The Alpha King’s Possession

28. The Pain Of The Bond

MORGANA

Night had fallen and I was back in his bedroom. He was nowhere around, after Cain had gone I had checked for the niche in the pillar, and sure enough, there inside was four rather large vials of blood. I drank them quickly, placing the empty bottles back there. If Kian gave me blood tonight, then I would drink as much as I could, I needed to get stronger. Cain was right; I needed to be sufficient and be at my best.

I was in bed now, but he never came. I stared at the ceiling, trying to sleep fruitlessly. Maybe I could do some snooping? I was alone after all… This was Kian’s room, surely there must be something about him here…

I pushed the sheets away and got out of bed. Turning the lamp on, I looked around the room. I can’t believe I never bothered to snoop before. The bookshelves caught my attention. Books, files, notebooks, journals…

Oh, Morgana, you had an entire wall with information. I walked over to it, silently running my eyes along the shelf.

The Dragon’s Fire… The Song Of Doom…

My heart skipped a beat as I realised there were many fiction books here.

Did he actually read these? One would think he only studied war and battle tactics with his lack of personality!

I let my fingers run over the spines of the books.

His Forbidden Love

The title caught my attention, and I smiled, taking it off the shelf. I skimmed through it, so the king actually read love stories… I smirked, amused, well he surely must believe love is fiction because he sure doesn’t have any emotions.

I placed it aside and returned to the shelves, noticing the journals that sat on the highest shelf. Well, too bad I can reach, I wasn’t short like his dumb Sage… I tiptoed, straining to reach them, using my powers to pull them towards me. I smirked as I looked down at the first one, frowning when I realised it was locked.

Really?

I took a few more off, displeased when I realised each one was locked.

Great.

I peered around the sides but the only thing on the leather covers were dates. Last year… Four years ago… Did the Alpha actually keep a journal? I replaced them thinking I’d look for a key

another time, surely it was around here somewhere.

I heard a distant door shut and quickly replaced the books, save the love story. I hurriedly went over to the bed, sitting down pretending to read but no one came.
