The Aloha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Twenty-Seven.“Caliana. Benjamin is here,” Jasmine's voice echoed through the room. I was in the parlor getting ready for the announcement of Harry’s crowning. Tonight Harry was claiming me as his. Benjamin was warned not to show up.Charles has something up his sleeve; he doesn't want Harry to go through with this. I overheard their conversation. Harry warned Charles not to intervene with his coordination. “Where is he?” I ask Jasmine. She purses her lips. “Coming this way,”Said Jasmine.I stood from my chair where I was putting on my makeup and headed for the door. And I locked eyes with her. “Find Charles. Make sure he doesn’t find out that Benjamin is here,” I tell her and she nods her head.Leaving the room she goes one way and I go the other. Cautiously I make my way through the dim lit hallways of the mansion. This place is like a fortress. How in the world did Ben even get in without being seen? As I turned down yet another hall I sp
The Alpha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Twenty-Eight.“We can’t allow him here. What if he hurts Caliana?” Dominic’s voice booms through my fathers office.Anna was right. They were talking about Charles. “We can protect her,” That was Kyle. “We can’t stop him from coming to your crowning, all caputo has to attend. Including Charles,” My father tells them.I glance at Anna who’s also listening with me at the door. “Caliana has the amulet she can protect herself against him,” Mama said.“I agree. No one can touch her with that,”Katie chimes in.“What if the amulet distorts the kingdom again?” Dominic asks.“He’s right.” Kyle says. “What if she can’t control the powers,” he adds.“Let him come.” Annabella looked at me and her lips parted at Bane words. He’s been so quiet I didn’t know he was there.“This has nothing to do with you. Caliana chose me,” Dominic tells him.I shake my head. I didn’t chose him over Bane, I chose myself. I just decided for Dominic to mark me to end the c
The Alpha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Twenty-Nine.Bane followed at a distance as Charles and I walked around the grounds of the palace. I was going to try and talk to Charles and hope he would understand and let things go….in hopes it doesn’t turn violent between us.“It’s a little dark. Why don’t you make some floating lights above us?” Charles said.Charles has always been one for magic. He would have me do all sorts of things with the amulet….Charles never loved me like he thinks it’s the power he loves.“Agatha. Give me floating lights,” Laughter hover above and Charles smiles as he looks up at them.I glance over at Bane and he’s smiling but not at the lights.“Charles. I remember everything,” I say.He sighs.“So you know why I can’t let you live?” He said so calmly.“Charles. You don’t love me.” I shake my head.“Not like you think you do. It’s the power you love, it has always been the power,” I tell him.He shrugs.“Either way. Your a danger to my family and I can’t risk th
The Alpha Kings Cursed Mate.Chapter Thirty.I didn’t get much sleep last night after what happened between Bane and me. As hard as it is for me I’m going to let him go.He deserves to be happy. I walk down the hall and mumble a few words to Agatha and seconds later I hear Charles loud groans. I made my way to the kitchen where mama and Katie were preparing breakfast, Carol had to have knee surgery and will be out for awhile. But Mama doesn’t mind though, she loves cooking. “Caliana, are you hungry?” I nodded. I haven’t eaten much and I was starving. My baby also needed the nutrients from my meals to grow. Aunt Katie sat a plate of food in front of me and the smell caused me to vomit on the bar. I covered my mouth and ran into the bathroom.When I returned to the kitchen Charles was there waiting.“Join me for breakfast?” He asked.I nod.I really didn’t want to but I had no choice. I have to keep him happy until Dominic’s coronation tomorrow night.“I’ve thought of the best thi
The Alpha King's Cursed Mate.Chapter Thirty-One.I haven’t used Agatha’s powers like this in years. Even in my past lives I forbid myself from using her, afraid the magic would go to my head. Charles always wants me to use Agatha not that I mind though, I’m this life the magic she possesses doesn’t scare me because I know I won’t let go to my head. I have a baby on the way and I’m needed in ways I was never needed before.“How is your visit so far?” Papa asked Charles. We were eating lunch. Everyone has a busy day today with Dominic’s coronation tonight. “Fine. I’ve actually gotten the best sleep in years,” Charles replied.“I wonder why that is?” Weston smirks at me.“Well, this palace has always been gone, Weston. I was raised here,” Charles told his son.“Why are you looking at my mate like that?” Dominic asked Weston.Weston’s eyes locked on mine.“Do tell them Cali,” Weston says.“Tell us what?” Papa asked.I stayed silent.“What is he talking about Caliana?” Papa asked.I sig
The Alpha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Thirty-Two.“Caliana, can we talk?” Dominic said, closing my door.It was almost time for his coronation. He should be getting ready instead of trying to sweet talk me into not being mad at him.“I really don’t wanna talk right now,” I replied.I was finishing up my face. I only put on some mascara and lip gloss. I don't have the energy to do more. “Cali, I know you're upset. But you hurt me just as much as I hurt you,” Dominic said.I turned to face him.“How is that?” I asked.“You showed Bane how Agatha works but you won’t show me. I have one question for you Cali,” Dominic said, moving closer.“Do you want to be with Bane?” He added.Our eyes met and my stomach dropped. I do love Bane more than I ever care to admit. But I chose to be with Dominic because I love him more than anything. I have been in love with Dominic since I was nine years old. “I want to be with you. I want you there protecting me, but you're always putting Bane up to your
The Alpha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Thirty-Three.“Cali?” Dominic said, stroking a strand of hair from face. Dominic carried me back to my room and laid me on the bed. I am still crying, the pain in my chest still aching. How could Bane do this to me? Yes, we both agreed to be with our other mates but I was never going to let Dominic mark me not like he did Anna. I love Dominic with my heart. It wasn't an easy decision to make. I only chose Dom because of Anna, she loves Bane so much and this thing between us was hurting her.I just never thought the pain would be so much.“It’s almost time for me to go on stage so Xander can crown me king. You need to rest and I’ll check on you later,” He said, getting up from the bed. “I'm sorry, Dominic. I never expected the pain to be this bad,”Dominic frowns.“Pain from what?” He asked.“Bane marked Annabella breaking the bond between us,” I whispered.Dominic tensed but said nothing as he walked out of the door.I hurt him. I didn’t mean t
The Alpha King’s Cursed Mate.Chapter Thirty-Four.“Why?” Dominic whispered, as he placed me to my feet once I was able to stand on my own. “I could have ended this, why wouldn’t you let me?” He asks, his voice full of anger. I sighed. I couldn’t let Dominic fight Charles, I needed to know why Harry asked him to kill me. “I need to ask a few questions first. He’s the only one that can answer them,” I replied.Dominic hesitated before he finally nodded. Dominic grabs my hand and was about to lead me to the dance floor when papa took the stage. “The new King and his Luna and future Queen would like to have their first dance. Please make way for Dominic and Caliana,” Papa said, clapping his hands. Everyone was clapping and smiling as Dominic led me to the floor. He placed his hand on my lower back and took my left hand into his. The warmth of his palm on my back sent shivers down my spine. Dominic and I swirled and he spun me around as the song continued and we swayed to rhythm as
