Marked By The Mad King Alpha (Phoebe and Perry) novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Chapter 203 Into the Dungeon

Perry’s POV

If only I wasn’t such an arrogant bastard, Phoebe would be carrying my child like Viola carried hers.

This mess was entirely my doing.

I alone bore the blame for this disaster, and I was the one who’d dragged my mate through hell.

It might not seem like a crisis now, but I knew damn well it would explode later. This was a bomb with a lit fuse, just waiting to detonate.

I studied Phoebe’s sleeping face. She looked peaceful and stunning, but I had no idea how much longer I could preserve that tranquility. If only I could fix this... if only I knew how to repair what I’d shattered.

"I’m sorry, love." I bent down and claimed her lips. "I’ll do anything for you, even if it makes you despise me. I’ll do whatever’s needed to protect your peace." I deepened the kiss. Even if it meant torching my entire kingdom, I’d do it without hesitation. I’d burn it all down for her.

Phoebe remained blissfully unaware of my thoughts, sleeping deeply. She felt my kiss but was too drowsy to respond.

Phoebe’s POV

In my dream, the white wolf appeared again.

The magnificent creature stood on the far side of the river, watching me. It was breathtaking and regal—I longed to run my fingers through its silky fur once more.

But when I tried to approach, the white wolf retreated, and I couldn’t cross the river.

When I woke the next morning, the dream had already faded as I learned about Perry’s scheme to draw Reginald out.

"Are you sure that’s our best move?" I asked cautiously, studying Perry with wariness. I despised Viola, and when she’d come begging for help with her mother, I’d rejected her outstretched hand.

What happened in the past was done. I refused to dwell on it. I didn’t want Viola harmed either, and despite Tiara’s past cruelty toward me, I didn’t wish her dead.

But I wanted no part of their drama.

Besides, Viola was pregnant now. I couldn’t bear the thought of anything happening to her or her baby.

"Are you angry because I spared your stepmother’s life?" Perry moved closer, settling beside me and placing a reassuring hand on my back. "Do you want her executed? I can arrange it."
