The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate-Chapter 74 Leland Could Feel Sophie Is In Danger

The night skies were dark, but even the moon was hidden because of the dark tumultuous clouds that poured down heavy snow. The temperature was so cold and freezing that most of the humans lay in their homes shivering underneath their covers and blankets.

There was currently a winter storm that put all of the people staying in their homes.

However, Leland stood out in the open balcony and was undeterred by the harsh temperature and barely batted an eye at it. A part of him watched the human lands in front of him and was imagining how he would change all of this once he conquered the kingdom.

"First, I need to gather more influence and be accepted into the social circles of the nobility," Leland gritted his teeth in annoyance and turned back to his study.

The Alpha would sit down in front of all the paperwork and place down his mask as he was momentarily alone.

Masquerading as Lord Ariam Romanov was a position that Leland did not actually like at all, because of how much he detested being a human and pretending to get along well with them.

However, he needed to do this. He must get himself to the capital without alarming anyone and remain unsuspected. Leland's mission was to kill the entire royal family and finally avenge the Hansleys' death.

After ten years of consolidating powers in the shadow, the werewolves tribe wanted to win the war this time by infiltrating the human kingdom undetected.

All the packs in their continent were ready to join forces to wipe down the human kingdom's powers over the land. They wanted to start with Riga, as their biggest enemy whose army had slain countless werewolves in the massacre ten years ago.

Duke Ariam Romanov was a reclusive nobleman who inherited his title and land from his father two years ago after the late duke passed away. They were a respected family in Frisia. However, the family suffered calamity when their only son was born with deformation.

He grew up with terrible skin deformation that ate out half his face. It shuddered anyone who saw him. When the family failed in getting the cure after countless efforts, he finally resorted to living in a recluse, never to show himself in public.

If he really had no choice and must make an appearance, he would use a mask to cover his hideous deformed face. But that actually made him a perfect cover for Leland.

The Blood River Pack had targeted this family since five years ago and sent spies to work in the family manor. They gathered enough information about the Romanovs to take over their identity. All they needed to do when they were ready was to kill the senior duke and had all his wealth and title transferred to his deformed son.

Once everything was done, they also killed Ariam, and Leland had been taking over his identity ever since. Now, slowly, they were moving their forces to Riga and started with small towns like Hastings, to later make their way to the capital, and infiltrated the upper class of Riga nobility.

Once they succeeded with their infiltration plans, the werewolf tribe would plan a great attack, when these foolish humans least expected it.

That was the end game. Isolde Salazar, Leland's mother, demanded Leland take charge and led the war. Once they won, he would be pushed to get the title of werewolf king.

This was the title that originally belonged to Sophie's grandfather, the greatest alpha the werewolf tribe had ever seen. It was such a prestigious role that would unite all the different packs under one leadership.

Alpha Leon, Leland's late father was eyeing the title when he was younger, but even he couldn't get it. After King Malachi passed away during the great war, nobody was ever good enough to replace him.

So, now, it was Leland's time to prove himself and his pack.

That's what his mother always told him, demanded of him. Always with the threat that she would hurt the Hansleys if he didn't comply with her orders.

That was until two years ago when Leland found out Jack and Anne were already dead. He wanted to leave everything behind and became a lone wolf. However, he finally changed his mind when he found out the Hansleys's death was caused by the royal family of Riga.

Now, killing them to avenge Jack's and Anne's death had become his main mission. Accomplishing his pack's goal was just a side bonus.

,m His mother didn't know this. Leland was not interested in becoming the werewolf king. He would just pretend until they finished everything. What's important was he could take Sophie away from his mother's threat.

Leland was brooding now as he looked at the documents, reports, and other letters that he needed to take care of. All of these useless human things he learned in order to do well, the Alpha was never in a good mood.

It was such a boring night until he suddenly felt a burning sensation come across his chest and he would unbutton his shirt to reveal a mark on his chest.

It was glowing a brilliant gold and was a burning sensation that made Leland instinctively get up and search for Sophie. This mark would glow when she was in danger.

Where was Sophie? Millions of thoughts immediately raced in his thoughts as he moved out to the balcony with a pounding heart.

His blood was burning with a rage that he knew was not his this time. What was happening to her? Who hurt her?

"Where are you, Sophie?"

Leland closed his eyes and concentrated. He felt a great pull that almost acted like a bound string that connected her to the woman and he realized that their distance was not actually that far away from each other. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

"Sophie is just here?" Leland's eyes widened momentarily but then he realized that the note that he had written for her to stay in Hauntingen might have actually encouraged her to leave.

A part of Leland was thrilled to know that she was so close by and he yearned to have her by his side. However, another part of him was already concerned about why she was in danger.
