All Chapters of I Left My Husband For The Rogue King: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

WINTERThe next morning, after taking a long bath and getting dressed, I went downstairs into the hall and found Valtor waiting there. He was already prepared, just as he had said the night before that he would escort me. My head throbbed painfully from the lack of proper sleep, but the moment my eyes found him, a smile tugged at my lips.“Hey,” I greeted softly. “You’re already ready.”I walked up to him, and without a word, his arms slid around my waist, pulling me flush against him.“Valtor. Please, not right now. My family-"“I know. Just a little. I want to smell your hair.” He leaned in and pressed his lips against my hair, breathing me in. Then, with obvious reluctance, he pulled back. There's concern in his eyes. “Are you alright?"“Of course. Why?”"Your walk’s a little weird. And you left my room without saying anything.”Heat rushed to my cheeks. But I didn't want to look away, he was the one making me like this!“You punished me too hard last night,” I murmured with a play

VALTORThis was the first time in a very long while that my wolf, Magnus, had sent me a signal like this.And it could only mean one thing; Danger.If any of those mutts so much as laid a finger on Winter, I wouldn’t hesitate. I’d end them right here without a second thought. I brushed past the guard’s warning and forced my way into the meeting room. The moment I stepped inside, the heated arguments died instantly. All attention shifted, but mine went straight to Winter who stood pressed into a corner, surrounded by Kallias, Callum’s son, and the remaining council members.“Valtor,” she breathed, before stepping toward me until she stood directly in front of me. “I didn’t summon you, did I?”“I know,” I said, eyes never leaving her. “But I could tell you needed me. Did they start giving you trouble?”"No. Please, just wait for me outside. Let me settle this a bit more." Winter gave a smile, but it was forced. “No.” I placed a hand on her shoulder and eased her back until she stood b

VALTOR"Not only is this Pack sucks but its people are fucking cowards,” Loran hissed, tossing back the last of the whiskey in his glass.We were seated outside the room where he and my other guards were staying. After leaving the Grand Hall, I’d come here instead of returning to Callum’s mansion. As much as every part of me ached to see Winter, after the distance she’d asked for with the hurt in her eyes when she said she needed time, I forced myself to give it to her.I drained my own glass, hoping the burn would erase the awful weight pressing against my chest, the guilt of knowing I was the one who made my mate feel that way.“What did those idiots do now?” I asked.I had assigned Loran to keep an eye on this pack and dig up whatever he could. He and my other two guards had been stationed around the Grand Hall this morning as well, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he had uncovered something new."What do we do with our King’s surviving family when he dies? We honor them. We make sur

CRYSTAL“Have you decided when your coronation will be? The sooner, the better, Damien. Your father isn’t fit to lead anymore, he’s grown too soft. This pack needs you.” I asked, forcing my voice to stay even despite the disgust curling in my chest.“I’ll speak with him first. Though I have to say, this is the first time you’ve ever truly supported me. Strange.” He took a slow sip of his drink, watching me over the rim.Remembering everything Damien had put me through in the Winterwood Pack; the insults, the humiliation, and harassment, supporting him was the last thing I would ever do willingly. But I didn’t have a choice. He has to take action quickly. “It’s because I’ve finally realized how much more capable you are compared to Alpha Callum-"“Enough, Crystal. I’m not as stupid as you think.” Damien set his glass down and rose to his feet. “I know exactly why you want me to take the Alpha title. So Winter can be handed over to the Stoneclaw Pack as soon as possible."He moved towa

WINTERWe finally made it inside the inn. The moment Valtor set me down on the bed, I snatched the blanket and wrapped it tightly around myself.“Take that off. Let me see my favorite view,” he murmured—half-teasing, half-ordering.“No. I’m freezing." I said. And honestly, the last thing I wanted tonight was sex. Because i know it would completely derail the deep talk we needed to have. “I’m taking a bath first, then you can go after me. After that, we’re going to talk. No sex. The poor innkeeper was already shocked enough seeing us show up naked, he doesn’t need to hear our moans too."The old man who owned this place had known me for years and the shock on his face when we stumbled in like that was something I would never forget. I didn’t even get to explain before Valtor shoved a pouch of money into his hand, and just like that, he ushered us inside. My cheeks still burn thinking about it. My name here has already taken enough hits lately. I can’t imagine what stories will spread a
