81. Not Zenith, But You

Alpha Wade inhaled deeply, his hands shaking under the table. He was trying his best not to attack me on my seat. If looks could kill, I would be dead by now. However, I was not afraid of what he might do to me. In fact, I was enjoying every moment of his anger toward me. With the alpha king beside me, I was untouchable. "That's not funny, Your Grace," Alpha Wade said. "I valued my slaves."Smirking, I took a small bite of the watermelon in my hand. Valued my ass. If Alpha Wade said he valued his position and power, I would believe him. But not the slaves. If he did, he would never punish us unjustly. He would never imprison us and let us starve for a maximum of three days so that we would learn our lessons.Alpha Wade made me sick. I wanted to kill him at this instant. I was confident the slaves would dance a happy dance after that. I put the leftover on my plate, wiped the corner of my mouth, and smiled at him. "Kidding? I'm not kidding, Alpha Wade. I practically lived and grew

82. Uncovered

The alpha king was pulling a prank on me. That must be it. That was what I realized after he said he liked me. There was no way that he was over with Zenith. My mind wouldn't accept that impossible thing to happen. And why would he like me, to begin with? There was nothing extraordinary about me. I was a slave without a drop of noble blood. I would be a speck of dirt on his throne, and there were a lot of women with royal blood surrounding him.But that is not the kind of man he is, River, my mind said. Which was right. He had chosen Zenith, an enslaved person, as his fated mate, and there was also a chance he would choose another enslaved person. I patted his coat while laughing when I recovered from my shock. "You did not believe me.""Because it's unbelievable, Your Majesty."He was immobile for one second. "It's not."My mind could not accept it. I wanted to see his face and verify if he was telling the truth or not, but I was scared of what I might see. "I did not smell an

83. Drunk

My strength gave in and released Alpha Erik’s collar. “Are you sure about that?” I mumbled. I did not know if I was happy or not if it was Zenith. He nodded. “The resemblance was uncanny. You could pass as sisters, River. Or she can be your mother. She was quite young but could be your mother.”Zenith’s face, as I imagined, came into view. Zenith as my mother? And we both were mates of the alpha king? What kind of sick joke was that? No.It was early to conclude. I needed proof. What if I ask the alpha king about Zenith? Will he answer my questions? “You’re getting paler, River. Are you okay? Do you want me to stop?” I inhaled deeply. “No. Continue, Alpha Erik. What happened next?” Alpha Erik sat on the chair. “When her pursuers nearly caught her, she had no choice but to leave you behind. In the hope of maybe saving you? And then, after securing you safe in the river, she was gone. After that, I called Father.”Whether it was Zenith or not, one thing was for sure. Whoever carr

84. You Belong to Me

I know Alpha Erik, and I did nothing wrong. The man lost his balance and took all the fall, but the alpha king's scrutinizing eyes made me feel I was at fault and deserved his angry stares at us. “Your Majesty,” I mumbled to myself. The alpha king's eyes shifted back to the table and saw the bottle of wine and our three empty glasses. His mood was getting more sour as the moments passed by. “Did you celebrate something? Or is it your upcoming union?”Union? He had a hyperactive imagination right now. With clumsy moves, I scampered away from Alpha Erik. "Your Majesty. It's not what you think," I explained, my words still slurred. Damn it.How would I convince him if I was drunk?Alpha King Maxxwell folded his arms in front of his chest. "I was looking for you earlier when you suddenly disappeared beside me. Only to find you with your ex-mate. I wondered what the two of you had talked about, River. Or maybe I will take my leave so that you will continue what you haven’t finished.

85. I Felt Betrayed

I lost track of time and how much I slept when my back hit the bed. When I awakened, it was already midnight, precisely three o'clock. I patted the side where the alpha king usually slept, but it was already cold. There was a high chance the alpha king never entered the room after I arrived. Sitting, I roamed around and listened to the surroundings. It was dead quiet. The alpha king was nowhere to be found. I hopped out of bed and was halted by a headache. It felt like my head would split open. Damn it. It was because of the drink. I should have never let myself be swayed by that expensive wine. Took about having the lowest alcohol content for the werewolves, only to find it was a scam.I tried to remember all the scandalous things I did while drunk. Until…Images of what had happened at the library resurfaced—our passionate kiss. The alpha king's hands are on my waist—his erotic voice against my ears.My cheeks felt hot, as if I was being boiled. I fanned myself. I did leave

86. Midnight

Lady Juliana grabbed the alpha king's hands and put them in her chest, forcing the man to knead her breast.How much will she lower herself to get Maxxwell's attention?In all fairness, the alpha king did not take advantage of the woman and tried to free his hand.Still not aware of my presence, Lady Juliana said, "This body is all yours, Your Majesty. Take it this instant. I don't care."Disgusted, I walked faster, with my heart hammering against my chest."Lady Juliana. Think of your royal status!" Maxxwell growled. A single tear escaped from the woman's eyes, and it looked like a pearl against the darkness. The woman continued to attack Maxxwell, using her lips. My breathing became labored.Jealousy sprang to life. Not mine. Perhaps it was from Sunflower. The need to protect the alpha king from Lady Juliana's evil plan was stronger. My hand shook. The need to pull out her hair (despite her royal status) became stronger than ever. When I was only a few inches from them, the

87. Darkness

Lady Juliana’s face tightened. “Are you threatening me, Alpha Erik?”Alpha Erik shrugged his shoulders. “It depends on how you understand my statement, milady.”The woman’s face curled. “Do it, then. Tell your Father about what happened here, and I will tell him you secretly met Dog Servant behind his back,” she challenged. “Who do you think will he take a side? You or me?”The alpha king rubbed his eyes. It was nearing dawn, and we still had not sorted this issue. Fine with me. I already slept a couple of hours, anyway. "Why don't we settle down, everyone?" the alpha king suggested.I whipped my head toward Maxxwell's direction. Using our min link, I said, 'Settle down? After I saw you kissing Lady Juliana? No one will sleep unless we solve this issue.' He stared at me with wide eyes, shocked at my tone. He was the alpha king, and no one below him had snapped at him except me. ‘Do you have something to say, Maxxwell,’ I asked, using his given name. The alpha king looked at me wit

88. Did I Like the Alpha King?

I knew it. Why would I be expecting something else? Denaro and the alpha king were sewn in the same cloth. Why would the beast swear his allegiance and choose me in the—'I swear my loyalty to you, My Queen.'I stilled. 'You will? What if Maxxwell has a different opinion?'I threw my gaze at our surroundings. Despite grabbing the beast's attention, the darkness persisted. The alpha king was still in a trance. His thirst for blood was overpowering, making me dizzy the longer I spent my presence in his mind.Everything felt evil. As if I entered the devil's mind. Entering Maxxwell's mind should be illegal. I was not allowed to do this since his mind was sacred, forbidding anyone to enter. If it was another person, Denaro had long killed me on sight.I was lucky he knew me at first sight and recognized the mating bond. 'My Queen, I am his master, and he will follow me,' he answered with a smug expression. I smiled, satisfied at his answer.'Do you vow that you will choose me if Zeni

89. Zenith?

"I-I'm not saying anything like that, Maxxwell."He gave me a throaty grin which made my heart skip a bit. Damn it. Why did an alpha king look this dashing? It would be better for my heart if he looked like a toad right now. Maxwell was dangerous for my heart. "Better."I blinked a couple of times. "What?""You can say my name without scrunching your nose.""Yeah? What about it?"In a blink of an eye, his face was dangerously close to me, and I could smell his breath and be mesmerized by the color of his eyes. "I like it."My heart hammered against his chest. "You like me?""I said I like how you say my name. But I also like you, River."Maxxwell brushed my cheeks using his fingertips, and as if my face had a mind of its own, I leaned to his touch. Sparks flew between us. Sunflower howled in the background while ordering me to kiss Maxxwell. And boy. I was tempted to do it. His lips were plump and kissable. As if it was inviting me to take a bite. A forbidden fruit. That was wha

90. Betrayal

Betrayed.That was what I felt now as I saw the alpha king run inside right at the mention of Zenith's name. Without remembering, I was with him that it was me whom he had just promised of my proclamation as his queen.Maxxwell made a promise. Denaro vowed that he would choose me even though Zenith would be alive. Hope crumbled right in front of me. I looked away.I should have known. All along, it was still Zenith on his mind. Nobody else. No matter what I do, no one will choose me in the end. 'Go after him, River!' Sunflower begged. 'Don't let him see that woman! It is we that Maxxwell loves. He said he liked us, didn't he? So please…run after him. Go after him!'I inhaled deeply as I struggled to maintain my composure. Funny how I could stand still and did not cry, just like how Sunflower was crying now. It hurt me to see her like that. It was not the Sunflower I knew. 'Sun. If someone wants us, we don't have to beg for that person to stay,' I said, trying to coax her. 'Let's
