All Chapters of The Alpha King’s Last Regret : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Pearl Gem Silence fell between His Majesty and me. For a moment, I wanted to slap myself for becoming so carefree in his presence. I had just slipped, mentioning my father’s surgery, my brother’s love for meat, and my own brokenness. Now, he was staring at me with that same look he wore when about to give an order I wouldn’t dare refuse. I was keenly aware of the audience we had and the hush his presence had commanded. Suddenly, the soft sound of footsteps pierced the stillness, heading in my direction. A fragrant scent followed. Floral and sweet, before a bouquet was extended toward me. “Congratulations, Miss Pearl Gem. Here is a bouquet for you,” A rich, deep voice said, pulling me back to reality. I turned my head gently and met the gaze of the man I’d seen earlier this morning. He had been far away then, but now, standing close, he appeared carved from stone with a square jaw and round, expressive eyes. My gaze drifted down to his fingers. That ring, identical to the on

Pearl Gem My eyes flutter open, and I lay still for a long time, wondering where I am and how I got here. Slowly, I try to rise, but I can’t move a muscle, so I remain where I am, fighting to get energy back into my veins, fighting to remember what happened. I had seen Drizzel in the arms of His Majesty, and a sharp pain had clawed through my chest, stealing my breath. Somehow, I managed to return to my office, sit before my computer, and pretend to work while the sound of them kissing echoed through the walls like poison in my ears. I don’t know what he was trying to achieve. If it was payback for speaking to Prince Xerox, or to punish me for lingering too long with him in the cafeteria or maybe it was both. But whatever his reason, whatever my sin to Kade King, the punishment was far worse. Drizzel and he had spoken openly about the dinner with her parents and brother, and I sat there like a fool, listening as each word sliced into my soul. It was the longest hour I hav

Pearl Gem It felt surreal. I can’t even tell if this is reality anymore or my fantasy. The fact that I am here with His Majesty, his palm caressing my thigh while I lean on him, his steady breath brushing against my ears. I do not want to arrive at the destination. All I want is to stay close to this man and forget all my worries. But wishes, especially from an Omega, are hardly answered. It was after an hour that Riven pulled the car into the loneliest path I never knew existed in the Wolf Empire. It is very dark, a large mountain ahead of us that seems like it will roll at any time, still he drives on. I begin to wonder where exactly we are heading when a tiny opening catches my attention. A place built as a parking lot. The car stops in the middle of parted rocks, and I pull away to peer through the window as Riven stops the car, making me wonder where we are. Before I could ask questions, Kade King has gently pulled away to alight. Then he opens the car door for me to

Kade king I wheeled my cousin brother into his bedroom and gently helped him out of the wheelchair, easing him onto the bed and tucking the duvet around him. A soft sigh escaped my lips as he relaxed, his eyes fixed on me. “Kade?” He called quietly, now that we were alone. “You must trust her more than life itself to bring her here.” For a while, I said nothing. I knew he was referring to Pearl Gem. “I trust her,” I admitted. “You love her?” He asked, making me swallow hard. The question itself felt like a sin. “She is an Omega.” “An Omega who has stolen an Alpha King’s heart.” “I dare not agree to that, Zephan. You know what’s at stake.” “The throne?” “Much more than that. The gift comes once in a lifetime. Only one bears it and it took everything for my bloodline to get here. Your mother too. I can’t let them down.” “Maybe you are the one making the stakes bigger than they are. Don’t you think it’s time the Omegas had their freedom?” I swallowed but stay

Pearl Gem I wouldn’t have woken up. I had no reason to. But the soft knock at the door forced my eyes open, and for a long moment, I lay still, trying to figure out where I was. “Your Majesty?” Riven’s voice came through the door, pulling me back to reality. Slowly, I looked up to take in my surroundings and the man lying beside me. I was curled against His Majesty, the Alpha King of the Wolf Empire. My head rested on his chest, his breathing slow and steady. His arm was wrapped around me protectively, and my bare breasts were pressed against his warm skin. I had seen Kade King in many lights, but never like this, peaceful, vulnerable. There was such calm etched on his face, it warmed something in my chest. He looked like a man who had finally found his haven. Even the knock didn’t stir him. I found myself smiling softly at his handsome face. Gently, out of curiosity, I reached up to touch his hair, soft and silky beneath my fingers. My hand moved to his thick brows, traci
