “Your claws were out and all of us knew it only happened when we are in the height of anger or aren't in control of our beast. You did threaten River and if Delta Isagani and I did not arrive, I wonder what you were capable of doing, Lady Juliana.”Served you right, I said in my mind. Scold him, Maxxwell. Make her feel the deepest embarrassment she could experience in her entire life. Until the last thing, she would do is hurt me and terrorize me.I loved watching the scenes unfold in front of me as Lady Juliana rubbed her face using her hands. Her eyes softened and unclutched the alpha king from her hold. Tears brimmed her eyes while Delta Isagani looked away, not wanting to see the two of them. Despite the rejection,

River "I will fight for Lady Juliana as long as I live, woman. No one will stop me." I folded my arms and narrowed my eyes at him. What a stubborn man. "My name is not Woman but River. Could you please address me using my given name? I would be grateful for that. And you know what, Delta Isagani?”He threw me an irritated look. “Get over it. Spill.”Look at this man. He looked like a sheep around Lady Juliana, but when the latter was nowhere to be seen, he looked like a predator ready to pounce on his victims.“We don't always have to fight. Sometimes, the best thing to do is to give up if our presence is no longer needed by someone, especially our mate. Let's save ourselves and pity ourselves once and for a while," I whispered. Face reddening, he announced, "Lady Juliana will eventually learn that it is I she needed, not the alpha king. I will do everything I can if she wants me to do something for her. I can move heaven and earth for her. I can serve the head of her enemies on a
Protect Me, Alpha King 43. A Date?
Alpha King Maxxwell and Lady Juliana just kissed! my mind screamed. And Alpha King Maxxwell just saw me gawking at them. Damn it.After talking to Delta Isagani, I stepped out of the castle and wanted to breathe fresh air but the moment I looked up, I saw the two kissing already.I thought they would only speak, but it seemed like they were talking about other things which involved their relationship. The burning pain in my chest continued which I did not even understand why. Why was I always affected when it came to His Majesty's women? It did not like him to begin with! Lady Juliana grabbed the alpha king's attention, wanting to return it back to her and it took me an extra amount of willpower to leave them alone. To force me to walk.Even if something happened between the two, it should never affect me since they were betrothed to each other. Right?Don’t look back, I told myself. And I succeeded despite the difficulty. My feet dragged me to the watchtower. I couldn't fathom lis
Protect Me, Alpha King 44. Mark Me, Your Majesty
Alpha King Maxxwell's sudden shift in his mood puzzled me.“I don’t understand what you are trying to say, Your Majesty. I don’t understand why your mood was suddenly sour and moody. I thought you were already okay after I gave you and Lady Juliana the time to catch up. I did not listen to your conversation. Unlike the time when you called for Nora.”Alpha King Maxxwell’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “You listened to us?” he asked calmly, but the shaking of his hands told me he was feeling the opposite.Damn it. Why did I have to include Nora? I should learn how to filter my words around him. Looking away, I muttered, “For a brief moment, Your Majesty. I was staying in the next room, but Nora was…” I shrugged, not sure how to put my thoughts in words. “She’s quite expressive. Believe me, I walked away after that and went to the watchtower and saw Sir Elijah. And besides, allow me to use the opportunity to say that Sir Elijah and I did not date. We happened to be at the same time. We sh
Protect Me, Alpha King 45. Fix Your Hair First
The clock continued ticking, but Alpha King Maxxwell stood still. His breathing was labored while his hand rested on my shoulder—trembling.Damn. He was fighting for control. That was not what I wanted. I wanted him to lose his con—nothing else. My neck was already straining, and I started feeling the pain, but I managed to stay calm and act sweetly. "What's the matter, Your Majesty? I am waiting.""This is not supposed to happen," he said in disbelief. He mumbled to himself, and I could not decipher what he was saying anymore. My heart sank when he retreated, putting a safe distance between us, took off his shirt, left his undershirt, and threw it in my direction without looking at me. "Wear that, River. I don't want any males seeing you in that state."I glanced at it momentarily and fisted on the clothes as I looked at him with disbelief. The cold never bothers me anymore. "Tell me what's wrong, Your Majesty. I can fix it for you."I did not have bad breath. So why? Perhaps

Protect Me, Alpha King 190. The End
Alpha King Maxxwell“Your Highness!”The door slammed open, and Isagani’s fierce eyes entered my office.All eyes were trained on him. I was having a Council meeting, and it was a protocol that no one would enter the office without permission. “Your Highness!”“What?” I growled. The Council members waited for Isagani, and they were getting impatient. “Do it fast. I still had a lot of things to do.”“It’s about the queen.”I stood.My heart beat wildly. My blood went cold. “What about her?”“She is in labor—”Without waiting for him to finish his statement, I sprinted out of the office and went to the clinic. Why did no one tell me about it? Perhaps she tried to call me? There was a nagging feeling in my mind. But I did not know what it was. With a full sprint, I reached the clinic. The twins were already there.“Your Highness, we are glad you are finally here.”“I-is she okay?”Oh, Goddess. I had never been so afraid in my whole life. W-what if the labor will not be easy?“She is
Protect Me, Alpha King 189. Water Broke
“Your cervix is already dilated, Your Grace,” the pack doctor informed me after doing some internal examination. The moment I entered his clinic, he asked me to lie down on the bed and asked his female attendant to check me, he said, “Four inches, to be specific. The baby is already close. You will be seeing him a few hours from now.”The pain would visit me every now and then, but the interval of the pain was long. This was it.I was going to give birth without Maxxwell beside me.That bastard.He had always been absent. It seemed like he followed my request to stay away from me. After he returned to the dungeon, I rarely saw him these past few weeks, but he would ask the twins to check on me every once. While sleeping, I felt his presence beside me, bringing me closer to his side, and I would snuggle closer to him. The following day, Maxxwell was gone. Then I would think that maybe everything was a dream. Maxxwell never visits our chamber. He let me stay alone in our chamber.Tears
Protect Me, Alpha King 188. Contractions
Princess Leonora was irritating as fuck. She was pestering Maxxwell (when I happened to see them), asking him about foods she wanted to eat. Her pouts were the most irritating of all, while Prince Calixtro was always at her side, guarding her always.As much as I wanted to stay away from her, I failed most of the time. Unfortunately, it seemed like Princess Leonora always knew where to find me. To annoy the hell out of me.Was it not enough that he had already ruined my relationship with the alpha king? Let’s just go in the other direction, Quinn, I muttered to myself while touching my belly. I was about to go to the dining area, but it was still early. Perhaps the princess and her brother were still there. I had to control myself now. That included my emotions. Any moment from now, I will be giving birth. The pack doctor kept on telling me that I had to walk more so that I would give birth easily, which I was doing right now by evading the princess and walking more. I had to go
Protect Me, Alpha King 187. Square One
River WilliamsIt was resolved and decided (with my insistence) that the princess would stay in the palace until she gave birth. Prince Calixtro also insisted that he would stay at his sister’s side until that time, never leaving her side.I was amazed at the degree of their closeness to each other. If it was that beautiful to have a brother, how I wished I had one. After the heated argument between the four of us, I went back to the alpha king’s chamber while the latter tailed me.“My love,” he started again. “Will you please listen to me? My love. I beg of you,” he pleaded. I glanced over my shoulder. “Don’t my love me, Maxxwell,” I snapped. “Do you think everything will return to normal after what you did? I’m not happy about your infidelity. I thought you would never touch any woman again!”“I never touched anyone. It was only you. Like last night.”Normally, it made me blush when I recalled what happened last night, but now…it did not. We met servants along the way. They gave
Protect Me, Alpha King 186. Terrible News
I woke up later than usual.Stretching my body, I blinked a couple of times. Then, I smiled as memories of what happened last night flooded my senses. Everything was beautiful. The mark was burning on my neck. The severed bond was restored. My body was sore from our late-night activities. But it was one of the most delicious things that could ever happen.A slow smile made its way to my lips. Maxxwell was great in bed.I definitely love the sex and the different positions we did. Despite being pregnant, I realized I could still enjoy sex the way I wanted it to be. Maxxwell had taken me over and over again despite being scared that he might harm us. After reassuring him again that nothing will happen, he was back to being an animal. And I loved that beastly attitude. It was raw and erotic at the same time. My hands went to Maxxwell's bed space. Frowning, I glanced at my side. The bed was empty.The disappointment was an understatement. I was looking forward to seeing him when
Protect Me, Alpha King 185. Pleasures
Warning: Sexual content.---------------------Being the initiator of this kiss, I titled Maxxwell’s head and locked his lips with mine. I moaned as sparks flew between us.‘More. More!’ Sunflower screamed in the background, drunk by the pleasure because of the kiss. Feeling bolder, I thrust my tongue and reached out to his. Maxxwell seemed to know what I wanted. He nibbled my tongue, and I moaned in pleasure.My head was spinning at the intensity. Fuck.I wanted more than this!My hands traveled all over his body. Just everywhere. Everything felt hot wherever I touched, and Maxxwell shivered under my touches.“You like my hands all over you?” I whispered below his ears. I threw back my head when he kissed my neck and gave me tiny bites. “More than you could imagine, my love.”My love.One of my favorite endearments so far. I bit my lower lip when his big palm found my breast and gave them a slight massage.“Fuck. Why are you so good at this, Maxxwell?”Against my neck, he rasped,
Protect Me, Alpha King 184. Forgiven...at Last
I was about to laugh at him when I realized Maxxwell was truly scared. His body shivered.I turned serious. I loathed this man still, but why did I want to consider his feelings? Why did it feel like laughing at him made me a bitch?“Hey. Nothing happened, Maxxwell.”He shivered against my body and hugged me even tighter as if letting me go would make me disappear from his sight. “Are you okay?”“Zenith had already died on me. I could not accept it if you and my son would follow. I cannot fathom any more deaths.”’Maxxwell shook uncontrollably. Zenith. I broke away from him, and he looked me in the eyes. I was searching for something. But what? “Do you still love her?”He smiled sadly. “With all my heart. She continued to occupy a part of my heart.” He swallowed repeatedly and lowered his gaze. “I’m sorry, River. But Zenith will always have a space in my heart. We’ve been together a lot. I thought she loved me for real. And even if she betrayed me, I continued loving her. I’m sorr
Protect Me, Alpha King 183. Don't
I was right. The alpha king was in the dungeon and was torturing the man for information that he would or may not fish out from him. Even if I was still in the mouth of the entrance, I could hear the man's screams of torture.I wondered what kind of torture did Maxxwell gave?On the other side, someone was snoring peacefully despite the screams. I tilted my head and looked at Delta Isagani. He did not stop tailing me. "Is there like some kind of hidden room inside the dungeon?" For torture? "That is classified information, Your Grace.""Classified? How come?""Only a few chosen trusted men know about it.""I doubted it's a secret."Here it was. The alpha king's hideout for the meantime.The urge to see him again was too strong. I want to see him. With that in mind, I gathered the hem of my clothes and stepped forward when Delta Isagani stopped me. "You are not allowed to enter, Your Grace," Delta Isagani informed me. "Why not? I have been here a couple of times. Sleep in the dun
