THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 39 (THE DARK)
ANNA'S POV I could not see anything. The room was pitch black.The hairs on my arm rose as they sensed the presence of someone else in the room.She was in the room with me.I was so excited to have found her but I reminded myself to stay calm.After a while of nothing happening, I started getting anxious. I suspected that this was nothing more than just a trap.As if sensing my suspicions, she then started to move, causing me to follow her.She unknowingly led me through the darkened room, into a corridor.I was not surprised that the palace had such a place as I knew it was normal for a palace to have hidden tunnels and so on. What I was surprised about was how Abigail knew about these places.She was so sure of her safety in this place as she never glanced over her back to check if she was followed. But I still kept a lot of distance between us.She finally came to a stop at the end of the corridor.I strained my eyes to look in the darkness and I saw that it was a wall. I had exp

ANNA'S POV"Not really, but what did you expect us to say? You claim Xavier is a traitor and your proof to that is the fact that he got engaged. Doesn't that sound like a joke to you?" The first male voice that had spoken said again."He is a traitor! Don't you guys see? Why would he keep his engagement away from us? He claimed his Uncle forced him into it, is that not something we should have known? He always seemed to update us about everything going on in the palace and between him and his Uncle so what made this one different?" Abigail said.The anger in her voice was so strong, I could feel it from where I was.And her words clarified my suspicions. Xavier was not the leader of the rebels. He was only their informant.And in Abigail's defense, I agreed that he had not done his job by keeping his engagement a secret."He may have his reasons Abigail!" Another male voice thundered from within."Of course he did! Tell me why he had the mind to attend a party when our lives were bein

ANNA'S POVI moved farther along the wall to hide myself from Abigail as she walked out of the room but it was all in vain. She must have taken another route as she did not pass through the one she had used earlier.My wait however accorded me more information I needed."...how do you think Xavier would feel hearing we have lost Abigail?" One of the men said."It will not be easy on him," Another replied."What do you think must have come over her?" One of the men asked."It is said that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned," One of the men answered."But I thought they were just friends!" Another man said and he got no reply for his answer.There was silence in the room for a while and I made my decision to leave until another voice filled the air; "But do you think what she said was true?" One of the men asked."Which are you referring to? She said a lot of things today," Another man answered."Do you think the Prince is not fit to be our leader? Could it be his incompetence is th

ANNA'S POVThe room was empty when I got there as I had suspected it would be and I couldn't help but wonder where the moron would have gone."Probably to get wasted again and come and soil the room with his stench!" My wolf said angrily."Hmm... that would be good. It would set off the mood for us," I said with a smile on my face."The mood for what?" My wolf asked and I ignored her.I walked over to the bed and collapsed on it. I was so tired. The whole drama in the throne room drained my energy.I lay sprawled on the bed with my eyes closed taking deep breaths.I let my mind wander, back to a time when my world was at peace.I remember how I used to play in the fields with my friends and my mum.I remembered dancing nonstop with Kael during the moon festival.An image of Kael filled my eyes and a sad smile came to my lips.Kael, whom I had thought was going to be my mate one day. Kael who had been my first and only boyfriend and who had given me a taste of love. Kael who had given
Last Updated : 2023-08-12THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 43 (DROWNING IN SORROWS)
XAVIER'S POVI had walked out on my uncle ignoring his calls for me to come back. I did not have the emotional strength to control the whirlpool of emotions that were swirling inside of me and I knew if I stayed with him a minute longer, I was going to do something I was definitely going to regret.I barged out of the palace and into my carriage."Where to Sir?" My loyal driver asked.I kept quiet. I did not know where to go. All the people who had been my safe places during times like these have now turned their back on me.Other times when I felt this way, the first person I used to go to was Abigail but now, that was a no-go area.I still could not bring myself to believe that after all we had been through, after all the pain we had experienced; that my heart would be ambushed by the one person whom I thought, held it.I still could not believe that Abigail would come and pay allegiance to the man who had delivered her father's head in a box all because she wanted to get back at me

XAVIER'S POVI made sure I did not go overboard with the alcohol. I had learned my lesson by being drunk the last time. Moreover, these were times when I had to be on my guard at all times. Today showed me that I had much more opposition than I thought I did.The cool air as we drove back home helped me to deal with a lot of the drunkenness and by the time I had gotten home, I was more sober than drunk.But nothing helped me deal with the pain I felt as my hard cock pushed against the fabric of my drawers begging to be released from bondage.I tried all I could to take my mind off of the throb in my cock but no matter what I tried, all my brain could register was the blood that was rushing hot and fast down there.I wished I had stayed back and eased myself on those two lustful women who had ignited this fire in my loins but I had a policy.My parents had raised me to know that sex was a very sacred ritual and was to be done only with someone my heart was connected with.I had been

ANNA'S POVThat bath had taken longer than normal. Actually, I had spent the time assuring myself of my plan. I was not as confident as I was about it earlier.This was something I had never done before and had zero experience with it. How could I pull this off successfully?The one thing I knew for sure was that I was going to do it. I had to.I finally got out of the bath as I realized Xavier would soon be back and I needed to get prepared and everything set.I was expecting him quite late and that was why I was shocked to find him on the bed when I came out of the bathroom.I was startled not because I was standing before him with only a towel wrapped around me but because I was not ready.We stood looking at each other, him on the bed, his lower body covered with the blanket while his chest was naked and on display while I was standing a few feet from him returning his death stares.The frown on his face showed how he was not happy on seeing me but I could only wonder why he did n
Last Updated : 2023-08-15THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 46 (SEDUCTION GONE WRONG)
XAVIER'S POVI had not known what to do when she stood before me stark naked.I was confused. I did not know what was happening as this had to be the weirdest thing to ever happen to me.I could not fathom why Anna would decide to be naked before me but despite my confusion, I loved the sight.I tried my best not to take my eyes off of hers, not allow her naked body to take away my focus, and let her know that she was distracting me.I could feel the throb again. The throb which had left me when I had thought of Anna earlier on was back with full force at the sight of her body."It just wants to be satisfied," I said to myself trying to assure myself that it was not hard because of Anna but because I had been feeling this way ever since.Even though she was practically a heap of bones with some flesh to cover it up, I could not deny that she was sexy. She could do with a little more flesh here and there, but apart from that, she was beautiful.I was trying so hard not to let her small

THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 175 (THE BEGINNING OF THE END)
XAVIER’S POVAs the vessels landed on the shores of the island, a war cry was let out and everyone took position.At first, everything seemed perfect. The people in the town were packed away from the scenes. They were led to a safe location. Our aim wasn’t to kill them but to liberate them from the monster who was growing under their noses.As the people got cleared, we proceeded straight to the palace entrance with full attack, but it wasn’t met with force as the few guards present in the town were not even expecting what awaited them nor were they prepared for war.They were easily whisked away, leaving the gates bare. But as soon as we got to this point, that was when I realized that Kelvin knew we were coming. This wasn’t a surprise attack; it was a well-precedented attack.His men appeared from all sides of town as if they had been waiting for us to finish clearing the people away so that they would attack. They were more than we had anticipated and to top that up, their arrival
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 174 (CURSES AND WAR)
XAVIER’S POVLeaving Anna behind made me stronger. The further I got from the room, the more determined I became to end this war and curse once and for all.“Xavier, the men are ready,” Edna said as she joined me on the corridor as we headed out of the palace through the warehouse, which led us straight to the vessels.“The men are yet to be addressed and they are all waiting at the beach,” Charles said, and I nodded at him.“But there is one problem,” Nico’s voice filled the space and all three of us stopped to stare at him.There was a frown on his face as he joined us. “What is the problem?” I asked as he got closer.“We will have to do your coronation before you leave. It needs to be official before the realm’s flag can be raised.” Nico explained and I could already feel Edna’s hesitation beside me, but I had the perfect solution to this.“Call the elders, they shall be going with us,” I said and started walking away but Nico ran after me, stopping right in front of me.“But Xavi
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 173 (A PROMISE OF LOVE)
ANNA’S POVAs I got to Xavier’s chambers, I went straight to the bed, hoping I could get some rest but as I lay on it, there was nothing relaxing about it.Every scenario and circumstance kept playing into my head. My father’s kidnapping. The change of the details of the curse. The probability of Edna being Xavier’s half-sister and then Xena wanting to place her life on the edge of danger…How could I rest?Xavier’s plan was a full-on attack but what if… that one question held the key to the outcome of so many lives. It was true that with a perfectly planned attack with everyone’s support, we could win it, but would Nico change his mind?Unable to calm my head as the thoughts came moving in and out of me, I got up and walked to the window. Watching as the men outside, sat gathered in groups.It was Nico’s men and Xavier’s men too. They were sitting together in groups as if they had not just been enemies a few hours ago.A small smile danced on my lips. It was a good development and ma
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 172 (UNITING THE OCTAVIAN)
XAVIER’S POVThe room fell into perfect silence as they stared at me with shock in their eyes. My eyes narrowed especially on Nico who was trying to play me here like I was a fool.“So, according to you, it isn’t a crime for me to mate with my half-sister and also, it is perfectly fine if we go against what the elders said?” I said shaking my head and watching their reactions.While Nico had a defiant frown and I could guess that he was already scheming for the next words he was going to say to frame me up into his selfish wishes, Edna could no longer look at me in the eye.It was funny because the idea of her being my half-sister was still very strange to my head but nevertheless, as I said it and they were reacting like this, then it could only be true. The problem now was how they birth to her.“Xavier, listen to me,” Nico started up and I raised my brows ready to listen to his trash for a second time. “I know all this information is a little overwhelming but none of these stories
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 171 (WRONG BLOODLINE)
XAVIER’S POV“What?” We all echoed out in the room in shock.Our voice was of different intensity. Where Charles had the gentlest of them, I couldn’t control mine.“This is unbelievable. How can it be possible?” I cried out. I couldn’t believe this. “Edna can’t be an Octavian, from who? We all know that Uncle Lartes was never even into women to begin with! The man preferred men!”My eyes were narrowed, and my temples were squeezed into a tight knot as I tried to unravel the truth or even basic idea about the information that Xena had given me.“She is not from Uncle Lartes,” she whispered and the cloud of confusion in my head got even thicker.“How then?” I growled. “If she isn’t from Uncle Lartes, who then birthed her?”My father had just one brother and that was Lartes. If he didn’t have then whose child was Edna— as soon as the thoughts crossed my mind, I froze. This meant one thing, if she was an Octavian, then she was…“She is our half-sister?” I whispered, unable to say the word
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 170 (THE WRONG TALON)
XAVIER’S POVHer question left a ringing in my ears and the way she collapsed to the ground, caused a panic to start within me. I knew what her argument was based on was the right thing but why did loving her also feel right? Why did fighting for us, feel right?Haven’t we been through enough already?I left my position and went to her with a troubled mind of my own, but I was certain we could figure it out together. I reached out my hands to her and as they came into contact the flame spreading between us was the assurance I needed. This couldn’t be wrong.“Anna…” I whispered with a blank head but at least it was a starting point.She raised her sad tears filled eyes to me and I was about to start cooking up the first plan that came into my head when the door opened and Charles, the vessel captain, stepped in.He bowed before us and held the position. “My king, I have news from your sister, the queen of the island,” he said, and my brows rose instantly to my hairlines.“What about my
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 169 (MY HEART OR MY PEOPLE)
ANNA’S POVThe hours on the journey back were ridiculously cold and silent. Every man was to himself, and I couldn’t help but begin to wonder if there was something I missed while we were all there.As the water danced around its waves, I seemed to be the only one rational enough to notice. It got to a point that I became worried for the men as they could fall or worse could happen to them.But the goddess stayed with us. We got to the shores of Black Moon safely without any casualties. Yet the mysteries surrounding the men didn’t stop. Rather it seemed to spread even to the others as we got down.Even the men in Black Moon all seemed to carry around them a strange dark aura that felt wrong.“Let’s go see the King,” Charles said and we picked a representative from the two teams of soldiers we carried along with us.We were going to the head to the throne room but we were redirected to the conference room where we found Xavier, Edna and Nico all seated with long faces.My wolf was itch
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 168 (DARK AURA)
ANNA’S POVI tried to think of an explanation to what I heard, but there was none.Everything around me started feeling off, and my heart was no longer beating in the normal way.I pulled out my walkie-talkie, and I wanted to dial Charles, but with no idea where he was or how it was in there, I decided against it.I returned my device to my pocket and moved the one I got from my father and his diary into my backpack, then I did a double back to the vessel.There was nothing I could do but wait, hoping that he would have more information when he returned.“Princess Anna, we got an interception from Black Moon but the connection was not stable enough for us to pick up anything,” the man we had left as a scout on the vessel said.“Oh, we will try again later in the night, connection is always better then,” I said, based on what Xavier had told me when he handed the devices to me.It was what Lartes had used to pass information from Black Moon to the island. It worked, we just had to fin
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 167 (THE EYES OF THE GODDESS)
XAVIER’S POVI wasn’t even the one to reject it. Edna herself slapped her palms to the table and jumped to her feet.“No, uncle Nico. I am not going to be mated to him!” She cried out like I was some sort of plague but surprisingly I felt no hate towards her because it was a mutual feeling. I didn’t want to be mated with her either. I already had Anna.“Sit down Edna and listen to me,” Nico growled and for the first time since I have come to know him, I saw agitation in his eyes.But Edna had gone wild.She stepped away from the table and shook her head like she had suddenly become possessed.“Why should I listen to you?” She spat out and Nico narrowed his eyes and he searched for the right words to say but before he could even come up with them, edna continued.“No way! I have listened to you all my life. I have done everything you have wanted.” She beat her chest and pointed in my direction. “But you see this particular one, I am not going to do it. I am not even going to sit here a
