Her Cold-Hearted Alpha novel Chapter 96

ALEJANDRO

I didn’t even register Kiara’s gasp as I placed my arm around her waist , holding her close . I stepped back , placing distance between the Rogue King and I as I stared a t the woman before me . It was her … yet it wasn’t … I didn’t know what to think .

That day , coming to and seeing those body pieces spread across the floor . Her hand … Her ring … The guilt that I had killed her … I didn’t want to believe it … The woman I remembered as my mother was nothing like the woman before me .

She was … kind … sweet … loving … Rafael reminded me of her … a lot . Not only did I feel like my whole fucking life was a lie … But it meant that even before her ‘ death ‘ … She couldn’t have love me … or she wouldn’t have made me go through that shit … Through the pain and shock , I was feeling the stark truth that she had faked her death , and it hit me like a fucking hard slap across the face .

She had let me live with the guilt that I had murdered her . Because of that , I was afraid to be around those I cared for . I told myself I didn’t care … Shut everyone off … My heart was pounding and if it wasn’t for Kiara’s presence , I don’t know what I would have done .

All I know is if she hadn’t done that … I wouldn’t have become so fucking closed off … I had still killed the man who angered me but not the mother I loved . Or should I say the mother I thought I loved , i t seems I didn’t even know her … ” Alejandro …

” She spoke , a smile on her face . It made me sick . Despite her scent being familiar , I realised that I couldn’t smell her wolf . Did she sacrifice it for power ? Just the way she had done for the women a t Zidane’s pack ? ” Don’t stand there and fucking call my name as if nothing happened . ” I spat coldly , my aura fully unleashed as it filled the room like a blanket . I saw the flash on the rogue fucker’s face at the level of my power . Yeah , he may be strong , but I was fucking stronger . ” It was all for a cause , Alejandro …

You have become the man I wanted you to become . ” She said stepping closer . I saw Kiara’s aura flare around her . ” Stay away . ” She growled . The power emanating from her was fucking strong .

It was blazing around her , but unlike last time when I couldn’t even get close , it wasn’t affecting me . Sure , I felt the pressure , but it wasn’t fighting against m e . I watched the witch , not sure if I should call her Endora or Mathilde because I sure as fuck would never address her as Mom again … She lost that right the moment she played dead .

I guess I’ll go by her real fucking name … She paused , and I didn’t miss her tense at Kiara’s power . ” I am talking to my son , a son whose mate turned out to be most ideal … ” She said , her eyes travelling over Kiara . ” If you even for one fucking moment think that I’d ever side you , then you are fucking delusional . ” I spat . ” All these fucking years you’ve been alive … ” She smiled slightly .

” I had to do what was needed . ” She said , her eyes glinting . The story the witch had told us about her past flashed through my mind . She had always been a hybrid … but she kept it hidden . How ? Concealment spell ? Probably … ” What the fuck is your plan ? ” I growled . ” To restore the correct king .

” The rogue fucker spoke . I looked at him , feeling my stomach fucking twist . I knew where this shit was going … ” Alejandro … Meet your brother , Marcel . ” Kiara gasped as I looked at him . Yeah , I was kind of expecting that … He looked a lot like Dad … and Rafael . I don’t even know what to make of this shit … ” I don’t get what’s going on . ” The Rogue , or should I say , Marcel said . Endora smirked slightly .

Her eyes glowed and I felt the darkness growing . ” You need not think . ” She whispered , her voice seeming to come from every corner of the room . Kiara tensed as I watched Marcel’s eyes glaze over . So , he was partially under her fucking control . ” So , this is what you’ve done to your own fucking son ? Made him into a fucking puppet ?

” ” I’ve waited for far too long to let anything stand in my way . Alejandro … Together we can rule more than just this country . ” She said . Fucking psychotic bitch . Yeah , I knew once I was alone I’d feel this fucking betrayal , but right now … I was fucking pissed . ” Oh yeah ? What’s your fucking plan then ? I asked venomously .

KIARA I was shocked when Alejandro said ‘ Mom . ‘ The woman he had been beating himself up about killing was still alive , and worse , she was the one who was behind it all . I could sense his emotions . He was in turmoil , despite how his facial expression seemed just pissed off , I could sense the storm brewing within him . I held on to him , hoping that it helped somehow . Now looking at Marcel , I could see how much h e looked like Rafael .
