All Chapters of The Alpha King's Runaway Bride: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Elliott stepped into the throne room and found Zor’d standing there, waiting for him. It was barely six hours into the morning, and his appearance was uncalled for. Elliott’s breath tightened in his chest, and his hand balled into a tight fist.He stepped further into the throne room, and Zor’d turned around to see him, an emotionless look on his face.He stepped towards Elliott to speak, but before he could, Elliott punched him in the face. He staggered back a little before stopping himself. His hand lifted to his mouth, and he felt it bleed. “You didn’t have to take him!” He growled at him, his face turning red and his eyes glowing.Zor’d wiped at it and glanced up at Elliott, his eyes cold. “I didn’t choose, Mischief did.”“Fuck Mischief!” he yelled and spat on the floor in a show of disgust. “He was a child still in his mother; he was pure and didn’t harm anyone.”“The most effective sacrifice is from the pure.” Zor’d answered. Elliott’s hands balled into a tighter fist, but this

Lily’s eyes opened several hours later, and she was on the floor in the inner chambers, where Elliott had left her after choking her until she went unconscious hours ago. She helped herself up to sit down and pulled her legs together, laying her head on them. She didn’t want to think about anything, but she blamed herself for ending up in this situation.When he returned over a moon ago to take her from the east to the capital, she asked him why they were moving, and he told her because he was the new king of the kingdom. He told her his cousins had died at sea, and the alpha father had also succumbed to death on hearing the news about the fate of his sons. That the throne now belonged to the only living Ainsworth, and that was him. After they arrived at the palace, he revealed to her that he was also the son of the Alpha of Alphas and not his brother, like she and everyone else always thought. She couldn’t read him as well as she used to in the last few years after they became mates.

Mia stepped into the uppermost part of the High Tower and found Xavier staring out the window at the night sky filled with stars. She had asked around for him after going to their chambers at the estate and not finding him there. Then the priest told her he saw him walking towards the uppermost inn in the High Tower. Mia followed his directions, and here she was, in the same space as her husband.He had spent the whole day at the High Tower planning the strategic movements and strikes for the battle against Elliott, along with Alpha Koz, Sir Valerio, Sir Kole, and herself. They had done their best to find the best approach around the Black Cove, and after reaching the standpoint of victory, Sir Valerio and Alpha Koz took a third of the men of war and went ahead to prepare the battleground for tomorrow. Xavier stayed back, and he and the rest of the men wanted to wait for the allies they had requested from the kingdom of Klean before joining up with them on the battlefield. It was fifty

Edward raced through the woods as fast as his legs could take him, and Eai, Alpha Zayn, and Alpha Chado tried to keep up. He wanted to run faster, but he had to consider the strength of the others with him. Eai could keep up, but the others who were older couldn’t. Yes, they had feasted on the flesh of the guard after being released, but they were still far from recovering from the many months of being locked up and having their werewolf abilities suppressed.He didn’t know where he was running to, as the forbidden forest was a nightmare puzzle to solve, but they had to run. The two alphas and guard behind him trusted his judgement and ran behind him.Edward had been locked up for only a day, yet he felt as if it were longer. His magic was almost nonexistent, and he couldn’t feel it in his veins as he felt his blood. The presence of it was gone, and that made him vulnerable. Despite being a wolf, he had never relied on that alone. He had always relied more on his magic, and unless the

“He looks worse, and the king said dead or alive. Since he’s as good as dead, I might as well finish the job.” the guard said and stepped towards Alpha Zayn, but Zayn launched his limping self at the guard, growling loudly, and before the guard could fight him off, he thrust his claws into the man’s chest, seeking out his heart. As soon as his hand came in contact with the throbbing heart, he yanked it out, and the guard fell to the ground, choking on his blood. Alpha Zayn fell to the floor tired, and the guards ran over him to subdue him and Eai on the floor. “Take off his head!” A guard commanded. “Rip his heart out!” another said, his voice louder than the first. Suffocated and crushed by the weight of many on him, Zayn’s lashes fluttered, and his mind began wandering into oblivion. “That’s not how to fight fair, is it? Or is this how your coward of a king taught you to fight wounded men at a disadvantage?” Edward asked, stepping out from behind the trees. The guards on top of
