My Absolute Alpha King

INTROSelene Valois did not think today would be her most remarkable (or unfortunate) day during her twenty-five years of existence. She diligently woke up at six AM like usual. Doing some quick meditation and stretching before she started her day, she drank her chrysanthemum tea, a gift from her beloved best friend Cécile when she went on her vacation in China two weeks ago.No, she thought her day would be a monotonous routine as usual.Woke up early,Meditated,Drank her tea, took her breakfast,a quick shower prepared her outfit,went to take the subway and then arrived at her office,fired up her laptop and started working in her cubicle. Just usual yadda yadda. But something was eerily calm this morning. Selene just could not put it into her mind or words. She was just feeling weird inside and began feeling her heart throbbing faster.She tiptoed into the big white window of her flat, which directly presented her with the blue sky and the hustle and bustle of her hometown.Hes

SELENESelene felt a pounding rhythm inside her head. She tried to open her eyes because the blinding lights in her surroundings really made her irritable and made the pounding stronger. And she also tried to move her hands to cover her eyes. Alas, her hands just stay limp beside her body. She understood she could not move her body as she wished because she was just regaining consciousness. When she finally opened her eyes, she saw intense black eyes staring back at her. His thick and full eyebrows furrowed deeper once Selene blinked. “How are you feeling?” His voice was hoarse but sounded exotic to her ears. Was it possible to get a shiver when you heard somebody talking? Because that was what Selene was feeling right now. “Hi…” she tried to say something, but her voice was small and cracked. “Do you want a glass of water?” Selene nodded, and the stranger rose from the plush leather chair beside her bed and went toward a cabinet where a pitch of cold water was there. Selene wa

SELENE She was an avid reader. Especially if it was a romance novel, be it with the mafia genre, sports romance, chick-lit, or her favorite was historical romance. She dabbled a bit in fantasy romance like the vampire-werewolf stories as well. What just came from the mouth of the most handsome person on earth was like the premise of a fantasy romance novel. “Come again?” Selene made sure she heard that right. “How was your coming-of-age celebration, Selene? Where is your pack and your Alpha? I couldn’t sense your wolf,” he continued to interrogate her. But whatever sentences uttered by him made her more confused. It felt nonsensical–but at the same time, this was as real as it got. Selene could only shake her head in confusion. “I don’t–I don’t understand a bit about what you said to me,” Selene said desperately. She was feeling constrained with all the overload sensories on her end. Selene needed time and space to process this information alone. She felt lonely and confu

After hearing that, her stomach magically produced the sound, announcing to the world that she was hungry. They stopped their walk momentarily before resuming the walk as if nothing happened. “Sorry about that,” she murmured in a low voice, mortified by the loud sound of her stomach. Sir Shiraz only nodded and did not say anything, whereas the maids were walking behind them, and Selene heard them giggling faintly. They finally arrived at the most prominent dining room she’s ever seen. It was a hall with a long table filled with fresh flowers, and at the side of the table, there was one seat already filled with tableware and hot meals served on the table. “Is this for me?” she looked up at Sir Shiraz, who stood still with an impassive expression. “Yes, Miss. The waiters are waiting over there if you need help. I will wait outside the door until you finish,” he said before he exited the room. Selene felt awkward when she had to eat alone in this excessive setting. But, she could not

They walked side by side. Lucius had to shorten his steps to balance her small steps. She was tiny compared to him. “Lucius,” she called him, and his guards gasped when they heard her calling his given name casually like that. “Oh, my bad! I mean… King, uh–” she flustered, trying to correct how she must address him. But Lucius only chuckled when he saw that and did not correct her. “It’s Your Majesty,” Shiraz jumped in from behind them. “You should call him His Majesty or Your Majesty,” he said. “Oh, yes, right. So, Your Majesty… can I get your permission to go to Ariadne Forest?” she asked him again. “Come again?” he asked. Making sure he heard her right. “I want to check the forest,” she replied. “There’s nothing there,” he replied curtly. He would not permit her to go there without him. “Why do you want to go there?” he sent her an inquisitive look. But inside, his wolf was angry that he would lose his Luna. “To check the portal. Maybe I can find any clues ther
