The Alpha king's Saving Grace Chapter 89
He stumbled backwards a bit like I had physically jabbed him with my words.I immediately felt a pang of guilt but that only lasted a second.I had finally let it out.I had fallen for him in the midst of all this chaos, so quietly that I didn't realize when he rubbed off on me.But for him, this was all a game.He looked like he was trying to process what I'd just said as his eyes searched mine.But I put my guard up and crossed my arms.The silence between us was so loud and the tension thick but none of us seemed to be ready to break it.We stayed that way, suspended in time and in each other's gazes.Mine, firm. His, confused.His lips were still swollen and wet from the kiss we just shared making it difficult to focus on my anger.“Tabitha…” he finally broke the silence.“Don't,” I cut him off with a shake of my head. “Domt say anything.”I was so convinced that he was just going to walk all over my feelings that I had laid at his feet with his words and I wasn't sure how much m

I didn't say anything because I couldn't, but he probably took my silence as a nudge to continue.“The wedding is taking place at my cottage down west and we'll be there all weekend.”I was certain my mortification was evident on my face but he didn't seem to read between the lines.He didn't even get to just spring up something like this on me especially when we weren't on the best of terms.“Do you have any objections?” He asked.His formal tone irked me but I had more important things to worry about.It was one thing to know Jason and Galia were getting married but it was a whole other thing to witness it.“No objections. I'll like to kindly decline,” I said, imitating his tone.“You can't,” he said through clenched teeth. “You're going and that final!” He growled, leaving no room for arguments.But I wasn't done.“I'm not going! You can't just force me to do something against my own will!” I was almost yelling.“The contract you signed states otherwise,” he said with an evil glin

Ares' pov I clenched my fists to keep from slamming them against Jason's face as he eyed Tabitha up.He was fucking getting married.“Assistant,” I filled in for him.The words sounded very bitter in my throat because deep down, I wanted her to be more but I couldn't risk it.I couldn't tell if it was the satisfied smile on Jason's lips or the unbothered smile Tabitha returned to him that made my blood boil more.I was about to lead her upstairs when we were interrupted.“Look who it is,” his annoying voice made my muscles stiffen.I turned around to see the big shit-eating grin on his face.“What the fuck is he doing here?” I growled angrily at the sight of my half-brother.He wasn't even close to Jason and I knew without being told that he was up to no good.He always was.His eyes left mine and raked Tabitha's body and desire filled them.Why did she have to wear those goddamn sexy shorts?I growled lowly and pushed her behind my back and away from his predatory stare.She didn't

Surprisingly, the shower had been warmer and more relaxing than I'd expected and I felt all my worked up nerves rolling away with the water down the drain.Nyx was very ecstatic about this new development while I could manage was a scowl but I hoped to get by the weekend without any friction.In any way or form.Hopping out of the shower, my eyes fell on the piles of white towels neatly folded.They looked neat enough so I picked one and dried my body and another for my hair.I put on the new pair of clothes and not knowing what to do with my hair, left it to air-dry.I took a deep breath by the door and focused on calming my breath.When I was sure I was ready to face him again, I opened the door.His scent lingered but he was no where in sight.I had expected to be relieved by his absence but to my chagrin, I felt disappointed.I grimaced at my own feelings and walked to the bed.It was huge and could easily fit half a dozen of people. Ares and I could share it and there would be a

“Baby, calm down,” Jason turned to her but she wasn't having any of it.“I want her out now!” She yelled.“She can't leave,” Jason said sternly.I wish I could.Galia paused and her eyes became teary.“She's the Alpha's guest. She can't leave,” Jason added in a pleading tone.“And it's my wedding! I don't want her around you!” She yelled.Then something clicked.The reason why she was acting the way she was.She was scared.She had seen me with Jason on the funeral day.“Don't yell,” I counseled in a sweet voice. “We don't want you having cardiac arrest.”I could literally see the fumes coming out of her ears as she glared daggers at me.I gracefully rounded the corner and picked my plate of sandwich.I could feel their eyes on me so I made it worth their while as I swayed my hips.I could already feel the lover's fight coming up and that made me feel a lot better.Without sparing them a second glance, I walked back to the room while Galia proceeded to pulling down the building with h

It was evening and the house was bustling more than earlier.I hadn't left the room since the incidence and hadn't seen Ares either since then but I presumed more guests were arriving from the loud chatter going on outside.I didn't know how long I planned to remain camped out in the room but I had exhausted my energy for human -or wolf- interaction for the day.Scrolling aimlessly through my phone, a soft knock on the door had me looking up.Ares would never knock.I immediately became alert and asked in an stern voice, “yes?” The door was pushed open and pretty much the last person I expected to see walked through the doors.“Can I come in?” Galia asked.Her tone was still snippy and curt.“Aren't you already in?” I asked and turned back to my phone.From my peripheral vision, I could see her lifting her eyes upward, an action she did whenever she was in a shit position and without being told, I knew she wasn't here on her own will.“I…. I just wanted to apologize. I crossed every

Nyx clawed at me to let her out but I had to stay in control or things would get messy.It was clear now that he had been one of the people that tortured Tabitha and pushed her into taking her own life.If there was any chance I could get revenge for her, I would do it without thinking twice.I couldn't tell whether it was my blazing eyes or my strong hold on his neck, but raw fear flashed through his eyes for a second.“Now, how would you like me shoving my fingers into your eyes, plucking them out and feeding them to you?” I growled in a voice I could barely recognize as mine.Fear mixed with something I could only peg as desire flashed through his eyes and my hold faltered.He grabbed the opportunity and twisted my arm.I held back a cry as he slammed my front against the wall and pinned my hands behind me.I stayed still, not wanting to give him the satisfaction of a fight even though his fingertips were burning my wrists and I was sure it would leave a bruise.“That has to be the

“Bitch,” I muttered under my breath and resisted the urge to smash my phone against the wall.At this point, I couldn't tell if it was a prank or a threat but with each passing second that I read the message, it seemed more like the latter.“What do they want from me?” I thought to myself.If it was an ex-girlfriend of Ares', I definitely wasn't a threat to them.My mind played back the image of the chandelier falling on me.I couldn't just wait for them to launch another attack, could I?I pondered but I knew deep down that there was nothing else I could do.Walking over the bed and laying on it, I closed my eyes and remained that way for a long time.Soon, the bustling in the house returned and when I opened my eyes, it was already dark outside.I breathed in the air around me and my heart fell when I realized then Ares hadn't been in here all evening.My rolled over on my side, as I became more awake.My presence wasn't even needed here. What exactly was I here?Ares could have had
