“Have you known I was still alive before these reports came out?” I asked him.He shrugged. “Not that it matters to you, but I've known since Lupinton. You smell just like the baby that failed.”“Then why didn't you claim me then?” I demanded. “If you knew, why scare me half to death and make it seem like the palace was coming after me?”“Because I had to be sure that I wasn't being manipulated by yet another unworthy woman. If you had known your heritage for your whole life and were simply trying to play me, then I would have needed to eliminate you. There's also another aspect to this that you don't seem to understand, which is that your presence as my daughter makes a mess of things between me and the current queen.”He sneered at me. “It also makes you the Queen's number one enemy. No Luna supports another woman's child to inherit what her own offspring ought to.”“But isn't the current Luna queen barren?”“You're finally catching on. You see how yet another woman has failed me.”
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 206: Saying Goodbye
The moon goddess laughed. “You're thinking too much about heavenly matters,” she said. “If the gods and goddesses combine our powers and our talents, fate can be altered. But it's not something we do frequently or at all for that matter. Because altering fate means that nothing will ever be the same again after.”“I don't understand.”“I know you don't,” she said. “Think of it this way. Right now, even though you can see a dozen different choices leading in a different dozen different paths if you make each one, you can still see where those paths lead.”“I guess,” I said hesitantly. “I just need to know which one to pick.”She nodded. “That's the problem. If I interfere with fate and change it, then you won't be able to see what's down any of those paths anymore, and neither will anyone else. Chaos will ensue, at least for a time. You don't wish to plunge creation into chaos, do you?”I sighed. “No. I guess not. I see what you mean, though, where it might take a while before enough d
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 207: Things Left Unsaid
“Kathy?” My voice shattered that awkward silence.“Yeah, I'm still here,” she said. “I’m just trying to wrap my head around all of this.”“I know the feeling.”“I think I've talked to you less than once a month. I feel out of the loop. I'm not entirely sure what to say to you anymore, especially not about something this big.”“That's not your fault,” I said. “Never, ever think that I didn't call you because you did anything wrong as my friend. You have always been amazing. But with everybody on my case about everything, I just couldn't risk leading them back to you. I hope you understand.”“Of course,” I understand, she said. “I've been worried sick about you for months now. Not that you needed to protect me like that. I’m a big girl and can handle trouble just fine. But I assumed that you didn’t call because you’re always protecting people like that. You weren't contacting me, and since there wasn't really anything that I could do to help you as it was, I decided to just follow along
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 208: Waiting for the Consequences
I woke to knocking on my door.“Just a minute,” I called, trying not to sound too sleepy.I couldn't tell what time it was, only that it was light outside. Who didn't put a clock in the bedroom?I sat up and stretched, then grabbed my phone to check the time. My goodness! Being pregnant was making me tired. It was almost nine.I climbed out of bed and put on my clothes from the night before. I hadn't even opened the closet. I didn't care to see whether it was empty, awaiting my things, or whether the king had given me clothes that he expected to see me in. Either way, the contents weren’t anything I wanted.I opened the door, prepared to face whatever punishment the king was going to dish out at me, and instead was greeted by a rough hug from Charles. He pressed kisses all over the top of my head, drinking in the scent of me.I pushed him away and then squirmed out and underneath his arms. “They let you come see me?” I gasped.“I didn't ask,” he replied. “As if they could stop me from
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 209: Time to Tell Charles
I made a face at Charles and scrambled for my clothing, yanking it on. Instead of getting dressed, he twitched back my covers and took a seat inside my bed, covering himself with the sheets.Someone pounded again, and I jerked open the door, surprised to find myself face the face with Theo. He didn't wait for an invitation, instead pushing me back inside by the shoulders and shutting the door behind him.The look on his face, I couldn't quite read, but it was intense.“What's going on?”Theo crossed his arms over his chest and eyed me. “What did you do, Elena?”I put my hands on my hips. “What do you mean ‘what did I do?’” I wanted to avoid having to tell him that I had sent the conversation between the king and me to Jasmine.The muscles in his neck twitched with tension. “They've arrested the king.”“What?” both Charles and I yelped at the same time.Theo gave a short nod. “So, I'll repeat myself,” Theo said. “What did you do?”I pressed a hand to my forehead, willing the room to st
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 210: The Trial to End All Trials
Evidently, the law moved a lot faster for the king than for anyone else I’d ever heard about because it was less than an hour later when the mousey chamberlain showed up.He gave me a low bow. “Lady Elena,” he said. “I'm here to escort you to the opening proceedings of the trial.”“Already? I guess the lawyers don't need any more time to prepare.”He shot me in an incredulous look. “The lawyers have been working tirelessly on this case since, somehow, a recording of your private conversation with the king got admitted into the public sphere last night. They are at least prepared to take opening statements. Make sure you have yourself ready,” he said disdainfully.“For what I demanded. I haven't even had time to consult with a lawyer or anything.”“When making a blatant power grab, one ought to be prepared for the consequences.” The Chamberlain turned on his heel and started walking down the hall, not waiting for me.Charles started after him, fury on his face, but I caught his arm and
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 211: A Sympathetic Soul
The king and his lawyer scowled, but the judge continued. “In addition, I will be appointing all of the necessary staff for Miss Laurentia's well-being. Ahe will be housed in a location of my choosing. And I will not be releasing that information to anyone.”The king scowled even further, and from the row behind me, I heard Charles and both bodyguards let out sighs of relief.The judge eyed me. “Who's your current security?”I pointed at David and Theo.The judge focused an intense gaze on me. “I will see you alone in my chambers after the court is adjourned this morning. And we will talk about your personal safety.”I nodded. “Thank you, your honor.”“Now, does anyone have anything else to add here?” The judge looked at both lawyers.They both shook their heads.She raised her gavel again and banged it down on her desk. “Then I declare this court adjourned.”Theo stood and hopped over the rail between the desk where I sat and where he was sitting in the gallery.“I'll escort you to t
Fated to My Alpha Boss #Chapter 212: Escaping the Public Eye
I grinned back at him. “I vouched for both of you with the judge, and I'm glad I did. You prove my faith in you at every turn.”David and Theo, with Charles and I, entered into the bowels of the courthouse and then through a panel that looked like a blank section of wall, simply by pressing an outlet. I would never have thought that someplace as boring and unassuming as a plugin was actually a secret door.Once we were inside the passage, emergency lights flickered to life. David went first, and Theo followed behind Charles and me, sandwiching us in the middle. They led us through quiet, empty passages full of thick, warm air.It was clear that the ventilation down here was minimal because it had a dusty taste to it, which coated my tongue every time I breathed in. David took us around several sharp turns and then behind a set of pipes. There, we had to go through a low opening covered by a grate on our hands and knees.He replaced the grate when all of us were inside, and after crawl
