Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 387

Chapter 45: The King’s Bride Is… 

After all of that running through the woods, trying to get away from the beasts that had been chasing us, both Warren and I were exhausted. Theo didn’t seem tired at all. He led the way for us back to the palace, where Sophia had been waiting for us there. 

The moment we came into view, Sophia came running over to us, already crying and carrying on, blubbering all over Warren. 

“There you are, my darling! My King! I was so unbelievably worried about you! I thought I had lost you forever!” She flung herself into his arms and began to cry even harder. 

It wasn’t good for his hurt leg for him to be standing there, supporting her and himself. Since we’d stopped running, his injury had seemed to be healing somewhat, but now, it made me worried that he’d be hurt all over again. 

Some of her guards had come out with her. I turned to one of them and said, in my most authoritative voice, “Fetch a healer for the king.” 

The guard looked at me like he wasn’t sure whether or not he should do what I said. 

“Now.” I told him, and he jumped into action. 

Theo arched an eyebrow at me, clearly surprised to see me take control of the situation. He also had a sour expression the entire time we’d been walking back. I had no idea why. 

Warren was still leaning on me so that I could help him walk. Nothing else was happening between us. Of that, I was certain. So when Warren addressed Sophia by saying, “We need to talk about this wedding,” my ears perked up immediately. 

What was going on? 

He sounded like he was about to give her bad news. 

She didn’t hear it that way. “Oh, don’t worry! I have been working on things while you were gone, even though my roses were trampled!” She gestured toward the destroyed flower garden nearby, but Theo simply folded his arms across his chest, uncaring. 

Keeping her at arm’s length, Warren began, “I’ve had plenty of time while I was gone to think about this situation, and I‘m afraid I’ve made a grave mistake.” 

Suddenly, Sophia was starting to get it. Her face blanched and she stammered, “Wh–what?” 

“I have only been reunited with you a short amount of time, and even when we were together a long time ago, it was a few months. But I’ve been with Ciana for years. Just now, in the cave and the forest, when I was injured, when we were being chased, she proved herself to me. She helped me to survive out there. I can’t just forget about that.” 

Sophia’s eyes turned on me, and she glared in anger. “Are you saying you’d rather marry this… tramp than me?” 

“Please, don’t use such foul language to describe the woman I love. I know it’s hard for you to understand, but you and I have been apart for many years, and people change. I realized I cannot hurt Ciana this way.”
