All Chapters of BOUND TO THE ALPHA KING: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

KATHERINE I sat at my desk long after the judgment hall cleared out, staring at the blank computer screen till my eyes started stinging bad.The words I voiced inside kept ringing in my mind. Everyone shifted their gaze toward me as if I’d sprouted a head or something unusual. Stephen and his senior members believed they had the insurgents completely understood. They remained stuck pursuing illusions convinced the detained smugglers were the players but the true scheme—the actual method of getting supplies to the rebels—remained deeply concealed.I didn't eat lunch at all. The maids knocked at times their voices were polite and soft, asking if I wanted a tray delivered or if I planned to join everyone downstairs for the meal. I simply muttered that I wasn't hungry and continued scrolling through tabs tapping links that went nowhere.I had been searching for hours by now. Initially I looked into the five alphas Stephen defeated years back—Aaron Bradley and his fellows. Mostly public

KATHERINE My breath caught as I stared at his face. He's always been very attractive,but seeing him in the traditional attire had me on a chokehold. He stood tall and proud, the attire wrapped perfectly around his body, showing all his muscles and biceps through the thin fabric.It took everything in me to avert my gaze from his and stared at the cold hard ground instead. I mentally scolded myself for looking at him like he was some piece of snack and that would only soothe his ego.He made his way towards me. Each step he took made my heart skip a beat. I tried to act like his presence didn't drive me insane, or a part of me didn't leave to run my hands clinging the thin line of the fabric clung solely to him.He smirked, but it wasn't a casual one. It almost looked like he could see through me, he could tell what was going through my head and it rubbed his stupid ego.I cleared my throat, easing the tension between us. That was when I was able to look at him closely, my eyes follow

KATHERINE Leona's eyes lit, like they had just struck gold. Her smile broadened a s stance became more confident. I exchanged glances with Rowan who looked equally confused by her appearance. She smirked. “I always knew there was something going on between the both of you. And thus just proved it. There's no way you're ever getting away from this now.”I bit down on my lip, fighting the urge to scoff. She was just plotting a new plan, trying to ruin my image and create a rift between me and Stephen—not like there was something special there before.“Can you stop with your accusations?” I scoffed. “You don't even know what's going on and you go around pointing fingers when you don't even have any proof to back it up.”Leona remained unfazed, her eyes stared disgustingly at me. “What the fuck do you say to me? Haven't you got a lot of service despite the fact that you don't have a lot of favors right now.”I stepped forward, a new sense of confidence surged in. “You listen to me clear

KATHERINE He wrapped his habds tightly around my waist, refusing to let go. Heat radiated through my body snd for some reason, I was loving hid touch on me. I almost gagged at thr thought of warming up to him, and tried to remove his hands but he remained headstrong. “What were you two talking about?” He asked, his voice low and dangerous. I exchanged glances with Rowan, who looked equally confused. My lips trembled, but I managed to speak. “We were just talking about the banquet and how much effort lord Payne put into it,” I lied.Thr words flowed out of ny mouth so naturally. So easily. It felt like thst was ehat we had actually been doing. I dared myself and looked at Stephen straight in the eyes, his gaze not leaving mine.“What? Have a problem with that?” I sneered. His eyes dragged On, not keeping mine for a second. A smug smile formed on his lips, snd his gaze darkened. “Ofcouse not,” he replied curtly.Then added, “I have no problem with my wife interacting with everyone a

STEPHENI was standing in the big private room with Lord Payne and some of the elders, talking about boring stuff like duties and responsibilities. Lord Payne was trying really hard to sound important, making jokes about how hard it would be to manage all the other high lords. I forced a smile, but honestly, my mind wasn’t even on the conversation. My thoughts kept drifting to Katherine.Then, we got to talking about my mate, the Lady of my house, which obviously meant Katherine. Everyone started laughing, joking about how hard it would be to control their mates. Some elders whispered things under their breath, smirking. I didn’t laugh. I didn’t even smile. My chest felt tight, like someone was squeezing it.And then, out of nowhere, one of my guards barged in. Not properly, just like, leaning in and whispering. “Um, Lord Stephen… there’s something online. A video.”I frowned. “A video? About what?” I asked, trying to keep calm.He hesitated, whispering even quieter. “It’s… about… Kat
