The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101: AN ATTEMPTED ASSASINATION

XADEN’S POV

Early the following day, Xaden woke up with a throbbing headache.

His head was revered like a complete vibration.

He groaned as he put his hands over his head and tried to close his eyes to ease away the pain.

He got up, poured a bottle of whisky into his glass, and drank the entire thing.

Then he sighed as he dropped into a seat.

The pain finally slowly eased down bit by bit until it was gone.

He turned and saw his bed, and he remembered last night.

Jasmine and how much she had been with him.

Her caresses and touch.

He didn’t know what had overcome him to go along with her.

Or why he was having an urge to be with her.

He didn’t understand any of it. _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

He rose and rang for water to be brought for his bath.

After the water had been put in for him, the maid tried to bathe him.

"Get out." He snapped at her and she fled out of the room.

He didn’t want to have to deal with another she wolf again.

He had already woken up irritated.

He closed his eyes as he kept his head at the rim of the bath and let his mind wander.

He gently eased his arms on the side of the bath, and then he felt that it did not hurt anymore.

Jasmine’s treatment had worked on him. Then he remembered her again, and he groaned inwardly.

He turned and adjusted to let his mind rest.

He drifted off to sleep.

Someone in the main bedroom entered through his balcony as he slept off.

The intruder was flexible and buoyant with its body and barely made any footsteps.

The intruder looked around the room, searching for its prey, but no one was in sight.

The intruder saw the robes hanging at the edge of the bed and then looked up towards the bathroom.

The intruder, walking on tiptoes throughout, very gently moved to the bathroom and found Xaden asleep.

The intruder stopped and pulled out the dagger hidden in its conclave.

The dagger was as sharp as it could be, and it wasn’t about how sharp it was because an Alpha couldn’t just be killed by anyone, especially someone as powerful as Xaden.

He had to be administered some poison.

The assassin had received the blade from the one who had sent it.

It had been worked on, and a single prick from the tip of this blade and you would be dead in a second.

The assassin now went on its tiptoes and walked up to where Xaden was.

As the assassin stood behind him, he lifted the blade in the air and aimed at his heart.

As the assassin was about to plunge it down, the bath chamber doors were flung open, stopping the assassin from being in sight.

Xaden jumped up and turned to the doors to find out who had interrupted him in such a brutal manner.
