All Chapters of Pregnant For The Enemy Alpha : Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

SCARLETTOver the course of the next four days, we waited. I learned that many of the clans in Fate pack still paid obeisance to the moon goddess and the true leader and that they were in danger of extinction.They were heavily taxed and mistreated from the time of the rogue king's rule. When I had seen Frederick after so long, I wanted to ask about my father. I wanted answers to my numerous 'whys’.Caleb had told me about my father, not being truly dead. And his turning rogue. Now, with all I had seen, especially with Frederick's appearance, I wondered if anything he said was true.But the question of why he left the throne he usurped, nagged at the back of my mind. His words echoed through my mind like a haunted refrain. They gave me leave to shudder when no one was watching. I discovered there was wisdom in facing my fears headlong, rather than running away. Acknowledging them made me cautious, more aware. Smarter. Perhaps these fears would help me obtain a shred of information.

SCARLETTThe party was every bit what one would expect from royalty.The people in attendance were extravagantly dressed and thank goodness, we did not look out of place with our dressing. Thanks to Harley for coming through with the makeup. I was able to prepare myself to look more decent than usual. Frederick had provided the entry cards so we had a somewhat smooth entry with no altercation. Well…almost no altercation.Special attention was paid to the people entering since they knew about the rebels. Although they didn't know what we wanted to do just yet, they were being extra careful anyway so they thoroughly searched bodies for weapons.Thankfully,we had thought it wise to not carry any weapon so we were cleared. At a point, I thought they would ask us to take off our masks, but they didn't to my very relief.“Stay close to me.” Adam grinded out, behind his mask. He was avoiding my gaze, but it was obvious that he was talking to me. “Don't stray far, I can onlybprotect you tha

CARDANThe sound cracked through the hall like thunder.His head snapped sideways, blood splattering across the marble floor. Gasps followed, sharp and synchronized, but no one dared move.The Rogue King leaned back in his chair, watching with pleasure as he measured and tested.I hit him again. And again.Until the chains rattled and his body slumped forward. I kept my face blank and cold.“Talk,” I ordered.He spat blood at my boots. “Never.”The crowd murmured. The King’s aura darkened.For a split second, my mind was chaos. Strategy versus conscience. I couldn’t let the informant’s identity be revealed, but I couldn’t expose my ties to Cassius either.So I did the only thing I could.I drove my dagger straight into his heart.The blade slid in clean. His body jerked once and went still.Silence fell over the hall.“Loyalty,” I said, pulling the blade free, “is a choice. Betrayal… is a death wish.”The Rogue King’s mask tilted slightly, approval in every line of his body. Then he

CARDAN For a reckless moment, all I felt was her warmth and defiance and that familiar fire that used to undo me completely. Her taste was the same. Sweet in a way that drove me crazy.And fuck, I had missed it. Missed her. Missed this.The part of me that had sworn to stay in control shattered the second her mouth met mine. It wasn’t supposed to happen, not here, not now, not when the walls themselves were crawling with spies. But she had fallen into me like that, I couldn't resist her. But I couldn't throw everything away. The game I was playing.I shoved her off me as gently as I could.Her eyes, when they met mine, were wide and raw, with betrayal and confusion.“Don’t,” I rasped, my voice rougher than I meant it to be. “Don’t look at me like that.”She scrambled back to her feet, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand as if she could erase what had just happened. “Like what?” she bit out. “Like I finally see you for what you are?”I forced a breath, steady, careful. “You s

SCARLETTI swallowed the bubble of nausea that suddenly rose up my throat.So it was true. It was true that my father hadn't died. He was not dead!He was here, alive, and standing before me as the monster who had burned kingdoms, slaughtered Alphas, and became this evil legend.The Rogue King.“You…you…” I stuttered, struggling to make sense of what was unfolding in front of me. My brain couldn’t piece it together, couldn’t make sense of the impossible. “You’re supposed to be dead.”My heart skipped and drummed as he held out a hand towards me, leisurely sipping wine from a goblet with the other hand.He smiled, slow and easy, as though my horror was a private joke between us. “And yet here I am.”He swirled the wine lazily like he was talking about the weather. “You’ve grown so much,” he said, voice full of dark pride. “So strong. So bold.” His eyes gleamed. “I’m glad.”Before I could move, his fingers curled around my arm and yanked me upright.The contact burned. His grip was firm
