The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 41
UNKNOWN POVNone of them said anything and I continued. “Now, I heard that the council is calling for her dethronement. This, my brothers, is time for us to rise and take what is ours…”“And we’re to rule together?” I glanced at him and then at our second brother who chuckled softly. “It’s a valid question,” he pointed out.“Who else? Although that’s not the point right now. We do know that our brother cannot rule this kingdom! In fact, from the information I gathered, I heard there’s some money missing from the park’s treasury.”“I’ve been curious, brother, what did you use such a huge amount of money on?” My lips parted, just as my eyes widened in surprise. I had been extremely careful and was so sure that nobody was aware of what had happened.“What do you mean?“ I regained my composure quickly. They would never find out what the money was going to be used for.“Common, brother, we all know about the money…”“This meeting was not called for us to throw accusations at each other…”
The Alpha King True Mate Chapter 1
Selene's POVI stared impatiently at the clock as it ticked past 10 pm, anxiety gripping my heart. With each passing minute, my worry deepened. I couldn't remember how many times I had glanced at the door hoping that Alpha Orion would come in.He left the house early today to check on the border walls that were rumored to have been the enemy's camp out. Nightfall pack our rival pack were rumored to have camped close to our border, waiting for the perfect time to ambush us and immediately Orion got the news, he had left home without even eating breakfast.The night stretched long and still, there was no sight of him. I paced around the room repeatedly when suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen. I thought it was nothing but the normal contractions I had during pregnancy and besides I wasn't due till after a month.I took another step and I felt something warm and wet trickling down my thighs. The pain intensified and I was forced to let out a cry. The door was flung open as
The Alpha King True Mate Chapter 2
Selene's POV I shivered as goosebumps flooded my skin due to the cold. I pulled up closer to the walls, trying to find some warmth disregarding the fact that the dungeon I was currently in had a foul odour. My hand brushed across the blood on the wall and I hurriedly retrieved them. I was cold and in pain. My eyes hurt from crying so hard. I moved away from the bloody walls but ended up stumbling against the bones I had been desperately trying to avoid. There were skulls and different body parts of the deceased, I shuddered just thinking about what the owner of those body parts must have gone through to end up like that.I suddenly heard footsteps approaching which was strange. This was my second day in the dungeon but no one has ever come this way. Was it Orion? Did he realize I was innocent of his accusations? A flicker of hope bloomed in my heart as I rushed towards the old rusty bars. I held the bars to support myself repeatedly trying to glance at the person approaching. My sm

KING Zeus POV ~BLUE MOON PACK~Anger coursed through my veins as I glanced through the reports in front of me. I adjusted the glasses at the bridge of my nose. For the past two hours I have been sitting here going through the atrocities committed by the Alpha of the Blackpeak pack. I banged my hands on the table angrily and the sound reverberated across the room."Jacob!" I growled. A second barely passed before he rushed in."Alpha King, you called for me." My beta, Jacob answered."What's all these?" I inquired, pointing towards the file."Those are the reports I got on Blackpeak pack for the past few months Alpha." He explained."Blackpeak pack again? Aside from their extortion from the poor by using tax payment as an excuse, Alpha Orion's pack also has the highest rate of poverty. He has refused to pay his employees?" I inquired in disbelief.Jacob nodded. "Yes, Alpha King. I also got reports of some of his pack members deaths. A border fell recently. It was rumored to have been
The Alpha King True Mate Chapter 4
KING Zeus POV My senses were heightened the moment she was brought before me. The air cracked with an undeniable force, a magnetic pull that went beyond before mere physical attraction. She raised her head even though all prisoners had their head bowed. Her eyes widened and I felt the flicker of emotion in them, it was the mate bond. The connection surged through my veins and blood, confirming her status as my destined partner. It was obvious she felt it too, after a few minutes of running her eyes over me, she hurriedly averted her gaze, bowing to me like every prisoner. Although my insides were in turmoil, I maintained a straight face in front of everyone. Our exchange was only for a brief moment for the people present but to us it felt like an eternity. "Jacob," I called out, gazing at other prisoners who were shaking like leaves. "Yes, my King." His polite reply came. "Retreat everyone back to the dungeon. I will attend to this matter soon." I ordered. He shot me a surpris

Selene POVWith my mouth wide open I stared at the man standing in front of me. I was still processing words to say when he arched an eyebrow at my silence.“Sir… I think you must be mistaken.” I managed to say.“Huh? What?” He asked as he saw the shock on my face.“What do you want?” I asked, my eyes watching his every expression.“You.” He blurted almost immediately.“Sir, you must be mistaken. I don't understand what you are trying to say.” I denied it for the third time with a straight face.He stood there staring down at me intently and his expression did not change one bit.“You heard me and you're coming with me.” He repeated.Before I could say Jack he went out of the dungeon and arrived with a young man whom he ordered to open the door to the dungeon and let me out.“What are you doing?” I questioned as the man fumbled with the padlocks.“I said earlier that you're coming with me.” He repeatedly ignored the shock on my face.The man finally opened the dungeon and he ordered
The Alpha King True Mate Chapter 6
Alpha Zeus POV Selene silence made cold shivers run down my spine and never have I ever been so nervous my whole life. Here I was, growing goosebumps and sweating in my armpits as I prayed to the Moon Goddess that Selene made the right choice. Not only did Orion maltreat her, but he chose to believe his ex over his mate and someone who was carrying his child. Therefore he wasn't a good mate and fit to be with him. The way he has even tried to manipulate her into choosing him already said the same thing that the guy was nothing but a manipulator. "Hey, Selene... Nobody is pressuring you. Just choose from your heart. I'm not forcing-""I choose to go with you, my King." She said almost immediately, cutting me off."You do?" I choked out, unsure of what I heard."Yes, my King. As long as you want me to." She added."Of course I do," I said, trying hard to hide my smile."Is the carriage ready?" I asked my men."Yes, Alpha. Everything is ready." They responded.Orion and Vivan stood
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 7
Alpha Zeus' POV Panic surged through me as I saw Selene's lifeless firm, she was pale and cold. I shook her and tried calling her name several times but she remained silent and still.Fear gnawed at my heart, I need to protect my mate at all costs. I can't lose her, not after years of searching for her, and finally found her. "Move this carriage faster!" I barked at my men, urgency evident in my voice, "We need to get the pack healer, now!"Selene's body was limp and cold in my arms; I pressed my ear to her chest to listen to her heartbeat; they were slow and steady. Goodness! She was still breathing. "Selene, jod on a little longer. We'll get you to a healer and you'll be fine. Please..." I whispered, begging silently. We soon got up the pack house and my men rushed to open the carriage door after halting it to a stop. "Go get the Royal healer now!" I ordered my men to summon the healer upon reaching the pack house. I carried Selene in my arms and raced to my room to lay her d

The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 40
SELENE POVI didn’t need to look back to see the look of surprise and horror on Zeus' face. But after what he did the day before, I knew that he wouldn’t dare cause a scene again.I walked hand in hand with Ben, although, I had no idea where he was taking me to, neither had I invited him for breakfast or wanted to go anywhere with him. He must be trying to irk Zeus which I could see was already working.I said nothing as he led me out, to his car. “We’re going somewhere you’ll like.”A couple of minutes later, he pulled up in front of a bar. A bar!I glanced at him, my face remaining expressionless.“Relax, don’t worry. I care about you and want you to be fine. I don’t like how all your feelings are just so bottled up. I know you’re sad and want to cry, but you think that crying doesn’t do anything; after all, it wouldn’t bring back your parents,” he paused, and I winced, thinking about how right he was.“But crying makes you feel a little bit better. Just let it all out and see.”I g
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 39
ZEUS POV"Out of my room, and this mansion…""My friend doesn't want me to leave. Shall I ask her?" A smile was playing on her lips now and she moved away from me and plopped back on the sofa."She doesn't love you, you know. She feels nothing for you. Anyway, I'm sure you know all that already. When will you divorce her?"I scoffed, realizing that once again, my intuition was right. This was her father's ploy."The council might not be that patient..""Shut up and get out!" I snapped, pointing at the door and she glanced at me, the smile replaced by something entirely different, a mix of disbelief and surprise.She smiled again, but this time, I could see the nervousness hidden beneath the smile. "When you need me, which I'm telling you, you will. You know where to find me," with that, she stood up and walked out of the room.Those sly idiots!They must've thought that because Maya and I were once engaged, I must still feel something for her; how wrong they were.Perhaps, they had fo
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 38
SELENE POV I wondered if she was aware of the romance between Maya and the Alpha king. If I was the only one in the dark. Perhaps, the other maids and guards looked at me with pity."I'll be back with the doctor, Your Highness," She said and almost immediately, walked out of the room, only to arrive a few minutes later with a doctor."I'll be back, Your Highness," she hurriedly walked out of the room again and I glanced at her without a word."Your Highness, I am Doctor Mark and I'll check you…""There's no need for that, Doctor," I stood up and that seemed to surprise him, judging by the look of surprise etched on his face."Are you…are you sure, Your Highness? I have to check just in case..""I'm fine, Doctor. I was just tired."He nodded and walked out of the room, not looking the least bit convinced.I swallowed hard, noting that my husband, who was supposed to be by my side at the moment, was nowhere to be seen, and I couldn't help but wonder if he was at their rendezvous.Julia
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 37
SELENE POVI didn't care about what I was going to see, all I knew was that I was going to be fine. I didn't have any feelings for him and I just wanted to satisfy my curiosity.A small photograph dropped from the envelope and I bent to pick it up, a gasp escaping from my lips as I did so.I never thought anything could hurt me again, not after what happened to my parents, but this, felt like a knife was wedged deep inside me, making a home for itself in my heart.In the photo was a child, a boy of not more than three years with dark hair and blue eyes.The same shade of blue I was all too familiar with.ZEUS.I know you're hurting, but so am I. Each moment spent without you is in pain. A pain so raw, that it feels as though a hot knife is searing through my heart.I promised not to come back to the town, but it's time we stop hiding when we're not some dirty little secret.You're married now and I respect your decision to do so, however, it would be nice to see you, even if it has to
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 36
SELENE POVShe was saying something else, but I wasn't listening as my eyes caught sight of a figure hurriedly walking out through the back door. It was unmistakably the same long, dark, wavy hair I was familiar with. Maya crane.I wondered where she was hurrying to and through the back door when she was supposed to be down with Flu. I had a bad feeling about it and I immediately turned to Julia."Go get me an Apple tart.""Annalise! Please go get an…"She was still talking when I interrupted her."You should get it yourself.""Your Highness?" Her brows were raised, but she was smart enough to avert her gaze. It was probably the longest gear wires I had spoken at once to her."If I wanted an apple Tart from Annalise or whoever, I would ask them to get it. I want you to get it for me and I want you to be there when it's baked. You know how I like it," I said and she nodded slowly as she still stood there.I was getting impatient. I wanted to leave quickly. I was curious to see what had
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 35
SELENE'S POVI wanted to ask her if she wanted to be Queen. I wanted to confirm what the maids were saying. If indeed, the entire council was supporting her, then there was no stopping it from happening; she was going to become Queen.I wondered if Zeus wanted her to be his queen and if that was why she was here in the mansion. Plus, they seemed very close."You know, I never thought I'd ever be back here…."There was a knock again and she stood up and walked to the door.The door opened, and Ben entered, a smile on his face, and I wondered what had brought him here."You're here," he said as he glanced at Maya."How have you been, Ben?" She said and I watched her face to see if her expression was going to show that she supported him.She was smiling, but it was the same smile she always had on whenever she looked at me."Your Highness, may I speak to you alone?" For the first time, he had a serious expression etched on his face and I glanced at Maya."You want me to leave?" Her lips
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 34
SELENE POVSuddenly, the wolf transformed and I furrowed my brows as I saw that it was a beautiful woman around my age."Who are you?" she questioned as she regarded me, an amused look on her face.I was surprised that she was asking me if everyone in the mansion knew who I was."I asked a question," she stated again in an authoritative tone, and I knew that whoever this woman was, she was a high-ranked wolf, and somehow, she had no idea who I was."I'm the..""Your Highness!" We both turned to the source of the voice. It was Julia and I internally rolled my eyes."What are you doing here?" She then turned to the woman."Lady Crane. I never thought you'd be here now.""Your Highness… you're the queen," she said, a small smile playing on her lips. She nodded and I noticed that she didn't bow or be courteous."Here, my lady," Julia handed a robe to the woman that she had called Lady Crane."I am Maya Crane," She said, holding out her hand toward me. I was surprised that she would offer
The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 33
ZEUS POV"A butterfly.""It's a handkerchief?" She nodded, saying nothing and I smiled."For me, I hope?"She didn't say anything for a while, as if she was thinking about it. And then she nodded. "For you.""Why?""Because you asked."I stood up, suddenly angry. I knew I shouldn't be, but with everything going on at the moment, my temper was rising by the minute. I had come to see her in a bid to calm myself down after everything that had happened.I was going through all of this because of her. Yet, here she was, giving me one-worded replies and telling me that she was making a handkerchief for me because I asked."What is wrong with you? I have tried everything! Done everything! For you and yet you…" I flung my arms, willing myself to not say anymore unless I was going to hurt her and regret it.She glanced up at me, clearly surprised at my outburst, but not reacting in any way whatsoever. "Are you a fucking vegetable! Don't you have emotions? You just sit here all day, not doing a
