The Alpha King’s Heart: The King’s Mate
: Chapter 62

The first thing I did when I woke up was go to Azriel’s room. I pushed the door opened and yelped when I saw him in only his boxers.

‘Sorry,’ I said, turning around to look away but I had already seen and now, the perfect muscular image of his body will be forever imprinted in my mind.

‘It’s almost 3 pm, how do you sleep so much,’ he said, I debated turning around but did, he was now clothed. I let out a puff of relief.

‘I went out with Ambrose last night,’ I informed him and he raised an eyebrow at me.

‘Wyatt was not happy,’

‘Thought so,’ I sighed. He was rummaging through a drawer. He pulled out odd-looking cigarettes with a satisfied expression on his face. He offered me one and I gave him a disgusted face,

‘Let’s not be all high and mighty,’ he said, pulling a lighter to light it but he stopped.

‘I’ll do this outside,’ he cleared his throat. I followed suit, I didn’t want to be alone as I was avoiding Wyatt and his inner circle so I was stuck with him.

‘Are you following me?’ Azriel asked in a cold tone when we reached the staircase. I didn’t know what to say or do other than;

‘I’d like a smoke too,’ his face instantly looked amused;

‘You don’t smoke,’

‘I have once and Nova gave me some of hers last night,’ I said.

‘I see you met Ambrose’s whole cruel. I didn’t know they were your kind of people,’ he said, starting to walk again.

‘What do you mean by that?’ We barely took a few steps when we heard voices. I stopped and he stared at me.

‘Still want a smoke?’

‘Um. yes,’

I followed him but was greeted by Aspen ‘ Hello, Birdie?’ I didn’t want to look at them but did with a smile tight smile. My eyes immediately found my mate, he was glaring at his brother. I swallowed before speaking to Aspen.

‘Good afternoon, Beta,’ I said in a soft voice.

‘Where to?’ Jett asked, looking at Azriel. The Alpha only showed him the cigarettes in his hand and Faye smiled, getting to her feet.

‘Weed!’She cheered. Azriel and Faye went outside and I followed them, ignoring my mate’s unimpressive gaze. My heart was thumping in my chest and I only exhaled when the cool outside air hit my body.

A day later, we were back at the estate as Wyatt insisted we left the Marsh together if he were to give me the space I desired from him. It was good to be home and I missed everyone here. I didn’t see Wyatt the next few days nor did he call me, however, he called Jerico to find out how I was doing.

The next couple of days, I felt fatigued and was looking through the vast library for Alpha females, however, there wasn’t much about them.

‘Ma’am,’ I heard Chloe, my maid call me.

‘ I’m in here,’ I answered softly, still looking through the book I was reading. She bowed once she reached me and looked at the peculiar dark brown book in hand.

‘Is that for me?’ I asked, reading the note that came with it. It was from Azriel.

‘Thank you,’ I said, collecting it from her hands.

‘I’ll bring you some tea, my lady,’ she said and I nodded. In about an hour, I was done reading my book, and what I read had me ashen.

It said; long ago, Alpha females were sort after by different people for their abilities. 30 decades ago lived a female Alpha, Katherine Dawn. She was said to be beautiful, and powerful as a result, she was subjected to a lot of abuse from being kidnapped, drugged, raped, and in constant danger. Her brother sold her to a sorcery at one point but she managed to kill her captors.

‘No one knows who you are so we are safe,’ Kira murmured. For now, only Azriel knew the truth.

‘Yes, we can trust him.’ I said.

‘how are you so sure,’

‘I can feel it, I can read his aura,’

Something popped into my mind immediately, my parents always said I was able to read auras because I was born on a blood moon but it was because I was an Alpha female! Now I felt dumb.

I left the library and got ready for dinner, I sighed as I looked at the other end of the empty table. Dinner times were dreadful and I was always alone lately, I lost my appetite and went to my back to the suite, groaning and tossing on the bed.

There was a knock on my door and I sat straight before answering. Two servants; Chloe and Yang entered the room. Yang was carrying a silver plate with an envelope on it. I got it and opened it; an invitation to the senate party at the palace.
