I was in disbelief as I parted my lips when I saw how he turned around. He didn't want to grab the opportunity to have an intimate conversation with me. King Edward's action resulted in annoyance in my head because I wasn't dumb for not distinguishing how he wanted me so much. My body was conscious of how he desired me, and I couldn't stop myself from teasing him, forcing him to grab me as bait, like a sin he would love to commit. “Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want me tonight? I know how frustrated you are right now, and I'm willing to receive every frustration in your body while I'm screaming and you're thrusting between my legs.” Seductively, I uttered those words, trying to lure him to take me to satisfy his carnal desire. “Ashianna, we're talking about the councils, yet you bring up having sex with me!” he snapped. His nostrils almost flared as I saw how he swallowed hard, trying to resist the temptation in front of me. As I barked a laugh, I noticed how she maintained
“Ashianna…” Alpha Gunner talked to me, stepping in to fill the gap between us. His eyes were cold as he managed to conceal his emotions while his eyes landed in my direction. Gunner pressed his pinkish lips in one line; his eyes flickered before they filled with a glint of concern as he added, “I heard what happened about the councils. I know how upset you are right now, and you might not forgive them for rebelling against you.”Stunned by his words, I never thought he would act like he was worried about me. I couldn't believe he had dared to put in this act just to make me believe he was my ally. Gunner was such an actor who didn't want to be caught for his mistakes.“Yeah, I don't think I will be able to give them a chance to lead again. You know what's the possible punishment for treason, and that's death.” I answered and sounded upset because of their betrayal. Gunner didn't say anything, but he pulled me to give me a hug. Taken aback by his unpredicted actions, I felt how he tapp
My hands landed on his chest, and I pushed him with force away from me. As my forehead creased, I could feel the annoyance trying to creep into my system. I wanted to slap his cheek. I lashed out my anger at him, but I held myself back. I wasn't dumb enough to waste every effort I had put in just for a simple kiss he gave me without my consent. I didn't know where he got the audacity to claim my lips, as if he had always done that to me. Gunner was such a man who didn't want to lose against King Edward, and if he didn't have the plan to use my child and me as his weapon, then I wouldn't ever do anything nasty against him. Gunner and I used to be friends for the years that passed after I left King Edward's pack. The thought he became my adversary gave me an impact of pain, stabbing in my chest. I once trusted him, yet he didn't treat me the same way I had. "Gunner, what are you doing? Why did you kiss me?" I asked, gasping to breathe some air as Alice kept howling in my head to kill
"Gunner, why are you telling me—""If I can't have you, then he can't have you either." Gunner's tone was more severe than usual, filled with threat, which made me feel the anxiousness in my body. His breathing became heavier, threatening me that I must be away from anyone, especially King Edward, or else he was willing to have me by hook or crook. Slowly, it was very clear to me that his possessiveness was extreme, causing me to fear for my children's safety once he decided to use them against me.He tightened his embrace, and my knees trembled as I started to gasp when he whispered, "I know in myself that I can't be happy if I find you with someone else. You're the only one who makes my heart and mind calm, despite how destructive I am. It's your choice, but whatever you decide has a consequence.""I can't believe you're threatening me right now." I mumbled in disbelief, attempting to remove his embrace from my waist, but he didn't let me; instead, he pulled my neck and sniffed my s
“Beta, what are you doing? Are you trying to embarrass my Alpha?” My beta scolded June; her tone was so firm that even June couldn't hide how scared he was of her. My Beta had a scowl on her pretty face; her eyes glared at him like she was ready to murder him once he had done wrong against me.“No, that's not my plan. I want to apologise for my mistake. I don't want the Alpha Queen to hurt me.” He whispered, frightened, which was more obvious on his face, which I had truly liked. I wish I could see how he almost peed in his pants.“You can say sorry to my Alpha in private. If you want to be forgiven by our Alpha, we want you to do something for me in return.” My Beta flashed a forced smile on her lips before she rolled her eyes. She was too irritated because of June. “Every action has consequences. I want you to meet up after this meeting, and don't you dare inform Alpha James about this or else you will lose your freaking balls.”His eyes dilated in horror, and I couldn't believe tha
“Gunner has feelings for you?” he asked, confirming his suspicions. His jaw became tense, and his gaze ignited, making me realise he was mad. Alpha James wasn't dumb enough to realise why Gunner went to his pack without my awareness. “I thought you two had a relationship, but he's the one who only has romantic feelings for you.”“I love Gunner, but as my friend. He's the only one who helped me when I needed someone the most. Alpha James, same with you; I know most of the Alphas want to help you if I decide to ruin your reputation.” I answered, chewing the meat elegantly before I licked my lips. I saw how he looked at me, like he wanted to rip my clothes, and he banged me in front of the servants.“Thats how my friendship with him looks. Gunner is one of the men I can trust.” I added without breaking our eye contact. Gunner might do anything to remove Alpha James from his path just to have me. That was how possessive he was to me.Alpha James didn't say anything, but I noticed how he k
“Alpha James, I don't understand what you're trying to point out.” I didn't want to slap on his face that he was wrong. However, the more I acted to tell him what I had felt for him, the more he assumed that I was doing this because I have secret feelings for him.“Alright, I will act like I don't know.” He scoffed, like he didn't want me to feel humiliated because he finally cornered me. His eyes roamed around, and as his eyes flickered, I noticed sadness in his eyes before he added, “I heard you've been trying to have a peace agreement with the Lycan King. Are you sure it's only for our community's safety?”“I know what I'm doing, Alpha James. Despite my past with King Edward, I need to act like a true leader in our community. I don't need to use my personal issue on him because our members are the ones who are important here.” I explained. I sounded like I was trying to have business straight with him. I couldn't understand why he acted like he was sticking to my own business, desp
"Alpha Ashianna!" I heard a familiar woman's voice. My head kept spinning, and I didn't know how I ended up waking up in the middle of my sleep. My eyes roamed around, fear enveloped in my heart as I wrapped my hands around my stomach, like I was so damn scared to lose my baby.I didn't know how it was; possibly we were in the carriage while I saw how dark it was outside. My beta caressed my cheek, calming me, and I bit my lip to stop the tears that were about to fall on my cheek."Alpha Ashianna, it's better if you will never cry. I already asked someone to send news about what happened." She whispered at me.My head shook aggressively, and I felt the pain in my chest that was about to cause discomfort in my system. My beta kept uttering some comforting words while she continued tapping my shoulders."What happened? I can't remember everything." I muttered and felt embarrassed that I had fainted when the carriage stopped on the spot. My beta chuckled like it wasn't a big deal, but it
