The Forced Maiden For The Cursed Alpha King by Josephine Ivy

Chapter 189 Sabrina's POV: "You want to know about me?" I asked.

"Yes. Telleverything." I readjusted in my seat and cleared my throat. I ran a slideshow of my life in my head as I debated where to begin.

"Okay so, I have a sister, she's younger than me." I said and started. "My parents favoured her more than me. She was a better wolf and all of that. My childhood wasn't the best, and it wasn't the worst either, it was just difficult." I glanced at him to see if he was paying any attention. His gaze was focused squarely on me.

"Fast forward to when I finally got mated. My life becslightly better. Then my sister decided she wanted that for herself. And my stupid mate wanted her back. This went on behind my back for a while til i finally caught them. My parents didn't even take my side. They sided with her. They humiliatedin front of the entire pack. I just couldn't take it anymore and I tried to kill myself. And then I ended up here and the rest is well...history." The king scoffed. "I can't believe that any man would let you go." The dull ache of Iris and Zayn's betrayal stung in my chest. "Well, it happened." "I'll have to admit that I knew of your parents not exactly caring much about you but this-" "You knew?" I blurted out. "How?" "I had my own findings done, and I called them here. At first I suspected you had svampire blood in you, hence how you were able to resist my compulsions." "Ans they chere?" "Came? I sent for them. Practically had them dragged here. But yes. They showedhow much they didn't care about you. But I had no idea it was this bad. They went as far as support your sister?" I nodded solemnly. My parents betrayal stung the least. I doubt they are even my real parents. Although it's clear that they are.

"I had no idea you were that worried." I said.

"That was what intriguedabout you at first. No one has been able to resist my compulsions. But then there you were. Now with the recent developments, I'm guessing it's thanks to your powers." "It could be," I said. My powers giving my mind immunity. If only they gavestrength when I needed it.

"Your parents, did any of them or anyone in their lineage show powers?" I thought about it for a while. "No. No one." "At this point I doubt they're your real parents. That would explain how they treated you." "Huh? I'm adopted?" I asked. "That can't be. I just wasn't their favorite daughter. They are my parents." He shook his head. "You haven't considers that they couldn't be your real parents?" I shook my head. “The thought hadn't crossed my mind at all.” But wait. It could be. Would real parents treatlike that? Lettingstarve, leavingin the cold, siding my younger sister and tellingto let it happen because Iris was a much better Luna? "I'm not adopted." I said with a shake of my head.

"Let's say you're not. But that still doesn't excuse how they treated you" He leaned forward. "Don't you want revenge?" "Revenge?" "Yes. On your parents, on your sister, on your ex mate for how he hurt you? Don't you want to make them pay? I can help you, Sabrina. Just say the word." I leaned back and folded my arms. "Why?" He blinked. "Why?" "Yes. Why do you want to help? What does it mean to you?" "I like you, Sabrina. And your problems are mine now. Your enemies are mine too. whatever causes you pain, causespain. And I do not like that." My cheeks heated up and I gasped. "Well I.......

Yes. I want revenge. On all of them. Including the pack members who mistreated me.

But now, I'm not so sure. Do I even want that? Right now the threat of Caldan stealing my powers and unleashing hell on earth is far bigger than revenge.

"I'm not sure," finally admitted.

"It's alright if you're not sure. You can decide later, the offer is always on the table. Should we drop it?" Inodded.

"Fine then. We won't talk about it anymore." I tried to say something and paused. "Your majesty, this isn't a fling, right?" "This?" "Getting to know each other better." He shook his head. "No, it isn't. Is anything bothering you?" I slowly nodded. "There's something I have to tell you, something I missed out that probably drove my parents to support my sister and my ex mate being together." "Nothing you say can excuse their disgusting behavior. But go ahead. Tell me, what bothers you." I inhaled sharply, and by doing so a sharp pain lodged in my chest. "I can't have children." I said softly. "I'm barren. But my sister wasn't. That's why my ex mate left me. No matter what happened, I couldn't give the pack an heir." He didn't say anything at first, his gaze tender.

"So if that bothers you, I totally understand. But I just thought you should be aware." "It doesn't bother me, Sabrina." He said. He reached across the table and took my hand.

"I thought that it would," "Silly you. I don't care about that. Your worth isn't tied to how many children you have. Kids or not, you are still Sabrina. My Sabrina." My heart skipped a beat and started to race.

"Your ex mate was sick in the head for his actions. He knew what he did when he hurt you with your sister. Do not ever blyourself for it. you are not responsible for his actions." "You're just saying that to makefeel better. Alphas need children, and I'm sure that you would want sof yours too." "I don't care for kids, I'm not the one going to birth them, and the crown doesn't have to be passed to my kids either." He tugged on my hand. "Cup, get up."

I got to my feet and he pulledto his side and into his lap. He guidedto sit, my hands in the spaceto sit between us and his on my waist. He held my gaze, his eyes more than I could ever ask for. "You're enough forSabrina. Exactly as you are. I wouldn't change you for anything." He said. His words spoken so softly opened the floodgates of my heart.

"I am?" I whispered.

"Yes. You are. I don't want you to ever doubt what you mean to me. And as many times as you want to hearрабие say it, prove it, act it, I will. A hundred times a day. A thousand. Just say the word." Tears rushed to my eyes and my lip trembled. A dozen words rushed to my tongue. But I knew that if I spoke anything, I would burst out crying.

So I hugged him, my face buried in his shoulder. He huggedclose, his arms strong and powerful, yet gentle. Holdinglike I was the most precious thing in the universe.

"It's okay," He said as he stroked my back. "You're sage withnow. I'm here for you. Always." I believed him. I believed every single word he said.
