The Alpha King’s Possession

Chapter 68

  1. Something At Play

MORGANA

Azrael’s eyes widened and he stared at me shocked, before the familiar suspicion and anger

replaced it.

“Mated to one of those beasts… How father is probably turning in his grave.” He said, with disgust

I closed my eyes, trying to calm down. I had to, for our people and for Kian, who was doing this for me… For My kind.

“I am here to warn you to pick the right side, countless men will fall if you continue on this path. Azrael, if not for me, do it for father, whom we both loved.” I said, or so I hoped…

Focusing my mind on penetrating his, the familiar shrill sound filled my head before I managed to hear a glimpse of his thoughts.

‘Father… I wish he were here… he would have known what to do…’

I frowned, and continued. “For our people and for your son… make this kingdom something h e can be proud of. If you join hands with us, we are willing to give this kingdom the food and supplies it needs.” I said softly.

“Then why refuse all my mail! I have sent several letters! I let my pride go and pleaded with that monster to uphold his words!” Anger blazed in his eyes, and yet I couldn’t ignore his insult of Kian.

“He is far from a monster, Azrael, he is a king, one that you can only hope to be.” I said coldly,” As for your messages; we received one, with your seal saying you refuse the offer we sent and that you have joined hands with the fae!”

“That’s not even possible! Only I have access to-”

The door opened and Uncle Malachi stood there, his eyes wide.

“Morgana!” He said, his face softening and concern flooding his features as he ran over to me, pulling me into his arms tightly. “Thank the gods you are ok!” –

“Uncle…” I smiled, wrapping my arms around him tightly. His heart was pounding, and he kissed the top of my head several times. “I heard from the guards that the old western small gate lock was tampered with and there’s only one person I know that used and fiddled with that exit!”

My eyes widened. Uncle knew I used to sneak out? I was surprised, but I’m glad he never mentioned it to anyone.

“So you knew I used to sneak out?” I asked, smiling up at him.

He smiled warmly and nodded, cupping my face.

“I knew you were safe, so I saw no harm in it.” He said, stroking my hair. “How have you been child? I’m so sorry I didn’t come after you…”

“There was nothing you could have done if you had.” I said quietly.

He sighed, “Well, I’m glad you are here, is everything ok? With the war going on I am glad you are back home and safe, have you drank something? Rested?”
