Her Alpha King CHAPTER THIRTY - FOUR
--Alyssa-I walked over to the only vacant seat, which happened to be near the Alpha King’s chair. The silence in the room was almost deafening, and it made me acutely aware of the multitude of eyes on me. I couldn’t help but wonder what they thought about me. Did they see me as bad? What were they thinking? Even the children were staring at me, their innocent eyes wide with curiosity.I sat down and greeted everyone politely, my voice barely more than a whisper.“Oh dear, it must have been so hard. I’m sure you’re going through a nervous breakdown,” a woman seated beside me said sympathetically, her eyes filled with concern.“What if you had been raped?” another woman interjected, tears welling up in her eyes.“Are you doing fine now?” yet another asked. They didn’t even wait for me to answer their questions; they just kept bombarding me with their worries and concerns.Their reactions made it clear they were feeling pity for me because I had almost been raped, not because I had trie

--Alyssa--"I always attend, but this year I won't be able to," Meridith continued, smiling despite her evident disappointment."Do other people from the Pack go as well?" I asked, hoping that at least I might see some familiar faces at the event."Yes, my aunties and uncles go as well," she said, which gave me some comfort. At least there would be people there who might not be complete strangers."You have to start getting prepared because it starts at six in the evening, and it's already four in the afternoon," she added. The tight timeline made me anxious. I was frustrated at the lack of notice. Why did Xavier want me to go with him when he never attended these events before? Now he wanted to drag me along on such short notice?But I had no choice. I couldn't afford to make him angrier than he already was. Suppressing my irritation, I forced a smile. "I’m sure there will be about a thousand people there," I said, trying to sound excited even though I was dreading it."See you tomor

--Alyssa--He slid his hand behind my waist, and I felt the familiar sparks once again. This sensation was consistent, and I knew he felt it too."Why are you in a revealing dress? I told them to inform you to choose a modest one," he whispered, his voice low and almost reprimanding. To the onlookers, it might have seemed like we were sharing a private, tender moment, but in reality, he was lecturing me about my dress choice."I like this one better than the rest," I replied defiantly. He fell silent, clearly not pleased but also not willing to argue further in front of everyone. I felt a small sense of victory, having stood my ground against him this time. His cologne was intoxicating, and I found myself wanting to get closer, to breathe in more of his scent. What are you doing, Alyssa? I chastised myself, shocked at the direction of my thoughts."Bambina," Xavier said softly, and I looked up at him. The nickname sent chills down my spine, and I hated how much I reacted to it. I shou

--Alyssa--“It’s for his business,” I heard her voice echo in my head. I was utterly shocked. No one in the pack had ever communicated with me through telepathy before; how was that even possible?“He is known as a businessman to the humans. He owns many businesses across the globe aside from being the Alpha,” she explained, leaving me even more astonished. The magnitude of his influence was overwhelming.“This gala is held on behalf of the companies he runs to give back to society. Just so you know, all his workers are werewolves, but his clients are both human and werewolf,” she continued, her voice filling my mind with images of the grandeur surrounding Xavier's enterprises. The notion that a single individual could manage such a vast network while maintaining his secret life as an Alpha was beyond impressive.“He is known as the business tycoon around the globe. If you search for his name on Google, you would see his name pop up as Xavier Kings, the most eligible bachelor who just

--Alyssa--"Please, you are to move to that table," the guy called Richie said to us.The table Richie directed us to was positioned at the head of the room, a spot that commanded attention and significance. It was a round table with five chairs arranged neatly around it, each chair upholstered in luxurious fabric. The table itself was covered with a pristine white cloth, adorned with a centerpiece of fresh flowers that added a touch of elegance to the setting.I moved steadily towards the table, being extra careful with each step. The last thing I wanted was to trip and fall, which would have been incredibly embarrassing in front of everyone. I had been comfortable where I was seated before, a less conspicuous spot that didn't draw much attention. Now, as we moved, I could feel the eyes of the room on us, curious and speculative.As we made our way, I heard snippets of conversations from the surrounding tables. "She is beautiful," someone murmured. The compliment was unexpected and m

--Alyssa--“Can I have the liberty of dancing with you, Mr. Kings?” The same lady in red who had bid against Xavier said, pulling him away from me. Her boldness and confidence were palpable, and I couldn’t help but feel a pang of irritation.As Xavier was whisked away, several people approached me, asking if I would like to dance. I declined each offer, not interested in dancing with anyone else. My mind was too preoccupied with the recent events and the feelings they stirred within me.“You looked beautiful on the dance floor, and the other women looked at you with jealousy, even the werewolves,” Lily said to me smiling.“Mr. Kings said that I should give this to you, Luna,” Richie said, handing me the earrings Xavier had bought. The delicate box seemed almost too fragile in his hands, the precious contents inside glinting under the soft light.“I knew that they were for you,” Lily said, her face lighting up with a happy smile as she admired the earrings. Her joy was infectious, but
Her Alpha King CHAPTER 40
--Alyssa--It had been two days since the ball, and I had been avoiding Xavier after that unexpected kiss. He looked stressed out, probably because there was a case at the border involving rogues. The timing couldn’t have been worse for us. He came in when I was asleep and left before I woke up. The kiss stirred up an unknown emotion in me, leaving me confused and conflicted. From feeling jealous at the ball to everything that happened that day, it all felt surreal.I blamed it on the mate bond that was making me feel things I never intended to feel. At this point, there was no way I could run because I was being watched like a hawk. I couldn’t even leave the palace, not even to go to the garden unless I was with someone. The guards adhered to their orders strictly because they all did not want to lose their jobs. This constant surveillance made me feel trapped and restless.I had been feeling giddy throughout the day. It was now the afternoon, and I didn’t even want to eat, that’s ho

--Alyssa--"We will be going to the Pack’s orphanage," she said to me, making me shocked.How does this Pack have an orphanage? Did the parents not want them?"How do you have an orphanage?" I asked, a little shocked because from the structure of the place everyone seemed to be living well."Some of the children are orphans because their parents have died, and others were abandoned at the Pack’s border," she explained to me, making me nod.How could anyone abandon a child at the Pack's border? Why was I complaining when I was left in a forest? At least the Pack's border was better than what I went through; an animal could have killed me, or a rogue."But I was not allowed to go out," I said to her."The Alpha King said we should go along with you so that you do not feel bored," she said, making me happy he had changed his mind.Quickly, I entered the closet, taking out a simple pair of jeans and a top, but it did not look simple no matter how I tried to change the tops."The girls are
