ALPHA KING XALEN

~<>~

I had to wait almost impatiently for her to realize we were in a different room, and I was fortunate to see every twinkle that lit up in her eyes as realization slowly settled into her. I watched every second of it and couldn’t hold back my smile when she looked back at me.

A sweet sensation zapped through my heart when she asked with wide, confused eyes, “Where are we?” Then she added, “We are not in your bedroom in the palace, are we?”

Before my kids could catch on, I shook my head. “No, Hay, we are not in my bedroom in the palace. Actually, we are in OUR bedroom in OUR palace and home.”

Disbelief clouded my mate’s eyes as my words hit her, but before I could fully enjoy the moment, my son butted in, “Yes, Haylee. Dad built us a new home. It’s so pretty, but smaller than our previous home.”

Oh goddess.

How do I tell my son I didn’t build us a new home but built a new home for Haylee without hurting his feelings? Heck, he wouldn’t even understand me until he gro

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   280. Broken, Wailing Mess

    HAYLEE~~The second Gladys used the word “death,” I felt a million and one emotions crashing into me and going straight for my already aching heart.I might not act like it, but I heard every word she said. Each one pierced into my skin, inflicting an indescribable pain on my soul. The past twenty-four hours of my life seemed to be so extra. I mean, I couldn’t even find the right words to describe or express all that had happened.And from experience, I might never find those words.“If it’s too much for her, I hope you can let go of your desires and make the right decision for her,” Gladys concluded after telling me that I might have to let the mother I was yet to know die.Did she say if it gets to be too much? Fuck, this was too much for me. My body was constantly experiencing pain in different forms and on various levels. I didn’t know just how much more I could take.But I still wouldn’t want to keep Aradia hooked up to machines if it was doing more harm than good. I still wou

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   279. Withdrawal Symptoms

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~I have tried to be as quiet as possible while still being supportive. I gave Haylee the space she needed to process her feelings and all the new information Gladys was throwing at her, but I also had to be there for her.I had to find a balance, and for a fully grown Alpha male like me, finding a balance between caring and staying back was difficult.But of course, not as difficult as wrapping one’s head around Gladys’s response to Haylee’s last question. In fact, Haylee jolted off the bed, eyes widely open as she gasped, “Are you kidding me? Gosh, you can’t be serious, Gladys.”My mate fought against Gladys's declaration. Yet, when she saw Gladys's unwavering expression, Haylee crumbled from within, begging as she began to sob, “Please tell me you were trying to be funny.”“I won’t joke around with such—” Gladys began, shaking her head.But Haylee cried out, cutting her statement short, “But she can’t experience withdrawal symptoms for a whole year! Why would yo

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   278. Dying Body

    HAYLEE~~“There you are!” Gladys exhaled with relief when I entered one of the private suites in the building. I wasn’t surprised my mom was getting special treatment, nor was I caught off guard when Gladys approached me and threw her arms around me.Liya, who had been quiet since the emotional moment with my dad, muttered, “It’s hugging day, I guess.”I smiled sadly as I hugged Gladys back, nodding as she told me how happy she was to have me back home. But she also grumbled, “I am so mad at the devil that did all this damage. I wish I didn’t have to give him an antidote and heal him after he was brought in last night.”Confused, I queried, “Why did you have to do that?”I pulled back from Gladys's comforting hug and looked at my mate, who had also been quiet. Before Gladys could answer, Xalen did with a small smile on his face, as if he didn’t want to provoke me, “She had to because he would have died if she didn’t. I couldn’t let him die that easily.”“Great.” I nodded, telling m

  • The Alpha King's Hated Mate   277. The Top Three

    HAYLEE~~“I swear to the goddess, he is more tense than we are,” Liya sighed into my mind as I walked into the familiar building full of Healers. “I don’t know if I should be worried or happy.”My wolf’s words were about Xalen, whose hand was on the small of my back as if he were trying to ward off any bad energy around me.“It’s kind of hilarious, but he is trying, Liya. He is really trying to make us happy, and this must be hard for him,” I said to my wolf, asking her not to make fun of the situation.The universe kind of sapped the joy from my life in that moment as I passed by a ward and perceived the strong scent of Alfred and Kaylee’s fading presence. In that instant, I knew they were behind the closed door I stood before.My feet froze as fast as my mind did, but I was also quick to snap out of my emotions as I walked closer to the door and pushed it open. Alfred looked up immediately, his blank face furrowing when he saw me.I parted my lips to speak, but couldn’t find any

    ALPHA KING XALEN~~Although this had to happen, it killed me as I sat down there and listened to Haylee as she narrated all that went down with Richard yesterday before I arrived. Of course, I was proud of her, but still, I wished she didn’t have to go through any of that.“And there goes all the light in her eyes,” Theo muttered within me after Haylee finished telling the heartbreaking tale.I wished I could carry her back to our bedroom and rock her to sleep or something… anything that would get her mind off all of these. However, I knew she had to face the rest of the world after this.So, I couldn’t protect her.“Thank you for sharing with us, Haylee,” my cousin muttered under his breath. He had to clear his throat to shake off the emotions that had seized his heart, and when he succeeded, he added, “Do you perhaps know how Evan and Richard are related?”Haylee shook her head, saying, “No, I don’t, but I heard him say that he was planted in Xalen’s life since he was a child. He

    HAYLEE~~“Storms are raging to your left, right, and center, but somehow, he knows how to make us smile in the midst of it all,” Liya cooed when we stepped into the new and bigger bathroom.Na Di couldn’t even differ because she was so damn right. An hour ago, I was fighting my own mind and hating my life while I slept, but now, I was humming a happy song in a fresh bathroom with a spacious shower and a massive tub that would be used for a lot more than bathing.Not that I forgot my worries, but I was able to live with them because of my mate. I was confident I could live through the day and the rough month that was sure to follow because of my mom’s condition and the prophecy, as long as Xalen was by my side.“Who wouldn’t be confident?” Liya said with a singsongy tone, pointing out the fact that Xalen had arranged my favorite bath product in the bathroom and gotten me a new towel.Everything was in place, just like I loved it, and that made it known that he didn’t let a servant a
