The Alpha King's Curse 16. We're Going To Make A Baby
Layla watched the nurse place a bandaid on her arm to stem the bleeding from the needle. It had little cartoon characters like it was meant for children. Was this a children’s hospital? Why had Jackson brought her here?She eyed the nurse suspiciously from under her lashes, which she probably didn’t need to do. The woman wasn’t paying her any attention. She was flustered and acting like a love-struck teenager because of the hulking presence in the room. It was a wonder she hadn’t stabbed her to death when she’d drawn her blood. “I’ll run this to the lab. The doctor will see you as soon as possible,” the nurse said. She said this directly to Jackson as if he was the one on the exam table. The nurse hadn’t addressed her at all the whole time she’d done her observations.But she had thrown her that cold look like everyone else she had met so far. Would they even treat her without bias like medical professionals were supposed to do? She didn’t think so. The nurse left the room, but not
The Alpha King's Curse 17. Are You A Screamer?
Jackson watched Laya take another step back and cursed the beast inside him. Cain was being a hypocrite.‘She’s mine,’ Cain growled.‘She’s a healthy young woman, and sex is natural. Of course, someone fucked her!’Cain growled again and tried to force himself out, but he shoved the beast back. He had lost count of how many women he’d fucked. They were all equally enjoyable, even if he forgot their names the next day. Cain loved to fuck. After ripping heads off in battles, it was his second favourite thing to do. Then in walked little Layla, who dared to admit that she wasn’t pure and the neurotic beast was ready to kill any man in the vicinity. His only options were to kill everyone or fuck Layla. There was no middle ground with Cain. All his plans went out of the window just like that so he could control his wolf’s murderous urges. “What... What do you mean?” Layla asked. “It’s the wrong time of the month, and I haven’t started taking the—”“Don’t lie to me, Layla,” he cut in as
The Alpha King's Curse 18. Insanity
Layla was still tingling as she came down from the most incredible high. She looked down at the face between her legs and met Jackson’s gaze.There was no coldness in his eyes this time. There was nothing but burning desire. Everything was happening too fast. Jackson was a perfect stranger, and she had already seen the coldness and anger in his eyes. But now he was looking at her as if he was the only woman in the world. The only one he wanted.Her mind whirled as she tried to remember why this was a bad idea, but all that had flown from her head the second he touched her. Her body was not her own anymore. She wasn’t herself. She could feel that; she could feel there was something different about Jackson. If she hadn’t known better, she would have thought someone had drugged her, but she hadn't eaten anything yet. But none of that seemed to matter as she watched the man she had been trying to get away from kiss the inside of her thigh.She responded to that kiss as if she hadn’t jus
The Alpha King's Curse 19. Mean Girls
Something wasn’t right. The place was too quiet. Layla didn’t know if this was a boarding house of sorts or a hotel, but she had seen more people around when she had been downstairs the first time. Now all she could hear was the sound of her beating heart.She walked down the last flight of stairs and eyed the front door. She knew she wouldn’t get far because of the distance to the front gate and hadn’t figured out what sort of security was around. “This way.”The girl walked towards a different hallway to the one she had gone down that morning. Okay, this definitely had horror movie vibes. It wasn’t happening. She stopped in her tracks and turned to walk back to the staircase. She might have been stupid with Jackson, but she wasn’t falling for this trick, no matter how much she wanted to get out of this place. She took only a few steps when someone grabbed her hair from behind. “What the hell?” she shouted as she fell backwards. Pain stung her scalp as they dragged her backwards
The Alpha King's Curse 20. It's Her, Isn't It?
Jackson looked up at the broken security camera perched high over his wall and the footprints leading from the wall and back over. Whoever it was hadn’t gone far. His defences were better than a wall and flimsy camera, and the suicidal wolf must have realised that and turned back. But the fact that he had even dared to try had Cain ready to rampage. Again.Rogues always tried to breach their boundaries, but Cain, as territorial as he was, always got excited because it meant he could go hunting. But now he was in a rage, just because his mate was within these walls and his over-protectiveness had gone into overdrive.And because he had refused to leave his mark on her.Pulling himself away from Layla before he’d bitten her had nearly killed him. He'd lost his head when he’d fucked her. He’d gone all-in, and she had taken all of it without inhibitions. Human or not, she had handled Cain better than anyone he had ever been with.And she’d loved it.She’d loved every second of it.He’d b
The Alpha King's Curse 21. Trust Issues
Layla opened her eyes and realised she was now in her bedroom prison. Dylan and those girls hadn’t killed her.A sense of relief flooded her body, and then she felt nauseated that she had ended up in that position in the first place. For two days in a row, her life had been in peril. How the hell had she ended up like this?She sat up gingerly so she wouldn't aggravate anything. Her head had hit the concrete pretty hard; she was surprised it wasn’t hurting more than it was. Even her ribs felt only slightly tender. There was blood on her hand from when she stabbed one of them, and despite everything, it made her feel horrible. She wasn’t a murderer. She only had weapons for self-defence but had never used them against anyone before. And those girls had been pretty messed up in the head, so she wasn’t sure she could blame them for what was happening. She tried to wipe the blood on her already ruined clothes but it was pointless. There was no saving them. With her meagre wardrobe, she w
The Alpha King's Curse 22. Hunting
Jax tracked the scents to one of the lounges. It was where the younger wolves liked to hang out after they’d finished training. He stood still at the door and listened to the loud, obnoxious conversations of teenagers who thought they knew better. Cassie was among them- Cassie and the two other wolves he had scented on Layla’s clothes.His fists clenched at his sides, but it wasn’t Cain’s anger he was reacting to. This was all him and the stupid bond. Layla’s emotions were all over the place, but the ones getting to him were the fear and the desperation, the same feelings he had felt when he’d gone for a run. Something had happened. Had she seen something? Or had Dylan lied to him about what had happened?His skin felt too tight, and his gums itched. Whatever the story was, Layla had been hurt. She wasn’t faking her emotions or the small bump on her head. Why hadn’t he seen that the moment he had walked into her room? Why hadn’t he checked on her after his run? He would have gotten t
The Alpha King's Curse 23. Long Live The King!
Jackson walked through the trees to the secluded guardhouse behind the training grounds. Dylan and Micah, Cassie’s father, followed behind. “Has he said anything at all?” Dylan asked.“He’s saying many things, but none of them make any sense. And he’s...” Micah stopped and sighed. “You’ll see for yourselves.”Jax looked back at the warrior with a frown. Micah had been the head warrior when his father had been the Alpha King, so he had seen and dealt with many dangerous and unusual things. What was he about to walk into that had made Micah so agitated?They walked into the guardhouse, and the warriors on duty were already standing on alert with their gazes lowered. He walked past them to the room at the back, where the hatch on the floor was already open.He could smell the prisoner from there. He smelled of the earthy scent of his wolf and then the pungent, unbearable scent of death and decay. It was the scent of dark magic. He’d had that scent stuck up his nose for a long time afte
