When did Haylee become such a fighter? What's gotten into her? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. I'm sorry for not updating yesterday. A stressful trip to the market for necessities took all day, and I still have a headache. I'll try to post more chapters today. Thanks for reading, Kiki.
ALPHA KING XALEN~~I was shaking with rage.With every step I took, the anger bubbling within me intensified. As if it wasn’t enough that I had failed to find my traitorous uncle even though it had been a week since he escaped, I had also been disrespected by the council of elders.Earlier today, I was called to their courts and found out that I had just twenty days left to make Allison my queen or give up the power and title that I held.How did sixty days become twenty?It was all thanks to Calvin. His actions brought shame to the LeRoy family, and people began to lose trust in us. With the royal family wielding all the power, the support of our subjects was vital.Without their allegiance, I risked becoming a tyrant, and soon the war my parents had so diligently kept at bay would descend upon the realm.“They can’t make us marry or even mate with her,” Theo hissed maliciously, his rage mixing with mine and creating a perfect blend that had every nerve in my body acting up.But t
HAYLEE~~It didn't end with a kiss.I didn't let it end with a kiss. Heck! I couldn't let it end because I wanted more. My body was in charge, or, to be precise, the raw power flowing through me was in charge, and it was driving me insane.Insanely horny.After a moment of insane anger that had me physically jumping José with the intention of showing him who I had become. Or maybe it was who I could become when triggered.Gosh! I hate this energy.No! I loved this energy. I loved how it heightened my senses and made Xalen’s touches ten times hotter. My entire body became so sensitive—sensitive enough to form a tight knot within my stomach, pulling loud moans from me.“Hey.” Xalen groaned, my name slipping past his lips before I took them with mine, tasting like the hungry she-wolf that I had become. “Haylee, we have to stop.”Xalen managed to put space between our bodies, but it was only for a second.In that second, I also whimpered before locking our lips once more, “We don't hav
HAYLEE~~Euphoria beat through me as I fell into a peaceful slumber. Xalen’s scent and arms wrapped around me, helping me fall deeper and deeper into a realm I didn't know existed. Although I was unconscious and deeply asleep, I was still conscious of the way my heartbeat decreased.The slow thump in my chest propelled me—or better still, propelled my soul—into a dimension where I felt like some floating but lost angel.With Xalen in my bedroom, where he just made me cum… made me a woman. Even the thought of that made this floating angel smile and find her way within an unfamiliar dimension. But that wasn’t the point I was trying to make.The point is that with Xalen, I was sleeping, but I was deeply awake in this dimension, and I knew it. Somehow, I wasn’t confused about the state of my mind. However, I was curious.At first, the dimension was a blank space with nothing but emptiness, but within a twinkle of an eye, it became a very big hall with glass walls that were so far apart
HAYLEE~~“Everything okay?” Xalen asked, pushing himself into a sitting position the second he sensed that I was no longer in his arms.I didn’t know how to answer that question. In my mind, I was certain that what I saw was real, but in that same mind, confusion dwelled, pressing heavily against everything I knew—everything I had believed all my life.I mean, didn’t my dad hate me because I looked like my mom? Goddess, I looked nothing like that woman.She could pass for milk, and her voice could heal a broken soul. How could I even compare to her? Plus, wasn’t she supposed to be dead? Did I just commune with a ghost? A fine-ass one at that?Gosh, I was meant to despise her, yet with her gone, I felt empty. I felt like I shouldn’t exist without her. Like it was a crime to exist without her. I didn’t know who the hell this woman was—“She said she named you. She said she is our mom,” Liya blurted into my mind while I stared into space, unable to form the right words to say to Xalen
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“All spies have been sent out, Alpha King Xalen,” Evan announced to me as soon as he and Wyatt entered my home office that afternoon.It had been three days since I found out that I had just twenty days left to make a choice between my throne and the amazing life I knew I could have with my family, and when I say family, that included Haylee.Although I noticed that she had been distant after I told her about the new development, I still couldn’t forget how she whimpered and curled while I curled my tongue and fingers within her. I had a taste of her, and I had been craving more, but these days, she had been preoccupied with training her new ability.If she weren’t training, she would be with the kids or sleeping.I believed she was avoiding me even though Flavia and Roy claimed she was just confused and needed rest.“That’s good to know, Evan. Thank you,” I said to my Beta, who bowed his head slightly.Wyatt muttered, “We should have news before the week runs out
Princess Allison’s POV~~Clearly, I had been wasting my time all this while. Listening to my dad and following his plans step by step had delayed my victory.Just look at this. Look at the mighty Alpha King caressing my body like a starved man. Look at him gazing at me with an emotion that I knew too well. LUST. Xalen was right where I needed him to be—in my arms—and soon he would be balls deep within me. “This is true power.” Nala cooed within me, sounding intoxicated as I drew from the source of energy that had been planted within me. The red wolf had taught me how to activate the power and under my dad's commands, she also informed me that I had to wait till the energy source grew to its fullest before activating it but with just seventeen days left before my Dad would have his way, I couldn’t wait any longer Not when I knew that Xalen would rather leave the throne than take me as his Queen. Although I still haven’t figured out why, I was damn sure Haylee had a lot to do wit
HAYLEE~~The feeling was sharp and sudden. It was also unmissable, causing me to inhale sharply.It wasn’t fatigue, even though I had been training all day with Flavia and the oldest healer in the Royal Pack, Gladys, who had been helping me figure out the mystery behind my power. I was just considering sharing my vivid dream with her the other day when the sharp and sudden feeling zapped through me.It was mild at first, but it became intense, and my head began to ache within a split second.“Argh.” I groaned, holding my head.That groan caught Flavia and Gladys's attention, but before they could ask any questions, an unfamiliar voice broke into my mind.“Get to Xalen, Haylee. He needs your help!” The voice said with urgency, and my heart rate spiked.I rose to my feet, my eyes falling on Flavia and then on Jodie, who was in her arms. I thought about the kids. Do I leave them?“You have to, Haylee. That was Theo’s voice,” Liya said anxiously. “Something is wrong—”Before Liya coul
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“How dare you?”Haylee.That was Haylee, right?“Yes, dammit!” Theo’s voice resonated in my mind, the level of his anger matching that of Haylee, whose voice was still echoing within my ears.What the hell happened? Why is Haylee angry?“Seriously? You can’t recall?” Theo hissed into my mind, disbelief and rage etched in every one of his words.My mind felt a little foggy, and I couldn’t react, even though Haylee and Allison got into a fight right before my eyes. It wasn’t until my foggy mind realized that I was naked and so was Allison that a strong wave of realization hit me.“Allison tried to seduce me!” I breathed, quickly forcing my body to move, and I picked up my clothes to cover up.Goddess, this was the living room. My kids could walk in.Gosh, my mate had already walked in.“Please tell me she didn’t succeed. Tell me I didn’t sleep with her, Theo.” I pleaded with my wolf, my eyes fixed on Haylee, who punched Allison in the face, grunting like a wounded a
HAYLEE~~Xalen didn’t understand me fully, and I didn’t expect him to because even I didn’t understand myself. I haven’t wrapped my head around my mother and my powers, so why should he?However, he had good advice for me, and he whispered it into my ears as his arms tightened around me, “One thing I know about power is that you can control it better when you stop trying to control it. I want to believe you are experiencing a block, Nerina. Relax and let this happen naturally, just like it did the day we made love.”That was advice that I should take seriously, but thinking about the first time Xalen and I made love sucked all seriousness out of me. My lips stretched into an uncontrollable smile, steamy memories filling my mind rapidly.And did he just call me Nerina? My smile widened even more, and I couldn’t be happier.“I am your person, Haylee. I will always be your person, so you can always talk to me about anything.” Xalen continued speaking, kissing my forehead and wrapping
ALPHA KING XALEN~~Running a pack with no elders would be harder, but I have come to realize that running an entire realm without the Elders in seat to handle issues from various packs was so much harder. The pressure increased day by day, and I wasn’t the only one bearing the brunt.Evan and Wyatt were in the same boat.Even though he had been burying himself in the population account documents, Roy was affected.Also, even though I tried to keep Haylee from the pressure, she had volunteered to handle some of the responsibilities.We hardly got to see each other these days, and even though it’s only been five days since I stripped the Elders of their power, it felt like forever.Fortunately, Haylee and I had decided that today would be a work-free day. We slept in, staying in bed even though we had been awake before daybreak. We chatted about the past five days and focused more on how well the people were accepting Haylee as their soon-to-be-crowned queen.“They can sense that you
Princess Allison’s POV~~My hands shook visibly, yet I dared not let the phone slip. I wouldn’t dare to ignore it because my back was against the wall, and no matter how cruel my dad could be, he was the only one who could help me find my way back to the right path.Or so I thought as I answered the call and put the cell phone to my ear.“What the hell have you been up to, Allison?” My dad couldn’t wait for me to find my voice before he yelled those words at me, slapping me right in the face even though he was still miles away from me.He continued impatiently, “What the hell do you think you are doing? How could you create this kind of mess? How could you humiliate me like this?”I exhaled, breathing through my mouth as I said, “What exactly have I done wrong? As far as I am concerned, you taught me everything I have done so far.”“Seriously?” My dad barked, and it took everything in me not to throw my cell phone against the nearest wall. “Did I teach you to get pregnant? Did I te
Princess Allison’s POV ~~Goddess! I was boiling with rage.But mostly drowning in the harsh sea of humiliation. That was supposed to happen differently. I shouldn’t be the one getting lashed by Haylee’s words. They felt like whips on my body, and even though I was currently far from her, I could still feel her words burning into my skin.I could feel the people’s gazes piercing through my bones, dissecting me in ways that should never happen.What has happened to me? Fuck! What is happening to me?Never have I suffered so many losses in a row. For the past few days, Haylee had been winning and kicking my ass, and I hated it! I thought everything would go my way after I tried to seduce Alpha King Xalen.I believed I had won, even though he didn’t fuck me hard like I thought.However, every decision I made after that made things worse. Every turn I took led to failure and humiliation.“That should never have happened. She was supposed to collapse before everyone. That damn bitch assu
HAYLEE~~Amidst the chaos that erupted in the hall after Xalen’s announcement, Allison’s explosion was the loudest.“That can’t be. She has bewitched the King!” she exclaimed. “I am to be the next queen. I am to be his mate because I carry his child in my womb.”Allison’s exclamation didn’t fail to get reactions from the pack members who had gathered in the hall for this meeting. Once again, she was a snake, and I believed she saw Xalen’s announcement coming and was fully prepared to oppose him publicly.From where I was standing, I could hear people murmuring, “She is pregnant?”“He can’t tarnish her honor like that, even though he is the king.”“He has to marry her and make her queen.”“But the other woman is his true mate. We need a true mate to become the Queen so we can have peace in the realm.” It was only a few murmurs that were in support of me, but I didn’t let that break me.In fact, I heard someone question, “How can we be sure she is his true mate? Wasn’t Queen Laura hi
HAYLEE~~One minute I was thinking about going to Gladys for help and more training that could help me reach my supposed mother, but the next minute, Xalen and Roy returned home, and we all began to prepare for the general pack meeting in the throne room.When I asked Xalen what the meeting was about, he answered before kissing me chastely, “You will see, Hay.”He also made me wear the prettiest dress that I owned before he left to get a few documents in his home office. I left his bedroom and joined Flavia and the kids downstairs, waiting for Roy and Xalen to join us.However, Allison showed up before both men, and she grumbled, “Prepare to be shoved right back to where you belong, slave.”While Flavia growled at her and stepped forward to show Allison that she wouldn’t hesitate to smack her, I ignored her completely because she was the least of my problems right now. Although I had been trying to explain the power Allison somehow possessed, I didn’t let her words get to me.“She i
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
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
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
