ALPHA KING AYDEN Driving into the compound where the banquet was being held, a group of men who turned out to be security for that night rushed to welcome me. Laying out a red carpet, they all bowed as I majestically made my way into the hall.I have never really liked attention but I'm used to it. The wolves present, both male and female, tried to take pictures and yelled my name as I walked past them. I kept a straight face, ignoring their greetings. I've been called cold hearted because I rarely showed any emotion, maybe it's true."Our mate is here." Karl growled, signalling that Zadie was here.What?What is she doing here? Why did Zadie come to the banquet again? Did she also want to meet the Alpha King? Did she also want to get his attention and win his heart like the other females here? I guess I was too quick to believe that she was a good werewolf.With a frown on my face, I entered the banquet hall and immediately, loud screams filled the air, my subjects were always excit
ZADIE WILSONI was stunned by how Ayden reacted just now. I raised my head to look at him, because he was much taller. I was wondering what was going on in his head, he was acting possessive and jealous. The way he glared at Lucas scared me.Chloe and Lucas were equally stunned, especially Lucas. I can only imagine how heartbroken he is after finding out that I have a mate and I have been marked. Even though I have tried to keep my distance from him to avoid his feelings for me from growing, it didn't help.Turning back to Ayden, I wiggled my wrist, trying to free myself from his grip. He looked at me and quickly let go of my hand. The anger in his eyes quickly faded and was replaced by guilt. He probably realized that he overreacted. I'm just glad nobody got into a fight."Do you want to go with me?" Ayden suddenly asked, his tone was also much softer."Yes." I answered, nodding.I turned to Chloe and Lucas, I hugged Chloe and took a glance at Lucas before walking towards the directi
ZADIE WILSONAyden stared at me for some seconds before facing the road again. Wasn't he going to answer?"I don't have any relation to him. Why do you ask?" He finally spoke."Isn't it weird that you both have the same name?" I asked, arching my brows and trying to monitor his expressions. As usual, his face was void of emotion."It's just a coincidence. Many people share the same name." He answered, pushing down on the accelerator as the car started moving faster than before. My heart almost sank into my stomach, I pleaded with him to drive slower but he continued, tightening his grip on the steering wheel. I could see the veins in his neck swell up.Oh, my days! What did I say wrong now?"Stop it Ayden! You're gonna get us killed!" I screamed at the top of my voice and he suddenly came to a halt. I almost hit my head on the dashboard but thank goodness I was wearing a seatbelt. We both panted heavily, exchanging glances."What was that about?" I asked, my hands trembling from the s
ZADIE WILSONAfter Ayden's apology, things generally got better for the both of us. He came home later that afternoon and when I asked about the bland apology, he scratched the back of his and admitted that he wasn't used to giving apologies.Perhaps he wasn't like Alpha Calvin after all."I'm not used to that kind of stuff. But.." he paused, he looked like he had a tough time saying whatever was on his mind. I folded my arms and waited for him to speak."I'm.. I'm sorry for the way I raised my voice, it was unnecessary." He apologized and my face lit up. I smiled broadly at him and he smiled back as well, but only for a millisecond."That's better." I nodded."I need to take a bath, today's training was stressful." He said and climbed the stairs up to his room. I also went back to my room, having nothing else to do.I quickly got bored in my room, there was nothing to do. Scrolling through social media has also become boring. Plus Chloe wasn't active online.I heard some noise coming
ZADIE WILSONI was waiting for Ayden to answer my question. He sighed and rubbed his forehead before opening his mouth to speak."That was a messenger. He was directed here by one of the neighbors who know me as a warrior to ask me for the address of the Alpha King's home." He explained. I thought about his answer for a while before shrugging.I accepted his explanation, not just because it sounds legit, but because I didn't want him to get angry at me again."All right. Well, I have to get ready for work." I said, making my way upstairs.The diner has been closed since yesterday and I can't let that continue. It's my only source of income and keeping it closed will make me lose a lot of customers.I took my bath and put on a pair of jeans with a floral long sleeved crop top to match. I let my hair down and admired myself a little bit in the mirror before grabbing my purse and heading downstairs.Ayden was still sitting and scrolling through his phone. Wasn't he going out today?"Hey.
ALPHA KING AYDENMy heart raced.The sight of the woman I have been destined to spend the rest of my life with... The sight of her magnificent nakedness... It made my heart race.Obviously, a brief flashback was needed. How did I get to this point?Well, Zadie came home from her diner looking exhausted but she still insisted on cooking for me. I tried to convince her to forget about it but her stubborn self wouldn't listen so I allowed her. I sat in the living room, occasionally looking in the direction of the kitchen to check if I would steal a glance at her.Twenty minutes later, she came out carrying a tray which contained the food. She placed it before me on a stool and sat next to me. She looked excited, maybe because this would be the first time I'm tasting her food.I stared at the food, it didn't look familiar at all. She did mention that it was a local dish. I'm not used to these, being an Alpha King and all that."What's wrong? You don't like it?" She asked, narrowing her e
ZADIE WILSONThere was that flame again…The same flame I had seen in his hazel eyes last night after he collapsed on my wet body. It was right there again and his eyes turned into a darker shade of hazel- if that was even possible. My breath hitched and I could feel myself turning into a bubble of jelly as Ayden moved his face closer to mine.I will be a fool to not know what was about to happen. Rather than fight him, I closed my eyes and waited to see if he would go through with this. Despite my inability to perceive strongly like other werewolves, the intoxicating scent of desire took over my nostrils and I became weak to my toes…I breathed, “Ayden…”Much to my surprise his name sounded sweeter to my ears and the way it rolled off my tongue made me release a low moan.He groaned in response, wrapping his firm hands around my waist. Again, my breath hitched. Why not?Aside from the embarrassment I felt all through the night, I also couldn't get Ayden out of my mind. The way he
ALPHA KING AYDEN"When will you stop?" I barked at Jaxon, whose annoying eyes had been on me ever since we left my second home this morning.My Beta had taken it upon himself to annoy me throughout the day, even though we were both dealing with serious issues.Jaxon retorted, "Stop what? Has it become a crime to stare at my Alpha? I am simply admiring you, Alpha King."I hissed, "Stop this nonsense, Jaxon. I don't want to have you beheaded."I threatened my Beta, but he merely chuckled as he drove us back to the main pack land. We had been inspecting the borders of the territory since rogue attacks had skyrocketed recently."It's been a long day, Alpha King," Jaxon voiced after a few minutes of silence, and I agreed with him.Until he added, "It's good that you have a woman to go home to. You must be excited, and tonight is the perfect night to continue what you introduced early this morning-""Park the car!"I lashed out with a voice that clearly announced my anger and seriousness.H
