The Alpha King's lost love

what is happening to me?

Rosalie

"Get in the bed with you?" I shouted at the back of his head. "I don't think so, can't you go to your own house or something, or I can go down with the other women where ever they are staying" I suggested.

He sat up again switching on the lamp on the table beside him and looked at me through squinted eyes. "I am in my own house, this is my room and you are sleeping here, not with the others, now please get in the god damn bed," he said pointing down to where I was laid seconds ago.

"No!" I snapped. "I'm sorry if you've not heard that word alot around here but I don't let men touch me without my permission"

He laughed to himself which I found very annoying, folding my arms across my chest I waited for him to get out the bed but he just laid there, not moving. "If I wanted to f**k you I would have done it in the car on the way here with or without your permission, you know very well you would never have the strength to stop me. I'm tired, it's been a long night for us both so get in lay down close your eyes, and go to sleep then no more will be said on the matter" he grumbled as he laid back down and switched off the lamp beside his him leaving the room in darkness.

I stood still weighing up my options, I knew once I was asleep he was going to make his move, and I wasn't going to let him. "I'd rather sleep on the cold stone floor than be in that bed with you" I seethed as I sat down on the ground like a moody child ignoring the coldness as it crept through my skin.

"Ok, as you wish," he said as a pillow came flying down at me hitting me in the face.

I snatched it away from my body and slammed it down on the ground. "Do I at least get a blanket?" I asked him waiting for it to come flying through the air at me.

"Afraid not, It's keeping me nice and warm up here" I could tell by his tone he was smirking. Fine, I'll show him. I laid down but the stone hurt against my bones so much that I had to bring my arms inside the baggy shirt and curl up into a tiny ball like a child. I closed my eyes and tried my hardest to fall asleep but couldn't. The room was silent, I could do this, I was no quitter.

My eyes shot open as a sharp pain shot through my insides, I sat up gasping at the pain in my legs. I was soo cold I couldn't feel my toes, my whole skeleton was trembling I couldn't stop myself. I looked around and everywhere was still in darkness, I couldn't have fallen asleep for long. A breeze blew past me as I heard raindrops beginning to fall outside. The window was open, no wonder it was so cold in here, I have been in dungeons warmer than this place.

I pushed myself up and shuffled across the room to close the window. Wrapping my arms around myself I looked around the room for some sort of jumper or anything I could possibly wrap around me. The towels in the bathroom were the best thing I could think of, maybe I could use them to make a bed? "Unless you want to die of hyperthermia get in the f*****g bed," a deep voice said from across the room.

"I'm fine!" I snapped as I walked back to my spot on the floor.

"The teeth chattering tells me different" I could make out his silhouette in the darkness as he sat up and pulled back the covers on the side closest to me. "I promise I won't touch you in any s****l way, I would just prefer not to wake up in the morning to a dead corpse laid out on my floor.

I listened to him and thought about it for a moment, I really couldn't take this coldness any longer. Maybe taking a risk and getting in the bed wouldn't be a bad idea, I mean if he was going to force himself on me he would still do it even if I was on the floor. "You promise I will be safe"

"I promise" he agreed.

It was too dark to see his face properly so I took the risk, grabbing my pillow off of the floor I slowly walked towards the bed being cautious of his movements, was this a game, or was he really being sincere? I guess I would soon find out. I placed my pillow on the edge of the bed and climbed on top of the soft mattress once again. He pulled the cover over me and I felt the temperature change almost immediately. "s**t your like Ice" he gasped. as his hand brushed against my arm.

"I kn-know" I shivered,

"Right well this isn't s****l in any way so don't overthink it, ok"

Before I could ask him what he meant he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me into his body. It was like being pressed against a furnace, for once I wasn't going to object, my body craved his heat and the tremors were beginning to calm.

I just laid for a while as my body warmed through, never in my life had I been held like this by any man let alone a Lycan. I knew their bodies carried a higher temperature than us humans but this was heaven. "Thankyou" I whispered, as I felt myself drifting off again.

"It's fine" he whispered back to me.

Morning came around all too quickly, I felt movement beneath me waking me from my slumber. I opened my eyes to the bright rays of sunshine pouring through the window directly on me. As my eyes adjusted to the light I lifted my head letting my cheek peel away from something sticky. "Morning" he breathed as he stretched out, realising I was laid on top of him I was quick to lift my body from his, since when did I get on top of him?

I scurried back onto my side of the bed which was cold, I hadn't slept this side at all during the night. "Sorry I didn't mean to sleep like that" I apologized trying to hide my embarrassment.

He laughed as he got up and sat on the side of the bed, "And to think it was me you were worried about copping a feel, your quite an intimate sleeper"

I looked away and closed my eyes as I heard his words making me cringe, I sat in silence hoping he didn't say any more on the matter as he got up grabbed his clothes from a drawer, and walked into the bathroom. I didn't know what I was supposed to do, What were my chores? did I have someone here showing me the ropes and what the hell was I going to be wearing I hadn't been issued my uniform yet, usually I am given my orders as soon as I arrive this was all new to me?

I got out of bed and straightened my clothes, waiting for the king to walk out of the bathroom. I could still feel the heat in my flushed cheeks knowing I had slept on top of the king, how did that happen? and why on earth did he allow it? Looking at the clock it was 6.45 Am quite late compared to the last couple of homes I have been in, most places like the cleaners to be up by 3 Am and get the jobs done before the masters are awake.

I didn't have to wait too long as the door soon opened and he stepped back into the room looking at me strangely. "Sorry I didn't know what to do, you've not given me my orders, I didn't know where to go," I said nervously knowing I was going to be in trouble.

"Orders, what orders?" he asked as he walked closer to me.

"What do you want me to do, cook, clean, wash clothes, or work out in the gardens?"

He raised his brow "I thought you didn't like obeying orders" he smirked.

"No, I like to help, it keeps me busy and the time passes quickly, I quite enjoy practical things. I don't take unnecessary orders that involve me having my dignity taken from me, People who think they are superior to us humans when in reality they don't have the brains to know which is the correct end of a mop to use"

"Hmm, I see" He hummed as he lifted my chin and looked at my face, I gasped at his touch as my face was very tender. The i***t from the Auction house obviously had a harder punch than I thought. "Your orders are to stay in bed for a little longer, I'll have someone bring you up an ice pack and some breakfast for your face then I will be back in a couple of hours to show you around and introduce you to a few people"

"Ok" I agreed, I wasn't planning on fighting him on it, I was still very tired and could very easily go back to sleep for a while. I walked back to the bed and climbed back in, it really was a high bed, easy for him as he was so tall. The King left shortly after that and I soon drifted off again.

Lucian

I woke up with a strange sensation running through me. waking up with her in my arms felt good like it had always been that way. Which made no sense because I always wanted my own space, it angered me every time Enola wanted to sleep in my room, I only let it happen once and I ended up going to sleep in my office because I couldn't stand her holding on to me all night. Why was it so different with her? why did it feel so right?

I dropped down the stairs two at a time making my way to my office where Paxton should be waiting for me like every morning. As I reached the bottom I saw Lucy the cook, she was also human, in her late thirties now she has been here for the best part of twenty years now. Never in my lifetime had I tasted food as good as hers, many of my men fall at her feet for one of her chocolate brownies. "Lucy" I called out to her before she went down the hall to the kitchen.

She looked behind her and spotted me instantly, "Yes your majesty" she bowed her head politely.

"I have a girl staying in my room with me, her name is Rosalie. She needs some breakfast taking up and an ice pack if you could spare a minute" I asked.

She raised one of her brows and looked at me strangely, "An ice pack" she tried to hide the smirk forming on her face.

I laughed at her response and walked away from her heading towards my office, "For her face Lucy, don't be so vulgar" I laughed.

I walked into my office to see Pax sitting on my chair reading through some papers. "Morning"

He looked up, dropped the papers onto the desk, and smiled like an i***t. "So did you f**k her, get it out of your system?" He asked as he got up taking his cup of coffee with him to the other side of my desk.

I sat down in my chair and took a mouthful of the black coffee enjoying the hot caffeine as it slid down my throat. "I didn't f**k her Pax," I said as drank a little more. I placed the cup back on the desk and looked across at him to see he was still staring at me waiting for me to explain further. "She needs some time to adjust first before I do anything, plus she needs to get her health up."

"Your certain she is the one," He asked.

I nodded my head, "I was beginning to doubt it last night but she is strong-willed and as stubborn as hell. She's a fighter and I think she will be strong enough to carry my child. I don't know what it is but I like her" I explained.

Pax raised his cup in the air to toast the fact that I actually said I liked a female. Enola was the only female I had taken a liking to in years but it was nothing serious. Yes, I liked her but nowhere near enough to begin a relationship with her, I wasn't one for sleeping around with the women here either, not that I was short of offers many of the women jump at any opportunity to try their luck but get shot down just as quick. "Well I can't argue that she is easy on the eyes, I wouldn't mind getting between the sheets with her" I felt a pang of jealousy hit me at the thought of the two of them together. I didn't like that comment about her she's not his to speak about like that, she is mine!
