THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 75 (THE PRINCES' TRAIL)
XAVIER'S POVShe looked tired and I wondered whether her brothers were causing her trouble again. Those two boys were quite a handful for her.I watched as she came out to sell to a customer. I could not hear what they were saying as my head and ears were filled with the many sounds of the marketplace but I could guess they were bargaining.They took a while going back and forth and I watched as she journeyed from calmness to craziness.I had guessed she was going to go crazy on the man when I saw her start to tap her hand against the table. That had always been my cue to know that her temper was going to flare very soon."Fuck off!" I read her lips when she had sent the man away. He probably must have bargained way below the cost price and had ticked off her fragile temper.Today was the first time I had set my eyes on Abigail ever since she had come to the palace and tried to rat me out to my uncle. I had still not gotten over that incident."Are we moving along or is there somethin
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 76 (THE CURIOUS CAT)
ANNA'S POVI stood waiting for Xavier just where he had instructed me to wait for him. I felt so minuscule under the towering building and the massive clock that hung on it.There was a time when I would not have agreed to be left alone by him, especially at a place I knew nothing about because I would have suspected that he would leave me and go away but there was this amount of trust I had grown towards Xavier.I did not know when it had started growing but I knew it was there.And so I waited for him with the hopes that he would come for me.My mind kept on wandering back to Abigail. I had suspected that there was something between the both of them the time I had first seen her in Alpha Lartes' throne room. but I could not place my finger on what it was. Today, however, my questions as to who she was to Xavier were answered.I had seen the way he looked at her. She had been more than just a friend to Xavier. There had been something between them.I did not want to admit it to mysel
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 77 (MISSING GIRL)
XAVIER'S POVMy heart dropped when I could not see her where I had asked her to stay. It had taken a while for me to make sure that our followers had given up their chase. Even after they left, I walked in circles as I kept my eyes on them to make sure they were not coming back. And when I came back, she was nowhere to be found."Anna?" I called out hoping to hear her annoying voice answer but all I got was silence. I looked around me, maybe she was planning a jump scare because she was full of surprises.I searched every corner of the building where I felt like someone could hide but everywhere was very empty.I was lost for words.I wondered what could have possibly happened. She wouldn't run off because she was excited to come. Or was this just part of her plan?No, I had to push away all my thoughts, maybe something happened. Maybe the goons had taken her away.I was tempted to scream her name but I did not want to draw any attention to myself that would end up reaching my uncle's
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 78 (THE MEETING)
ANNA'S POVWe rode in silence till we got to a stop."Come down," Xavier said to me as he alighted from the carriage.We were in front of an inn and I thought of how they had their hideouts in the most weird places like the palace."Try to keep up, we are already late," Xavier said to me as he started to walk away from the inn and onto an isolated path.I followed him without saying anything even when we were going far away from civilization and from any help in case I had to call out for help. But I followed him still. The trust I had in him kept me safe.Some moments later, we came upon a dilapidated building and I watched as Xavier knocked on the door.He knocked in a particular pattern, three consecutive knocks, then silence, then two consecutive knocks then silence, then another three consecutive knocks."Are you a friend or a foe?" A voice called out from within."A foe," Xavier replied, and then the door creaked open. The feeling I had when I was coming and found its way back.
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 79 (DRAMA AISLE)
XAVIER'S POVMy blood went cold when I heard the voice speaking.I looked for her with my eyes but I could not see her."The same woman whom you were with when we were being slaughtered like rams is the same woman you have the guts to bring to our midst! You have no respect for the lives that were lost for your pathetic cause!" The voice said again."Mind your tongue, Abigail. Lest you lose it today," Peter warned Abigail.The people started to murmur as they tried to understand what was going on. I watched as they paved the way for Abigail who had been standing at the back of the room to come forward and speak her mind."I shall not be threatened to keep quiet with the truth by men who are too blind to see that they are risking their lives for someone who doesn't care about theirs, neither is he worth the sacrifice," Abigail said in that voice of hers that I had always thought was too much for her little frame.She finally made it to the front of the room and I was blessed to look at
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 80 (TURN OF EVENTS)
ANNA'S POVI loved the look I saw on Abigail's face. It made me feel some type of joy I had not felt in a while. This was just supposed to be a game for me to save my people but for some reason I became thrilled with the direction this particular scene was taking.She looked like she was looking at the most horrific thing she had ever seen in her life. Her eyes were expanded to the corners of her face and her mouth was wide open in shock.I held Xaviers hands tight in my hand and smiled at Abigail. Taking in the aura like it was milk and my skin needed it more than anything.The only thing that made me happier than the look on Abigail's face was Xavier's hands in mine.I had not expected him to say what he had said when he started to speak. I had thought he was going to apologize to the people but he had left all of us stunned.Abigail's face went from shock to anger till she became red. Her ears looked hot red and her nose flared.As the seconds passed the anger on her face tripled a
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 81 (WRONG MOVE)
XAVIER'S POVI had tried to protect her but I was too late. It had all happened way too fast.Abigail had changed into her wolf form in a split second and had charged at Anna immediately without giving me any time to act.Before I could come in, Abigail had already knocked Anna to the ground and had tore open her chest with her the claws on her sharp paws.I watched Anna tumble to the ground and I had felt the impact of her head in mine. It was as if she and I were connected and I was able to feel her pain.I arrived just in time as Abigail was about to grab Anna in her mouth which was wide open.I pushed Abigail away with my entire strength, knocking her to the ground.I heard her whimper in pain but I paid her no mind and ran to Anna's side.I tried all I could to bring Anna back to consciousness but she was slipping away so fast.I placed my hands beneath her head to cradle it but then I pulled it out as I felt the warm, sticky, liquid.I smelled the blood and knew it was blood lo
THE ALPHA KING'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 82 (BLOOD MIXES)
XAVIER'S POV "Will she heal?" I asked the healer a millionth time since he had arrived twenty minutes ago."Your Highness, once again I say, it is not up to us! I have done the best I can and all that could happen next depends on her. She will heal if she wills to heal," The grey-haired healer said.I grunted. His reply did not please me but I didn't want to rile him up further."Thank you for your services," I said, dismissing him."You are welcome, Your Highness," He replied with a bow and shuffled out of the room on his old legs.I gazed upon the lifeless body of Anna on the bed. She looked so pale like the blood from her body had completely been drained. The only indication that she was alive and what gave me hope was the rhythmic beating of her heart which I felt in mine. Although her pulse was pale, at least it was there.I sighed. There was no way I was going to let her heal herself. I could not play with such a probability. I needed her to be healed. Then and only then would
