The Alpha King's Rebellious Queen
The Alpha King’s Rebellious Queen Chapter 21

Jemma’s POV

My eyes opened slowly from a night filled with happy dreams. I was nestled against the hard body of the man I loved. He had me wrapped in his arms as I felt his hot breath on the back of my neck. His scent comforting me. I tried to escape his hold only to have it tighten. A light k**s on my shoulder told me he was awake too.

“Good morning, my Queen.” He mumbled softly. “Did you sleep well?”

I leaned more into his embrace and turned my head as he placed a k**s on my cheek. “I slept well, my King,” I whispered as his lips moved from my cheek to my lips. I gently stroked his arms as we kissed. I managed to turn myself in his hold and was now facing him. Our naked bodies mashed together as I gazed into his deep blue eyes. I stroked his cheek and rested my forehead on his. “Let’s never leave this bed.”

“Oh, how I wished I could stay here with you forever.” He smiled against my lips, planting light k****s on them. “But the kingdom awaits.”

I sighed. “If you insist.” I started to wiggle from his embrace. “I have to pee,” I nibbled his chin and was reluctantly released. I rolled off the bed and jogged into the bathroom. When I was done, I ran out of the bathroom and into the closet. I was rummaging through my workout clothes when I sensed him behind me. He was leaning against the door of the closet in all of his royal glory. “I see you are standing at attention already,” I smirked at him,

He looked down and laughed. “It’s hard not to be while in your presence.”

“You said hard.” I laughed as I pulled a pair of shorts and tank top out of my drawers.

“You aren’t going to training today.” He said, standing directly behind me, his e******n poking into my back.

“Why?”

He stroked my arms while placing a k**s on my shoulder. “Maria hasn’t found a suitable sparring partner for you yet, and she is needed elsewhere today, so she can’t train with you.”

I sighed. “I’m marked now, though.”

“I know that.” He ran a finger over my mark-making my body tingle and my knees weak. “My mark suits that pretty little neck of yours.” He kissed the sensitive spot making me m**n. “Besides, you need to learn the boring offie stuff that goes with running a kingdom.”

My shoulders dropped. “But-“

“You can miss a day of training, from what I saw last night. I was so proud watching you dispatch those rogues so easily.”

I turned myself around and wrapped my arms around his neck. “Well, Leonora is a beast,” which caused her to growl. ‘I meant that in a good way.’ I kissed him softly. “Okay fine.” I pulled away from him and looked at my new clothes. Izzy had allowed me to buy pantsuits instead of dresses. I selected one and set it aside. “I gotta take a shower.” I started to walk out of the closet but was grabbed. I turned to see his blue eyes sparkling.

“Can I join you?” He smiled seductively at me.

Taking a deep breath, I shook my head. “Cass, I think we should hold off on more s*x until I can get some more birth control pills.”

A growl ripped out of his as he released my arm. “You aren’t going back on birth control, Jemma. I told you before I fully intend to get you pregnant.”

My eyes narrowed at him. Here we go with another morning fight. It seems to be our pattern. “You don’t get to tell me what I can and can’t do with my body, Cassius. I told you before that I am not ready to have pups with you. I want to wait a few years. Okay?” He opened his mouth like he was trying to say something. His eyes flickered black to blue. I folded my arms as I waited for him to say what was clearly on the edge of his tongue. “Look, I do want pups with you. Just not yet. Alright?” He turned away from me, and I took that as a cue to take a shower.

The hot water felt good, cascading my slightly sore body. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t sore from last night’s lovemaking. My mind imagined us together. The pleasure I felt was like nothing I had ever felt before. I had heard others say that s*x with your fated mate was better than any other s*x. And I had to agree. The sparks of electricity that shot through my body only increased the pleasure. I felt myself getting aroused at the memories. I placed two of my fingers on my clit and began to rub. I m****d slightly as my head rested against the marble tile in the shower. My eyes closed as I increased my movements. Sensing I wasn’t alone, I opened my eyes to see him standing outside the doors and watching me. His hand on his c**k rubbing. I smirked, and he rushed into the shower. He grabbed my arms and pinned me to the wall. “Cass, I said no se-” I was interrupted with a fierce k**s on my lips as one of his hands was touched my clit.

“I couldn’t stand watching you get pleasure down there without me.” His other hand massaged my breasts as his tongue flickered out to encircle a wet n****e.

A m**n escaped my mouth as my body tingled from the touch. “Cass,” I breathed out. I gently grabbed his already hard c**k and stroked the soft skin. He nibbled my neck, making me weak in the knees. “Cass,” I whispered as I came undone. I was feeling the need to have him in me again. I didn’t care if I was on birth control or not. “I want you in me.”

He chuckled against my lips. His blue eyes piercing into mine. “Are you sure?”

I nodded as I added my other hand to his c**k. He m****d while turning me around and bending me over. I braced myself against the wall as he rubbed my clit with his hand before placing his c**k at my entrance. He leaned down and kissed my shoulder before thrusting into me. He held my h**s as he slammed into me. I cried out in pleasure. He wrapped an arm around my breasts and pulled me up and kissed my shoulder, and then trailed his lips to my mark. He bit down as he increased his thrust, making me scream out. “f**k!” I m****d. “CASS!”

“That’s it, baby, scream my name.”

I felt ready to o****m even though we have just gotten started. He pulled out of me and made me turn to face him. He placed k****s on my breasts as he pinned me to the wall. He reached under my thighs and lifted me up. I wrapped my legs around his h**s, and he sheathed his c**k into me then began to thrust into me while my back scrapped the wall. I wrapped my arms around his neck while moaning. “CASS!” I screamed out, which only enticed him to go harder. I felt my walls clench as my o****m was building. “I’m going to cum.” I cried out.

“c*m for me, baby.” He whispered while biting my mark.

I screamed as my body convulsed from my o****m. “f**k!” My body tingled as I panted. With a loud growl, he followed my o****m with his own. I felt his hot seed fill me up. Sighing. I had to resign myself to possibly getting pregnant this soon. Gently he pulled out of me and gently placed me back on the floor. My legs were a little weak, and I stumbled only to have an arm snake around my stomach. We then proceeded to wash each other.

After the hot shower, we dried off and were in the closet getting dressed. I put on a dark blue pants suit. I admired myself in the mirror while he stood behind me wearing a black three-piece suit. He was looking hot as usual. He kissed my neck. “I can’t wait to see that belly swollen with my heir.”

My eyes rolled as I pulled away from him. “I wish we could wait,” I mumbled. He sighed and clasped my hand, and pulled me out of the closet. He walked us over to the couches, and we sat down. “What?”

“I have to tell you something serious, but I don’t want you to get mad.” He was looking me dead on.

My head tilted. “Tell me. I promise I won’t get mad.”

He took a deep breath. “In about six months, I will be twenty-five years old.” I nodded as he paused. He traced a circle on the palm of my hand. “If I do not have an heir by my twenty-fifth birthday, my family will lose the crown.”

My mouth fell open. “Are you f*****g serious?”

A growl rumbled out of him. “I wish you wouldn’t cuss like that. But yes, I am f*****g serious. If you aren’t at least pregnant by my birthday, we will lose the crown.”

“What? I mean, what will happen if you lose it?”

He sighed. “It will pass to my cousin Felix and the world as we know it will fall into darkness.” He explained. “Felix wants to enslave humans, which puts not just the supernatural world but the entire world in jeopardy. I didn’t want to tell you, but you want to wait. And we don’t have the time for us to wait.”

My eyes closed as I took a deep breath. “So no pressure.” I chuckled dryly. My skin tingled as he traced the back of his hand down my cheek. I opened my eyes to see his sincere blue ones watching me. I didn’t want him to lose the crown. “How come I have never heard of this before?”

“It’s not common knowledge for people outside of the royal family. I hate that we have to rush into having a baby. I wish we could wait too, but-“

“I understand, Cass.” I smiled brightly at him. “I love you. I just wish we could get to know each other more before jumping into parenthood.”

He nodded. “We have forever for that, Jemma.”

I stood up. “I have to finish getting dressed.” I didn’t give him a chance to respond before I walked into the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror as I ran a brush through my long blonde hair and then pulled it into a tight bun. I put on some light makeup and exited the bathroom. Cassius was waiting by the door for me. He smiled as he looked at me.

“You look beautiful, my Queen.” He held out a hand as I clasped it.

I just smiled. “And you, my King, are f*****g hot in that suit.” I knew he hated the cussing, but he flashed me a smile as he opened the door. “Like, seriously, I’m not even into suits, but every time I see you in one, it makes my knees go week.”

He laughed as we walked out of our bedroom hand in hand. I walked tall beside my king.

“Well, don’t you two look elegant this morning,” Terry said as we approached the elevator. He was standing beside Izzy wearing a pair of slacks with a red polo shirt.

Izzy smiled at us. She is wearing a long blue skirt with a low cut silky multi-colored shirt. “It’s nice to see you both smiling for once in the morning.” Her eyes widened as she spied the marks on our necks. “Hallelujah, you marked each other.” She pulled us into a hug then released us when the elevator door opened. We all walked onto the elevator. “So, what are you doing today?”

“Cass wants me to learn the boring office stuff.”

Izzy laughed. “I don’t miss that part of the job.” She looked at Terry. “Right, Ter?”

“Right Izz. So, glad we are retired now.” They laughed together.

“Will she be in the office all day, Cassy?” Izzy asked her son.

He shrugged. “I’d like her to learn as much as she can. Why?”

“I wanted to discuss the coronation with her.”

My eye widened. Holy s**t. The reality was setting in. “Right, coronation. When is that happening?”

“Hopefully, on the next full moon, so just a couple of weeks away. We need you to try on the gown and discuss arrangements.”

I frowned. “Gown?” The elevator doors opened, and we all walked down the corridor towards the dining room.

“Yes, it is a big awful poofy thing that has been in the family for centuries. Trust me. It’s hideous, but it’s a tradition for the newest queen to wear it.”

I laughed at her honesty. “Please tell me it isn’t pink.”

“Blue.”

“Oh good, at least it isn’t pink.”

Terry laughed. “Oh, come now, Izz. You looked ravishing in that gown.”

She rolled her eyes at him. “I pretty sure you were drunk as a skunk that night.”

“No, I wasn’t Isabelle.” He glanced at Cassius and me. “Well, okay, I may have been a little drunk for part of the night.”

We entered the dining room, and everyone stood up. Izzy and Terry went to their seats as Cassius, and I stood at the head of the table. “Good morning, everyone. Such a beautiful day. Let’s eat.” Cassius nodded to the omegas, and then we sat down.

I heard Deke snicker from his seat. Cassius shot him a look. “What are you snickering at?”

“Someone got laid last night.” The beta laughed.

Cassius snorted. “Am I that obvious?”

“You might as well put up a billboard,” Maria joined in while everyone laughed. The delicious scents of breakfast filled my nostrils as a plate of crepes was set in front of me. It was covered in fruit and whipped cream. There was a side of sausage and eggs. My mouth watered as I took a forkful. “Mmm.” I m****d.

“That’s how you sounded this morning when I had you pinned to the wall this morning, Cassius said in my ear.”

“Eww, Cassius,” Ainsley said beside me. “I am trying to eat here.”

He smirked at his sister. “Well, maybe you shouldn’t be eavesdropping, Ainsley.”

“You two are right next to me, Cassius.” She squealed.

“That doesn’t mean you have to listen.” He argued back.

She rolled her eyes. “Maybe talk quieter,” She retorted. “I don’t need to know what my brother was doing this morning.”

“Cassius, Ainsley. Knock it off.” Isabelle barked at her children. I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Ainsley started it,” Cassius mumbled.

Isabelle raised an eyebrow. “I don’t care who started it.”Everyone else at the table laughed as his mother was lecturing the king. “Damn pups.” She mumbled before looking at me. “So, Cassy, around one, can I steal Jemma from the office to discuss the coronation and try on the gown?”

He nodded. “That sounds, reasonable Mother.” He glanced at me. “Is that alright with you?”

I shrugged. “You mean I have a choice in the matter?”

“Of course you do.” He smiled at me. “But the sooner you get started on coronation things, the better.”

I looked at Isabelle. “I’m not going to have to arrange flowers and fold doilies am I?”

She threw back her head and laughed. “No, you silly girl. But you do get to pick out flowers and the menu. And I’ll go over a few things with you.”

I made a face. It sounded a lot like Luna classes. Which I never enjoyed. “That doesn’t sound fun at all, no offense Izzy. I’m just not a party planner type.”

“Well, you are going to have to learn to be, Jemma. That is part of being Queen.” She narrowed her eyes at me. “Trust me. It isn’t that bad.”

I sighed. “It sounds like the Luna classes my mother forced me to go to. I hated Luna classes. I would rather be out in the training field learning to fight.”

Isabelle sighed loudly. “There is more to life than fighting, Jemma.”

“Fine, Izzy. You win.” I mumbled as I finished my breakfast. I glanced at Cassius. “At least I’ll be able to make sure everything is pink.”

“The kingdom colors are blue and gold,” Cassius laughed. He clasped my hand. “Are you through with breakfast?”

I nodded. “Yeah.”

He stood up. “Well, let’s get to work then,” He pulled me to my feet. “Deke, Maria. My office in five.” He said to his second and third. They both nodded as he walked me out of the dining room and towards his office.
