THE ALPHA KING'S CURSED MATE.CHAPTER NINE.I stood still as Dominic's fingers inched closer to my pool of desire. I've wanted this moment to happen for so long. And now? It was."Do you want me to touch you, Caliana?"I nodded, and Dominic's fingers stopped only inches away from my pussy."Yes or No? Nodding your head is not in the answer,""Yes," I whispered."Yes, what?""Yes, Dominic, I want you to touch me,"He began teasingly moving his fingers, and my eyes closed on their accord."Tell me something, Cali. Are you still planning on marrying Tyson?"My eyes opened at his question."Y-Yes,"Dominic Gripped my hip roughly, and a gasp escaped my lips. "That so?"I nod.What other choice did I have? Papa had made clear that I was marrying Tyson even if I disagreed.I'm trapped with no way out, and I hurt my best friend tonight, and I know things between us will never be the same again. "He can't have what's mine," Dominic says as his fingers find my core and he begins rubbing slowly
The Alpha Kings Cursed MateCHAPTER TEN I waited for Dominic to return but two hours had passed and he still wasnโt back. How long does it take to patrol around such a small cabin?I notice the flames dying down in the fireplace so I walk over to the stack of wood Dominic had brought in and I grab a few logs and toss them in. Grabbing the fire poker I move them further in so the fire starts to gain its strength. The only light on in the cabin is the light from fire. I sit back down and watch the flames burn higher.Where are you Dominic?I sigh as I lay on my side facing the fire. At times like this I wish I would have been a werewolf so I could mind-link with Dominic and ask him if he was okay and if heโd be home soon.My eyelids become heavy and before I knew it sleep took over.โฆโฆ..My eyes opened when the door to the cabin opened and slammed shut. Dominic doesnโt even spare me a glance as he storms off toward the bedroom. โDominic?โWhen he doesnโt answer I get up and follow in
The Alpha King's Cursed Mate.CHAPTER ELEVEN I woke to the smell of bacon. I smiled knowing Dominic was making me breakfast before we headed back to the palace, back to reality.Even though I wanted to stay in this bubble that Dominic created, I got up and walked toward the kitchen.โGood morning,โ Dominic says as I sit down at the bar.โMorning,โDominic places a plate in front of me with Bacon and eggs.โThanks,โ I mutter.โHow did you sleep?โ Dominic asks as I take my first bite.โGood, and you?โHe smiles.โGood since I was laying next you,โMy stomach drops.Donโt lose your cool Cali.โDo we have to go back?โDominic sighs but nods.โDominic, please. I want to stay here for a while, itโs beautiful and peaceful and for the first time I feel free,โDominic nods.โWe can stay for only today,โ A smile spreads across my face and Dominic smiles.I wasnโt ready to go back. I donโt want Dominic running back to Kimberly. I need more time with him.I know Mama and Papa wonโt like this bu
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Twelve.I woke up earlier than Dominic so I could make him breakfast. It took a lot of begging and pleading but Dominic agreed that we could stay another day. I know mama and papa will be worried but I donโt want to lose this feeling. This morning as Dominic ate his breakfast he told me that he was my first and was going to be last. I was so sleepy I hadnโt realized I told him he was my first.Dominic and I spent most of the day in bed and each time was better than the last.Dominic went to chop more wood for the fire and I decided to take a walk which is what Iโm doing now, walking.I know we canโt stay here forever and sooner rather than later we have to go back to the palace and face reality.โฆโฆโฆโฆโฆ..Charles.โIโm not going,โI glare at my son Weston.โYou will,โHis forehead creases.โWhy is it so important to you to kill this girl?โMy fist my palms and stare out of the window as the memories come flooding back.I loved her. I begged Calian
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed MateChapter thirteen.โCali, thereโs something you need to know,โ Mama says sitting next to me on my bed.When Dominic and I walked into the palace our parents were waiting for us and both of their eyes landed on mine and Doms entwined hands. Iโve never seen papa so angry and the way he yelled at Dominic and commanded him to his office while Mama brought me to my room and made me shower.โWhat?โโDo you remember the stories I would read to you when you were younger?โI nod.Mama would always tell me about princess Caliana and two loves which she had to choose but only the right one would break the curse. Mama always made the best stories even Annabella would come just to hear them.โCali, I turned your life into a story. All those stories I based from your past lives,โMy past lives? I donโt have a past life you only live once.โMama, what are you talking about? I donโt have past lives,โโYou do. Do you remember when you called your father Harry?โI nod remembe
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Fourteen.Just as Dominic told me papa was here he stops in front of the cell, looking at the damage Dominic had done to them his eyes glancing from the cell to the dead guard on the floor. Then his eyes fell on me wrapped in Dominicโs arms.Both papa and Dominicโs eyes were black something Anna and Bane would do when they were mind-linking each other. Like papa and Dominic are doing now.Papa shakes his head.โDid you have to kill him?โ Papa finally speaks.โI had no choice, he was going to hurt Caliana. I had to protect her,โPapa looks at me.โIs that true?โI nod, showing papa my neck.โCaliana go upstairs and have Kyle show Doctor Jacob to the cells,โโOkay,โI glance up at Dominic and wrap my arms around his waist and bury my face in the crook of his neck.โThank you, for saving me,โPapa cleared his throat and I let go of Dom and left the dungeons.I told Kyle what papa told me to and then I went to Annaโs room and told her everything that
The Alpha King's Cursed Mate.Chapter Fifteen.I was so excited to tell Toby that news. I knew it was a hard decision for my parents to make, and Iโll help them both anyway I can.โSister Mary Danvers. Get Tobyโs papers ready, heโs going home with me,โ She nods.โYour mother phoned me already. Toby is on his way down, I havenโt told him yet. Hereโs his file,โ She says, handing it to me just as Toby walks into the room.โCali, your back,โโI am,โ I nod.โDo you wanna play?โI shake my head.โWe have to go. Papa is waiting at the palace,โHis smile falls.โWill you come back soon?โI purse my lips. โI can, or you can come home with me,โHis little faces lit up.โReally?

Heโs so nervous, I told him about mama and papa. He canโt wait to meet papa, he already loves mama.
The Alpha King's Cursed Mate.Chapter Sixteen.Iโve kept my distance from Weston as much as possible. I have also been avoiding Dominic as well. Since he has Kimberly he doesnโt need me anyways, not anymore.Annabella dragged me out to the pool to swim. I didn't want to go but Anna insisted that we have girl time while we tan and swim.โThings are going great between Bane and me,โ Anna and Bane have been inseparable since his release from hospital. I'm happy for her. I envy her. I'll never have what she does.A mate to love her.โIโm happy for you,โ I replied, rolling on my stomach to let the sun hit my back.Lying on my stomach felt weird like bubbles floating around and popping.โHow are things with you and Dom?โโThere is no me and Dominic. He made that clear and besides heโs back with Kimberly,โโPig,โ Anna says with disgust.I donโt say anything as she mumbles some curse words and talks about how much of a loser he is.โIโll go grab us a drink,โ Anna says walking back inside.I
The Alpha kingโs Cursed Mate.Epilogue.Six Years Laterโฆโฆโฆ.Tomorrow is Jasmine's twentieth birthday. Itโs hard to believe that after all these years the time is approaching for us to give her away to Cato Mortaga. Theyโve stayed friends for all these years and theyโve come to an agreement on how they will run the kingdoms as one.Today weโre meeting at their palace to sign the official document on how they run things. Dominic said he doesn't trust Tyson or son and they donโt want them taking advantage of Jasmine just because sheโs a female leader. I donโt want that either.โYou have everything ready I presume,โ Tyson asked Dominic as the three of us walked into his office.โI do,โ Dominic told him and handed him the paperwork.Without reading it Tyson signed it and handed it over to Cato who did the same.Cato slides the paper to Jasmine and she glances at Dominic and he gives her a small nod and she scribbles her name beside Catoโs.โCongratulations,โ Tyson shakes both the kid's h
The Alpha kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Forty-Seven.Itโs been two months since our stay at the Mortagaโs mansion. Things were going great with Jasmine and Cato, but Jasmine had an upset stomach and I sent her off to bed that night and a few hours later when I went to check on her she was crying hysterically I tried everything to calm her down but it was no luck she grabbed her chest and said her heart hurt Dominic and I rushed to the hospital and everything came back good. Her heart was fine.Since she hasnโt been the same. She barely talks to anyone she hardly eats. I have to force her out of bed to go school in the mornings and thatโs not like her. She loves school and her and Ginger are inseparable but lately she doesnโt talk to Ginger.Something is definitely wrongโฆ..maybe Dominic and I pushed her too far with this whole marriage thing to Cato. I told Dominic she was too young to know about it. Sofia and her big mouth.I sighed.I keep beating my head trying to figure out what we
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Forty-Six.Today the girls, Dominic and I, are going to visit Mortaga's Ginger even tagged along with us. This was all Jasmineโs idea. She said that her Cato has something they need to discuss before she agrees to do this. She told me that if I was strong enough to overcome my situation then she can overcome hers. I'm so proud of her for making this decision on her own and she decided to fight for what's hers. Yes! She will be losing a mate but sheโs going to be the first ever Queen. Thatโs a big deal all on its own.โWelcome,โ Tyson said when we walked into the foyer of his mansion. Dominic shook his hand.โThanks having us in short notice,โโAlways a pleasure,โ Tyson replied as he walked over and hugged me with a smile.โIโm sorry for the way our conversation over the phone ended. We hadnโt talked since,โ Tyson apologized.โIt all worked out in the end I guess,โ I told him as he led us into the sitting room.โWhereโs Cato?โ Jasmine asked.Tys
The Alpha kingโs Cursed MateChapter Forty-Five.Dominic says that if we leave Jasmine alone she will come around to the idea of marrying Cato. I havenโt told my girls about meโฆ.or about Agatha, or the choices I had to make at seventeen. But I think Jasmine is old enough to know the truth and it might help her understand this situation a little better. Iโm not saying she will be happy with what is but it helps her come to terms that we arenโt willingly giving her up to Mortagaโs if we could get her out of this we would.โWhatโs this girl's time really about mom?โ I sighed.โYour father thinks I should let you come around on your own, and heโs right. But I want to tell you about myself.โ I tell her and she frowns.โWhat about you? You're my mom, they end!โ She shakes her head and shoves a few fries into her mouth. Jasmine is a beautiful girl. Her black hair is dark as night , her eyes the brightest of blue with a complexion like mine pale white.Jasmine is the only one of our girls t
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Forty-Four.Eight years laterโฆ..It did no good to talk to Tyson; he wouldn't budge on the signing of the merger and with nothing Dominic and I could do we had no choice but to sign our daughters' happy way. Mama even tried to talk to Mark but he was just as bad as Tyson with the whole itโs the kids destinyโs and all kinds of bullshit. Jasmine is fourteen now and Sofia is twelve and Winter is ten. Dominic and I no longer have babies; they're growing so fast. โMOM!โ I mentally roll my eyes. One thing about having all girls two years apart from each other? They fight like cats and dogs. โYes?โ I asked as I made my way back into the kitchen at a cabin Dominic and I started renting once a year. Itโs close to the lake and the girls get to have fun and we get some time together as a family. โMom, Sofia is using her phone,โ Winter tattles. She was probably just upset because Dominic took her phone when he saw some texts from Amila. The two were plo
The Alpha kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Forty-Three.Six Years Laterโฆ..Today is Jasmineโs sixth birthday party and of course she had to have a princess themed party which Dominic went all out on. He got all the princess Characters balloons, a bounce house for the kids and two sheet cakesโฆ. His excuse for the cakes was that we have so many guests when in reality he plans on saving the cake so he can eat it for a week. Dominic and I had welcomed another daughter two years after Jasmine was born. We named her Sofia. She was born with no heart complications. Anna and Bane had twins, Andy and Amira,who are now three years old. Tyson and Mia had another son they named Cato whoโs the same age as Sofia, they havenโt brought up the agreement Iโm kinda hoping they donโt. โCali, Jasmineโs ready to blow out her candles,โ Anna says.We all gather around and sing happy birthday to her. She smiles so big as she closes her eyes and blows out the candle. Jasmineโs such a shy and gentle little girl on
The Alpha Kingโs Cursed Mate.Chapter Forty-Two.Itโs been two months since Bane found Jasmine's heart, and today we get to bring her home for the first time. Doctor Jacob said her little body has accepted the heart nicely and she shouldnโt have any more problems. He wants to see her back every six months to check on it to just make sure but he believes she will live a long normal life.Iโm so glad that Bane found her heart. It meant so much to me and Dominic. We both decided to treat him and Anna to dinner at a fancy restaurant tonight and show him how thankful we are. I didnโt want to leave the baby so soon after she came home but this was important to Dominic to do this for Bane so I asked mama and papa to watch Jasmine tonight while we take care of this. Even though mama and papa never really seemed interested in my being pregnant they have stood by us the whole time Jasmine was in the hospital they visit everyday.Dominic and I have been so wrapped up in the baby that the subject

According to doctor Jacob the medication that sheโs been on isnโt helping and without a heart she won't make it which is why they are letting me and Dominic hold her. She might not make it through the rest of the day. Our family is here surrounding us and supporting us as we hold her and say our goodbyes.How am I supposed to say goodbye to her? Iโve carried her in my stomach for months waiting to hold, raise her and be the best mother that I can be at seventeen.
