The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

Anne and Jack gave Leland a lot of love, care, and affection that made his heart feel very warm. They gave him all the things he never got from his biological parents.

They were two people who meant so much to him. And now he had to see how they died at the hands of his own mother? Could he bear the sight? Just thinking about it made Leland feel so upset.

"Are you scared? I didn't know you could be so affected by something," said Eloise seeing Leland's pale, tense face. This was the first time she saw Leland looking this way. The Alpha's expression confirmed how precious Anne and Jack were in his heart.

It made Eloise feel sick. She remembered that the two people were Sophie's parents. Eloise was annoyed that at that time Isolde only killed them and didn't kill Sophie too.

If that was the case, then Isolde's and Elaine's plan to betroth Eloise to Leland wouldn't have failed. Damnit. Isolde! You're so stupid and useless! Eloise cursed inwardly.

Meanwhile, Leland made up his mind and decided to see what actually happened to Jack and Anne. How did they die...

Leland's purpose in coming to Armeria was to find out the facts about these two people. Now that the truth that he was looking for was right in front of his eyes, there was no way he could miss it.

"Show me," he said after a long silence.

"Are you sure?" Eloise narrowed her eyes. "It's not a pretty sight."

"Shut up, Eloise, and just show me what happened," Leland was losing his patience.

"Okay." Eloise closed her eyes and then cast a special spell in her mind. Leland fixed his focus on the crystal in Eloise's hand and he was surprised when the crystal suddenly emitted quite a dazzling light.

Five seconds later, the light disappeared. Leland's eyes opened very wide when he saw Jack in the middle of the desert. Seeing the man's face after so long, Leland's eyes filled with tears.

"Uncle..." His voice trembled.

At this moment, the crystal shows Jack being held by two big and muscular lycans while another lycan beat him up mercilessly.

BAM! THUD! THUD!

The lycan beat the side of Jack's face in turn without the slightest pity. Jack's face was swollen, covered with bruises and his nose was bleeding profusely. One of his eyes couldn't even open.

His head drooped to the side, it was obvious that he was almost unconscious but the two lycans holding him forced him to stay upright.

The lycan who was in charge of beating him this time grabbed Jack's shoulder and hit the man in the stomach using his knee repeatedly.

COUGH.

Jack spat a lot of blood, darkening the golden color of the sand beneath. He fell to the ground as soon as the two lycans let go.

"Weak human!" Isolde crossed her arms on her chest, throwing a mocking look at Jack. "Anne left the tribe for someone so weak like you. I really can't comprehend her."

Leland had to exert all his sanity not to charge at his mother when he saw the evil look on Isolde. he told himself this was not real. What he saw was an event of the past, preserved using magic. His fists clenched to the sides and he gritted his teeth.

A gust of wind blew away a cloud of dust in the middle of a desert valley surrounded by rocky mountains. Leland slowly recognized this place as the Gazi Desert. The images flashing had changed into a new scene.

Jack was still there with his hands bound to the sides and a big rock on his back. The scorching sun burned his skin.

"Water… please give me water…," he said pleading for mercy but none of those there took pity on him.

"JACK!"

Suddenly a familiar voice shouted his name, and both Leland's and Jack's ears perked up. It was Anne's voice.

"Anne?" Jack lifted his heavy eyes with difficulty when he heard his wife's voice calling out to him.

"What do you want, Isolde? Let him go!" Anne glared at Isolde who was standing next to Jack while a dozen of her men surrounded Anne and cornered her in the middle of the circle.

Leland held his breath when he saw Anne after such a long time. He turned to look at his mother and couldn't believe that he was born to that woman. Isolde was neither human nor lycan. Her viciousness exceeded both races. Leland had never met anyone more evil than his mother.

Isolde had absolutely no mercy. Inside the woman's heart was only filled with obsession and ambition. Leland truly understood why his father couldn't find love in his heart for Isolde.

He wished Alpha Leon would have rejected the betrothal with Isolde when Anne left him to marry Jack. Leland didn't care even if he couldn't be born. That's how much he hated his mother and the crimes she had committed against everyone dear to him.

Isolde's lips curved up in an evil smile when she heard Anne's words. She tilted her face to the side and looked at Anne with so much hatred in her eyes. "What do I want? I want your life, Anne."

"No...." Hearing this, Jack lifted his face with difficulty and supported it with his chin. He tried so hard to find Anne to talk to her. The pain in his body was so great and he couldn't focus. From behind his blurred vision, he finally saw Anne in front of him being surrounded by lycans.

"Get out of here, Anne, ahh..." Jack spoke weakly while wincing in pain against the pressure of the rock that seemed to break his ribs and make it hard for him to breathe.

Anne gritted her teeth, trying so hard not to explode in anger. She clenched her fists and look at Isolde. "What did I do to you, Isolde? Why did you do this to my family?"

"I just hate you. That is all," said Isolde nonchalantly.
