The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 35. Wrath and Desire
“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

Delilah's smile curled at the corners of her lips, visible from the side of my eye. She appreciated the little things as if they were extraordinary. Even though we were just having dinner.I wondered if I had lost that sense of excitement over time. Even enjoying the breeze blowing through the car window? I've forgotten how to enjoy life.I admit it."My king? Why aren't you eating?" Delilah turned to look at my plate."Not very hungry.""Then why did you bring me here if you didn't want to eat?""I just wanted to take you to dinner. That's all."Delilah didn't answer; she just lowered her head slightly with a gentle smile.Am I being too obvious? Or do I look weak in front of Delilah?I feel as if Delilah's gaze exposes me as if she can see my darkest side. Even when I've broken her, she's always gotten back up again despite the many times I've hurt her.I watched Delilah eat her food with enthusiasm.This is just a simple treat, but she looks so happy. I really made Delilah suffer,

We arrived at the castle after midnight, and the gatekeeper immediately opened the gates. As the car pulled in, several maids stepped out of the main entrance, forming a line as they waited for us to leave.So much for secrecy when we wanted to meet Bishop discreetly. Why do all the maids know we’re coming? It seems ridiculous.“My king, my queen,” the maids greeted us as Elijah and I walked past them.The maids followed us from behind, heading for the left wing of the castle where Bishop quarters were located. That’s where Elena was. We made two turns, passed three small gardens, and finally arrived at the Bishop’s residence.In front of us was a small gate guarded by two wolves. After the small gate, I saw three doors lined up on the left and right sides of the corridor.The guards immediately opened the door on the left.“Elder Bishop has been expecting you, my king and queen. Please come in,” the guard said in a polite tone.The moment we stepped inside, I could smell the scent of

Our lengthy discussion finally ended, but the conclusion remained unclear. What had happened to me had to be investigated through the lineage of the previous pack, the Davenport Pack. I kept quiet, though, because I didn’t want Elijah and Bishop to know that I wasn’t Papa’s biological child. It wasn’t the right time yet, or maybe it was something I didn’t need to reveal.Since it was too late to return to the mansion, we decided to spend the night at the castle. Elijah and I slept in the right wing, which was eerily quiet. No one was around in this area, which is almost twice the size of the mansion.I could hardly sleep, thinking about the possibilities Bishop had laid out. Even though Elijah and Bishop tried to reassure me that I wasn’t necessarily a descendant of the Celestial Moon pack, I was still worried. Bishop had said that what had happened to me was a blessing. Since the Celestial Moon Pack had been cursed in the past and had become a forgotten myth, if I were their desc

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."

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
