Claimed By The Shadow King: The Betrayed Alpha Heir. Chapter 50
Ayla’s POV“Poisoned?” The word rasps out of my throat, raw and disbelieving. “How — how could I be poisoned?”My head spins as a violent wave of dizziness crashes over me. The air in the penthouse bedroom fills stiff and hot as it fills my lungs. A fierce fire churns beneath my skin, spreading through my veins like boiling liquid. Sweat slicks my temples and my knees tremble so hard I can barely stand.Lucian’s dark eyes narrow, watching the fierce flush spread up my chest and neck. He slowly lifts his hand, his thumb brushing over the bruised skin of my throat where his claws sank in last night.“My claws,” he murmurs, his voice a low, terrifying rumble that vibrates through the walls. “They carry a lethal, demonic venom when my wolf takes control. You were infected the moment I broke your skin.”I gasp, instantly moving away from him and the wall, my breathing accelerating. “Venom?”“Shadow-wolf venom,” Lucian says taking slow, deliberate steps closer completely trapping me in his

Ayla’s POVI stand rooted to the spot, my gaze fixed on the best friend who betrayed me and stole my mate. The hatred still remains buried deep in my veins.My fingers ball into tight fists. The destructive energy that surfaced that day with Celeste begins to surge deep within my chest again, finding a crack to burst through.What is she doing here? Why is she here?“Ayla?”I blink. My fists instantly loosen, and the power slowly recoils. I turn to find Lucian staring down at me.“Why did you stop?” he asks, lifting his eyes to glance over my shoulder in the direction I just was.“Nothing,” I murmur.“Did you see someone you know?” His dark eyes bore into mine, suspicion evident in his gaze.Do I tell him? Lucian is very dangerous. If I admit I just saw Elena, there’s no telling what he might do.“No… no, I didn’t see anyone,” I lie, dropping my gaze to my trembling hands.“Keep up, then.” I let out a heavy sigh as Lucian turns and walks away. I follow closely behind, taking one shar

Ayla’s POVI stare deeply at Mallory. I always knew there was something strange about her. Her aura has always seemed off. How does she know I can read minds?“I know you can… because I have a similar ability,” she explains, giving me a small smile. “But mine is limited”“Limited? How?”“I can only read the minds of people if I touch them. But you… you are hearing the thoughts of every single person in this hall right now, aren’t you?” She is right. I can hear every single thing. The voices are loud, but my mind has learnt to contain the noise so it doesn’t overwhelm me anymore.“How did you know?” I ask, eyeing her suspiciously. I absolutely cannot trust anyone anymore.“Because… that day in the hall, the thought you heard from that guy… I heard it too when I brushed past him.” she explains.I mouth an 'oh', nodding in understanding. “Okay,” I respond softly. “So what are you?”“I’m a hybrid — half vampire. That’s why my abilities are limited,” she says, fixing me with an intense s

Ayla’s POVI wake up to the harsh rays of the sun settling directly on my face through the glass windows. I force my heavy, aching eyes open and look around the room. I am actually alive. I thought I had died last night.A dry, painful cough escapes my throat the moment I try to breathe properly. My neck hurts so bad. The horrific scene from last night suddenly floods back into my mind—Lucian’s fiery crimson eyes, the black smoke erupting from his skin, his massive palm squeezing life out of me.Right when I think I was going to die, he suddenly stops. I pass out from the lack of oxygen shortly after. I look around the room and it’s completely empty. There’s no sign of Lucian anywhere. He almost killed me last night, and now he just walks away as if nothing happened? It is so incredibly cruel. I glance at the at the wall-clock and it is almost 8:00 AM, and I have a paper at 10:00 AM. I spring out of bed, ignoring the dizziness, and drag my weak body into the bathroom. The moment th

Ayla’s POVThe drive back to the estate is much faster than the drive to the university. When we arrive, I notice the mansion is unusually quiet. The staff aren’t moving around as usual, it is like everyone fled the mansion. I reach the suite and turn the knob, pushing the double doors open slowly and sticking my head in to check if Lucian is inside. Luckily, he isn’t.Dropping my bag on the table, I walk to the bed and throw myself onto it. I’m exhausted. I’ve not eaten all day. I let out a deep sigh and close my eyes, maybe I’ll just sleep and get some rest before Lucian returns.The sharp sound of the electronic lock clicking open steals away all traces of sleep from my eyes, throwing me back into reality. I peel my eyes open slowly, staring at the entrance as Lucian’s intimidating silhouette fills the doorframe. I immediately bolt up from the mattress, backing away toward the headboard, clutching the silk sheets to my body.He walks fully into the room, slamming the door shut

Ayla’s POVThe drive to the university takes longer than it should because the traffic is so bad. I lean my head on the window, watching every single car that passes ours.Lucian’s words has been on repeat in my mind. He wants to trigger my beast. He doesn’t know that Nova has surfaced already. Now, I have to keep her a secret, if I don’t, he might hurt her through me and I don’t want that.I’ve become very protective of her, and I don’t know why. But ever since she surfaced, it feels like a part of me that has been caged is finally free. “We are here, Miss Ayla,” the drivers husky voice drags me out of my thoughts. I totally didn’t realize we are already at the school gates. I let out a deep sigh and step out of the car as he holds the door wide open for me.I stand at a spot and watch the car drive away, my eyes darting to other hidden spots around the school, but I can’t see anyone watching me from the shadows, just the weird stares from the students around. I take a deep breath a

Ayla’s POV The moment the words left my mouth, it felt like I was split in two halves with a sword. My body trembled, my chest tightening so hard that it was difficult to breathe. I coughed up blood again, my body weak as I slumped to the ground. Julian was obviously still in pain, but he was a

Ayla’s POV “Mine!” The word rang in my ears like the sound of a bell. I lifted my head up and turned around. A man stood behind me—blond hair, golden eyes, tall and handsome. He was dressed in a different manner, I knew he was not a member of my pack. “Mate!” He growls again. And I was sur

Ayla’s POV “Who are you“ I asked again as the shadow rushed forward, revealing a masked man. Suddenly, a bright light gleamed from my necklace. It was so powerful that the assassin groaned in pain before bolting away through the balcony. What the hell just happened? Someone tried to kill me. Wh

Ayla’s POV The air in the room went still as I stared at my father’s lifeless body, an unreadable expression on my face. I refused to cry. I refused to give the pack the satisfaction of seeing me vulnerable—like they had always called me. Worthless. Weak. Disgrace. “He is gone my lady. My cond
