The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 50. Elijah: King Alpha's Wrath
“King Elijah! Wait!”I ignored Vincent’s call as I stormed out of the room. He tried to match my pace, his aura brimming with fear.Vincent took a deep breath. “King Elijah, please hear me out.”“I will not reason with you, Vincent!” I snapped back, my voice steely.“Please, my king. Control your anger. If you act like this, we’ll never catch the real culprit,” Vincent pleaded.“Silence!” I roared.Vincent collapsed to the floor, writhing in pain. I won’t let anyone who tried to harm Delilah go unpunished—I’ll kill every last one of them.I rushed down the corridor and out of the main castle building. The royal wolves had gathered in the courtyard, some standing, others sitting with nervous expressions.The moment they saw me, they felt the fury emanating from my soul. All the royal wolves knelt down, wincing in fear.“Who dares defy me?” I demanded, my eyes scanning the crowd.“Please, my king...”Fergus crawled forward, his face flushed and his hand trembling as he reached out.“For

My body still ached when I woke to find the bedroom empty. Elijah was gone, and I had no idea where he could be. The morning sunlight was dimmer than usual, muted by the gray clouds looming in the sky.I forced myself to sit up on the edge of the bed, wincing as the throbbing pain returned. It wasn’t as intense as last night, but it was still there. Slowly, I got to my feet and reached the door, opening it cautiously.Empty.The hallway was eerily quiet, every door shut tight. It was strange—had everyone left after what happened to me? Were they afraid of the shooting?“Where is everyone?” I whispered to myself.I forced my sore body to move and walked down the hall and the stairs. Soon, I could hear the voices of the royal Lunas on the floor below. I didn’t know what they were doing there, but I had no intention of joining them. Instead, I lingered quietly, curious to hear what they were discussing. Their voices had an undertone of unease.“I never thought it would happen again. Alm

A week had passed, and my wounds had healed entirely.I could return to my activities; I returned to the woods and hills behind the mansion. Once again, though, I avoided Elijah.Ever since the shooting incident, Elijah had barely been at the mansion. He spent most of his time at the castle. I didn't know what he was doing there, but he was probably tracking the guards to solve the problem.I came downstairs, intending to go to the kitchen, but I bumped into Kat in the hallway. She seemed overwhelmed with the bedsheets she was carrying."Queen Delilah," she greeted me cheerfully."Where did you come from, Kat?""I just finished changing the sheets in King Elijah's room, and luckily, just in time." She let out a sigh of relief. "King Elijah will return to the mansion soon, so I had to tidy his room quickly.""He's coming back?"I didn't feel pleased about it. Although I felt a sense of longing, I tried to suppress it. My dark side whispered: Why long for someone who doesn't even ackno

I couldn’t sleep all night thinking about Aunt Disa’s words. I’ve decided to talk to Elijah and apologize to him. I won’t interfere with anything that concerns him anymore. Yes, that’s what I’m going to say.If Elijah doesn’t leave, I will find him during the day. If he’s at the mansion and his mood has improved, I will approach him.Just before dawn, I went to the hills behind the mansion. I was allowed out now, but only as far as the hills. At least there were no more guards following me.The fog thinned as I climbed the path, and the sun would soon rise. I quickened my pace, but my heart sank when I reached the top.Elijah was there, sitting, waiting for the sun to rise. There was no turning back—he had already noticed me standing frozen not far from him.But he didn’t say anything. Instead, he turned his attention back to the horizon.I cautiously approached him, keeping some distance. “Good morning, King Elijah,” I greeted him.“Morning.”I sat down and let out a deep sigh. My ne

"Queen Delilah!"I turned to the door and saw Kat panting and pale."What is it, Kat?""Beta Elena is here, and she wants to see you."Elena? Why is she here? I'd felt relieved ever since she stopped coming to the mansion. And now? Oh, this is so annoying.Kat hurried into the room and closed the door behind her. "Let me do your hair and makeup, my queen."I complied with her request and sat on the stool before the vanity. Kat began straightening my hair swiftly. Suddenly, the memory of seeing Tris in the garage the night before resurfaced."Did King Elijah leave anything in his car last night?" I asked.Kat met my gaze in the mirror and shook her head. "I don't think so, my queen. Why?""It's nothing.""We didn't hear when King Elijah arrived at the mansion. If he needed anything, Vincent would have woken me, Flo, or Tris.""Could Vincent have asked Flo or Tris to do it?"Kat shook her head again. "I'm not sure, my queen. Would you like me to ask them? Flo and Tris usually tell me ev

When I arrived at Eugenia’s boutique, I grabbed a few outfits, just enough to hide my real reason for being there. Eugenia looked confused as I hastily picked out clothes without even looking at them.“Didn’t King Elijah allow you to wear colors other than black?” Eugenia asked. “Take your time, my queen.”“Any of these will do. It doesn’t matter to me.”“You’re in such a hurry. Where are you going this time?”“I only have until dinner,” I replied.Eugenia looked at the clock on the wall. I still had more than an hour since Vincent had dropped me off.“Is there something you want to talk to me about?” Eugenia asked as if she could sense my true intentions.I couldn’t lie. “Yes, actually, there’s something important I need to know. Although I doubt you’re going to tell me.”“What is it?”“How Elijah became king. Because I have a feeling he wasn’t the rightful heir to the royal line, was he?”Eugenia’s face grew uncomfortable, turning pale as if caught off guard. She seemed conflicted.

Elijah arrived on time, and I don’t think he suspected anything. After a small talk with Eugenia and saying goodbye, we returned to the mansion.The drive back was silent between Elijah and me. My mind was utterly consumed by the story from the past, and it was absolutely shocking. I had never imagined that Elijah was actually descended from a half-Omega.No wonder Elijah was always so hard on me. He kept reminding me that I couldn’t be weak. I finally understood—Elijah didn’t want me to end up like him or his mother, who had been poorly treated.“Do you still think about what I said?” Elijah asked out of the blue.I shook my head. “No.”I heard Elijah sigh but didn’t bother to look at him. Sometimes, the pain crept in and made me even sadder. Sitting here alone with him was suffocating.Why wasn’t Vincent the one to pick me up? Why did it have to be Elijah?I hated this constant emotional turmoil. One moment, Elijah would be kind; the next, he would be angry, and worst of all, he wou
Last Updated : 2024-11-23The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 57. To Oak Valley
Elijah seemed serious about his plan. A few days later, he took me to Oak Valley, a small town between Pinecrest and Alderwood.I couldn't understand why he insisted that I come with him. Although this matter had nothing to do with me, I refrained from protesting or questioning his motives.We arrived in Oak Valley, a quiet, peaceful town. Surprisingly, most of the stores were closed for lunch, so the streets seemed almost deserted. Unlike Alderwood, where noon was the busiest time in town, this place felt quiet yet eerily still.We soon reached a large estate in the center of town. From the outside, it was clear that the three-story building, with its classical design, radiated wealth. There was a large fountain in the front yard, and a line of maids stood at attention, waiting to greet us."Whose place is this?" I whispered.Elijah leaned in and whispered back, "A powerful Alpha in this town."The maids led us to a spacious living room in the mansion, where an elderly couple stood t

The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 65. Home Again?
I woke up abruptly and looked around the room. Jeremy’s perfume filled the air. This was his room; I was sure of it. Even though he’d moved to a more spacious place, I knew his scent.But here, in my heart, I didn’t feel anything. Just emptiness.Instead, fear crept in. What about Elijah? Where was he now?I got out of bed quickly, even though my head still felt dizzy. I walked to the door, which was slightly ajar.“You’re awake, Deli?” Jeremy stood and looked at me.I stepped back carefully, my guard up. But Jeremy kept coming closer, trying to grab my hand. I slapped his hand away and stood defensively.“Why did you do that?” I yelled. “Why did you make me leave my King Alpha’s mansion?”“Deli? What did he do to you?” Jeremy’s face filled with worry. “You’re home now. You’re here with me, with all of us. Please, calm down.”Tears welled up and finally spilled over as I began to sob. This wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted everything to be as promised. If things stayed like this, there w
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 64. Be Mine
I forced a laugh because Elijah's statement made me feel semi-panic. I don't know if he notices my fake laugh, but this conversation needs to move on quickly. I lean over and kiss Elijah on the top of his head. It was a bold move, but what else could I do?Suddenly, Elijah looked up, pulled my neck, and locked his lips on mine. I didn't have to fake it. In fact, I was very sad that I couldn't help Elijah. My position only temporarily distracted him.Elijah got up without breaking our kiss. We walked hand in hand to the bed, and he carefully lowered me onto it. "I like the smell of your body," Elijah whispered after breaking the kiss. Elijah's finger traced the middle of my chest, and his eyes were still on me. I couldn't escape Elijah's power, like my body was following some buried instinctive desire. Elijah's hand moved to the bulging part of my body, squeezing and pinching. I bit my lower lip and felt the heat overflow. "All right, we're going to sleep now," Elijah said suddenly
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 63. When Wolves Collide
Tension filled the air. Watching Elijah and Jeremy's confrontation made me panic. There was no pride in being fought over by two alphas like this—only the certainty of dire consequences. Why is this happening to me? "My king, please." I approached Elijah and shook my head weakly, trying to calm him. "Please, I don't want any trouble here." My eyes flicked to Jeremy, who looked disappointed I had chosen to stand by Elijah. I appreciated Jeremy, but there were more pressing matters to attend to. Jeremy should have understood; I had already explained everything to him. Jeremy had acted rashly, challenging Elijah and demanding to take me back to Pinecrest. But what I wanted was to resolve my issues with Elijah first. Only then could I return to my old pack. Now, instead of resolving the matter with Tracy, a new problem has arisen. "She's not your slave!" Jeremy declared firmly. "Let her go, now!" Elijah's anger flared. "Who said Delilah was my slave? I've said from the beginning that
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 62. The Truth Revealed
My body trembled as my eyes locked with Tracy's. I shouldn't be afraid, but the pressure she exerted and the memories of her trying to kill me made my courage waver.Tracy grinned, probably thinking she could meet me and win."King Elijah! This woman doesn't deserve you!" Tracy shouted.Elijah remained calm, his eyes shifting between Tracy and me. Meanwhile, everyone else in the room was muttering, visibly uncomfortable for Jeremy, who stood with the same calm expression as Elijah."And who deserves me?" Elijah asked Tracy.Hearing his answer, Tracy was startled. "Obviously not her!""But Delilah is my mate," Elijah replied. "And you're out of line to accuse my Luna of being a traitor in your pack. Here she is the queen, and you will respect that!"Tracy stammered. "But... but I can explain! Everyone in the pack witnessed it - Delilah ran away because she cheated on Jeremy. She left with another man.""You mean me?" Elijah raised an eyebrow. "I didn't steal Delilah. The truth is much
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 61. The Alpha's Meeting
I was incredibly nervous. Today, the outsider alphas came to the mansion precisely one week after I met Jeremy in Oak Valley. Riddick, along with other alphas from nearby towns—Pinecrest, perhaps—was on the guest list. I wasn’t sure if Jeremy would attend, but deep down, I knew he would show up.“I don’t think you should meet these alphas, Deli,” Aunt Disa said bluntly as she stood behind me and brushed my hair. “I have a bad feeling about it.”“Like what?”“Jeremy might show up.”Of course, Jeremy would be here. He promised to take care of things with the Davenport pack and then return to me.I hadn’t told Aunt Disa about my secret meeting with Jeremy. I just didn’t think she needed to know. She wouldn’t tell anyone, but her body language could give it away. If she seemed uncomfortable around Elijah, suspicions might arise.But maybe I should tell her now.“When Jeremy gets here, I think it’s the perfect time to tell the truth,” I said.Aunt Disa’s eyes widened in shock. “What? Are y
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 60. Elijah: The Brat Alpha and the King
Why is Delilah acting like that? She was staring out the window, lost in thought, and I knew she was hiding something. I couldn’t be sure if she was hurt by my decision. Delilah’s demeanor was too calm. If she was still upset, her eyes would have shown a trace of resentment when I entered the room. But she didn’t. “Vincent?” I called quietly and knocked on the door. Vincent opened it for me, and after I entered and sat down on the daybed, he closed the door and stood nearby. “Delilah didn’t go to the spa, did she?” I asked. “Why do you ask, my king?” “Just answer me.” Vincent nodded. “She met with Alpha Jeremy of the Davenport pack.” Hearing this irritated me a little. How dare Delilah lie to me? Still, I couldn’t barge into her room and demand that she spill her tea. Yet, part of me was afraid that Delilah would reveal everything to that brat of an Alpha. When I saw the Jeremy boy enter the meeting hall, he boldly met my gaze. No wonder—he’d just met with Delilah. It was no
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 59. Secret Meeting
My mind went blank as I tried to explain to Jeremy, but he had already led me into a quiet alley. His breathing was heavy, and he growled softly, his intense gaze sharp and intimidating.“Why?” he asked again.I could have told him everything, but my tongue felt tied, and my body shook. I was in shock and didn’t know what to do. All I could do was hold back tears, but it was useless; my tears flowed freely.“Please, just let me go. I can’t explain right now,” I said.“Did you leave the pack because of another wolf?”“No!” I said firmly.Jeremy grabbed both my arms. “Whose scent is marking you? I can smell it.”“Stop, Jeremy. You don’t know what’s happening to me!”“Then tell me!” he snapped, frustrated. “Just tell me everything, Delilah! By the moon goddess, I’ve always loved you! I want to see you every day and every night!”My defenses crumbled, and I couldn’t stop myself from sobbing. Jeremy’s tight grip turned into a warm embrace. In his arms, I felt the comforting scent of the ho
The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me 58. A Familiar Scent
As dinnertime approached, Elijah returned to the room and went straight to the shower before rushing to get dressed. I sat quietly on the edge of the bed, stealing glances at him. Even though he had already rejected me, watching him like this made my heart race uncontrollably."Is there something you want to tell me?" Elijah asked suddenly, looking at me with a slight smirk. "You've been stealing glances for a while now.""I-I..." Why was I stammering?"You must have something on your mind," he added.I cleared my throat quietly. "May I take a short ride outside the estate? Vincent will accompany me."Elijah nodded quickly. "Yes, sure.""Really?""I'll be attending a dinner with the Alphas soon," Elijah said, changing the subject. "Luna Rita might invite you to dinner as well. If you want to go out, just let her know.""Thank you, my king."Elijah hurried out of the room, leaving me alone. My heart raced at the thought of being invited to dinner. I had no idea what I would talk to R
