MasukAlyssa is the daughter of an Alpha but she has been imprisoned in the Red Maple Camp, a prison for violent and destructive criminals, for the past five years on false charges. On her eighteenth birthday she is released by her father only to be rejected by her fated mate, the second prince of the kingdom, and engaged to a sadistic monster. After running away from her engagement she runs into Kai, the first prince of the kingdom and the two enter into a deal: If she pretends to be his fiance and heals him from poison invading his body, he won't spill a secret that could get her killed and her freedom. But with conspiracies and threats lurking around the corner, a fight for succession, and her mate fighting to get her back, Alyssa strives not only to clear her name but to survive in this vipers den.
Lihat lebih banyakAlyssa’s POVIt was almost hard to believe that we were all there together with the key to fixing everything. We were also the new generation of Alpha bloodlines, coming together in a show of unity for the first time in a while. Nolan had created the antidote. Or, at least he’d hoped that he had, considering how quickly he’d studied and tested.“I can’t make any promises, Alyssa. I’m really sorry, but there just wasn’t enough time.”“I understand, Nolan,” I had said as I took his hands in mine, “I can’t tell you how much it means to me that you tried.”Nolan nodded with a small smile and brought me into a quick hug with a reassuring squeeze.Caleb held onto Kai’s hand tightly, still trusting us, but nervous about what was happening. His eyes drifted to our father’s body, and he shuffled himself a little further behind Kai. Kai was sweet with him, giving my younger brother a gentle pat on the head. Alexander stood stiff, prepared for whatever I was going to ask of him.“The ice is fi
Kai’s POV It wasn’t hard to get Caleb. Honestly, I was thinking it would be a lot more difficult, but after counting the warriors and their guard changes, it was a simple effort to sneak past them and climb the wall with the lattice fence to the bedroom that Alyssa had pointed out earlier that day. The light was dim, and I had Carter waiting in the distance in case I needed him. The window wasn’t locked, and for a moment I wondered if there would be some kind of ambush waiting for me. Was Vivian actually this certain that Alyssa had given up hope? Alyssa had put on a believable performance; it almost had me concerned, so perhaps Vivan was getting sloppy with her supposed victory.I easily climbed into his room, trying to make sure I was staying as quiet as possible with the footsteps pacing outside the door.Sneaking to the bed, I crouched down by where Caleb was facing in his sleep and gave him a gentle nudge on his shoulder.The boy groaned, and it took him a few seconds to flick
Alyssa’s POV We found Alexander not long after we had sent Nolan off to try to find an antidote for my father and filled him in on what we had found. He offered his blood immediately, which I appreciated, but firstly, we had to get Caleb… and there was no way Vivian was letting him out of her sight, not whilst he was Alpha now.“So what do we do?” Alexander asked, “It’s unlikely we’ll be able to get him alone.”“During the day,” I agreed, “But at night, when he’s supposed to be in bed, he probably won’t have more than a guard on the door. They wouldn’t think any harm would come to him at night.”“We could control the guard’s spirit, make him fall asleep and grab Caleb,” Kai offered.“No!” I remembered the blinding pain when Alexander used his power on me all those moons ago, the pain that brought Carys to her knees. I didn’t want another person to go through that if we absolutely didn’t have to. But also, if Kai couldn’t get him down and knock him out in a second or two, the guard w
Alexander's POVI didn’t know how much longer the others needed to find what they were looking for. I also didn’t know how much longer Vivian and Freya would stay distracted. Sooner or later, they were going to realise no Royal Procession was coming their way to mourn the dead Alpha; we were lucky we’d already gotten away with this much. As I debated going inside to make a new plan with the others, Alpha Nolan appeared, clutching something in his hand. “Alpha Nolan!” I waved him towards me, a plan already in my mind.“Yes, Your Highness?”“How are things progressing?” I asked, needing to know how much information we had before doing anything else.Alpha Nolan looked around briefly before leaning closer, “We may have all the information we need; we just need more time.”I nodded in acknowledgement. I had been thinking the same thing, “We may need to find a way to get my father and mother here for real. It’s already been hours, and I don’t know how much longer they will fall for the id
Alyssa's POVI faced a smack to the face from the Luna Queen’s head maid. The blow took me by surprise. Even though I was currently a maid for the Luna Queen, I was still an Alpha’s daughter so I hadn’t expected physical abuse from the others.I held my hand to my cheek, looking at Moira, the head
Kai's POVThankfully, by the time I returned to my camp none of my men had noticed me missing and no one else had disappeared under Leon’s watch. It seemed I was correct in thinking that it was a diversion. The assassins hadn’t been able to find Alyssa and I hoped that she would be safe at home.We
Alexander's POV I didn’t know what game my mother was playing but unfortunately, I had no choice but to go along with it if I wanted to ensure that Alyssa stayed safe. Regardless of whether my engagement with Freya was back on, she wouldn’t forgive Alyssa for supposedly coming between us.I was pa
Alyssa's POVAlexander was so convincing in his pleas that I almost believed it. If I hadn’t known any better I would’ve thought this display to be genuine and that he'd done this in front of me again just to spite me.I glanced up slightly, having looked away when Freya had launched herself at my
