Semua Bab DESTINED TO BE QUEEN: LYCAN KING UNEXPECTED MATE : Bab 171 - Bab 180

Shola sat on her bed, staring at the wall. Her body was still. Her heart was not. She had turned off the lights, hoping the darkness would help calm her mind. But nothing worked. Not even the cool breeze from the open window. The scent of the night air brought no peace. Her lips still tingled, remembering Alec’s kiss. And her heart… her heart refused to slow down. Her phone buzzed again. Thomas. Her boyfriend of two years. The man who had always been there. Gentle. Safe. Kind. She ignored the call. Tears gathered in her eyes. “What’s wrong with me?” she whispered. She touched her lips, then pulled her hand away quickly as if they burned. She felt dirty. Weak. Guilty. Alec had kissed her. She had let him. No, worse, she had kissed him back. And it felt like her soul was on fire. Her body had responded in ways she didn’t understand. Like it already knew him. Like it belonged to him. And now, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t forget the way he made her feel. She cl

Silence. That was all there was. The soft hum of the air purifier and the distant clinking of cutlery from the estate staff were the only sounds breaking the still morning. Inside the large dining room, the atmosphere felt heavier than the air itself. “Can I come in?” Her voice was soft but clear, finally breaking the silence between them. He turned slowly, his expression unreadable. “Please,” he said, gesturing toward the dining table with a gentle nod. Without another word, he walked ahead, his tall figure calm and commanding. She followed, her steps quiet against the polished floor. When they reached the table, he pulled out a chair for her, an unexpected act of gentleness from a man who radiated power. She sat down, sinking into the plush velvet chair and exhaling deeply, as though she had been holding her breath for far too long. He took the seat across from her, composed as always. On the outside, he looked like a man in control. But inside, he was anything but. There w

“Alright, that’s enough talk about Alec’s new mate,” King Maxwell said firmly, yet with a grin tugging at his lips. His deep voice echoed across the marble courtroom as his children broke into another round of teasing laughter. Alec chuckled too, rubbing the back of his neck. He had been the target of his siblings’ jokes all morning since the news of him finding a mate in the human world broke out. But he didn’t mind, not really. There was a glow in his eyes that hadn’t been there before. Then his expression shifted slightly, thoughtful. “Where is Father Farrell?” he asked, casually, yet the weight of the question made the room fall silent. It was a good question. They all knew Alpha Farrell was supposed to accompany King Maxwell to the Magic Kingdom today. The two rarely made appearances apart unless something had happened. Now, curiosity and concern swept through the children like a sudden breeze. King Maxwell’s smile faded just a little. “He should be on his way,” he replie

The wind howled outside as thunder rolled in the sky. Rain splashed against the windows like angry fists. But inside the room, it was warm and quiet. Too quiet. Shola blinked twice, struggling to understand what had just happened. A few minutes ago, she was trapped on the collapsing bridge. Water was rushing under her car. Her fingers were shaking on the steering wheel. She thought she was going to die. But then he appeared. Out of nowhere. Alec. One second she was crying, trying to call for help. The next, she felt strong arms lift her like she weighed nothing. The world spun around her. There was a bright flash of light and then… they were here. His room. Safe. Warm. Dry. She stood, drenched and shivering in the middle of his bedroom. The storm still roared outside, but she could barely hear it now. All she could hear was her heart beating wildly in her chest. Her voice trembled as she asked, “Who exactly are you?” Alec didn’t answer. Instead, he walked behind her, quietly. H

Her whispered plea echoed in his ears, sharp and raw. "F**k me, please." Alec froze. His body was already at the edge, every fiber strained, coiled, trembling with hunger. But her words, her breathless, desperate request, was the match to a wild fire he had tried so hard to cage. His eyes, glowing faintly golden from the effort of keeping his beast down, bore into her pleading face. He had been with women before. Many. It had always been about lust, pleasure, dominance. No strings. But this was different. This was his mate. Shola. The one the Moon had tied to his soul. The pull was too strong, magnetic in a way that was terrifying. And she, so soft, so human, had no idea what she was inviting into her body. What beast she was unleashing. What it meant to be taken by him. What if he broke her? She reached for him, her delicate hands against his hard chest, her voice trembling. "Please, don't leave me like this. It will kill me. I want you inside me." His muscles flexed, his ve
