"Take off your clothes, I want to see the body I'd be living with for the rest of my life," he commands, moving to the other side of the room where the red armchair was.

She hesitated, and that displeased him. He growled, clearly infuriated. “Do you need some kind of motivation? Because you will not get it. Take off your fucking clothes!” he thunders, making her jump and her legs shake.

With shaky hands and a trembling body, she grabbed the hand of the silk gown again and dragged it down. Her eyes stayed glued to the floor, not having the audacity to look up at the alpha king across the room from her.

Mia Asika had wanted only one thing for the longest time, enlightenment and the freedom to travel the world in search of it. Mia's dreams however ended the day Ariel, her beautiful and fair older sister who was betrothed to the alpha king, died the night before her marriage and she became the last resort. Hated at sight, the alpha king moved to make her union to him that of misery. 

Can Mia's will for survival withstand the alpha king's cold and unloving nature?

The Alpha King's Ugly Bride

　　Robb had just broken the protocol that had sustained the trial by the witness for over a hundred years by allowing them to testify. It was obvious he did it because Xavier was his son, but no one questioned his decision.


　　An opportunity had presented itself, and Mia was grateful for it.


　　Edward moved forward and Robb gave the go-ahead to speak.


　　Edward introduced himself and his relationship with the alpha king and asked why he bore witness to him. Then he moved to state reasons he believed the alpha king was still a good choice for the kingdom.


　　“There are two people with better hearts than the alpha king in this kingdom, and that’s the high priest, Eric, and Queen Mia.”


　　Xavier couldn’t believe all the things Edward said up there about him. His brother truly believed he was an excellent king. It shouldn’t surprise him. Edward had always said he had a good heart, but hearing testimony to that hit him differently.
