Resisting The Alpha King 76
"Are you sure about this Bailey?" Zoe asked for the umpteenth time, while I adjusted my appearance in the mirror. In contrast to how calm I looked, I was panicking on the inside. Maybe panicking wasn't the word, perhaps anxious would be a rather good fit. The churning in my stomach was a good indication that my head and my mind didn't quite agree on what I was about to do. " Bailey, can you hear me?"Oh, I could. Loud and clear too but I wasn't sure I was ready to answer the question. Was I sure about it? No. Did I think it would work? I felt my chances were really low. Would I give up, absolutely not."Are you sure about this Bailey?" She asked again. " Do you think this would work?""To be honest, I have no idea. " I smoothed out the creases that were forming on the bodice of my purple dress. " But we'll just have to find out, won't we?""I guess so. The plan's still the same right?""Affirmative." I nodded before shaking my head and letting my blond curls fall to my shoulders. " Le

I stood by the door of the throne room, ears pressed against the double doors that separated me from Noah and his dignitaries that sat around him. I wasn't keeping tabs on him, but a certain birdie tipped me off that he'd headed straight to the meeting right after our little heated argument in the room. He'd left me speechless and I was sure he was reveling in the fact that he'd won and that didn't sit right with me. So I'd decided to make him pay, one way or the other.Snippets of our conversation from earlier came up and a few words struck something in me.Women are weaker vessels, only to be trampled upon and nothing else. I agreed it wasn't totally her fault, but a huge chunk of the blame fell solely on Anthonia but at the same time I just couldn't pin everything on her. Knowing the kind of man Oliver was, I wouldn't be surprised if he had something hovering over her head, just like his son had over mine. Either way, I would find a way to end all of this. Now that the mystery of

Nothing came to mind the moment I finally left the throne room, but what I wasn't expecting was a fuming Noah, waiting impatiently for me in his room, sorry,scratch that, our room, his face as red as a tomato with him stomping his feet to a quite rhythmic tune if I might add.I left the door ajar, waiting for him to say something. He said nothing, not even a single sound till I slammed the door shut, hardly. But it was then, all hell broke loose."How dare you!!?" He let out in one breath, like he'd been waiting, waiting patiently for me to shut the door. " How dare you!!""Whoa, whoa, whoa." I cooed, my hands rising up in mock surrender. I knew he wouldn't be happy with what went down in the throne room, but ambushing me like this, I did not see it coming. " Just relax…..""Shut up!" He cut me off, startling me in the process too. " You vile woman, you wretched worthless piece of shit. ""Noah." I called, something bubbling in my veins. Yes, he was mad for whatsoever reason best know

NOAH I only had one place in mind, my study. That was the only place that could give me the comfort and solitude I needed. My room would have been the next stop for me but that was no longer possible, someone else had decided to barge in and ruin every ounce of sanity I could get. Yeah, that's right; Bailey Gayle.I fumed as her words rang loudly in my ear. With each step I took towards my study, the voices got louder, her sickly sweet voice threatening to make me go mad. In more time than I'd anticipated, I arrived at the door of my study and barged in, slamming the doors behind me. It rattled in its hinges and for a moment I thought it would fall down. After a few minutes had passed and there was no activity on the door, I headed to my desk and slumped into the chair, my back coming in contact with the soft cushion.A sigh slid past my lips, and Bailey just wouldn't leave me alone."I would never touch a woman…" I heard myself say. I knew I had anger issues, but it wasn't as ba

"Bailey!" I wasn't listening. My name rang all around me but I wasn't listening. I could hear it but I decided not to listen. And there was nothing anyone could do to stop that. " Bailey! Listen to me!"But I wasn't. I pushed a vase off the table, the ceramic piece crashing to the ground with a loud thud. Its pieces scattered, sending a flurry of white ceramic tinged with fiery red tips scattering around the wooden finishing of Noah's floor. Hot headed and barely seeing properly, I side stepped the mess, hoping one of the maids would hear the ruckus I was making and come clean it up. I found my next target, Noah's bedside table. It didn't hold a lot, just a mug and some pens. Another glance and I saw Anthonia's framed photograph. One more look at her pretty smile was all it took for all my sanity to go out the window."Bailey, don't do it." Zoe's whimpering voice was like a backdrop to all the million bad decisions swirling around in my head. She'd been crying for close to an hour no

The sun shine brightly, covering the inhabitants of the earth in a warm glow. I could feel it from the window and Noah's room and the warm weather signified a good day for a walk in the garden. Without waiting to be told, or more specifically, without anyone coming to tell me I wasn't allowed out of the palace, I burst out of the room, my shoes scurrying against the smooth surface of the castle tiles. In no time I was in front of the many doors Ethan had shown me before leaving. My hand gingerly held the doorknob, and the warmth that pulsated underneath my palm confirmed my decision. I was making the right choice and because of this, the door swung open in one push.There weren't any reflective surfaces on the outside, but I really didn't need any to know my face had morphed already, into one of disappointment with a tinge of confusion and a sprinkle of anger. Instead of the sun beating down on the many variations in the garden, the celestial light assigned to rule the day was still u

I wasn't sure the sun was out by the time I was out of bed. I left behind a sleeping Noah and I wondered how he could sleep so peacefully with all the atrocities he'd been committing. How he could sleep so soundly when he hated women and his mother, the person who birthed him. Or perhaps he was adopted? Maybe that's why he was so nonchalant to his mother's cause and every other thing.No, I shook my head furiously. I wouldn't do this. The last thing I would do would be to make up excuses for him. I stared at a snoring Noah, his chest rising and falling with equal breaths he let out through his nostrils. Honestly, he looked haughty in his sleep and I was this close to pushing down one of the pillows over his head. There was no way I could overpower him that's for sure, but I could definitely hold him down long enough to knock out some wind from his lungs and windpipe.An image flashed in my mind and I smiled. I was already painting the picture in my head. Noah breathless after overpowe

"Here you go, darling." My hands wrapped around the cup like object Diana gave me. " Drink up."Whatever was in it was steaming and the aroma wasn't exactly pleasant. It reeked of so many vile things mixed together I felt like throwing up. Diana must have sensed my hesitation to down what could very much end my entire existence or maybe she caught a whiff of the way I scrunched up my face at the smell."It's okay, darling. You can drink it." She called out to me. Like she was giving some kind of reassurance, she raised her cup and emptied its content in one gulp. She looked fine, even though she was as good as a spiritual being so no harm could come to her.She nodded kindly, quietly urging me. I made a quick prayer to the moon goddess before bringing the cup-like object close to my lips. Giving it a gentle push, I tilted my head backwards to allow the liquid to pass through. It was a bit slimy and I almost gagged, until a citrusy flavour danced on my tongue. It was sweet, a little bi

"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
