All Chapters of Married to the alpha king, pleasured by his son : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

~Karen~I tossed and turned in my bed, my mind running wild with the images of the tragedy that was supposed to have happened by morning.Storme, lifeless and all cold, the palace in mourning. And Theo... Would he cry? Would he grieve for her the way one should grieve for a lost mate?I scoffed at the thought. Probably. He was foolish like that, wasting his emotions on someone who had no right to them.I rolled onto my back, my eyes fixed at the sparsely designed ceiling above me. How will I react when I receive the news of her death in the morning? Should I scream? Maybe throw myself onto the floor and wail like a heartbroken sister?“Yea, I should probably practice before I sleep.”With a satisfied smirk on my face, I adjusted my expression appropriately and began my wailing practice. My lips trembled, my eyes welled up. I even let out a choked sob for posterity.“Yes,” I whispered, swiping the tears that dropped on my cheeks. “That’s perfect. I’m a natural at this.”It had taken ju

~Storme~The moment I stepped out of the women’s only hall, I knew that something was off. There was a strange heat crawling up my skin, a bad sensation that had nothing to do with the mourning ritual, or Karen’s fake display of grief.It was the way she had insisted on serving refreshments even when it wasn’t the rule of the kingdom. It had been suspicious, but I had played along, watching her just as she watched me.“I should have refused to drink that beverage,” I muttered, “What if it was poisoned?”But I felt fine. Besides, Grace wouldn’t let me take anything that would be harmful to me. That thought alone calmed me down.A small part of me wanted to believe that Karen was just a desperate fiancée trying to reclaim a man who had never been hers to begin with. It could be that, or it could be that she was just innately dangerous.“I really should be careful around her. She gives me bad goosebumps.”I was still trying to process the day’s events when a strong hand gripped my wrist

~Karen~“I’m so sorry, My Lady, please forgive me.”I glared down at the shivering mess in front of me, my fists clenched so hard that my nails dug into my palms.The back and forth was becoming tiring. How difficult was it supposed to be to carry out a simple task? My patience was already slice thin, and would snap at any time now.It’s already been two days since my encounter with that slimy, pretentious, unfaithful bitch. She was supposed to be dead by now. At the very least, she should have been on the floor, writhing in agony, gasping for breath as the poison works through her veins. But she was still here, alive. Untouched. Walking around the palace like nothing had happened.And Grace… Grace stood before me with her head bowed, her body trembling like a pathetic leaf caught in the wind. Was she such a loyal dog who can’t bear to bring harm to her owner?“And why should I forgive you?” I asked, slamming my hand on the desk, the thud sound echoing throughout the silence of my ro

~Storme~“Your Highness!”I glanced up to find an omega hesitantly peeking inside as she creaked the door open. I was surprised to see that she had managed to find me when I’d tried to hide myself in this place. I’d felt suffocated for some time, and decided that the best place for me to breathe would be in the library, sheltered from the world, tucked away between shelves lined with books that I loved more than anything. It gave me a sense of escape.“Is there a problem?” I asked, giving a reassuring smile when she lingered at the door without stepping in.She looked nervous, casting quick glances behind her before finally coming in. She bowed low and leaned in. Her voice was shaky as she murmured something in my ear.I froze. My grip on the book tightened.“What?” I mouthed, not understanding anything that she had said.She nodded in confirmation, and I didn’t wait a second longer. Abandoning the novel on the table, I pushed to my feet and stormed out of the library, my pulse racing

~Storme~“What the hell!”I quickly scampered to a sitting position and flung the cover around my body. The girl who had barged into my room had her eyes down, and her hands clasped together in a beseeching manner.“I’m so sorry, Your Highness. I thought you’d be with the alpha king now, so I decided to come and arrange some things for tomorrow.”Hugging the cover tightly to my body, I glared at the girl. She looked unfamiliar, and I was so sure that she wasn’t a member of this Tribe because her scent was a bit different. Almost identical to Karen’s.“Who the hell are you, and who gave you the permission to barge into my room?”She looked up then, and I was able to see her features properly. Her eyes were sharp and eager, a round face that screamed innocence, and an attitude that I couldn’t decipher yet.“My name is Mona. I’m the new maid that has been assigned to you.”That explained the scent. Karen had really gone ahead to make do on her plans, and the king had indulged her. Things
