With a stubborn look on my face, I looked at the alpha king, not wanting to back down at him. "I said you are only jealous of Sir Elijah," I repeated.

Oh, Moon Goddess.

What had gotten in my mind when I did a great job of angering him?

Consider yourself a goner after this, River, another part of my mind said. Alpha King Maxxwell will toss you to the bottom part of the ocean and will put a stone on both of your feet.

Yeah. I was a fool for fighting him, but my mind couldn't stop fighting back. I was certain I would harvest this stubbornness.

"Why would I, River?"

"That's the confusing part, Your Majesty. You have everything. You have a harem. A handful of slaves. A battalion of guards. Warriors. The people. And you have me."

"I have you?"

"Yes. You have me," I said confirming his statement.

"I do not have your loyalty, River which is one of the greatest mistakes you did. After what happened with Elijah and you, you will side with him."

Wait. Was that jealousy I was hearing in his voice? No. No. The alpha king was not the jealous type, right?

I stepped forward. "I am loyal to you, Your Majesty," I lied with a straight face.

"Enough of your falsehoods, River. You cannot make a fool out of me."

I widened my eyes. "Fooling you? I am not that wicked, Your Majesty!"

"As of now, I am forbidding you to meet Elijah in whatever places, especially the watchtower where you would do a lot of sinful things."

Sinful things, my ass. There was nothing sinful when I met Elijah on the watchtower. I only massaged him!
