CHAPTER TWENTY-TWOAccused 2Alarick groaned as he rubbed his temples, trying to alleviate the headache that had plagued him since he woke up. The events of the previous night flashed in his mind, and he winced at the memory of losing control and transforming into his beast form.He looked around the room, noticing that Leanda was nowhere in sight. He wondered if she had left without saying goodbye, and a pang of disappointment hit him. He had hoped to thank her properly for her help in calming him down.Even if that would hurt his ego, he still wanted to thank her because it takes a lot to be able to calm him down and help him change back to his human form.As he sat on the edge of the bed, his mind went back to the moment he had chained himself up to prevent himself from hurting anyone. It was a necessary precaution, but it made him feel weak and vulnerable.Morgana and the head witch had told him that the taking over of his body by his wolf was getting closer, and that was why he k

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOURIt's Going To Be FineAlarick stormed into his chamber with Morgana trailing behind him, her voice soothing and calming. But he wasn't listening. His mind was consumed with anger, and he paced the room, fuming with rage.He punched the wall repeatedly, his knuckles turning white with each impact. "She could have died, Morgana!" he shouted, his voice laced with frustration and guilt. "And it would have been my fault. I brought her here to protect her, to keep her safe. And I couldn't even do that."His anger fueled his movements as he continued to pace, his eyes flashing with emotion. "I should have known better," he muttered under his breath, his voice barely audible over the sound of his footsteps. "I should have been more careful."."She could have died" he shouted, his voice echoing through the room. "Leanda. She could have been killed, and that for a crime she didn't even commit, she is innocent. And I would have had to live with the guilt for the rest of my li

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIXSelected For The Alpha KingLeanda couldn't say anything this time, she was helpless, she didn't know what to do, she didn't want to get slapped again, the least she wanted was to get humiliated by these people again.Leanda could only wish that someone would come to save her, someone who would save her from these selection because the last thing she wanted was sharing a bed with any of these men."Stop!" a loud voice came at them and they came to a halt abruptly.Leanda wondered who this person could be, but she hoped it was someone who would save her from the selection.She turned to see Dennis standing far away from them, he was Alarick's bodyguard and she could still remember that he was among the three that brought her into this world.She was confused, why will he save her now.Leanda stumbled as the pack member let go of her arm, surprised and confused at the sudden intervention. She turned to face Dennis, who had a stern expression on his face."Come with me

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHTThe Strange FeelingAs he deepened the kiss, Alarick's hand slid down her body, gripping her curves tightly. Leanda moaned despite herself, her anger quickly giving way to arousal. For a moment, she lost herself in the kiss, in the feeling of Alarick's body against hers. But then the reality of the situation hit her like a ton of bricks. She tried to push him away, but he only pressed harder against her. As the kiss finally broke, Leanda could feel the tears threatening to spill over. "Why?" she whispered, her voice trembling. "Why are you doing this?" Alarick's expression softened, just slightly. "Because I want you," he said simply. "And I always get what I want." Leanda's heart ached at the words. Leanda and Alarick stood in front of each other, their eyes locked in an intense gaze. Slowly, they leaned in, their lips meeting in a fiery kiss that sent shivers down their spines. The heat between them was unbearable, and they both knew that they wanted more.S

CHAPTER THIRTYSpeak To Your Wolf 2Alarick gritted his teeth and focused on the task at hand. Slowly, he felt his wolf's presence inside him. He could feel it. Alarick opened his eyes one after the other and he could see his wolf in the mirror.The sight of it sent shrills down his body, was this the one living inside of me?."Speak to me!" The wolf said.Alarick stood frozen in front of the giant mirror, his eyes fixed on the reflection of his wolf. The image was distorted and twisted, unlike anything he had ever seen before. The once majestic creature was now twisted and contorted, its fur matted and dirty, its eyes glowing with an otherworldly light.The wolf was no longer under Alarick's control, but under the influence of the dark demon that had cursed him. Its growls were low and menacing, and its teeth were bared in a snarl that made Alarick's blood run cold.He shivered as he watched in fear, was this the wolf living inside of him? it had the appearance of a demon, he couldn'
