Focus On Yourself King Novels & Stories

“He and his mate live in Kentucky right now, I think? They have a pup, as well. So let’s see if I can convince him.” We lapsed into a silence for a while. I was about to say something when Vale shook his head. “Don’t…Hector. I can’t…I have to focus. If I dwell on it for too long, I’m going to lose my mind. Clinging to the fact that he is alive is all I can do. We have to save those kids. Have to stop this war that could kill more and have ripple effects across the world. I have to be King.” He stood up and headed to the door.

"The Ashford Pack is weak. They waste time caring for the fragile and the broken. Focus on your duties, Kael. Lady Selena expects your courtly attendance at evening supper." Kael stares at the man on the throne, really looking at him for the first time in his life. He sees the grey hair, the fine lines of cruelty around the mouth, the absolute deadness in the King's eyes. This is the man he tried so hard to please. This is the ruler he ruined his own soul to become. "I am going to get her back," Kael says quietly, his voice dropping into a register so dark it makes the guard at the heavy oak doors shift uncomfortably.

“You are not walking into that room as a breeder.” I stared at him, my brain picking his words one by one. “You're walking in as the woman I chose to have beside me.” “And if anyone has a problem with that,” he continued, “they can tell me.” A small smile tugged at my lips despite myself. “You're really going to make everything about yourself, aren't you?” “I'm the King. It's kind of my thing.” I laughed softly, finally feeling some of the weight in my chest ease… not all, though.

“My King, ab-” “If it is about your obsession with assuming that she was ‘my Regina,’ just forget about it and move on, Arlan. Just do what I asked you to do and prepare for the upcoming competition for who will be my crowned ‘Regina.’” King Hades butted him before he could even continue what he was about to say. “But-” He was about to explain his side when his eyes met that intensifying glare of the King. Arlan swallowed hard. “So, would I just cut your throat right here, right now, then?” He warningly said as his evil smirk appeared on his lips.

Though it is rare to hear the king say something like that, he knew he was struggling deep inside with the past events. King Astius didn't answer. He was just staring down at the floor, trying to keep himself calm. There's so many things that he wanted to do but only remained inside his mind. If only he could go out there to look for them, he would've done it a long time ago. He was aching to see his son. As the time passes by, he was only getting more and more stressed, anxious and paranoid. Not to mention the fear of not seeing him again as the enemy was nothi "So I think your majesty should not worry that much and focus first on his recovery," Ado added.

He had to be strong and he had to be ready to protect his people from a leader who only cared about himself. "The position of the King is very powerful, and my brother has always wanted to be the one who tells everyone else what to do. But a real King must care about the people and not just about his own glory and his own gold," Jake said. He stood up from the table and walked around to stand behind Alona, putting his hands on her soft shoulders. He leaned down and whispered into her ear, feeling the sweet scent of her hair which always made him feel very calm. He wanted her to know that she was the most important thing in his life, and the throne was just a piece of metal to him.

Before she could do that, Queen Mother Meghan had already kicked the old woman and her grandson. "How dare you lowly people touch me? Don't create a scene. Today is the King's wedding. And even if thousands of people like them die or thousands of you all end up in the street, Country A will not suffer any loss. Country A is the biggest, most powerful, and richest kingdom in the world. Who could dare to defy us?" Queen Mother Meghan said proudly. After saying that, she ignored them and walked away from there but stopped when she heard the old lady say, "Remember, no one is greater than God. God is watching all of you. Everyone has to pay the price for their wrongdoing."

A king shouldn't fall in love, a king should be there for his people, a king should take care of them, but I'm a king who's alone and bored, I'm a king who fell in love with a mortal and is trying his best to bring her over to his world. It's not an easy task, it's one that has been driving me to insanity, do I scream, do I cry, but crying isn't something that a king does, her being away from me, god, if you hear me, if you remember me, I need help, I need your help with her right now. I pray to god for the first time in centuries now, I downed my drink and decided to go check on them, I'll deal with this like everything else, head first.

A place for his audience of one to watch the show. I sat, keeping my finger hidden as the King returned to the cell and retrieved Andrei. All the while, I channeled my energy into the ring—every ounce I could muster. I felt a warmth spread through me, and I held onto it like hell, refusing to let go, even when my head began to spin. By the time the King had prepared his show, I was ready.

I thought that with phoenix back, I could protect the pack without thinking of the decision-making aspect. Darted worriedly. What if I fail to make a good decision in the near future. I might've proven myself worthy of the position, but I could also prove myself unworthy with any slight mistake. Besides, I had never been a ruler before, I had no idea how it was being one. I was practically just following my instincts for now, but the more I sat down to think about it, the more worried I became.
