Protect Me, Alpha King 52. Plan
But, of course, Elijah was the total opposite of an asshole. It was difficult to hate him. And if he continued showing me this kind of luxury, it would become more complex. After a couple seconds, I said, ''Can I say something, Elijah?'' I asked while clutching the pendant. ''Yes. You may. Do not hesitate to say what is in your mind, River.'' ''Why are you doing this?'' His forehead knotted. "Doing what? I don't follow you.'' I sighed. ''Why are you being good to me? It's confusing on my part. Is that because you also see that woman in me? If we don't have the same similarity, will you still treat me like this?'' What was the point of not saying it out loud? If he wanted honesty, he should be able to handle my question. My gaze went back to the servants. They were still looking at us while pretending to sweep the ground. "Are we thinking about the same woman?" "None other than." He fell into deep thought and confessed, ''I never liked that woman, to begin with. If you resem
Protect Me, Alpha King 53. Fire Burning
In an instant, I closed the distance between us and put both of my hands on the hemline of the alpha king's hemline of his shirt while painting a smile on my lips. Alpha King Maxxwell did not like my smile, and his suspicions grew. Oops. I wiped my smile.Raising his eyebrows, he looked at me using his penetrating eyes, which I returned with the same intensity. "You're planning something, River. Whatever that is, you drop it. I have no time to play with your games."That was the alpha king. Nothing slipped under his nose. I beamed at him, pretending he did not catch me. "I don't understand what you are talking about, Your Majesty. I'm just helping you take a bath. Nothing else."He narrowed his gaze at me. "You smiled sweetly, but something's telling me you have an evil plan.""Evil? I don't have evil plans, Your Majesty," I retorted with an innocent look on my face. "May I?" I asked before I took off his jacket, followed by his undershirt, and set them aside. I stopped when I s
Protect Me, Alpha King 54. Defeat
The alpha king raised his brow, disbelief in his eyes. "So I am right. You did plan something, River. I hate to break it to you, but you will not succeed."It would be a silent battle between us—an ongoing one. "I did not say I have plans, Your Majesty."I grabbed the bar of soap and asked, "May I?" He nodded. With that, I rubbed the soap all over his chest. He remained silent, not saying anything, as I continued rubbing the soap. Using the bubbles, I scrubbed the dirt and dried blood all over his body. He moaned, savoring the comfort I was giving him."At last, you finally did your job, River."The hemline of my clothes was already wet as some water splashed towards me. "This is my plan, Your Majesty. To serve you. I want to redeem myself. If you are thinking of other things, you are mistaken." He opened one of his eyes. "You know what it is. Don't play dumb with me."I chuckled and returned the bar soap. "You never believe what I say, do you, Your Majesty?"He leaned his head on
Protect Me, Alpha King 55. The Marking?
The alpha king is kissing me? What is happening? What is happening? my mind asked in disbelief. Why is he kissing me now?"Respond to my kisses, River. You want this badly from the start," he muttered when I stayed still like a barbecue stick. "And now I am kissing you, and you're unresponsive dampening desire."The alpha king bit my lower lip, making me gasp. Using that opportunity, he slipped his tongue into mine, teasing me, promising me what might happen if I let go. However, I continued to be unresponsive, trying to decipher his actions and the sudden mood change. What the heck? I told him I had accepted my defeat and that I'll start recognizing that he would never mark me.Still dealing with the confusion, I put both hands around his chest and pushed him away. No matter how much I wanted to return his kisses. Breathing heavily, I looked at him, dumbfounded. "Why are you kissing me, Your Majesty?"The corner of his mouth lifted. "Why? You don't like it?" he inquired back. "Now
Protect Me, Alpha King 56. Mated
The alpha king's bite on my shoulder blade was burning, and then it was replaced by pleasure as if he had just penetrated me. Our minds were suddenly interconnected, feeling each other's emotions. Desire. Passion. I didn't even know if it was coming from me or not. Everything felt surreal. Then, I saw a black wolf staring back at me and howling. Was it the alpha king’s wolf? The scenery changed, and I saw myself with the alpha king. No. It was not me. The woman had no curls on her hair. It was the opposite. Zenith? Did I see the flashback of the alpha king’s memory?I shuddered in his arms while he supported my weight. Giving his final touch, the alpha king licked the wound and pulled away. "Congratulations, River. Now, you carry my mark and scent for the rest of your life. And like I said, aside from power, you will also gain enemies. My enemies, they will be after your life. And I cannot protect you at all times. This is the consequence that my mark bearer will face."Feeling ligh
Protect Me, Alpha King 57. The Twin's
Clara and Flare rubbed their chins together. They couldn't look me in the eyes, showing how guilty they were for their past sins. "What did the two of you do, huh? Why did you say you were also the reason Zenith died? Did the two of you push her to her death?"Their long silence told me they were not ready to answer, but I wouldn't say I liked their closed lips. I wanted to know more about Zenith."Clara! Flare!" I exclaimed, grabbing their attention, held them both in their arms, and shook them. They gulped. "Were you her murderer?"Their eyes kept darting back and forth. Oh, Moon Goddess. I did not know how I would react if they were indeed murderers. That would be too much to handle. "Please don't make me overthink any longer. You're only making it worse."As if they were sharing a mind link, they nodded and faced me. "It's not like that." Gathering courage together, they said, "We also were against their relationship, just like anyone here. We bullied Zenith. We told her ha
Protect Me, Alpha King 58. Grow Some Balls
After a few minutes, the twins, nearly bathing in their sweat, returned and informed me that the carriage was already waiting for me outside. "River, do you want to change your mind?" Clara and Flare asked in unison after checking if I had forgotten something. Their eyes were still in worry. "You don't know how dangerous it is to travel alone.""I have the coachman," I joked, trying to appease their mind. "Stop fussing for me. I can do it perfectly.""But….""Nonsense. Why don't you cover for me, and if the alpha king happens to arrive first and looks for me, tell him I am running an errand."They looked at each other. "Are you sure about this?"With all honesty, I was not that certain if I could pull it off. Going back to the slave auction house brought many painful memories not worth keeping, but I still had to go. "I'll come back if I will gain nothing from there.""Do you know whom to look for, River?""Master Henderson, the one who was supervising the auction house." The man al
Protect Me, Alpha King 59. Master Henderson
I felt terrible for Delta Isagani after what I said. He wore the saddest expression he could muster while looking at me. I was tempted to take back my words, but I was certain no one was telling him he was already making a fool out of himself. "I am aware I am a coward when it comes to Lady Juliana, River." Quite the opposite when it comes to rogues. He was one of the bravest warriors of the alpha king, but when it came to his mate, it was the opposite."And it is time to change that, Delta Isagani. Or you can accept the two of you have no chance at all as long as Lady Juliana is still after the alpha king.""I will wait for Lady Juliana. I know she will realize my importance."I rolled my eyes at him. "It will never happen. She's greedy for power. And if I were you, I would no longer associate myself with that kind of woman. You deserve better than her.""Lady Juliana is the only one for me."There we go again.This conversation was over. There was no way I would get another fruitfu
