All Chapters of The Alpha King's Last Wish: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Soule, the Northern region."Get out of our town!" a man yelled, running towards the men with his jar of wine.The third slath launched at him, and with a swift swing of his dagger, he sliced the man in half. The tavern erupted with angry cries as the men rushed towards the four slath soldiers standing in the tavern, forgetting what Edward had just told them about the men.The slath ran head first into the attack, their daggers flying as they sliced and cut through the men standing by. The Wahala men succeeded in taking down one of the four men before they were all brutally annihilated in under a minute.The slath ran towards Edward, but he stretched his hand out to stop him on his step. He turned to Kialani and said, "I cannot hold him for long. You need to go."He saw she didn't want to leave his side, but she had to. "Your presence is interfering with my magic."She nodded, and without another word, she took to her heel, running as fast as she could from his presence. One of the sl

Ace had someone in mind he wanted to see, especially after everything that had happened. Two days ago, when the slave soldier had him trapped and was about to kill him, he thought about only one thing: not his life as a lord or even the kingdom of Wahala. He thought of Xoe, the princess of Klean, his mate.He feared he might never see her again, which wasn’t the end he saw for himself. He needed to see her now.He had to. In the past, he had told himself why he couldn’t see the woman he loved. One reason was that she was married, but now he didn’t care. He couldn’t hide away and make all those excuses anymore.Death could come at any time, and he would die a miserable man if he never got to say his goodbyes. He deserved that, at the very least.He stood in Bronxville, where he knew Xoe had moved after her marriage to Lord Niall. The last time he was here was three years ago, just after her marriage, and he saw her in the night robe.He knew what was next; she would give herself to her

The alpha king, the queen, and his elders are gathered in the deliberation room, standing around the large table, having a union discussion. Xavier had called all the elders together, and it would be their first meeting since the deaths and burials of Luna Elena, Sir Valerio, Sir Alex, Lord Jarold, and a few others. They spread out the map of the Wahala kingdom on the centre table, and everyone’s eyes are fixed on it as they mark out a division of the kingdom.In the wake of the attack three weeks ago, Xavier had given orders to have the strongholds of the four regions reinforced, just like the capital. Yet that didn’t feel like it was enough. They had strengthened themselves while waiting for the enemy to land on their shores.It didn’t feel right; why did they have to wait for the enemy when they had much more to lose? Xavier shared his thoughts with Mia, who agreed with everything he told her. She had been thinking the same thing.So, instead of getting bed rest as instructed by th

Edward felt satisfaction watching the ship burn, and he knew the next best thing to this would be to see Kailani and wrap his arms around her. Their return took two days, and Edward kept a close eye on Koz and Xavier. Koz because he believed the alpha was still mentally unstable, and Xavier because he knew his brother was so far from fine. It was his duty to get them back safely. Xavier will return to his mate, Mia, his son Lyon, and his unborn child, while Koz will return to his daughter, Cara.Their victory at sea would give them an advantage. There was no telling if they would win this war, but they could hope for the best.They returned to shore excitedly, and searching through the happy faces gathering around to welcome them, he found Kailani's. She stood farther back, and unlike the rest of those gathering to receive them, she didn't look thrilled. This sight made his heart sting weirdly. Usually, Kailani would have been the happiest to see him, yet now she wasn't.He walked thr

Edward walked into the healing room, where the healers and physicians treated Xavier. They told him to wait outside, and he didn’t argue with them; they knew better.It was their routine to examine him and administer the necessary treatment. In the last few days of their voyage on the sea, he didn’t have any of that treatment. Being able to stand after that was still a miracle.After half an hour of waiting, the door opened, and the three physicians and healers walked out of the healing room and toward him.“How is he?” he asked.“I think you should ask me that, don’t you think?” Xavier’s voice came from inside, and the healers bowed their heads and took their leave.Edward stepped into the healing room and saw Xavier dressing himself up. “I didn’t know you had to strip for the treatment."“The shadow sickness attacks all parts of my body, brother; it is only proper that every part of me be treated for sustenance,” Xavier answered.Edward nodded. “My bad, I didn’t know.”He shrugged.
