Resisting The Alpha King 51
I stared blankly as my reflection in my vanity looked me in the eye. Eyeliners and eyeshadows rested around my eyes, with the proper colour of foundation and concealer applied in the right places. My usually pale pink lips were now a bright shade of red like a vampire that had just finished feasting on his victim for the night.I sighed as I picked out the jewelry already laid out in front of me. It was all Laura's doing. She was supposed to be here to help me dress up but I'd insisted on doing it myself. I wanted to be alone. Why? I wasn't quite sure yet. With my eyes still fixated on the mirror, I picked up the diamond encrusted necklace. It was a gift from Noah no doubt and the jewel seemed to go perfectly with my dress for the evening, and yes it was purple too. After clipping in my earrings, I subconsciously grazed the side of my ear. I shivered as the memories of last night came running back."Tomorrow, Bailey Gayle, I'll be marking you as my mate and Luna in front of everybody.

"It's time for me to mark you, My Queen."To say I was hearing bells ringing loudly in my head was an understatement. Cymbals were clashing up there, making my head hurt badly. The fact that Noah just stretched to catch me confirmed my doubts if I wasn't imagining anything. It was real, everything was real. I looked around to the crowd and the pairs of eyes still patiently staring at me weren't unmoving. They fixed their gazes on me, trying to figure out what I'd do next."My Queen." Noah called and I turned back to him. He looked concerned but I knew better than to fall for him. As if confirming my thoughts, he gave a small smirk and winked too. That, set my insides on fire. "Are you alright?""Let me go." I swung my arm below, like I was going for his groins. He bounced back, but not without adding a little grace and flair to it. " Stay away from me.""But I can't ." He cooed, the smirk still on his lips. "The auspicious time is upon us and we should do well so it doesn't pass us by

Jolts of pain spread through my skin, temporarily numbing the area. My eyes were closed so I couldn't see, but I didn't need a shaman to tell me that area was pink, or red even. It was throbbing and with each throb, it felt like I was pumping out a huge gallon of blood. I could feel Noah's breath fan my cheek, causing goosebumps to crawl on my skin. It wasn't your regular kind of goosebumps, these ones were different.I felt disgust crawl over my skin and if I could, I would shed like a snake here and now. But alas, fate wasn't on my side. Instead of feeling hot and unbothered, Noah's breaths were doing the complete opposite."It is done." Diana announced and the crowd erupted in cheers, applauses and whistles flying about. " It is done!""Now, you're mine." I felt Noah smile against my cheek before standing upright. His eyes seemed to rake over me, stopping at the Mark he'd given me before resting on my face again. " You're all mine.""I'm not!" It had sounded fierce in my head, but

A groan slid past my lips as I turned over on my bed, lazily dragging the duvet with me. I landed on my right side and let out a help immediately."Ow,ow,ow " I jerked up immediately. My hand found its way to my neck and I hissed, the memories of last night rushing to me. My skin was still pink with two really obvious spots that stung like crazy. I couldn't sleep a wink last night because it kept throbbing.Was this normal? I had asked myself all night. I hadn't been marked before and I had no knowledge prior about the topic despite the fact that I was a werewolf. Strange right? Well, not for me at least.I didn't know a lot but I didn't think it was normal, it couldn't. Maybe Noah had done something? Maybe he altered the whole thing somehow?Maybe he'd gotten Madame Alexis to give him some sort of concoction to make it hurt so much as punishment. Or probably he'd intentionally beaten me the wrong way to hurt me. Whichever one it was, I could swear on my life, and his life too that he

I blinked a couple of times as my eyes started to water, causing my focus to break for a few seconds. Using the back of my hand, I wiped the tears that were already cascading down my cheeks. I shook my head and hissed, this was becoming harder than I'd thought.The white backdrop stared at me, like it didn't try to blind me in the past one hour. It just stood there and I wondered why we didn't have the same effect on them as they had on us when we stared too much. Do you get? But to be honest, I didn't blame it. The blame was on me for trying to keep my eyes glued to it like my life depended on it .It actually did.Deciding I'd take a break, I headed over to my vanity. I took a seat and stared at myself in the mirror. I looked mad, ragged to be precise. My hair was sticking up in places it shouldn't and beads of sweat built a heavy fort on my forehead. My eyes were tired, they looked droopy and if they fell off any minute now, I wouldn't be surprised.I blamed Ethan for this, after o

I sat down in my room, the colored walls giving me some kind of safety I didn't know I needed. The windows were closed shut, obstructing every ray of sunlight known to mankind, and wolf kind from coming into my room. My legs were tangled up in my dark blue duvet as I took deep breaths, my mind reeling at what had just happened a while back.My subconscious jumped from my arrival at the kitchen, to me discovering I had a reality show going on. But that wasn't important, none of them were. What was important was the fact that I'd heard something,or someone rather stopping me from taking Avia's head and slicing it open with one of the bread knives in the kitchen.I heard voices all the time, my voice to be precise and it was okay. Sometimes, scratch that, everytime, I was talking to myself because that was the only company I had. I was used to my voice in my head and the one that had stopped me from going in definitely didn't belong to me. It didn't even feel like it was mine. There was

Noah The view ahead was quiet, serene and still. The trees stood unmoving, only swaying their branches when a slight wind seemed to ripple through. The night was young and the moon bright, although not particularly full. I glanced at my wrist watch before looking back out at the window. It was late and still no word from him.I wish I could say I was surprised, but I wasn't. I'd predicted this exact same thing and it looked like it had come to pass. If things were any different then I should have received a letter on my desk hours ago.It was Ethan. Just like he said he would, he really did leave before sundown. I did hear rumours from the servants that he didn't till high noon though, but that wasn't the point. He left without telling me and didn't send his usual letter that he had arrived. Normally, he'd send an attached letter written by Michelle cussing me out, but tonight, there was nothing. Neither his nor hers.I went back to the night of the marking ceremony and everything th

I looked sideways for any other beings as I snuck out of my room. The door kissed its frame gently, signaling me that it was now shut tight. I straightened, before doing another sweep of the hallway.It was empty with no guard or human in sight. Some of the lights were switched off and the ones left on cast a shadow on the pillars bathing the hallway in some kind of eerie vibe. Mentally preparing myself, I sighed before letting my feet do their jobs.Unlike the other time, I knew my destination. If I was going to be able to access it or not, was something I wasn't quite sure of. I was also sure I was being quiet enough, but my paranoid mind kept on telling me I was making so much noise even as cold seeped up my bare feet. The walk to the kitchen was long and dreary with different emotions crawling through my mind, that, and Zoe's voice too.Zoe was the name I'd given to my wolf. After our plan to block Noah, we'd started talking more and I found it weird to address her as my wolf so I

"Attention everyone." I smiled giddily as Noah knocked on a champagne glass continuously with a spoon. " I would like to make a toast."Amidst the chatter of people that had died down, my hand found Noah's and the reassuring squeeze he gave made me smile all the more. " After the defeat of the rogues and my cousin that tried to invade the kingdom, my wife and I have good news to share with you, we're expecting a baby."The cheer that erupted from the crowd was massive. From the corner of my eyes at the buffet table, I watched dad wipe off a tear from his eyes. Mum on the other hand couldn't stop mouthing I'm going to be a grandma soon. "On this note, eat, drink and make merry. " Another round of applause followed Noah as he settled back down into his seat next to me. An upbeat tune filled the air as the musicians just at the corner of the stage began to play. What was a wedding with some music, right?"I know I'm not the only one who's been dying to ask this." Mother chipped in. "Wh

I was stunned, stuck in between anger and frustration at his tone. How could he even mutter that, like he didn't just snap my cousin's neck into half."You bastard!" I couldn't stop the tears from falling at this point. " How dare you ..""I told you. " His smile was smug. "She's nothing to me, nothing but a pawn that has served its purpose and she had to go. You're the one I'm doing this for. Join me, be my rogue queen and let's rule this kingdom together."" I…" whatever insults I was about to rain on Eric were cut short by the sound of a horn blaring loudly. It was ear deafening and for a moment after it had passed I could still hear my ears ring. I glanced at Eric and the fury on his face could only mean two things, either he was still mad at me or the horn signified the start of something else. Something neither Eric and I were ready to face. Before I could get any more words out,the sound of stomping feet reached my ears. It didn't take any more time for the owner to come; a rog

The last thing I wanted was to listen to this fool ramble on, but at this point I liked to think the urge to satisfy my curiosity was way more important than anything else."It was a fine cold night." He started in something I only assumed to be his imitation of a poetic voice. To be honest, he actually sounded like a croaking frog on a broken record. " I was pondering on ….""Would you get to the point?" I cut him off. "The faster we talk, the quicker I don't get to hear your annoying voice anymore.""Well someone's in a bad mood." Eric smiled, his huge grin giving him a creepy look. " I wouldn't say I blame you though, Given the pathetic position you're in …""Just get to it!" I snapped, cutting him off. His smile melted into a look of annoyance qnf it was my turn to smile now. " We don't have all day.""Fine." He was less enthusiastic than in the beginning. " I've always had one goal in my life, for a long time and that has been to bring dear Noah down. But you see, my plan had alw

The plink plink sound of water leaking out from somewhere was the first sound I registered when I regained consciousness. Slowly, I peeled my eyes open and it was weird; I felt not an ounce of pain as I wearily stared at my surroundings. Usually, the mere thought of even opening my eyes came with an intense amount of pain. So why then didn't I……"Arghhhhh." I had no idea about how long I was passed out for, but the fact that I could yell so loudly was strange, given that I was supposed to be weak and we'll honestly, dead or halfway dead. " What the hell? What's going on?"It was no surprise that no one else could answer the many questions I had so I decided to take matters into my own hands by taking a quick survey of my surroundings, not like I had so much of a choice anyway. High grey walls stared back at me. From the corner of my eyes I could make out a tiny hole in the ceiling, that's where the leak was coming from. Green moss lined the floors and a pungent smell hit my nose. I wa

I wasn't quite sure what exactly had triggered the excruciating pain in my head, if it was seeing Noah struggling and all tangled up in a net trap or perhaps Eric walking in like he owned the forest alongside the kingdom. I never liked Eric and always thought he was up to some kind of shady business and now he'd proved it. Or perhaps it was even Nita who had shockingly appeared beside this monster or maybe I was just hallucinating after being tortured and unconscious for a good amount of time in this forest. Either way the pain in my head wasn't relieving for one bit and the way the new pair of people droned on, seemed to amplify the hurt in my head."That's Queen Nita to you now." She smirked. " Right Alpha Eric?"I hadn't heard right. There was no way I'd just heard what Nita had just said, or maybe the pain in my head was jugging up my ability to understand sentences now. Yeah, that had to be it."Yes, my Queen." I fought the urge to barf at Eric's words. Underneath that will to vo

NOAH'S POV The atmosphere was tense, the air in the room stuffy. The temperature was humid too and the feel of the damp slimy liquid snaking down my back only worsened my mood. I spun to the large window in the room and realized it was open. It was, so why was I feeling like I'd been dropped right in the middle of a volcano that was just about to erupt. I tore my gaze away from the window and onto the men that stood with me in the throne room, each one a good difference from the others. They were all at alert, each one ready and avoiding my gaze but I couldn't see a trace of the humidity I was feeling. "Was I the only one suffering this predicament?"Any news yet?" The question slid past my lips immediately but I didn't regret it. "Have you found anything else?""Asides the reports that were brought in earlier." The guard who spoke up paused after that. If it was for suspense or he was simply reading the room, I wasn't quite sure. There was one thing I was sure about though, if h

I stood rooted to my spot, the height of the doors towering over me. I'd been here lots of times but somehow, and strangely today and at this moment, I didn't want to go in. I didn't even want to be anywhere near here in the first place. But was it necessary? Yes, highly important even. Did I have another alternative? Obviously yes. Did I really have to inform Noah this time? Not really, but I wasn't too keen on doing this all wrong. I shook my head of the many thoughts and questions that were trying to creep in. It wouldn't take long before they would all swarm me and keep me disoriented for the rest of the day. It was a surprise why Noah hadn't called me out for loitering about his front door for a while now because I was very sure he could feel and hear me, thanks to his heightened werewolf senses. Why he was quiet about it though, I had no idea."I thought you didn't want to come in." He let out immediately the door creaked open. His back was turned to me but I couldn't help but f

I didn't see that coming. I knew yelling and pushing all of his buttons would definitely get a reaction out of him but I wasn't expecting what he just did in a million years. And you know what was worse, I actually let him go further with it. The moment his lips brushed with mine, I should have kicked against it. I should have hit him square in the jaw and given him a kick in the groin. Even biting down hard on his lips wouldn't have been bad. Instead I let him in, and shamelessly let my eyelids flutter shut while I was at it too. He definitely wasn't expecting it, the soft gasp he let out was proof enough. I knew that I knew so little about Noah, but never in a million universes did my mind going to him being a good kisser. Scratch that, an excellent one.The way his lips seemed to move over mine definitely needed to be studied. It was smooth and silky and I found myself aching for even more pleasure his tongue seemed to be giving. With each time our lips collided, something shifted

NOAH'S POV "I have done all you've asked of me, my King." I was barely listening to the man in front of me. I knew he was speaking, hell, I could see his lips work up and down but for the life of me, I just couldn't register one word he was saying. " The borders have been checked and are all under twenty four hours surveillance.""I don't need to listen to you. Any of this." Bailey. Her words buzzed in my ear. It'd been ringing for so long that if I wasn't careful, I was sure I wouldn't be able to recognize my own voice or my wolf's either."Are you listening to me, Sire?" He caught my attention for a while. I nodded and gave a wave of my hand, an obvious gesture that he should go on with whatever it was he was rambling about." There's no way anyone would be able to sneak in. An army of rogues invading, is highly unlikely at this point. Impossible, even."That amount of security and still Bailey escaped, to only the goddess knows where. Where the hell was she? She had been gone f
