(Alicent POV)

I could barely contain my anger anymore.

Every time I heard that Thomas had been in Ciara’s room, something inside me twisted violently. I had to stop this and I couldn’t let their mate bond become stronger.

Thomas was mine!

I clenched my fingers around the fabric of my gown as I walked toward the Queen's chambers.

I hate Ciara.

I hate those miserable eyes of hers that always seemed to make Thomas hesitate.

Most of all, I hate the fact that Thomas still cared whether she was hurt

  • The Pack's Criminal is the Alpha King's Mate   Chapter 25 Truth

    (Ciara POV)Luther went still.For the briefest second, the confidence vanished from his face. His fingers twitched and jaw tightened upon knowing that Vance knew something.I almost couldn't believe that Alpha Luther was afraid.Vance's smile deepened. “And I'm very interested in solving mysteries.”Luther swallowed. Across the room, Alicent caught her brother's gaze. Her face had also gone pale, she shook her head almost imperceptibly.The plea was written all over her eyes.Luther looked at her, then at me and everything inside me turned cold. It was a warning and a threat to confess in public. My nanny was still in his clutches and he knew how dear that old woman was to me.My stomach twisted.Luther knew exactly what he was doing.He didn't need to say her name, he only needed to look at me. And I understood that if I spoke she would suffer.My courage crumbled before it could even form.Vance turned toward me. “Ciara?”I couldn't breathe.His eyes were searching mine, I looked

  • The Pack's Criminal is the Alpha King's Mate   Chapter 24 The dead Princess’s fiancée

    (Ciara POV)“Come to the ball.” Alicent ordered.I slowly lifted my eyes. “I have work to do.”“You have one job tonight.” Her gaze dropped deliberately toward my neck. “Make yourself useful at the ball. The Queen wants you there, in front of her eyes.”I clenched my jaw.When I stood, pain shot through my legs. I bit down on my lip, I wouldn't let her see me wince. I wouldn't give Alicent the satisfaction of seeing me breaking down.I walked out of Thomas's room with my head lowered and my dignity clutched together by nothing but sheer stubbornness.By the time I reached the great hall, my leg was throbbing. Music filled the palace, hundreds of candles illuminated the room, reflecting off crystal chandeliers and polished silver.The banquet was magnificent.Of course it was.Tonight wasn't just another royal gathering.It was a celebration.For Luna Alicent and Alpha Thomas.My stomach twisted realising their names were engraved together everywhere. Their future was being celebrate

  • The Pack's Criminal is the Alpha King's Mate   Chapter 23 Heat

    (Thomas POV)I knew something was with Ciara when she barged into my room unannounced. I watched her stumbling towards me in the dress I brought her, but she was not wearing it properly, it barely hung over her shoulders fully.“What are you doing here, Ciara?” I shot up from my chair and asked her while walking towards her. “Did you….?” Before I could speak properly and finish my words, Ciara lunged at me. She held me by my shoulders and reached for my lips. “Don’t you….you want me?” She said in a raspy tone which made me wonder whether she was in her senses or not.“Are you drunk?” I shouted at her but it seemed my words didn’t reach her ears. Ciara grabbed my robe again and slipped it off my shoulders.“Don’t you want me, My Prince?” Her body limped in my arms as she wrapped her arms around my shoulders. Ciara leaned in to kiss my ears which flared up the mate bond between us even stronger. My wolf also snapped in my head yelling.MATE! I couldn’t take it anymore either.Picki

    (Ciara POV)The sound echoed through the chamber and my head snapped sideways. For a second, I couldn't breathe. My cheek burned with the sting of her slap, I slowly turned back toward her.Alicent's chest was rising and falling rapidly. “How dare you seduce my husband?”I stared at her, then I laughed.I couldn't help it.The sound was bitter and broken.“Seduce him?” I stood. My legs were still shaking, but I refused to let her see it. “Isn't that what you wanted, Alicent?”Her face twitched with anger and helplessness because there was nothing she could do about our mate bond and it boiled her blood.

  • The Pack's Criminal is the Alpha King's Mate   Chapter 21 This is not a relationship

    (Ciara POV)I don’t know for how long we stare at each other.Thomas closed his eyes for a moment before recovering, closing our distance.And the moment my palm lifted toward his face to reflexively slap him, Thomas’s hand shot up and caught my wrist.I froze, and his body was pressed against mine again.His lips had barely left mine while Thomas explored, but the warmth of the kiss felt like a wound burning across my mouth. I wanted to experience it, maybe even wished to be laid by him.I feel his hand on my shoulder sliding down on my butt.I feel the frantic pull of our mate bond, that invisible force that seemed determ

  • The Pack's Criminal is the Alpha King's Mate   Chapter 20 Impulsive Kiss

    (Ciara POV)For one terrifying second, I couldn't understand why Thomas was standing in front of me. He had appeared so suddenly that my mind couldn't catch up with what my eyes were seeing. One moment, I had been holding the small vial between my fingers, and the next, Thomas had crossed the room like a storm, knocking it from my hand.The vial of healing potion Vance gave me shattered, and the familiar liquid spilled across the wooden boards.I stared at it.Then at him.I taunt him coldly, because even now, after everything I had endured, he could still look at me and believe I wanted to die because of him.But Thomas was breathing heavily and not saying anything back.His chest rose and fell, his golden eyes were wide, almost wild. And for the first time in a long time, I saw something in them that didn't look like hatred.His hands came to my face."Ciara…"I froze.His palms were warm against my cheeks. For a heartbeat, I forgot how much I hated those hands. Forgot how many ti
