Layla’s POV

As we returned to the capital's castle, the warriors wait for us. Beta Steve and I enter the interrogation room to find several rogues lined up and ready for questioning. The men before us are ragged and dirty, looking exactly like the men who attacked us.

The guards standing behind them hold them in place so they can't get up or run.

“The rogues claimed to be unaffiliated junkies who were too high to know they were attacking the King,” says one of the guards.

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Mate   Chapter 13- Anger Rising

    Alexander’s POVThe earlier chaos becomes an unpleasant memory, giving way to a peaceful calm as guests begin pouring into the castle for the Full Moon Banquet. Our guests are none the wiser, moving around the banquet hall with ease, and I finally feel like I can breathe.Just hours ago, things were looking dangerously unkempt. The kitchen was a disaster, the banquet hall was in shambles, and the staff were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.Everything was wrong, and honestly, I thought the banquet wouldn’t start on time. However, with Layla’s help, everything was completely finished with enough time to give us a moment to breathe.I’m not surprised, though. She has always been able to fully organize almost anything within near perfect conditions when it was finished.But I also remind myself that getting this banquet together isn’t a complex job to begin with. The procedures were already set by the Deltas from years prior, so things just needed a slight nudge to f

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Mate   Chapter 12- I Win Again

    Layla’s POVAn illegitimate child?Even though they’re not talking about me or my child, my heart stutters for a moment. The woman looks up, tears falling from her eyes, and I recognize her. Her name is Jane. I remember meeting her when I found out she was the mistress of one of my former Delta subordinates.Months ago, we learned that she was pregnant, but my subordinate—the father—refused to take responsibility. He had found his mate long before and wanted nothing to do with Jane or the baby.Thinking it was unfair and unjust, I’d stripped him of Delta rank and demoted him to a common pack member. Not only that, but because he took a mistress, it proved he was disloyal to his mate. I couldn’t put my trust in someone who easily shifted their loyalty like he had.I still remember when Jane agreed to terminate the pregnancy in order to stay in the pack… but clearly, that hadn’t happened.One of the men goes to grab the baby again, but Jane holds the little bundle close, pleading with t

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Mate   Chapter 11- Mandatory Leave

    Layla’s POV“Excuse me?”“You’re purposefully sidelining Camila because you don’t like her,” Alexander states as if it is fact.“I’m doing nothing of the sort,” I growl back, offended and, honestly, perplexed by his sharp attitude. “I’ve assigned her to distribute forms, post schedules, and collect information from various departments.”“All tasks that can be done by Deltas in training,” he retorts.Does he hear himself?“Camila is a Delta in training,” I hiss. “I can’t give her tasks she’s not ready for. These tasks are standard opportunities for new Deltas to quickly understand Pack affairs. Before she can move forward, she needs to know how the Pack runs.”“Camila believes she is ready for more. Maybe you should reevaluate how you train new Deltas,” he says, narrowing his eyes as if inspecting my worth. I let him look.Pushing away from Alexander, I pull my arm from his grip and take a breath. “This is exactly how you trained me in the beginning. Are you saying I should ignore her

    Layla’s POVAs we returned to the capital's castle, the warriors wait for us. Beta Steve and I enter the interrogation room to find several rogues lined up and ready for questioning. The men before us are ragged and dirty, looking exactly like the men who attacked us.The guards standing behind them hold them in place so they can't get up or run.“The rogues claimed to be unaffiliated junkies who were too high to know they were attacking the King,” says one of the guards.I step forward and narrow my eyes on the rogues, “Why were you targeting Camila?”One after the other, each of their expressions shift from unbothered to a tight pinched expression of guilt. They try not to make it obvious, but I can tell by the way they tense up and glance at each other that I’m right.This must have been a premeditated hit.“What is your connection to Camila?” I demand, knowing that they’ll crack if I just apply more pressure. I just need to give them no other options.A low, quiet growl sounds beh

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Mate   Chapter 9- Fragile or Not

    Layla’s POVI force myself to push back the exhaustion as I stop and look up at the building before me. My arm aches still, having not healed just like the doctor said. Usually, this kind of wound would have been healed much quicker, and I wouldn’t have to worry about it, but now, I do.I’ll have to be more careful from now on, which could mean trouble. I won’t be able to rush into situations without more thought or concern.Sighing, I pull my hair back and tie it in a braid before making my way inside.“Delta Layla.”Beta Steve appears at my side, and I wonder if he knew I was looking for him. I nod in greeting and continue walking with him.“Are you ready to investigate yesterday’s rogue attack?” He asks, and I nod again.“They came out of nowhere, which isn’t always unusual, but I want to know how they knew where we were and how they got so deep into our territory without anyone noticing,” I hiss. There’s no reason the border patrol should’ve missed that many attackers. It’s suspic

  • The Alpha King’s Hidden Mate   Chapter 8- Smoke On the Wind

    Alexander’s POVWith the plate of food in hand, I slip out of Camila’s room while she eats what the nurse brought.The cold look on Layla’s face as she left is stuck on my mind, and I can’t stop thinking about it. She’s always been cold, yes, but this seemed different. It was harsher… sharper than usual.I’d never thought of Layla as a soft, loving woman, even in our early years. She’s always been cold and distant, and as I look down at the plate of uneaten pancakes in my hand, I remember watching her make them for the first time.She’d been learning to make the meal in the kitchen. The staff were there too, and as I watched from the doorway, I heard the whispers and was just as curious as the staff. Though, I didn’t want to interrupt Layla’s concentration.“Do you think she has a lover?”“Who could she be making a meal for?”“Ask her.”Honestly, I’d been about to ask, but one of the cooks took the task from me. She approached Layla, tapped her on the shoulder, and smiled as she asked
