The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 67 FUN
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
Seeing him having a h*ard time on catching fish gives me a chill. It’s been a few minutes since he started catching but until now there’s only one fish he got. Take note, it’s kinda small and won’t be enough for the two of us.
I can see that he’s getting furious and annoyed. And that’s only made me even amused. Catching fish won’t be a problem to me, I can control water so it would be just easy to catch. But since he’s here, I’ll let him do the work.
I just… I just don’t expect him to be this, umm how could I describe him? Ah, to be this slow. I really expect him to get fish at the river easily, without exerting to much effort. But I guess, every person has its own limitation and weaknesses.
“Do you need some help?” I yelled to teased him. He stopped what he is doing and glanced at me.
“No! I can manage!” he yelled back before he dived in the water to try catching again. Determined but stubborn, he doesn’t want any help. I shook my head and walked closer to the water.
“What are you doing? Get back there!” He shouted when he saw me coming. I just ignored him and complete go down the water too.
“Go back there, Harper. I can do it,” I raised an eyebrow. Really? I think he’s struggling.
“Come on, you can’t even catch good and big fish for our lunch and besides, I’m really hungry so let me help.” I answered back.
“As what you said, I can’t even catch. How much more on you?” I slowly looked at him. Is he challenging me?
“Well, watch me.” As said that I dived in the water. Using my ability secretly, I able to catch a not so small, not so big fish in just a few seconds.
“How… I mean wow. You did that?” He said in disbelief as he saw me holding the fish. I just grinned at him and go back to the land.
“Yeah, obviously. Don’t just stare at me, back to work.” I demanded. Instead of doing what I said, he moved closer to me.
“How did you do that?” he asked while following me.
“I think you have your own mind, think how I did that.” I answered back without looking at him. I felt him stopped walking so I glanced at him.
“What?” I asked while rising an eyebrow. He shook his head and “Nothing.” but I heard him murmured mysterious.
I just shake my head and turned my back on him with a hideous smile on my face. Damn, I found this situation amusing.
“Hold on!”
I didn’t stopped walking, instead I moved faster.
“Wait! Don’t run from me!” My eyes slightly widened when he started to chase me. Hell no, “Stay away form me!” I exclaimed. Oh gosh, he’s really running after me. I hope he’ll stumble on the water for him not to catch me.
“Harper!” he warned but I never stopped. Why I’m running anyway? I didn’t do anything but I guess, he will ask me something that I don’t like to answer.
“Harper!” he repeated.
“No, let’s talk later!” I yelled back. I was about to get off the water but he grabbed my hand and pulled me back. Because of the sudden force, I let the fish go. Geez, the fish escaped.
“What the heck?!” I caught the fish easily but I let go of it quickly. And it is all because of him. I glared at him.
“Sorry about that,” he quickly apologized when he saw my deathly stares. I crossed my arm on my chest while still looking at him, seriously.
“What do you need?” I asked demandingly, clearly not amused on what he just did. Even if I didn’t exert a lot of effort to catch the fish, still, it’s a pity that the fish escape. I’m quite hungry now, geez.
“Please don’t look at me like you wanted to murder me. I’m jus curious how did you do that?” I raised an eyebrow.
“Do what?” I asked innocently. This is funny, he’s confused.
“What you did a while ago,” I didn’t talk, just looking at him.
“Harper?!” An amused smile crept into my lips.
“Did particularly what?” I repeated, clearly avoiding the question. It’s time to annoy him. He let out a d*eep breath and gave me a don’t act innocently look. This time I can’t hold back myself but to laugh. Damn, he’s so funny when he’s confused and curious.
“Come on, it’s a natural thing okay. Anyone can catch fish like that.” I said while shaking my head smilingly. He narrowed down his eyes on me, he doesn’t believe what is said?
“You know what? Forget about it. Let’s catch fish again because I let go the first one, well, thanks to you.” He’s still looking at me. I clapped my hand two times in front of his face.
“Hurry up, I’m starving. Don’t you have any conscience, huh?” He blinked twice and sigh.
“Okay, okay. But we will talk later,” I just nodded to reassure his confused soul.
“Yeah, yeah.” As I said that, an evil plan came into my mind. I pulled him down to the water without any warning. I was laughing h*ard when I saw his expression as we got up. He’s probably murdering me in his mind.
“What was that?” he asked with a little annoyance in his voice.
“Ah, you’re no fun. Let’s do the work for us to go back at the cabin.” I said and gave him a smile, a genuine one. The irritation in his face quickly vanished like something good happened.
“Okay.” He replied and smiled too. It’s turning one when we’re done catching fish for our late lunch. Geez, I can’t believe he’s bad at this matter. He just caught three or four fish? So weak.
We are both w*et while walking in the forest back to the cabin. If I’m a human, I’m probably freezing in cold now. It’s kinda cold because winter is coming. I must say, winter is not my cup of tea. I prefer autumn nor rain season than winter.
Winter will freeze you too death, while in summer, it’s too hot. The sun will burn you alive.
“A penny of your thought?” He asked after a long silence. I glanced at him, he’s not looking at me but on our way.
“Nothing important,” I answered shortly. This time, he spares me a glance too.
“Can I ask something?” he asked with a glint of seriousness in his voice.
“Hmm, go ahead.”
“If I didn’t rejected you five years ago, would you accept me?” A question that lost myself into a d*eep thought.
