Rejected by the Alpha Claimed by the Lycan King

Alex stared at prince Danc. Elder Sander and another thirty people, who had conspired to stage a coup agai

Meanwhile, Northern and Greyson stood by his side, the two of them looked so pleased with Alex’s decision they were surprised with how cunning the king was.

They knew that Alex had a lot of tricks up his sleeves, but they didn’t think that even them, was being tricked

They thought Alex would really go to chase after Althea and abandoned his kingdom, they had voiced out the the king didn’t want to listen.

All of the preparation and the fifty ships were ready to sail in order to get the queen back. Fifty ships Which r percent of the warriors would come with them, leaving the kingdom in vulnerable state and it was the perfect anyone to stage a coup.

However, after an hour they sailed. Alex ordered for them to return to the capital city. This sudden order shock them, not only the royal beta and the royal gamma.

As it turned out, it was Alex’s strategy to lure their enemy to make their first mistake, because once they arrived. palace, they could see who was the traitors that would stab Alex’s back the moment he turned around

With the eighty percent of the warriors in their disposal and the surprise attack, as they didn’t think the king wou this quick, they caught all of the people, who tried to manipulate the palace and spread the nasty rumor.

To top it off, they found prince Dane was sitting in the throne, holding what looked like a morning court. The aud

that man.

Of course, they were punished severely and the punishment for traitor was death sentence. There no exception.

It took only half a day for them to take down all of the traitors and swept clean the entire court from those rats.

“Hang them all in the public area. Their execution will be tomorrow.”

That was all that Alex said. He used his enemy’s tactic to go against them and in the end, he came out as the winner.

But, did he give up on Althea? Of course, not,

“We will go a week from now,” Alex said. There were a lot of things that he had to “clean up‘ first before he took his mat his daughter back. He didn’t want anyone to talk nasty thing about Jasmine and the public punishment was enough as i example how scary the king could be.

Yes, respect had to be earned, but fear could be a tool to keep his subject in check and his enemy to think thrice before 1

made a move on him

“Are you still going to get her?” Greyson asked.

The throne room was quiet after all of them were being dragged away to the dungeon, waiting for their final moment bef they met their demised tomorrow.

Alex tilted his head and gave Greyson a look as if he was saying, what kind of question is that? Is that even a question.

If Althea was being kidnapped by his enemy and not that sickhead ex mate of hers, he would have gone and rescued her without thinking twice, but it was Killian. That man was obsessed with her and he had witnessed it countless time the way h looked at her and the longing and also regret in his eyes.

Yes, he knew it would be scary for Althea and she might think he wouldn’t come to save her, but he needed a little bit more time to arrange his affair here first, so when Althea and Jasmine returned, everything would be perfect for them and no one would dare to throw such insult and tarnish their name easily.

Therefore, though it was late, which Alex was ready to drop to his knees to ask for Althea’s forgiveness, he would definitely come for her.

“What? I will be in charge for all the mess that you left behind?” Northern asked, he gave Greyson a look to tell him that his question was so silly.

The royal beta was happy enough that the king didn’t let himself to be blinded by his love for Althea and still had his best interest for the kingdom, with these whole ordeals, he knew that Alex was capable of handling and balancing his matter, whether it was his personal life or the problem at the kingdom and his court.

“Mess?” Alex raised his brows at the royal beta. “I literally handed you the traitor in a silver plate. I have not even talked about how the two of you kept complaining without any pause to think twice about my plan.”

Greyson raised his hand. “In my defense, you didn’t tell us anything about your plan. You literally tricked and

us, you know.”

Northern nodded, agreed with Greyson’s statement. He felt like a fool now. “You should have told us.

your pro

“Where the fun of it?” Alex tilted his head. “More so, it will be more believable this way, right? Your raving made it more real

They were at lost for word, too speechless to defend themselves apparently.

“I will prepare everything,” Greyson said, he wanted to leave the throne room as soon as possible, before Alex changed his mind and tried to settle score with him, by complaining to him all night.

“I will check our men, Northern said. “I have a lot of things to do.”

And with that, the two of them rushed out of Alex’s sight before the king could say anything and this brought smiled to his lips, though it didn’t really touch his eyes, because he missed Althea and Jasmine’s presence.

He wished he could go sooner than this, but he hoped, he wouldn’t be too late.

Althea. He whispered her name, as he leaned against his throne and stared at the moonlight.
