All Chapters of The Alpha's Bride: Love, Hate and Desire: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

At interval, terror seized me. Everyday it felt like I was walking on thin ice and when I tried to take my mind off things, my heart constricted in a painful manner that forced me back to reality. In the few moments when my thoughts weren't plagued with those of Juliet, I thought of my father. How our lives down spiralled from a hundred to a startling zero was something I could not wrap my head around. Now that I'd confirmed Ariel was safe and healthy, I wondered if I should not have stayed back and ensured I found Juliet. I was sure Roseline and the others did a good job but my mind couldn't be put at ease since I wasn't there to complete the search myself. Now that I had lost my one chance to go into the human realm, I regretted my hasty decision. I should have taken a bit of time to plan and strategize before diving there head first. What if Juliet was still trapped in there somewhere unable to find her way home? What if she was left for dead with only a few hours window on h

There are many ways to die and this is one of it. As somebody intelligent once put it, "Dying might be easier than living, but when it comes down to it, it's often easier to just live." That intelligent person was me and I'll explain shortly. Killing Ariel wasn't my agenda, at least not right now. But making her lose the baby and maybe a leg too was definitely what I was after. Ariel was a wolf and a resilient one at that, a car accident like this wasn't enough to take her out. I turned off my engine ever so slowly and then got out of my car. Ariel's car sat against a tree in the far distance, overturned. It was a beautiful sight, really and if I had a camera, I'd have taken pictures. I strutted over to the mess and pulled open the door on her side. The windows had all gotten shattered from the impact. "Ariel. Ariel, wake up." I called letting the desperation I did not feel seep into my tone. She was bleeding from her head and from the way her left hand hung loose, I was sur

My head throbbed. I was incredibly grateful that I was alive and so was the baby but as much as I did not want to admit it, I was scared. And my fear made me irrational. I did not want to be with people but I also did not want to be left alone. I hated that Xavier was leaving me here alone and I hated myself for having such a thought. "While I'm gone, please stay put." Xavier said. He was standing in front of the mirror combing his hair. "I don't like your tone." I snapped. Granted, the accident was partially my fault but it was unfair that he was treating me like a baby. Also, he made it sound like I lacked the ability to stay out of trouble, like I was stupid. He cast a quizzical look at me and chuckled. It was the first time I had seen something close to a smile on his face in the past weeks. I might have smiled back if I wasn't so irritated. "Why are you picking a fight?" "I'm picking a fight? You just told me to stay put like I have itchy feet." I replied. He stoppe

I exhaled. I squeezed Juliet's charm tightly in my hand because it made me feel better, because it was the only thing that made sense right here and right now. I looked at Sean. His eyes she had watered and his mouth was still as wide open as it had been five minutes ago. In all the years we had worked together, I'd never seen him this close to tears. But it was understandable. These fallen men had been his brothers and friends. They had trained together, laughed and eaten together. He was my right hand man but he had never forgotten his roots. I hated seeing Sean this way but more than likely anything, I hated the feeling of defeat that had taken over me. Six of my guards lying on the ground before me, dead. Not one had even survived whatever senseless massacre this was, therefore no one could relate what had truly happened. "These guards found Princess Juliet's charm in the woods." I looked to my side, a bit startled. Sean had apparently gotten over his shock and was now t

I concealed a wide grin. No more was I playing it safe. From here on out, it was a full on war. "What happened?" I asked Seth while simultaneously reaching out to stop Ariel from collapsing unto the floor. Talk about a drama queen. Seth shook his head. "I'm not sure." More tears threatened to spill out of his eyes as he spoke and he cleared his throat multiple times to steady his voice. "Sean returned badly injured and bleeding. The other guard died in the cave. Sean is almost dead now and there's no way of getting him to speak." He said. Ariel pulled out of my hold and held her head with both of her hands. She felt shattered, I could tell. Not only was Juliet still missing, her husband's right hand man was dying. If only she could predict the magnitude of danger that was about to befall the royal family,she would be grateful for this moment. "The other guard... He– he was my brother." Seth choked out. Sorry, Seth but I had no choice. Maybe Sean should have chosen someone
