The Alpha King's Mate novel Chapter 50

"You will have to try my scones then," I hear in a familiar posh tone.

"I will eat anything you give me, darling." I hear in another familiar voice.

"Vivian?" I yell. And fall over in the bush.

"Maia, is that you out there?" She yells.

"Yes, Vivian, it's me," I say, exhausted.

I'm struggling to stand up, and my balance is off. I hear footsteps run towards me.

"Maia, your cheek is red. You look… terrible," she cries as she pulls me into her chest and embraces me.

"Luna," Troy says and falls to his knees in front of me next to Vivian.

Overwhelmed and relieved to see them, I burst into tears.

"Luna, you are tired. Let me carry you," he says.

I nod, accepting his offer.

He carries me towards a crowd of people. I recognize they are villagers from West Wallow.

"What are you all doing here?" I ask in surprise.

"We have come to fight for you, my Queen," one villager says as they all bow.

I nod and smile, accepting them as my people.

"We must be quick. The army is near, and I only just got away from the soldiers. King Fenris's Commander and General are also with them searching for me,"

Troy nods and sits me on Vivian's horse with her.

Yelling can now be heard close behind us.

"There she is," a soldier yells.

Unknown to the group of soldiers, they are outnumbered by a few thousand villagers here to protect me. It's too late for them when they realise they are surrounded. Commander James and General Zander are behind the soldiers and quickly gallop away toward King Fenris and the army.

Troy shifts into his wolf and kills ten of the soldiers himself.

"Leave the bodies. I want King Fenris and his army to see them," I command.

We continue forward and reach Thistle Well.

"Luna, we are here. We are finally here," Troy says with relief.

Hundreds of pack warriors approach us.

"Troy, it's good to see you," a warrior says, then looks and inspects all the villagers.

"Troy, are these humans?" He asks.

The warriors begin to sniff the air and confirm their suspicions.

"Yes, they are here to help. They are going to fight alongside us," Troy says.

"Alpha King Damon and our Luna have also offered them our protection,"

They all look at each other.
