The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 47 Chance and Change
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
After a couple of hours, we reached the palace peacefully without getting any trouble on the way. Amanda hug me upon seeing me.
“How is it?” she asked me. I smiled and tapped her bag while pulling off into the hug.
“I’ll tell later.” I answered. There are so many things I wanted to tell to her.
She nodded her head and smiled too.
“Glad to see you back, your highness.” She greeted to my mate.
He just nodded his head. How rude, I gave him a warning look.
“Yeah, good to be back Amanda.” He answered that made me grin. Good. Amanda’s lips slightly parted because of what she saw.
“Did he just replied back?” Amanda asked in my mind. I glanced at her and nodded my head.
“That’s great, what happened to him?” that’s what I’m asking in my mind too. What happened to him? why he become soft and submissive.
“Don’t know too, we will talk later before he noticed that there’s something wrong to the both of us.” I said and cut the mind link.
“Well, Amanda. I’ll go ahead now, I wanted to take some nap.” I said and yawned. Dang, sleeping while we ae on the way is not enough.
She nodded and hug me one more time.
“We will meet two o’clock this afternoon.” She whispered.
“Okay, see you later.” I whispered back.
When she let go of me, I looked at my mate.
“Don’t you have another work to do?” I asked him. he just stared at me, I guess he had. He’s the Alpha King after all. As the Alpha King, you have so much responsibility to fulfil.
A few seconds later, he nodded his head.
“I have but… I wanted to see you sleep before I go.” Eh? Is that necessary?
I shook my head.
“Go ahead now, I won’t going to leave anyway.” I replied. He let out a d*eep sigh before nodding his head.
“Alright then, see you later today.” As he said that, he turned his back on us.
I just shrugged my shoulder when he vanished in my sight.
“I’m leaving now too.” I said to Amanda. She nodded her head.
“Alright, have a good nap.” She said and then smiled.
I nodded as well before I started to move my feet. Geez, where should I go? Into my room or to our room?
Maybe in my room. He can’t stop me from sleeping there.
As soon I got there, I opened the door but I failed to open it. My eyebrow furrowed because of what happened. I tried to open it again but it still didn’t open.
Do someone locked my room? I took a d*eep breath and bite my lower lips. It looks like I need to sleep on the other room.
Okay fine. I marched towards to our room and opened the door. And hell yeah, it does open. Geez, why did they locked my room?
As soon I got in, I look around. I can’t help but to remember the first time I entered into this room. How he mated to another girl even if he found me already.
Thinking of it made my heart skip. You can’t blame me for not trusting him easy, he hurt me before, he made me feel that I’m useless.
I inhaled d*eeply and set aside that thought. Why I’m in pain? I don’t have any feelings with him. I don’t f*uc*king care if he’s f*uc*king some girls. I shouldn’t mind it right? Because I’m not here to make it up with him. I’m here to know the reason why the bond didn’t fade after rejecting me.
And also, I’m here to know the answer of the questions in my mind.
I walked towards the bed and lay down there. I just stared on the ceiling while thinking about life, hoping that later, I fall asleep. A after a few hours later, I can’t still sleep.
I sat down on the bed and sigh. Why I can’t sleep? Maybe, I should get out of this room now. What time is it? I glanced on the digital clock on the table near to the bed.
Twelve thirty-five in the afternoon. I still have plenty of time before Amanda and I’s meet up. But I think we can meet right now? That’s a great idea.
But before that, I need to take a bath first. A few hours had passed and I’m f*uc*king ready now.
One fifteen, earlier than the expected time. I walk out in to our room and walked towards Amanda’s room.
I was about to knock on the door when it suddenly opened. It’s Lance. He stopped moving when he saw me.
“Do you need something, queen?” he asked me.
“Call me Harper please.” I told him, he nodded his head.
“Okay harper.” I smiled.
“is Amanda’s here?” I asked him. He shook his head, “No, she leaved a moment ago.” He answered.
“Do you know where did she go?” I asked again.
“yeah, I knew. She’s in the kitchen. She skipped her lunch so I told her to go there.” He replied. Oh, I see. I am too, I didn’t take my lunch yet.
“Thanks for the info, I’m leaving now.”
“My pleasure.” He answered back. I nodded and take my leave.
“Hold on.” He stopped me so I looked back.
“Yes?” I asked him. He got out of the room and walked closer to me.
“The king said that he won’t come home tonight.” He informed me.
“Why?”
“Too much work, but that’s not what I’m going to say to you. Can you go to his office tonight? Give him a proper dinner.” He said that made me slightly caught off guard. Isn’t he talking a proper meal?
Lance smiled when he saw my expression.
“He’s the Alpha King, he’s really busy. He wanted everything to be perfect, he’s a workaholic person. He’s skipping his meal every time, so since that you’re here. It’s your responsibility to take care of him.” I’ve become silent because of what he said. That’s the role of the queen. Taking car of the king and the whole kingdom.
“Believe me, you’re the only one who can tame him. You’re his mate, his other half, his whole world.” I almost laughed. His whole world? Dang, that was the funniest words that I ever heard.
“I know you won’t believe it now, but please harper… Give him another chance to prove himself to you. I’m not saying this because I’m his friend. This is solely my opinion and I know what is truth.” He said and then tapped my shoulder.
“Yes, he rejected and hurt you before. But, if a person is willing to change, he will change. Even if it’s just quick.” As he said that, he smiled and entered to their room again.
I left alone in front of the door dumbfounded. Somehow, he’s right.
