บททั้งหมดของ Protect Me, Alpha King : บทที่ 131 - บทที่ 140

Alpha King MaxxwellThe beast was howling inside, feeling the pain of the severing of ties. Despite that, my heart and my wolf were calling for River. Zenith died, but Denaro was more affected by what happened to the other woman.I never expected someone would reject me. I was the alpha king—the king of the kingdom of Vernice. Only River had the guts to reject me without batting an eye. To say I was offended was an understatement.'You are fooling yourself, Maxxwell. Who says you are offended? Your pride and ego won't accept that you are dying inside because of losing two mates.'I inhaled deeply as I watched the sunset ahead of me. The sun's rays looked like blood splattered all around the sky. Just as how real blood decorated the Great Hall.Images of the gruesome scenery flashed in my mind. ‘Are you listening to me?''Yeah, I am listening,' I answered curtly to make him shut up. The last thing I wanted was to hear whining from him. 'Go after her!’ Denaro growled as a single tear

“I don’t think you can demand here, Your Grace. If Master Henderson finds out about this, he will punish me.” The woman trembled as if recalling the painful incident. My eyes darted to her wrist and saw burned marks. Damn that bastard. Did he not stop abusing his people? My eyes narrowed. “I don’t get you. Earlier, you told me to escape, yet you are here, afraid of what your master will do to you after asking you for some favor.”She hung her head low and let go of her pen. “I think that perhaps someone can get you out of here. I don’t want any more slaves to suffer. I saw enough.”"What a hypocrite." I scoffed. Her eyes widened. "I am not, Your Grace. I am only concerned for you," she mumbled. “Even if I have someone to save me, I do not want to jeopardize her life.” I stared at my hands. “I’ve seen a lot of blood and carried them every day. It’s already too much for me to handle. The guilt is killing me.”The woman’s eyes softened. “Your Grace. I wish…I could help you.”“You wa

I looked away as their eyes were filled with hope. I could not bear giving them false hope and crushed it in the end. That would be cruel. “Miss? Please… if you can save us, please do it now,” Dolly muttered. “I don’t want to be a slave. All I wanted was to go home to my parents.”“Miss. Please save us,” the other women chorused. Over again. Like a mantra. My chest felt heavy. If only… “Saving all of you is a huge responsibility I cannot do. I am powerless right now. My wolf left me after rejecting the alpha king. I… I also felt alone.”Chiyo staggered and fell next to Dolly. “We are doomed. We will become blood banks or sex slaves to those bastards.”The women cried helplessly. I clenched my fist. If only I could do something for them… But how? The security may be lax, but this place was heavily guarded. The guards were watchful of our every move. After all, we were considered goods. “I’m sorry,” was all I could say in the end. “I cannot do it.”The women cried even more. ----

Alpha King Maxxwell"Come again?" I asked, not believing my ears. I stood, sauntered towards him, and was in front of the beta. "Repeat what you said," I ordered. Beta Valentine gritted his teeth. "I will save the queen. I said."I scoffed. "Queen? This kingdom has no queen.""River Williams. She is the queen for me, Your Majesty. My wolf recognized her as my queen. Not Zenith. He is forcing me to save her and he won't stop until I give in."Why did everybody want to help the traitor? They were blinded by their emotions. Fool. "Why would you save her? Did I tell you, too? Tell me your reason so that I can understand it."The beta looked me in the eyes. "Did she no longer hold any feelings for you, Your Majesty?""Out of your concern," I growled. Wanting to escape from the beta's prying eyes, I sighed and went to the window, and stared below. The servants were hanging their washed clothes under the sun. "Your Majesty—""She is a traitor. She betrayed the kingdom.""It was her sist

"Do I?" the alpha asked. The corner of his lips lifted. “What do you think?”My brows furrowed. "I am the one asking. Who are you, sir?" I inquired. Was he as heartless as Alpha Wade? And speaking of that bastard, I wondered what happened to Alpha Erik. Did he die? I no longer see the doctor and forgot to ask Dion about the alpha’s whereabouts."Sir? Is that how you address your new master? Don't make me regret my decision to buy you. Or do you prefer that those blood-suckers buy you? I can ask Henderson to return you."That was acceptable as long as the transaction did not exceed twenty-four hours. However, I don't want to return to that greedy bastard who only thinks about business and profit. "What do you want to do with me?"He shrugged his shoulders. "Don't know. I will think about it.” My mouth fell open.Was he serious? He just bought me without thinking about how I could benefit him. Impossible. An impulsive buyer showing his wealth by buying me? “What can you do?”I smir
