Rejected by the Alpha Claimed by the Lycan King

Alex had his own plan in mind and for now, he only wanted to focus on wooing Althea over. He knew what to do with his court, but he didn’t have any idea how to win this woman.

He could use coercion to get her, to keep her by his side and she didn’t have any other choice, but to accept him, but then, if he did that, what was so different between him and Killian?

He was not different from that man that gave her trauma. He wanted Althea to give herself to him willingly, not out of force.

“Good morning beautiful,” Alex said, smiling at her when she opened the door for him. Her cute, surprised expression made him smiled wider.

If he could wake up to see her face all the time, he was willing to do anything that possible to make it happen.

“You look so gorgeous.”

Althea laughed, her laughter was akin to a song in his ears and her scent hit him. She had this sweet, refreshing scent that could calm his nerves.

He would be doomed, if he let her go and chose not to fight in the court for her, to keep it calm and peaceful, when he knew. sooner or later the elders would give him trouble, therefore, why wouldn’t he was the one, who chose ‘the trouble’ for himself?

“You are not so bad either,” Althea replied, there was this dark circles under her eyes, probably because she couldn’t sleep last night, thinking about his question, or maybe baby Jasmine woke her up.

Alex wouldn’t be able to know about that for sure.

“What are you doing here this early morning?” She asked lightly, her beautiful eyes lit up.

“I want to take you to have a breakfast in the dining hall.”

“What?”

Alex repeated the same thing and Althea widened her eyes, knowing how serious he was. “Alex, people will misunderstand your intention.”

“I don’t think they will misunderstand my intention, because it is very clear and you know that too.”

His attention was clear. He wanted her and he wanted to make her his equal. His one and only, the woman that would sit on the throne with him.

“Alex…”

“Will you go with me?”

And there. Althea was facing a ‘yes or no’ answer, it was always very clear with Alex. There was no ambiguity with him.

He wanted her and he showed it to her.

“I want them back, Killian said in the end of his story.

They had a long conversation and once they reached the conclusion, it was already morning, the sun filtered through the window and illuminated each dark corner of this room, getting pd of the coldness.

“Sure. I know how it felt-to-have your mate being unfaithful with you,” elder Sanders said.

Killian’s eyes sharpened with his last statement, he didn’t like someone was talking down about Althea, but he wouldn’t correct him, if it would help with his situation.

“I can help you, but first, you need to help me.”

Killian knew the drill of this and it was not a surprise for him that elder Sanders wanted something in returned, to be honest, it was fair.

“What do you want for me?”

“I want you to help to get the king down from the throne.”

Killian was not sure about the political climate in the mainland, but it was not hurt to ask, since he would get involved in this shit soon.

“If you wanted to get the king down from his position, who do you have in mind to sit on the throne? Do you want the throne? Killian narrowed his eyes at elder Sanders, once he got out of this palace, he would figure out, who were these people.

“No. Of course not.” Elder Sanders chuckled and waved his hand, which made Killian wanted to rip his face, he hated it when someone laughed at his expense. “Prince Dane. He will take the throne. He is a better person than Alex to sit there. It’s his birthright to sit there.”

Killian raised his brows.

Later on, he learned that prince Dane was king Alex’s older brother, but even though he was the oldest between them two, but he was born from a mistress.

For a few years, they thought the king would name him as his heir, but when the queen gave birth to a boy, that wish shattered.

Elder Sanders was the grandfather of prince Dane, which made him the father of the mistress. He had planned everything and set everything up, but Alex birth ruined them all.

He was still chasing for his grandson’s right.

Killian couldn’t care less about any of that. He only wanted to get Althea and Jasmine back to his pack. That was all, they could rip each other face and fight over the throne, that was none of his business.

And when they were in the middle of the conversation, someone knocked on the door and a warrior entered the room, he whispered something to elder Sander’s ear,

“Do you want to see your mate and your baby?” Elder Sander asked. He stood up. “This is a great opportunity come with me.”

Killian raised his brows, but he said nothing, as he followed Elder Sanders out of the room.

to see them,

The warriors that came in had informed the elder that the king took the woman to the dining hall and unofficially introduced her to the people there.

This was the king’s bold move that even Northern and Greyson didn’t see it coming and for Althea, she simply couldn’t turn down the offer with how charming Alex could be when he wanted to.

Not only that, he carried the baby in his arms himself, which made all the jaw dropped and the room became quiet

In one hand, the king had the baby and the other hand, he held Althea’s hand, the message was clear and loud.
