ANNA'S POVHe wanted to know why I wanted to join forces with him and I told him the truth."I want to avenge the plight of my people. I want to watch your uncle go down," I confessed.I spoke with so much passion because I was telling the truth. "I crave to see the day all he has built will come tumbling down and he will have a taste of his own medicine," I added.It worked. I had convinced him. I saw it in his eyes. The slits opened up revealing icy blue eyes turned warm in their totality. I had said to him what he had wanted to hear."I thought as much," He said, proud of himself for having guessed what even a child would have."But there is more you have left out," He added and I froze.Could it be that he and not his uncle was the Lycan who could read minds? I thought as I wondered how he could have possibly known that there was more to the plan and the story I had just told him.I wanted to open my mouth and say a lie to debunk whatever thought he had of my plan of destroying h
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 66 (LINGERING SENSATION)
XAVIER'S POVIt hurt me to tell her those words more than it had hurt her and I wondered why.She had finally joined the family.My suspicions about her being my Uncle's informant were still not out of the books. If she thought she had won me over then she was a bigger fool than I was."When am I going to be meeting them?" She asked me."When I take you there," I answered dismissively. I didn't want the conversation to continue.I needed to find a way to tell my fellow comrades that the woman whom my uncle had forced upon me had now joined us. I wondered what their reaction was going to be like. Were they going to think that I had finally lost my mind? I was sure a couple of them already suspected that. I dismissed the thoughts before I heard her voice again."I want to meet them this night," She said sternly."No," I replied sternly as well.I expected her to insist and we would have to do a back-and-forth argument but then she kept quiet and let my decision stand.I watched her ever
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 67 (UNDEFINED SENTIMENTS)
ANNA'S POVMy entire body trembled as I felt the current course through my body. The aftermath made me jerk a bit.I was sure he had felt me shiver and I became so embarrassed. He now knew how much his touch affected me if I could shiver from just a graze of his elbow. I felt the urge to move a bit but that would only put me out, so I pretended like nothing happened and I continued to face my ledger.But I wanted more of his touch. What I had felt from just the slight contact of our skin had intensified the hunger that I had been feeling for a while now.My wolf was restless inside of me and it was at that moment that I felt his eyes hot on my skin, burning through me with their eyes.My wolf ears could pick up the hitch in his voice as he breathed harder and faster than he was breathing earlier.This was familiar to me and I knew what it meant. This had been the same way his body had reacted when I had seduced him the other day.He wanted me.I slowly squeezed my legs as warm juices
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 68 (DISCOLORED EGO)
ANNA'S POV"Come in!" I said to whosoever was knocking as I needed the distraction it would bring.A maid walked in. When she saw Xavier and I sitting next to each other, she quickly dropped her eyes and I could see the look of shame on her face as she must have figured that she had interrupted something."His Highness has requested that you join him for dinner tonight, Your Highness," The maid spoke quickly."Thank you. Tell him we will honour his invitation," I answered without a thought.She bowed her head at my words and then practically ran out leaving us both in silence. I could only imagine what the gossip around the palace would be now.I waited for Xavier to say something as I was still, looking straight ahead of me like I was when the maid had come in.Then I felt his body move, then felt his body rise from beside me. I did not turn to look at him even after he walked away.I still sat there, trying to pull myself together.I had messed everything up. I had messed up the opp
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 69 (SWEET REVENGE)
XAVIER'S POV"Be ready in an hour. We are going somewhere," I said to her when her eyes fluttered open.She was a light sleeper and she had woken up with just a simple tap.I watched as she tried to get a hold of her surroundings and to understand what I had just said. Her green eyes darted from my face to other parts of the room as she cut ties with her life in her dreamland and adjusted to her life in reality.I had been up for two hours before waking her, making up my mind if what I was doing was the right thing to do or not, and I had spent about twenty minutes out of the two hours watching her sleep.The woman lying beside me was an enigma. One I longed to unravel and my journey to achieving that was going to take a step at a time and the journey was starting today."Where are we going to?" I heard her ask from behind me in a voice that was tampered by a yawn she was trying to stifle as I walked to the bathroom."You will find out soon enough," I answered her dismissively.By the
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 70 (TRICKED WOLF)
ANNA'S POVI did not know what to say to him. I felt so embarrassed as I stood there not knowing what to do.He had not told me where we were going to and so I had not known how to dress. After a lot of deliberation, I opted for a flowy milkmaid dress that was both casual as it was dressy. And for shoes, I had chosen a pair of heeled sandals to go with it. I had let my hair down and had applied very minimal makeup."If you had told me where we were going when I had asked I would have known how to dress accordingly," I spat out my voice heavy with anger.I was so much hurt by his mocking statement because it made me look like I craved his attention and was happy to be taken out on a date with him.It hurt me so bad that I could not unleash this anger on him as we were in the dining room and there were people maids around. If not for them, I would have long attacked the annoying man seated before me making him pay for making me look like a fool.The bloody bastard did not even grant me
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 71 (LOOSE STRINGS)
ANNA'S POVWe stopped in our tracks, Alpha Lartes' voice the catalyst to our stopping.I gave Xavier a sideways glance as I sought insight from him on what to do.I had no clue what to do. My heart raced wildly and it was so loud that it was impossible for me to hear myself think or figure out what I had to do. Even though I knew I was supposed to act calm, I could not.I believed so much in coincidences. Especially the ones that carried a bad omen with them. This had become part of me when I had seen a vulture hovering in the sky when I was a little girl. The large bird had caught my attention for reasons I did not understand and I had not stopped looking at it, totally ignoring my friends whom I was playing with. The next day, my mum died. And when I had found her cold, greying still body, I remembered instantly the vulture I had seen the day before.Meeting Alpha Lartes on the same day I was to meet with my new comrades for the first time was a bad omen preparing me for the sorrow
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 72 (BACK TO POINT ONE)
XAVIER'S POVThe end had come. I could feel it.I was not sure if I was ready for the battle that was about to ensue but I knew that I had to do it.Blood was going to flow, I knew it. I just did not know if mine was going to flow. And if mine flowed, then I would be happy that at least I had died trying to get what was mine.My uncle looked at me with eyes that could kill me.I could see the realisation of everything coming to his mind. His eyes looked heavy with all the emotions that ran through them making his eyes which were an identical shade as mine–a family gene, look navy blue.I knew he hated himself for being so blind and gullible not to believe his little nephew's lies. I could see the disdain he had for the man standing before me.There was also regret. Regret for not doing away with the little boy when he had killed his parents. He would have had a total claim to the throne with no stress. He longed to go back to that night and kill the young boy. Although I had no eviden
