All Chapters of Capturing The Alpha King's Heart. : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

AQUAAs the sun settled into the sky, I looked up at the sky and wondered how long it normally takes for someone to change their behavior. My mate took less than a second after he came in me. Once his human consciousness took over, Gunnar rolled off me and retreated from me as fast as he could. The tightness of his jaw and the subtle clenches of his fists suggested his unhappiness, but I had no freaking idea what I did wrong. I mean, from what I saw, he definitely enjoyed the sex we had. So why was he frowning and refusing to meet my gaze?“We have already wasted another time here,” he said, his voice devoid of warmth as he picked up his shirt from the ground. The wolf was back again, standing near him as he picked up our torn clothes. I stared at the bonfire, which was now a bunch of ashes and charred wood, engrossed in my thoughts. I had no idea how this mating bond worked, but something about his distant behavior hurt me a lot. He threw his shirt at me and said, “We have to le

GUNNARBefore I ventured back into the middle of the forest, I decided to leave Edith behind to safeguard the truck and search for Aqua myself. But that left me slightly defenseless, because I had to navigate around my surroundings alone with my lack of vision. Still, it wasn't as hard as I'd thought because all I had to do was track down my mate's scent. Although I was born blind, I had grown somewhat dependent on the wolves I inherited from the former Alpha King at the age of 19. Before then, I had trained my other senses to help me survive in this harsh world. Taking a deep breath, I familiarized myself with the scents of the forest, letting the cold, damp air rush into my lungs. Aqua's scent also mingled along with the aroma of pine and earth surrounding me. Then I began to move with slow, deliberate steps, tracking her down. The sounds of birds chirping from a distance and the earth-shattering sounds of the animals racing through the forest entered my forest. My body stiffened

AQUA After his deep words of wisdom, Gunnar and I chatted a bit before I fell asleep. He told me a little about his true mate, Tia, who was a rogue wolf and the pack priestess's granddaughter. She died giving birth to Fawn a long time ago, but the pack priestess still missed her a lot. When I discovered how far the Wind Ridge Pack was from the Storm Fire Pack, I was grateful to Gunnar for getting a vehicle. Otherwise, I would have never been able to reach there for days, even in my wolf form. A few hours later, some gentle taps on my shoulder woke me up. “Wake up, Aqua.”“Huh?” I rubbed my eyes, a bit disoriented. “Have we reached the Storm Fire Pack?”“Yes, we have,” he replied. I leaned into his touch as he ran his hands through my hair. My heartbeat quickened when he closed the distance between us and brushed his lips against mine. A soft moan escaped my lips as I parted my lips, letting his tongue slip into my mouth and chase my sleep away. His manly scent wrapped around my se

GUNNARI felt it a bit later than I would have expected. The smile on my face vanished when pain exploded in my chest. I instantly searched for my mate in the room, but she was nowhere to be seen. She said she was going to the restroom, so I wondered what was taking her so long to return. Unless she decided to escape my pack. But that was impossible, right? We were good this morning until we reached the Storm Fire Pack. While I was aware that she low-key hated this place, I was assured of her willingness to cooperate in breaking this bond until now. Something must have happened when I had gone to change my shirt. “Gunnar, are you okay?” Hannah asked, her face filled with concern. “You look kinda pale and angry right now. Did something happen?”I ignored her and focused on the mate bond, trying to use it to track down Aqua's location. It shouldn't have been hard since female wolves were more susceptible to males' mating calls, especially alpha ones. But for some unknown reason, I

AQUAGunnar was such a jerk!I was here with the pack healer receiving treatment, yet he growled at me like I was in the amusement park having fun. Everything that happened in the forest suddenly felt like a dream, one that I wished that I would never wake up from.I missed his tender touches, his warm eyes, and his faint smile when he looked at me. Now I couldn't tell if I had truly done something to piss him off this time or if he had always been this way. Tears prickled at the back of my eyes as I nodded obediently, walking past him after I bade River good-bye. Since we arrived at the Storm Fire Pack, he had become more moody and dictatorial, and I couldn't stand it. When I reached the car, I grabbed the door handle to open the door when a hand suddenly slammed it shut again. The next thing I knew, Gunnar turned me around and trapped me with his body. “What the fuck is wrong with you, Aqua?” Gunnar's handsome face twisted with anger as he faced me. “How dare you mute the mate bo
