King Of Pride の小説・ストーリー

And that's exactly the reason why she didn't want to make reference to that past. "And for the King not to back down from the challenge simply means he is sure he is going to win. He has his pride to uphold," Nooni added. "Do you think the King cares about proving a point to anyone?" Kira asked. "King Barakar has always been a rebel, right from his youthful days as the Crown Prince. He doesn't care about his 'pride.'" "It is definitely going to be one fight we can't afford to miss. Master versus prodigy. Hmm," Nooni sighed. "I wonder who will emerge victorious."

“Of someone extraordinary who would unite all wolves.” Something tightens in my chest, but I don’t interrupt. “It never said man or woman, Kei,” she adds softly. “It could be anyone.” “No.” The word comes out sharp and immediate. My hands clench at my sides. “I am the king.” But for the first time, the words don’t sound convincing—not even to me. And that… That stings. It bruises something deep, something tied to pride, to identity, to everything I’ve been raised to believe a man—an Alpha—should be.

"Zoey, my brother's pride means everything to him. If he wants that million, let him win it himself. "I heard he's beaten several opponents in a row. Looks like Scarlett Jones from the fight club has been taking very good care of him..." The implication in his voice was filthy. Disgust flashed across Zoey's face. "As long as you kneel in front of everyone and apologize to Ronald right now, I'll still give you the million. "Otherwise, you'll have to take it straight from the lion's mouth." Every eye in the arena fell on me, certain I would give in.

He could not, and would not, leave a single flank exposed. Because right now, the King was bleeding. His navy suit was gone, replaced by a dark tactical shirt. His steel-blue eyes were dead, devoid of any humanity, staring at the phone in his hand like a man waiting for his own execution. He was ready to burn the entire city to the ground, to wage a war that would drag every syndicate into the abyss, just to find the woman who had stolen his cold, ruthless heart. Suddenly, the encrypted military tablet held by Cain in the front seat let out a violent, high-pitched ping.

The performance continued as other girls were called out , some decided to dance, sing while others did nothing but disgrace themselves. The king stood up abruptly from his throne looking so cold and angry, he glance at Maria's father his right hand man, he nodded at him and started walking out. at that his right hand man ran toward him whispering to him. it was obvious he that he was trying to persuade the king to stay, but the king totally ignored him and walk out. the man stood at the door where the king disappeared to,he was lost of words but he quickly regain himself.

'As expected, he sensed me,' Zaykee thought while getting off from Peace and returning him to the short bo. "So, we met again, but this time, in person," The king turned his body at his back, where Zaykee is standing. "So what?" Zaykee responded, and he didn't show any respect. "You got guts, huh?" The King's brows raised in a couple of seconds as he questioned him, maintaining his temper. "Yeah, of course. I am the strongest in my past life, so it's normal to have pride," Zaykee answered while glaring at his eyes, didn't feel his heavy pressure, but if he is just a normal person, his face will be against the ground.

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."

“You know very well what.” “Explain. For once.” “Murah, though you know much of the ways of this place, you don’t yet understand them. If he was not taken to account, then every man in there would’ve wanted to have a go at putting their hands on you. They’re almost like small children all wishing to push boundaries.” He tossed through his trunk, looking for a loose tunic to wear to bed. “What has any of that to do with me?” “Everything.” Savage paused to whip around and land a severe blue gaze on her. “You are the boundary I’ve set as King here, and they all know it.”

“If you leave this ceremony, the Red Moon Pack will no longer cooperate with you!” “I will never consider our deal fulfilled,” Norton growled. “You will lose all the support of the other alphas if you go down this road. I will never follow you into battle.” Candido turned from her and walked down the aisle towards me. He took my hand and shoved Norton aside. “I never imagined you were the type to actually go into battle, so it makes little difference to me,” Candido said. “The priest has spoken.” “You’re the king!” Norton cried. “What happened to that no longer just being a title?”

The area is lit by torches, giving the scene an ethereal and magical feel. “Tolba Pride!” Althea stood, the crowd quieting with the first syllable of her words. “Tonight, we celebrate the end of a cycle and the dawn of a new sun! Tonight, crowned prince Arik will receive the right of passage and take his rightful place as your king. On dawns early light he will claim his queen, and with the rise of a new sun, so will your new leaders!” The gathered Pride cheers at Althea’s words. She smiles down at the Lion shifters with pride and love. I sit by her side and on her other side sits Arik.
