The Alpha King True Mate CHAPTER 82
Zeus’ POVSelene took a step back the moment I shifted back to man form.Evan still had the young man in his grip. I could see the fear in her eyes. She feared for the young man and it made me wonder who he was to her.“Let him go, please,” Selene pleaded, her gaze going from Evan to me and back to Evan.“Why should he do that?” I demanded to know.“He didn’t do anything wrong. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be alive right now,” Selene said, worry still laced in her voice, “He found me unconscious in the woods and brought me to Eleanor, his mom, who attended to me. They both didn’t do anything wrong.”I looked at the woman who had appeared at the doorway. She didn’t look dangerous.“Alpha Zeus,” she said, her tone even, though there was a subtle edge to her words. “I was wondering when you’d arrive.”I narrowed my eyes. “You know who I am.”She nodded, stepping aside to allow us entry. “I know a great many things, Alpha.”Evan shot me a wary glance, but I ignored him, signaling he

Zeus’ POVEleanor took a deep breath before proceeding to tell me what she had meant by my doctors being responsible for Selene's inability to get pregnant.She explained how when she had told Selene she was pregnant; she had refused to believe it, insisting that she couldn’t get pregnant because she had been trying and the doctors had told her she couldn’t get pregnant.“She said she had been giving herbs to combat the bareness, but when I asked her to describe these herbs, she gave a clear description of Parsley,” She looked at Selene and back to me, “Parsley when taken, can inhibit pregnancy or cause an abortion.”“Why would the castle doctors want Selene barren?” Evan asked the question on my mind.Eleanor’s words hung heavily in the air, the weight of their implications pressing down on all of us. Selene’s face paled as she absorbed the revelation. I clenched my fists, a storm of emotions surging within me—anger, confusion, and a sense of betrayal.“Are you certain about this?” I

Selene’s POVEleanor walked in with the food she had prepared for me. After Zeus had ordered me out of the castle and I had walked out from my parent’s house, I was lost and didn’t think I could trust anyone anymore. Eleanor had proven that she was trustworthy, taking care of a stranger without requesting any payments to be made.Zeus had us at one of his safe houses because he had said it wasn’t safe for me to stay at the castle. He was right. With everything going on at the moment. It was safer if I stayed hidden until the whole conspiracy was uncovered. This was bigger than just me and we all knew it.“How is your son?” I asked Eleanor as she brought the food she had prepared to the bed where I was.“He’s fine. He’s lucky you had stepped in when you did, or else his injuries would be greater than what he sustained,” Eleanor replied, “It was foolish of him to go up against an Alpha and his Beta.”“You can’t blame him. How was he to know?”“Don’t worry about him. Eat and rest. Your b

Evans’ POVI had tried to reassure Selene but I wasn’t reassured. I could hardly believe the words I had told her. Everything going on was making me look incompetent. I hated feeling incompetent. I enjoyed the feeling of being in control and right now, I wasn’t.My fists clenched the ledger I had taken with me to show Zeus. I had expected the conspiracy to run deep but I didn’t expect it to run this deep, involving council members.Why would council members want harm to come to Zeus? Zeus’ rule has been the best we’ve had in a long time. He ruled with iron fists but showed emotion when needed. He wasn’t always the Devil, only when it was required. That wasn’t enough reason to want to harm him.I wondered if they had been bribed or they were threatened. These thoughts were surely going to keep me up all night.I got into the car, rubbed my eyes, and laid on the steering for a minute. My head was beginning to bang. When was the last time I suffered a headache? The feeling was foreign to

Zeus’ POVThe night dragged on endlessly, each passing hour chipping away at what little patience I had left. Sleeping has proved extremely difficult for me. My thoughts were chaotic like a storm-tossed sea, my mind circling the same possibilities over and over again. The conspiracy was spreading like poison through the heart of my pack, and I needed to come up with a plan that would get us to the root of the problem.By the time the faint gray light of dawn crept through the curtains, I had barely closed my eyes. My unease had grown heavier, an oppressive weight that pressed down on my chest. Unable to sit idly any longer, I reached for my phone and dialed Evan. The call rang. No answer. My stomach twisted into a knot.A second call, then a third. Still nothing. My anxiety kicked in, sharp and immediate, as my mind jumped to the worst-case scenario. What if they had gotten to him? What if he had been silenced before we could uncover the truth?I paced the room, my hand tightening aro

Evans’ POVThe silence in the car on our way back to the castle was deafening. Zeus was skeptical about leaving Selene, Eleanor, and her son back at the safe house. I understood his fear. He wasn’t only concerned about Selene’s well-being; he now had an unborn child to worry about, too. I’d had to call in a few of the elite pack warriors, those I had trained with and could vouch for in my life. We had them swear to keep everything a secret or risk losing their lives. Zeus only agreed to leave for the castle when he was convinced it was safe for them.The tension in the car was building with every minute we got closer to our destination. Jack had gone ahead of us to do his investigations on the council members. Zeus was right, we needed to know who and who had been compromised. The circle of trust was already small and we needed to keep it that way.“You know, you haven’t mentioned punishing Selene for her betrayal,” Zeus interrupted my thoughts.I took in a deep breath, “With everythi

Candice’s POVI was on my way to the Star Moon Pack. Alpha Rodrigo had accepted my request to meet and hear what I had to say.The car rolled over uneven terrain as the Star Moon Pack's border loomed ahead, the dense forest giving way to sprawling lands dotted with guard posts. My heart thumped wildly in my chest, determination fueling me. Zeus had cast me aside, humiliated me, and all for that woman — Selene.The thought made my nails dig into the leather seat beneath my palm. I hated her with every fiber of my being. Selene had taken everything from me: Zeus’ attention, his warmth, his future. No, that wouldn’t do. I wouldn’t allow her to win.The car slowed as we reached the border checkpoint. Two Star Moon guards flanked us, their wolfish eyes glowing in alertness. One approached, his hand resting on the gun strapped to his side."State your business," he growled.The driver leaned out, presenting the insignia I had acquired when Rodrigo had accepted my request for an audience.

Candice’s POVI walked behind Brent, following like a good school child who was expecting a treat from their parents. We walked in silence, Brent paying no heed to me, but from his alertness, I knew he was aware of every move I made, down to the number of breaths I had taken. The silence was beginning to feel awkward and I didn’t know what I was supposed to say to break the ice. This was unfamiliar terrain, and I had to be careful, or else I’d be at risk of being thrown out, just like Zeus had done to me.I was determined not to make any mistakes with this. Zeus had disgraced and embarrassed me. Taking me for granted and putting me aside like I was filth and meant nothing to him. Maybe I didn’t mean anything or hold any form of value to him, but after I was done with what I had in mind for him, he’d wish he hadn’t done what he did.We walked past some of the castle staff who bowed in respect to Brent. From the look on their faces, I could tell that they not only respected him but also

Zeus’ POVThe plan was already in motion. I had sent my people to find out Selene’s whereabouts but I wasn’t going to sit idly and wait to hear the news before acting. I wasn’t one to be fully dependent on anyone. The fact that I had let my guard down with Selene was what hurt the most.I stripped and walked into the closet. I wasted no time picking out the clothes I needed. In less than 10 minutes, I was dressed and ready to leave. My wolf was impatient; he could sense the action that was about to come and was dancing in anticipation.It took great strength on my path to stop him from tearing through my skin and going on the hunt himself. I couldn’t blame him though. Not only did Selene betray us, but she was also our mate. Our Luna.I walked to the mini-armory I had in my bed chamber and took out four pocket knives. I slipped two in each boot and strapped the last two to the knife holder on the belt line.I did a once-over to be sure I wasn’t missing anything vital. When I was sure
