The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 667

Chapter 667: THE KING’S DECISION

Hildegard rushed up to meet her best friend and now sister.

"Rose." she whispered as she bent down, slipping an arm around her trembling Queen.

Rose was soaked, shaking, and staring blankly at the corpses being lifted from the ground.

Hildegard helped her up carefully. "Rose... take it easy."

Rose jerked her arm away.

"Take it easy?" She said through a broken breath. "My pack is falling apart, Hildegard. Everything around me is burning, dying, collapsing and it is because of me."

Hildegard said nothing.

There was nothing she could say.

Rose inhaled sharply, dragging a shaking hand across her wet face.

Then she straightened her spine.

The Queen resurfaced through the grief.

"Gather their bodies," she ordered the wolves. Her voice trembled, but it carried. "Prepare them for a proper funeral. And alert their families... tell them I will speak to them myself."

The Lycans bowed immediately and carried out her command.

"I can’t believe he did this." Rose shook her head in disbelief. "I truly can’t believe this. He was never like this. I changed a good person. I changed him the moment I accused him now look what I have brought on us."

Hildegard stepped closer. "Rose you can not blame yourself."

"But I have to." Rose said sadly. "Moreover you warned me. Warned me against accusing him. But I was so drunk with rage and anger that I did. Listened to Cherry and now well.... And now look where it has brought me."

"Well I can tell you for free that Jasmine isn’t dead." Hildegard said. "I don’t think he has her either. If he did, then he wouldn’t have even bothered killing the wolves would he?"

Rose had to admit that was true.

"I just truly hope you are-

But before she could finish, the guards suddenly parted.

A figure walked into the courtyard.

His steps were heavy.

His eyes red.

His aura violent.

Xaden.

XADEN’S POV

He had returned.

Xaden had been with the search parties looking for Jasmine from last night.

He has searched for her non stop.

Lucky enough for him, Erik had let Kirk come along.

Kire was the only one who had seemed to have Jasmine’s scent.

Jasmine being an unshifted, Xaden couldn’t catch her scent but for Kire.

He could smell her out anywhere.

Kire had followed them everywhere and unfortunately nothing had come up.

He was angry.

Angry to discover that Jasmine was the grand daughter to the Queen.

The true heir to the throne.

If this was true then that meant Bale’s servant had been Jasmine’s mother and the missing princess.

And then Cherry being evil.

The King sleeping with his sister in law.

Coral being the one who pushed Scarlett.

It was a messy situation.

And he knew that he didn’t want Jasmine here.

He wanted to find her and take her home.

He loved her.

She was the air he breathed and she was his world.

He couldn’t imagine her staying here.

He had searched and searched but not finding her, broke him.

He looked at the bodies, at the water on the stones, at Rose standing drenched and hollow eyed.

His jaw tightened.

"What happened?" he demanded, voice strained. "Who killed them?"

One of the wolves explained briefly.

The trespass.

The siren king.

The deaths.
