The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 46 Going Back Home
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
I was looking outside the car’s window while reminiscing what happened last night. I can’t help but to be disappointed with myself. The vision still happened, one of the allies died because of that war.
“Don’t think too much about it Alizah, it’s not your fault that she died. You did what you can do.” Reenah said in my mind. No, it’s actually my fault because she died. She sacrificed herself to protect me.
Why did she do that? We’re not close enough for her to sacrifice her own life.
“Actually no, I didn’t do anything to save her even if I can do something to help her.” I replied to Reenah.
“I can say you did the right thing but… Alizah, you’re keeping a secret. A secret that if everyone will discover, it will cause a huge war.” Wendy told to me also.
I took a d*eep breath and leaned down on the backseat. I closed my eyes and think about what Wendy just said. She’s right, I didn’t help her because I can’t afford that everyone in the place will know my secrets.
And that f*uc*king guilts me, I felt like I’m such a terrible and selfish person. I let someone died in front of me.
“Don’t pity yourself, everything will be alright.” Venice also said, they were comforting me.
I was about to talk back when a person suddenly asked me.
“Are you okay?” I slowly opened my eyes and looked at him. He was looking at me worriedly. I gave him a small nod and then averted my eyes.
I sigh and bite my lower lip. I don’t have the mood to talk, even him didn’t do something to stop the lady from stabbing Selena. What if… Selena didn’t save me? will he going to save me? I guess not.
“A penny of your thought?” he asked me again.
“Why you did not save her?” I asked him directly.
In my peripheral vision, I saw him looked at me. he opened his mouth to talk but he closed it again. What? He doesn’t really have the intention to save her? Nor me?
“She’s still a witch, she supposed not to be here. But then, I’m pleased that she used he own life to protect you.” He said that made me look at him.
Does he had the thought of k*ill*ing Selena even if she helped him? them?
He leaned back comfortably on the seat and closed his eyes.
“You’re going to k*ill her after what she did?” I asked him seriously. I really don’t understand him, why would he execute her?
“A witch will always a witch, even if she helped us to defeat all the rouges around this place, it won’t change the fact that she came from the family of witches. The mastermind of this mess, precisely.” He said and closed his eyes. My eyebrow furrowed because of what he said.
What kind of mind set he had? I found his words a bullshit. Does he even think before saying that? He’s being unreasonable and irrational.
“Witches are vicious, they are greedy and thirsty of power.” Woah, wait. Is he generalizing witches to be the same?
“That’s a little hurtful.” Wendy said in my mind. Yeah, it’s offensive.
“Are you telling me that… witches are aggressive?”
He gazed at me and nodded his head. What the hell? He even confirmed it.
“Yeah, so stay the hell away from them.” My fist turned to white. I’m not really pleased on what he said. Witches are aggressive ha? All creature is aggressive, even the mortals.
“You know what? Fix your personality.” That’s all I say because if I push any further, I can’t able to control myself but to murder him.
He’s annoying as f*uc*k, okay, he doesn’t know that I’m a witch but does he have the right to insult us? Aggressive huh?
Were not aggressive, well some of us but not all.
“Are you mad at me?” he asked me. I didn’t answer him instead I looked outside the car’s window again.
“Hey, talk to me. What’s wrong? Did I say something that you don’t like?” Ah, his guts to say that. I still ignored him.
I crossed my arm on my chest and bite my inner lips. Suddenly, he grabbed my arm and pulled me closer to him.
I tried to push him before he can hug me but he just captured both of my hand. I looked sideward to avoid his gave but he made me look at him.
“What are you so angry about? I really don’t have any idea why you’ve become grumpy suddenly.” He said softly. Am I too, I don’t know why I’m annoyed with him?
Is it because he didn’t help Selena or he insult us? the witches. But then, I thought… both of it. I sigh and looked directly in his eyes.
I still remember the way he treated me before, so bad and cruel. But now? It’s the opposite. He’s too good to be true. How can be a someone change so quickly? From vicious to a good and loving person?
It’s really making me wonder, why he changed.
“Tell me, what did I do wrong?” he asked me once again.
I shook my head, anyway, we should drop that subject. I can’t tell him that I got offended by what he said.
“Nothing, I’m not mad at you. I’m just tired.” I answered. Well partly true, I’m really tired and wanted to sleep. He looked intently at me, he’s making sure that I’m saying the truth.
He let out a d*eep sigh and let go of my hand.
“Alright then, have a rest while we are on the way.” He said, I nodded my head. I move my body on the opposite side of the seat for me to sleep more comfortably but before I can go too far, he pulled me back.
“Just sleep on my shoulder, I won’t mind it.” He said and gave me a small smile.
Oh, here we go again the clingy but demanding mate. Geez. I just obey what he did, I don’t want to create another argument with him.
As I rested my head on his shoulder, I closed my eyes and tried to sleep.
We are going back in the palace now, the war in the Rivermoon pack was over. A moment ago, we said our farewells to them.
“We are very pleased and thankful for the aid you have given to us, your highness. You’re a great king, you deserve to rule the whole werewolf world.” Jiro said in gladness.
“And also, to you Queen, Princess and Royal gamma, and all of the warriors who helped us to defeat all of the villains in this Pack. We are showing our greatest gratitude, thank you very much.” As he said that, he kneeled down on the ground, the same as all the members and officials of the pack.
“Please all rise, it’s our responsibility to help the packs under the kingdom. So, don’t worry about it. Just be careful and protect this pack. Don’t let this thing happened again.” Zandea said, all of them rise and smiled so widely.
“We will Princess.” Jiro and Ofelia answered. I just remained silent, I don’t have anything to say anyway.
“Since the war is over, we are get going now.” I heard Hiro also said. The Alpha of this pack nodded his head and smiled.
“Sure, please have a good trip.” Hiro just nodded his head.
“Shall we go now?” he asked my mate.
“Yes.” As he said that, he put his hand on my back and lead me to the car.
He didn’t talk so much when someone is around, and when he talked… it’s so damn cold and serious. He’s still the Alpha King I know eh?
