All Chapters of How to Reject the Alpha King: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

ARIAOne hour earlierFelix nervously walked in circles around my room for over fifteen minutes. My eyes followed his every move while he pondered our next move during the trial. Finally, he stopped and looked at me."I'm fucking glad Tyrion did what he did, but he also made it harder for us, you know? Everyone will think that the King is on your side," he grumbled."What he did was just. In my eyes, he did something the King should do," I said.Felix cocked his eyebrow and chuckled. "Oh, I can only imagine what the King looks like in "your eyes," Red. Your fuck-me look at him was more than obvious."A wave of heat flooded my cheeks in a flash. "I did not give him the fuck-me look!" I argued."Seriously? Thankfully, the courtroom is well-ventilated. Otherwise, every corner of it would have been filled with the scent of arousal, his and yours. Someone should lock you up so you can take care of that problem already." The smug smirk on his face put more blush on my cheeks."You were the

ARIA "I object!" Alpha Jake seethed as he jumped to his feet. "Mates can't testify against each other!" Anna stood only a few feet away from his bench. Her hands were tightly fisted, but I could still see her tremble beneath that mask of pretended confidence. I admired her bravery, but I wasn't going to let her stand there alone, even if I was not allowed to stand beside her. "Felix," I whispered to him. "I need you to stand between her and her husband." "Mind telling me, what is the story behind her coming here?" He cocked his eyebrow and smirked. "Later, Felix, we need to protect her." I gave him a meaningful stare, urging him to move. Felix nodded and did what I told him to, blocking Alpha Jake from looking at his ex-wife. As soon as he did, I could see her muscles relax. "Alpha King! You cannot let my mate testify!" Alpha Jake roared. Tyrion looked at me with a sly smirk before shifting his gaze to the prosecutors' bench. "Can I see your mark, Alpha Jake?" He turned pale w

ARIAMy mind went blank. I was staring at Tyrion as his lips painted a sexy grin. Those lips had just unleashed strange words, which my mind ineptly tried to process."Did you just... propose to me?"He chuckled, took my hands, and led us to sit on the bed. "Wouldn't it be the best solution?" he said, making me even more confused."Best solution... huh?" I mumbled, the sound of my pounding heart assaulting my eardrums.He kissed my forehead. "Red, think about it. You are strong, you have alpha blood in your veins, and even my wolf likes you. A lot of people already call you the Red Queen... Why don't we change it to Queen Red?"My heart kept thundering in my chest, but now the beat was tainted by a sliver of pain. "Do you suggest a marriage of convenience?"He leaned back and ran his fingers through his hair. "I didn't want this to sound like that…""Then, how was it supposed to sound? Tell me, because this sudden proposal seems... odd to say the least," I said, pushing my hand to my

ARIAMy widened eyes were locked tightly on Tyrion while my mind needed to reboot. My heart hammered against my chest while shudders flooded my body, wave after wave. Did he just make my Bright Haven a pack?! His single decision changed me from a rogue to an Alpha... Alpha Red. I felt bitter-sweet about it. I knew those people in Bright Haven deserved to have legal status. No one in the entire world would even think of them as criminals, common thieves, scammers, or bandits. They could not ask for anything more, but I felt like this situation was starting to lock me in a lie. Red had never existed. If I were to lead my people, I would rather do it as Aria Seymour, even if my last name had been tainted. Yet I had to shove my petty dreams into the deepest corner of my soul and focus on the way Tyrion's announcement was about to change everything in my life…"This is outrageous! It's like spitting in our faces! We will not allow it!" The Alphas inside the courtroom started an uproar whic

ARIAI was supposed to call Aziz, but I couldn't do it. I wanted nothing more than to tell him and everyone in Bright Haven the good news, but I also knew that Aziz would know that something was off. The second I would tell him that I was going to meet Alpha Kestrel, he would lose it. Aziz was the most rational person I knew, but not when it was about me or anything concerning the Blood Shadow Pack. He witnessed my recovery right after he had rescued me. He saw my face twisted from pain whenever someone cut my back in the fight. He swore that one day he would build an army that would crush the entire Blood Shadow Pack for what their Alpha did to me. I was certain that if I were to tell him that I was going to meet the sole cause of my nightmares, he would rush to Grand Lunaville to stop me from going.Of course, a part of me wanted him to stop me from going. Even though I was ten or a hundred times stronger than I was five years ago, I was still terrified of the moment I would face Ke
