The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 13: The watcher
Mia’s eyes cracked open, and it took a while for her senses to return and when they did, she realised she was in a small room having little lights. There was no memory of how she came here or what led up to this moment. It was all blurry.She placed her head, which ached slightly, and traced it down her neck and she found it bare. It felt wrong. There had been something around her neck before, something like a collar. Yes, a collar. It was called giga. At the thought, the memory came back. The collar injecting the wolfsbane through the silver needles into her system had contributed to her weakened state before everything faded out. But now it was already off her. There was no need to prolong the issue. She knew she was dead, and that was the only explanation that made sense.This, however, wasn’t the life beyond which she pictured for herself. This was something different. Was she in Inferno? Did she deserve to be in Inferno? Was it because she gave up and felt too weak? Was it becau
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 14: The bond of mates
“You know I’m all for adventure, but staying at a cottage in the woods is stretching it, don’t you think?” Xavier asked with a raised brow as he pushed the cottage door open to reveal an empty outer room.They had arrived at Kame, the Southern region of the kingdom, on duties to the throne and hoped to stay a few days. Mia thought it was a great idea to spend these days at her family-owned cottage. He hadn’t been one to complain about suggestions given by his wife and he didn’t plan to start now and so he gave in. They arrived a few hours ago and Mia asked him to chop some of the dry wood around because she knew how chilly the night usually got down here. Again, he obliged. He just finished with the woods and now he felt worn and sweaty and needed some relief. “Mia!” he called, shutting the door and his eyes narrowed, wondering what his little devil of a wife was up to. “Your disappearance has mischievousness written all over it, Mia. What are you planning?”He heard footsteps and, t
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 15: Elliott
“Father.” Elliott bowed his head as he stepped into the study of the royal estate where Robb sat reviewing the scroll report of the happening around the kingdom.While the princess and Alpha Koz, the right-hand man of the King ran the decision-making, they ran their affairs by Robb Ainsworth for review and approval. Alpha Koz and princess Kailani made the draft at the end of every week and sent them over to him. Once he reviewed it, he would send his feedback to them. They had done this since King Xavier and Edward left to ensure the smooth running of the kingdom.Their decisions were sound, and Robb knew Xavier had made a good choice by making them active rulers.If he was honest, he would admit he didn’t think this would work. When it all started, Robb didn’t think princess Kailani, who hadn’t had training in the affairs of the kingdom, could rule and manage effectively for even a day. He was happy to have been proven wrong by her competence and he looked forward to seeing more from
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 16: Rewrite the stars
Edward’s eyes snapped open suddenly while in bed, and he dragged in a sharp breath. Xavier turned to look at him. Edward came into his cabin to talk him into getting sleep and after four hours, he talked himself to sleep instead while Xavier sat and watch.Yes, Xavier needed the sleep, but he couldn’t bring himself to. After almost losing Mia last week, his sleep has left him completely. His heart went to her, thinking about how she was faring, and he didn’t want to slumber even for a moment. He had asked Edward to check up on her a few days ago and the results were much more positive than before. That was what he needed to hear. Still, he wanted to remain awake. Edward took notice of this and came to help him sleep. After his younger brother fell asleep, Xavier helped cover him up while he moved to the window to stare through. He felt the hair on his hair suddenly stand a minute ago and his heart picked up speed even though he wasn’t running. He had initially feared it had something
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 17: A broken wolf
Mia was barely awake when she saw Xavier towering above her. Her lashes were further pulled apart, and she saw the lingering smile on his face. It chilled her from the inside out. "Xavier!" she called, trying out a smile that caused a breakage on her dry lips as well as the skin of her face. "You came for me!""I did. Now come," he stretched his hand to her. She lifted her weak trembling hand slowly to take him but lost the strength halfway through. Her hand fell back, but he caught it midway and pulled her up and wrap his arms around her for a comforting hug. She sobbed while placing her head on his chest."I thought you would never come." She whimpered pathetically, gripping his shirt, afraid that she would lose him if he let go."I had to come back. I already lost our child. I couldn't lose you too." he replied. His reply caused a jolt in her heart. She hadn't lost her child; she was certain of that, at the very least. She pulled away from him, glancing up at him and seeing a mi
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 18: The ladybird
After dressing up, Mia stepped out of the bathroom in the green robe Ace had given to her before taking his leave.She saw Trevor and Bruno seated on the bed, but Ace was yet to return from wherever he went. Somehow, she felt safer around him and spoke freely with him than the two. He showed a more human side towards her and didn’t treat her like a commodity, as the two did.“Finally, you’re out,” Trevor, the grey-eyed man with a hoarse voice and a dirty brown coat rose to his feet and stepped towards her, “I was this close to coming in there and dragging you out.” he hissed out and stepped towards her. “Let’s go!”She was hazier before she took her bath, but she swore she heard Ace speak about bringing her food before leaving. But Trevor did not look like he wanted to wait for Ace’s arrival before leaving.Bruno’s eyes flicker with confusion. “What about Ace?”“Ace will ruin our mission if we wait for him, besides he’s no one’s boss.” he reached where she stood and grasped her arm. H
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 19: Zara's revenge
Zara’s smirk deepened when she saw Mia had placed her face and recognised who she was.“Zara!” she called out. She knew she should be angry. If Zara was the ladybird, and the boss of the movers, that meant she had instructed to kidnap her from Wahala and place her in the cabin of the slave ship where her spirit would be broken. It meant she was responsible for everything and more. She had planned this out. She had turned her into a slave and dragged her to the point of death.For what? Revenge? If yes, then shouldn’t she have taken it out on Xavier instead?Why was she the one facing this?What was the point? “Good, you remember me. I know you’re wondering what you’re doing here. I will tell you. You’re here as my gift to the king of Foth.” she informed her in a casual tone, as if she was some doll.“Why?”“Why?”Summoning strength amidst her weakness, Mia rose to her feet. “Yes, why. This looks like some petty revenge because you were caught cheating and banished from Wahala. Whic
The Alpha King's Runaway Bride Chapter 20: Chaos leads
Alpha Koz had waited for a response from Robb Ainsworth, who had received their report two days ago but got nothing. It was unusual for the alpha of alphas to go a day without sending reports of his thoughts back to the palace, either in person or through a messenger. So far, they have gotten only silence. The Royal estate wasn’t one just anyone could visit. They had to be invited as the alpha of alphas commanded respect and reverence and no one could go uninvited, but after days of waiting and hearing nothing, Alpha Koz spoke to princess Kailani of his plans to visit the Royal estate where Robb stayed and she gave her backings. He then made plans to go out at the dawn on the morrow. Alpha Koz, along with Sir Aira, the Princess’s personal escort, appointed by prince Edward before his departure, along with three of the King’s guards, saw princess Kailani back to the watchtower’s castle, where she preferred to stay. Then he retired home to his wife, lady Elena. “You look worried,” El
