The Alpha King’s Possession

45. 4 A Truth Under The Setting Sun

MORGANA

Guilt was eating up at me, I had almost poisoned him… I could have killed him… Even if I had backed out at the last minute, it didn’t change the fact that I had tried.

I ran my fingers over the mark that now bound me to him, a mark that guaranteed how serious he was about me. If he had wanted, he could have left me to die and he would have been free of me.

I still remember the panic and fear in his voice as he rushed me from the hall, the concern in his eyes when I woke up. With the bond now connecting us, I had felt the emotions from him… Kian may even love me… No… I was sure he did… When I drank his blood, those intense emotions…

I placed my head in my hands, feeling exhausted, and not only physically.

I needed to tell him, even if he got angry… We needed to talk and I really needed to ask him about my father too. These emotions inside of me… I don’t know how long I could fight them for, I just needed some clarity before it was too late…

With renewed resolve, I decided to talk to him when he returned today. Getting up, I took a shower and decided to make myself look a little presentable. I looked like death itself, and that’s saying something for a vampire.

After showering, I spent a good twenty minutes selecting out the perfect outfit. I don’t know why I wanted to make an effort but… maybe if he got too angry, I could calm him down with m y charm.

Yes, that was the reason. It had nothing to do with how I loved the way he looked at me, as if I was a treat he wanted to devour… After slipping on some red lace lingerie, I chose a chiffon

ivory blouse that was slightly sheer, showing off my bright bra underneath. With the tops dipping neckline that revealed an ample amount of cleavage, it looked rather sexy. I then chose a red suede pencil skirt that fell mid-thigh, finishing off with a pair of black stilettos.

Once my hair was dry, I decided to style it in a little quiff that I pinned back, leaving a few strands out to frame my face and the rest falling down my back nicely. I then got to my makeup, settling for a winged black liner and red lips. Applying some shimmer to highlight m

y face and a touch of blush to give me some life, I was almost done. Finally picking out some earrings and a dangly necklace that fell between my breasts, I was satisfied with how I looked.

My gaze fell to the ring that Kian had given me, a ring of a promise… I was going to tell him no matter what.

Noon had come and gone, but apart from the doctor and a few omegas to give me food, Kian hadn’t come. Even the guard who was in the hall simply said he was busy.

It was now sunset and I was beginning to worry, I felt anxious in the pit of my stomach. Where was he? And how come he didn’t even come to check up on me? Sure he didn’t need to but… did something happen?

I had felt restless, even going for a walk outside, but I felt uneasy and had returned. Instead pacing around the large halls, trying to occupy myself by looking at the paintings on the wall. I was now down the hall on the first floor at the large balcony, staring out at the setting sun when I heard footsteps. Kian’s familiar scent reached me. I turned, my heart pounding despite trying to remain calm, remembering our moment from earlier before he had left.

He stopped when he saw me and his eyes trailed over me, darkening as he drank in my appearance.

didn’t know what to do with my hands. So instead, I placed them on the balcony behind me, crossing my legs as I perched on the edge. But the moment Kian’s gaze went to m y breasts and the hunger filled his eyes, my stomach knotted. He walked towards me, like a predator coming
