Her Alpha King CHAPTER TWENTY - SIX
--Alyssa--The Alpha King stood there shirtless, his chiseled muscles glistening under the soft glow of the room’s lighting. I stood just a few feet away, clutching my towel tightly, desperately trying to maintain some semblance of modesty. His gaze roamed over my body, making me feel exposed and vulnerable.“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice trembling with a mix of fear and uncertainty. My heart pounded in my chest, and a cold dread settled over me. The thought flashed through my mind that he might be here to take away my virginity, and I felt a wave of panic.He took a step closer, and I instinctively took a step back, my hands gripping the towel even tighter. “This is my room as well,” he said in a low voice, the warmth of his breath brushing against my neck and sending an involuntary shiver down my spine. The proximity of his body and the intensity of his presence were overwhelming.I continued to back away until I hit the wall. Trapped, I could only watch as he moved pa

--Alyssa--I woke up on the sofa, my back aching from the uncomfortable position. I glanced at the bed, scanning for any sign of the ruthless man. All he could have done was to find another room for himself or stay out of sight. The room was empty. To be sure, I sniffed the air; his scent was absent.Feeling a wave of relief, I stood up happily. Almost immediately, there was a knock on the door."Come in," I called out, already recognizing Lily’s scent from the other side.She entered and bowed slightly. "Luna, are you ready to take your bath?" she asked, waiting patiently for my response. The formalities and the title felt so foreign to me, still something I was getting used to."Yes," I replied, partly because I wanted to explore and find a way to execute my escape plan as soon as possible. Not everyone knew my face, so walking past the guards without being noticed seemed feasible.Lily led me to the bathroom, and I followed. "I will prepare the Jacuzzi for you," she said, opening a

--Alysaa--Lily and I had a chat because I was feeling bored and lonely at the same time. I knew it was time for breakfast, but I didn't want to go. However, she mentioned that the others were slow eaters, so anytime I went there, I would definitely see someone eating.As we talked, Lily shared more about herself. She explained that she was chosen from a young age to be in charge of taking care of the Luna. She said she had studied a lot: hairstyling, makeup, learning how to fight, using a gun, and other skills that surprised me. I felt a pang of pity for her because her childhood had been deprived of normalcy. But she saw it as a good thing, noting that her family could live comfortably because of the benefits that came with her role.“Let’s go,” she said, closing the door behind me as we left the room."Can I just eat in the kitchen?" I asked, hoping she would agree. It wasn't that I disliked the others; I just didn't want to talk to anyone. Being around them wouldn't alleviate my l

--Alyssa--Xavier never looked at me once. The only time he did was when I entered the dining room, and his expression was one of clear displeasure. His eyes flashed with anger, though I couldn't fathom why. I felt a knot tighten in my stomach, wondering what I had done to provoke such a reaction.“Hey, you sit there and I’ll sit here,” said a girl who looked about my age. She slipped into the seat beside me with a casual ease that put me slightly at ease.“Hi, I’m Meredith. I didn’t get the chance to meet you yesterday because I had class,” she explained, her tone bright and friendly. Her presence was a welcome distraction from the tension radiating from Xavier.“I guess you are the famous mate of my cousin,” she said, extending a hand in a gesture of friendship. I shook her hand, grateful for the small connection in this otherwise isolating environment.“Yes, that’s me,” I replied, managing a smile. Meredith’s friendliness was a stark contrast to the coldness I felt from Xavier.“I

--Alyssa--“And why were you with Christopher in just a swimsuit?” he asked, his tone laced with irritation. I felt the familiar pang of annoyance rise within me.“I was not standing in front of him just in a swimsuit. I had a towel wrapped around me,” I responded, my voice defensive as I tried to explain myself. His expression, however, only grew more severe, his features tightening with anger.“I do not want you standing practically naked in front of any male. Have you heard that?” His words were clipped, each one dripping with possessiveness. “Then why don’t you go and question him about why he entered when he saw that I was there?” I shot back, refusing to let him pin the blame on me. My frustration boiled over. It wasn’t my fault that Christopher had walked in; I was already at the pool when he came in unannounced. I had never invited him to join me.“Okay, so why are you not wearing the dresses that I bought?” he demanded, his voice rising with each word. He stood there, hands
Her Alpha King CHAPTER THIRTY - ONE
--Alyssa--Lily’s revelation about Xavier adopting Zeus left me stunned. The image of the fearsome Alpha, whom I had seen as nothing more than domineering and aloof, crumbled before me. He had brought Zeus home, arranged for a nanny, and set up a nursery—all signs of genuine care and responsibility that contradicted the ruthless reputation he supposedly carried.“Are you sure?” I asked, though even as the words left my mouth, I knew it was a foolish question. The evidence was clear from how Xavier interacted with Zeus—the tenderness, the affection, the way the child responded to him.“Yes, he’s not like everyone says,” Lily replied calmly, meeting my gaze with unwavering sincerity.“Is Xavier ruthless like everyone says?” I found myself blurting out the question that had plagued my thoughts since I arrived at the Bloodmoon Pack.“No, those are just stories people like to spread,” Lily explained, her voice gentle but firm. I couldn’t help but feel shocked by her words.“Then why hasn’t

–Xavier pov–“Sleep comfortably,” I said to the people I had just finished a meeting with. The exhaustion was palpable, and all I wanted was to collapse into my bed. As I made my way down the hall, I thought of Aurelia and worried she might be sleeping on the sofa again. If that were the case, I would carry her to the bed, even if it meant doing so by force. She was too precious to be left uncomfortable.Aurelia’s childish stubbornness often frustrated me, but I knew it was a defense mechanism born of fear. She had been through so much, and I had inadvertently added to her burdens. My heart ached every time she recoiled from me, avoiding my touch and refusing to speak. It pained me that she wouldn’t even wear the dresses I bought for her, dresses I had chosen with such care, hoping to see her smile.For a decade, I had searched for my mate, and now that I had found her, she seemed uninterested in me. How were mates supposed to feel towards each other? Could she not sense the bond? Or

--Alyssa--“Meredith was here,” she said to me as she gently towel-dried my wet hair.“Yes, I heard her when she came in. Do you think she’s angry with me?” I asked, concerned.“No, she looked like she’d been crying. I think she came to apologize for not taking care of you properly,” she responded, though I wasn’t fully convinced.“What if she’s angry with me because I caused her trouble?”“I’m not sure. She seemed more remorseful than anything,” she said, combing through my hair with delicate care.“Who really is Meredith?” I asked, my curiosity piqued. She seemed wild, the type that always wanted to party her nights away.“She’s Xavier’s cousin,” she replied, still working on my hair.“She’s feisty and loves to party. She’s frequently on house arrest,” she explained, a hint of exasperation in her voice. “So, this isn’t the first time she’s been on house arrest?” I asked, shocked by this revelation.“No, this is probably the hundredth time,” she replied with a sigh.Wow, Meredith wa
