All Chapters of Claiming Back His Throne: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

[Cora] With green hair and eyes, the gold-colored dress chosen by Mom and Aunt Rhiannon made me look perfect. I stared at my reflection in the mirror with pride. Unfortunately, Axel wasn’t here to see it. I walked confidently towards the venue of the big celebration. Dad walked with Mom ahead of me while Garrett and Tyra had already left. They were in charge of the final preparations for the event. Orso whistled as he looked at me from head to toe, as did our colleagues. They could join the event but still carry out security duties as usual. I was on leave. So I could escape from my primary task for a while. “How could you look so perfect when you’re going to be a mom?” Orso teased as he wrapped his hand around my shoulder and kissed my head. “Alpha Axel is so damn lucky!” “Oh, stop. Your mate was perfect when she was having your firstborn.” I replied, looking at the woman beside him. “Well, he loves to compare me to you because I never react,” said Maeve, his wife and my best fr

Everyone sat on the available sofas near the bed. Garrett moved chairs from the kitchen counter as an extra seat. I sat next to Axel, not wanting to be away from him after a day of not being together. Both his parents were watching me intently. We’d met on a few occasions but never had long conversations. A warrior like me rarely interacted with werewolves of the upper ranks. My conversation partners were usually fellow warriors. Although I didn’t memorize their faces, I knew each Alpha’s reputation. It was always a topic we secretly discussed among warriors. Scarlett Sky Pack was fortunate to have Alphas and Luna, who cared about their people and had good relationships with leaders from other packs. Uncle Carwyn, Aunt Rhiannon, Dad, and Mom sat quietly after an emotional reunion with the friends they thought were gone. Maddox didn’t want to miss any more news. I was still surprised he brought our parents to this place to talk to Axel. “We can’t waste any more time. So, as soon as

He moved so fast that I had trouble dodging his attacks. I couldn’t underestimate the power of an Alpha when he was angry or had a strong desire to kill. He was far superior to me because he attacked using his wolf form.But he forgot one thing: I was an Alpha, too. I didn’t just sit in the office taking care of administration, forgetting about physical exercise. I never spent a day without exercising or practicing martial arts. Ryder was still in hiding, but he and I were just as strong.Egor continued to furiously attack me, not giving me a chance to do the same. Failing to hurt me with his punches and kicks, he grew angrier and more impatient. His attacks started to go awry and miss.I took advantage of the opportunity by finding an opening in his every attack. I didn’t give him light blows but a powerful force to conserve energy. I didn’t want to spend too much time throwing soft punches.Once he was exhausted, I attacked him with a vengeance. My fist hit his jaw, his neck, and th

After cleaning myself up in the bathroom, I hurried to follow The King to the meeting room. I couldn't possibly meet people in such a shabby state. The man's invitation was surprising, but I was happy to hear their report with him. The team he'd appointed turned out to be quite a lot, five people in the room besides the two of us and an advisor. They turned at once when I entered and looked at me and The King in confusion. "Please sit down," The King said, pointing to a chair at his side. I complied by approaching the spot. "Well, please start the report." I didn't expect The King to wait until I arrived to start the meeting. I thought they had finished reporting and were discussing the next step. I felt warmth fill my chest. My father thought I needed to be here. One of the men reported on the contents of the medicine and all the potions the Queen had been taking. I recognized some of the substances they mentioned. It was amazing. The Queen survived after years of drinking poison.

[Axel] I clawed at the palace terrace floor in pain. My whole body was churning with anger, blood boiled, knowing that someone dared to hurt my partner again. My beloved Cora. I knew our arrival here would open a chance for the enemy. But I didn’t expect Garrett and all those people could not keep their word. Everyone had failed to keep their promise to look after my Cora. My parents were also wrong to keep me here a day longer. I should have been there with my Cora. ‘Elric! Control your emotions!’ I heard the King’s voice through the mind link, but I didn’t care. ‘Cora is hurt, and I will lose her!’ I raged. ‘Don’t tell me to control my emotions!’ ‘You can’t shapeshift now! Control yourself!’ he ordered again. 'I don't care! I just want to help my Cora right now!' I let Ryder take control and shift. 'I'll be back faster with Ryder!' 'You haven't learned to control your new form yet, Son!' the man said worriedly. I felt the pain again as my whole body adjusted to Ryder's new fo
