In Bed With My Possessive Alpha King

Chapter 1: King of All Living Beings

…

There was once a tale spread by a Moon Priest thousands of years ago, a prophecy that spoke of the birth of a king, a king who would take the form of a human, born from a true wolf, and stronger than any beast that had ever walked the earth.

He would be known as the Beast King, the King of All Thrones, the ruler of all living beings on earth, 100% wolf, 100% human, 100% beast. His power would be great enough to defeat the Demon King who ruled the underworld.

But the Beast King was cursed because of his extraordinary power. He would become a Beast King without a Luna, for his descendants were forbidden from setting foot upon the earth.

When the king of all living beings was born, the power of every other king would weaken. The Alpha King, the Human King, and the Demon King would all feel it.

The tale spread widely, and when it was spoken during a gathering of the Alpha Kings, the Moon Priest who told it was immediately executed for defiling the throne of the Wolf King.

Yet the story lived on in the mind of the Wolf King himself—Gargan Noctyrr Noar, who was already 9,800 years old and had ruled the High Kingdom of Lupus for thousands of years.

Until one night…

“Ughhh!”

Gargan’s body suddenly began to glow. In his sleep, he transformed into a mighty jet-black wolf, but a few seconds later his body shrank, and when he awoke, Gargan felt as if something had vanished from within him.

“What is it, my king? You look very pale.” His wife, his true Luna Malya Hycte, touched her husband’s shoulder. He looked deathly pale and suddenly much thinner.

Gargan growled, his eyes burning like fire as he stared at the moon, which shone brighter than ever before.

“Find him! Find that baby for me! Kill him!” Gargan Noctyrr Noar roared at the moon, defying the will of the Moon Goddess.

For Gargan knew, the legend had truly come to pass. The king of all living beings had been born. Gargan could feel it; half of his power had disappeared.

At the same moment, the Human King experienced the same thing. He aged rapidly and lay weak, unable to do anything.

And in the underworld, the Demon King crushed a mountain with his bare hands, his eyes blazing as terrifying red flames devoured everything around him.

The seal of the underworld, said to have been created by the Moon Goddess herself to prevent the catastrophe caused by the Demon King shook violently and began to weaken.

The world trembled because of his birth.

Twelve years later…

Gargan Noctyrr Noar grew weaker with each passing day. His body became thinner, his temper more violent. He killed wolves and half-wolves for the smallest mistakes.

He was a cruel and terrifying king.

Especially because he could not sense the presence of the child, the one said to bring down his throne.

“He’s coming! He’s coming!” 

“Gather all the Moon Council and every Alpha Pack, now!” Gargan snarled at his wife, Malya Hycte, his body growing weaker.

“Yes, My King.” Malya could not refuse. Though she was a High Luna, she no longer felt loved by her husband. She immediately ordered her servants to summon everyone as quickly as possible.

By order of the Alpha King, all elders and packs gathered in the grand meeting hall of the palace.

The Blackthorn Pack, the strongest military pack, sat upright. Elsewhere were the Nightveil Pack, the pack directly under the King, guardians of the throne and intelligence.

There was the Ironfang Pack, guardians of the kingdom’s borders; the Mooncrest Pack, the spiritual and healing pack; and the Silverhowl Pack, responsible for diplomacy and politics.

They all gathered, and the moment the Alpha King arrived supported by his wife, they immediately stood and bowed deeply.

He sat upon the magnificent throne he would never hand over to anyone.

“He will come, the filthy blood they say will destroy my throne!”

“The wolf race is the strongest race in the universe! There is no way the Moon Goddess would grant a king who takes a 100% human form. That is an insult to our kingdom!” Gargan roared. He could feel an immense power drawing closer, and so he gathered all his forces to destroy that disgusting being.

At his words, whispers spread throughout the hall.

Then one of the Moon Council elders spoke.

“My King, I believe you are right that a true wolf descendant could never possess a 100% human form. And if such a being appeared, we would have to kill him. However, to my knowledge, this is nothing more than a legend. For more than twelve years, your strongest warriors have searched every corner of the land and found nothing. I believe Your Majesty is exhausted and should rest.”

Elder Thorne Grimwald spoke firmly yet respectfully. He was a senior elder, advisor, and policymaker of the kingdom.

Beside him stood Elder Virex Lunaris, who also agreed with Thorne Grimwald.

Hearing this, Alpha King Gargan exploded with rage. He growled and transformed into his true wolf form. He was still the Wolf King, possessing absolute power to dominate all wolves.

“Bastard! How dare you doubt my words!”

“I don’t care if you are an elder or not. I sentence you to death!” Gargan roared, shocking everyone.

In the history of the High Kingdom of Lupus, there had never been an execution of a Moon Council elder. The only precedent was the Moon Priest executed thousands of years ago.

Thus, the Wolf King’s decision was seen as a violation of royal law and the will of the Moon Goddess.

“My King, I believe you have gone too far. Executing a Moon Council elder is the same as defying the Moon Goddess, it is a fatal insult,” Elder Virex Lunaris said calmly, though his fists were clenched tightly.

“You too are sentenced to death! How dare you question my decision, I am the Wolf King! Anyone who dares oppose me will die!” Gargan roared, plunging the hall into chaos.

The Alpha Packs moved into position. No matter what happened, they had to protect the Alpha King that was their primary purpose.

The tension grew unbearable. The air felt scorching and suffocating, until…

Every fur on their bodies stood on end. Not a single one of them dared move. This was not the Alpha King’s power, but the power of someone standing beyond the massive doors at the far end of the hall.

A power greater than the Alpha King’s, one that forced heads to bow and hearts to race.

Even the Alpha King himself could not move. Fear gripped him. Wolves were apex predators who feared nothing but whatever stood beyond that door made them feel like insignificant dust.

The grand doors slowly opened.

Gargan Noctyrr Noar’s eyes widened. His chest tightened, his body trembling violently.

“My King,” his wife quickly grabbed his hand and supported him.

As he collapsed, all the wolves including the Moon Council, Moon Priests, and all Alpha Packs fell to their knees, their heads unbearably heavy.

“Brother, Gargan Noctyrr Noar. It has been a long time.”

The familiar voice ignited Gargan’s fury.

It was the voice of his younger brother, the one he had exiled to the borders of the underworld after a battle for the throne.

Galilea Noctyrr Noar stepped forward, accompanied by his Luna, his wife Nimia Valecrest.

Between them stood a young man.

A youth of commanding presence, human in appearance, with icy blue eyes as sharp as a demon’s and jet-black hair. Each step he took made the ground tremble.

Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest.

The biological son of the Wolf King’s own brother. A pure true-wolf descendant who had taken a 100% human form now stood before them.

The legend was real.

All wolves bowed. The Wolf King had lost his power and was utterly weakened.

“Kill him!” 

“I order you, kill him!”

“Aaaaa!” Gargan Noctyrr Noar screamed, but he was too weak. His Alpha King power vanished in an instant.

Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest’s existence absorbed all his power, just as the Moon Priest’s prophecy had foretold thousands of years ago.

“Just as the tale foretold, a prophecy of the future, the king has been born from the womb of my beloved wife, Nimia Valecrest. And we come by order of the Moon Goddess to take over the Alpha King’s throne, starting now!”

Galilea Noctyrr Noar’s voice echoed, enraging the Moon Council. The Alpha King’s throne could not be taken so easily but they could do nothing. The young man’s power was far beyond their comprehension.

“Aaarrggg!” Gargan screamed. He would die if he continued to look at Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest, he knew it.

That was why his loyal warriors and followers forcibly shifted into wolf form and fled the palace, carrying their king away.

Some of them could not accept that someone with a 100% human form would take the Wolf King’s throne.

Inside the palace, within the vast and magnificent hall, all Alpha Packs remained. It was instinct, for a new king now stood before them.

“King Lucien Noctyrr Noar, we welcome you.”

One of the strongest Alpha warriors, Cillian Blackthorn, stepped forward with his wife Lilian Blackthorn.

Cillian Blackthorn was a powerful Alpha, the commander of the kingdom’s greatest army. His instincts told him that the young man before him was the new king he must serve.

After Cillian bowed, all Alpha Packs followed, as did the Moon Council and Moon Priests who honored the Moon Goddess’s will.

The new king of wolves and all living beings had arrived.

Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest was only twelve years old. Yet his unimaginable power had not fully awakened. His true power would rise when he turned seventeen, and only then would he be officially crowned by the Moon Council.

…

Days passed.

Lucien Noctyrr Valecrest grew up in a harsh world. Hunted since birth, he trusted no one except his parents. He became cold and arrogant.

He showed no mercy to anyone who tried to kill him or harm his parents.

Now, bored, Lucien wandered alone through the forest near the palace. The forest was dense, sunlight barely penetrating its depths.

His steps moved without direction, as if something guided him forward. From a distance, his icy blue eyes caught sight of something unusual.

“Ah…”

A small girl fell from a tree branch into a deep, dark lake.

Lucien frowned and moved closer.

“Is she committing suicide?” he whispered.

Moments later, the small girl resurfaced, holding a tiny white rabbit that had fallen from the tree.

She had golden hair, green eyes, and countless scratches covering her hands, signs of a harsh life.

“Lecy, why did you jump? Why were you so scared?”

The girl hugged the white rabbit, her only friend in the forest.

Earlier that day, the rabbit had suddenly become restless and leapt into the black lake, forcing her to jump in after it.

Then the rabbit wriggled free and ran back into the forest.

A strong wind suddenly blew.

The girl heard footsteps. When she turned toward the sound, her eyes widened like the most beautiful crystal.

Before her stood a man of imposing presence, his expression cold and cruel.

The young king, destined to live in loneliness, met someone strange, a golden-haired girl who made everything around him feel different.

“Elena…”

A voice broke the sudden silence.

Not recognizing the man, Elena immediately lowered her head and stood frozen in fear, clenching her hands in front of her, unable to speak before this human man.
