The Alpha King's Witch Bride-Chapter 225: _Crowned In Blood

Ryker’s POV

*****

Everything was slowly falling into place for him.

The South American Alpha King and his Luna Queen were dead, causing a wave of anarchy in that continent. The world was now further divided — with most werewolves weary of witches and humans.

It’s not his fault that they got shown the truth...

Witches and humans were pests.

Ryker sat in his dark throne room, sipping from a goblet while plotting his next move. The world was his chessboard, and as far as he was concerned, he was the biggest player in the game.

Kaelos and his group weren’t able to decipher how he was able to use magic to hijack the world towers of the "World Alliance Television Network".

It was quite simple actually... He had powerful artificial Hybrid soldiers among his rogues who attacked the towers in North America.

These artificial hybrids were able to take control of the other towers in other continents around the world through a connected wide-range spell.

Ryker sniggered anytime he thought about it.

Kaelos and that hybrid mate of his were probably thinking it was the cause of a powerful witch or a group of witches.

"Although, she does seem like the smart one in that... Relationship." He mumbled to himself, smirking coldly. "Oh, she’s going to be an interesting character to tame once I get my hands on her."

He could already imagine it.

He got an update from Marcellus that she was pregnant but that in no way changed his mind from the idea of capturing her. He had so many uses for her... Being the Luna Queen of a pathetic Alpha King like Kaelos would be a waste of her potential.

Suddenly, he felt a presence outside his throne room door that caused him to raise a curious eyebrow.

Soon, the doors opened and Regina, his left hand and second most powerful artificial Hybrid, walked in.

She wore a black robe that flowed elegantly behind her, her high heels echoing with each click on the black marble floor. There was a confident smirk on her face and an envelope in her hands.

Ryker’s gaze fell on the envelope and he tilted his head curiously.

"Good evening, my lord." She bowed before him, her smile never disappearing. "I’ve brought some interesting news for you that I’m sure would be of great use to you."

Ryker arched a brow before sniggering slightly, his deep voice booming through the walls of the throne room.

"That’s a bold statement, Regina. I hope whatever it is holds up to it." He said, stretching his right hand forward.

"Oh, I’m sure it will, my Lord," Regina remarked slyly as the envelope floated out of her hands and into the claws of the true lord of the North.

He grabbed the envelope, opening it slowly as she continued.

"Remember Madame Grey heart? Before her daughter approached me to kill Odessa, she had been in contact with the witches of the Haven of the Lost for years. Possibly decades." She explained.

Ryker opened the envelope and brought out a letter as well as a recorded disk. He furrowed his eyebrows with curiosity as Regina went further to chuckle mischievously.

"In that letter is her written experience of something that happened almost thirteen years ago. Something that Kaelos literally begged her never to release to the public. A mystery that has haunted the Blood Oak pack and the continent for well over a decade."

She grinned broadly, seemingly reminiscing about something. "I... took it off Madame Grey heart’s other contact in the Haven Of The Lost after a little... persuasion."

Ryker felt the need to roll his eyes the more she spoke.

"Thank you, Regina. I think I’d rather read the damn thing myself than wait around while you edge me with suspense." He muttered plainly as his eyes skimmed through the letter.

He spotted Regina blushing with embarrassment for a second, but he couldn’t care less. freёweɓnovel_com

The letter read as follows:

>"20|September|2022.

To whoever is reading this, I am Madame Greyheart, a noble woman of the Blood Oak pack. Within this disk is recorded evidence that could very well change the narration of things on the continent.

Kaelos Bloodoak, the current Alpha King, murdered his father in cold blood..."<

Ryker’s eyes widened with surprise when he read that.

He raised his head and stared at Regina who now had a proud expression on her face.

Interesting indeed...

His lips slowly curled into a smirk as he continued reading the letter.

>"... Everyone knows how the former Alpha King, Balthazar Bloodoak, became even more merciless during the war after his wife got cursed by a witch and died. What many might not have known was the pressure the Alpha King placed on Kaelos. He wanted him to further his legacy of war and blood to the fullest.

Kaelos got fed up. I watched the lad slowly devolve before my eyes during court meetings. He’s been forced to fight in this war since he was a teenager because he awakened his wolf early. But a week ago... Kaelos finally snapped.

Apart from the guards present, I was the only one in the throne room. I watched Kaelos kill his father with his beastly wolf transformation. He proceeded to slaughter all the guards and would’ve killed me too... If I hadn’t been lucky enough to keep everything recorded on my phone and threatened to release it.

I helped Kaelos hide his dirty secret. I helped him get rid of anyone who might’ve been close to the throne room that fateful night. And I helped make the Alpha King’s death seem like a mysterious assassination through the help of my contacts in the Haven Of The Lost.

Now, today, at Kaelos’ coronation ceremony, I’m writing this as a fail-safe. In case the new Alpha King decides to get rid of me, whoever is reading this MUST make sure the recording on this disk is broadcast to the world.

If I fall... Kaelos Bloodoak must fall with me for his heinous crime."<

That was the end of the letter, as well as her signature underneath it.

Ryker sat in silence, slowly lowering the letter and the envelope. He stared at the disk, his eyes blinking slowly.

Regina had the common sense to remain silent during that moment.

But then...

"HAHAHAHA!" Ryker suddenly let out a maniacal laughter that shook the throne room as he slowly got on his feet. "The scripts have changed and now the universe has offered me yet another token to bring that false Alpha King to his knees."

Regina hesitantly took a few steps back as the shadows swirling around the lord of the North became thicker and seemed to transform into twisted figures that laughed with him.

"Oh, how poetic. The Alpha King crowned in blood. Let’s return him to it..."
