The Mighty She-wolf of King novel Chapter 9

But that's how she wanted to die. She wanted to die at the hands of another than to have people know about the cancer that lived inside her body.

After her shower, Blake wrapped a towel around her body and walked across the hall towards her room. Throwing her towel on the floor once she was in her room, by her dresser. She threw a black tank top over her without putting her bra on and slipped into a black boyshorts panties.

Looking over her shoulder, she peered at the window. She walked over to the window, glaring at the moon that appeared in the sun's last light.

"Two weeks," she frowned taking her eyes off the moon and down to her backyard. In the shadow, Blake saw a body of a male creep up to the house and makes it's way to the back door. "Who the fuck-" she said cutting herself off and making her way down the hall to the stairs.

Her bare feet tiptoed to towards the kitchen. The kitchen door was slightly opened, with the kitchen light escaping into the narrow hallway.

Kicking the door opened, Blake marched into the room, ready to kill who-ever dared to enter her house without permission.

Before her, the mess hair intruder with leaves and grass in his brown locks was caught eating a banana from off the counter.

"Ross," she growled. Feeling her blood boil in fury. "Did I not tell you to stay inside the house!"

Ross froze in his tracks with a piece of his banana that was seeping out from between his lips.

"Well," she demanded, folding her arms over her chest.

Swallowing what was in his mouth, he coughed before speaking, "I went to get some air."

"Air? Open a window."

"But Blake-" he pleaded.

"Ross, the Hunt is near. You know that rogue sighting is an all-time high during this period of the year. What if a rogue or hunter saw you?"

"Blake, I can handle myself. And the hunters haven't come in our area since . . . since what happened five years ago," he said, forcing out the rest of his sentence.

"Your Highness you should get your rest," Dolph subjected. He stood behind Eric, looking out into the crowd that was slowly disappearing as the night went on.

"Your right," Eric sighed once more, slightly disappointed. He was almost looking forward to seeing the she-wolf's return. He wanted to hear her talk once more. Her boldness towards him gave him a refreshing feeling. He couldn't remember the last time a woman spoke to him the way she did. Or the way she acted around him. It was as if she didn't fear him at all. She didn't ever react to his pheromones when he tried to subdue her. She didn't even react to her own Alpha's pheromones. She was a very interesting she-wolf in did.

Eric lifted himself out of his chair and walked off the stage. By the time he reached the bottom of the small stairs, he was greeted by the Alpha Seth and his mother.

The ex-lune, Addy, was a tall slim woman. Her eyes were a light shade of brown. Her dark-brown hair hung just below her ear, and tucked behind her ear, showing off her heart-shaped face.

Alpha Seth was a spitting image of his mother. Tall, slim, with brown hair and eyes. But like many Alpha's he was big-boned and covered in muscle.

"Is there something wrong, your Highness?" Abby smiled, cupping her hands together before bowing, in respect.

"No, I would like to retire for the night," Eric spoke firmly, standing tall.
