All Chapters of My Lord Alpha: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Wayne reclined on his side on the bed in his room.He was knackered to a great extent and wanted to fall asleep after the heavy dinner. However, he could not seem to catch a wink of sleep.The past few days had been grueling on his part. The search for her, the pursuit after her captor, the Jubokko tree assault, the battle with the Lamia shapeshifter, the visit to the council of elders, the excruciatingly painful journey into the Hade's lair, the altercation at the mating festival on the misty plane. Lastly and the best part of it all, the return of his beta and second in command, his most trusted associate, his one and only best friend.He should feel at peace that he had overcome all obstacles, retrieved his mate from her captor unharmed. Also, he accomplished the near impossible feat of accessing the tree of life, now the hinterlands would be healed and his plane would be whole again.He should be feeling a sense of satisfaction, yet something gnawed at his conscience. Like there w

"My heart?" he let out a bitter laugh "Far from it, I would not let myself get carried away. I have an end goal; nothing can thwart my plans.""As your beta, I would agree with you to do what's best for your plane and pack. As a friend, I would tell you not to make a mistake you may regret later on," Rojan advised."Regret? What's there to regret about?" he harrumphed."You're clearly falling for her, why do you fight it?" Rojan pointed out."I am not," he countered, then scoffed "What is there to fall for? She acts with no dignity whatsoever. Is it dancing half-naked with a total stranger and allowing him the pleasure of kissing her or striking my face with her fist?""Wait, what?" Rojan did a double take, "She slapped you?"Wayne paused, that had come out involuntarily.Rojan threw his head back and laughed, his booming laughter bouncing off the walls.Wayne put a hand to his temple, why had he let that slip off his tongue? It only showed that he was still clearly pissed at the kiss

Zipporah smirked to herself as she descended the stone steps.The assembly had come to a close and they were all free to go. As she walked down the steps that wound around the walls and led to the lower part of the fortress, to the base level of the dungeons. Her lips curved into a wry smile.For a moment there, she thought she had been caught.Thanks to her quick response, she had shifted the blame to the nymphs. Removing herself from close scrutiny. It would have been a catastrophe if he found out she was the supposed thief.A blow to her ego.Howls echoed through this level from different creatures she had captured with the help of Waylon's men and locked up in these dungeons, to use their blood for her dark magic."Silence!" she snapped at them, her voice dripping with malice.The cries immediately ceased.She began to walk from one cell to another, the creatures scurried into the depth of the cell when they saw her glower at them. One cell held a griffin, another held a chimera, a

Candice felt awash with satisfaction.It felt good to put smiles on the face of someone.She wished she could gift her more, but the Head of staff would not let it slide. He was in charge of the domestic funds and ran the house on a strict budget, only making adjustments if and when directly instructed by his Lord Alpha. She would definitely gift Everette, Jason, Jordan, and Sally a little token before she said goodbye to them forever."What are you intently thinking about?" Bernice asked."Nothing interesting," Candice murmured as she walked over to join her on the couch. She had donned a simple green dress, dotted with white polka dots."You have been frequently spacing out these days, tell me what's on your mind?""I-I just wish that my life wasn't so complicated. Like this was some sort of dream, I was not in a parallel universe. I would just wake up and everything would be back to normal," her voice was strained, with all the pent-up emotions raging within her."Why would you wan

"I am busy, what is it?" Wayne drawled, going to take a sit in the corner of the room."I have been trying to talk to you for over a week now, but you keep rebuffing me with the same response "I am busy, let's talk later," she mimicked.He let out an exasperated sigh "Okay, I do not have a lot of time right now. I am here, you may speak."You may speak.How annoying, like she needed his permission to speak or express herself. She was not here to beg his permission; she was here to cut a deal. A smooth negotiation at best, and a rough haggle at worst."I wanted to speak to you about something," she began.When he saw her pause, he waved her on impatiently."You actually owe me a wish and I am here to collect on it," she stated.She saw his eyes narrow in a suspicious appraisal, then he linked his fingers on his lap and cocked his head to the side "Go on."Unsure of what his body gesture signified, she went on "I want you to allow Everette to go into fabrics and designs, to go to fashio
