All Chapters of The Alpha King's Curse: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

The red wolf didn’t shift to reveal her identity to her daughter. The last time he had spoken to Rebecca, she had been cryptic and explained a whole bunch of nothing. She’d wasted his time, and he was the gullible fool who had believed her. Protect her daughter? He was the one who needed protection from her!He had no interest in whatever she had to say now because Layla was on her own after she gave birth. She had been resourceful before he’d found her; he was sure she would do the same after. And now she knew about their world, she would know what was happening to her when the changes didn’t go away.Besides, she had her mother following her. She would be fine.He looked away from the wolf to look at Layla and found she was looking at him as if she had seen an alien.“Your time is up. Let’s go,” he growled and started walking back where he had come.“Wait!” Layla said, scrambling off the rock. “Can you...? Did you...?”He didn’t answer her, but she didn’t chase after him as he had

Layla ignored the pain in her chest as she watched Jackson walk away.He had been like that every morning, the only time she saw him. Since he had taken her for that walk, he had kept his distance as he had said he would.She’d never been more miserable in her life.She had never needed or relied on a man since her mother had left and her dad had started neglecting them, so she couldn’t understand why she felt so attached to Jackson in the first place. Why would she be miserable just because she hadn’t spoken to him in weeks?But on top of that, a big ball of anger was sitting on her chest, waiting for him to come close enough so she could unleash it. How could he just walk away after what had happened on that walk? He had seen that red wolf; she knew he had. He’d looked right at it, and when he had talked about taking her back to her cell, he’d angered the wolf and stepped back from it. He had also probably seen it the first time, which explained his strange behaviour. He’d let he

Layla turned away from the closed door to look at her sister. That hadn’t sounded like an employer/employee conversation, and by the look on Brit’s face, she had already figured that out.“Is he forcing you to sleep with him?” Brit asked straight away.“What? No!”There had been no force whatsoever, even if, in her head, she had been against it. “Then why are you dressed like this? You look different. Your hair, your face, everything. You look like he’s had you polished up and dressed up, so he won’t be embarrassed to be seen with you.”“Don’t be ridiculous,” she snorted. “Then why did it look and sound like you and Mr. King were arguing like lovers?”She sighed and walked back towards her sister. Britney was too observant at times. If she had been the one taken by Jackson, she would have figured things out within a day.“Why don’t we clean this pigsty up first so we can relax and talk properly?”“I don’t want you to clean for me. You clean all day for Mr King if I’m to believe what

“Shall I bring you a drink from the bar, sir?”Jackson looked up from the newspaper in his hands to find Miss Roberts hovering over him. He had seen her at the front desk when he had walked into the lobby, and her anxiety was through the roof. Did she know that she had put herself in a dangerous situation? And if she did, why was she risking it? What was she hoping to achieve by the ambush she was trying to set up?“Are you working in the kitchen, too, these days?” he asked.“I’m just being hospitable, sir, since I’m on my break,” she answered with a smile. He could feel the hostility in her tone. It made him wonder if this was the real her and she’d had an ulterior motive when she tried to get close to him. Had she been trying to get information out of him all this time?“Instead of getting me a drink, maybe you can arrange for someone to do the work I pay them for in my suite,” he said dismissively. “Unless you want me to fire all of you and start afresh?”Andrea’s eyes widened.“

Jackson lowered his head to hers and waited to see if she would turn away. She needed to. Something told him there would be no turning back this time. But if she pushed him off, that could kick some sense into his head. If she reminded him how much her human side wanted to leave him, he wouldn’t have to break his word to himself. He wouldn’t have to fall into the trap again. But Layla’s breath hitched, and her lips parted. He could see the fire in her eyes as lust poured off her in waves that wiped out any other emotion she had been feeling. “Do you know what it does to me when you challenge me, my little mate?” he whispered when his lips were a hair’s breadth away from hers. “I swore I would stay away from you. Stop me now, Layla, because this won’t end well for either of us.”Layla didn’t push him away. Her beautiful glowing eyes fluttered closed as she leaned into him and put her mouth on his. And just like that, the hole in his chest disappeared. His dead heart started to bea
