The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

Leland\'s expression did not change. "Why should I be afraid of weak men who gain power  by taking advantage of women?"

Leland\'s words, which were extremely sarcastic, aroused annoyance within Elias. Although he didn\'t want to admit it, what Leland said was a fact.

Elias got the Alpha position because of Isolde\'s help who poisoned Alpha Zaros so he could ascend the leadership position. Then, he strengthened his pack and expanded his power by relying on the help of Eloise and her coven of witches. He wouldn\'t be where he was today without them.

​ "I want to meet my mother," said Leland, ignoring everyone in the room and focusing on Elias.

"She doesn\'t want to meet you. You are a useless child to her." Elias scoffed.

Leland, who had been feeling irritated for a long time, finally said firmly. "I challenge you to an open duel in front of everyone and then prove which one of us is useless."

Elias gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly. He knew that he would not be able to defeat Leland. Long ago, after the death of Alpha Zaros, his path to the throne was very smooth because no competitor dared to challenge him to a one-on-one duel.

"Are you scared?" Leland took several steps forward, his aura was extremely strong and pressing.

He looked at everyone there one by one and looked back at Elias. "What\'s wrong? Are you afraid that you will lose the duel and I take over the leadership of Obsidian Sand Pack? I am the nephew of Alpha Zaros so I am also entitled to the position of the Obsidian San Pack\'s Alpha."

"Nonsense. SOLDIER!" Elias shouted angrily.

Before the soldiers came, the man who had a scar crossing his left cheek stepped forward toward Elias. He spoke seriously and said, "Alpha Elias must accept this duel. Alpha Leland\'s claim is true. To maintain power you must accept and win this duel, if you lose then we will not be able to respect you anymore."

The people in the throne room agreed and said that Elias should accept the challenge.

Likaios also agreed. Even though he didn\'t like Leland, as the beta of the pack, he wouldn\'t want to respect a weak Alpha who ran away from a challenge.

Hearing the urging, Elias smirked and scoffed. He looked at Leland with disdain. "Okay, if you want to die, let\'s have a duel right now."

"I will wait for you outside," Leland said coldly.

He turned around and walked out of the throne room, soon followed by everyone. Elias stood up but he didn\'t immediately follow Leland out. He took a bit of time to retrieve poison from a cupboard behind his throne, and then quickly caught up with the people.

Meanwhile, Leland who was already outside also took advantage of an opportunity to give orders to Max to investigate the whereabouts of Eloise and his mother, Isolde. He really needed these two women to find out the true fate of Sophie\'s parents.

In front of the majestic Armeria Palace, Leland stood opposite Elias. All the Lycans gathered and stood in a circle. They would watch the course of the fight and ensure there was no cheating in the duel.

Elias was upset inside. He hated Leland who had put him in a situation of risking his honor and pride as the Alpha of the Obsidian Sand Pack.  But even so, he still showed a calm demeanor.

"I\'m giving you one last chance to change your mind," Elias said, smiling disdainfully. Leland\'s expression didn\'t change.

One moment, the wind blew between them, the next second Leland was in front of Elias with a fist punching his face.  Elias shifted to avoid it but a moment later a kick hit the side of his face which made his ears ring. Before the effect wore off, a hard smack hit him in the stomach sending him flying far back.

The line of lycans there was split in two and opened like show curtains.  A gust of wind fluttered Leland\'s hair as the man was standing calmly in the middle of the courtyard, looking at Elias who was tumbling.

"A-Alpha Elias?" The lycans who saw this were stunned.

There was a feeling of disappointment within them because all this time they had considered Alpha Elias to be a very strong Alpha. However, it seemed he was not even a decent contender for the Alpha position, compared to Leland.

When Elias got to his feet and saw all the lycans staring at him doubtfully, he gritted his teeth and looked at Leland with hatred.  He didn\'t want to lose his pride in front of all his men. He gave off an aura of anger that suppressed and frightened the pack members.

Realizing an imminent attack, Leland increased his vigilance. Elias tightly gripped the small vial of poison and sped off, jumping and transforming into a lycan while preparing to deliver his poisonous claws to Leland.

Leland jumped back. Elias\' claws hit the air. Leland transformed into his white wolf form.

The two of them shot at each other and clashed punches and made a huge commotion on the palace grounds.  The lycans who were watching stepped back gradually and widened the circle.

Leland grabbed Elias\' wrist and pulled him very hard. Elias\'s body was pulled up and then slammed into the ground very hard, making the ground seem to shake.

In a swift motion, Elias grabbed Leland\'s leg, got up, and threw the white wolf towards the palace walls.  At the moment in midair, Leland turned his body and landed smoothly on the ground.

Seeing Elias\'s resistance to Leland\'s pressure and attacks, the lycans who had doubted their Alpha\'s abilities were convinced again. The fight was still going on and over time their movements were accelerating.

Elias raised his paw to hit Leland\'s face but the man shifted and kicked Elias\' leg, making the black fur wolf fall to its knees with both hands resting on the ground the next second Leland kicked his butt, making his nose really kiss the ground.

The lycans who saw this tried to hold back their laughter. If they laughed and it turned out that Elias won the duel, Elias would not spare their lives.

Elias who felt embarrassed and humiliated became very angry. He gave off a strong killing aura.  Leland remained in his position, watching Elias who was trying to stand back up.

Elias looked at Leland with a heart filled with anger. Despite realizing that Leland was stronger, he wouldn\'t let his pride as an Alpha crumble in front of the lycans and humans alike.

He attacked Leland with all his strength.

Explosions accompanied by shards of earth flying in all directions occurred every time Elias\' claws hit the ground.

In an instant, the courtyard was filled with holes. All the Lycans around them moved away to avoid the effects of Elias\' attack.  To counter Elias\'s charges, Leland increased his power. The auras of the two Alphas were extremely pressing. Many people chose to go as far from the duel arena as possible because the aura seemed to be crushing their heads.

Elias smacked his claws into Leland\'s face but Leland shifted his position and stabbed Elias in the stomach with his claws. At the same time, Elias hit Leland\'s temple with his elbow.

Blood ran down Elias\' stomach, while Leland\'s head buzzed for a moment.
