The Alpha King's Last Wish 44: Forged alliance
With Xavier’s regained strength, he embarked on his visitation to the four regions in the kingdom of Wahala, assuring them of the coming victory. This was what he wanted to do but couldn’t because of the shadow sickness.First, he came before the warrior’s institute, which had over twenty thousand soldiers trained and ready for the coming war. His presence, looking healthy, put much joy in their eyes, and Xavier was happy to see it. Then he visited the scholar’s institute and then the farmer’s institute. It was good to see that, despite his lack of presence or visitation, the three institutions kept to their duties and continued in faith. Seeing him now gave them a cheerful outlook for the coming war.Just as he promised the warrior institute, he promised the farmer and scholar’s institute of their victory, which was already around the corner.With the visit to the capital 3 completed, Xavier planned to visit the four regions in the kingdom. It was not only to check the fortifications
The Alpha King's Last Wish 45: The beginning
Damien Ferro, the king of Foth, and the ten ships on the sea would touch shores in a week, according to the estimations of Ace and Edward.Ace returned from Klean faster than Xavier expected a week when he left days ago. King Simone had responded quicker than he had imagined, and though he didn’t come along with his armies sent, Xavier had nothing but respect for him for keeping to his words of standing beside them in the war. The armies of Klean and Jade had reached Wahala. Their numbers, added to what they already had, would not only give them an advantage, but it was also a chance that they could win the coming war.The armies from Klean joined the armies in the capital 3’s warrior institute to train and harness their fighting abilities. They now faced an enemy they had never seen before and needed to be ready for anything. Being human puts the armies of Klean at greater risk. But having seen them in action three years ago, Xavier had hope in their abilities.“You must have put up
The Alpha King's Last Wish 46: Honour and promise
They thought they had more time, but this was it—this was the great war. It was on their doorstep now. If the Kingdom of Foth plans to come against them in batches, then they will cripple them from all corners.Xavier turned to Mia, and she looked surprised as well, yet ready for whatever decision he wanted to make.Mia and Xavier stood before the armies of the warrior’s institute, already awake and assembled, as Ace took the news to them after the king dismissed him.“We just received news that the army from Foth will reach our shores in a few hours.” Xavier began in a loud and firm voice. “We thought we had more time, but fate had other plans. There is no other option but to fight. We promise to give them a Wahala welcome.”The armies cheered loudly, throwing their spears in the air.Following Ace’s instructions, they assembled a few metres away from the shores of Wahala, counting down the hours until the armies of Foth arrived at the shores.Though there had been fortifications put
The Alpha King's Last Wish 47: Scars left
It was barely morning when Ace heard movement in his room. His eyes snapped open, already becoming alert. Ever since the incident at Shelled, he has become extra conscious, even in his sleep. He woke to little movement, and even a change in the wind would wake him up.He would never go back to the unguarded person he once was, at least not until the war was over. He sat in bed, and his eyes glowed in the dark, wanting to know who was now in his room. Judging from the steps alone, whoever it was, seemed relaxed—maybe clumsy.They didn’t seem like attackers. Yet he couldn’t trust them. The footsteps came to his door, and they stopped moving.When the door cracked open, Ace was already on his feet, ready for an attack. Clumsy or not, someone was in his room in his house, and they were uninvited. It was his duty to protect himself and his home from everything.As the door opened wide, Ace moved swiftly to it, yanked the hand of the intruder, and pulled them into the room. He was about to
The Alpha King's Last Wish 48: Last day
Xavier woke up to see Mia already awake and lost in thought. His arms came around her waist and pulled her closer to himself, releasing a long sigh.“Good morning, my love.” He said and kissed her shoulders.She squirmed and turned to face him in his arms. “Good morning, darling.”“It doesn’t look like a good morning for you; you are already up.” He pointed out and kissed her shoulders again.She buried her face in his hairy chest to hide the redness thereon. “I was thinking.”“About?”“The coming war and what to do with Kim and Lyon?”“We already discussed this. The two, along with the rest of the children, ages 10 to 1, will stay at the high tower until the war ends.” He reminded her of the decision they made about this same issue, and she nodded.“But we do not know how long the war will last. They are children and are more than a thousand; the High Tower cannot be their home. We do not know what tricks the soldiers from Foth wield, and we cannot make that our last resort.”“What d
The Alpha King's Last Wish 49: Scores to settle
Xavier arrived at the palace to find Mia and Alpha Chado waiting for him. Being the alpha of security, he had been on the shores along with a dozen of the king’s men on guard, focusing on the ships coming from Foth. Their duties were to report the advancement of the ship so they wouldn’t be caught off guard.His presence now meant that the ships were not less than a few hours away from shore.“It is time to move to the black cove.” Alpha Chado said.Xavier didn’t have to be told twice before gathering the rest of the king’s men in the palace together to depart.They came to the palace compound, and a large portal opened before them, and Xavier knew who it was. Edward.He was the only one left to join the feast of blood they called war. He had returned days ago to report King Aeon’s agreement to send soldiers. Then later, back to Jade to bring the soldiers.He didn’t step through immediately, but the soldiers holding the banners of Jade stepped through the opening, marching out in tens
The Alpha King's Last Wish 50: Failure and blames
Edward watched as Kailani played with Kim while answering Lyon’s questions with a straight face. Some of his questions had taken her off guard, and they had been at it for over thirty minutes; he knew that because that was how long he had been watching them.He watched them.He watched her many nights and days while he was away.When Xavier assigned him the mission to Jade, he had thought she would stop him; that would mean being too far apart. She was in Foth, and at least in Wahala, he saw her, portaling in and out. Now, in Jade, he didn’t have that much privacy or time to do all that. He thought she would rebel and tell him how much she needed him. But he should have known who his mate was; she wasn’t built like other maidens.A part of him wished she was, though; he wanted her to desire his presence more or at least show that she did, and it hurt every time she showed a bold face.Perhaps he was at fault; he had trained her for years to survive without him because he saw them apar
The Alpha King's Last Wish 51: The beginning
Xavier pondered everything even as he waited for the force of Foth to assemble at the black cove. Aeon was right; if he hadn’t agreed to give Damien a fair shot at this war, he would have had the upper hand and already wrecked enough damage. Was it pride talking when he made that agreement? Did his anger at every sneaky tactic the King of Foth has used so far make him decide recklessly? He wouldn’t know.Assembled here at the black cove were twenty thousand soldiers of the three kingdoms combined. The enemies coming against them were estimated at fifty thousand soldiers, but he knew they could take them on because that was what they had trained for in the last few years. He had seen this day; he had seen this war over and over. For a while, he thought he wouldn’t be a part of it, but here he stood, about to lead the bloodiest battle ever known in the history of the four kingdoms.“The army from Foth and the slaths approach!” Sir Duncan sounded the alarm, and the army of Wahala fell in
