Ambrose’s POV

Emily was brought in like the criminal that she was and forced on her knees before Amanda and I. I sat in my throne while Amanda sat on the Luna chair beside me.

One thing irked me about the look on the maid’s face. Not innocent, jest. There was no sign of remorse or even fear in her eyes.

And to think that I assigned her as Amanda’s personal maid after the other two got arrested. The fact that Amanda could have died because of me and my foolishness.

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 45: An Eye for an Eye

    Amanda's POV I stormed out of the throne room after that but as I walked away, a part of me wanted him to come after me. To tell me I was being angry for nothing and at least give me a good reason why Jane has returned. But he didn’t, of course he didn’t. I wasn't that important for him to leave his high and mighty throne to come after me. I walked into my room and dropped into the bed, it wasn’t noon yet but the day already felt so hectic. At least Nyra and Claret were vindicated now.“Poor Nyra, that young girl hasn’t had any rest since she got here.” I muttered, my eyes fixed on the ceiling. Immediately, I heard soft footsteps outside my door. The sound stopped me mid-thought and I waited for whoever it was to come in. My heart jumped into my throat. For half a second I thought it was him. That maybe I wasn’t as unimportant as I’d told myself.But the knock never came.Just the faint rustle of fabric, and then the footsteps moved on, very slowly like whoever it was didn’t wan

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 44: Dungeon

    Ambrose’s POV Emily was brought in like the criminal that she was and forced on her knees before Amanda and I. I sat in my throne while Amanda sat on the Luna chair beside me.One thing irked me about the look on the maid’s face. Not innocent, jest. There was no sign of remorse or even fear in her eyes. And to think that I assigned her as Amanda’s personal maid after the other two got arrested. The fact that Amanda could have died because of me and my foolishness. Emily doesn’t know the gravity of what is actually about to happen. I cleared my throat, watching the crowd of maids, servants, betas and omegas flock into my throne room ready to see the scene unfold. “Emily Steinfield!” I called out, making her jump a little but the smug look stayed plastered on her face. She must be ready to die. The crowd silenced immediately as all attention shifted to the sound of my voice. “Are you responsible for attempting to poison the Luna and my unborn pup?” I asked, my voice firm and eyes

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 43: Poison Ivy

    Amanda's POV I refused to let her get to me. I put on a mask of both defiance and nonchalance immediately as I sized her up from head to toe. She looked bit thinner and frail. The blue long sundress she wore was twice her size and her hair had also lost some of its length. I guess surviving without being treated like someone that mattered took a toll on her. “Glad to see you’re back to the main castle, even though we were doing spectacular without you.” I hissed and her brows shot up. “Watch your tongue Amanda!” She spat. I laughed, a cold unnerving sound. “Avoid me and the paths I take, Jane. That’s the only way we can coexist in peace.” I replied, my voice firm. And then I walked away immediately. As soon as the cold wind from my opened room window hit my skin, I was reminded of the bloody knife I found under my pillow and the note beside it. It made standing in my room uncomfortable. At least they’d changed the sheets.The knife was gone. The blood was gone.And the windows

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 42: A Night in the Chambers

    Amanda’s POV“Lord Edgar, I’m afraid we’ll have to dismiss our meeting here. I need to get to the bottom of this immediately..” Ambrose said and Jane’s father glared sternly in my direction. I tucked my hair behind my ear and turned away from him, trying to avoid his gaze. “I do hope you do as you have said..” he growled and walked away. Ambrose walked up to me and crouched, placing his hand on my belly like he was trying to connect with the child inside. “How do you feel?” He asked and lifted his eyes to my face. “Still shaken. I don’t think I have the heart to stay alone tonight..” I muttered, my voice breaking halfway through the sentence. “You don’t have to worry about that. Tonight, you’ll be staying in my chambers. The investigation will start immediately because the more time we waste, the more time we’re giving whoever is responsible for this to keep hiding..” I rolled my eyes and inhaled sharply, “Please Ambrose, for now can we just not speak of this again? At least ar

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 41: A Stich in Time

    Thor’s POVThe moment Jane’s father walked in and shut the door, I exhaled heavily and walked away shaking my head. Because for all I knew, his sudden visit definitely had something to do with her coming back to this palace and that was something I felt horrible about. But there’s really not much that could be done from my end because I really don’t have a say when it comes to the affairs of the former beta and his majesty. I can only hope that his majesty is extra careful this time because knowing that lady Amanda is with child, I highly doubt if Lady Jane will take things very lightly with her.My head felt a bit heavy and I headed towards the kitchen to fetch some fruits. “Greetings, Beta..” a little girl greeted me and I nodded slightly. “Do me a favor and tell any of the kitchen workers that I need a basket of fru–”A gut-wrenching scream tore through the hallways and shook the pillars of the palace. My head shot up instantly and my eyes pried open. I brushed past the girl a

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 40: Bloody Knife

    Amanda's POVI don’t know how much time our lips spent locked together but I was breathless by the time we pulled away. The deep seated anger that was in my chest had completely vanished into thin air. “What was that for?” I muttered, my voice barely audible as blood rushed to my cheeks, turning them red immediately. He cleared his throat, batting his eyelids like he was also surprised by his own actions. “I guess the burning intensity in your eyes was too much for me to handle.” He said softly. My heart beat doubled and I bit down a smile refusing to let my mask of defiance slip off. “And what about my requests?” I blurted, my voice firm. If he thought that one kiss was going to be enough to make me forget the reason I stormed in here then he’d better think again. A sigh escaped his lips and he quickly turned around and returned to his throne, the stoic look on his face returning immediately. “As much as rogues deserve to be punished. I can see reason with the young maiden bein

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 2: I Accept My Rejection

    Amanda's POV I walked toward Duncan’s door, determined to meet him. There were so many things I needed to discuss, countless questions I had and I couldn’t simply stay back in my room and listen anymore. I was not going to allow him to get away with this without an actual explanation.“I'm sorry,

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 1: Rejected as Luna

    Amanda's POV My mate was being coronated as the alpha of the pack today, and for reasons I couldn’t fully name, a cold unease gnawed at me. This should have been a day of pride and triumph. Duncan had worked for this, and I had stood by him, sacrificed and bled alongside him, to make him worthy o

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 15: Aftermath

    Amanda's POV I woke to bright light filtering in through the windows I usually never forget to close. Thin, gold rays cut across the room and found my eyes before I was ready for them. I pried them open, slow and gritty from sleep and my hand lifted on instinct immediately shielding my gaze. T

  • The Alpha Who Couldn't Forget   Chapter 5: Rejected Again

    Amanda's POV “No! You belong to me!” Duncan yelled, his voice cutting through the air. His eyes were pale, lids barely open, a sign that he was still suffering from the weakness my rejection caused. I sat there, too stunned to speak and too weak to even move. How could the alpha king be my mate? W
