ALPHA KING XALEN

~<>~

“What did you just do!” Theo exclaimed, groaning right after as raw pain consumed us both even though the slave had stopped talking.

My body trembled as shock shook my core, making me wonder. I mean, how on earth did this happen? How is that possible?

While I tried to fathom what just happened with the slave, Theo yelled at me again, “What did you just do, Xalen?”

“I knocked her the fuck out. That’s what!” I groaned, my entire body aching with no explainable source of pain.

“Why would you do that? You were this close to killing her.” My wolf lashed out at me, snarling within my mind.

“I wasn’t even trying to kill her and why are you blaming me when I just saved us from feeling any more pain!” I growled right back, looking down at the slave’s unconscious body.

A few seconds again, she had fallen into my arms but I was quick to drop her as her skin burned mine like a hot rock.

“Knocking her out doesn’t help. We can still feel the pain and as soon as she wakes up

    HAYLEE~~“I’m pregnant with your child, Alpha Jett.” The world as I knew it froze at that moment. My eyes widened and my breaths became shallow as shock and undefinable emotions coursed through my body, replacing the initial excitement and hope that I was feeling.This can’t be h-hapening… This should never happen. Those words shouldn’t be coming out of my sister’s mouth… her eyes shouldn’t be glinting like that for goddess’s sake!She was my twin sister and–“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Alpha Jett’s voice cut through the thick layer of my thoughts.If I weren’t looking at his face, I would think he was mad about my twin sister’s announcement but the twinkle in his eyes. He was happy. My twin sister just announced that she was carrying his child before everyone in the pack during a party meant to celebrate my nineteenth birthday… A party I believed would be used to crown me Luna of Cresent Moon Pack because a year ago, on my eighteenth birthday, I discovered that Alpha Jett wa

    HAYLEE~~I was ripped off Kaylee by the familiar coarse hands that had shown me to the door of hell many times in the past– my father’s hands. For the first time, I cried to the father in the beast he had willingly shown me. I stupidly thought he would take my side for the first time. A girl could wish, right? So I cried, “Dad, you can’t let her do this. You can’t just stand there and watch Kaylee snatch my mate–” But my statement was interrupted when his palm settled over my cheek like thunder. He slapped me and I tasted blood in my mouth as my father yelled in my wet face, “How dare you attack your sister! How dare you lay your hands on her? The Alpha has chosen a mate and it’s not you even though the moon goddess thought someone as plain as you could be Cresent Moon Pack’s Luna. That was a mistake on her path and we have corrected her mistake.” No, the only mistake here was having him as a father. The only mistake was picking to look like my heartless mother who left me alon

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~I don't know.I don't know how to exist in a world where my mate doesn't. A world without my Laura. I have spent the last five days beside her motionless body and even in that state she managed to look beautiful. She managed to capture my heart like we were teenagers again. How I wished she would open her eyes and tell me, “It’s a joke, Xalen. How can I die and leave you and the kids?” But today, I had to put her to rest. I had to bury her according to tradition so she could find peace in the afterlife. My heart was heavier than my bulky body and breathing felt like a crime because Laura wasn’t breathing. She was six feet under the ground we used to walk as the King and Queen of the werewolf realm–“Come forward and present your gifts.” My trusted Beta, Evan, voiced, calling on the visiting Alphas and leaders of the numerous packs under my jurisdiction.The funeral has ended as far as I was concerned. I had buried Luara and I don’t understand why these peopl

    HAYLEE~~Fuck me!What the fuck was I thinking? No. I didn’t think when I heard that little child crying.My stupid brain just reacted to her and as I have always done with kids, I reached for her and offered comfort because no one offered that to me when I was growing up with an abusive father and a mean sister.And now that I was standing before the Alpha King, my heart was about to beat its way out of my chest. My body shook with fear as cold shivers traveled down my spine. There was something about his dark eyes that–“Don’t make me repeat myself?” His voice was cold, laced with anger that no one deserves, not even a criminal.I took my eyes off him, fighting the uneasiness my wolf was feeding my mind with. I said slowly, “I’m Haylee from–’ “Silence!” He snapped at me, causing me to jump away from him. If my mind wasn't shaky at the moment, I would have wondered why he asked me a question only to shut me up when I gathered enough courage to respond. However, I could only thi

    HAYLEE~~“How dare you!” the hostile voice pierced my eardrums before an icy feeling cut through my skin, sending shivers down my spine. My eyes flew open and I jolted to my feet even though my brain wasn’t fully awake. I wobbled, my body shivering as I felt another icy feeling. I was drenched. I was soaked. Yet, I couldn’t scream as my eyes met with Owen’s angry ones. “How dare you fall asleep, Slave?” Owen, the head of servants in the Royal Pack, snarled at me.He was holding two black buckets whose content he just poured all over me. My hair and the dark brown dress I was given three days ago were dripping. The chilly air of the night wasn’t helping my case– everything was against me.“I d-doze—” I tried to speak but my teeth chattered and I instinctively wrapped my arms around my body, “You dozed?” Owen hissed. Ever since the Alpha King stopped me from leaving the hall three days ago, my life has changed drastically. One would think the Alpha King who didn’t hide his hatred

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~“Really?” I barked.Anger built up within me as the hope I was holding on to seemed to be fading every second. I had so many people around me yet I felt so alone. I once had a plan for my life and future but now? Now I was lost with no hope of finding my way. Perhaps if Laura comes back to life. She was my compass– My moral and geographical compass. “We have searched and did everything we can, My King but there’s no evidence that the Queen was murdered.” My Royal Gamma, Wyatt, repeated as he fell on his knees before my throne. “Then have the trackers tear everything down,” I growled, barely keeping my ass on my throne.Wyatt was too scared to open his mouth so Evan stepped in and said to me, “The trackers did everything, My King. The Healers also testified that they found nothing toxic in her body. It’s a natural death–” “Don’t even tell me that!” I cut my Royal Beta off. “How can that be a natural death? She gave birth to Jodie without complications and two

    HAYLEE~~I was drained of every bit of energy. Yet I was still standing in the kitchen where I had been since I woke up in the wee hours of this morning. I barely slept for three hours before I got up to prep for the warriors’ breakfast. It’s like preparing a meal for every member of the Crescent Moon Pack. After preparing breakfast with little to no help from the servants who used to do these chores before I was brought into the pack as a slave, I started preparing lunch for the chiefs’ of the pack because they would be having a meeting in a few hours and Owen had started talking about all I had to do for the Royal Family dinner. My sight was foggy, my throat was dry and the worms in my stomach were biting me, crying to be fed. However, despite having different dishes around me, I wasn’t allowed to eat any. Owen would kill me.“Just serve yourself a plate, Haylee. We need the strength. We need to sleep.” Liya cried into my mind. The last time I shifted and let Liya have a meal

    HAYLEE~~I didn’t know which one I paid more attention to with every second that passed without a word from the Alpha King– Owen’s shaky frame of the lips that kept parting only to close again like their owner couldn’t make up his mind. “I was ju-just correcting the Slave, My King. She was dis-disrespectful and stole–” If I was going to die, I would rather die a criminal who touched the King’s child and had the audacity to appear before him as his second chance’s mate at his beloved Queen’s funeral, than be called a thief for eating one spoon of rice. With that thought in mind, I cut Owen off, sounding more confident for some weird reason and despite the Alpha King’s presence, “I didn’t steal. I haven’t eaten in three days, My King and I know I’m a slave but I need food just like everyone else. I need food and sleep to function and I haven’t been having enough. If you wnat me dead, chop off my head or throw me to the rogues but please do not treat me like I’m lesser than–” “Shu

    HAYLEE~~It all happened so fast. One minute, I sighed, realizing that it was a bad idea to wait in the living room for him after putting the kids to bed. I should have been sleeping but I waited because I couldn't continue to live as I had lived for the past month. I mean, I had gotten used to holding Jodie’s weight, hearing her cries, and also taking care of the two other royal babies that had been trapped in a world without their mother. However, I haven't gotten used to the unexplainable pain on the inside of me. The pain has been growing ever since we left the late Queen's burial chamber that night. It was almost as if that night marked the birth of some kind of magnetic force between the Alpha King and me and each time he pulled away, tugging at the force, I got to feel the pain tearing me from within…. I didn't want to live like that anymore. It was too painful and even Liya was losing it gradually. I could lose my wolf and myself all because of the cursed bond between

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   15. Between Our Bodies

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~A new lunar month without my Laura. I couldn't even hold her cold body anymore as she was buried last month and I have been living under the same roof with the girl the moon goddess sickly assumed would replace my Luara.I was staring at the moon and somehow, it was mocking me. “We usually do this with Laura,” Theo whispered into my mind, causing my heart to clench painfully. Would I ever get over her? I hope not. I hope I never forget how much I loved her and still love her. I hope she remains a part of my life for as long as I live.“She would have tried to count the stars a million times since we got here,” Theo mentioned another core memory. I smiled despite the ache in my heart. “And she would have called Sophia and Asher to join us. I would be rubbing her belly and speaking to Jodie…” I mentioned, describing the beautiful past without missing a single detail. Nothing about the present was beautiful. After Sophia ran out of the burial chamber last mont

    HAYLEE~~I still haven’t gotten over the shock of hearing Alpha King Xalen tell Princess Sophia that she would be apologizing to me. I mean, I thought he would cut out my tongue as soon as he caught me reprimanding his daughter.But Instead of that, he asked her to apologize and just as I began to think about his parenting skills, I heard the sassy Princess say to the so-called Cruel Alpha King– a man who was feared far and wide, “I would do no such thing.”My gasp was swallowed by the louder ones from outside the burial chambers. The chambers were built in a way that everyone could see the inside of the chambers even if they were outside and the space was big enough for twenty people to stay by the late Queen’s side. Even in her death, she was loved. As harmless as that seemed, it made my heart hurt but I quickly pushed myself to focus on the scene before me… between the Alpha King and his daughter. Princess Sophia has his eyes but aside from that she looked like her late mom.

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~My heart was racing. My soul was threatening to abandon my body. I lost track of time as I walked along with Evan, searching for all three of my kids. I was ready to blame the slave when I found out Jodie wasn’t in the Palace but when I heard her mention Sophia’s name, I knew my daughter was back to be a sweet indispensable pain in my ass. Sophia was a menace. No one would call her this but yes, she is a crazy five years old and Laura was the only person she ever listened to. But now, Laura was gone and she wouldn’t listen to anyone else which was why I had to send her to the Healers even before the funeral because I knew she would have thrown tantrums all through the funeral and create a scene that wouldn’t be good for her reputation–“Somehow, it sounds like you are describing yourself,” Theo muttered despite how weary we both were. “You were a menace and a crazy bastard before Laura came into our lives and now that she is gone, you are back to the old day

    HAYLEE~~“I swear to the goddess she was right here.” I had screamed three hours ago, my body trembling as he stared down at me with anger and perhaps worry in his eyes. Clearly, he wasn’t concerned about the way my heart was rising and falling rapidly, not when he was about to growl at me. But before he could, I added, “Princess Sophia showed up. She was furious. She sent me out of the room and I thought it was best to sit here while I waited for her to–” “But you fell asleep!” He shut me up, punching the nearest wall in a way that made me jump backward. “You fell asleep when you were supposed to be watching my kids.”“I didn’t mean to. I swear to the goddess–” I whimpered. “Enough swearing to the goddess, dammit!” He hissed maliciously, showing nothing but hate and disrespect to the goddess. That happened three hours ago and while I was shaken by fear and also been praying that the Princesses would return home, they haven’t and we have all been searching and by searching, I m

    HAYLEE~~“You do not belong here….” The voice I heard was soft and young, and it was supposed to be innocent and friendly, but it was everything but that. It was harsh and as I opened my eyes to see the small frame boiling with obvious anger before me, My brows furrowed. I could only stare at the little girl before me as I pushed myself off the nursery floor. I must have dozed off while putting Princess Jodie to bed. I thought working with Owen was hard but having a baby who won’t let me drop her for even a minute was harder. The good part was, I wasn’t getting slapped or starved. Aside from Princess Jodie, no one was yelling at me until now. “That’s my mom’s spot. Get up and get out of my sister’s room.” The young girl literally hissed at me. Her mom’s spot? Her sister? “Princess Sophia?” I breathed, Rather than respond, she seethed just like I had seen Alpha King Xalen do, “I told you to leave my mom’s spot and get out of my sister’s room.” I was standing in a cozy corner

    HAYLEE ~~ I understood that he hated me for reasons best known to him. But to be honest, I was a victim too. I have been all my life and the way he seemed to enjoy hurting me even though I was helping his kid was making it hard for me to breathe. My chest hurt. But my head was aching more due to the forced connection he– “You don’t speak much, do you?” The young woman Alpha Xalen handed me over to, asked, her eyes on me as if she was studying me. I have learned to be careful around Servants in this Pack since they all considered me beneath them. If my head wasn’t aching, I still wouldn’t speak to the nanny to avoid getting punched– “He wasn’t always like this.” I didn’t ask her but she supplied that detail anyway. “Well, he was hostile when he was younger but became very warm when he met the Queen. Losing her sent him back to his dark days.” I get it. He was suffering. But I have been suffering all my life and he doesn’t see me being a pain in the ass. “His parents–”

    ALPHA KING XALEN ~~ I hated her. The way she constantly looked at me from under her long lashes. The way she inhaled. The way she exhaled. The way she walked. The way she looked in the servants’ uniform. The way her chest rose and fell as she tried not to let her eyes wander. I hated everything about her. The bright color of her hair. Her dull green eyes had only brightened when she stared at Jodie. The small curve of her lips as she smiled down at my daughter who had stopped crying like she was in some sort of magic land and not the arms of a slave… Fucj, I hated everything. Yet, I had to bring her into my home. After all, I couldn’t just drop Jodie with her and let her take care of my daughter in the Servants’s quarters where she had obviously been suffering– “You should have let me break every bone in his body.” Theo snarled in my mind, holding a kind of anger that was new to me. He was angry because the slave was touched by another man… because she was maltreated b
