Alastair

We were about to begin with breakfast and my frustration for the earlier event was stifling deliberately until a knock on the door interrupted us.

Fuck it.

I heard Chelsea sigh in relief, or ease or whatever when I walked toward the door and opened it.

A maid, who probably had run here, bowed to me. “Your Highness. Luna is calling everyone to join the breakfast.”

The vein across my temple twitched as I bit back a curse. It would be an upright lie if I say I didn't expect it.

Although this little unfortunate maid had no faults, I wanted to let my anger burst and show her hell just because of ruining the moment. I didn't. Instead, remained calm and nodded and gestured at the woman who sat on the couch. “Don’t move these foods until she touches at least ten items and tries at least five of them.”

“She doesn't need to waste time here. I will finish—” Chelsea began to whine from behind only to confirm my doubts of her leaving the room once I leave.

    Alastair I cleared both my mind and throat the moment I entered the dining room. My mother, my uncle Mr. Valek, his sixth or probably seventh wife Mrs. Giana, and Reagan were already there. Reagan ignored my presence just how I ignored his even though I was still in the urge to cut his balls off for touching her. “Alastair.” My uncle came forward to pull me into an embrace but I had to stop him by grabbing his hand and shaking it fiercely without offering the greeting he wished for. He wasn't taken aback at all. He expected it. Grinning, he said. “Oh, right. You don't hug.” And mom said he was sick. “And it's amazing that you forget it every time.” I retorted with a straight face, my voice as cold as ice. After letting go of his hand, I turned to Mrs. Giana. Taking her hand, I kissed the tip of it welcoming a smirk to my lips. “I am so glad that you make it with Mr. Valek till this fourth meeting.” It was surprising since most of his wives don't last for the fourth meeting.

    Alastair “Stressed?” Rhett queried. After breakfast, he suggested getting a drink in the cellar. We were taking the elevator to the underground where it was built. “Stressed!” As the lift doors parted, I reiterated his utterance and we strode forth into the cellar. Until a while ago, the conversation had been about him, and flame falls. I was curious if he had a little chance against his brother. He did, yet he refused to make an attempt. And so, after all that had transpired, the subject of his choosing was now directed towards me with a sharpened focus. Since Alice divulged her scheme to guide the slave to that forbidden graveyard, I decided to be reticent and that must have bothered him. “Is it even worth my redundant thoughts?” I queried. Neither of us was under any illusion that it was so. Alice had been prepared for the battle against me for ages. Her heart was consumed with a fierce determination to claim the throne, to seize the position of authority, and to wield the po

    Chelsea Throughout the entire time, I had been compelling myself to taste a few of the opulent foods adorning the table. It was not like I hated them. The core of my unease lay in the persistent gaze of the maid named Shopia. Her unwavering scrutiny had become an incessant presence, one that refused to be shaken off. I requested her to join me for breakfast. She refrained from laying a finger upon anything, for she fears the disapproval it would surely elicit from Alastair. I encouraged her to sit down. She said the same thing. Really, everyone was scared to death by that man. I didn't pressurise her. I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. But she was doing it to me instead. Her gaze, with its luminous brown irises, remained unwaveringly fixed upon the sensitive curve of my neck. Perhaps it was the allure of my neck.Not being able to take it anymore, I ran a hand on my neck to distract her and cleared my throat. “You are not into women, are you?” Our eyes locked, a silent co

    Alastair “What's yours?” What's mine? Why was I fighting? Why was I not giving up? Why was I devoting my entire life just to rule this kingdom? His inquiry indeed provoked every bone that comprised my skull. I had the answer, yet I had no idea if it was reasonable enough or not. For me it was. To be exact, it was more valid than anything I had ever known but for others, it might not be. “A promise.” I spoke. “A promise?” he asked. I nodded. “I am not sure what—” Rhett and I halted our conversation, our ears pricked up to the noise that was rapidly escalating above us in the ceiling. Someone was pacing erratically on the first floor, her voice echoing through the dining hall situated directly overhead of our position in the cellar. "Shut the fuck up," she spat at someone else with a venomous tone. Both of us, Rhett and I, were perplexed since the feminine tone was strikingly familiar. “I told you to shut up.” Another warning was issued by the voice. “Lara?” Beside me, Rhett

    ChelseaHis gaze had bored into mine, then dropped to scan my lips. The firm line of his mouth gradually set loose as his dark eyes screamed the power of his existence that would be able to devour my little parts of body wholly.However, Instead of letting this temptation consume me, I cleared my throat. “May I leave, Your Highness?” I was hellbent on leaving this hellhole. But he flung my wish to the waste with a shake of his head. Then he approached me, his slow steps closing the distance between us.Beside me, Princess Lara scowled. She showed no shame in unraveling the mask of envy she wore. If I were in her place, I would have been dead embarrassed.“No.” He said.But of course, I didn't give a damn about his opinion. I suffered from enough just because of doing what he wanted me to do until now.“Thank you.” Displaying that much of my gratitude, I pulled the hem of my skirt and turned away to leave.“Chelsea.”I heard him calling my name and the gasps of the other two individuals

    ChelseaThe night had fell. However Lilith was still not back. The guards failed to find her. There was no trace of her in any CCTV as if she just vanished into thin air. I wondered if it was Alastair who did it If he took her, what would he be doing with her? And if it's not him, it had to be Reagan. Both meant threats to her existence.I was in front of the bow room. Ms. Kyle was inside to deal with something. As much as loved following her, today I was eager to go back to my room. I was neither ready to face Alastair nor Princess Lara. She hadn't left yet. I guessed she wouldn't until she got what she wanted.Earlier, I saw her entering the study. I wondered if Alastair was inside. I hated thinking about him. But lately, I discovered that I just couldn't help it. He was always in my mind.Taking a deep breath, I tried to clear my messed up mind. But all of a sudden, a scent emanated from my body, triggering my nasal passages. I had no idea if it was good or bad. I couldn't smell it

    ChelseaKai led me into the vast hall and showed me the portraits of former royalties that adorned the walls.Alastair's father had died a long time ago. Not only his father but also all the relatives from his father's side. The underlying reasons were known to none. There was a rumor that they went to war with vampires and never came back.However, when it happened, Alastair was only seventeen years old, and because there was no one from his side to ascend the throne, the Queen was forced to take up the role. “It's dramatic, right?” Kai said as he directed me through the Palace's art gallery.It was tremendous in size and was extremely shiny. The walls were covered in a variety of paintings and sketches. Kai said most of the arts belong to Reagan.The level of perfection that his artworks carried stunned me. Every single line and color was executed with such great precision. I discovered a bookcase in one of the room's nooks that contained a jumbled assortment of papers stacked insid

    AlastairThe surprised look on her face that implied she was glad and the way she held me so comfortably without fear were something that quivered my damned heart. And that scared me so damn much.Yet, regaining my composure, I responded to her, “I promised her a good fuck. Not to good-fuck her. There were some other guys in the study.” She deserved an explanation. She was my mate. She was here for me.Hearing what I had said, she narrowed her gaze. “Guys?” Of course, she wasn't expecting that.I nodded as I emphasized my words, “Yeah, GUYS.”When I said, Lena was crazy. I meant she was crazy in all aspects of life. She had always wanted me, but never in a romantic way. She wanted me because I was the one who discovered her feral fantasies and that she was a sex freak. To be exact, a few years back, I just caught her red-handed, at a party, with two guys. Then again, at another party, with two girls. Threesome, foursome, gangbang—were just her things. I never gave a damn about it. In

    His order had a tone of possessiveness. The fact he wanted her to hate her ex-boyfriend was something that set her in bewilderment. The flare of fury wasn't there in his eyes anymore. He ordered, but at some points, it seemed like pleading, as if his eyes begged her to do what his mouth had said.“You got that?”Only when she nodded, he moved away whilst her reddened eyes trolled to the lump of his throat that bobbed what felt like nervousness.“You shouldn't even attempt to do anything reckless. I would despise that.” With that, he trudged out of the room, didn't bother to steal a second glance at her who already had tears flowing down her cheeks.Ryle left the crypt when he received a call from the Prince. He ordered him to be in the study as soon as possible. Ryle saw the dead body of the guard and already assumed something bad had happened. It was another guard who confirmed that the female Alpha brought here saw Lucian. She wasn't supposed to know about this secret. The mess was

    “Your highness. Is there anything wrong?”Alastair, who had his attention fixed on the patio, let out a loud snort in response to the inquiry that was posed by the guard standing next to him. "Who was in charge of doing the monitoring thingy that was supposed to be done in this area?" He asked, gaze still not leaving the terrace.“I made sure there was no one around.” The guard retorted confidently. “But is there anything wrong, your highness?” The way his Prince sounded did not give him any good vibe.Anxiety erupted throughout the guard's body as Alastair hissed and gripped the back of his neck with his sharp claws digging into his skin. Because of the potentially dangerous tension, the other males there became numb in their spots.Soon after, the Prince decapitated the guard by snapping his neck to his left, and blood gushed out of his body. “Then who is that, Mister fartknocker?” He gritted his teeth dangerously whilst his lips formed a smile at his mate who had been watching his

    Days were passing by so fast like in a blink of an eye. Alastair came to sleep daily after that night but late. Either Chelsea would be sleeping or he would fall asleep faster without saying a word to her. In the morning, Chelsea never found him in the room. She couldn't help but wonder what time on the earth he leaves and what mystery he unravels so early in the morning.The rest of the palace remained unchanged except for the fact that Reagan had left, she didn't know when but it was indeed a relief.“There, Chelsea.” Kai lifted his forefinger to point toward the wood behind the palace. “We used to fight there with each other every single day.”“Every single day?” asked Chelsea. Her stare followed down the direction he had indicated. From the elevation, she could appreciate the crowns of the trees, and the narrow pathways that led to the deeper parts of the forest.Chelsea took a few deep breaths while holding the terrace's fine concrete balustrade and allowing the clean air to invi

    After the error appeared on the screen, Alastair slapped the keyboard in frustration and turned in the direction from where the sound of gasps filled the room. “Why are you here?” asked Alastair.He wasn't even ready to see Chelsea let alone the company she had brought. However, he assumed it was otherwise; Kai was the guide here, Chelsea was his client. It was not his first time. Whenever Alastair spared himself the space, Kai would be there to seize a share of it with a company Alastair despised. For the company he brought this time that Alastair undoubtedly didn't detest, he couldn't bark at him.The blank stare he conveyed to Chelsea bombed her rational mind with the flashbacks of last night. Her cheeks blossomed red. “W-we will leave.” She pulled Kai's hand in order to leave with him. However, as they proceeded to leave, Alastair's voice stopped them.“You can stay.”Kai, the most dumbfounded one, tilted his head. “Who? Me?” The Prince gave him a cold questioning look and it too

    In the morning, Chelsea woke up on the bed. Her body itched when she stretched her arms and neck. The spot between her thighs ached a little too. To the soreness, her drowsy eyes flipped open and she was welcomed by the thick blanket that covered her body, Alastair's wrinkled white shirt that she wore, and the vibrator that saved her life on the nightstand. Abruptly, pink grew across her cheeks.The entire night Alastair was sitting on the couch while she pleased herself with that thing. He made it seem like her moans didn't bother him at all, but she clearly noticed the bump on his pants and she didn't even know why she was glad to see him suffering. Yes, he, Alastair, the great Prince suffered. Yet, he didn't do one simple thing! He didn't dare to touch her. Because she had made it clear before that she didn't want him to touch her.It took her three hours to finally reach her sweet spot and see the stars. It was almost dawn by then and at that time, he was the one who seemed to be

    [Warning: Chapter Contains mature content. Not suitable for young readers. Feel free to ignore if the content makes you feel uncomfortable.]Alastair never came across a woman so confident like her in ages. Regardless of being foreign to the concept, speaking her heart didn't even cost her a single stutter. Thrilled, he began to instruct her. “Lie on your back on the bed, cover yourself with the blanket, and...” His words paused at the knock on the door and an evince of relief went evident on his face.By the time she was getting ready on the bed heeding his guidance, he had reached the door and opened it slightly, careful not to let the outsider get an inside view. Chelsea wasn't surprised. It would have been more surprising if he hadn't had any visitors.Facing Alastair, Ryle who stood behind the door holding a plastic bag gave the Prince a cautioned look. “Here is your parcel. I hope it helps.” Saying, he handed the bag to him. In the middle of the night, it was so awkward and hard

    ChelseaBobbing his throat, he met my gaze again which I assumed had narrowed to slits. Even my eyelids felt too heavy.The next moment, without him realizing it, I tried to push him away, hoping to create some distance between us, but he remained steadfast, only withdrawing his arm to stuff his hands into his pockets."Stay away from me. When you are close, you make me have so many stupid thoughts..." I mumbled, my voice barely above a whisper. But Alastair didn't budge. His eyes narrowed, his lips curving into a sly smile that made me feel exposed."I would love to know about those," he declared, his voice husky and sending shivers down my spine. My cheeks grew even hotter, and I could feel his words seep into my very core. I was becoming increasingly aware of his effect on me, both physically and mentally. It was overwhelming.But I couldn't help but feel a mixture of frustration and confusion. How could I let myself be so affected by Alastair? It was as if he had some unseen power

    ChelseaHe seemed caught completely off guard by my question. Alastair, with his chin held high, had his back resting against the wall. His eyes fluttered in confusion as he responded, "What are you talking about?" It was clear that he was not expecting me to remember what had happened while I was under the influence of the desires, and he seemed to think that would give him an advantage.Determined not to let him manipulate me, I stood my ground and insisted, "You know." My voice came out hoarse and insistent, a reflection of the pain and frustration that were slowly overpowering me. My breath was getting heavier with every passing second.He crossed his arms over his chest and shook his head. "No, I don't," he replied, a hint of irritation in his voice. I could tell he didn't like lying, and his expression was so transparent that it was easy to see through his façade.A sarcastic smile played on my lips as I retorted, "I thought you hated liars." I wanted to remind him that he was a

    Alastair, who was attempting to hide a smirk on his face, shoved his hands into his pockets and cleared his throat. "I have no problem with that." The one thing that stood out to him most about Ms. Beth was the fact that she was always willing to provide a hand whenever he required assistance.Chelsea's face was devoid of colors as she blinked at Ms. Beth who was still determined on what she had declared and then, averted her gaze at Alastair. He didn't seem to dispute any time soon. Instead, he was more than eager for her to tie his tie for him. Jerk, this word was formulated for him."I don't know how to...""Well, I can teach you that... of course, if you want." Alastair had cut her words off and given her a wicked look."Fine." She gritted her teeth through a tight grin and rose from the bed with an abrupt force. Honestly, she knew how to tie a tie. She had seen her father wearing it, she had seen Lucian wearing it on occasions. She had learned from them well. But what she didn't
