Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Rogue King's Mate: Kabanata 81 - Kabanata 90

ANNAI froze. His words hit me like a punch to the stomach. “What do you mean?...why not?” I asked, my voice trembling.He doesn't answer, and he turns to walk away but I don't let him, I rush to block his path, “Answer me, Uriel. Why won't you accept me? I'm your mate!”His voice is cold and firm. “Yes, you are. But I'm not married to you. What we had last night was a mistake. Nothing can come out of it. Except you wish to be the woman who warms my bed.”I stared at him in shock, trying to process what he had just said to my face. My chest ached, my pulse racing in my ears. This couldn’t be real. The man who had given me everything despite everything was telling me, I was nothing to him, I meant nothing other than a bed warmer.I was no less than a prostitute. Throwing myself at him. I felt foolish and humiliated. A strong wave of anger flushed through me, without thinking I swung at him, and my punch met skin.Alpha Uriel didn't dodge, he took my blows with stride, his expression

ANNAI stood frozen at the scenario before me, I couldn't believe what I was seeing or hearing but the wide smile from Alpha Rueben and the tension in the air reminded me that this was very real.Alpha Rueben had indeed just asked me to marry him, from the corner of my eyes I could see Alpha Uriel staring daggers at the Kneeling man, his nose flared as though holding himself back from lunging at the still smiling and very much kneeling man.“Anna?” He called with a smile, his voice composed and calm, and I wondered how he could be, especially with a human grenade behind us.My hands grew clammy at the pressure and I hesitated, stepping back, Reubens's smile didn't falter, instead, he reached for my arms, “Anna baby, I know I've done a lot of wrong towards you, that's why I'm here to make things right. You might feel this is too soon and you may be right, but I also think this right here is right.” He squeezed.“I need you, Anna. You complete me, I know that now, so please do me the ho

URIELThe harsh sound the door made as I pushed the door open, doesn't begin to reveal how angry I felt.With a swift kick, the door swung shut, locking me in to wallow in my feelings. My jaws clenched tightly grounding until my gums felt raw.I was pissed. That was just stating it lightly, my claws grew ready to rip into something or someone, Reuben's face came to me, and I felt my ache as my incisor grew an inch.“How could she be so reckless? A cheater of all people?” I growled, pacing the length of my office, not bothering to care what I stepped on.The image of Anna accepting Reuben’s proposal stuck in my mind like a nursery rhyme sung one too many times.My fingers curled into fists, my veins popping with the motion, my nails dug into my palms as I tried to push away the rage boiling in my chest.Mason growled, itching to take control “What did you expect? Was she supposed to keep waiting for your green light? Was she supposed to sit still and listen to you giving her others lik

AUTHOR'S POV“What's going on here?”The air grew tense at Anna's words, but she pushed on as though she felt nothing. Her eyes focused solely on Rueben who leaned on a chair with a goofy smile, at the sight of her.“What are you still talking about? Amyy sent you to go call Alpha Uriel for a meal not to chat?” She continued with a frown, her arms on her waist.Reuben broke into a shy smile, before he moved, reaching out to pull her into a hug, “Don't be angry ,baby, we were only having a little chat?”Her eyes narrowed at him, her heart picking up pace, as she forced herself to remain calm, “What does chatting mean?”Reuben chuckled, throwing Alpha Uriel a conspiratory look, “Oh you know, just guy talk. That's all.”Anna pinned her gaze on him for a moment longer as though searching for the truth, Reuben didn't flinch, instead he broke into a wider smile,and he pulled her tighter “I'm being honest, baby. You can ask the alpha himself.”At the mention of his name, Anna finally looked

ANNAThe words I’d thought soon became reality when the warning bells rang. The shrill cry sent terror into my heart.I froze.My heartbeat thundered in my ears as my mind raced to process what I had just heard. The thick smoke quickly filling up the room pushed me into action.The door handle was too hot, I searched wildly for anything thick enough to use as a barrier, and my eyes landed on a thick row of magazines, Amyy had placed on my desk before she left.“Here, take these. You'll need them.” Despite each magazine holding hoards of abominable dresses, she hadn't listened when I had told her no, insisting that there were styles in Vogue. Without an ounce of guilt, I lunged for the pile, ripping them into shreds, pulling them up until I felt it looked thick enough to use.My throat felt raw as I coughed violently, trying my best to breathe as much clean air as possible.I stumbled towards the door, placing my makeshift barrier, and a surge of joy flashed through me when I didn't
