“So, how do you both know the Alpha King?” I asked as we finished up eating. I’d noticed how they referred to him by his first name, and Thaddeus himself had claimed they were old friends.

The two exchanged a glance, as if recalling fonder years of their youth, and a mischievous smile twitched across their lips.

“Well... it was when we were all much younger. As children, really,” Hazel started. “Thaddeus would sneak out of the palace and play with us in the street, getting up to all sorts of n

  • The Alpha's Villainess   Chapter Thirty-Four

    “Look, I already told Victor this,” I started defensively, “but, per your father’s instructions, I’m literally just waiting for the guard to show up who is meant to be escorting me out. If you have a problem with that, you can go look for the guard yourself and ask him why he’s making me wait so long.”“Are your legs broken? Why can’t you check for yourself?” he asked coldly.Just once – literally ONE TIME – it would be nice if he could speak to me like I was a human being. After everything his father had told me today, I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt so badly. But, as always, he was making it impossible for me to not react emotionally when he kept tearing me apart so quickly.My face flushed hot and I impulsively responded. “No, thankfully, you only allowed Liam to break several of my ribs before I was finally rescued by your father. My legs are still in perfect condition. Thank you very much for checking though, Your Highness”His golden eyes narrowed, clearly annoyed,

    Thaddeus and I chatted for a little longer, and I provided more details regarding what happened with Easthaven. I told him about Alistair coming to the tavern, how he’d lied about who’d sent him there, but ultimately, I made it clear that I went with him of my own volition. I mentioned about the man in the market, how I was worried for my safety, and believed wholeheartedly that, if I didn’t go with him, Liam would have found another means of kidnapping me, including my concerns regarding Rubeus and Hazel’s safety.He listened to me and promised to tighten the guard presence in the west side of town, as well as a few other measures he could take to help ease my worries. When it was over, his salesman speech well and truly done its job in trying to reassure me, I took a deep breath.I’d been carrying these concerns on my shoulders for a long time, feeling like I needed to be the one to change the future because I was the only one with knowledge to do so. In reality though, I couldn’t ac

    “How much do you already know about Lucia?” Thaddeus started.I thought about it for a moment, but truthfully I didn’t know much at all. “Nothing except that she passed away. They never spoke about her whilst I stayed with them.”He nodded his head in understanding. “I should probably start at the beginning. You should know that, despite Hazel and Rubeus being unwilling to accept any titles or wealth I offered, the three of us remained close even after the children were born. Lucia would often play with my two boys at the palace and grew up enjoying many of the privileges her parents had denied for themselves. It didn’t take long before the three of them became very close. So much so that, once Lucia entered her teen years, she went on to eventually develop a deeper relationship with Alistair.”“...They dated?” I asked curiously.“Yes... for a few years, at least. I believe it started around when Lucia was seventeen. She’d always been a very sweet girl growing up, but as her age of mat

    My body went completely limp in the arms of the guard who carried me. The pain and exhaustion had become too much, having sustained injuries that would have easily killed me by now had I still been in my original body. Liam hadn’t held back his strength in the slightest as he’d attacked me.Even the tiny voice inside that had been screaming at me to not give up, to find a way to escape and survive, was slowly fading now, accepting that I couldn’t move anymore, let alone run.It really was game over. It seemed I’d somehow made the wrong choices.Maybe if I’d just stayed with Liam from the start, none of this would have happened. I could have lived out the remainder of my time in luxury, experiencing a slice of what life could have been like had I been reborn into a body more fortunate. Perhaps I could have even found a way to no longer find Liam completely abhorrent. At one point, fate had given me a chance to stay behind in Easthaven. I could have tried to fix him, to change his fate t

    I was frozen in place, unable to move as the matebond controlled me. I’d only just started learning how to ignore the thoughts and feelings his presence invoked, but as we made physical contact for the first time, I realised just how little progress I’d actually made.The rush of senses was overwhelming, gravitating me towards him as if I were possessed. Though there was a small voice at the back of my head, screaming at me to stop, I kept moving in anyway. Unable to resist the yearning for his warmth. I wanted to lose myself in his touch... to weave my fingers through his dark hair and pull him closer... to feel his body against mine......But right as things were about to cross a line we couldn’t return from, his lips close to meeting my own... he managed to break free.He moved as though my skin had electrocuted him, instantly dropping my wrist and stepping away. The sheer expression of disgust on his face was enough to snap me out of my own trance.The spell was broken.Now free,

    I glared at Alistair’s back as he walked ahead of me, leading us through the Capital.The trip was deathly silent with not a single word spoken between us. Even as we came upon the main gate, the guards started to approach us, but all it took was one look from Alistair and they quickly backed away, allowing for us to pass through without issue.“We’ll shift here and travel via the forest,” Alistair finally announced, coming to a stop not too far outside the gate. “We should make it there by nightfall if we keep good time.”...Oh.Shifting... as in that thing I hadn’t managed to master yet. When I’d done it to save Alistair, it was something I was barely even conscious for. Just an automatic response that occurred as a result of the matebond. Despite continuing to try shifting forms the last few weeks, I still hadn’t found the key to doing it on command.“...I... I can’t,” I admitted, embarrassed. “I don’t know how.”He looked at me as though I was purposely trying to be difficult and d

    “Alistair will come around, you’ll see,” Thaddeus continued. “There is no need to worry. Since you said you’ve left Easthaven, I’ll have someone prepare a room for you here. It will be good for him to get to know you better.”That feeling of fear quickly crept back in at hearing his suggestion that

    “I, Alistair Reynes, eldest son of the Alpha King, heir of the Aeredale Empire...—”“—STOP THIS AT ONCE.”Everyone immediately looked up towards the sound of the commanding voice, belonging to the only man capable of challenging Alistair.“I forbid you from rejecting the matebond with Scarlett,” th

    I was prepared this time for the onslaught of crazy sensory signals Alistair’s presence would give me. Instead of being hopeful or curious about the man who made me feel this way, I only felt dread inside. A deep, unknown fear of the pain I knew I would feel soon. The same that I’d seen Liam and Aur

    “No... No....”Aurora spun on her heels and left quickly, not even wasting a second to clarify what she’d heard. As if she were removing herself from the scene before she did something that she’d regret doing in front of the Alpha King.“Aurora!” I yelled, taking a step towards her before rememberi
