The Forced Maiden For The Cursed Alpha King by Josephine Ivy

Chapter 210

Sabrina’s POV:

I’m so glad I have the truth now. And I’m even more glad that Caldan was lying.

The king led me to a resting area in the gardens. We sat on the benches, my hand held tightly in his as the evening breeze ruffled our hair and clothes.

“Your Majesty?” I said after a few minutes of peaceful silence.

“Yes my love?”

I wondered if I should ask this question at all or just let it go. I glanced at his face and his smile gives me the motivation to go ahead.

“It’s about your ex mate.” I said, still cautious. “Are you ready to tell me about her?”

He went silent for a while. Then he nodded. “I’m ready to tell you all about her.”

I scooted close to him, taking his hand into my lap. “I’m all ears.”

He started to speak. His voice was calm and mellow as he spoke about her. Katherine, was her name. He told me about how he was mated to her before the curse, and how his bite killed her.

“My goodness,” I gasped, my free hand flew to my heart in shock.

The way he spoke about her, he had been very in love with her. But there was a sharp bitterness in his tone, one that was hard to miss.

“She died because of me.” He said, angrily to himself. “It was all my fault.”

“It wasn’t”

He looked up at me, his eyes glowing subtly. “How can you say that? It was my bite that killed her. If I didn’t do that then…” He trailed off and sighed.

I moved closer to him, my shoulder pressing into his bicep. “Your majesty, you didn’t know any better. You didn’t know how the curse worked. You didn’t know what would happen. It was really painful, but it wasn’t your fault.”
