Mated To Alpha Gregory

Lilith’s POV;

Immediately after Ben left my room, I walked out and entered the room just before mine.

She spun around quickly upon hearing the sound of the door opening.

“Cassandra.”

“Why did you bring me here?”

“Why? Do you prefer I throw you in an actual cell?” I walked towards the bed and sat there.

Before she left, the goddess had shown me a vision of Cassandra coming here, and just before I sat down, I had told the maids quietly that the guards should not throw her in the dungeon, but instead in the room next door.

“You bitch!”

I chuckled. I wasn’t stupid enough to keep her in the dungeon and create chaos.

“This is your last chance, Cass. You’d better be careful.” I stood up from the bed and walked to the door, leaving her mouth hanging open.

As soon as I got to my room, I halted in my tracks upon seeing someone whose back was turned to me.

The redhead looked familiar, and I squinted my eyes before widening them and rushing towards her, making her notice my presence.

“Your Highness!”

“Cara!”

We said simultaneously and without further thought, pulled her into my embrace before pulling away from her after remembering that Ronan said she had been injured.

“Are you okay now?”

“I’m fine, Your Highness, I’m sorry for leaving you.”

I nodded. “I heard what happened to you. Come, sit. Whoever did this to you has to be punished,” I led her to the edge of the bed.

“What happened?” I peered into her face.

Her eyes were averted.

“I was sent on an errand and on my way, I don’t really remember, but the last thing I remembered was waking up in the hospital. They said I had been unconscious for three days.”

I nodded, noting how her tone held how hurt she was.

“And who sent you on this errand?”

“Abby, one of the other maids. She said it was the head maid’s order.”

I placed a hand on her shoulder and peered into her face. “I promise you, Cara. I will get vengeance on your behalf.”

“How do you feel now?”

She nodded. “Very fine, Your Highness.”

“Good. I want to reappoint you as my personal maid.”

Her smile widened. “Thank you so much, your highness.”

Later that day, I went out to see Adams, knowing that he must probably be worried about how I had left that morning.

The guards at his door told me that he was at the training ground and that brought back memories of how I used to train with Raider back at the mansion in Green Forest.

A few guards and maids walked me to the training ground and I watched as some of the soldiers trained.

The king was at the far end, sparing with his beta. His arms rippled as he flexed his muscles. His forehead was glistening with sweat.

I smiled as I watched him, suddenly feeling the urge to train as well. Unfortunately, I wasn’t dressed comfortably as I was wearing a dress.

As soon as he saw me, his eyes lit up, and he was distracted for a moment, making Ronan win their game. He chuckled and strode to meet me.

“How are you?”

I nodded. “I’m fine, and I’m sorry for leaving the way I did.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. I figured you just needed your…” he was talking, but my eyes were fixed somewhere else.

I was watching one of the guards spar with another and his skill was superb. It was unlike anything I had ever seen.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“Who is he?” I pointed at him and he followed my eyes.

“Oh, he’s a new recruit. He’s good, right?”

I nodded. He was perfect and I wanted to meet him.

“I want to train with him.”

He glanced at me sharply. “You want to train?”

I laughed loudly, making some of the soldiers glance at me before looking away.

“I was going to become a beta, of course, I had to train. I wasn’t just some girl. I was a warrior.”

“Interesting. I just realized that I don’t know a lot about you.”

I began to tell him how Cassandra had come by and how Ben reacted when I told him about her visit.

“He’s going to slip up pretty soon,” he assured me, and I believed him.

“I’ll be here to train tomorrow.”

I turned and was just about to leave when strong hands grabbed my arms and I spun around to come face to face with his hard chest, his towering height, making me seem like a dwarf.

“I love you, Lilith, and I’m going to make sure nothing ever comes between us.” He cupped my cheeks with his hand.

My eyes were fixed on his lips and Lexi melted just by looking at his eyes. His lips looked inviting and tempting, and I wanted nothing more than to taste his lips.

He leaned closer and my heart began slamming hard against my chest even though we were outside and there were lots of people out there, the only person I could focus on was him, and it felt as though we were the only people in the world.

His lips were close to my ear, making me shiver in a good way.

“Will you… move back in?”

I had been expecting him to ask that for a long time now, or I was going to tell him.

“Too soon?” His face fell, and he quickly masked it with a smile.

A grin broke out of my face. “Yes! Yes! I thought you were never going to ask.”

“Your Highness,” Ronan walked towards us, making us pull away from each other. From his expression, I knew that whatever he had to say was important.

“Your Highness,” he bowed as he glanced at me and I nodded.

“I have news from Green Forest.” His tone was firm, and I knew that it wasn’t good.

Had Cassandra said something?

“Alpha Rivers is dead.”

That was very unexpected news. Alpha Rivers had been very healthy the last time I had seen him at my mating ceremony.

“Does that mean…”

I gasped. This meant that Raider was now an Alpha and Cassandra was a Luna. How interesting.
