My Personal Lycan King

"Alex! I am going to meet Daniel! Are you coming?" Victoria shouted, standing in the middle of the hall with her head raised to look in the direction of alexander's room.

"Jasmine, uhh… Can we talk?" A soft voice cake from Victoria's behind, making her back go stiff. ​​

"I need to go and meet Daniel," Victoria replied, without turning around, already knowing who was the owner of the voice.

"Please, Jasmine. It will take only a few minutes." Rosaline said, holding Victoria's hand now.

Sighing loudly as her amber coloured eyes observed Rosaline, she tried to read what Rosaline was thinking, so that she could get over with this quickly.

Rosaline wasn't a bad lady, or that's what she had always thought. But it doesn't mean that she can ignore the fact that Rosaline tried to hook Alexander with Laila as soon as she was out of the picture.

She can't get over the fact that she almost lost all her energy when she was healing Rosaline, and in return, she betrayed her by hooking her mate with a girl that tried to kill her.

Victoria couldn't let it go, and neither could Jasmine and Carla.

"I don't know what's your connection with Victoria, or if you are Victoria, or maybe you don't even have any relationship with Victoria, but can you tell me what is your mindset and intentions regarding my son?" She asked, directly coming to the point.

"Sorry?" Victoria asked, a little confused.

What was she really trying to ask?

"I mean you look exactly like my son's ex-mate, and if you are not serious about being with him, can you stop being around him? It's affecting his life. He needs to get married and find himself a queen by his side that can rule with him." Rosaline said, more clearly this time.

"By queen, you mean Laila, right?" Victoria asked, looking over Rosaline's shoulder at Laila, who was hiding behind the pillar at some distance while her body positioned in such a manner that clearly indicated that she was eavesdropping on their conversation.

"It doesn't necessarily mean Laila, but- " Rosaline started but was cut off when Victoria laughed mockingly.

"You know, Victoria was a fool to have saved you by risking her life. If it would've been my choice, and I knew were this mean, I wouldn't have batted my eyes and left you dying." Jasmine said, taking over Victoria momentarily, her anger flaring up.

"Sorry?" Rosaline asked, horrified. This was probably the first time someone was talking to her like this, and being the former Queen, she obviously didn't like the disrespect.

Moreover, what confused her more was, how did this Jasmine know about Victoria saving her?

"What I mean is, I have targeted Alex, a.k.a you son, he is on my radar, and I am intending to marry him. So you get how serious I am, don't you?" Victoria said, coming back in power.

"Mom, what are you guys talking about?" Alexander asked as he descended the stairs and walked towards the duo.

"We were" Rosaline started wide-eyed, still confused over what Victoria has said, knowing her son will throw a fit again if he came to know what she was talking about.

"We were talking about our marriage. Your mother wants me to marry you as soon as possible. Right?" Victoria asked with a smirk on her face, knowing that she won't spout anything useless in front of Alexander.

And Rosaline, who thought that she was talking to Jasmine, smiled awkwardly before nodding her head.

"That's awesome, mom. This time I won't stop you from preparing for the marriage. You can start your preparation anytime. I want to make it big." Alex said before pecking Victoria's lips.

"Yup, she can do that. I like grand things. I want every alpha and luna out there, invited to our marriage. Everyone should attend the marriage of their Alpha king and see who their queen is." Victoria smiled, her gaze flickering to Laila, who was standing there with clenched fists.

Ha...If this didn't make her day today, she doesn't know what will,

"Of course, we will make it big, baby. As you wish, everyone will be called." Alex said before he looked at his mother.

"How about the first week of next month? You will be able to prepare a lot till then, no? Let's tell dad about it later. I know he will be happy for us. He is really fond of you." Alex said before nuzzling his face in the crook of Victoria's neck lovingly.

Victoria, on the other hand, smirked at Rosaline's shocked face before placing her hand on top of Alexander's head that was still in the crook of her neck.

"No one is more fond of me than you," Victoria said, teasing Laila some more.

"Of course, sweetheart. I love you Vi- Jasmine," Alex said, making Victoria chuckle at his slip-up.

"Let's not waste more time. The sooner we complete our work, the more we will be able to spend more quality time with each other. Let's go and meet Daniel, yeah?" Victoria said, still smiling proudly at Rosaline and Laila.

"Mmm… Your scent and presence are so distracting that I can't even get a hold of me." Alexander said, hugging her close.

"Hey, stop. We are standing in front of your mother." Victoria said, faking her shyness.

"That's okay. My mother will be happy seeing me this happy with my love." Alex said, making Victoria chuckle.

"Of course, she will. Right?" Victoria asked, and though Rosaline didn't like this new arrogant Jasmine, but because her son was standing there, she complied with her and said a small yes before she turned around and left.

"Aunty, what is going on? You should've asked Alex about leaving her. What were you doing standing there? Did you agree to their marriage just like that? I am sure she is playing with him and nothing more. " Laila said with squinted brows.

"I couldn't say anything in front of Alexander, but you are right. She is indeed conniving." Rosaline said her jaw ticking as she saw Jasmine leaving hand in hand with her son.

"Aunty, you can clearly see that the girl is not good for him. You know me for soo long. I am the best candidate to become the queen, I mean Alex's wife." Laila said, making Rosaline turn around and look at this girl before she nodded absentmindedly and went towards her room.

Perfect candidate? She knew Laila was after the crown only because she knew that Laila is clear with the fact that Alex will never love her like a wife. And for her to show this enthusiasm about this marriage, it was all about the crown.

The only candidate that was suitable to become her son's wife was none other than Victoria. She was a gem that they lost, and now her son was trying to replace that gem with this silver called Jasmine that might turn poisonous for him.

Remembering Jasmine's words about how Victoria was a fool to save her, Rosaline opened the drawer of her nightstand and took out the only photo of her with Victoria.

If only she could tell her the truth. That day after Victoria was declared dead, she was probably one of the person's that cried soo much for her loss, for she not only lost her daughter-in-law, a queen, her son's mate, but also her daughter.

Though she doesn't tell and shows that to anyone, she still loves Victoria and misses her. That day when they almost lost their son, she was preparing for the marriage of Alex and Victoria because she had contacted a witch, and she said that Alex will be meeting his mate soon.

However, who would've thought that rather than Victoria coming back, Alex would almost lose his life.

Maybe that was what she meant. That her son will be meeting his mate soon in heaven. That was the reason why she stopped talking and thinking about Victoria, but it didn't mean she doesn't miss her.

It doesn't help now when Alex has brought back Victoria's lookalike. A few days back when Jasmine entered the mansion, for a moment she thought it was Victoria only, however, when the girl didn't even bother to talk to her and disrespected everyone, she knew that this girl can't be Victoria.

Even today, her behaviour was so rude.

Sighing loudly, she roamed her hand at the photo frame of Victoria before smiling sadly.

If only one of her wish could come true then she would ask Victoria to come back.

Everyone blames her for thinking too much into things and always trying to book up Alex, but she was doing all of this because the kingdom needs a queen as she has been hearing many rumours going around about the king being mateless. A king who is mateless for this long is considered a weak king, and that was the last thing she wanted for her son.

"Why did you leave us, my daughter? If I could, I would happily trade my life for you." Rosaline said loudly, unknown to her, Victoria who had tried to enter her mind, heard her words crystal clear.

Her eyes watering at what she heard.

Maybe she had taken Rosaline's good intentions towards the kingdom as hatred towards her.

Sighing loudly, she looked at Alex, who was talking on the phone to someone about some vampire attacks in the vicinity of a pack that was a few hundred kilometres away from here.

'I just hope that everything gets okay as soon as possible.' she thought before hugging Alexander, who looked at her with a confused gaze while talking on the phone but hugged her nonetheless.
