Lahat ng Kabanata ng THE ALPHA KING'S CLAIM: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

< Serena >Trying to understand Rhea’s words, I recollected everything I experienced so far and yeah, somehow, not all were bad."True, this place is different than ours," I started when I faced her. "It is attractive..."'Not to mention the king,' my mind pitched in. I inwardly groaned. Of all the things to highlight, why him?Then I remembered one basic fact Rhea might not have known."If...if you want to stay, I think you can, but a word of advise, know first what kind of people you are dealing with,” I stated vaguely. If I tell her head-on that this kingdom’s people including their rulers were werewolves, she’d probably think me crazy.A small curve on her lip appeared and then I saw an undeniable recognition in her eyes."I know what you're trying to say, Serena. I know already what they are. They are werewolves.”My

< Aero >I tried to hide it, but my displeasure was evident on my face as soon as the vampire entourage entered the ballroom. I clenched my fists and growled out low. I wished for an interesting night tonight, but I didn't mean this at all.The announcement of their presence was too late, but it was enough to catch the attention of the guests. They parted in half to allow the odd group passage and all waited with curious eyes as they neared my throne.From the periphery of my vision, I saw my queen gasp; her mouth slightly open and her hand splayed over her chest. Somehow she didn't look at me. No. Nothing. Not a single glance and yes, somehow this made me feel a little—no, a lot—disappointed. I couldn't read what was in her mind. I couldn't read what she was feeling. Was she happy of this vampire's presence? Was she afraid? Or irritated even. Was she...excited?Urghh...

“So what if I’m human?” I grounded, putting as much courage on my voice despite how scared I was at the moment. “I’m married to the alpha king. I’m his wife.”“Only for a moment I should say,” he boomeranged and grinned some more.My brow arched up, unsure of what he was trying to say.“Yes, I’m yet to learn of the truth of your arrangement between Aero, my queen, but I’m pretty sure now to declare that your marriage with him is just a front.”It didn’t surprise me anymore how he got into that conclusion. It was clear to see he was an intelligent man. Instead of reacting with his declaration head on, I decided to turn the tables. It was my time to interrogate him.“I’m certainly curious, Lord Hale, tell me. Why bother yourself with the drama of this realm? What do you get from seeking the truth?”“Hmm, what do I get?” He made this expression on his face I could liken to a lion on th

< Serena >Yes, for whatever inexplicable reason, I was filled with the mad urge to please this man. Despite how unpracticed I was in this aspect, I was acting bold and sure. The thought of him hating women was lost in my mind. He didn't seem to act like one back in the party and he wasn't rejecting me as I advanced now.My wrist mark ached in sync with this need and it got my mind reeling of how good this ache felt as oppose to my earlier painful experiences back on Earth. I had already solved the puzzle with regard to this and it all went down to distance. The farther away I was from the king, the painful the mark throbbed, and the closer I am to him, well... it doesn't require a rocket scientist to figure that out.Maybe this wrist mark indeed had some incantation embedded so that we couldn't escape each other or maybe it worked to remind us we were married. Whatever it was, I wished I knew the answer.

< Serena >With all the stimulation earlier—both in a figurative and literal sense—I decided to soak on the pool inside my bathroom. Rhea, for some reason, hadn't shown herself to me and so I just helped myself, loading the pool with oils and essences enough to take off the king's smell of cum on me. Not like I didn't like it. It just would only make me remember our time earlier and his desertion and it would consequently piss me off.I tried hard to avoid remembering his face, his grunts, his uhmm...cock—its size and how handsome it was—or how he gloriously fingered me and with luck, it was a success. By the time I left the pool, I was refreshed and ready for a good night's sleep.So far, not one servant--or anyone for that matter--bothered to request me back into the party, so I reckoned they didn't need me there anymore. That was fine by me. I didn't want to see Lord Hale again and risk myself getting
