The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 45: Family
Xavier, who saw Mia’s desire for reading, had converted his mother’s spell room into a study for her. In the last few months, Mia had successfully read all the books on the shelf in her room. When she relayed it to Xavier, he seemed obliged to find a way out for her sake. He borrowed her a few of his books from his study and in the little free time she had to herself, Mia finished them and returned them two days later, and that blew him away. He knew she loved books, but he didn’t know she loved them that much. This prompted the creation of the study, and after three days, it was almost completed. Mia stood at the window of her study, which had a thick brown curtain to control the flow of light in the room. She watched as the workers placed the last book on the shelf and she looked impressed with the progress and speed of its transformation. The study desk was being adjusted when the door flew open, startling the eight people in the room. All eyes
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 46: Between the lines
As soon as Xavier departed from Mia’s study, he returned to his chambers and picked out a long black hood before leaving the Palace. It was barely dark outside, and this wasn’t his usual routine when he visited Zara, but he needed to see her. He made the decision and every nerve in his body agreed to it. The last time he visited Zara, they shared so many intimate moments, yet something felt missing. He couldn’t wrap his hands around what it was, and when he got ready to leave, the kiss of her lips didn’t make him want to stay. Something had been happening to him, something insane, and it was the disappearance of the feelings he once had for his lover. A few months ago, the echoes of her name would send him wild and the thought of Zara’s fairness and body would send chills through him, but that was no longer the case. He didn’t know if she felt the change as well, but if she did, she said nothing about it. At first, he didn’t think it had anything to do with his wife, but today made
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 47: Sins of the father
Flashback The door of Xavier’s room flew open and the loud bang of it caused his head to slam heavily. He tried peeling his lashes apart, but the much light in the room made him shut them back. “You good for nothing idiot!” Robb roared as he stormed into his room. Xavier did not know what he did to deserve this name-calling. Could it be him getting drunk in the tavern until this morning, or being brought in by the guards? Or was it from taking a bag of gold from the treasure room? Or from spending over 600 talent on drinks for himself and his friends? Whichever it was, he had pissed his father off big time. “Father!” “Somehow you’ve dragged the Ainsworth’s name through the mud with your careless acts! I am ashamed to call you my son.” “Then don’t call me your son, call me, Xavier!” he slurred, staggering out of the bed and falling face-first on the floor. He groaned in pain and forced himself up to his feet, before leaning against the bed stand. There were two phases to him: bei
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 48: Pains of the past
Xavier remembered being chained up in the temple at sixteen because he had spoken out of tone with his father. He stayed there chained and without food or water for many days and this triggered his premier shift. The guards heard the noises, but none came to his aid, not until his wolf emerged. A big, black, scary wolf with fur and glowing yellow eyes growled aloud in pain and anger. The chains fell off him, and the door opened soon after. In came the High priest and three guards with silver spears in their hands, ready to attack. Xavier surged forward and killed them all before running out into the woods, and when he shifted back into his human form, his actions dawned on him. He knew his father would have him disgraced and punished and Xavier made plans to run away. When Robb found out what had happened, he ordered a search for him, declaring he wanted throughout the entire kingdom for his atrocities. Just as expected, when he was found, he was thrown into th
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 49: Fighting fate
In her sleep, Mia heard a growl, and this pulled her into consciousness to find a pair of red blazing eyes hovering over her in bed. Her eyes widened further to see she didn’t hallucinate what she saw. There was a big black wolf on her bed, staring down at her. She dragged a sharp breath, scared. She pushed herself onto her elbows, so her face was inches away from the wolf’s, but made no other move. Werewolves were faster in wolf form than in their human forms, and the functions of her legs were still yet to kick in from just waking up. So though she wanted to run up and off the bed, she knew she won’t make it far. She calmed herself, banishing the lingering fear away, and carefully stared at him. The wolf had glowing red eyes and was in her room, which meant he was an alpha and lived in the palace. Her eyes narrowed when her sense of smell finally activated and took in the smell of him. The distinct smell of the wolf was that of the alph
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 50: Hope in fear
A few Lords arrived at the Asika household and so Mia declined her father’s offer to walk her to her carriage. He had a meeting to get to and she could see herself out in one piece. They shared a brief kiss, and he beseeched her to take care of herself. The evening drew near when Mia took her leave. The palace was a little over an hour's ride from here, so she was certain she would get home before dark. The last thing she wanted was to encounter trouble on the road. King Xavier Ainsworth will have a legit reason to have her killed. Mia stepped towards her carriage and almost stepped in when she noticed a pair of glowing yellow eyes at the corner of the compound hanging on the wall of the ceiling. She did not fear. This was her father’s house, which made it hers as well. But she knew better than to let her wolf's side take over so she could find out who was lurking around. Setting her wolf free would tell whoever was lurking around that Mia Asika w
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 51: Good little wife
A knock came to Xavier’s door, and he cringed and buried his head further into the pillow. He had dismissed the guards and told them to not bother him, not even if the palace was on fire. Whoever was at the door either had a death wish or had a death wish. He would be inclined to give it to them if they didn’t leave. He almost fell back to the state of sleep when another knock came on the door. The last two guards that were in his room felt his fury. However, what he did then would not compare to what he would do to the intruder at the door. His hand fisted in a second and his eyes fluttered, already angry, and it made his head hurt. Before he could take himself off the bed, the door opened and someone entered. Usually, he’d know the intruder by their scent, but the much wine he had drunk before falling into bed last night still affected his sense of smell. He didn’t care, he would do justice to the intruder either way. He got off the bed and tu
The Alpha King's Ugly Bride 52: Fear in rebellion
He wanted to. He wanted to end her life like he yearned to do so many times in the past, rid himself of her, and be happy. Her death won’t solve his problems, but it would take half away. Yet, he couldn’t kill her. Her blood was the last thing he wanted on his hands. He let her go and turned from her, while she choked and tried to recover from the pain he had inflicted on her neck. Driven by his fury, he stormed over to his bed and flipped it off the floor. It flew and crashed into the wall. He howled out in pain and anger and dropped to his knees. His heartbeat raced and his exposed skin grew hairier and his fingers contorted into a claw. These changes told him he was shifting. Alpha kings usually shifted at will and could control every of his shift, but Xavier found he couldn’t control what was happening to him. His wolf was fighting to take over, and this had never happened before.It terrified him. His emotions that had come into play in the last few minutes were severe a
