Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 40: The King’s Love 

Warren was playing the part of the king! 

I could hardly believe what I was seeing, and I was certain I was gawking at him. 

“Ah, I’m glad you’re here,” he said as he turned and walked toward me. His hands were folded behind his back, and he looked quite regal and important, much like he did in real life, but with an air of arrogance about him I’d never seen with Warren before. 

“I brought you your favorite dessert,” I purred, trying to sound, um, seductive, I guess? That was hard for me. 

“Put it down,” he said. “That’s kind of you, but I’m afraid I’m not in the mood for dessert.” 

I set the cake down on a side table, along with the two plates and two forks I’d managed to bring along with me. I could tell by his expression that whatever it was he was going to say to me, I wasn’t going to like it. “What’s wrong?” 

I asked him. 

I hadn’t talked to him about the other woman yet, but as he walked toward me, the graveness of his expression told me he was going to reveal his decision to me. I was so nervous, my hands were shaking. 

It was strange. I could tell that those emotions were not mine, yet, I was still controlled by them. On one hand, I knew this was all just an illusion that the Moonlit Crystal created, on the other hand, it was so real that I almost  thought I was her, the king’s mistress. 

I bet without knowing their own identities, Brook, Jake and even Warren would truly think they were the people from  this world. 

He didn’t answer me, so with my nerves getting the best of me, I continued to speak. “I took a lot of time making this cake for you, Your Majesty.” 

He shook his head. “You didn’t need to go to any trouble for me. I’ve appreciated how well you’ve treated me these past three years, how you’ve always been there for me, but that  time has ended now.” 

“What?” My voice trembled with emotion as I spoke. “You can’t be serious?” 

“I’m afraid so. It seems… I don’t love you after all. I am in love with someone else, and I plan to marry her. Again, I thank you for your service, but that’s in the past now, and I will move forward with my fiancée, the love of my life.” 

I said quickly, trying my best to think of a way to salvage the situation. “Even if you love someone more, I can still be of service to you. I can still accompany you. The people in the castle know and respect me. They will continue to do so. I am willing to

gracefully but seductively. She paused beside him, placing her hand on his chest and leaning forward to kiss him on the cheek, leaving a faint smear of red lipstick in her wake. “Hello, my handsome King,” she said, her voice just as annoying now as it had been before we got sucked into this place.
