All Chapters of The Alpha King's Ugly Bride: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“When were you going to tell me, alpha Zayn invited you to his wife’s birthday party, and you accepted?” Xavier asked, stepping into the garden and making his sudden presence known.  She noticed his voice seemed too calm for someone who would get dragged off to some place this evening without proper notification.  She lowered the cup of tea in her hand onto the small glass plate Toni held out. The maid nodded and immediately departed from the garden, making the alpha king and Mia the only ones left. “I was going to tell you tonight.” “Tonight?” he repeated in disbelief, a scoff following right after. “You were invited a week ago, but you were going to tell me tonight. You hoped to take me by surprise because you knew I would refuse the invitation.”  She narrowly stared at him. “He’s an alpha and a member of the council of elders. What was I supposed to do?”  “Refuse his invitation as luna and as Queen,” he replied as if it

She dragged a sharp breath as he finished explaining.He had painted such a picture that she easily imagined every single thing he had said in her head. It felt great. Her lips parted as she breathed raggedly through and her eyes fluttered a few times. She could hear her heart was beating faster. Her nipples were hard and pressing against the fabric of the dress and between her legs, damp with needs. “I didn’t know that.” “Well, now you know.” “You never told me who to think about when I pleasure myself,” Mia spoke up, when Xavier was about to take his leave. He gave her a smile that made her breath cut in her throat. “You can think about whoever you want.” He replied, and he kissed her forehead tenderly, making her body spark up. His soft lips didn’t linger for more than a few seconds before pulling away. “Good night.” She retired to bed in her white singlet and tucked herself in. Her mind raced with thoughts about what the alpha king had told her about her body and wh

As soon as Xavier departed from Mia’s study, he returned to his chambers and picked out a long black hood before leaving the Palace. It was barely dark outside, and this wasn’t his usual routine when he visited Zara, but he needed to see her. He made the decision and every nerve in his body agreed to it. The last time he visited Zara, they shared so many intimate moments, yet something felt missing. He couldn’t wrap his hands around what it was, and when he got ready to leave, the kiss of her lips didn’t make him want to stay. Something had been happening to him, something insane, and it was the disappearance of the feelings he once had for his lover. A few months ago, the echoes of her name would send him wild and the thought of Zara’s fairness and body would send chills through him, but that was no longer the case. He didn’t know if she felt the change as well, but if she did, she said nothing about it. At first, he didn’t think it had anything to do with his wife, but today made

Xavier remembered being chained up in the temple at sixteen because he had spoken out of tone with his father. He stayed there chained and without food or water for many days and this triggered his premier shift. The guards heard the noises, but none came to his aid, not until his wolf emerged. A big, black, scary wolf with fur and glowing yellow eyes growled aloud in pain and anger. The chains fell off him, and the door opened soon after. In came the High priest and three guards with silver spears in their hands, ready to attack. Xavier surged forward and killed them all before running out into the woods, and when he shifted back into his human form, his actions dawned on him. He knew his father would have him disgraced and punished and Xavier made plans to run away.  When Robb found out what had happened, he ordered a search for him, declaring he wanted throughout the entire kingdom for his atrocities. Just as expected, when he was found, he was thrown into th

A few Lords arrived at the Asika household and so Mia declined her father’s offer to walk her to her carriage. He had a meeting to get to and she could see herself out in one piece. They shared a brief kiss, and he beseeched her to take care of herself.  The evening drew near when Mia took her leave. The palace was a little over an hour's ride from here, so she was certain she would get home before dark. The last thing she wanted was to encounter trouble on the road. King Xavier Ainsworth will have a legit reason to have her killed. Mia stepped towards her carriage and almost stepped in when she noticed a pair of glowing yellow eyes at the corner of the compound hanging on the wall of the ceiling.  She did not fear. This was her father’s house, which made it hers as well. But she knew better than to let her wolf's side take over so she could find out who was lurking around. Setting her wolf free would tell whoever was lurking around that Mia Asika w
