The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 10 Rouges
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
After we had some breakfast, we go in to an amusement park.
“What rides do you want to try Kiddo?” I asked Matthew.
He looked around and pointed the rides he wanted. I chuckled when he pointed the Ferris wheel. At his young age, he wanted to try something h*ard, he’s indeed brave.
I kneel down in front of him.
“Are you sure, Matthew? Do you know that thing is too high? Are you afraid of heights?” I asked him.
He shook his head.
“No aunt, I’m not afraid of heights.” Oh? That’s impressive for his age. I looked at his mom.
“Are you letting him?” I asked her.
I can see fear in her eyes, it looks like she doesn’t want him to try that ride. So bad of me, why I even asked him what rides he wanted to try.
“Are you really sure honey? It’s scary like your aunt said.” Matthew shakes his head again.
“No, Mommy I’m sure!” He exclaimed. Amanda looked at me, so we stared in to each other.
I nodded at her, she let out a sigh before nodding back.
“Okay Honey.”
Matthew quickly smiled and hug his mom and then hug me too.
“Let go now kiddo and we’ll going to go to that ride.” I told to him and tapped his back. He let go off me and then smiled once again.
“Shall we go?” Amanda asked us.
“Shall we.” I answered and started walking.
“Wait for me here, I’ll get tickets.” Amanda calmly told to us.
“Okay, Matthew come closer to me.” He quickly obeyed what I said.
“I will go now, this will be quick.” I nodded my head.
I watched her going away and when she’s gone in my eyes, I carry Matthew and go the nearest chair to seat.
While waiting for her, I looked around and observe. Most of the persons I saw were teenagers, this is their hang out place huh.
I group of men walk towards to our direction, they were grinning from ear to ear.
“Look, we have human here.” One of them said.
I just ignored them and just hold Matthew.
“We’re referring you!” One of them exclaimed. That’s annoying, I looked at them and glared. They looked like gangster in my eyes, a low class precisely. By their scents, I know they are werewolf in delta class.
Just a member of this pack.
I put Matthew down behind me and stand up straight.
“Did you need something?” I asked them seriously.
All of them laugh from what I said, what’s so funny about that?
“I see, this human had some guts.” A human, why are they underestimating human’s capability?
“Are you all here just to bully me? Don’t you all have any manners?”
“We don’t understand why a human is here, hmm. Maybe you just sneak out?” Oh, really?
“Are you all had any reason to do this? Or you guys just want to have fun?” I asked seriously. I really don’t want when they are just doing this for no reason.
They all fell silent because of my question, I see, they are doing this for fun.
“Leave.” I seriously ordered them.
One of them went closer to me and hit my forehead with the paper he was holding, a small smirk from in my lips. Did he just hit me?
“You dare to ordered us? What? What are you? Our queen? Don’t dream too much human.”
I turned my back on them and looked at Matthew who is innocently looking at me.
“Close you eyes and cover your ear, Kiddo.” I gently told to him. Even if he’s confused, he did what I told her.
I caress her cheeks and kissed his forehead before I looked at the group of men who are grinning at me, devilishly.
I let out a sigh and sign the man who just hit me a while ago to come closer.
“Do you know what I hate the most?” I asked him.
“What?” he challenged me.
I see they had the guts too, what if they knew I’m their future queen? Are they still going to treat me this way? Well, I doubt that.
“I hate being hit without any valid reason.” I answered venomously.
He laughed devilishly because of what I said.
“Look guys! She said she hate being hit, she even said that in my face.” I just blankly stared at them, they failed to here my warn. Okay then…
I looked directly in the eyes of the man who just hit me. They gave me choice to do.
‘Hit your friend in front of me.’ I ordered in his mind.
This is only the third time I used this ability again, I have this rare ability to manipulates someone’s mind.
His eyes become red which mean I entered his mind already, suddenly he hit the person who is near at him. All of them was shocked on what he did, while me I grinned secretly.
He punched all of them so h*ard without any valid reason. I sat down besides Matthew and put him on my lap while watching them.
Matthew was still covering his eyes and eyes was closed. When I saw all of them was lying on the ground I looked at the man again, he was still possessed by me.
‘Now, hurt yourself.’ I ordered him once again.
He nodded his head and punched himself. This is funny to watch…
His faced was covered with blood now, I stand up still carrying Matthew. I started walking away, what Amanda’s keeping so long?
“Open your eyes now, Kiddo”I told him.
He slowly opened his eyes and uncovered his eyes. He looked at me.
“What happened aunt?” He asked me. I smiled and answered ‘Nothing.’ He nodded his head.
“Harp!” I looked where that voice came from, I saw Amanda walking towards our direction.
I stopped walking and wait for her to reached us.
“What happened there?” she asked me. I glanced to the place where she pointed, the group of men who are lying on the ground, unconscious.
I shrugged my shoulder.
“I don’t know, maybe they had a simple misunderstanding.” I lied. Of course, I can’t tell to him that I just manipulated them.
“A simple misunderstanding ended up fighting each other?” she asked me.
“You know, hot tempered guys.” I answered simply.
She nodded her head in agreement, “you’re right.” She agreed.
“So, here’s our ticket. I’m sorry if I took so long, the line is also long that’s why. I don’t want to used my position so I…” I cut her off.
“It’s fine, Am.” She smiled.
“Mommy! Let’s go and ride the Ferris Wheel!” Matthew energetically exclaimed. Amanda and I chuckled.
We go towards the Ferris wheel and after the rides we laugh. It’s really fun, and surprisingly… Matthew didn’t even yelled. He’s so brave.
“Did you had fun?” I asked him.
He looked up and smiled so widely.
“Yes aunt. I really had fun, thank you,” he thanked me sincerely.
“Ow, you’re welcome Kiddo.” I replied and then smiled also.
“Are we going home now?” Amanda asked me.
“Yeah, we should. Let’s go?” I asked and lend my hand in front of her son. Matthew took my hand, so I smiled and carry him.
I looked around before I started walking, I saw the guards that was following us had the same expression in their face, cold and distant.
I wonder if they saw what happened earlier. If they did? do I need to erased their memories? Nope, I bet they don’t know what exactly happened that moment.
“Let’s go, Am.” I called her.
We walked back to the palace, and when we are on our way I felt like someone, no crap that, a group of men was watching us. Not the guard but some unfamiliar werewolves.
I stopped walking.
“Hold Matthew,” I told to Amanda, she did what I said.
“Is there any problem?” She asked me.
I shook my head.
“Nothing,” I lied. I feel the surroundings again, they were just near to us. I glanced at the guard who are following us, 10 meters away. If something bad will happen to us, they can’t protect us immediately.
What should I do…?
“Is everything’s fine, Harp?” she asked me. I looked at her, she can’t feel what I feel. I see, those werewolves are good in hiding their presence.
Unfortunately, my senses are advanced. I stopped walking and looked at her. I can’t say to her what my senses said but, I can lie at her for her to be safe.
She’s pregnant and there’s a child in her hand.
“Can you trust me?” I asked her seriously.
“Of course, I trust you. Why are you acting like this? Is there any problem?” She asked me once again.
“Yeah, everything is fine.” For now.
“Walk faster and don’t turned back.” I told her.
“Why?” she asked me.
“Just do what I told you,” they are coming… damn it.
“No…” it’s too late they are here.
Ten rouges go in front and blocked us. This is what I’m telling, all of them encircled us. I’m not shocked anymore when I saw the guard who are guarding us was already lying on the ground, lifelessly.
Amanda went closer to me and hold my hand. She looked so scared, but trying to be brave for her son.
What should I do? Do I need to show my powers now? Alright.
“I call for help,” she said to me.
“How? We’re trapped,” I asked her.
“Mind link, we are just near to the palace.” She answered, nice idea.
“Do it now, Am.”
“Alright, I’m trying…” she replied.
I looked again at the rouges in front of us, they look scary.
“I can’t mind link my husband,” she worriedly informed me. Oh gosh.
“Try to mind link your King,” I replied still looking at the rouges. I’m observing if they will attacked us or not, it seems like they were just scaring us nor observing us also.
“Mommy, they look so scary. I’m afraid Mommy,” this is what I’m telling, its easier to escape when we don’t have a child with us.
We need to protect him and ourselves.
“I can’t too, his mind was closed.” Geez, if that’s the case… what we should really do now?
I hold Amanda’s hand.
“Trust me to this one,” I told her.
“Trust to what?” she asked me.
I t*ouch Matthew’s forehead and put him into d*eep sleep.
“what did you do?” she asked me, her eyes were wide open.
“I don’t want him to watch him this bloody moment, did you really trust me?” I asked her once again.
“You’re scaring me, Harp.” I hold her hand.
“I hope you’ll forgive me.” As I said that, my eyes became dark red, like crimson. I’m letting Venice to take control my body.
In just one snap, all of the rouges in the area were lying on the ground, bathing with their own blood.
I drop the heart of the last rouge I k*ill on the ground and looked at Amanda who is looking at me with shocked in her eyes. She can’t believe what she just witnessed.
“You’re…” she paused and took a d*eep breath.
“You’re a vampire.” She finally said, nope I’m not, I’m a tribid…
“After witnessing that… can you still accept me as your friend Amanda?” I asked her.
She stared at me for a few minutes before nodding her head. My heart felt so warmed at her simple gesture. She’s a true friend. My face turned back in to normal state, the same as my claw.
I walk towards her direction and hug her side because she’s carrying Matthew.
“I’m sorry for lying Amanda, I just… I just wanted to protect you.” I sincerely said and cry on her shoulder.
“It’s fine harp, I know you have valid reason to lie.” I’m really lucky to have her as my friend.
“There’s one thing you should know, Am.” I told her.
“Yes, I am listening.” I took a d*eep breath before I talked.
“I’m a tribid.”
She confusedly looked at me.
“A tribid?” she asked. I nodded my head.
“Yes, I have a Vampire, Witch and a Werewolf blood.” I answered. I saw her lips parted.
“What? You’re the myth?” she asked me in disbelief. I nodded once again.
“Yeah…” I paused and hold her hand.
“But promise me, Am. No one will knew this except us. I don’t want to put you and this place in danger, I don’t want to repeat what happened in my former pack. So, promise me… help me to keep this secret.”
Slowly, she nodded her head.
“Alright I will.” She promised.
