The Alpha King's Heart
The Alpha King’s Heart – Chapter 105

“Baby, I don’t want to,” I complained, Wyatt was taking me outside to the back forest. There was no cloud in the sky and the moon was full.

“Can you feel that!” he was happy, pointing at the moon.

“Yeah yeah, I love the power the moon brings us,” I yawned, rubbing my eyes.

“Run with me tonight,” he said, pulling me closer to him by my waist.

‘Run,’ I heard Rolf’s excited voice in my head. I caressed his beard and got on my toes to k**s him.

“Fine,”

I conceded, pulling the top I was wearing over my head and throwing it to the ground. His eyes lingered on my bare chest and he caressed my arms. I took off my shorts and shoes. I closed my eyes, trying to feel every vibration beneath my feet and I smiled as I connected with nature. I could feel every vibration and the tiniest of animals around the forest.

“Why do you insist on running when I beat you every time,” I said. The last time we went for a run, I left him by a lot. My speed was insane.

“Maybe today is my lucky day,” he shrugged, taking off his shorts along with his boxers. I caressed his huge shaft and he closed his eyes, enjoying my touch, however, I stopped just as he was beginning to get excited and he scowled.

“You brought me out here for a run,” I smirked, “Unless you change your mind,”

“FINE,” he pouted like a child.

I shifted into my wolf and so did my mate, his wolf was tall and dominating, and being king made it bigger than mine by a few inches. He licked my face and I turned my head away.

‘Timid?’ his voice resounded in my head. I giggled and splinted away, however, I didn’t get far as I was tackled to the ground by Wyatt. He was licking my face again.

‘Wyatt,’ I drawled his name, biting him.

We run over logs and was tackling each other playfully to the ground. We recreated under the moon for a long time and enjoyed ourselves. Everything was tranquil and I could feel a higher power over us. The moon’s blessing.

I stood up abruptly when I spotted a rabbit in the distance and followed it. I chased after it, trying to play but it was scared, I could hear its pounding heartbeat.

‘Boo!’

I felt Wyatt next to me, and he growled at the poor animal, making it run into the tree. I growled at him and he laughed. The moon was at its highest when we decided to race to the furthest mountain and like last time, I won.

‘I won!’ I jumped up and down,

‘Not my night,’ he grumbled, we stayed on top of the mountain, relishing the night and each other.

Later after our time in the woods, we went back to the house where we took a steamy shower together.

I didn’t spend five minutes in bed when my stomach growled.

“Want a sandwich babe?” I asked, he was half asleep already.

“Hmm,” he hummed. I laughed and got out of bed, I went to the kitchen as I didn’t want to wake anyone at this late hour. I made a sandwich and ate it silently, my mind going to Azriel, I had not seen him since I spoke to him the other morning.

As I went back to my room, I took a detour to his wing and opened the door, he wasn’t there though but I saw a painting that took my breath away. It was the woman from his last painting, I couldn’t see her face properly but in her hands was something; a small heart. The more I looked at the painting, the more the woman became familiar, I was the woman in his picture and the heart was his. I hated that I broke his heart because he meant so much to me but I was in love with Wyatt.

I sighed and stood up to leave but found Faye at the door.

“Adira,” she seemed surprised but it was soon gone and she smiled… Sadly at me. I wondered why. She stepped forward and exhaled, running a hand through her hair.

“He loves you,” she said. I chuckled, feigning oblivion. I didn’t want this information reaching Wyatt, already the brothers didn’t like each other.

“Wyatt knows too… We all do,” her voice was quiet. I couldn’t talk, no words escaped my lips for a few minutes.

“I didn’t mean for it to happen,”

“I know,” her voice was strangled and when I looked at her, tears rolled down her face. She wiped the immediately but they kept coming.

“I’m sorry,” she apologized, it was unlike her to be so vulnerable. I crouched down next to her and wiped her tears. I wanted to take away her pain and suffering.

“Faye, I’m sorry too,”

“Why not me,” she cried, ” I’m beautiful, sexy, I try to be kind like you and I care for him, I’ve always shown him that but he never saw me as the woman he could love yet he showed you the moment he saw you, he chose you,”

Faye has loved Azriel for a long time, how was Azriel so blind to her affections? I pulled her into an embrace and she held me tightly. She cried as long as she wanted and when she was done, we stood up. Her eyes were puffy and red, I felt bad for her, everyone deserved to be with the one they loved.

“What should I do?” she asked.

“Tell him how you feel,”

“He’ll just mock me and he didn’t take me seriously,”

We went back to the kitchen where I made us a hot beverage. We were silent for a while before she spoke.

“You have it so easy,” Faye was looking at me.

“What do you mean?”

“You have no idea how many alphas want you, they praise you and are willing to burn for you yet you don’t see them, such a blessed girl,” she smiled.

“I didn’t know that,”

“It’s not just about your beauty, or power, it’s more. Your gentleness, the way you interact, etc,” she sighed, taking another sip of her tea. Indeed, some alphas have been sending me flowers and gifts but I didn’t know it could be that. They must respect their king enough not to actively pursue me even though I have no mark. Faye and I stayed a while longer, talking and she felt better. She took one of the guest’s bedrooms and slept in there for the night and I went back to my room, cuddled up next to Wyatt. Tomorrow was going to be a long day, it is my Luna ceremony.
