The Alpha King's Plus Size Substitute Bride
I stood beside the clear crystal bed, my broad shoulders shaking with a heavy, broken sob as I looked down at my silent Queen.
Her long dark eyelashes rested perfectly still on her cheeks, her small chest rising and falling in that steady, tiny murmur under her dark leather dress. She looked so beautiful, so graceful, and so peaceful lying under the glowing blue light, totally untouched by the brutal war and dark traitors waiting in the world above.
I reached out with my big, calloused hand, my thick fingers gently cupping her cold, soft cheek while hot tears spilled fast over my broad face, dripping onto the clear blue crystal.
