The Alpha King’s Possession

48. Plans & Preparations

MORGANA

Last night had been magical. Although we had simply kissed a little more, showered and just got into bed, there was something about coming clean and being honest. Knowing that he hadn’t been behind my father’s death had lifted the weight within me. It meant I was willing t o give in to these emotions…

My core still tingled when I remembered taking his dick in my mouth. I wouldn’t mind waking him up like that every morning. There was something so sexy about looking at that view of pure ecstasy on his face. Kian was an emotionless, stoic person, so whenever I got to see that side. He was everything one could want and more, and despite his arrogant nature, h e cared for me. No, loved me.

Today I got dressed in black pants and a floral green strapless satin wrap top that showed off the top of my breasts. My hair was in a high pony, and I wore a few delicate necklaces, dangly earnings, a few bracelets and rings. I wouldn’t deny I loved the way he couldn’t stop looking at me, that struggle with his self-control when I bent down to slip my heels on.

I felt.. happy, and as if I belonged here. I guess I did, with Kian. I wasn’t a fool to deny that I just hoped we could find a solution to this war.

We didn’t talk about Orrian again, but he was willing to reach out to them. I smiled just thinking of the way he got all possessive. Was it wrong that I found it amusing?

It was early morning and we were in his office with his four Deltas and Beta. Each one seemed to be unsure of what to make of me as Oliver closed the door slowly, his green eyes fixed on me, almost as if he didn’t trust me.

I was perched on the arm of Kian’s chair. I frowned, trying to read their minds.

‘After what we found… is Kian actually trusting her?’ Luca was thinking.

‘She’s in cahoots with someone… This is weird…’ Ajax was thinking.

‘She’s dangerous, I don’t trust her.’ Corbin’s thoughts.

I frowned, looking at Kian sharply.

What had they found?

“So do we have a plan?” Ajax asked, his gaze once again going to me.

1 remained passive, thinking I would let Kian tell them what was needed.

“There’s a few things that we need to discuss, and we will start with the fact that Morgana has been in touch with Cain, who told her I killed the previous vampire king and hence made her want revenge.” Kian said quietly, his voice cold and emotionless.

All his men looked shocked at that. I felt a little stupid, thinking their reaction was enough to make it clear that Kian had nothing to do with that.

“Cain… SO…” Luca looked at Kian and I knew they were mind linking.

“He left the poison in one of the pillars outside, along with blood.” Kian said icily. Although he wasn’t holding me responsible, I knew the fact that Cain had tried to get me was still causing him anger.

“Then why have we not arrested him?” Corbin asked, running a hand through his hair, his eyes flashing

“We’re going to keep an eye on him, and this time I mean a proper one. I want to know what else he’s fucking up to, I won’t get him to talk no matter how much I fucking torture him. I feel he’s planning more.” Kian said.
