The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate
Chapter 335 Karenina And Leland

"This is such good news," Karenina muttered under her breath. She couldn't wait to see Nicholas's pained expression when she told him that the woman he loved was now pregnant with Duke Romanov's baby.

Sophie wiped her mouth with her sleeves and decided to walk inside, leaving the woman with the venomous mouth. She would let the guards handle Karenina.

"I am warning you, soon I will be the queen of Riga. If you don't get the hell out of this kingdom as soon as possible and go back to where you all belong, I will make sure your stay here will be like a living hell," Karenina crossed her arms and smirked, as she watched Sophie walked away from her. "You and your children will be under my mercy."

She added, "And you will regret the day when I asked you nicely to leave but you said no."

Sophie thought Karenina was crazy and didn't want to bother with her again, but when she heard Karenina mention her children, Sophie lost it.

She immediately turned around, still feeling like she wanted to vomit, and threw a murderous glare at Karenina.

"If you dare touch my children even a little bit, I will break both of your hands. Get out of here," she said coldly while emitting an intimidating aura. "GET OUT!!"

The servants who had seen Sophie act like that for the first time exchanged glances in astonishment.

"Looks like Luna has caught our Alpha's cold attitude," whispered a servant to her friend, meanwhile Karenina, who was silent because she was surprised to see Sophie's attitude clenched her hands in anger. She wanted to destroy Sophie even more.

"Luna, let us help you," said one of the maids who came to Sophie's side. Her friend got to Sophie's other side and they helped her walk inside the gate again.

For a moment, Karenina glanced at the guards who were around as they watched her and Sophie talk.

If she dared to attack Sophie then the guards would immediately protect Sophie and chase her away. She could see most of them were glaring at her and their hands clenched into fists, ready to kill her on the spot.

This made Karenina purse her lips. She really hated Sophie and wanted her to suffer. In order to do that, she must live. She had to save her skin and return to the royal palace safely.

As a result, she, again and again, could only suppress her anger and then turned and left there. However, before she left the gates, she turned again. She saw Sophie was helped by the maids walking quickly into the manor.

On the other hand, Leland who was discussing something with Lucas suddenly fell silent when he felt something. Did something happen to his mate?

He immediately got up from the chair and looked toward the window. He saw Sophie was walking inside with the help of two maids, and from the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Karenina who was standing in front of the manor.

"What's wrong, Alpha?" Lucas asked before looking out the window or at least in the direction his Alpha was looking at.

"Isn't that woman Nicholas Hanenbergh's fiancé? What is she here for?" Lucas muttered.

Leland didn't answer. He took a glance at Sophie and when he saw she was fine, Leland immediately darted out of his study towards the exit of the manor.

Actually, he could just jump right out of the window but that wouldn't look natural for a normal human to do. Just like Lucas, he was also curious as to why she had come to his manor.

"Princess Karenina Verhovent."

Hearing someone calling her name, Karenina immediately turned around and found a handsome white-haired man walking toward her.

For a moment, she was dumbfounded. Who was this man? He was so handsome and manly and Karenina was at a loss for words.

"Why are you here?"

From the man's white hair and blue eyes, Karenina could immediately guess who it was. She had also heard his voice in the royal palace when he attended her birthday.

Wait... was this man really Duke Romanov?

She was confused.

Wasn't he deformed and ugly? This man was far from ugly. It was the opposite, he was the definition of handsome and masculine. Someone that every woman dreamed of having in their bed.

"Duke Romanov?" Karenina muttered her question. She guessed this man was the duke, but her mind couldn't believe her own conclusion.

"You haven't answered my question," Leland crossed his arms on his chest, looking at Karenina with a cold stare. His voice was deep and made Karenina feel like she was dreaming.

This man was Duke Romanov?

"I-I... came here to..." Karenina couldn't blink. She knew it was rude to stare but she couldn't help it.

"Are you really Duke Ariam Romanov? Otherwise, I will not answer your question because only the master of this manor is worthy enough to talk to me. A peasant shouldn't try to be presumptuous and talk directly to a princess."

She decided to probe and make sure that this handsome man before her was truly the duke.

Leland wanted to roll his eyes, but she was right. He was now in the human kingdom. For them, classes and statuses mattered. If he still wanted to keep his disguise, he must follow their way.

"It's me. Now, answer me, what are you doing here? What do you need?" Leland asked dryly. He didn't know if Karenina already knew that he and the rest of the manor's inhabitants were lycans, so he was still trying to keep their heads down.

Karenina was surprised to know that her guess was correct. So, this man was really the duke.

What did she say to Sophie earlier today? Karenina accused Sophie wanted to go back to Nicholas because she wanted a handsome man to warm her bed.

Who could be more handsome than this big man over here? Karenina was wondering. She started to feel more bitter.

She stepped closer and looked at Leland daringly.

"Duke Romanov, the truth is... I came to beg your wife to stop flirting with my fiancée."

Leland's brows dropped when he heard Karenina accuse Sophie of flirting with her fiancé. Tch! Wasn't it the other way around?
