The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 85 Forgiven
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
“I’ll just going to find my husband and son, I’ll see you later.” Amanda said while looking around the place. There’s a lot of persons inside the venue now, it’s crowed precisely. It will be h*arder to spot someone you knew now.
I looked at her and nodded, “Sure, I’ll go and find Zach too.” She nodded head as well. “Oh, you are calling him by his name now?” I bit my inner lips to suppress my smile.
“Yes, It’s not a bad thing, right?”
“Of course not, I’m just a little shock upon hearing you say his for the first time.”
“This is all new to me, the same as you all. Go ahead now, Am.” She nodded and smile again.
“Okay, see you around.” She waved her hand on me first before completely turning her back on me. When I’m all alone, I couldn’t help but to feel a little lonely even if I’m surrounded by them. I let out a sigh and looked around.
Taking a d*eep breath, I started to move. Every person who recognized me, bowing their head as a sign of respect. I just nodded my head to acknowledge them.
“Look who I met right now. The human queen is here.” I stopped walking when I heard someone said that. A human? I turned around to see who said it. I secretly check her from head to toe, I can’t deny the fact that she’s very beautiful.
A powerful aura was surrounding her too, if she’s just a normal person, she wouldn’t dare to call me a human queen. I guess, she got some power and authority too in this place.
Instead of showing irritation, I smiled at her.
“Yes, you’re right Ms. —”
“Keriza Radwell.” That’s it? She won’t introduce herself like who is she? She won’t brag herself? Because I can see that she’s proud, confident and brave kind of woman.
“Ms. Radwell.” I acknowledge her. She chuckled and stared at me, seriously.
“I guess, you are wondering who I am to call you that way. I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to call you that way…” I wanted to raised an eyebrow but I didn’t.
“No worries.” I said shortly.
“Oh, you sound so serious. Spencer hated human, and I’m shocked to know that he’s into you now.” My brow furrowed at what he said. What did she mean? I know in the first place that he hated human so why she’s telling this to me now?
Trying to confuse me? Make me upset?
“Ops, I’m sorry again. It slipped on my mouth. But to be honest here, I know him for so long. And you,” she pointed me. What?
“You’re not really his type. But I guess, everything can change. So, just a piece of advice, darling, you’re still young, there’s a lot of things you might don’t understand.” She moved closer to me.
“Spencer is unpredictable. There’s a big possibility that he might just hurt you, not now but in the near future.” She’s calling her spencer, I guess, they were really close. But he doesn’t mention her to me. This gave me a realization that… I don’t still know him.
And she’s right, He’s unpredictable, can break my heart again. I bit my inner lips and remain calm. I should show her that I’m not affected at all. Who know if she’s telling the truth or just lying?
“Anyway, nice to meet you, queen. I’ll see you around,” she raised her wine glass as she left me alone in my place. I just stared at her until she vanished in my eyes.
Yeah, I’ll see you around.
“What are you doing here, love?” I quickly calm down when a pair of arms embraced me from behind. I hold his hand on my tummy and slowly faced her.
He looked so handsome as always.
“Are you alright?” he asked me worriedly when he saw my reaction. I can’t deny the fact that Keriza’s words made me upset. Taking a d*eep breath and sigh, “Yes, I’m alright. Just a little nervous.” I half-lied.
He looked unconvinced but didn’t asked anymore question and just hug me.
“I don’t know what happened and I’ll let this pass for the mean time. We’ll talk about this later, ok?” I nodded my head and hug him even more.
Doubt starting to seize my system. Keriza was right, there’s a large possibility that he might just hurt me. That’s making me even more upset, confuse and so lost.
I’m starting to think, what if something really bad will happen this night? How will I manage it?
“You’re hugging me so tight, like you are afraid to let me go. Is everything alright, Alizah?” I looked up him. No, everything is not alright, but I’m trying too. I wanted to keep this thought by myself for the mean time. I nodded my head and t*ouch his cheek.
“Yes, everything is cool. Let’s go?” He nodded his head and smiled widely.
“Sure love, come on.” I let go of him and smile. He hold my hand and slung it on his arm.
“Everything will be alright, love.” He whispered in my ear. I closed my eyes and nodded, I guess so.
We started to roamed around the venue.
“Greetings, our king and queen.” All of them greeted as soon they saw us. I just smile, smile, all over again.
“Let’s go over there?” He pointed the place where the first time I saw him. Memories bring back, I glanced at him, he’s waiting for my answer.
“Sure.” I answered. We go up there together, as soon we are arrived there. I let out a sigh and looked below. I can see them all from our place. This is the reason why he found me easily that time.
“I wanted to be honest with you.” He suddenly said.
“Honest about what?” I asked without looking at him. I felt him move closer to me and hold my hand.
“Five years ago…” what about five years ago? I asked in my mind.
“You are the most beautiful woman I ever seen. Since the moment you step you foot on my territory, I just kept my eyes on you.” I chuckled because of what he said and decided to look at him. He was staring at me too.
“I know what will you say next,” I said amusedly. It’s very odd that I’m not thinking negatively now, I’m not hurt too even if we are reminiscing the past where pain and hatred all started.
“State your guess,” he said and sign me to say it.
“You just kept your eyes on me but everything changes when you learn that I’m your mate and I’m just a human.” That’s the truth and I’m fine with that now. That’s the past, this is our new beginning. He nodded his head.
“Yes, but don’t get me wrong. I already regret it, I’m so dumb that time.” I chuckled again.
“I’m glad you know that.” I joked. He laughed and pulled me closer to him.
“I’m so sorry for hurting you, love.” He said while hugging me from my back again.
“Forgiven.”
“Really? You forgive me for real?” I nodded my head and face him.
“Why? You don’t want to be forgiven?” I said while raising an eyebrow.
“Of course, I wanted. Thank you for giving me a second chance.” he said in full of gladness.
“I hope you won’t just ruin the chance I have given to you.” I murmured.
“I won’t.” He promised.
I wished, but I have this thought that promises are made to be broken.
