Protect Me Alpha King novel Chapter 34

I looked up and saw it wasn’t Alpha Wade from Haverstone Pack, but the alpha king himself. To make my vision clearer, I wiped the tears from my eyes and realized it was Alpha King Maxxwell of this kingdom!

Horror swallowed me whole as my gaze darted to his hand. Bite marks. It was none other than mine! Those tiny holes and droplets of blood glared back at me.

How did I manage to bite him? I thought he was Alpha Wade.

I scurried away from him, scared of what he might do to me after biting him.

And he just let me step back, allowing me to gather my thoughts and emotions.

He laid still as if he was testing me if I would run away from him or not.

After a couple of minutes, I finally dared to speak and said, “Y-Your Majesty? D-did I bite you as if you are some kind of meat barbecue stick?”

“In flesh and blood,” he said, weariness started to settle down and rested on his shoulders. "And you licked my blood as if you were a vampire."

I covered my mouth as my mind tried to digest what he just said.

I stared at the ceiling. “Oh, Moon Goddess.” My eyes went back to him. “What have I done, Your Majesty?”

“We had a heated exchange of words. And you suddenly got scared as if I was the devil incarnate and clawed and bit me.”

Gulping, I looked nervously at his hands and kept looking at them to verify if I was dreaming or not.

I bowed my head until my forehead reached the floor. “Forgive me, Your Majesty. I did not know it was you.”

“Rise. I want to see your eyes when I talk to you. Not your wild hair that looked like a burning flame.”

Not wanting to anger him, I rose and looked at him in his eyes.

He folded his arms in front of his chest. “You mentioned Wade.”

My heart jumped and my hands went cold. The alpha king's eyes caught my reaction before I had the chance to hide it away using my smile. Which turned into a wince in the end.

Sensing it was futile to hide it away from him, I said, “He was my previous alpha before Alpha Erik inherited the position from his father.”

I caught him trying to control the sharpening of his claws I did not understand why he acted that way. I never thought he would associate himself with his servants.

“What did he do to you?”

“N-nothing, Your Majesty. It was all in the past.”

“Which you still carried the trauma. He is no longer your alpha, so why are you trying to defend him?”

“It’s not that I am trying to defend him, Your Majesty,” I muttered trying to reason with him. Talking about Alpha Wade felt like he could still hear every word I breathe against him and he would come here and punish me even though I knew for myself the alpha king carried much more power compared to him.

However...the pain and terror from the past kept haunting me like a bitch, not allowing me to forget him. As if it had a mind of its own, my consciousness wanted to refresh them if someone triggered the memory just like what had happened earlier when the alpha king punched the wall.

My gaze shifted to the hole beside me and gulped.

Did he have plans of hitting me or not? It was only a few inches from me and if he happened to hit me, I would long be unconscious now. The hit from an alpha king, according to the servants, will make you unconscious for a couple of hours.

I wondered if he was the type to hit a woman. And if he did, he would be the most asshole werewolf in this kingdom regardless if he was the alpha king. I was never fond of males who hit women.

He saw me looking at the wall, guilt flashed in his eyes before it disappeared. Or was I only imagining things?

“The servants will fix that.”
