Rejection To The Alpha King's Daughter [Rejection Series]

Confession of the Heart

The area was quiet as I hold the heart of Alexander in my hand. Who knew that killing the man that needed to be stopped felt so numbing. Alexander was never a good king, nor a good father. Hell he was a horrible man that I wished would just join the Moon Goddess many times. But for most of my life he still raised me.

"You know it needed to be done." Albot comes up behind me, draping his coat over my cold body and taking the heart from my hand. He slowly walks over to Alexander who's dead body still had eyes wide open, before placing his dead heart beside the wolf and closing his eyes.

"Lets go get you cleaned up." He whispers as he stands and wraps me in his arms for a hug before carefully picking me up princess style. I was numb from today's events. Numb and emotionless. All this time I was beaten and today I finally beat the big bad wolves who hurt me.

"Crysta it'll be okay. You did what you had to do." His lips press against my temple before tucking my body closer to his. I could feel the steady rhythm of his heart beat under my hand, soothing me gently while I close my eyes. I could smell the change in the air as we enter into the wide double doors of the palace. The scents of pine cleaner and floor quickly flood my senses and I turn my face to breath in Albot's unique sense.

"This palace smells horrible." He chuckles out and I couldn't help but agree. I hated the smell the omegas used to clean this place. So artificial and fake. In our pack we had switched to natural cleaning products and always kept the windows open to allow the scent from the woods in. This was something I planned to change in the comming days here in the palace.

"I guess this means I'm Queen now." I whisper out almost in a daze. I couldn't wrap my head around this fact just yet. I became used to leading a pack when I created Pack Astraea but now not only would I lead the Royal pack, I would lead the werewolf nation.

"All you need now is your mate." Albots words reach my ears and I couldn't help but look up and into his eyes. What I saw made my heart flutter. Albot held pain, sadness, hope and love. All those I could feel were directed at me.

He was right.

I wanted a mate so badly. Someone meant for me and me only as I rule with that wolf at my side. A team. Like how Albot and I were.

"Have you decided to forgive him? Narin that is?" Did I want to forgive Narin? Yes I did. But he could never be my mate ever and I would never allow him to rule with me. But the hurt in Albot's voice that he tried to hide had my heart clenching. If I had to choose I would pick Albot. I felt my friend stop as he held me closer, tension in his body and I knew he was waiting for an answer.

"Albot. I can forgive him, forgive Narin." I start off, my hand slowly going to his hair to twirl a strand slowly. My words had Albot tensing even more. I could feel the heart break radiating from him and couldn't help the small whimper that escaped my throat.

"I can forgive him and keep him a warrior or give him a chance to find a new pack. But I would never accept him as a mate. I hope that when the bond breaks it would be you that the Geminie's mom pairs me with next." All tension in Albot's body releases as his lips crush into mine, a growl of approval and possesion coming from both our lips as I kiss him back with the same ammount of passion. Albot was my rock for years when I became a rogue. He was the beta I needed but now I needed him to be more. Just like he needed me to be more.

We needed each other.

Slowly we pull away, his head resting on mine as he tucks me in closer to his chest. I couldn't help the shit-eating grin that covered my face and giggles that escaped. I was truly happy.

"Lets go get cleaned up and then we can go to the pack infirmary and talk to Narin. Maybe then he could explain to you why he did what he did and you can end the bonde." Albot whispers before continuing his way down the halls of the palace.
