The Alpha King's Hated Mate 25. Mean Princess
HAYLEE~~The beginning of my second month in the palace as the Alpha King’s slave and nanny to his kids also marked the beginning of change. The change began the very day Princess Allison was moved into the palace, much to the Alpha King’s dismay. I had never seen him so defeated, angry, and full of hate.Do I pity him? Hell no!He had used his powers against me in the past and is still using them to keep me captive in a bond we both clearly didn’t want, and seeing him defeated kind of made me feel happy. I mean, the playing field has been leveled. “Be careful with that. I don’t want a scratch on it.” Princess Allison ordered the warriors that were moving her valuables into the palace. From the look of things and the number of properties that she came with, it seemed as if she was here to stay. Now that didn’t make me happy. That made my chest constrict.“He took her in as a prospective mate? They are practically engaged to marry in three months.” Liya snarled within me. Everyo

HAYLEE~~“What do you think you are doing?” Princess Allison’s icy voice stopped me dead in my tracks as I took Princess Sophia’s hand, hoping to take her away from the toxic scene. I summoned the courage needed to look into the mean Princess’s eyes and answered with a steady voice despite the lies I was about to tell, “Taking the Princess to her room, My Lady. It’s time for her nap–” Though I had grown accustomed to physical abuse, the sharp pain that sliced through me as Princess Allison’s soft palm struck my cheek was still jarring. Her hand may have been delicate, but the slap was anything but gentle.“I’m your Queen, not your Lady. I’m royalty, and you will treat and refer to me as you do the King. Do I make myself clear?” She shouted in my face. Princess Sophia whimpered and hid herself behind me, acting like a terrified child for the first time since I met her.I didn’t hesitate to nod. In cases like this, I have learned to just give Caesar whatever he—or, in this case, s

ALPHA KING XALEN~~“I hate you, and I’ll never forgive you for replacing Mom!”Sophia was everything but stupid, and I knew she could sense the changes in our home even though I had made sure no one informed her about the kind of relationship Allison and I were supposed to have.I made sure everyone in the pack kept their mouths shut to keep my children, especially Sophia, safe. Asher and Jodie were still too young to understand the change, but even though Sophia was very young as well, she was as smart as her mother and brave as her father.I didn’t miss the way Haylee ran after Sophia. “She has a good heart, and she cares about our kids despite how badly you have treated her,” Theo called me out, feeling just as weary as I had been feeling. I knew this day would come—the day Allison moved into my home, and despite how hard I tried to act indifferent, the current situation was affecting me–“Just tell them we already have a mate. This will save us from Alpha Richard's trap! We

HAYLEE~~Princess Sophia and I just sat there in the kids' garden within the palace’s compound, where they have swings, a trampoline, and other fun items. But rather than have fun, we simply sat there on one of the benches, staring at space for the longest time until Princess Sophia let out, her eyes glued to the floor, “She hit you because of me. Why did you try to get me away from here when you are just a slave?” Her curiosity was louder than her voice, and I had to search deep within me for the right words so I wouldn’t hurt her any more than Princess Allison had. I sighed, “I saw you struggling and I knew what that feeling–”“I wasn’t struggling!” She snapped, her eyes flying to my face, as she tried to act strong. I smiled slowly, looking at the young Princess’s eyes, which told more than she was expressing. “You know it’s okay to struggle every now and then, Princess Sophia. Even adults struggle, and we shouldn’t bottle up our feelings.” She responded defensively but with

HAYLEE~~Tears welled up in my eyes as I exclaimed, "Leo.” Without hesitation, I threw myself into his arms, not minding the small fact that this corner was way too small to maneuver freely, but it was perfect for a long hug. I could hold him forever. Leo inhaled deeply as his hands wrapped around me, holding me tightly as he muttered, “Haylee…” His voice did the trick of assuring me that truly, this man was Leo and that he wasn’t mad at me. Also, I could hear how much he missed me just by listening to him say my name, and that broke the dam.I sobbed into his shirt, rubbing my face in his chest like I always do, and just like always, he allowed me and hushed me gently. “Hey, it’s okay, Haylee,” Leo murmured, patting my back as he carefully placed his chin over my head. I spluttered, “No, it’s not okay. I thought you were dead, Leo. I thought I would never see you again.” I pulled back a bit just to look at his face. Leo smiled at me, wiping my tears, but his effort was fruitl

HAYLEE~~I was still shaken up when Princess Sophia and I returned to the palace. The young Princess didn’t leave my hand, dragging me along with her as she looked around the living room nervously.“Phew! I don’t want to run into her.” Princess Sophia whispered, obviously talking about her latest rival. The little girl told me to tiptoe around the passageway so no one would hear us, and I didn’t utter a word even after she walked past her dad’s office, where he usually spends most of the hours of the day.“What are we going to do about this?” Liya asked me. I didn’t have to be told that she was talking about Leo’s case—I mean, Jose’s case. Would I ever get used to not calling him Leo? “Honestly, I don’t know, Liya.” Liya asked, “Would you go with him? If he tells you it’s time to go, would you?”Now that was a question I didn't have an answer to. “Again, I don’t know, Liya. I can’t even think right now, and even if I want to leave, I don’t think I can with what Alpha King Xalen

ALPHA KING XALEN~~I slept peacefully with my kids snuggled around me that night. Despite being cramped in Asher’s bed, it was the best night since I came home and found out that my mate had gone to the land of no return.It was the first night that I actually slept through the night and enjoyed every bit of it. Although I had to wake up a few times to feed Jodie, it remained a great night. Asher and Sophia slept on my sides, and Jodie spent the night on my chest, enjoying her dad’s proximity for the first time since she was born. Perhaps I would still be in bed if Asher didn’t wake up three hours before noon with a grumbling stomach.“My stomach is hungry, Daddy,” Asher said as soon as he saw my eyelids parting. That was his way of announcing his hunger, and it never ceased to make me laugh. My daughter woke Sophia up, and I felt a great bundle of joy sinking into me as I recalled how my daughter apologized to me last night. I didn’t see the apology coming because I didn’t dese

HAYLEE~~I swear the earth shook underneath my feet, and I felt the kitchen threatening to crumble as Alpha King Xalen’s anger boomed through the atmosphere. His voice hit my eardrums hard enough to threaten to tear them. “Are you insane!” Those three words sounded nothing like a question, and I saw how Prince Asher’s face fell when he was also hit by the wave of his dad’s anger. Even Princess Jodie's body jerked in my arms, but I quickly began to rock the little princess and also assure the Prince that everything was fine. Thankfully, Benita came into the kitchen at that moment, and being closer to Asher than I was, she took over his care and whispered to me, “The palace will only get hotter.” “What do you mean?” I asked, brows furrowed. “I heard that Princess Allison spent the whole night moving Quuen Laura’s belongings to one of the guest rooms and she moved hers into the room the Alpha King and Queen Laura used to share. “ Benita said to me, whispering so Prince Asher woul

The Alpha King's Hated Mate 134. Princess Allison’s POV (12)
Princess Allison’s POV~~“Look who finally decided to answer his phone,” I breathed to calm myself.I have learned to always keep my cool whenever I have to talk with my dad. He should never perceive me as weak.“Drop the sassy attitude and explain to me how he is already on his feet, Allison,” my dad barked, his voice resonating in my ears in a way that caused my head to ache.I rolled my eyes to remind myself that I had to stay and sound confident no matter what. “How about you tell me if you tried to have him killed?”Because I have been caught in a bubble where humiliation and regret coexisted with me, I haven’t had the time to find out what really happened yesterday, but fortunately, my dad seemed to have all the sources he needed to hear the news despite the distance between both packs.“It’s all part of the plan, child. Although I was hoping he would die and this stupid charade would come to an end. It would have been a perfect opportunity for one of your brothers to take th
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 133. Princess Allison's POV (11)
Princess Allison’s POV~~Apparently, news about how Alpha Prince Roy and Alpha King Xalen were saved by the ugly-ass slave has been spreading through the palace since yesterday. I didn’t find out about it until now since I have been in my room since I was humiliated yesterday by the so-called warrior healer.It wasn’t until Benita showed up in my room, claiming she had news for me about Haylee, that I learned about this.“And you are just telling me?” I seethed at Benita. “Why wait till now to tell me about it?”Benita trembled before me, stuttering as she said, “I didn’t hear about this until last night, Your Majesty, and when I tried to bring the news to you, I was told by your personal guard that you didn’t want to be disturbed.”Well, I did tell Jose to stand guard and make sure no one stepped close to my bedroom because I was hoping my dad would return the million calls he refused to answer.After Alpha King Xalen gave his healer and slave the right to humiliate me yesterday,
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 132. The Seed of Love
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“What are we missing?”Although Theo had raised that question in my mind before Elder Calvin pulled the trigger, Haylee shed more light on it and made me realize that I still had more digging to do.But first, I had to find Calvin.Wyatt, Evan, and the rest of my army had been searching for him since he bolted yesterday, but somehow, they hadn't found him. None of them had caught a whiff of him, and since I was too distracted to go find him myself, I had to settle for the pieces of information that Wyatt sent to me through the mind link occasionally.Taking care of the kids and Haylee while she was out had been my priority. I didn't want to leave Haylee's side, even though I had to.“We have to, Xalen. The sooner we find Calvin, the earlier we will get answers and put an end to this charade,” Theo said to me, despite my desire to remain in Haylee’s bed.“I know. I will just stay till daybreak,” I responded to my wolf, looking down at Haylee, who was also lost in t
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 131. Soft Love
HAYLEE~~I woke up to Alpha King Xalen’s arms around me.Although I didn’t know how long I had slept, I could perceive that I had been in Xalen’s arms for a long time because his scent was everywhere. I reeked of him. My sheets reeked of him. My room was drowning in his scent, and as I took in my first conscious breath, I drowned as well, loving every bit of his captivating aroma—a blend of primal musk and warm cedar, a heady mix of wild strength and soft spice that enveloped me in a comforting embrace, making me feel both safe and exhilarated."You’re finally back from dreamland," Xalen murmured into my ear, his stubbled beard brushing softly against my cheek.I smiled and wondered if he knew just how much I enjoyed his softness. I had found myself yearning to experience soft love, and even though Xalen and I had a rocky start, we were heading toward that kind of love.“How long was I out?” I asked, my voice barely a whisper.Xalen didn’t hesitate as he muttered, kissing my cheek a
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 130. Alpha Prince Roy (8)
Alpha Prince Roy ~~She was a dark beauty.Her dark hair fell past her waist, complementing her beautiful face. Her dark eyes pierced into my soul, threatening to make me vulnerable even though my instincts were kicking against it. And her skin tone?Goddess, she was perfect.And while I wasn’t trying to compare her with Laura, she was the opposite of her.Laura was beautiful in a harsh way. Her beauty could be seen from afar. However, this gorgeous dark beauty who was staring at me and waiting for me to break the ice of silence between us was the kind of beauty that one would only notice in proximity.It wasn’t loud.Instead, it was compelling and commanding.She was a dark beauty, and she was mine.“I still need to read your memories and get accustomed to the fact that a lot has happened while I was gone, but yes, I agree with you. She is ours,” Jax chimed happily within me, throwing all caution to the wind and eager to make his move on Flavia.But as much as the natural order wa
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 129. With One Touch
ALPHA KING XALEN~~I have never been electrocuted, but what I felt in that moment could count as electrocution.I felt it as soon as Haylee’s hands settled on my arm. I knew it was her touching me even though I was fast asleep and heavily drugged by the silver toxins. It was only her touch that could make my heart skip two beats even while asleep.It was only Haylee who could wake me up with one touch.Before the electrifying sensation consumed me, my eyes fluttered open, and Haylee was the first person I saw. Her eyes were closed, and her forehead was knitted tightly, telling me that she was trying to focus despite the beads of sweat that were starting to gather on her face.“What's she doing!” I exclaimed just as the sensation began to spread through me.To the rest of the healers, my exclamation might have meant a lack of trust and maybe irritation. However, it was worrying. I was worried because I saw what happened after Haylee touched Roy.I saw what happened to her, and I didn

HAYLEE~~“Arch what?”I blurted, confusion latching onto my mind like a parasite.Despite the confusion, I could tell that Flavia’s attention wasn’t on me. It was on her newfound mate, who wouldn’t take his eyes off her either. I couldn’t blame either of them. They had just found each other, yet they hadn’t had a moment to themselves.The chaos around us was overwhelming, but it only intensified when Sophia, who had been standing somewhere in the distance between Xalen and me, exclaimed, “Daddy!”My shallow breath hitched, and my mind went blank as if I wasn’t ready to bombard Flavia with questions just a second ago. My eyes cut to Sophia, who ran back to Xalen’s bed, crying, “Open your eyes, Daddy. Why won’t he open his eyes?”The Healer standing with Xalen gave Sophia a reassuring smile and said, “It’s okay, Princess Sophia. The King is simply sleeping. He needs proper rest to heal—”Oh, the silver toxins were still in his system.I couldn’t help but look back at Flavia after not
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 127. His Dead Heart
ALPHA KING XALEN~~Why the hell is no one telling me anything?Why won’t anyone tell me why the pain I was feeling suddenly intensified as the mate bond between Haylee and me froze completely, almost stealing my breath? Why wouldn’t anyone tell me why it suddenly felt like I was losing my life, even though my heart seemed to be beating fine?Not even one of the healers seemed to be paying attention to me.I would have said it was a relief when Sophia, who had been beside my body, told me something if she hadn’t burst into tears as she spoke to me: “Haylee collapsed, Daddy, and Uncle Roy is awake, but Haylee won’t wake up.”The news my daughter broke to me only confirmed what I was feeling, and despite the pain pinning me to the bed, I pushed myself into a sitting position, unable to console my daughter because I was fighting to see what the hell was happening.I mean, why would Haylee collapse?Why would her heart stop beating all of a sudden—Just as suddenly, I felt warmth rushing
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 126. Alpha Prince Roy’s POV (7)
Alpha Prince Roy’s POV~~One minute, I was walking toward the bright, captivating light that seemed like the relief I needed after all I had been put through by my loved ones.My supposed loved ones.One minute I was chasing that relief because even though my body felt numb, my mind remained active, replaying my father's words of disappointment over and over again. My mind wouldn't let go of the part my supposed destined mate played in all of this. Neither did it stop blaming Xalen as well, even though he wasn't to be blamed.My mind was messed up, so I believed chasing that bright light was the only way to get rest and peace. I believed catching up with the light would wipe my mind and make me a new person.One minute I was a floating man full of hope, but the next minute, I was yanked back to what I immediately knew was life because air rushed into my lungs as my eyes flew open. My heart thudded loudly within my chest despite the almost unnoticeable ache, and I gasped, trapped bet
