THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 126 (TEARS IN SILENCE)
ANNA’S POVXena becomes a very good friend of mine. She came around every day to check on us and how we were fairing. Her sweetness was still too good to take in but as time went by, I became more and more comfortable with her.I even started looking forward to her visits as she healed the part of my heart that missed Xavier. Spending time with her was like being with Xavier —it wasn’t exactly the same, but it just made me feel like I was close to a part of him.It didn’t complete heal the guilt, but it helped me survive through it. I still cried at night when I was sure my father was still sleeping. His gestures, especially in the last days had been everything to me. The flowers, I could still remember the smells of the lavenders and I wished I could turn back the hands of time and tell him how I felt.It was difficult sleeping on a bed where he wasn’t there. I tried not to think about it, but I couldn’t stop. I knew that there was no one to blame but me yet I prayed that time could
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 127 (THE CRIPPLED KING)
ANNA’S POVXena’s bright eyes became clouded with darkness as she looked at me. “Anna is something wrong?” she asked and before I could respond, she added. “If it’s about the stay in my mouse, then you don’t have to worry. If you are not comfortable meeting Kelvin, its fine. I will just keep coming to you instead. I don’t mind—”“No, it’s not that. It’s something that I have been hiding from you,” I whispered interrupting her sweet rambles.Xena’s eyes became filled with confusion as she looked deeply at me, wondering what was going on.“Please, come,” I said leading her to the sitting room.After she was settled, I went on and told her who exactly I was and how I got there.“… my wolf had recognized him as my mate, but I was too stubborn to listen to it. I just continued acting tough until—” I paused and sniffled back the traitorous tears that were threatening to escape from my eyes.“When my half-sister came, things changed. Lartes wanted her because he already suspected that I was
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 128 (NEW TECHNOLOGY)
ANNA’S POVIt finally became clear to me why she appeared at every function and still worked her ass off on the administration of the island. Her mate was a cripple. My heart started bleeding for her as I wondered how she would have felt being thrown here only to discover that the one whom she was supposed to marry was cripple.“Hello, you must be Anna,” he said, pulling me out of my thoughts.I quickly pulled up a smile and nodded. I raised the edges of my dress and gave him a gentle courtesy, “Hello my king… it is nice to finally meet you,” I said trying my best to hide my emotions.He stretched his hand to me, and I had to pinch myself to go near him. I took his hand they were surprisingly strong. “Xena, didn’t you tell Anna that we don’t call ourselves by titles here?” he said with my hand still in his while he looked at his mate.Xena smiled and playfully pushed her lips into a pout. “I am sorry, I forgot to tell her how much you hate them,” she said with a giggle.He let out a
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 129 (HOUSE OF TALON)
ANNA’S POVI started working with Xena, helping her clear out most of the reports she had. We decided to split it since she was mostly interested in the welfare of the people, she tended to focus more on that.Me on the other hand, I was more interested in working with the soldiers, so I focused on such reports. Security related and other parts of the island affairs that she couldn’t deal with.I went home occasionally when I missed my father and, in those cases, Xena was sure to always follow. She became more than a sister to me. She was the half-sister, that Kira could never be. She filled more than the whole in my soul, and I was more than grateful for her presence and kindness.“Hey, young lady!” Her sweet voice snapped me out of my thoughts, and I blinked to find her smiling down at me.“You will injure your brain one of these days from thinking too much. How can you wake up in the morning and just spend to entire time thinking, aren’t you hungry?” she asked and I laughed at her
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 130 (HELP FROM THE CAPTAIN)
ANNA’S POVKelvin’s words caused my heart to twist away from its position and the world began to shake violently in my head. I tried to hold onto something but there was nothing.I was suddenly alone in a deserted land and the only sign of life I could see was Xavier —who was completely out of my reach.“Anna.”I heard my voice being called but I couldn’t move my body in a direction other than where Xavier was standing. I tried to stretch my hands to him, but my body refused to move still.“Anna!” I was shaken back to reality as my name got called a second time. I blinked hard and found that I was still in the mansion with Kelvin and Xena.They were staring at me with worry planted deep in their eyes.“Anna, you zoned out, is everything okay?” Kelvin asked but Xena was silent as she had an inkling of what I could be going through.It was a good thing that Xavier was still alive. My wolf was excited but being told that he was held by a certain house didn’t sound right in my ears. I fea
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 131 (THEIR SIDE OF THE ISLAND)
ANNA’S POVIt finally started making sense in my head, but I couldn’t hold on to the senses. “If that’s Kelvin’s family name, why didn’t they want to speak about it?”Charles dropped his hand from mine and got off the chair. “That’s why I would advise that you stay away or ask Kelvin to do the bargain… if what you seek, is truly that important…” Kelvin said before walking away.I remained there in the sitting area with his words playing in my head.Kelvin had told me that his family got killed by Lartes’ attacks and he was left alone on the island until Xena came to rescue him. How come there was still a part of his family somewhere that he didn’t want to talk about?My mind was weighed down by the news, but I brushed it off my head and focused on Xavier. He was the one I should worry over and think of sorting and not the other way around. Besides, I had to respect Kelvin and Xena’s decision —even if it was stupid that she would want to steer clear of saving her only surviving family.

I was shipped to a faraway island a place where I knew no one but I wasn't depressed because I knew that this was just the beginning.When I got to the island, I was taken to the mountains, to a land owned by a woman.At first, I thought she was just like the rest of the women I knew but Edna was different. She was brave and powerful. She trained with me day and night until my body slowly started healing from the physical pain.The emotional pain was still there but she had found a way to numb it."Come, Xavier, get up," she called out across the fields.She had tricked me into fighting with her in the open fields in front of all her men. And they cheered her own like the leader she was.But, I was not going to let her win today.I peeled off the mask on my face and grinned at her."Do not say, I didn't warn you, Edna..." I whispered before tapping into my Lycan abilities.I moved so fast, that she didn't even see me coming —non
