The Alpha King's Hated Slave
The Alpha King’s Hated Slave Chapter 296-Epilogue

Five years later….

It is a happy day in the Palace of Kingdom Avalon, as Kamara and Declan celebrate the birth of their second child, Princess Ainaa.

A huge feast is held in the Court, a lot of people attended too. Sally and her family sat at one side of the round table, a huge smile on her face as she tries to feed solid food to her own second whose her youngest.

Baski, Remeta, and her best friend Corna sat at one side, laughing and talking. Beside them; Haydara, Corna’s mother, and her husband Gunther are trying to wipe the oil Raira, Corna’s little sister, poured on her clothes.

King Lucien has tried to hold Prince Nikolai repeatedly so he’ll stay in his seat on the round table, but the Prince isn’t having any of that. Instead, he has snuck out again with Princess Auroria, his cousin. He’s best of friends with the princess whose Declan’s first daughter.

In the end, King Lucien gave up trying to bring them back to Court, instead, he focused on his heavily pregnant Queen who’s smile hasn’t dimmed since the beginning of this feast. She placed her head to his shoulder, he only hugged her closer to him, kissing her hair tenderly.

“Ana couldn’t come?” She asked, her voice held a hint of sadness.

King Lucien was able to hear her through the loud clatters and happy music because she’s so close to him. He shook his head, “Unfortunately, Anarieveta couldn’t make it. One of her students fell sick, she had to stay back and take care of her. Merrily Raskin.”

“Aaah.” Queen Danika nodded her head. That explains everything.

Anarieveta didn’t joke when she made the decision of taking back her life. With the help of her best friend, Queen Danika, she got the best scholars in all the Eleven Kingdoms who educated her. They taught her, schooled her for two years until she passed all the exams, even the most difficult ones.

Anarieveta is one of the greatest scholars in all the eleven kingdoms now. She has a big school where she teaches little children both Slaves, Lowborn and Privileged.

Since the Slave’s law was amended four years ago, and a new Slave law was passed, the slaves all over the Kingdoms are no longer treated like animals without feelings, but as humans with their own lives and feelings. They are one with the Lowborn and the Privileged.

Her school is turning out to be the most desired, the most sort-after in all the Kingdoms. And when families from other Kingdoms kept bringing their children to her school from their Kingdoms so far away, she was forced to build boardinghouse inside her school to accommodate all.

She was supposed to be in the palace today, but one of her students has fallen sick, and she couldn’t leave the girl, not even to the hands of her qualified scholars and nannies she employed over the years.

She loves all her ‘students’ greatly—that cannot be disputed—but everyone close to her knows that she has a special love for Merrily Raskin and Aiden Raskin, the children of the powerful nobleman, Gedoni Raskin.

She denies it all the time, of course, but it is just hard NOT to see that love she has for those two children.

“Mama, when is my aunt Ana coming?” Prince Nikolai’s small voice dragged the Queen’s attention to her son. He stood in front of her with his blond curly hair which Sally packed and styled in the morning already disheveled because he wouldn’t stop running his hands on them.

“Your aunt couldn’t come today. She is very busy.” The Queen smiled at her son.

“Can I go and see her? I miss Aunt Ana.” He pouted, looking sad.

She runs her hand through his wavy mass, “Don’t worry, your Aunt Sally will take you to meet your Aunt Ana, one of these days.”

“Or my uncle Declan!?” He added. Declan who has become Queen Danika’s very good friend over the years.

“Of course. Or your Aunt Kamara.”

He grinned up at her then, “Will do. Thank you, mama!” Diving for her cheek, he gave her a big smooch. Then, he dove for his father’s cheek and did the same thing, before he ran out of Court again, his guards following close behind him.

King Lucien and his Queen laughed as they watched their hyperactive son. Just like his father when he was younger until the greatest tragedy befalls on him, robbed him of his smile and every single shining light he had, driving him straight to the arms of darkness and rage.

Until Danika, King Lucien thought with his heart filled with love. This woman in his arms whose the best thing that has ever happened to him.

His arms clutched her tighter. Already, he can’t wait for this party to be over so that he can take his wife and unborn child back to his bed again.

Together, he and Danika will be the best thing that ever happened to their children. No one will ever rob their children of their happiness like Cone did to him.

Funny, how the thought of that Monster Cone no longer fills him with rage or anything at all. In fact, he no longer regrets anything at all and the memories of his captivity were no longer a bad horror for him. Why?

Because if not for that, he wouldn’t have Danika now. He wouldn’t have his family now. Cone did him a favor.

He will not have his life any other way than it is now.

“I love you.” He whispered to Danika’s ear, his hand circling her waist.

She sighed and practically melted into him. “I love you too. So so much. Forever.”

THE END!
