Daniel had been a nervous wreck as he hoped for the date to be a success. It didn't help that as the night drew near, anxiety increased. It was almost as if he could hear his own heartbeat and that of other people, which made absolutely no sense to him.

All he wanted was for his date with Josiana to go smoothly.

He picked up the flower when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching in his direction. When he saw her up close, everything he was holding inside crumbled. The emotion that was stirring in his heart was already touching the top.

And the moment their eyes met, he wanted nothing more than to hold her. It made holding back so hard with every expression she gave and the way she teasingly bit her lips in a nervous act.

"I know how much you love red roses, so I picked some for you," he said, handing the flowers over to her, and her eyes lit up with a smile adorning her face.

"Thank you, they are beautiful," Josiana says, taking a whiff. "And they smell nice."

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   KIDNAPPED

    "Eli…jah, wh…at are you doing?" I asked, falling to the floor.Elijah bends, picking me up in a bridal style. "I’m really sorry, Micaela; I wish I had other choices. I hope one day you and Orpheus find it in your hearts to forgive me, but for now, I’ve got to do what’s best for my family.""Where are you taking me?" My head lolled over his arm as he carried me down the hallway in the opposite direction of the main stairs.Elijah kicked one of the panels at the end of the passageway, revealing a secret stairway. In my haze, I couldn't help but wonder if Orpheus knew about this.Elijah carried me easily as he hurried down the five flights of stairs, skirting around the palace while remaining hidden in the shadows.“Good, you’ve got her," a deep voice said. "I was beginning to think you changed your mind." A man stepped forward from the darkness. I shake off the blurriness, trying to get a proper look at his face.A very familiar scar ran down from above his left eye."It's not like I ha

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   SAFEST PLACE TO BE

    Orpheus and I stood at the entrance of the palace; he had suggested taking a walk to help get my mind off things. It has been four days since the trial, with the second and last set to take place tomorrow.There hasn’t been any news concerning Omelia since the night she appeared. It was like she had vanished all over again, and though Loukas has been keeping an eye on Neve, there hasn’t been any change or any indication that she might know where Omelia is.Orpheus's hand on mine brought me out of my thoughts, and I smiled at him as we made our way into the woods. Once we got in, he made his way to a tree, emerging minutes later as Sliver.He walks over to me, his height towering over mine, before leaning for me to get on his back. I did as he instructed, holding tightly to his as he ran through the woods. The cold breeze of the night fanned against my skin, causing a tingle around my body.I wasn’t sure for how long we ran, but I was having a blast. Orpheus came to a stop, halting in

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   TRIAL

    "Any update yet?" I asked Loukas, who was standing beside me."Not yet." He responds. "All she does is stay home with the pups, and if she isn’t attending to them, then she is here in the palace. Only for a brief moment, or at her place of work. She hasn’t really done anything out of place, and earlier she seemed worried about Micaela when we were talking. She kept asking if Micaela was going to be okay or not. Are you really certain that Neve has turned on us and actually joined hands with your mother?" He asked, and I could hear the quaver in his voice and tell this was painful for him.It seemed he hadn’t come to terms with Neve's possible betrayer. It was understandable; after all, she was his mate. And the fact that we had all grown up together made it even more painful, knowing there was this big rift between us."Do you think she is aware of you monitoring her?" I asked, and Loukas shook his head."I doubt that." He says. "I have been very discreet."I sighed. "Let’s continue t

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   MAKE ME FORGET

    I lay on the bed, wide awake and unable to sleep. The trial was a few hours away, and I couldn’t help but ponder if I was indeed making the right decision to go ahead with it or not.A part of me wants to be selfish, putting Orpheus and me first and our happiness first. But another part just couldn’t, knowing I wouldn't be able to do away with the guilt. I had a responsibility to uphold, even more so after what happened to Saoirse and Josiana.Taking a deep breath, I turned over to my side, my gaze resting on Orpheus’s sleepy form. His brows were creased together, and even in his sleep, I could tell he was worried.I reach over, gently tracing the curves of my mate's sleeping face. There's a light stubble over his cheeks, creating a roughness that I adore whenever he kisses me.His long lashes curl up at the end, framing his blue eyes that are peacefully closed. I leaned forward, pecking his forehead, before quietly slipping out of bed.Just like any other night these past few days, I

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   KEEPING A PROMISE

    I growled, thinking about the outcome of the day. Micaela was already fast asleep when I returned back to the room, and I knew how much she needed it, seeing as she hasn’t been sleeping well these past few days.How dare they think they could come unannounced and make absurd accusations about Micaela?I gulped down a glass of whisky, slamming it down on the table hard, when a knock resounded from the door, and I growled out, Come in, causing the door to be pushed open and Loukas to walk in.He had a distressed look on his face, taking in the fury in mine."How is Micaela? Did something happen at the funeral?""Micaela is fine, and she is finally sleeping. And the funeral did go smoothly." I clarified."Then why do you look pissed?" He asked, taking a seat opposite me. "Does it have anything to do with the reappearance of your mother? Whistles have been filling the palace about her being here."I sighed, pouring myself another glass of whisky. "The Elders and Council of Men are plannin

  • Alpha King's Human Mate   AGAINST THE RULES

    "Omelia." I voiced out after coming out of my shock. "What are you doing here?""What else would I be doing in the palace? I'm from the royal family, which means I have every right to be here.""Maybe, but why the sudden reappearance after disappearing for nearly four to five months now?" I asked with a raised brow, walking back to where Orpheus was, my gaze not shifting from her."I didn’t realise I was under some sort of interrogation." Omelia scoffs, giving me a hard glare.I guess some things will never change. Maybe a part of me thought the only reason she stayed away was because she felt guilty. But clearly, her resolve towards me still remained the same."I don’t know why you are here, but you are very much not welcome here." Orpheus spat out; his eyes hardened."I haven’t seen you for nearly five months, and the first thing you say is how unwelcoming I am here. You sure do know how to make your mother feel special.""Sadly, I don’t have one." Orpheus counters. "No mother would
