Princess Allison’s POV~~Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!What have I done? What the fuck have I done?How did I get so lost in the moment to the point where I didn’t perceive Alpha King Xalen before he entered my room? I could have sensed him. I could have avoided this. I could have avoided this damn development. “Dad will kill you,” Nala breathed into my mind with no ounce of remorse as soon as I entered my bedroom and kicked the Royal Guard out.Perhaps I wouldn’t be shaking with anger if I had slept with this particular guard before Alpha King Xalen walked in. Maybe I wouldn’t feel like I had been cheated by fate if it had given me more time to ride the guard, despite his average-sized cock, and satisfy this flame burning in the pit of my stomach. Just maybe—“Can you even hear yourself? You can’t still be thinking about sex after you messed up,” Nala yelled at me. Clearly, the clouds of desire that were once cast over my wolf’s senses had been blown away by the mere fact that Alpha King X

ALPHA KING XALEN~~Uncle Calvin knocked on the door of my home office within the same hour, announcing his presence even though I could perceive his scent through the wooden door.“You can come in,” I breathed after keeping my excitement under control.My uncle stepped into my office, his face as blank as always, but from the small curve of his lips, I could tell he was really happy. My brows furrowed as I said, “Let it out. What has the famous Royal Advisor grinning?”“I’m not grinning, My King.” Uncle Calvin raised his brows, trying to adjust his face.“Didn’t you say you have news to share with me?” I asked, genuinely interested to know what could have happened to my special advisor. I mean, the last time I saw him laugh was before his brother, my late dad, died.Uncle Calvin chimed in, “I believe your news is more important, My King. Please go first.”“All right.” I nodded curtly, asking him to sit with me before I announced, “We can finally get rid of Alpha Richard and his dau

ALPHA KING XALEN~~“If you didn’t call for an urgent meeting, then who did?” Uncle Calvin’s shock was evident in his wide eyes and open mouth.“Clearly, Allison did.” I breathed out, a smile creeping across my face. “She is indeed quite smart, which is precisely why we can’t let her have her way, Uncle Calvin.”Using my uncle’s title, which conveyed our close biological ties, only happened once in a blue moon, but after the kind of tense conversation we just had, it felt like a rare blue moon had risen in our midst. “I now know what is truly at risk, thanks to you, but if we do nothing right now, we are allowing Alpha Richard and Allison to assume they are the ones pulling the strings. We have to turn the tables against them.”Uncle Calvin sighed heavily, shaking his head. “I don’t see how that is going to happen, My King.”What? Did I hear him right?“Is he really saying he can’t support our fight against Allison and her family?” Even Theo was stunned by my uncle’s unexpected resp

Princess Allison’s POV ~~“Perfect.”My wolf chimed in my head as soon as Alpha King Xalen stepped forward in the court of elders, where he was still the king but also held accountable.I had to resist the urge to smirk or chuckle out loud as he called me a liar and claimed he could prove it. What a fool he was! A hotheaded king, but his mind was small, and I could see him becoming my puppet in the next forty-nine days. I saw that clearly now. It seemed impossible before, but I had come to realize that he was no match for me.“Are you claiming that this royal guard didn’t assault the princess in the worst ways possible?” Elder Vernon, the second most powerful elder in the court and also the man I knew I had access to whenever I wanted because he and my dad were friends, uttered, asking Alpha King Xalen the question that would push him deeper into my trap.These elders, all twenty-something of them, must really enjoy having Alpha King Xalen in this court because it was the only plac

ALPHA KING XALEN~~I have heard that acting was becoming popular among the younger generation, but today, in the court, was the first time I saw what acting really was. It was one thing to pretend and another to act.And I must say, Allison’s acting was a ten out of ten.Was I stunned? Hell, yes.But did I let her see that? Well, I tried to hide it until she played her last stunt, forcing my jaw to drop as it fell.Allison looked me in the eye and whimpered, “I’m begging you to protect my image, Alpha King Xalen. It will be all I have left after I return home to my pack, failing to become the queen they believed I could be.”She was playing the pity card so well. To those who didn’t see the way she was ready to take the guard’s manhood in her lying mouth, she appeared innocent and miserable. She made it look like she had been betrayed by me, even though I had nothing to do with what she did with the guard.Who knows? She might have been sleeping with other guards before I caught he

HAYLEE~~From the rumors flying around, Alpha King Xalen had a long day—long enough to take his mind off punishing the servants for throwing a party. Or so I have heard. However, I believed I had a longer day because I had been juggling through my fuzzy mind, trying to remember what went down last night, especially between the Alpha King and me.Thinking and having to take care of the kids all by myself didn’t go well together, as the kids needed my full attention.I had been with the kids all day, and now Alpha King Xalen was standing in the living room where I had been with the kids and some man Princess Sophia had introduced as her uncle. I also saw the striking resemblance between the Royal Advisor and the unfamiliar man, but I still couldn’t leave the kids alone with him.This is why Alpha King Xalen walked in and found me in the living room.“There’s tension,” Liya muttered into my mind after Alpha King Xalen and Roy entered. “Definitely bad blood between the cousins.”Oh, I

HAYLEE~~“Haylee, we need to talk. Meet me in the garden at dusk. It’s urgent and important. — Jose”My heart raced as I folded the note neatly, my eyes scanning the handwriting I was familiar with hastily.Surely the note was from Jose. He didn’t have to write his name on the note for me to know. A couple of emotions swirled within me: anxiety, fear, and maybe a bit of hope. I had been trying to get hold of Jose all day, but all my attempts were fruitless as he had been in court with Princess Allison.Why did he want to meet in the garden? Why couldn’t he wait by my bedroom door for me or find me somewhere in the palace? What’s with this secret meeting? I honestly hoped he wasn’t about to tell me about his feelings again.“I suspected something was bothering him this morning when he walked past us without uttering a word,” Liya said in my mind. “Whatever he has to say, it’s our chance to ask him about last night. We have to seize it.”Liya was right, yet my heart kept racing as I

ALPHA KING XALEN~~In spite of how the previous day drained me, I woke up in a better mood this morning. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I slept with my kids around me and in the bedroom where Laura and I created them.I couldn’t help but smile as I thought about those days.This was the first time I would be smiling genuinely at the thought of Laura, and also last night was the first I would spend in my matrimonial bedroom after Laura’s demise.I believed that was my way of trying to connect with her before I began the fight against Allison—a fight that would save my kids and the realm and probably secure a future with Haylee.“So, goodbye to Laura?” Theo asked me, even though he knew the effect those words would have on me.“She will always be a part of my life, Theo.” I wasn’t saying goodbye. I just couldn't.“If you aren’t saying goodbye, how will you take Haylee? What space will she hold in your life? Will she have to compete with the ghost of Laura?” Theo as

ALPHA KING XALEN~~I didn’t have to be told that whatever she saw in her dream was bad and devastating. She was shaken up so badly, and as much as I understood that she had just woken up from a nightmare that somehow involved Laura and me, I wondered what could have riled her up to this extent.Her experience with Alpha Jett or with me? Could it be because of the betrayal she had suffered many times at the hands of her loved ones?Could that also be why she shook her head and voiced without thinking twice, “No.”My brows furrowed, and my hand frozen between us both. “What do you mean by no?”“I can’t go to bed with you, Alpha King Xalen. I’m not ready for that. I’m not even sure I want to accept the bond, so why should I let you take me to bed?” She ranted, getting all those words out in one breath.At first, I didn’t understand what she was saying, but when the meaning of her words and her reason for rejecting me dawned on me, I laughed. It started as a low rumble in my belly. The

HAYLEE~~“Please don’t kill me.” I whimpered again before reaching deep within me to find Liya and saying to her, “Wake me up, Liya, please.”Before Liya could respond, I caught Alpha King Xalen stepping closer to me from my peripheral. Instinctively, I crouched, holding my bent knees to my chest and hiding my face like a scared puny.“Why would I do that, Haylee?” Alpha King Xalen asked, his voice soft and kind, which was the opposite of what I heard when he said he should have killed me the minute he met me.I stuttered, my body shaking as if the temperature of the room were at its lowest, but heck, beads of sweat streamed down my body as well. “Because your mate said so. Your Queen and you would do anything she said.”My mind made things worse as it took me back to the past when my dad used to corner me like this and do whatever he deemed appropriate for me. My mind took me back to the days I used to live in the dark basement of my dad’s house.“This is not a dream, Hay. C’mon,

HAYLEE~~“I’m glad you gave me a chance. You gave us a chance, Haylee.” Alpha King Xalen’s rich voice echoed, hitting my eardrums and sending sweet vibrations through my body. His smile was even brighter than the day. "I promise you, Haylee. I won't let you down.”This was happening?I was giving him a chance.Heck! I would give him a chance because I could tell my life was about to take a new turn.Of course, I still couldn’t believe that the cruel Alpha King was mine. Not just my destined mate but a destined mate who had accepted our bond and vowed to never hurt me. At least not again.So why wouldn’t I smile when he took my hands and stared deep into my eyes? Why wouldn’t my heart flutter with joy and the kind of warmth I had never felt before? That has to be love, right?Was this what love felt like?“Yes, Haylee. This is love. This is our love story, and we have begun the sweet journey of love against all odds.”Alpha King Xalen replied, making it known that he was in my head
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 62. To Move On
HAYLEE~~“Yes, Alpha King Xalen,” I muttered sadly, but his face lit up, which made me realize that my response wasn’t clear enough. So I added to clear up the misunderstanding, “Yes, I’m saying no to trying.”That was so hard to say, but looking into his eyes as the twinkle they once reflected vanished without a trace was so much harder.However, I couldn’t put myself in danger for a man who wasn’t sure about me.“What are you saying? He is asking you to try, Haylee. He is certain he wants this.” Liya chimed with disbelief, mostly because she knew how badly I wanted this.My wolf knew I had waited all my life to be loved by someone who was meant for me. By my mom. My dad. My sister. I longed to be loved by someone who I could call mine, and the one person who seemed to love me, I couldn’t reciprocate.I have waited all my life for this moment, but just like always, life has a funny way of putting me in a tight spot. Why give me a man I can call mine when he is tied to two other wo
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 61. A New Twist
ALPHA KING XALEN~~“Busted.” Theo mocked me as my body froze before the woman, whose presence suddenly felt like a magnetic force.One minute, I was ready to move her body away from the door or something, just to get to Allison and pour my anger on her, throwing everything I had planned since yesterday out the window, and the next minute, I felt Haylee’s body drawing me in.The energy was so compelling, and I could feel myself claiming her lips for the second time in what? Three days?And bam! Haylee gasped, “It was you who kissed me, not me.”Those words were a wake-up call from the slumber her scent and energy had dragged me into. I blinked rapidly, taking steps backward, not because I was scared of Haylee but because I was afraid of the fact that she would remember our first kiss as—“You kissed me, right?” Haylee asked this time as if she couldn’t believe I would do such a thing, and honestly, I wouldn't believe it either. “I didn’t initiate it; you did.”The longest minute pas
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 60. In The Pit
HAYLEE~~I finally saw it.The affection Jose was talking about, I finally saw it as Alpha King Xalen switched into what I would like to call killer mode. Storming after Princess Allison, who I knew would be back in the palace by now because she left the execution ground before I could get my feet to move, shock and pity perplexed my entire body.I finally felt it.I felt his concern for me, and goddess did it not feel like he hated me at that minute.However, because of what I assumed were Princess Allison’s fingerprints, the moment I didn't know I had been waiting to experience since I perceived this man was destined to be mine was cut short and replaced by anger.As I ran after him, Liya bubbled with joy for some reason, but I was so damn worried as I could see how badly this would end.“This is good, Hay. A man is fighting for us. The most powerful of them all, in fact,” Liya said to me, enjoying the moment more than she should.“This is bad. If he fights for me, Princess Allis
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 59. Execution Ground
ALPHA KING XALEN~~She shouldn’t be here, not with my baby in her arms.And did she leave Sophia and Asher alone at home?I was trying not to be mad as I thought about why Haylee would choose to leave two of my kids at home and bring my newborn to the execution ground. It’s no news to anyone that children under the age of fourteen are not allowed on the execution grounds.“Might be news to her. She isn’t a member of this pack, after all,” Theo defended Haylee, speaking calmly before I could catch up to Haylee and demand she leave immediately.Or maybe it was the fact that I followed Haylee’s gaze and found Allison and Jose standing side by side that made me change my mind.“If you had made her a part of this pack, you would have been able to speak to her through the mind link without causing her pain,” Theo pointed out, reminding me that even though Haylee had been living here for the past forty-two days, she still wasn’t an official member of my pack.“I will see to that as soon a
The Alpha King's Hated Mate 58. A Hot Coal
HAYLEE~~The tension in the pack was undeniable, and the source of that tension was within the same palace I was living in. I could feel it during breakfast, and even though breakfast ended many hours ago, I could still feel it as Banita, Maeve, and Orla discussed the execution that would be happening soon.“His parents are old, and he is their first child,” Orla muttered with pity.Maeve rolled her eyes. “You can’t pity him, Orla. He dared to touch the Alpha King’s woman. That’s a big crime.”“But seriously, I have known him for years. He isn’t someone like that. I can’t seem to wrap my head around the whole drama,” Orla countered, talking about how the guard who was to be executed in a few hours was her neighbor growing up.Benita didn’t have much to say since she didn't know the guard. The four of us were in the kitchen as usual because that was the only place big enough for all four of us to be at once, and of course, I was holding Princess Jodie, who kept playing with the stra
