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.”

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   176. My Destined Mate

    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

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   177. The Next Queen

    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

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   178. Princess Allison’s POV (19)

    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

    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

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   180. Her True Self

    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

    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

    Princess Allison’s POV (21)~~Time froze days ago. I lost count of the days as I rolled in my bed repeatedly. Truly, time froze until I heard a sharp knock on my door for the first time in what? A million years? I wouldn’t know.But I knew what I heard. Someone knocked, yet I couldn’t leave my bed or part my lips to respond.I was so out of control and pathetic. It killed me to admit this, but it was the truth.“Your Majesty?” The familiar voice of no one else but Benita pierced through my head, sending pain through me as she banged on the door again.Did she say, "Your Majesty?" I was no majesty. Even the biggest of all fools would know that yet Benita didn’t.“I am coming in, Your Majesty,” she announced, and I heard her open my bedroom door like she owned the place. She continued, oblivious to the fact that her voice was causing me pain, “I brought you food and drink. I can help you freshen up—”“Get out.” I found the strength to blurt those two words to one of the people who ru

    Princess Allison’s POV ~~“It’s been five days, huh?” I asked Benita after emptying the glass of fresh juice that she gave to me.She nodded, “Yes, Princess Allison. How are you doing? Do you need me to get a healer to check on you?”“There will be no need for that,” I answered with a straight face.Benita helped me rest my back against the headboard of the bed, and she queried, “How about the baby? You didn’t eat or drink for five days and—”“My baby is fine and I am too, Benita.” I snapped, getting irritated because she was acting too nice. We both knew she wasn’t a great person for goddess’ sake. “I don’t need you to pretend to pity me or pity me at all. What I need to know is what has been happening out there for the past five days.”She nodded and began to narrate the events of the past five days. She told me about how Haylee has taken control of the pack, household, and the kitchen. She was now the new woman of the house, and she made good use of the power she held.“What happ

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   187. Under Attack

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~“This better be good.” Theo groaned within me.Although I didn’t growl, I was just as cranky as my wolf. I kept a straight face as I stepped into the throne hall, shifting my gaze from one deposed elder to the other.I was about to enjoy breakfast with my family when I got Evan’s message through the mind link. My beta informed me that my deposed elders had been clamoring to meet with me, and even though he had tried to hinder the inevitable meeting, they had all gathered before my throne.Frankly speaking, I didn’t expect the elders to come to me as a group. I believed they would rat one another out and sneak around just to be in my good books.“Clearly, they are gathered to fight back,” Theo informed me just as I sat on my throne, my eyes piercing through the souls of the old and supposed-to-be-wise wolves before me.They all fell to their knees as soon as I sat on the throne and chanted, “Long live the King.”“You may rise.” I breathed, sighting Wyatt and Evan

    HAYLEE~~“You can’t look at me like that, Nerina. You asked me to be honest with you,” Aradia breathed as if she hadn’t just dropped a bomb into my life.She concealed my power and what I knew was an exceptional beauty. I mean, look at her! If I was destined to look anything like her, then I had been robbed greatly.“Your powers and beauty are manifesting thanks to the bond between you and Alpha King Xalen and also the poison you were being fed by those closest to you, Nerina. You don’t have to worry, and I had to do that—”“You seriously had to make me ugly? Do you even know the kind of abuse I had to endure because of how I looked? I get picked out and picked on every day!” I wasn’t sure if anger was what I felt or if I was blown away by the fact that my mother was so powerful.“I suffered, Aradia, so you do not get to casually drop that like it didn’t cost me everything,” I gritted.Aradia nodded and said, “I know, and I am sorry, Nerina, but it would have been much worse if you

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   185. Half-Baked Truths

    HAYLEE~~“Good to see me, huh?” The goddess-like woman before me uttered, beaming as her bright green eyes scanned my body.“You don’t even want to know,” I retorted, resisting the urge to throw myself at her.Was it even possible to touch her? I mean, this realm felt real, but that didn’t change the fact that it wasn’t physical.“Are you excited to see me because you genuinely miss me, or is it because you have more questions, Nerina?” She asked me, her smile still very much wide.If I were to be honest, I would say I missed her and also had questions for her, but it didn’t make sense to miss someone whom I knew nothing about. So instead of giving her all the answers, I chose to give her half, like she seemed to have been doing with me.“I have questions, and I haven’t been able to reach you, even though you claim I am in control of these meetings,” I uttered, and I had to watch her bright smile disappear gradually. To ease the awkwardness that was bound to settle around us, I ask

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   184. Hello, Nerina

    HAYLEE~~Xalen’s advice helped me survive twenty-four hours without thinking about my failure to connect with my mother. In fact, I slept deeply all through the night, and as much as it still pained me that I couldn’t help my new family find clues, I didn’t let it bother me much.“I shouldn’t be there. I am ashamed of myself,” I heard Roy whisper as I moved down the stairs, ready to attend Uncle Clavin’s burial ceremony.Flavia’s voice hit my eardrums next as she tried to convince him, “You have nothing to be ashamed of, babe. It wasn’t your fault that your dad died, and hating him was logical after what you were made to believe, but not attending his burial, a final farewell, wouldn’t be logical.”“You are right,” Roy sighed to his mate.The heaviness in his chest could be heard in his voice, and once again, my heart tightened because even though I also wanted to help solve this mystery, I couldn’t. There was no way we could move forward without uncovering the mystery behind Uncle
