CHAPTER 143: LET'S GET YOU TESTED

Everly:

I was still sitting on the bathroom floor when Beauty walked in. She took one look at me and knitted in-between her brows.

"Luna, the Alpha told me to come and check on you when he was leaving," she said, closing the door behind her. "He commanded me to stay with you and keep you company until he's back."

I scoffed, rubbing my temple. "Keep me company indeed. He's afraid that I will disobey him and show up at the battlefield."

"Oh, you seem to know your mate all too well.” Beauty folded her arms, and took a thorough look at me. “But you don't look too well this morning. Are you okay?”

I rolled my eyes and slowly got up from the floor. "I’m fine, Beauty. Just tired."

She looked at my pale face, and I could see she was doing mental calculation. Beauty was a smart person. too smart sometimes. I needed to distract her before she started overanalyzing me.

"Come on," I said, forcing a smile. "Let’s go downstairs and have breakfast. I’m hungry."

    CHAPTER 144: YOU'RE CARRYING MY PUP EVERLY:Kaelan sat in the library typing something on his phone.I sat on his lap in the, wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed his cheek passionately. My chest pressed against his and I rested my head on his shoulder.“Eat the steaks, kitten,” he urged but I shook my head and grumbled.“I don't wanna.”Kaelan dropped his phone on the table and tilted my chin so he could gaze into my eyes.“Are you alright, kitten?”I nodded . “Yes, why?”“I don't know. Your body seems a bit warmer than normal and your breathing is a bit accelerated. Also, there’s something about your scent….”“I think I just need to rest more, “ I interrupted. “Alright.” He pulled me into an embrace and kissed me affectionately. He gazed into my eyes. “You look pale, baby. Can I get you something else to eat?”“No, I'm not hungry.”“You've been saying that a lot these days. Can I get you an apple?”I shook my head. “I would rather have unripe mangoes.”Kaelan paused and loo

    CHAPTER 145: THE ALPHA’S PATIENCEEVERLY:True to his words, Owen knocked at the door a few minutes later and delivered the unripe mangoes on a tray, already washed.“Thanks, Owen.” I beamed with contentment and dug into the unripe mangoes.Kaelan watched me as if I was crazy. “That thing is going to make you sick.”“Tell that to your heir. It's his fault that I'm craving unripe mangoes,” I retorted.He took the rest of the mangoes away after I had only eaten one. I pouted but he pretended not to notice.Kaelan, for all his strength and dominance, had suddenly become a doting, overprotective mate. He wouldn't let me out of his sight and hovered around me like a mother wolf watching her pup.I wasn't allowed to train anymore. I could only watch them train. As if that wasn't enough, Kaelan wouldn't allow me to lift a thing. After I got bored watching them spar, I decided to read a book on pregnancy. I tried to lift the book from the shelf in the library when I heard his voice."Everly,

    CHAPTER 146: I NEED PICKLES AND CHOCOLATES EVERLY:I wasn't interested in strawberries anymore and we still had them stalked in the fridge. All through the day, I tried not to bother Kaelan with my crazy cravings.But at midnight, at exactly one in the morning, I lost control and nudged Kaelan awake.He groaned. "Babe, it’s late—""I need pickles and chocolate." I demanded.He paused and rubbed his eyes. "What?""Pickles and chocolate," I repeated, sitting up. "Together. And maybe some cheese."Kaelan buried his face in his hands. "The Moon Goddess is testing my patience right now."I poked his side. "You promised to take care of me, Alpha."He eyed me as I was a naughty child who wouldn't let his mother sleep. "I also promised to lead a pack, which is kind of hard to do when my Luna wakes me up at one in the morning for…for whatever monstrosity you’re craving."I pouted. "Are you saying you won’t?"Kaelan groaned, then dragged himself out of bed. "You’re really lucky you’re carrying

  • THE ALPHA KING'S GIFTED MATE    A FATED ENCOUNTER

    CHAPTER 147: A FATED ENCOUNTEREVERLY:Today was the mating ritual ceremony and it was in full swing now. Crescent Moon was alive with music, and laughter, as pack members made merry. Pack members gathered in the grand courtyard, and the fire pits glowed warmly as wolves celebrated their bonds. Alphas from different packs stood in clusters, discussing alliances and strengthening ties. Among them was my brother, Evan, the Alpha of Silver Cross.I had been feeling lightheaded all evening, but I pushed through. This was an important event, and I wanted to enjoy it. Besides, tonight was special for another reason—I had invited Leah, the teenage girl who had saved my life.I made sure Leah stood by my side. I felt amused watching her brown eyes go wide as she took in the grandeur of the ceremony. She had been hesitant to attend at first, but I had insisted. "You’re part of the pack now, Leah," I had told her. "You saved me and Beauty. I want you here."She had finally agreed, though she s

    CHAPTER 148: I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU EVERLY:Evan left Leah and I standing alone as he went back in to join the other Alphas in celebrating the mating ritual.“Don't worry, he'll come to realise how special you are soon enough,” I said soothingly as I tapped her shoulder.Leah nodded and said nothing. We went back inside and I kept her by my side for the rest of the evening.Kaelan didn't give me any attention today, probably because he was engrossed in making sure that everything went smoothly. Being mated to an Alpha comes with it's own bad side.For instance, on our way to the market, a few days ago, Kaelan complained that he couldn't fully perform his duties because I was getting on his nerves.How could Kaelan say that to me? I'm pregnant for crying out loud?I've decided not to be a burden to him anymore.I moved back into my old chambers and took Leah with me. Her mother was duly informed and she had no problem letting her go.Leah was more than willing to tolerate my mood s

I truly did.And making love to me the way he did, I knew I was forever trapped in his arms.The next morning, he carried me down the stairs to have breakfast, "Kaelan," I said through gritted teeth. "I am the mother, not the pup. So stop carrying me about like a pup."He scowled. "Both you and the pup growing inside you are my babies ."I stared at him. "No, I'm not a baby.""You are." He crossed his arms. "Luna, you’re carrying our heir. I don't want you feeling stressed. If there's any way I can help you carry the pup, I would've done it. From now on, no unnecessary movement, no stress, and definitely no stairs."I groaned. "I have been walking up and down these stairs since I got pregnant . What suddenly changed?"Kaelan smiled. "You are growing bigger and your baby bump is beginning to show. How do you expect me to allow you to

    CHAPTER 150: EVAN IS POISONED EVERLY:Early the next day, before we woke up from sleep, Owen was already knocking. Kaelan growled in anger. “It had better be something important or I will have whoever is knocking this early severely punished.”Everyone in the pack knew that the Alpha King hated to be woken up from sleep.“I'm sure it's Owen. But he could have just used the mind link.” I responded.“Mind link won't work when you're sleeping.” he said as he grudgingly got out of bed to get the door.“What is it, Owen?” He sounded impatient.Owen hesitated. “Sorry to disturb your sleep, Alpha. I just wanted to let you know that Alpha Evan has been poisoned.”"Poisoned?" Kaelan’s voice was thick with sleep, but the moment he heard Owen say that, his voice cleared. "How did it happen?""We don't know yet, Alpha. But they said he's in a critical condition." Owen replied.I rushed to my feet but Kaelan held me. “Breathe babe. He'll be okay.”I was already sobbing profusely. “They've killed

But I didn't know she would go to the length of trying to kill an Alpha.“So, what are you planning to do with her?” I enquired from Evan.“I will have her executed.” Evan said firmly. “I made it clear from the very first that I won't tolerate any form of betrayal.”I nodded in agreement. “She deserves even more. She indirectly contributed to the death of our mother. Now she's after your life also. You just have to get rid of her.”Kaelan listened to our conversation without saying a word. Eventually, it was time to go. Evan insisted that Leah must go with him. I made him promise that he must mark her and acknowledge her as his Luna as soon as possible. He agreed.Then we parted ways.Two days later, I got a call from Evan.“Hey, Alpha!” I answered enthusiastically. “What's up?”“I had her executed,” he said with a sad tone .I took a deep breath, already knowing who he meant. “Elena?”He paused fo

  • THE ALPHA KING'S GIFTED MATE    EPILOGUE

    EPILOGUE It was the full moon and the gentle breeze stirred the trees, making the palace look very alluring.Crescent Moon has been peaceful for so many months now. This was a hard-earned peace. The occupants of this pack and palace had gone through years of struggle, sacrifice and resilience.Kaelan stood on the balcony of his chambers, and surveyed the vast territory he now ruled. The once-fractured packs of the country were now unified under his reign, and Crescent Moon had become a beacon of progress. He had built industries that now flourished, and provided security and wealth, while the werewolf college he had also recently built ensured that future generations were educated in both the ways of the world and the sacred traditions of their kind.He heard the soft giggle of his toddler and turned to see Everly standing in the doorway. Her eyes were filled with warmth as she carried her son, Maxine in her arms.Maxine was now a vibrant toddler with wild curls and eyes as deep and

  • THE ALPHA KING'S GIFTED MATE    THE HEIR IS HERE

    CHAPTER 159: THE HEIR IS HERE EVERLY:When Kaelan returned in the evening and learnt about the Carter incident, he became very angry with me.“I told you not to leave our chambers. What did you go to the clinic for?”“I'm sorry, Kaelan. I only wanted to comfort the boy.” I explained.“And what did you get in return, huh? You almost had yourself killed with my pup in your womb.”“Oh, this is all about protecting your pup,” I said calmly.“Don't get me more upset than I already am,. Everly,” he said coldly and stormed out of our room.A moment later, I heard him yelling at someone downstairs and when I looked through the balcony, I saw him yelling at Owen. He told him he was incompetent and couldn't handle a simple task of protecting the Luna.Owen was on his knees begging.I wanted to go downstairs to explain things further but I knew it would make him even more furious. So I held my breath and wished he could calm down. He did calm down eventually but things never remained the same

    CHAPTER 158: DUNCAN IS DEAD EVERLY:When we left the clinic, Kaelan decided to go to the library to check things out. He was going through some reports when Owen knocked.“Come in,” he responded impatiently.Owen walked in with hesitant steps. “Alpha, Duncan request an audience with you.”Kaelan closed the file in his desk and turned to him. “Is this some kind of a joke? Do you really think I'm jobless? You should know the rules, Owen. I don't go about entertaining wolves from the dungeon.”Owen bowed. “I'm sorry, Alpha.” And then left the room.We spent a few more minutes in the library and then went upstairs. From this moment onward, Kaelan became clingy. He never let me out of his sight. It has been weeks since the rogues abducted me from the market and almost killed me but I still had nightmares. Kaelan was worried and decided that we should seek the help of a certain witch. But I didn't want to go.I couldn't visit a witch with a pup in my womb. Kaelan decided to go alone. I

    CHAPTER 157: ARTIFICIAL FINGERS?EVERLY Viktor let go of my hand when we stepped out of the cell where the rogues had kept me. The building was hidden in a remote forest and I wondered how Viktor was able to locate this place.“I didn't come alone,” he said as if he read my mind. “There are ten Lycans out there, destroying the rogues.”He led me through a hidden path and I saw a car in the distance, waiting.“You brought a car.” I was pleasantly surprised.“Yes, I know you can't shift because of the pregnancy and walking more than twenty miles back to Crescent Moon would be dangerous for you and the pup.”I was impressed with Viktor's thoughtfulness. Who would've thought that the werewolf’s greatest villain had such a good side.I got into the car as soon as we got there and Bennett drove the car away.Beauty was at the gate of the car, pacing. She knew Viktor and the Lycans had gone to rescue and she was obviously anxious. I told Bennett to stop so I could go down. Beauty ran into

It doesn't even matter that Beauty was always in my room, keeping me company.To distract myself, I decided to go shopping with Beauty. “I need some fresh air,” I told her that morning. “And I'm yet to buy baby stroller. Maybe I will see the one I like in the market today.”She grinned. “Sure. Can I come with you?”“Of course,.you can. Kaelan will be mad if he finds out I went to the market alone,” I told her.“Then we need to take some guards,” Beauty suggested. “Just for protection.”I nodded. “Okay. Two or three guards will do.”Beauty went downstairs and informed Owen that we needed three guards to escort us to the market. He made them available immediately.I told the guards to wait in the car when we arrived at the market. I didn't want what happened the last time Beauty and I came to the market to repeat itself ag

    CHAPTER 155: YOU'RE WELCOME, BABEEVERLY:I felt so furious hearing Kaelan talk about my past in that manner. I don't know if it's the pregnancy hormones but I get easily annoyed these days.I didn't make a fuss. I simply left him in the kitchen and retreated to my room. I always did that whenever Kaelan annoyed me.“Luna, I'm sorry,” he said as he entered my room, a few minutes later, looking worried. “I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.”“You don't always mean to hurt me but you always do,” I replied dryly.I was busy knitting a cap for my unborn pup. Kaelan wrapped his arms around my shoulders and buried his head in my neck.“Don't be annoyed, my Luna.”I didn't utter another word.The silence between us grew awkward.“I'm planning on going for a short business trip.” he whispered.I dropped the pins and turned to him. “Oh I get it. You're fed up with me and now you want to abandon me with your pup in my womb.”Kaelan withdrew his arms from my shoulders and gazed into my eyes. “Ho

    CHAPTER 154: I DESERVE WORSEKAELAN:I instructed Owen to take off Viktor's shackles and get him a room in the warrior's lounge. I provided a few pieces of clothing and some toiletries for him. He looked too haggard and really needed to clean up.“I will never again fail you, Alpha.” Viktor couldn't stop expressing his gratitude.But I didn't let my guard down.For days, I kept a keen watch over Viktor, trying to see if there was a reason to doubt him. But there was none yet.Perhaps I needed to put him through a test. And I wasn’t going to make it easy.This morning, Everly curled her arms around me, sleeping soundly. I gazed at her beautiful face. It looked a bit fragile and I couldn't help but plant a wet kiss on her lips.Then I untangled her arms and got out of bed. I headed straight to the tiny room I had given Viktor in the warrior’s lounge.Most of my warriors weren't happy about sharing the lounge with the same terrorist Alpha who had seen to the death of so many Lycans in C

Why would Viktor request an audience with me after all the terrible things he had done?I can be ruthless when I want to. But I can also be considerate. It wouldn't hurt just to hear him out.Owen was in the library with me, waiting for my response. “So what does he want?” I asked, barely looking up from the reports on my desk.“He says he wants to apologize.” Owen informed me.Viktor wants to apologize? That's interesting! For a moment, I didn't say a word.Everly was on the couch, reading a book on pregnancy. She looked up suddenly. “Maybe you should hear him out.”I scoffed. “You think he’s changed?”“I think he has nothing left to lose,” she said simply.That was true.Viktor had lost his pack, his status, his

We have duties to perform and I needed to leave before my pregnancy hormones start acting up.Kaelan drove us back to Crescent Moon and as soon as we saw Owen, standing by the gate, looking grim, I knew something was up.Kaelan pulled to a halt and whined down the glass. “Is there a problem?”.Owen sighed as he scratched his head. “It’s Viktor. He’s throwing a fit in the dungeon.”I frowned. Viktor? We had almost forgotten that he existed. He had withdrawn to his shell after he lost all his ten fingers.Kaelan also frowned. “And I'm supposed to be bothered about that?”“Alpha, Viktor has been making a fuse all day,” Owen reported, looking annoyed. “Everyone is fed up with his tantrum.”Kaelan stepped down from the car, crossed his arms and leaned on the car. I stepped down too but I didn't go to him. I was tired and wanted to go upstairs. The way I rubbed my stoma
