The King Alpha’s Mate Thirteen
My mothers eyes met mine, as she began to tell her story. “Do you remember the young girl I used to tell you about?” My mothers tone sounded hopeful. I thought back to the stories of the fae my mum told me as a child, remembering the story of an 19 year old girl named Clarissa. Clarissa was the princess of the fae island, Midsummer, and she was next in line for the throne. Midsummer was in the north of the fae realm and often found itself clashing with Betwixt. The Queen’s of the islands could never agree with how the realm should be governed and things often got heated between the pair. The Queen of Midsummer believed in equality and she didn’t believe in ranks. She also didn’t agree with the war between the werewolves, believing fae and wolves should be able to live peacefully and even mate, if they choose too. However, the Queen of Betwixt believed fae should be ranked by the abilities they possess. She was also determined the finish her mother’s, Amoura, fight with

Did I really just create an actual hole… in the ground? As I turned back to face the view of the broken field, my body froze as it became clear the earthquake wasn’t a figment of my imagination, but was instead the result of my anger. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, feeling overwhelmed by the days revelations. 3 weeks ago I was just a girl from Manchester, going to a human college and setting off the fire alarms to get out of classes. Today, I stand in the middle of a field that I found in my dreams, with the, supposedly ruthless but I would argue infuriating was the more appropriate word, King as my mate. My mother was a fae and I was a princess to a Kingdom I thought my mother had made up as a bedtime story. Oh, and I was supposed to save that kingdom… with my mate… the King. This was all too much. “What the hell, Serena?” My mother yelled. “Serena” my father gasped “what happened?” Warriors had started to surround the ar

“I absolutely am” I retort, attempting to shut my door behind me. Nate’s eyes narrowed at me, as his face filled with anger. He quickly places his bear-sized hand on the door, halting the door from closing. He takes a step closer, challenging me. His proximity created an intimidating but intimate feeling between us. I feel my body tense up being so close to him. Nate shot me a warning look. “Get changed, now”. His voice was quiet but demanding. The nerve of this man caused me to automatically roll my eyes. Conscious of Maddie sleeping only metres away, I turned to him. “Nate, get a grip. Maddie is sleeping, I’m not getting changed” and with that, I forced the door shut. Sooner or later he had to learn I wouldn’t just submit to his orders. His eyebrows furrow at me. “Let’s go.” I said, before practically skipping down the corridor. I should probably reign in my enthusiasm for winning the challenge between Nate and I. I could faintly hear John somew

I giggled at Nate’s possessive tone. “I love the sound of that” I replied. I couldn’t wait to be truly mated with Nate. I hated not being able to shout from the rooftops that he was mine. “I don’t want to keep it a secret that you’re my mate” I blurted out. Nate chuckled at my confession. “Then we won’t” he smiled. “But we need to wait for you to access your Wolf first, before I can mark you” Nate sighed. “But your mother said once you made your decision, your Wolf would come through so hopefully that will be any day now”. Nate’s optimistic tone made me smile. I was hoping to meet my Wolf soon. I felt like a part of me was missing and she was the missing piece. Currently I’m a werewolf without a Wolf and a Fae without knowledge or control over her abilities. What a shit storm… “I hope so, I feel as though I’m incomplete waiting for her to connect with me” I responded, sadness evident in my voice. Nate turned to me, cupping my cheeks in his hands. “She’ll come soon

I knocked on Nate’s door, before entering. He was sat lent back in his chair, watching me sheepishly walk into the room. His eyebrows were raised as he wore an amused expression. I rolled my eyes. “Wipe that look off your face”. “Really, princess? I leave you alone for-” he looked down at his watch, checking the time “35 minutes? Did you miss me already?” He taunted. I scoffed. “That cousin of-” “Second cousin” Nate corrected. “Whatever. I’m convinced she’s satan in disguise”. I proclaimed. Nate sighed. “What did she do this time?” Nate rubbed his forehead as he lent forward. “She screamed in a young girls face, demanding that she moved so Betty could sit her ‘Royal’ ass down”. As the words left my mouth, they sounded almost unbelievable. “Nate, the girl looked no older than 14 and she was all alone. And not to bring up an obvious point, but this isn’t the first time Betty has pulled a stunt like this. You only have to mention her name to the school students to

I dragged my feet down the academy halls, wishing I was still spending the morning with Nate rather than heading to history. But Nate had promised we would go away for the weekend if I kept my attendance high, so it was truly a no-brainer. The opportunity to spend 3 days alone with Nate was worth the mundane college classes. I wonder where we will go? I hope it’s somewhere secluded and private, somewhere no one can disturb us and I can stay in his arms every second. Somewhere we didn’t have to hide our fate. I suddenly remembered our conversation this morning. Nate said he would announce we were mated at the social tonight. I wonder what people will think? After this mornings performance with Betty, maybe people will think I’m a trouble marker and not fit to assist in leading the pack? I still had a long way to go in my training and truthfully, I wasn’t anywhere near ready to take on the responsibilities that came with being mated to Nate. I hadn’t even started my fae

“Okay S, I want you to close your eyes” my mother directed. I did as she told me and stood in the centre of the clearing with my eyes closed. “Clear your mind” she told me. I allowed my mind to go blank for a few moments, observing nothing but darkness in front of me. Only, it wasn’t long before my worries soon fought their way back into my conscience. The realisation of why I was stood in the beautiful setting now had my attention. I was trying to learn how to control my abilities, but just under two weeks ago I didn’t even know I possessed such abilities and now, what? I was supposed to learn how to harness them without truly understanding what they were? You can’t learn to do something you don’t know is possible? Hell, two weeks ago my mother was human! Well, she wasn’t.. but she was! To me, at least. I just can’t fathom how much has changed. “You aren’t focussing” my mother warned, interrupting my mental spiral. “Because there is too much to fo

“S!” My mother exclaimed. “You did it!” I span around to face my mother and Nate, who both possessed wide grins on their faces. My mother threw her arms around me, almost squeezing the life out of me. “I knew you could do it” she smiled. “Hopefully next time I won’t almost have us struck by lightening beforehand” I shook my head in disbelief, as I mentally replayed the havoc I had recently caused. “It would be nice” my mother laughed, before kissing me on the cheek. “I’m proud of you, S”. “Thanks, mum”. She nodded back at me, still smiling. “Well I’ll go find your father and then we will head back”, she told me as she headed back towards the trees we had shortly came through. I turned to Nate, who was watching me with pride evident in his expression. His raven hair was slightly blowing as a gentle breeze pushed past us. The sun was shining down onto his tanned face, illuminating his sharp jaw line and cheekbones. He looked so handsome.

Five years later…Laughter filled the room next door, followed by a hasty “shh!” by Nate.I shook my head in dismay, chuckling as I overheard the scene. I flipped the duvet off my legs, before shuffling my feet inside the slippers resting at my bedside.I tiptoed across the floorboards, desperately trying to not make a sound, before gently twisting the door to our bed chambers.I creeped along the hallway until I reached the door of our nursery. I quietly rested my head against the wooden frame, listening in to whatever was so amusing.“Ahhh!” Nate exclaimed, before being followed by a concerning loud thud. Giggles echoed thereafter, as footsteps of tiny feet could be heard pitter-pattering along the floorboards.Choosing to go with the element of surprise, I abruptly flung open the door before me. Suddenly, three pairs of alarmed eyes cast over me as they realised they’d been caught in the act.I folded my arms across my chest, pretending to be furious at what I had found. “Well well

“You’re pregnant?” Amber squealed, as she jumped up and down in excitement. “With a baby?” Terror overlooked Archie’s face, he was never much a kid person. “This is so exciting!” Maddie exclaimed, clapping her hands together repeatedly. I laughed loudly at each other their reactions, before placing my hand on Archie’s shoulder. “Yes, Archie. With a baby.” His eyes widened. “Oh goddess.” He muttered, before his eyes darted to the floor. Anyone would think it was him who was having a pup. “Could this day get any more special?” Maddie welled up beside me, wafting her hand against her face in order to protect her makeup. I gleamed as looked at each of my best friends, each so beautiful in their own way. We’d already faced so many challenges together and this would be another to add to the list. Maddie was right, today truly couldn’t become any more special. As Maddie and Amber donned their pale blue bridesmaid dresses, the realty of my future started to set in. This is what we had
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Eight
Nate had insisted I went to see the nurse this morning, after experiencing continuous dizzy spells and waves of nausea since yesterday evening. I repeatedly told him I’d more than likely eaten something funny, but he wouldn’t settle with that reason. So after a huff and a puff, I stripped off my stubborn boots and finally agreed to see the nurse. Frankly, I think he needed the distraction anyway. So as Nate paced around the nurse’s office anxiously awaiting my blood results, I laid awkwardly on the hospital bed twiddling my fingers, trying not to bring the new hit of nausea I was suffering from to his attention. As the brunette nurse, I now knew was named Mary, reentered her office Nate threw his hands in the air with an exasperated sigh. “Finally!” He muttered, as he took his place back by my side. I rolled my eyes at his dramatics, choosing to ignore his impatience, even though we’d only be waiting approximately 6 minutes. I’d learnt to pick my battles with Nate, some comments j
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Seven
It had been a draining couple of days since we finally revealed the truth. Questions had been coming at me from every possible direction from those trying to understand what being a hybrid truly meant, which typically resulted in me using some form of magic to demonstrate my capabilities. But the excitement was wearing down, as a new daunting reality started to set in. One that would leave an everlasting effect on my beloved mate. William’s execution day. After going back and forth over whether Nate had made the correct decision, he ultimately decided that he had. In his eyes, he knew it wasn’t right for his brother to escape the consequences another werewolf who had committed the same crimes would receive. So today was the day. Nate would finally say goodbye to his brother once and for all. But that wasn’t the only big event happening today. This morning I would be escorting my mother back to Midsummer, where she will temporarily take control of the throne until I have settled i
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Six
Serena’s POVNate tangled the ends of my hair around the tips of his fingers, as he gazed out our chamber’s window absentmindedly. The responsibility of choosing an appropriate punishment for his own brother, well it was never something he had expected to do.This time yesterday he had been expecting a warm family reunion once he had saved William from what he believed was a threat. Who could have guessed William was the real threat.He had the weight of the world on his shoulders. Other than support him in his decision, there wasn’t much I could do. Nate had to figure this one out on his own. Whatever decision he made, I’d stand by him.With a heavy sigh, he turned his head against the pillow and met my gaze. His eyes were sunken, dulled by the burden he bared. “I know what I’m going to do.” His lips formed a tight line.I gently placed my palm on his cheek, offering physical support. “Whatever it is, I’ll be right behind you.”His pupils dilated as a warm smile spread across his lip
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Five
Third Person’s POV Serena sobbed uncontrollably as she held her mate’s lifeless body, refusing to accept the fate she’d been handed. She pulled him in closer, stroking the side of his cheek as the tears from her weeps fell onto him one by one. She locked eyes with her mates so called brother. Anger seethed through her, bubbling in her veins every millisecond longer she watched Nate’s killer. “How could you do this?” She spat, venom laced in her voice. William sighed as his eyes darted to the ceiling. “Do you have any idea what it was like? Living in his shadow? Always Nate this, Nate that. He was so bloody perfect, I couldn’t possibly compare.” He gritted through his teeth as he relived the memories. William had always been jealous of the attention Nate had received. He had tried his very best to be the perfect prince for his father, putting in extra hours of combat training and studying until early hours of the morning, learning the perfect etiquette and the responsibilities bei
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Four
Third Person’s POV One by one the warriors were discreetly taken out. However, the more that went missing, the more likely it was for the remaining warriors to notice. They were running out of time, it wouldn’t take much longer for their presence to be revealed. It wasn’t the warriors noticing that would be the issue, it was the beckoning call they were likely to make to Skylar. As the bodies piled up behind the abandoned house, Maddie watched from afar as she waited for a signal or saw some form of distress. Hidden behind a overgrown hedge, neck deep in the woods, she desperately tried to remain as quiet as she could. She reminded herself repetitively of all that not only she was capable of, but the loved ones she was watching eliminate the threat. Whilst she was a powerful witch, she’d never actually had to use her powers in a fight before. So her hesitation… well, it was a little understandable. Just as the men set out to remove the final four warriors, one of them caught a gl

“Are you ready?” Nate asked, his voice was mellifluous and calm, slowly easing away my anxieties.He wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him. His green emeralds bored into mine, flickering with determination.A comforting smile crept onto his lips, reminding me of his certainty. I nodded my head firmly, allowing the fire within the take the reign. “I’m ready.” I demanded.He quickly enveloped me into a tight hug, before capturing my cheeks in his palms and placing a hard, passionate kiss on my lips.This is what I was fighting for.“Go get her, baby girl. Remember, I’ll be close by the entire time. You aren’t doing this alone, we’re a team.” He promised, before softly placing his lips on my forehead one final time.“Leia, do your worst.” His voice echoed in my mind.“You don’t have to ask me twice.” She snorted, resulting in a laugh erupting from Nate.“I didn’t doubt it.” He confirmed. “Okay, update me as often as you can.”I glanced longingly at him once last time
The King Alpha’s Mate Sixty Two
“Alright.” Nate sighed as he released his grip around my waist. “But keep your mind link open so I can have regular updates.” He raised his brows as he narrowed his eyes at me. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at him, as I shook my head ever-so-slightly. “Like I would ever shut you out, wolfie.” I rummaged my fingers through his raven locks, before rising to my feet and offering him a final smile as I left the room and headed toward the academy dorms. “What do you think she looks like?” Leia blurted out suddenly as I dragged my feet against the gravel pathway. “Who?” I asked, knowing she couldn’t be asking about Betty. We’d unfortunately had the luxury of seeing her morbid face every day for the last few months. I couldn’t help but wonder what Nate had planned for her, she may have betrayed us but at the end of it all, she was still his family. Much to his dismay, whether he chooses to acknowledge that or not. “Who else? The wicked witch of the west.” Leia grumbled. I let out a l
