The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 32. Hidden Investigation
Kat and Flo helped me with my makeup and hair. This time, my hair was styled in a simple chignon, but I felt it was missing something."Should I add a pin?" I asked them both."Well... there is a beautiful pin that would look lovely on you, my queen," Kat quickly opened the accessory box. It was a flower pin that would go perfectly with your outfit.I shook my head. "I want to wear the white pin—the mysterious gift."They both gasped, obviously startled and even took a step back. I took the cloth-wrapped pin from the drawer and placed it on the vanity."My queen, this is dangerous." Kat's face turned pale. "Why are you wearing it?""I think now is the time to wear it, to find out who sent it."I tucked it carefully into my bun. It was perfect."Queen Delilah, please don't be so careless. If King Elijah finds out, he'll be furious," Flo pleaded.I knew that Elijah almost lost his life because of that pin. He would be outraged if he knew I was wearing it to a tea party as if nothing had

All I could do was sit on the edge of the bed, sobbing and holding Aunt Disa's hand. She was still unconscious, just exhausted, but seeing her look so worn and battered tore at my heart."What happened to you, Auntie?" I whispered desperately.Dark thoughts crept in. If Aunt Disa was like this, what about Dad? After I disappeared, did Tracy and Benson treat my father horribly?"Delilah?"Elijah's voice startled me. I turned to see him standing in the doorway. He came in and patted my shoulder gently. "Let your aunt rest, Delilah."Even though I didn't want to leave, I obeyed Elijah. We walked out of the room, and Elijah held my hand."Is your aunt on your mother's or father's side?" Elijah asked."My father's younger sister. My birth mother didn't have anyone left in the pack."Elijah just ran his hand through my hair. "She'll be fine. Don't worry."I nodded, looking at Elijah. "Is it okay for her to stay here temporarily, my king?"Elijah looked over. "She can stay as long as she nee

Dinner in the dining room rarely happens, and tonight, I have to eat there with Aunt Disa—and, of course, Elijah. Aunt Disa looks much better and seems cheerful because Elijah invited her to dinner. Elijah mostly listens to Aunt Disa's stories while I remain silent."The situation in the pack doesn't seem to be going well," Elijah comments. "You can stay here until things are settled there.""My king, I know this is bold," Aunt Disa pauses, "but may I ask for your favor?""How can I help you, Disa?""Could you fix what's happening in the pack? So that Delilah can return and become Luna for Jeremy." Aunt Disa sighs. "They love each other. Jeremy and Delilah are fated to be mates."I noticed Elijah's cold gaze turn to me and then back to Aunt Disa. Suddenly, I felt uncomfortable, like I was betraying Elijah, but at the same time, it felt like I was cheating on Jeremy."Delilah will not return to your pack, Disa. She is already part of mine," Elijah says firmly.Aunt Disa is visibly shoc

“It seems we need to meet with Elder Bishop soon about...” Elijah paused, “...the anomaly that’s happening to you.”Elijah’s words made me nervous. Do I have some kind of disease, or could this be a curse? I felt a wave of worry.“This isn’t a curse, is it?” I asked quietly.Elijah shook his head. “No, Delilah. But I can’t be sure until we talk to Elder Bishop and find out the cause.”“You’re not going to do anything to me, are you?”Elijah shook his head again. “Of course not. I just hope Elder Bishop can come up with an explanation.”I gave a weak nod. “All right, then, my king. Thank you.”“Try to calm yourself.”“I am calm; I want to check on Victoria.” I sighed. “Oh dear, I feel so guilty. Can I see her and apologize? I didn’t mean to hurt her, my king.”“No need.” Elijah tilted his head slightly toward me. “What for?”“But...”“I’ve already asked Vincent to dismiss her. She won’t be your tutor anymore.”Elijah stood and walked to the window, opening it wider. The late afternoon

“Good morning, Auntie!” I greeted cheerfully.Aunt Disa, who was in her room, turned around and gave me a warm smile. I quickly stepped inside and closed the door behind me.“You weren’t in your room last night,” Aunt Disa said bluntly.I felt embarrassed and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Yeah, about that...” I cleared my throat awkwardly. “I was with King Elijah.”Aunt Disa didn’t say anything; she just made a slight ‘oh’ face before picking up her cup from the coffee table and taking a small sip.“Did King Elijah tell you about being my tutor?” I asked, trying to change the subject.“Actually, no. But King Elijah met with me this morning before he left with Beta Vincent.”Yes, I had overslept because I couldn’t stop making out with the king most of the night. My face immediately heated up. The memories of what we did were still vivid in my mind. It felt like Elijah’s touch was still on me.“What did he say to you, Auntie?” I asked curiously.“He asked me to join his pack.

"Vincent?"I call to the Beta as I knock on his room door. I hope Vincent is still in his room because Elijah seems to be sleeping. This is my chance to talk to the King's right-hand man.It doesn't take long before the door opens, and Vincent appears, freshly dressed and looking great. He gives me a respectful nod."Queen Delilah, good morning," he greets me. "What brings you here? This is not a place you're supposed to visit."According to the kingdom's rules, it's improper for someone of higher status to seek out those of lower status unless it's to confront or capture them. This is an outdated, unclear rule.I gently clear my throat. "I need to talk to you, and it's important.""Shall we talk on the back patio of the villa, my queen?" Vincent suggests.I nod in agreement and wait for Vincent to leave his room. We walk side by side to the back terrace. The morning air feels refreshing as I step outside and take a deep breath.I sit down while Vincent stands a few steps away from me

I rested my chin on the table and watched Aunt Disa and the maids in the kitchen, cooking and laughing together. They looked so happy and peaceful; I wished I could feel the same way. Just like back in the Davenport pack, everything felt comfortable and carefree.But I wasn't fortunate enough to enjoy that kind of simple life.My mind was in complete chaos, replaying the past few days' events. I couldn't even bring myself to talk to Vincent because of my guilt. Let alone face Elijah; I was too scared to even catch a glimpse of him from a distance. I avoided him altogether.My eyes met Aunt Disa's across the room."Deli? What's wrong?" Aunt Disa noticed my somber expression.I tried to hide it, but it seemed impossible since I'm a terrible liar.I shook my head quickly. "Nothing."Aunt Disa returned the salad spoon to the bowl and wiped her hands. She walked over and sat down next to me."You wouldn't look like this if it was nothing," she said. "Come on, tell me. Don't keep your feel

“We’re going to meet Elder Bishop,” Elijah said.I blinked. Tonight? All of a sudden?“Does it have to be tonight?” I asked.“I don’t want to waste any time. Besides, meeting Elder Bishop at night will be safer,” Elijah replied. “We could stay at the castle. After all, I’m supposed to live there, right?”I couldn’t argue with Elijah, so I could only nod weakly.Elijah came closer and took my hand. His demeanor was completely different from the last time—could he really be done being angry?Is he one of those short-tempered guys who explodes in the moment and then forgets about it? Whereas the consequences of his actions could leave scars on another wolf’s heart for decades.I glanced at Vincent, who was walking behind us, and noticed a slight smile on his lips.“But I’m not prepared for this. I’m still dressed like this,” I said quickly, trying to make an excuse. “When we go to the castle, I don’t want to be made fun of again.”Elijah chuckled. “Then let’s go to Eugenia’s first.”“I c

The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 144. Be Alpha Queen?
Catherine's body was carried by the royal alphas, treated with care and reverence despite her father's heinous deeds. Catherine was just a victim of Camden's greed. I watched as Camden's face turned pale at the sight of his only daughter lying lifeless. He howled in agony, mourning her departure.Regret never comes at the beginning.This was Camden's reality.Elijah stood and faced me. I could feel the restlessness in his aura, the uncertainty as our eyes locked."Why, Delilah?" There was disappointment in Elijah's voice. "So it's true? You were purposely raised as a secret weapon by the non-royal wolves?""Wow! Watch your mouth, Elijah," Jeremy scoffed."Stop! Both of you!" I sna

The plan had been carefully laid out, and everyone was already marching to the palace to destroy Wanda. Alderwood was eerily quiet, with no one outside. Even the shops were closed. In the human world, they only knew it as a gang war. Yes, that was the rumor that had been spread. And the police could not do anything about it. They were only guarding the perimeter near the residential areas. "What's going on, my king?" I asked as we passed the closed shops. "I just want to end this war. And repay a debt to someone." My eyebrows almost furrowed. "A debt?" "Yes." Elijah nodded. "If it weren't for him, I might not be with you now." Who was Elijah talking about? One of the royal alphas approached Elijah, interrupting our conversation. "At the last crossroads, we will all regroup and go to the palace together, my king," the Alpha said. "We'll wait for the others if they haven't arriv

Our conversation was interrupted by a knock at the door, and I quickly opened it. Eugenia and Michael stood on the threshold, and I immediately pulled them both into my arms."Eugenia, I'm so happy to see you!"It had been months since I had last seen Eugenia, and guilt was eating at me for not standing up for her when she was kidnapped.Eugenia wiped away tears. "I'm glad to see you too, Deli. I was so afraid something had happened to you.""I'm the one who was worried about you. Especially after you were taken. What happened after that?"Before Eugenia could answer, Elijah approached us and said a quick goodbye."I need to meet with the other alphas. There's something we need to discuss," Elijah said.I nodded. "Okay, my king.""See you at dinner." Elijah gave a small smile.After he left, Eugenia and Michael entered my room, and the three of us sat down to talk.Eugenia told me what had happened to her after she had been taken.

The news that Orson, Fergus, and Arlington had been taken down brought euphoria to the Davenport pack. I was grateful that there were no casualties, and most of the pack members from the three alphas decided to surrender.They had sworn allegiance to Elijah. I felt a tremendous sense of relief."We have already made plans to attack the palace in a few days. The rogue wolves have attempted small attacks several times, but we've been able to handle them," Jeremy reported over the phone."That's great. Thanks for the update, Jeremy.""Hold on, Deli. Elijah wants to talk to you."My excitement grew. Then I heard Elijah's deep, sexy throat clearing."Delilah?" he called.

The Arlington estate lay ahead—not too far, but I could see it was heavily guarded. Riddick stood beside me, glanced over, and nodded politely."In the end, we stand together against a common enemy. You once sought my help, and... here we are," Riddick chuckled softly. "Fate has led us in circles, only to bring us together again.""Thank you, Alpha Riddick. Especially in such a chaotic time, I did not expect you to offer your help.""This is for the good of all of us, King Elijah. Not just the interests of one side," Riddick said, patting me on the shoulder. "Let's get ready."When my palace was attacked, I fought back with everything I had to defend my territory. I had experience in war.But to attack another pack? That was another story.Maybe it was my mother's blood running through my veins, but I wasn't like Edison or Elena. They were raised to be superior royal wolves. Me? I was just a lost cub with Omega blood in my lineage.If I had E
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 139. The Birthmarks
The moment I saw the birthmark on my twins' shoulders, my head felt like it was going to explode. I had studied the kingdom's history from the beginning, and I knew that the Celestial Moon was cursed until their empire collapsed.And it was true—that was the symbol of the Celestial Moon Kingdom!Is this a joke? I denied it, thinking it must be a coincidence.So, in addition to Crescent Moon blood, do I also have Celestial Moon blood flowing through my veins? Why would this happen to my twins?"Deli, the she-wolves won't say a word! There's nothing to worry about. Besides, it's just a birthmark—it doesn't mean anything," Aunt Disa said."Do you really think so, Aunty? Even you can't lie to me. Your face says otherwise; you're worried, too!"Aunt Disa fell silent as if confirming my fears, which made me even more anxious.We were already in the middle of a war, and now this problem had to arise. What should I do?"We'

Upon returning to the Davenport Pack, Elijah immediately joined the other alphas in the back terrace area. A tent and chairs had already been set up for the royal alphas to sleep and have meetings with Jeremy.I was about to head back to my room to check on the twins when Jeremy approached me and stopped me for a moment."Deli, I need to talk to you about Elijah," Jeremy said bluntly.I didn't bring up his earlier statement about being willing to accept me anytime, as if it was a subtle threat to Elijah. Instead, I just nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed while Jeremy sat down on the sofa."What do you say about King Elijah? What about him?" I asked."We still haven't decided whether to tell him about you—about who you really are, Deli. We're afraid the royal wolves might turn on you... or worse, try to eliminate you.""We both know they are not as savage as the rogue wolves. They have honor and keep their promises, Jeremy."
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 137. Meet the Twin
My eyes caught a figure standing on the terrace. Elijah stood tall with his back to me. A bag was slung over his shoulder, and he wore a cap.The guards stood guard over him in a tight formation. As soon as I saw him, I ran toward him."My king?" I called out cautiously.Elijah turned, his gaze meeting mine almost unblinkingly. His face looked fine—no wounds, no signs of harm. The moment our eyes met, he smiled at me."Delilah...""Thank the moon goddess, you're all right, King Elijah.""I'm sorry... I must have worried you, didn't I?"We embraced. Relief washed over me now that I was finally reunited with him. Even though our situation was on the brink of disaster, we were together again. No matter how heavy the burdens ahead, we would face them together.The sound of approaching footsteps made Elijah turn away. He turned to the doorway where Michael and Jeremy stood, and he gave a small nod."Alpha Jeremy," Elijah acknowledged. "I

"I can explain, Jeremy!" I squeaked.Jeremy scoffed and shook his head in disbelief. "You're causing trouble when we're trying to solve a problem!""They came here to help us!"But Jeremy didn't give me a chance to speak. He walked off with the patrol leader while Dad half dragged me inside."Have you thought about Aurora and Albert?" Dad's voice was soft - not judgmental, just concerned.I took a deep breath and looked at Michael. A small sigh escaped his nose as he walked beside me, Michael's head bowed."You're hurt too. What if you were hurt worse and didn't survive?" Dad continued. "Let's treat your wounds first—yours and Michael's, okay?"I just nodded obediently and walked into the living room. As soon as Michael and I sat down, Dad left the room. My eyes focused on Michael."I'm sorry, Michael," I whispered regretfully."It's okay, Deli. Alpha Jeremy has every right to be mad at me. I should have protected you.""But yo
