The Alpha King's Hated Mate 101. A Huge Thorn
HAYLEE~~Benita and I have been sitting in my room in silence. She came to me to talk, but all she had done was breathe and avoid eye contact. Although I couldn't blame her for running off after Jose spoke rudely to her, I was vexed that she would let a man come between us. She even turned Maeve and Orla against me, even though I did nothing wrong. “What a friend.” Liya snarled within me, and I would have said those same words to Benita if I didn't feel the need to squash this before it grew to become a huge thorn. “We don't have to talk now, Benita. It's been a long day so we can do this tomorrow—”“Were you sleeping with him too?”She chose that second to blurt, her eyes trained on the floor even though she was sitting close to me on my bed. That was a question she should have asked me instead of ignoring me like I was a filthy pest.“No, I had never. I didn't even know he had become a gigolo.” I replied without thinking twice. “Then what were you doing there that day?” Benita

ALPHA KING XALEN~~I didn’t expect to find Sophia’s nanny, who hasn’t been doing much nannying since Haylee got here and the kids showed their preference for her, in Haylee’s room. In fact, I didn’t wait another second after I knocked once before I pushed her bedroom door open.Benita, who had worked closely with my family over the years, froze on the spot as her eyes cut to my frame. She was shocked, but her eyes weren’t as wide as Haylee’s.“My King…” Benita voiced, bowing her head within a twinkle of an eye. Haylee facepalmed behind Benita, and before I knew it, her voice broke into my mind. “What are you doing here so late? They will get suspicious.” As soon as she said that to me, she also bowed and breathed, “Good evening, Alpha King Xalen. Do you need me to do something for you, or is this about Jodie?” “She’s such a drama queen.” Theo chortled within me as we both understood what Haylee was playing at.I played along, playing my part even more than Haylee expected, even t

HAYLEE~~I felt terrible.I have seen people look at me with accusations in their eyes. Even Benita did when she first asked me about Jose, and I didn’t let that ruin my mood because I believed she didn’t know any better. However, seeing the same accusatory look that I have seen in my dad’s eyes countless times, even when I did nothing wrong, in Alpha King Xalen’s eyes broke my heart.Even a fool would know that he was comparing me to his late mate once again. He promised to never do that again, but here we are.Last night, I read letters with him, but tonight, I had become a suspect.He might even think I dropped the letters where he found them. That would make perfect sense to him just because I went to Jose’s room. Oh, I hated this mess.“He is still here. Hiding under the covers won’t send him away, Haylee,” Liya said to me, sounding calm when I expected that she would be angry with me.I snapped through the mental link between my wolf and me, “He can stand there till morning fo

ALPHA KING XALEN~~I didn’t expect to hear that Jose, or should I call him Leo, was Haylee's childhood friend and best friend until recently. From the way she spoke about him, her affectionate tone, and the pain in her eyes, I could tell that Haylee was sad about how she and Jose left things.“You lost your friend because of me, huh?” I stated, squeezing her hand. Haylee shook her head. “Not really. I think he hates me because I couldn’t reciprocate the feelings he had for me. Maybe that’s why he became a womanizer—” “Whoa. What feelings are we talking about?” I cut in with a query that had Haylee’s eyes cutting into mine. She hesitated but still answered, “He claimed to be in love with me, and from what Kaylee said, his feelings for me were one of the reasons he rejected her.” “I don’t like the sound of that,” I stated bluntly, hating the idea of Jose harboring feelings for Haylee. Theo seethed within me, “I should have killed him when I had the chance. Now I can’t rip his he
Last Updated : 2025-02-24The Alpha King's Hated Mate 105. My First Kiss
HAYLEE~~I guess it could still be a perfect night after one or two confrontations. The feel of Alpha King Xalen’s lips on mine woke the horny she-wolf within me. It was as if she knew I couldn’t do it alone, so she came out to play. She matched Alpha King Xalen’s energy, took everything he gave, and gave it back to him. She moaned into the kiss repeatedly, making me feel like I was floating. She had never been kissed like this before. She had never felt so much emotion within her body. She was me. I was the horny she-wolf who couldn’t get enough of her mate. I didn’t know what exactly the kiss was doing to me, but I knew I didn’t want the feeling that came with it to end because it felt so good. Without hesitating, I wiped my memory of the kiss Jose and I shared and the one with Alpha King Xalen that I could barely remember and counted this one as my first kiss. I had never imagined that my first kiss would be this perfect.It was perfect enough to get a protesting whimper ou
Last Updated : 2025-02-24The Alpha King's Hated Mate 106. Guiding Light
ALPHA KING XALEN~~Waking up in Sophia’s bed wasn't exactly what I needed to get my mind off the memorable and passionate moment Haylee and I shared last night. Although I still yearn to have more of Haylee, I was able to release some tension by sleeping in my daughter's bed.It was like opening the dam of desire a little so I could think straight because I needed to stay focused right now. I had a couple of missions to accomplish. I had to find out who Laura was working for and who she was sleeping with. I had to figure out if I could trust Roy. I also had to have a talk with Jose, who I still believed could be of help, whether the hard way or the easier one.Not to forget that I had to find evidence to back up my claim when I said that Alpha Richard killed Laura and tried to wipe out my family years ago.But before doing any of that, I needed to make sure I was on the same page with my daughter. I had been in her bed all night, and she was currently sleeping on my chest, but I be

HAYLEE~~I almost didn’t want to get out of bed that morning. Who would want that when they could stay in bed and dream about the smoking hot man who filled my soul with feelings I didn’t know I had the ability to release? I most likely would have stayed in bed if Liya hadn’t said to me, “What’s good is staying in bed and dreaming about him when you can just walk down the hallway and see the real thing?” That got me out of bed, and I quickly freshened up, but not even the warm water from the shower washed the smile off my face. I thought I would have to get through my morning routine before I got to see Xalen, but to my surprise, I found him in Jodie’s nursery with Sophia and Asher. And they all looked squeaky clean. “Haylee!” Asher clapped with excitement as soon as I stepped into Jodie’s nursery. Before I could respond or even take a closer look at every one of them, both Sophia and Asher ran to hug me. I dropped to my knees so I could hold them better and whisper to them, “Y

Princess Allison’s POV ~~I thought I was supposed to pick up his broken pieces and glue them back together. But why the fuck is he grinning? Why the fuck is he looking like he has got his whole life in order?And why would he even think of taking the slave out? What's with him and the slave, for goddess sake! Never have I felt the need to be jealous of an ugly-ass, plank-looking slave. She looked deprived of everything, including beauty. The sight of her makes me want to throw her off a bridge, especially when I see her in an expensive outfit that I know she didn't have enough money to buy. “He bought that for her?” Nala growled within me. I didn't realize I cared more than I should, even when jealousy oozed out of me in waves. “He wouldn't buy her clothes, would he? Why would he do that?” Nala asked me questions I couldn't answer.But I was ready to pour out all the anger ripping through me. In the past, I would have thrown a tantrum just because I needed to do that to achieve

The Alpha King's Hated Mate 175. One of Them
ALPHA KING XALEN~~It wasn't surprising when Gladys confirmed that, truly, Uncle Calvin's death happened over two months ago, and neither was I stunned when she announced that he was poisoned with loads of poisonous silver.“Whoever fake Calvin was, he helped us figure out a lot even though he was trying to do the opposite,” Theo told me as Roy and I walked towards my pack office, where I planned to meet with Evan and Wyatt.I couldn't disagree because Theo was completely right.Thanks to fake Calvin, I discovered that Laura and I had a fake bond, made up with Roy, and found my way to Haylee without having to feel guilty.Thanks to fake Calvin, I understand that I had to be careful because even though I had lost so much, I still had so much more to lose.“It's unbelievable, My King,” Wyatt breathed after we all settled down in my Pack office. “The healers explained the result of the examination to us, but I can’t believe such a thing happened, and we didn’t know until now.”Evan no
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 174. Plate of Poison
HAYLEE~~“She didn’t show up.”My wolf, who heard every thought that crossed my mind throughout the night, said this as soon as my eyes fluttered open for the hundredth time that morning.I had been slipping in and out of consciousness all through the night, hoping and longing to be sucked into the realm that allowed me to communicate with a woman I knew nothing about but who had proven to be valuable after Elder Calvin was found where she said he would be, even though she didn’t mention that he was dead.A realm where I could be Nerina.But even though I tried, I didn’t get to meet with my supposed mother.“Or I failed to connect with her.” I sighed, pushing myself off Xalen’s bed, which we both fell into last night after we hit a dead end with the red wolf theory, but he wasn’t here at the moment. “I remember she said something about how I brought her to that realm the last time we were there.”“That’s accurate, and the two times you were able to reach her, you and Xalen connecte
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 173. Princess Allison’s POV (18)
Princess Allison’s POV~~It’s been a crazy, humiliating day for me.I still hadn’t gotten over the marks Haylee and Alpha King Xalen had given themselves overnight, yet I was getting accused of murder. Not that I cared that Elder Calvin was dead, but it kinda worried me to think he was gone.I mean, wasn’t he the same man I had been talking to over the phone? I thought he had been helping me, or should I say I had been led to believe he was the mystery ally I thought could help me.After the news of what he did spread, I simply assumed he was working with my dad, and while that would be a conflict of interest, I believed my dad had found a way to tie Elder Calvin down just like he did to the red wolf in our basement.“We have to reach out to him, Allie. I know you are terrified, but now that Elder Calvin is dead, you need to know what’s going on,” Nala said, urging me to drop my fears and call my dad.My dad had tried to reach me this morning. In fact, I missed several calls from h
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 172. Red Wolf
HAYLEE~~I had never seen Roy so out of control. Even when he was mad at Xalen, his anger was contained, and he meticulously planned his next move. But the second he saw Allison, who could easily be his dad’s killer, he lost it all.Some of the curse words that slipped past his lips had never been heard before now, and Allison looked frightened because she could sense that the man approaching her wasn’t the same one she had overlooked many times since he returned to the pack.He was angry.He was a ferocious alpha male whose anger had driven him to the point of violence.Fortunately for Allison, Flavia caught up to Roy before he could get to her. She wrapped her arms around his midsection and skillfully twisted around him, standing between him and Allison within a second.“No, Roy,” Flavia uttered, holding his gaze while he shook visibly.“She is one of them, babe! She is Richard’s daughter, and she could have easily carried out his evil work. She could be the killer and I have to—
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 171. Tear Her Apart
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“This doesn't make any sense,” Roy blurted before I could, shaking his head, and I assumed he was thinking back to the last time we saw and heard his dad. “He shot me about ten days ago. He spoke to me, so you are mistaken.”Flavia immediately understood Roy's emotional turmoil. She removed her healer’s coat and walked up to her mate, holding him so her scent could calm him down.“I think we should take this to a more private place. Something is off, and now everyone should be a suspect,” Flavia murmured, looking around as a few of my men and healers moved around to do their thing.Gladys muttered, “I will stay here to keep an eye on the body and cross-examine the results, my king. But I have to say that I don’t expect anything to change. This man has been dead almost since the time the queen passed away.”My heart tightened not just because it killed me to hear that but also because I was confused. How could that be?I recall having many deep moments with Uncle
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 170. The Mystery
ALPHA KING XALEN~~Goddess, I was driven by undiluted rage.I mean, how dare he point fingers at my woman? My Haylee!Yes, Evan didn’t know who gave me the information, nor did he know that Haylee had become my mate. My marked mate, in fact. Evan’s explanation was also logical, but who cares about logic?He definitely wouldn’t care when he discovered the whole truth.“This is why we should tell the pack about the bond as soon as possible. I am not sure I can stand any more of these disrespects and accusations that are getting thrown at Haylee,” Theo gritted within me, coming to Haylee’s defense.I agreed with my wolf and made the decision to introduce Haylee to the entire pack the next day. I had to spend the entire day away from her because of my uncle, and when I leave here, I will have to go to the healers’ examination room to get updates.Being away from Haylee was hard—harder than finding my uncle’s dead body in a well.Evan, whose oblivion to my state of mind would soon get hi
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 169. Alpha Prince Roy’s POV (9)
Alpha Prince Roy’s POV~~He did deserve to die.After everything he had done to me, to Xalen, and to the family, he deserved to die the most painful death.Falling into a well and breaking his neck on impact seemed like an excruciating way to die, and yes, my betrayer of a father deserved it. I fully agree with this perspective, but why the hell was I burning with anger?Why did my eyes sting as I watched warriors pull his decaying body out of the well after hours of discussing the best possible way to do that? Why did I feel the need to punch someone, anyone, just because I found out that my father was dead?I didn’t understand this feeling, but I tried to explain it and convince myself that I was this angry because I didn’t get to torture my dad before he died. The initial plan after he shot Xalen and me and escaped was to find him and make him pay, but how do we make a dead, rotting man pay for his crimes?Jax chimed within me, his anger merging with mine as we both watched my da
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 168. A Reliable King
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“I get that you are smitten, Xalen, but this isn’t logical,” Roy grumbled as we left the palace, walking side by side.“I am smitten but see no reason why this isn’t logical,” I responded as I opened my mind, finding the connection between my mind and Wyatt’s so I could ask him to meet Roy and me on the northern border.Haylee’s words echoed in my mind even though I had just left her in the palace with my overly excited kids and Flavia and Allison, but I wasn’t worried because I knew Haylee could defend herself.“Be careful out there and don’t involve anyone you can’t trust, Xalen. I need this to be true, not just to prove to the realm that you are a reliable King but also to confirm that I am not going insane.”Those were Haylee’s words. Even though I didn’t understand why she mentioned insanity, I knew better than to trust just anyone with the possible location of my traitorous uncle.Roy scoffed, snapping me out of my thoughts and taking my mind off Haylee. Sad
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 167. His Stepmama
HAYLEE~~That was unexpected.Allison choosing to walk away instead of picking to create a scene like she always does was unexpected, but I didn’t think much about it because I assumed she was still in shock.“She would never have thought you and Xalen would show up marked. Did you see her face?” Liya let out a wolfish chuckle in my mind, making fun of Allison as she walked away.I did see her face, and it was so damn funny.I was prepared to stand up against her and drag her through the mud if needed, but she had to ruin that for me by choosing to walk away. However, knowing her, I would most likely get more chances to pay her back with the same coin of humiliation that I got from her.After Allison left, Xalen settled at the head of the table, and he was served breakfast by one of the servants. They were all looking at me or at least sneaking peeks. I could perceive Maeve, Orla, and Benita in the hall even though I wasn’t looking at them.I was certain Benita would find me after b
