Chapter 36: XXXVI
Letting his fingers run on the only scarring wound he had on his body, he frowned. This scarring wound was evidence that the oracle was right.
She was real. He believed part of the prophecy. He heard of her unrivaled beauty and he clearly won't mind finding such a beautiful woman and keeping her as his.
And he actually searched for her for a while before giving up. He gave up when he did not find her after ten years.
He will have to claim her fully as his. She must have being brain washed by those humans to the point where she tried to kill her one and only mate.
He was further anger when he remembered the man who took her away.
His human and arrogant self was angry that the man had not let her die but his wolf has being scolding him for thinking that way.
His pride felt hurt, firstly by getting stabbed by his mate and secondly by watching another man steals his woman away. Isn't that enough to turn an angel into a demon and he was no angel?
According to his wolf and all those who cared much about mates, he will never find peace if she died. He likes women and had a lot of women. What will the death of only one woman do to him?
The more he thought about it, the more he got angry.
He was angry with the moon goddess and he was angry that the only woman his wolf accepted as his and not his human part filled with lustful desires was a woman who attempted killing the first time she met him.
For the first time in his life, he actually thought his life was very pitiful.
There was a soft knock on the door. From the rhythm, he could easily guess correctly who it was before even using his sense of smell to confirm.
He was not in the mood of talking to anyone after having the dream he had but when the person persisted, he was forced to let in.
The beautiful blonde outside the door received a mind-linked message from her alpha and could not help but blush as she pushed the door open and walked in swinging her waist left and right.
She believed she was the first person the king was willing to talk to since he got stabbed.
She frowned. She was definitely going kill that bitch the moment she comes across her for almost taking her man from her.
She smiled when she felt the Alpha King's gaze on her with a light shade of pink tinting the smooth skin of her cheeks.
"Your majesty, you scared us all," she said suggestively. She bit her lips and paused for a few seconds when she realized what she just said.
The king ignored what she said as he looked at her sexy body that was wrapped tightly and partially in a beautiful purple linen dress.
He raised his head and looked at her with his gaze clearly showing his thoughts of ripping the clothes off her.
What he needed at this moment might be a distraction and he decided to welcome that distraction in with open hands.
The lady seeing his acceptance felt a warm feeling of joy flood her mind. She bit her lower lips with her gaze very heated due to the stare she received from him.
She was thanking the goddess for such mercy as she crawled from the edge of the large bed to where he laid waiting for her dominantly watching her.
She really thought of her life as one of the Alpha's women will come to end after he meets his rumored mate but she was wrong or maybe lucky.
The look she saw in his eyes, made her heart leap in joy. She has never gotten such a look from him in the past. This had to be a sign of progress, right? Perhaps she will become the Alpha's sole woman soon.
The Alpha did not care about what was on the mind of the woman who was still crawling to him with a submissive but sexy and heated gaze him.
He had long told himself that he will not have a woman take control of his life which was against what the oracle said.
He wondered why he did not receive the prophecy himself. Although he had no right to be, he was actually angry with the goddess for making such plan about his life without telling him in person.
He sudden sat up and moved to the woman who was yet to get close to him and held her hair in a strong and dominant grip.
He lifted her head to meet his gaze and he could clearly see her being happy with the way he treated her.
This was definitely better than getting a gaze of murder intent from a woman who should be subject to him.
Using his free hand, he ran the back of his hand from her cheeks to her white neck as he repeatedly told himself that the woman before him might not be the woman his wolf was craving for but she was still a woman.

It has been three days since she felt weak and that was the day she woke with her teacher casting spells on her.
She was on her way back to the palace in the capital and this was the last place she wanted to be considering her failed mission.
This journey was slow and she did not like it at all since she had to spend hours with the Duke.
He claimed that he was scared that she was going to run away so he had to watch her personally.
She almost did not have any personal or alone time. She was displeased with the Duke's dominant attitude as though she was a lowly and calm wife of his.
She was definitely not going to move along with him to wherever he lived as his wife with his arrogant mother who she got a chance to see once during a ball and his sisters.
