All Chapters of A Night With The Alpha King: Rejected And Reclaimed: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Aria’s POV~Eight days later~Every morning, as I woke up to prepare for training with Hunter, I could sense Knox’s disapproval. But true to his word, Knox had never tried to force me to stop. Sometimes, he would accompany me to the training area, before he went off to do only God knows what. We had both agreed that I would stop the strenuous activities when I got to the third month of the pregnancy, as werewolves’ pregnancies were only for five to six months.However, training with Hunter was getting frustrating. Hunter only made me run, nothing more. Yes, my speed and endurance had increased greatly; I wanted to move to the other part, the fighting part.I rolled my eyes as I ran. This was the fourteenth lap, and I felt like my body was going to break down at that moment. On the fifteenth lap, my legs were shaking so badly that I had to stop running to avoid falling down.As usual, Hunter handed me a bottle of water with a cold look on his face. Today, I was so annoyed that I ignore

Aria’s POVThe room was full of tension. Two healers stood beside him, monitoring his vitals, while his parents stayed with him for support. I couldn’t help but notice that everyone in the room kept glancing at the clock as his time got closer.“L...” He struggled to speak, looking in my direction with drooping eyes.The other people in the room turned their attention to me, before they continued what they were doing after giving me small bows.I gave him a small smile as I approached his bedside. “You’ve always been so stubborn. I told you to rest and save your strength.”His eyes glinted with amusement, but he couldn’t form the words. I knew what he wanted to say. Then he gave me a questioning look. “Al.....Ki...” He mumbled weakly.I nodded. “Yes, I’ll make sure I introduce you to the Alpha King.”Cole had made me promise that when he died, I would introduce him to the Alpha King. It had been a very strange request, but there was no way I was going to say no to his request.The lig

Aria’s POV I watched in horror as the healers announced Cole’s death. My breath caught in my throat, and my body felt like it was sinking into the floor. It had all been in vain. We were too late. We couldn’t save him. A sense of numbness settled within me as I stared at the lifeless body on the bed. His skin was so pale, and his tiny chest was motionless. Jade took advantage of the crying parents and the chaos to slip away from the room. “We were too late,” I murmured, as the pain rushed through me. “No, we weren’t.” Jade mumbled, walking away from the room. I was confused. “What do you mean? He is dead!” I asked. Jade scoffed, almost sounding amused. “You were the one that said you wanted it subtle. The boy will be fine. The curse had eaten into him deeply, so it might take a little while before he wakes up.” I shook my head, I was finding it hard to believe her. False hope would only hurt worse. “But his heart has stopped,” I argued. “No, it hasn’t. I put his body into a for

Aria’s POV Disappointment washed through me as I stared up at the ceiling. I glanced at Knox sleeping heavily beside me, and I frowned slightly. Was something wrong with me? Why didn’t he do it this time? I had really thought this was it. I had thought that this was the moment that Knox would take this to the next level by marking me, but he didn't. ~Flashback~ Knox’s eyes glowed red – Fenrir was in control. His canines grew longer, and his claws grew sharper as he pinned me to the bed. As he thrust into me, he lowered his head to my neck. Without any hesitation, I turned my head to the side to give him easy access to do what he needed to. His breath was hot against my neck, and I shivered in anticipation. His tongue slipped out and ran along the side of my neck, right where his mark should be. His canine scraped against my neck, and I released a breathy sigh. Finally, he was going to do it. I thought to myself. Suddenly, he tensed on top of me, and began breathing heavily, clench

Aria's POVHis body visibly tensed at my question. His jaw clenched, and his eyes avoided mine. “Aria… I—”“Don’t give me excuses,” I interrupted, keeping my voice firm even though. “I’ve waited. I’ve been patient, and I’ve never pressured you or brought it up. But every time you get close to doing it, you pull back. Why?”He ran a hand through his hair, exhaling sharply. “It’s not that simple.”“Then explain it to me,” I pressed. “Because right now, it feels like you’re holding something back. And I’m starting to wonder if you want to get a strong, powerful female to mark as your Luna, then keep me in the shadows as a kind of housewife mate.”It was so painful to think about.His eyes flashed with frustration, and for a second, they flashed red. “I will never do something like that,” he growled, his eyes darkening. “You’re my mate, my Luna, and my Queen. Always.”“Then why won’t you mark me?” My voice cracked slightly, no matter how much I tried to steady my voice.Knox stood abruptl
