Semua Bab Mated To The Alpha King: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Liana's POV Nothing could accurately be used to describe how furious I was right now. I could bet my entire existence that the very word that would fit into how I felt right now, hadn't been invented yet. Was that a good thing? We were just going to have to wait to find out. Anger and frustration coursed through my veins, and I honestly felt I was going to burst into a million and one pieces of I didn't find a way to let it all out very soon. I wasn't a particularly violent person, but I think everyone could agree that at this point, my anger was valid. Kieran. Red clouded my vision as he made his way to my mind immediately. It was strange how he could elicit any kind of emotion he wanted from me, all he needed to do was play the right cards. He knew exactly what he needed to do to make me smile, make me picture myself underneath him or riding him till we both landed on cloud nine, and to make me Infuriated. Right now he had certainly crossed a lie because I was more than m

Liana's POV The night air was cool, and I found myself drifting in and out of sleep. A small wave of cold rushed up my skin, but for each wave that coursed through my skin, Kieran's arms was there to offer me the warmth I never knew needed. Against my better judgement, I found myself leaning closer into him. He was ripped and muscular, I always knew that, but tonight was different. Tonight, he radiated a king of warmth I never be was capable of giving. Perhaps it had everything to do with the fact that he was carrying me like I didn't weigh a single penny. I knew how many breaks I had to take before I arrived at the warehouse, and here he was, still going like he was running on some sort of extra energy. I wasn't a sorcerer, but I knew he'd spent more energy dealing with those criminals. From the state they were in, I was sure he didn't spare them, so how was he still standing and going strong? The rest of my thoughts were put on hold the moment I sighted the palace. The guard

Liana's POV Kieran held my gaze for the next couple of seconds, but no matter how hard he stared at me, I couldn't bring myself to figure out the kind of thoughts that we running through his mind. It didn't even help that his eyes were unmoving, and he had a stoic expression on his face. “Sir?” Serena called again from the other side of the door. In fact, if she hadn't spoken again, I would have totally forgotten that she was still even out there in the first place. “Are you still there?” “You should open it.” I mouthed the words to Kieran and he rolled his eyes in response. If there was one thing I was sure of, it was the fact that he didn't see her interruption as a welcome distraction. If anything, and if he could, I was a hundred percent sure he would send her back, without having to see his guest. “Someones waiting for you.” “I don't care.” I could swear I heard him murder under his breath. After what seemed like forever, he finally opened the door. “Good morning, sir”

Liana's POV For the next couple of moments, I couldn't bring myself to speak. Tension crackled in the air, and I wasn't sure anything was going to be able to help dissipate it. In fact, the more silence reigned between us, the more the tension crackled between us. It was suffocating, but there was also one thing it was not; distracting. No matter how weird things were, it didn't take my mind off what had just happened. Kieran had tumbled in here a while back looking all mad and furious, like someone has let out a bag with everything that could ever make him mad in one go. I knew I should have kept quiet, but I couldn't bring myself to do so, and what did I get in return?He fucking yelled at me. “You don't have to be rude, you know,” I found myself saying. “ I was just trying to figure out why you're so mad and if there's anything I can do to help….”“I didn't ask you, did I?” His response came quicker and sharper than the last time. If there was anything different from his la

Liana's POV I had never been a fan of tight spaces, but this one was a tough nut to crack. My breath hitched in my throat, and no matter what I did, it just wasn't enough to dissolve the huge lump that had formed at the back of my throat. My chest tightened, and if I didn't find a way to expand my lungs soon, I was definitely going to pass out. Kieran's scent wasn't helping matters either. It was intoxicating I know, but pressed against him without a minute's worth of space wasn't something I saw happening at all. When I woke up this morning, I had a clear plan; avoid Kieran for as long as possible, and it seemed to have been working, until it didn't. When I hid behind the pillar, the last thing I expected was for him to spot me. How the hell had even done that? I'd made sure I hid properly, made sure I didn't make a sound that would betray my presence and….A low grunt was all it took to pull me back to the present. I snapped out of my thoughts, and raised my eyes to Kieran's
