Alpha King’s Special Soulmate

THEME: Mixed feelings

DONIA KINGDOM

(Alpha King Sky’s Point Of View)

No one has the right to call my mate beautiful! Irresistible! He should be checking her out! Or even be alone with her! Without knowing I found myself knocking on the door. That must be an impulse from my wolf and it was too late to turn back and leave.

“Who could it be?” Mia whispered.

“Stay back while I check.” Cain replied.

I heard the sound of sword being withdrawn out if it’s initial place.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Maybe it is the theta or an iota wolf trying to…” The door opened up before she could finish her words. Cain pointed his sword at me but soon dropped it when his eyes met mine.

“Oh! Alpha king Sky…” He bowed. Mia stood up from the bed, came to stand beside Cain and she bowed her head too.

“Rise.” I instructed.

Mia’s emerald green eyes shone brilliantly as she looked at me. “You shouldn’t be here.” I said to Cain.

“I can’t leave my alpha alone because it is not safe.” Cain answered

“This place is guarded by trained warriors and no one would dare come in to hurt her.” I said, trying to calm myself.

“I know it is guarded but-”

I cut him off. “I want you to go back to the room I asked my men to prepare for you. And I’ll like to have some minutes with your alpha.”

Cain exchanged glances with Mia. “Cain, you can go ahead. I can handle it.” She said.

He nodded. “Good night.”

She hummed a response before he walked away. “Can I come in?” I requested

“Yes.. yes.. yes… please come in.” Mia stuttered while she stepped aside for me to walk in.

“How are you feeling?” I asked

“I am alright. And.. and.. th… tha.. nk you.. for giving your men the orders to tend to me and my pack men.” She answered

“You don’t need to thank me, I am just doing what is needed to be done.” My voice was hard and a stern look displayed on my face

Mia fiddled with her fingers as she stood at the door. “Please.. you can.. take a seat.” She gestured to the single couch in the room and I went to sit on it.

“Do the same too…” I said. Mia walked closer and sat on the bed slowly.

My wolf jumped in excitement as I took in the features of our mate. Her long hair swept over her shoulder, rosy cheeks as my eyes did a slow crawl to her lips. I snapped out of the thought of kissing my mate.

Mia didn’t look up at me. “I.. I… don’t really know how to…” She paused and sighed. “I know it is really hard for you to accept someone like me as your mate because of the… Erm.. Erm..” She stopped again

“Your pack and my kingdom aren’t on good terms.” I said.

“My father has done so many bad things to you and your kingdom.” She nodded in agreement.

“And you want to right his wrongs?” I blurted.

Mia raised an eyebrow. “How do you know that?”

I shouldn’t have said that to her. “I.. I..” I paused to think of what to say.

“Perhaps.. how long have you been standing outside the ward?” She asked.

I cleared my throat. “Not too long.”

“So.. so.. so.. you heard everything.”

I nodded and readjusted my position. “Your father didn’t send the spies?”

Mia nodded. “Yes, I am very sure my father has never sent any spy since your father’s death.”

I screwed up my face. “So who has been sending those men since the last few years of my reign?”

Mia rolled her eyes but slowly and it kind of looked strange. “It.. It.. is your duty to find out as athe alpha king.” She answered.

“It is….” I stopped talking when I noticed the way she kept adjusting on the bed like she was uncomfortable.

“Are you alright?” I asked with concern in my tone.

Mia stood up from the bed. “Yes.. Yes.. I am..” Her voice trailed off.

I wanted to go to her when she shut her eyes and tried to sit back on the bed but I stopped myself. Soon MIa staggered and I went to her immediately. It is normal to care for my mate.

“Are you ill?” I demanded.

“No, no.. I am alright. I.. I.. just feel a little dizzy… that’s all.” I helped her sit back on the bed.

“Thank you.” Mia muttered.

I let out a sigh of relief. I don’t want to think that she really has some kind of illness. “I am a hybrid. And having the blood of an alpha werewolf and red witch weakens my system whenever I have one of my visions. My mom died when I was just two years old. She was diagnosed of a rare incurable disease that affects red witches.” She explained her maternal background to me. She was acting so different from when we met in the throne hall.

“I am sorry about that.” I muttered.

“No, you don’t have to sorry.” Mia held on to the necklace on her around her neck. “My dad gave me this locket on my 10th birthday. There is a picture of my mom in it.” She opened it and stared at the locket.

“I have a locket too, my dad gave it to me the day he passed his alpha title to me.” No! I shouldn’t be soft and be having this conversation with her. We are mates but I don’t want to accept her.

“I am sorry about your mom, I know my father -”

“He ripped out her heart at the war ground.” I clenched my fist and with the feeling of anger rising within in.

Mia avoided my burning gaze. “I am sorry.”

I snorted. “Sorry won’t bring her back.”

Mia looked up at me. “But what about…” She paused.

“What do you have to say?!” I gritted.

“Huh?” She looked away from me. “Nothing… nothing.. I don’t have anything else to say. But we are leaving tomorrow at dawn. Thank you for taking us in.”

I shook my head and walked to the door. We should never meet again. I’ll have to act like I haven’t found my mate.

“Wait my lord!” She stopped me before I could walk out but I didn’t turn to face her.

“It is true that sorry won’t bring back your mother. And I don’t blame you for the hatred you bear towards me and my pack because of my father’s deeds. But still I want to apologize on his behalf, I am sure he regretted his actions.” Mia paused probably expecting me to say something but nothing came from me. I don’t want to have a conversation with her.

“My father is terribly ill.. and I don’t think he is.. he is..” Mia paused again.

“I don’t think he is gonna make it. He barely talks to anyone, I only communicate with me with my powers by reading his mind. He is dying slowly and I feel so helpless knowing that my powers can’t save him.” She sobbed out loudly all of a sudden.

Then I turned to face her. Is she pretending so I can pity her? Or she mean what she is saying? I couldn’t tell.

“So please my lord, I am willing to take on whatever punishment you are to give him as long as you forgive him. He needs your forgiveness to be able to rest in peace when he dies.” She walked up to me slowly. “Please.” Her eyes held a pleading look.

I looked away from her. She is sincere but I can’t believe it. She must be good at playing victim and getting people to pity her. “Have a good night rest alpha Mia.” Then I made my way out of the room because I didn’t know what to say to her.

She wants me to forgive her father and punish her for her father’s deeds. Is that even fair?! But why am I suddenly feeling pity for alpha Zion after everything he has done to me? She must have cast a spell on me.

‘If her father dies and you also reject her, that would be too much for her to bear. Our mate looks pitiful.’ My wolf said in a sad tone.
