Liana's POV

The silence in the room did nothing to help. If anything, all it did was increase the already brewing tension in the air, and if nothing was done to stop it, then it wouldn't exactly be a pretty scene when things brew out of proportion.

I wanted to speak, to at least say something and cut through the tension in the air, but what was I going to say? No matter what I did or how I tried, I wasn't sure anything was going to stop the calamity from happening. I wasn't an overly pessimistic person, but it was already set in stone, and nothing, absolutely nothing could change that.

I forced my attention back to the screen in front of me. In the last couple of minutes, it hadn't moved nor shook. Maybe if the CCTV footage was still playing, we could have easily gone with the fact that maybe we hadn't watched it properly and we were mistaking the thief for Irene

But that wasn't the case. It really was Irene in the frozen frame, and a shiver ran down my spine.

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 1

    LIANA“And when you're done with those, just make sure to check if the other rooms are clean and if they aren't, then you should clean them” Mom said.I've been doing menial jobs all day since morning. Most of these chores were supposed to be done by my sister but my parents insisted I should do them because Samantha doesn't want to do them. It's basically the norm now, I have to do the chores that she doesn't want to, anytime she says she doesn't want to do them which is mostly always because she's nothing but a lazy ass girl who wants to do nothing but enjoy while I suffer for her laziness. “I don't think I would be able to do that, Mom. It's my anniversary with Ryle and I want to go home so we can celebrate it together. I told you about this earlier but you seem to be indulging your daughter who should be doing this. You should get Samantha here and let her do the job she was supposed to do in the first place* I rarely talked back to either of my parents but I can't take this on

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 2

    LIANAI spent the next two days avoiding all of them. My parents didn't even try to get in touch with me and I preferred it that way. For the entirety of the two days, I was mostly going out to feed when I was sure no one was around and that suited me. The only thing I couldn't afford not to attend was pack meetings. If I was going to be alpha, I can't afford missing any of them. But that also meant that I would have to see Samantha and my parents. During one of the pack meetings, Samantha cornered me. I thought she was coming to gloat like she did the other day at the house but it seemed like if she didn't have anyone behind her, she was just a toothless dog. She saw me trying not to talk to her and she planted herself in front of me. “You're being childish, Liana” She accused me when she finally got a hold of me. I tried to excuse myself but she was being adamant. I sighed and faced her. It's pointless to try to ignore her now. “How am I being childish?” I asked her even though

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 3

    LIANAI took the rogue to the pack hospital and waited until he was admitted. The doctor informed me that he would be fine and that was the only reason I felt like going back home.I kept thinking about what Samantha did and how much pain the guy must be feeling. I also wondered why he was there and how he got injured. Since there was no one I could tell about him, I realized it was now my responsibility to make sure he was fine which would include daily checkups until he was discharged. The doctors had thankfully asked no questions since I couldn't provide answers to them. I didn't even know his name or where he had come from in the first place. When I got home, I realized the house was empty which was strange considering the fact that Samantha was usually frolicking around with Ryle to spite me. I figured I could enjoy the peace and quiet before they come back and start again. They were usually very loud but I've let it not bother me. In the morning, an announcement was passed ab

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 4

    Liana’s POV I couldn't believe my ears. No, scratch that. I didn't want to. The world around me stilled, and I found father's words echoing in my ears Your bags are in the car. Leave. Even in a million years, there was no way I would have seen this coming. Yes, things between me and dad were rough thanks to the unfortunate incident, but I never thought it would end up this way. First he stripped me of my title of being alpha, and now he was kicking me out of the house too? Why? What the hell did I do to deserve this? I knew father was somewhat w disciplinarian, but this punishment was too much. Even for him. I wasn't a pessimistic person, but I wouldn't be exaggerating if I said I preferred death over everything that had happened today. Like my life wasn't already a mess, Ryle had to reject me too. “Didn't you hear me?” Dad's voice cut through my thoughts, pulling me back to earth. I blinked back a couple of times, while I muttered a prayer to the moon goddess. Perhaps

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 5

    Liana's POV I was stunned. It didn't happen pretty often, but when it did, then best believe that it was worth it. Right now, I wasn't even sure that was the right word to use. Worth it, didn't even come close. I blinked back a couple of times, still not wanting to believe the magnificent palace in front of me. It's sky high rooftops seemed to be touching the tip of the clouds and sky, and thanks to sky high windows, it looked nothing less than something straight out of a modern fairytale. “I take it you like it then?” Kieran spoke up, pulling me out of my thoughts. I turned to him immediately, and I didn't miss the amusement dancing in his eyes. “It tends to have that effect on people.”“You said you were taking me home.” I retorted. I was in no mood for games, and only when I'd gotten a satisfactory answer, would I indulge in any of his games. “Your home.”“Yes.” He drawled, uncertainty lacing his voice. “I fail to see your point, Liana.”My name tumbled past his lips with su

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 6

    Liana's POV I couldn't believe my ears. Her words echoed in my ears, and no matter how hard I tried to push it out, it just wouldn't budge. They were stuck in my head, like a radio playing on loop, and honestly, I wasn't too sure how long I could take it for. I stared at her, waiting for the slightest shift in her expression. Maybe she would burst into a wide grin after a couple of seconds, with the words I was only messing with you on her lips, but it never came. In fact, as time slowly ticked by, I realized that little imagination I just had, might never happen. Shit. “Wait.” I shook my head slowly. “Are you serious? Did you really mean that?”“I'm sorry.” Her face fell. “I really wish I could help you, but I don't have the right to do that.”“So what do you have the right to do then?’ my voice came out louder than I wanted. She flinched, and I knew that I should have felt bad for scaring her, but I didn't. Instead, it only infuriated me all the more. “tell me! Serve me fo

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 7

    Liana's POV My body thrummed with excitement, and my pulse raced in my ears. I had no idea what was on the other side of the door, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited. In fact, excited couldn't even begin to describe how I felt right now. I might not have gotten the answers I wanted and was looking for, but maybe this door might solve all of my problems. Not only would I find out everything I wanted to know about it, I would do it without his knowledge too. “Okay Liana.” My fingers grazed the door handle. The metal was cool against my palm and I found myself gripping on to it harder. “You got this. You got this. All you have to do is push open this door and…”“Don't you dare!” Someone voice boomed behind me, causing me to halt in my tracks. My eyes widened, and I struggled to find an escape. There was no way I could escape even if I tried and even if I did escape, it would take Kieran absolutely nothing to find me again. Or maybe I could make a run for it. I wasn'

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 8

    Liana's POV I'd never wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole more than I did right now. My entire body was on fire, and it had nothing to do with the dream I had just a couple of minutes. Instead, I burned from embarrassment. How much had he heard? How long had he been sitting there for? What did he think of me right now? Did he think I was some slut or probably someone who couldn't keep her urges in check? I groaned internally, as I pushed the many thoughts aside. If I thought about it too much, then best believe that there was no way I would be able to get anything done at all. I would just focus on it, and I hated it. I stared at Kieran's face, my eyes searching for even the slightest bit of an emotional betrayal. Maybe if I had even so much as the tiniest idea about how he felt, I would know how to move forward from here. But , he didn't. His face was stoic and I felt the urge to scream out loud. I wasn't a mind reader either, so there was no way to try to figu

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 59

    Liana's POV I should have known today would end badly when I woke up on the wrong side of bed this morning. People always said you would get cranky if you woke up on the wrong side of bed, but mine was slightly different. Whenever I woke up wrongly, it was an automatic indication that my day was going to end up badly. It usually started from the moment I opened my eyes, up until the break of dawn, but when today started out fairly well, I jomestly thought my bad luck streak had ended, but I was wrong. Very very wrong. The goddess was only keeping the best for last, or in this case,the worst for last. I didn't want to believe what had just happened, I couldn't believe it. No matter how many times the guards words echoed in my ears, it still didn't make any sense. We found the crystal, sir. He'd said. We found it in between some of her belongings. What? There was no way that was possible. I had left my room in the morning, I had arranged everything and I didn't for once see the

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 58

    Kieran's POV They said years of experience usually prepped you for any mishap that would come your way, but believe me when I said nothing, even in a million years could have prepared me for what had just happened. I couldn't believe it, I didn't want to believe it because there was just no way it was possible, at least, that was what my mind kept on whispering to me. But as I stared at the guard, and also took in the shocked expression on the rest of my guests, something in me couldn't help but snap. This was really happening. The lunar crystal was really missing. I blinked back a couple of times. Maybe if I did that well enough, this entire scenario would morph into something different, something where the event was going well and my guard hadn't just announced to everyone that the crystal was missing.But noatrer how hard I hoped, and the time that slipped by, nothing changed, and no one moved. This was actually real. Shit. “Are you sure?” I turned to the guard again. H

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 57

    Liana's POV Some days in the palace were uneventful, and by that, I meant there were little to no chores for the maids to do. If I was being honest, those were the kinds of days I looked up to. If I had my way, that would be the only kind of days I got to experience in the palace. Ever since my little demotion from grace to grass, I could count a few uneventful days, and by few, I meant just one. Irene had made it a personal conviction to make my life miserable and a living hell too. I hated to admit it, but she was succeeding, and if that wasn't the worst thing to have ever happened to me, then I had no idea what else would suffice. Since today was nothing like the uneventful days, it was worse. I'd woken up earlier than I usually did, and it wasn't something I looked forward to. My task today was to make the palace clean and spotless in time for the Lunar council meeting. Apparently, it was held every year and in different packs too. I didn't know a lot about it, but I could

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 56

    Kieran's POV My emotions were a mess, but for the life of me, I couldn't bring myself to dwell on them. In fact, I didn't even want to. Doing that would only make me more mad and probably heartbroken and that was the last thing I needed right now. A million and one thoughts ran through my mind, but a good number of them all revolved around Liana. No, scratch that. All of them revolved around Liana. Last night had passed by quicker than I would like, but best believe that I would relive that moment every minute of my life if I had too. Finally getting close to Liana was like a breath of fresh air, but nothing could top the little confession I'd give earlier today. I hadn't planned it. In fact, I'd done that in a state of panic, without giving a single thought to how she would react, or what the hell would follow after it. Had things gone differently than I'd expected? Yes. Did I regret it? Not at all. Liana was only going through a lot at the moment, and I told myself that

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 55

    Liana's POV Even after convincing myself that I was going to have to grow a tough shell if I wanted to survive here, it still didn't make it any easier. Wrong. They didn't make it any easier. Their laughter reached my ears, and I would be lying if I said it didn't affect me. Every now and then they howled in pure joy, and I felt a piece of my heart break all the more. I knew I needed to leave their presence, but for some strange reason, I just couldn't bring myself to move. My feet felt like lead, and I felt my knees buckle beneath me. The air around me tightened, but none of this stopped the girls from gossiping. “Can you even imagine that?” Penelope chuckled loudly. “she has audacity, I'll give her that. What exactly was she thinking? That she could just walk in here and take over the palace?’ “She's a very dense girl.” Another maid laughed, and they giggled in agreement. “I thought she was smart, but apparently she's just so stupid. Did she really think her pussy would ma

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 54

    Liana's POV My mornings had been following a particular routine in the last one week, and even though I wasn't particularly sure how I felt about it, I couldn't exactly bring myself to complain about it. It might sound degrading but I didn't exactly have a choice, at least a boring routine with a roof over your head was better than none, right? Even if the said roof came with one problem or the other. I didn't have a choice. I was going to have to deal with it, whether I liked it or not. My memory of last night had been in shambles when I'd woken up. All I knew was that Irene had embarrassed and insulted me in front of everyone. Like I didn't already have so much on my plate, I had to wake up to a naked man on my bed, and not just any man. Fucking Kieran. The moment I laid my eyes on him, memories of last night came rushing by. How he'd insisted on coming in, how I'd melted into his skin when he'd huffed me, how I hadn't pushed him back when he pressed his lips against mine, h

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 55

    Kieran's POV I had no idea what had gotten into me, but best believe I didn't regret what I'd just done. One minute I had my arms around Liana, my hands going up and down her back, while my fingers drew small circles into her skin. When I was headed back to my room, I never in a million years thought that I was going to catch a glimpse of Liana running to her room, and in tears too. It had caught me off guard, and right there and then, I swore I was going to find out the reason behind her tears, or the person involved too. I knew pacifying her was going to be a hard task, but this, this was just a lot to comprehend. In all the time we'd spent together, I wasn't sure I'd seen her cry this much before. From her body movement, you could tell she was beyond hurt and my body itched to find out who it was that was responsible for her discomfort. If she had at least mentioned a name, then best believe that the unfortunate soul she'd call would definitely be six feet under by now. I ha

  • Mated To The Alpha King   Chapter 52

    Liana's POV The air in the room was thick with tension, and I knew it would take a miracle to slice it clean without any casualties, especially now that Irene was involved. When I'd slapped Penelope, I didn't think Irene would show up. Hell, I didn't even know she was around the corner and neither did I think what I was about to do through. I was so mad that she had the guts to spread lies about me, and all because of what? Just so she and the other maids could keep on talking about me? Heaven knows I wanted to ignore her, but to what extent? How long was I going to keep on keeping quiet and what was that going to do to me In the long run? It was only going to break me down and I would belittle myself in front of everyone. I didn't want that, so I did what I had to do, and maybe, just maybe I might be regretting my decisions already. “Are you all deaf?” Irene shrieked, pulling me back to the present. I blinked back a couple of times, just to come face to face with a furious
