“It has been a long time since I stretched my palm. I did not know the receiver would be you, wench.”

It was Lady Juliana. None other than the villain of my life in the palace. I thought I would never reencounter her, confident that the rumors that I was the alpha king's fated mate had reached her.

She inspected her palm as if it was some piece of art. "Here, I thought my visit to this place would never be fruitful. I was glad I came here."

How the heck did she get here? Did Alpha Wade ask for her presence? Probably. She was the daughter coming from a prominent and influential family.

Lady Juliana poked me in the forehead.

"You are a disgusting wench. A sore in my eyes. I hated how the alpha king chose you as his personal attendant when I could do it."

Raw anger overpowered me. It did not come directly from me but from the wolf. She resurfaced, baring her fangs at Lady Juliana.

‘Fight that wench, River,’ my wolf roared in the background. ‘Now that I am at your side, no one can tou

    An arranged marriage between the two packs? That was unexpected. It had only been more than a week since the alpha king marked me, which was probably the start of the rumors about me taking after the throne. But Lady Juliana’s marriage to another man? Too soon.I did not care about Lady Juliana’s marriage. My mind was all about Delta Isagani. Did he know about this union? Or not?I feel sorry for the poor male wolf.It was the alpha king who reacted first at the sudden announcement. “Really? That’s a good decision, Lady Juliana. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding ceremony."“That’s not what I am expecting from you, Your Majesty,” Lady Juliana answered as if she was about to cry. “I thought you would be a little against it since we had some past.”The alpha king gave her a confused look. “I am happy. Truly.”Lady Juliana looked away, clutching her chest as if she was in pain.Did she truly love the alpha king even if they were not mates? Why could she love someone but not Delta

    All we could do was stare at Lady Juliana's retreating form. 'You went overboard, River,' the alpha king said using our mind link. 'Did I? I'm sorry, Your Majesty,' I said, still smiling. 'Your apologies are not genuine.' I winked at him and faced the two alphas. "Now that Lady Juliana left us, is it okay that it's only the three of us who will proceed to the dining area?" I asked. "We can, Your Grace," Alpha Wade answered. When we reached the dining area, Alpha Erik was already there, attending to the servants, and making sure everything was ready. It was a feast. A lot of mouth-watering foods were displayed, an extravagance that I had not experienced in a lifetime. If the alpha king did not lie to me about being his queen, I would be standing with the other servants. I inhaled deeply. Well, I wanted to savor this moment while it lasted. The dinner was an intimate one composed of Alpha Erik, Alpha Wade, and me. It would be more fun if Lady Juliana were also present, b

  • Protect Me, Alpha King    81. Not Zenith, But You

    Alpha Wade inhaled deeply, his hands shaking under the table. He was trying his best not to attack me on my seat. If looks could kill, I would be dead by now. However, I was not afraid of what he might do to me. In fact, I was enjoying every moment of his anger toward me. With the alpha king beside me, I was untouchable. "That's not funny, Your Grace," Alpha Wade said. "I valued my slaves."Smirking, I took a small bite of the watermelon in my hand. Valued my ass. If Alpha Wade said he valued his position and power, I would believe him. But not the slaves. If he did, he would never punish us unjustly. He would never imprison us and let us starve for a maximum of three days so that we would learn our lessons.Alpha Wade made me sick. I wanted to kill him at this instant. I was confident the slaves would dance a happy dance after that. I put the leftover on my plate, wiped the corner of my mouth, and smiled at him. "Kidding? I'm not kidding, Alpha Wade. I practically lived and grew

    The alpha king was pulling a prank on me. That must be it. That was what I realized after he said he liked me. There was no way that he was over with Zenith. My mind wouldn't accept that impossible thing to happen. And why would he like me, to begin with? There was nothing extraordinary about me. I was a slave without a drop of noble blood. I would be a speck of dirt on his throne, and there were a lot of women with royal blood surrounding him.But that is not the kind of man he is, River, my mind said. Which was right. He had chosen Zenith, an enslaved person, as his fated mate, and there was also a chance he would choose another enslaved person. I patted his coat while laughing when I recovered from my shock. "You did not believe me.""Because it's unbelievable, Your Majesty."He was immobile for one second. "It's not."My mind could not accept it. I wanted to see his face and verify if he was telling the truth or not, but I was scared of what I might see. "I did not smell an

    My strength gave in and released Alpha Erik’s collar. “Are you sure about that?” I mumbled. I did not know if I was happy or not if it was Zenith. He nodded. “The resemblance was uncanny. You could pass as sisters, River. Or she can be your mother. She was quite young but could be your mother.”Zenith’s face, as I imagined, came into view. Zenith as my mother? And we both were mates of the alpha king? What kind of sick joke was that? No.It was early to conclude. I needed proof. What if I ask the alpha king about Zenith? Will he answer my questions? “You’re getting paler, River. Are you okay? Do you want me to stop?” I inhaled deeply. “No. Continue, Alpha Erik. What happened next?” Alpha Erik sat on the chair. “When her pursuers nearly caught her, she had no choice but to leave you behind. In the hope of maybe saving you? And then, after securing you safe in the river, she was gone. After that, I called Father.”Whether it was Zenith or not, one thing was for sure. Whoever carr

    I know Alpha Erik, and I did nothing wrong. The man lost his balance and took all the fall, but the alpha king's scrutinizing eyes made me feel I was at fault and deserved his angry stares at us. “Your Majesty,” I mumbled to myself. The alpha king's eyes shifted back to the table and saw the bottle of wine and our three empty glasses. His mood was getting more sour as the moments passed by. “Did you celebrate something? Or is it your upcoming union?”Union? He had a hyperactive imagination right now. With clumsy moves, I scampered away from Alpha Erik. "Your Majesty. It's not what you think," I explained, my words still slurred. Damn it.How would I convince him if I was drunk?Alpha King Maxxwell folded his arms in front of his chest. "I was looking for you earlier when you suddenly disappeared beside me. Only to find you with your ex-mate. I wondered what the two of you had talked about, River. Or maybe I will take my leave so that you will continue what you haven’t finished.

  • Protect Me, Alpha King    85. I Felt Betrayed

    I lost track of time and how much I slept when my back hit the bed. When I awakened, it was already midnight, precisely three o'clock. I patted the side where the alpha king usually slept, but it was already cold. There was a high chance the alpha king never entered the room after I arrived. Sitting, I roamed around and listened to the surroundings. It was dead quiet. The alpha king was nowhere to be found. I hopped out of bed and was halted by a headache. It felt like my head would split open. Damn it. It was because of the drink. I should have never let myself be swayed by that expensive wine. Took about having the lowest alcohol content for the werewolves, only to find it was a scam.I tried to remember all the scandalous things I did while drunk. Until…Images of what had happened at the library resurfaced—our passionate kiss. The alpha king's hands are on my waist—his erotic voice against my ears.My cheeks felt hot, as if I was being boiled. I fanned myself. I did leave

  • Protect Me, Alpha King    86. Midnight

    Lady Juliana grabbed the alpha king's hands and put them in her chest, forcing the man to knead her breast.How much will she lower herself to get Maxxwell's attention?In all fairness, the alpha king did not take advantage of the woman and tried to free his hand.Still not aware of my presence, Lady Juliana said, "This body is all yours, Your Majesty. Take it this instant. I don't care."Disgusted, I walked faster, with my heart hammering against my chest."Lady Juliana. Think of your royal status!" Maxxwell growled. A single tear escaped from the woman's eyes, and it looked like a pearl against the darkness. The woman continued to attack Maxxwell, using her lips. My breathing became labored.Jealousy sprang to life. Not mine. Perhaps it was from Sunflower. The need to protect the alpha king from Lady Juliana's evil plan was stronger. My hand shook. The need to pull out her hair (despite her royal status) became stronger than ever. When I was only a few inches from them, the

  • 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

    “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

    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

    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

    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

    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,

    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

    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
