And this is the end of 'The Alpha King's Bride' I want to say thank you to all my readers who read it this far, rhbk you so much! It was nice sharing the beautiful yet complicated love story of both Vivian and Styx with you all... Thank you!!!
Chapter 1With a bouquet in her hand, Vivian walked through the aisle with a sullen expression on her face. Her eyes were calm, too calm but deep down she was battling with her emotions. She could feel their eyes on her, their scornful eyes. She was sacrificing her life for them but that still wasn't enough to put an end to the hatred they had for her. To them, she was a curse, a curse they needed to get rid of by giving her off to the bloodthirsty werewolves. She was getting married to their king and what they also called their Alpha. Getting married to a man, she wasn't allowed to even see his picture, she was getting married to a total stranger. They only told her that he was bedridden, he was an old man and she would have to take care of him for the rest of her life. Her life was on the line but they didn't care, they never did. She was cursed after all and they needed to get rid of her, to get rid of her bad luck.She finally reached the altar, facing the priest who had a smile
Vivian stood in front of the carriage ready to leave. Her eyes were calm yet her heart was aching badly. She felt suffocated and her wedding gown wasn't helping at all. Her eyes were on the huge castle, a place that was her home for the past 19 years now even though this castle and the kingdom had done nothing but give her pain, she would still miss her home. She would miss all the happy memories and sad ones. But most importantly, the little memories she has of her mother."You shouldn't have accepted the proposal, Vivian. We could have found a way to call off the marriage proposal or better still, Lucy, I would have made her accept the marriage" said Eve. Her eyes were close to tears and she was trying her best not to break down in front of Vivian. Once again, she was useless when it came to helping Vivian. She was powerless and there was nothing she could do. If only she could convince Sebastian. If only Sebastian will act like a father for once and care for his own daughter. There
Vivian ran as fast her legs could, she ran as if her life depended on it. She was now regretting her decision to marry Alpha...Alpha Styx. Instead of having to die in the hands of a bloodthirsty werewolf or waiting for death. It would be better for her to just end her life at that moment.One of the guards spotted her running and shouted, "Princess Vivian!" The remaining two guards left the carriage and ran after her.Not bothering to take a look behind her, she kept running and running till she lost sight of the guards. She stopped, holding on to a tree, gasping for air. She should have thought of this earlier instead of troubling herself with all these. It would have been better if the Alpha had come for the wedding, they would have gotten married and she would have left him a present, her death. Her eyes were on the cliff in front of her, she walked towards the cliff with a smile on her face. She stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down and hoping that the ground wasn't that f
Vivian's journey to Gael continued, not in a carriage with the guards but with a werewolf who claimed to be Alpha Styx's advisor and forced her to walk to the palace with him. Someone she couldn't help but be scared of."You must hate Alpha Styx a lot?" Karl commented, his lips curling into a smile. This was the first time he would see a lady, choosing to rather die than to marry his Alpha. Alpha Styx was ruthless, but the ladies still couldn't help but fall at his feet which was why he found Vivian's behavior... interesting. Vivian let out a sigh and responded; "I don't hate him, I'm scared of spending the rest of my life with a bedridden man""Bedridden?" Karl asked, confused."Yes! According to the rumors I have heard so far, Alpha Styx is one of the weak werewolves. He has been bedridden for years now and he also..." Vivian stopped for a while, she gazed around to see if no one was there. "Stinks!""Oh?!" Karl mumbled quietly, he bit his lips to stop himself from laughing. How he
"I'll put her to a much better use, Leo. She'll be my favorite toy, my favorite sex toy""Styx!" Leo yelled, he finally lost his anger. "She's your...""If I had known you held me with such high esteem..." Vivian paused, staring deep into Styx's eyes. She was never expecting a warm welcome but this was far from something she expected. "I would have been here a bit earlier, Alpha.. No, master?" Vivian said with a smile."Princess Vivian?" Leo mumbled silently. He brushed his hair with his fingers, frustrated and angry. Styx kept his gaze at the woman not far from him. He stared at her for a while and as if she never existed, he removed his gaze from her, ignoring her.'I hate him already,' Vivian mused, cursing Styx in her mind. "My lady, Alpha Styx was just... joking. Yes, he was only joking!" Leo tried to explain, the last thing he wanted was for Vivian to return back to her Kingdom with hatred for them. Their marriage was the only way they could bring back the balance between the
Vivian was still on the ground, still in the same position Alpha Styx had left her in. Recently, she had been too lazy to do so many things and one of them was stressing her body. This would be her first time in the palace after all and she had no idea where she had to go. So, she just decided to wait for the Alpha here until she remembers her. Who knows, he might fall for her then after seeing how stubborn and cute she is."What are you doing?" asked Karl, walking into the courtroom. Vivian raised her head, staring into his eyes and then let out a frustrated sigh. "I was only trying to seduce him, you know. He said I was his sex toy after all and I was trying to show him how thankful I am," Karl gazed at her for a while as if he was trying to possess everything that was happening. For a while, he couldn't help but wonder if she was the same person that tried to kill herself a few hours ago. Now, she was just sitting down here acting all... childish?He let out a deep sigh and said;
"He's supposed to be old and bedridden?!" Vivian yelled. She didn't remember when she saw him for the first time in the courtroom. No woman would be in her right senses, hearing a man and her so-called groom calling her a sex toy. "And you believed it," Karl replied, raising his eyebrows. He would have told her back in the forest but he thought it would be more fun when she realized that the rumors were wrong. He was already anticipating how her reaction would be but then Alpha Styx had to ruin all the fun. Why must he call her a sex toy the second they arrived at the courtroom?! But...this is also enough to compensate for his previous loss."Don't blame me, blame the rumors!" Vivian snapped. Come to think about it, how come she didn't remember when she saw him back at the courtroom? She...like every single person in her kingdom had the belief that the man she was getting married to was an old, bedridden man. That was why they were more eager to get her married to him. They hated her
'Drowning!'She gasped for air, trying so hard to open her eyes but she couldn't. She felt suffocated and no matter how hard she tried to get out, she couldn't. Her breath was getting uneven and then..."I told you I'll be back for you didn't I?"A soft voice sounded in her ears, that voice. It was the same voice she had gotten used to over the ears. The voice that had come to hunt her ever since her mother left her alone."You can never get away from me, little girl!""I'll soon be with you,""Ahh," Vivian moaned softly, opening her eyes. She looked around, trying to process where she saw. She sat down, wiping the sweat that had formed on her forehead.She turned to look at the open window. It was past midnight already, she stood up and walked towards the balcony. Vivian was still in her ripped wedding gown. Her eyes were calm and sad. She brushed her fingers through her hair, frustrated. She let out a sigh, staring keenly at the moon. There were a lot of things going on in her min
