The Alpha King's Claimed Breeder 53
Fifty three*Freya* Rafe and I stared at each other, our hearts trying to speak to one another. He looked like he wanted to explain himself but he kept silent. I tried to hold back the tears that was trying to force its way out of my eyes. I couldn't let them see me cry. Jessica smirked, triumph glittering in her coldly beautiful face. "Oh Freya," she drawled, vicious glee dripping from every syllable. "What are you doing here? Surely you knew Rafe would choose to be with me at this time. Did you honestly think you ever stood a chance?"Rafe's brow furrowed, a war of emotions playing out across his handsome features as he glanced between Jessica and me. "Freya, I was just coming to see you..." he began, taking a step towards me, one hand outstretched. But I couldn't bear to hear his excuses, his lies. Humiliation burned through me, mingling with the searing ache of betrayal. I had to escape before I crumbled completely. "Why did you even ask me to come here?" I asked, feeling t

Fifty four *Freya*I collapsed to my knees in the maze garden, sobs wracking my body as hot tears streamed down my cheeks. The image of Rafe kissing Jessica burned into my mind. How could he do this to me? I thought as another wave of anguish crashed over me. He had taken me to his most secret, special place - the magical oasis glimmering with ethereal light. I thought we shared something special in that enchanted place, our souls connecting on a deeper level.But it had all been a lie. The way I had seen him locking lips with Jessica in the receiving room, her eyes glinting with cruel satisfaction as she stared me down over his shoulder. The ultimate betrayal.I had ran before Rafe could utter a word, Jessica's malicious smile seared into my brain. I couldn't bear to hear his excuses, there was no justification for shattering my heart into a million shards.The scent of jasmine choked me as I wept silently, mocking the dream I desperately wanted to believe - that Rafe and I were

Fifty five*Freya*Rafe held me tightly. I allowed myself to feel safe in his embrace for a perfect moment. Then with a surge of strength, I pushed Rafe away from me, breaking his hold. "No! Just...stop." My voice trembled with barely contained anguish. "Even if what you say is true, it doesn't matter. None of it matters."Rafe's brow furrowed in confusion. "What are you talking about? Of course it matters."I shook my head vehemently, hot tears pricking at my eyes once more. "No, it doesn't. Because no matter what either of us feels, we both know the truth - you will never be mine. I can never be yours." A ragged breath escaped my lungs. "I'm withdrawing from the competition. Tonight."Shock transformed Rafe's handsome features, his eyes going wide. "What? No! You can't..." He reached for me again but I slipped out of his grasp. "I can and I will." Steely determination threaded through my words even as my heart splintered. "This...whatever this is between us...it's an impossible dre

Fifty six*Freya*I sat in my room, my mind drifting to the sweet moments I had shared with Rafe in the gardens just hours before. His strong arms around me, the intensity in his blue eyes right before he captured my lips in a hot kiss that left me breathless and weak in the knees. I smiled at the memory, touching my fingertips to my still tingling lips. The door burst open and Grace, Flo and Clara hurried in, breaking me from my reverie. "Miss Freya, the court meeting will begin shortly! We must get you ready," Grace said urgently, already pulling open the wardrobe.Flo ushered me up from the chair. "Into the bath, my lady. Quickly now!"They hustled me behind the screen and helped me undress before I sank into the warm, rose-scented water. As I bathed, they laid out an exquisite gown of shimmering midnight blue, the silk embroidered with delicate silver flowers. It was the most beautiful dress I had ever seen. "Wow, that is so pretty.." I whispered, staring at the beautiful dress.

Fifty seven*Freya*We stared at each other in front of the whole crowd present at the court, but it felt like we were the only ones there. It was hard to believe that Rafe was daring to do what he had promised to do. On one hand, I wanted him to make me his publicly, on the other hand, I was afraid of what that meant for me. I didn’t want to be a target for the other ladies and I was scared of losing my only female friend, Addy. My mind blanked as I felt Rafe’s thumb touch my chin. I looked at him. He held me close to him as if he would never let me go. "Do you trust me, wildcat?" He repeated, a mischievous smile on his charming face. "Yes," I whispered. "I trust you."His grip on my waist tightened infinitesimally. "Then let me show everyone here how much you mean to me. Will you let me do that?" I stared at him for a moment, wondering what he wanted to do right now. Then I nodded softly. A hush fell over the entire court as Rafe lifted my hand to his lips, his eyes never leavi

Fifty eight *Rafe* "What the hell do you think you are doing?! You are breaking and changing the rules for some worthless–" "Don't you dare finish that sentence Gamma!" I yelled at Rafael, the rage overtaking every inch of my body at his malicious words. I refused to allow him soil Freya's name. "I don't mean to be rude, Rafe. But making Freya Hadid your favorite? Do you not realize how much of a huge let down this is? The council already mentioned that they favored either Jessica or the other lady from a diplomatic background, Aurora. I don't have anything against Freya.." "Lady Freya." I corrected slowly with a venomous glare. "I do not have anything against…Lady Freya.. but you are going against the councils plans. We both know that Lady Freya is not the ideal choice for you. You need some time to think and consider this. This will change a lot of things!" I sighed with a pause, my hands pulling my hair in frustration. "I know quite well what I'm doing, Raf, please do

Fifty nine*Freya* The hunting games was about to begin but I had no idea why I had this endless feeling of unease coursing through my body. I turned to study the faces of everyone around. They were all excited and ready to jump into the woods. I stood in the crowd, my heart sinking as I saw Rafe step up onto the platform. His dark eyes scanned the crowd gathered before him, not even pausing on me for a moment. "The hunting games begin in a few seconds!" Rafe's deep voice boomed out. "Here is the instruction. Three golden rabbits have been released into the woods. The first pair to capture one will be the winners and receive a special prize. Then the second and third pair will receive a consolation prize." His lips curled into a smile that didn't reach his eyes. I had no idea why but he looked like he was upset about something. My stomach twisted. I had been so sure Rafe would choose me as his hunting partner. He had publicly announced that I was his favorite and I was the only o

Sixty The butterflies were stuck in the back of our minds, it was like they controlled our minds. I wanted to see more of them, to know where they were taking me. Then something inside me rang with an urgency that wrenched me away from the influence of the magical creatures. With a supreme effort of will, I dragged my gaze away, shaking my head to clear the cobwebs. This was wrong. Butterflies didn't glow. And there was something we needed to do, something important..."Connor!" I called, my voice sounding muffled and far away. "Connor, snap out of it! It's not real!"But he was lost to me, stumbling deeper into the swarm with a hypnotized smile on his face. Panic rising in my throat, I lunged forward, grasping for any part of him I could reach. My fingers closed around his wrist and I yanked him back with all my strength. "Connor! Snap out!" I yelled again, but he didn't listen. He was still lost. That was when I realized what I had to do. Connor was still dazed, stumbling alon
