Lucien's POV

"He asked me to invite them... their council, at least, along with the shifter and Wendy. To see," I started, unsure of how to proceed.

Vivian leaned forward, ignoring the impatient glances of the guards eager to escape the presence of my father. "See what?"

The time stretched, and I could feel her growing disappointment when I didn't speak. Another secret, apparently, one that wasn't necessary.

"He wants me to behead Alex and serve his head at his banquet," I finally blurted out,

  • The Alpha's Plus-Sized Mate   Chapter 154

    Vivian's POVMy chest heaved, and Lucien's hand had found mine, grasping it tight.Jarla still gave us that worried look that told me she was just as worried about her own people."You can... you can begin the evacuation now. Move east. We already had some of our warriors set up a camp a bit further within our territorial lines. You might come across scouts every now and then, but they're good people and won't harm you."She nodded at Lucien's words and walked away, with Robb already selecting those who would be in the carriage, while the two nurses went along with Robb to check on their wounded."How could we make such a mistake?" I groaned, palming my head with my free hand.Lucien shifted next to me, and a second later, his hand was around my wrist, pulling it off so he could stare down at me. "It'll be alright.""How exactly? How can anything be alright now? We have to get back home fast." I glanced up.There was probably enough moonlight for me to manage a shift."My father will

  • The Alpha's Plus-Sized Mate   Chapter 153

    Lucien's POVI felt Vivian's stare shifting between us. She wiggled out of my grip and pulled me along until we were out of the packhouse and away from the scrutinising gaze of my father.Her presence probably had to be the only thing that made enduring that of the shifter worth it.Outside, I let out a breath I hadn't known I'd been holding. "We need to hurry now. The longer they stay where they are, the more unsafe it is."The shifter came out after us. "Tell me he didn't mean what he said.""He meant it," I replied calmly, ignoring her wide, panicked expression. "We need to go now, but taking the carriage will be too slow. Night will fall before we get there.""Can't you just shift? Your wolf is large, I know that. You'll be there in less than an hour if you run!" She screamed, her voice high and laced with heavy desperation.My lips parted, already prepared to explain again how Vivian couldn't shift at night.Vivian, who already seemed to know what I intended to say, grabbed the h

  • The Alpha's Plus-Sized Mate   Chapter 152

    Vivian's POV We all turned toward Eric, who stumbled into the packhouse, Sansa stepping in with a smug expression right behind him. I walked toward her, my eyes narrowed. "What the hell did you do?" "Is it true?" Eric asked no one in particular. "Where's Alex?" Lucien came forward and grabbed his friend. "Alex is fine. He's just not here." "If I find out you sent him to the gallows or the chopping block, I swear to God, Lucien..." "He is in neither of those places. For now, we've talked my father out of the execution by making a deal. Someone will still die, but I promise it won't be Alex. And it's someone who deserves it." "He threatened my mate, Lucien... I'll kill him!" Sansa was still smirking, and she didn't need to answer my question for me to know. That threat Eric just made was enough for any alpha to have him imprisoned. If he actually tried, the guards here would never let him get close, but attempted murder of the alpha would receive the same punishment. If anythin

  • The Alpha's Plus-Sized Mate   Chapter 151

    Vivian's POV I got to my feet, eyes wide and fixed on the terrified girl struggling for what she knew had to be her life. Her eyes trailed across the whole room before settling on Lucien and me, wide and pleading. "What is the meaning of this?" I demanded, my voice too shaky to have made the heavy, deep sound I'd heard. I realised a second later that Lucien and I had asked the question together, his voice much louder than mine but not nearly as outraged. The alpha leaned back into his chair, his eyebrow cocked. "Someone's blood must spill for mine. If the one responsible will not lay down his life, then his sister will make the sacrifice for him. Lucien, bring me the girl's head." I turned to him, eyes still wide, wondering how exactly he planned to get out of the situation. Wendy wasn't going to die. I didn't care who had to do what. Lucien finally strode toward the table, pulling out the familiar dagger he always carried with him and burying the tip into the stone table. The

  • The Alpha's Plus-Sized Mate   Chapter 150

    Vivian's POVI could tell Lucien was thinking exactly what I was.Alex being in the forest added more to our already complicated mix."Wendy, I need you to go out of sight for now, until we can find your brother and bring him home. Stay in your room and keep the door shut, okay?"She hiccuped, nodding her head.I forced my fingers to loosen around her shoulders so she could turn to leave.Watching her receding back only made me feel even more determined to save Alex and make things right."We can't let him get into the forest at all," I said, my mind racing for a way to make that possible."He'll be done with his meeting soon," Lucien mumbled.Even without having done anything, he still moved with a layer of guilt wrapped around him.I reached for his hand, wrapping mine around it and interlocking our fingers.He glanced down at our intertwined hands, then at me.I gave him a reassuring smile. The calm, breathtaking moment gave me an idea that had me clutching his hand tight."Oh! Oh!

The barbarian who would serve a boy's head in a banquet his own sister would attend."But why... why would he do that?" she whispered, her voice shaky like she couldn't fathom anyone possessing that kind of cruelty.But this had always been my father. "To remind everyone that he's sti
