All Chapters of Offered to the Cruel Alpha king: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

~ Athena I felt really relieved upon discovering that His Majesty was not just a mere werewolf as I had thought, but a Lycan king.A Lycan King!Who better to protect me from the cruel Alpha Sebastian than him? My heart almost exploded with immense joy. I was free. I was finally free! I would make sure to do everything he asks. I would gladly be a slave, wash dishes, cook food, do just anything to make myself useful in the Lycan pack.I looked at James and then at the tall, slender beautiful woman with thick black long hair and dark eyes whom His Majesty had called Jessica. They were Lycans too? Wow! I was truly in a Lycan pack, no one can get me now.I extended my hand to Jessica and closed my eyes as she had asked me to.I felt her try to penetrate my thoughts. I let her in but without giving her access to everything. I only allowed her to see what I wanted her to see. I didn't know how I was able to do that.After she asked who I was and I told her, her next question took me to

~ Alpha Sabastian It has been three days since Athena went missing. My wolf has gone haywire. It yearns for her. It wants no one at night but her!I walked down to the dungeon where I kept her parents. I had taken them hostage the morning after Athena escaped. They had to know her whereabouts. I would force it out of them.I got to the dungeon, and one of the guards opened the gate.I beheld Robert and his wife lying down weakly on the floor. I have kept them starved for two days, pending when they decide to say the truth.Upon seeing me, Robert tried to stand up, but his feet were too feeble."A…Alpha Sabastian, please spare our lives. We are being honest; our daughter never contacted us; she doesn't even have a cellphone," he stuttered. I could see the fear in his eyes; I could feel it radiate from his body. He was a weak man; I hate weak men!His eyes widened as he attempted to prefer a solution, "now that she has escaped, please give me some time to raise the money I owe you, Alp

~ RichardI was at the garden, waiting for James to fetch Athena. We received information from our contact that her father had been murdered. I had known for two days but didn't know how to break the news to her. I knew it would devastate her. Losing a parent is one of the worst things that can happen to anyone. It would make them feel abandoned and alone in this world marked by cruelty and evil. Unfortunately, I had to tell her; she had every right to know.I heard footsteps approaching from behind and turned to see her. She was absolutely breathtaking even while clothed in the garments of a maid. How does she do that? How does she manage to be effortlessly beautiful all the time?I could feel through our bond that she was excited, but I didn't know what that was about. She greeted me, and I responded.I needed to tell her now. I felt sad and angry at Sebastian. It was his fault, the fact that I was about to kill Athena's joy. When our contact told us that he had held Athena's paren

~AthenaThe maids and I have been busy all morning, running errands for the 30 maidens, "The Qualified." Today was their big day, the day one of them gets to be selected by His Majesty during "the Hunt."Princess Claudia had me on her beck and call. I had just returned from the laundry, which was about 5 minutes away on foot from her quarters. She had stained her beautiful white silk gown and had given it to me to take to the laundry and back.I suspected it was intentional; she had done that to frustrate me. It now felt as though her sole reason for living and breathing was to make my life miserable. My suspicions were confirmed when I brought back the dry-cleaned cloth from the laundry and saw her in her room with Ms. Jessica, the Chief of Staff, wearing a white beautiful gown that suited her pale skin perfectly, making her look pretty. I wore a confused expression on my face. I looked at the cloth I held in my hand, the same one I had wasted 45 vain minutes for, and looked at th

~RichardI was teasing her, trying to make her feel at ease as I could sense how nervous she was. In fact, she was an absolute wreck, and I couldn't blame her. All night, she had a million chaotic thoughts spiraling through her mind, trying to make sense of why I had chosen her, but even I myself didn't have a clue as to why I did what I did except for the fact that she was my mate."I… I… will shower alone," she stuttered breathlessly as she craned her head to the side to refrain from looking at my groin. I could feel the effect I have on her. I could smell her desire; she wanted me, but not as bad as my wolf wanted her."Alright, I will shower first," I sighed.While in the shower, I couldn't get the thoughts of what had happened that night out of my head. The horrified look on Jessica's face and the surprised look on my brother's. A lot of people are going to try to kick against my decision by tomorrow, tell me how my decision would invariably weaken the royal bloodline and how ma
