The Alpha King Who'll Avenge Me のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

I don't know how long I had been unconscious, but the sky was still dark when I opened my eyes and felt pain all over my body. I could smell blood, though I wasn't sure what part of me was injured. My body lay on broken branches and twigs that had miraculously saved me."Oh... my Goddess," I whispered hoarsely.I didn't dare move, the pain was unbearable. Maybe I had broken bones, I wasn't sure. If I had been a normal human, I would have been dead.Then everything that had happened came rushing back to me and I felt a deep shock. Benson and Tracy—I never thought they would betray me like this. We cared for each other all this time.If they had been cruel to me since our parents got married, I wouldn't be surprised to end up in this terrible condition. But they were so kind, which made their betrayal even more heartbreaking.My body sensed something else. There was a powerful insting, sharp and almost intoxicating. The aura felt strange, exuding strength, passion, sadness, and yet a se

Elijah arrived at the boutique right on time, and without saying a word, he took me away. We rode in another car, a black limousine, and I had to sit next to him, feeling very uncomfortable.William's pack lives in another part of Alderwood. Elijah had separated from his family, though his reasons remain a mystery. I didn't dare ask, of course.From his brief explanation, I learned that his full name was Elijah William. He was a descendant of the royal pack, twice my age. I would never have guessed that this 38-year-old man looked at least a decade younger."By the way, how old are you?" Elijah asked.I cleared my throat. "I turned 19 in May.""You didn't shift, yet?""Last year.""Your wolf?"What was going on here? Why was he interrogating me like this? I couldn't calm down at all."I didn't..." I choked out. "My wolf. I don't have it.""That's strange. Maybe it's still hidden somewhere. Or maybe... you're just not worthy of having one."His words tore at me, but I remained silent, c

Nothing significant happened after we made our deal. I wasn't confined to my room; I could walk around the mansion only in certain rooms. I hadn't seen Elijah in a week, only Vincent occasionally.I never ate in the dining room, preferring to eat in the kitchen with three other Omegas who worked here as maids: Flo, Kat, and Tris.They'd all been working here for almost two decades since Elijah became Alpha King at twenty. The same was true for Vincent, who served as Beta and hadn't left Elijah's side in all those years.They were careful with their words, and none mentioned the rumored curse on Elijah's former Luna."Hurry up with your meals," Kat urged her two friends. "We have a lot of work to do before tomorrow."Tomorrow, the mansion will host a grand banquet to which all the families and alphas under Elijah's rule will be invited. The event will introduce Elijah's Luna, which is me.A feeling of dread filled me. First, I couldn't eliminate my fear of the curse despite everything.

"Change your clothes now!" Elijah's voice was low but intimidating. I shook my head. "No." "You want to pick a fight with me?" His power radiated, making me feel unsteady. Eugenia reached out to support me, but she, too, was affected by Elijah's power. "Please, my king. If you do this, everyone will feel your wrath," Eugenia pleaded. "So be it! Let them know that anyone who defies me will suffer the consequences!" Elijah grabbed my chin, his gaze cutting into me. "Like you, little Omega, I could get rid of you right now!" Our eyes locked, his stare slicing through me like a blade. I could only gasp softly, the pain overwhelming me. "King Elijah, please!" Eugenia's voice trembled. Silence. No music. Just the murmur of the crowd. Elijah released his grip, exhaling sharply. "I'll have Delilah change now, but... everyone has seen her in this dress," Eugenia said, pausing. "Won't that raise questions, my king?" In my mind, I was confused; why did these royal wolves care so much

I made a grave mistake by bringing that Omega back with me. I should have just let her suffer and die slowly at the bottom of that ravine. But when I first smelled the wolfsbane so strongly on her, I didn't expect her to survive and carry on. She has a strong survival instinct, or so I thought then. However, I was wrong. And now that I've introduced her to everyone as Luna, it will be almost impossible to take my decision back. Even if no one dares to show it in front of me, behind my back, they'll be looking for any chance to undermine me. The royal families all wear masks over their natural wolf instincts. These masks are so ingrained that you never know when they're genuine or ready to stab you in the back. I walked down the stairs and back into the hall, where Elena approached me with her usual leisurely steps. Her mischievous smile greeted me. As far back as I could remember, I had never seen genuine warmth or sincerity on her face. "Happy?" I asked quietly. "Well,
