The Alpha King And The Shadow 소설 & 이야기

“You’re the king. You can’t just walk away from a room full of Alphas because your mate feels… scared.” His expression shattered — hurt and anger and disbelief mixing in a storm of gold. “Alara,” he whispered, “you’re not ‘just scared.’ You were targeted.” “But you don’t know that.” “Yes. I do.” Something dark and possessive flickered across his features. “The Shadow Alpha is reaching for you,” he said quietly, words weighted with dread. “And I will not give him an inch.” My heart hitched. A pulse — of fear, of longing, of confusion — rippled through our bond. It tugged painfully at my ribs. But guilt twisted beneath it.

Elric scolded the rogues like misbehaving children. Then the earth seemed to shudder. A massive figure tore from the chaos...larger, darker, older. The Shadow Alpha. He didn’t move like a wolf. He moved like a curse that remembered it had claws. His presence chilled the air. His eyes locked onto Aria. I stepped in front of her before I even breathed. “You,” the Shadow Alpha growled. “Your hinge will break. Your moon will fall. The darkness knows your name.” “And I’m not impressed,” Aria snapped.

Just when I was about to give up, the door burst opened revealing beta Gideon in the room with a murderous look on his face. "Well, well, she who we have here?" The beta took two steps forward immediately he saw me, with his hands clapping against each other. "You seem to be such a wise little boy, not as dumb as your father. So you think you could overthrow me? We made a deal and now, you turn to break it. Perhaps, you should have thought about all this before you took this bow step of yours to fight me. I already told you that, I am Alpha of Shadow Pack and there is no one who is going to overthrow me or ever going to rule except me.” I rolled my eyes, feeling bored by his statement.

AS CLOHE made an effort to step around the Alpha King, he twisted his neck and glanced at her over his shoulder with a shake of his head. Clohe gulped thickly as she suppressed the shriek that was begging to break free from her mouth. She had no real idea what was going on and she personally feared the Alpha King over Shadow. So she dipped her chin and stepped back to where she had previously stood; behind the Alpha King. THE ALPHA KING buried his head and rolled to one side as Shadow howled and sprung through the air, his lips drew back to reveal his sharp, pointed teeth. While he watched as Shadow landed a few feet away from him, he utilized his whip sword to push himself up to his feet ag

“How do you know this?” “Oh it’s not a secret, your highness, everyone knows about it. We call him the shadow Alpha. We just don’t talk about it out of fear but we were all here when he first left the palace for good. The Alpha King had been so angry, I thought he would even kill him. They searched everywhere trying to bring him back. Eventually, they had to give up.” “Oh, does the Alpha know about this?” “Of course, he too ordered a few search rounds on him.”

“The Alpha of Shadowed Banes.” *****

So this was his plan— to infiltrate my compound and kill my father. “He’s my mate’s father, Sebastien. If I didn’t give him a second chance to live, I wouldn’t have given you a chance to be my father for risking my mate’s life. Now, please let him go.” Everyone around us gasped as they figured out the Alpha King was Shadow's father. “I can’t do that, Shadow.” He exposed his fangs toward my mate, snarling. His eyes glowed red. “Then I can’t be your daughter. You and I are over once you take his life, and I will consider you my enemy.”

A mirror image of Fiona, but corrupted, consumed by darkness. “What the hell is that?” I muttered under my breath, my muscles coiling with the instinct to protect. Before I could move, the shadow turned toward me, its lips curling into a cruel smile. “Ah, the Alpha King,” it hissed, its voice an eerie echo of Fiona’s. “So quick to protect what’s already lost.” Fiona’s eyes snapped to mine, wide with terror. “Quinton, help!” she cried, her voice trembling as the shadow reached for her, its dark tendrils wrapping around her like chains.

My voice shook, and my hands trembled in my lap. He sneered. “Do you think I chose you because of affection?” His words stung. “You are so worthless that even the strongest thing about you is useless to your own body.” He snarled before I could respond, making me flinch in my seat. “Your blood is what he needs. The Alpha King is dying. Kaven is the rightful heir to the throne, and if he does not recover soon, he will lose it. And all my effort to make Selene queen will be wasted.”
