Enslaved To The Alpha King 41. The aftermath of her betrayal
[Xavier’s POV]Three weeks laterI had stood at the door for a few seconds before the guard opened it for me to go in. He had apparently been deep in thoughts about something, but it didn’t change the fact that he had left me standing there for a while.“Why did it take you seven seconds to notice my presence before you opened the door?” I thundered.He bowed his head meekly. “I am very sorry, Alpha Xavier. My mother is terribly sick, and I have just been very worried about her,” he explained.I scoffed. “How old is this mother of yours?” I inquired.“She is sixty-eight years old,” he responded.I gave a snorting chuckle. “Parents die, get used to it. My father lived for forty-five years, and my mother died while she was having me at the young age of twenty-two. To be honest, your mother has lived long enough so I don’t know why you should be so worried because she is sick. If you know that you can’t concentrate on the job you were employed to do, hand in your resignation letter. I do
Enslaved To The Alpha King 42. Congratulations, you are pregnant!
[Layla’s POV]My eyes were red and swollen from all the tears I had shed over the last three weeks. My body was sore, I had a throbbing headache, a burning fever and I ached all over. I even felt nauseous, and I had a mild cramp in my stomach, but with all that, that wasn’t the reason I was in so much pain. My pain came solely from my heart, and there was no doubt that my tears could fill up a river.No matter how many times I requested to see him, sent letters to him and sent messages through the guards to him, he just didn’t want to see me. He didn’t believe me, and he didn’t want to hear my own side of the story. He was done with me, and my heart ached because of that fact.Had I been wrong in thinking that the bond would continue to exist even if he rejected me? I didn’t know what else to think, except that he probably didn’t feel any sort of love towards me again and I should just stop trying.As I laid on the floor of the prison cell while looking up to the ceiling, I heard a kn
Enslaved To The Alpha King 43. Every single word
[Xavier’s POV]I belched loudly, then poured more wine into my cup and drank it all in one gulp. I belched again, then began to yawn loudly.“Don’t you think it’s too early for you to get drunk?” Veronica asked, concern laced in her voice.“It’s past 3 in the afternoon,” I retorted, opening the cork of another wine bottle.“Exactly. Why are you drinking so much in the afternoon? It’s not even evening yet, and you’re almost drunk,” she said.“Oh. I didn’t realise there’s a particular time to drink alcohol,” I said with a sneer, and with a loud hiss, I began to gulp down more wine.“You’ve changed so much. Do you realise that? Why are you talking to me this way? Last time I checked, I wasn’t the one that broke your heart,” she said.I stopped drinking almost immediately, and looked at her coldly. One look at her told me she regretted what she had said, but it didn’t stop the rage in me from building. The anger in my heart made my grip tighter on the wine glass and soon, it crumpled in m
Enslaved To The Alpha King 44. The right thing
[Xavier’s POV]I was drowning in my thoughts when Mr Harvey, the Pack’s doctor and Jeffrey’s father stepped into the dining room.“Greetings, Alpha Xavier,” he said as he walked towards where I sat.“Greetings. Please, have a seat,” I told him, and he sat down almost immediately.“What brings you here? I’m feeling a little bit tipsy, so if you are here to apologise again on behalf of your son, I would advise you against it. I can’t help Jeffrey out in his final trial which is coming up soon enough if he doesn’t admit that he is guilty and shows that he is indeed sorry and remorseful. I’ve said it before and I am saying it again. That’s the only way I can reduce his sentence,” I told him.He cleared his throat. “I totally understand you, Alpha Xavier. However, I am not here for the sake of my son today,” he said.I looked up, surprised. “If you’re not here for his sake, what then are you doing here?” I inquired.He heaved a deep sigh. “It is about Layla, the Omega,” he said.I adjusted
Enslaved To The Alpha King 45. The Alpha isn't coming
[Layla’s POV]A whole day had passed, and although Mr Harvey had assured me that he was going to deliver the news to Xavier, I had not seen him. Had he failed in getting to see him and delivering the good news that I was carrying his child to him?I was anxious... so anxious, and I couldn’t stop pacing around the cell, and every now and then, I would touch my stomach and smile broadly knowing fully well that I was carrying a life inside of me. I had never thought about getting pregnant and giving birth, but now that I actually was, it was hard to comprehend how a baby was growing in me, but still, it was such a beautiful and wonderful feeling.“I love you so much, my Nima. Just stay safe with me, your dad will be here soon and we will make sure you live a very good life,” I whispered with a very bright smile, as I touched my stomach affectionately.I heard light footsteps, and I quickly moved to the prison bars. The smile on my face dried up when I saw that it was Kyle who had come to
Enslaved To The Alpha King 46. I don't care about you
[Xavier’s POV]I flipped through the pages of the reports Layla had made on the cases I had assigned to her. She had left the book in her bedroom, and since she went back to prison where she rightfully belonged, nothing had been done to change the room whatsoever.I could sense that Roman was coming in, and I immediately closed the book and tossed it into the drawer, then stood up from the chair immediately. I didn’t want anyone to see the report book and find out that I was deliberately doing the opposite of Layla’s suggestions just to spite her.There was a knock on the door, and I opened it up almost immediately so that it appeared as though I was on my way out before he came in.“Hey, where have you been?” I asked, upon seeing Roman standing in the doorway.“I went to see you-know-who in prison. I was surprised when the guards informed me you were here,” Roman commented.I cleared my throat. “I was searching for something, and I felt that I had probably left it in here,” I said.“
Enslaved To The Alpha King 47. Thirst for revenge
[Layla’s POV]It had been two days since Xavier had made his proclamation, and since then, I hadn’t eaten or had even a drop of water to drink. My eyes were swollen and red from the tears that hadn’t stopped falling, my head ached terribly, my lips were chapped, and my stomach was empty and kept on tightening from hunger.Still, I had to be strong for my child’s sake. I resented Xavier... I greatly resented him. I had acted, pretended and told myself that he wasn’t all that bad, but I had been wrong. Even if I did betray him, taking his anger out on a child just showed how mean and despicable he was.With every moment that passed, I uttered a curse against him. The anger in me hadn’t subsided, rather, it had kept on piling up and increasing. I hated him, I detested him and all I could recall were the times he had been awful to me. Now, nothing he ever did good to me made any sense. He was a vile being, and for the rest of my life, I was never going to forgive him.A drop of tear fell
Enslaved To The Alpha King 48. I fell in love with a monster
[Layla’s POV]Two days had gone by, and I hadn’t heard any word from Jeffrey. I was sick to the bones, and my head kept on spinning and turning. I was half-dead, and the only reason I managed to keep my eyes open and stay strong was for my child’s sake.However, I was determined that I would reveal that Jeffrey was guilty once another day passed, since it would be five days since Xavier made his proclamation, and I couldn’t afford to go another day after tomorrow without food, water or medicine.Anyone could say that I was selfish and evil, but I didn’t care. Jeffrey was also being selfish, and I had tried long enough. Not only was I refused from eating or drinking, I also had to work like an elephant when I didn’t get even the tiniest thing that could feed an ant.Just that day, I had been made to wash tablecloths, sweep everyone else’s prison cells, draw water from the well, and presently, I was clearing out horse dung. My waist hurt, and it also felt as though a thousand hyenas wer
