All Chapters of The Alpha King's Last Healer: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Henrietta I let out a sigh of relief, pulling my hand out of hers as I glared at her for embarrassing me in that manner and she lowered her head while I turned to face the throne where my father sat. "I see nothing but false allegations on the basis of conjured stories and mind tricks because I went out to get some air and returned after about twenty minutes." I said in a defensive voice even though it was a lie. There is no way I'm letting my father know that I have been seeing Richard while he has intentions of making a union between Gwendolyn and Richard. "May I speak, if it pleases the King." The court physician said as she approached us and my father nodded, "I and a few other physicians have examined the body and to be very honest, your majesty," Geneva said looking from Richard to me. "Go on," my father urged her and she nodded. "It was not done by a werewolf, your majesty," she said, "Rather, a vampire had been let loose in the woods and I could tell from the deep fangs o

Richard“You are a princess after all and you should know better.” She deadpanned.It all made sense now. Two nights ago, it was both of them, they were the ones I saw sucking the life out of that lady and those red eyes belonged to none other than Gwendolyns’ yet they tried to blame it on me which must have been Nemiuehs' idea.Nemiueh was the type of woman to make a plan,get you into it and abandon you in it. That was who she was. It either benefitted her or benefitted her, anything outside this was not going to happen. She wouldn't let it and Gwendolyn, she might have just seen a red flag but would she make good use of it, I doubt."My father would prosecute me in front of everyone." Gwendolyn yelled in frustration."And your sister too." Nemiueh chimed in, like adding dry wood to a burning flame. "Especially Her!!" Gwendolyn screamed, followed by a loud bang on the wall which shook the room and made the floor vibrate making me wonder what it was.Having heard enough, I figured th

Henrietta "Maybe my looks as well but I promise you, my intentions were not harmful in any way. It was ju…” He gulped and I brushed my thumb over his hand which was still intertwined in mine, a way of assuring him that he could say whatever it is that he wanted to say with a reassuring smile plastered on my face. “It's difficult, Henrietta,” He said in a sudden rage, “everyday being close to you, I am battling with myself and it's going to take a lot of self control to keep my actions in check, you know?” he asked through a nervous laughter and I scurried my eyes in confusion. “I don’t un…” “You won't be able to understand. '' he sighed, shaking his head sadly, “You won't, my love.” he said yet again and did those words have any effect on me? They more than did, my heart skipped a couple of beats and my body shivered as those words resounded in my ears. “That night in the woods, you…I would have marked you,” He explained, moving my hair away from my shoulder so that the bare skin

Henrietta It's been a few days since Gwendolyn strangely called off her wedding, which is something she has rubbed in my face a thousand times. The news of the cancellation has spread round the kingdom like wide fire and even though many were excited about it, they dare not show it. I was relieved. Happy that she wouldn't be getting married to the person who I find myself falling in love with and also her plans to ascend the throne has once again foiled. Whatever Richard had to do to make her admit it, I'll be forever grateful he did it. Smiling to myself, I picked up the last pie on the plate and took a deep bite, moaning into the taste of the food until I noticed that I was being watched. I gently took my eyes away from the pie to look in suspicion at the corner from which I felt a presence but there was no one there. "Show yourself!" I commanded but silence greeted me. Maybe I was thinking too much or it was just a moment's fear, I thought, shrugging it off as I continued wit

Richard The moon lit up the dark areas of the woods along with the torches, placed at almost every corner of the kingdom. I think ever since the incident the inhabitants of odyssey have gotten a lot more conscious and taken their security as their priority despite King Kenneth's assurance to ensure guards are placed at every corner of the palace. They honestly do not want to take chances, who would? I was outside my room, resting on the balcony while looking ahead while the cold night breeze brushed against my hair, kissing my face with their chills. The view is always beautiful from this place, I guess. Especially since I can see the waters from here too. “I guess I'm not the only one that loves the night when the moon shines the brightest,” I heard an annoying sharp voice say as they drew closer to me. I rolled my eyes without taking it off the view which I was mesmerized by, "It was actually getting better until you arrived," I spat, "What do you want?" I asked without sparing
