The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 60 FlashBack
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
“Hello Miss Amanda, how can I help you today?” A man, probably in mid-forties said. Amanda happily walked closer to the man and gave him a warm smile.
“I and my newly found friend will go in the city, would you like to accompany us?” She asked him. The man glance over my direction and then later, he smiled.
“I would like too, but your father. Does he know that you’ll go there?” He asked again.
“It doesn’t matter, I know that he knew wherever I go with or without telling it,” he paused and acted like she’s whispering something.
“He got some eyes everywhere the territory, such a scary man.”
“This scary man you called my dear daughter was your father,” A man from our behind said. I looked around to see him. I might say, he’s kinda intimidating and really scary. If I’m a human, nor simply a werewolf, I’ll get intimidated by him. But nah, I fear no one, I have nothing to lose now cause’ I lose my love ones already.
No family, no parent, no pack. And no friends before but now, I found one. I hope she’ll never going to leave and avoid me when she discovers the truth. I’ll take risk, I will try to trust and care once again.
“Daddy, I thought you were at the palace?” Amanda energetically said while giving her father a hug. Her father embraced her back.
“They need my presence here, and you’re was there, I think he can manage.” I saw Amanda nodded her head and pulled away to the hug slowly.
“Oh, I see. Anyway dad, meet my new friend Harper.” My eyes slightly widened, does she need to do that? Her father gaze at my direction. I smile to cover up the shock in my face, he nodded his head.
“A human?” he asked his daughter. Why he needed to ask her when he can ask me directly?
“Yes dad, is that a bad thing?” Her father shook his head.
“Not daughter, but do you know what is the consequence of having a human friend?” There’s a consequence? I asked in my mind. I saw Amanda shakes her head.
“No, come on dad. She wont going to hurt me, she looked harmless—” he doesn’t let her finish her sentence.
“That’s not what I mean, Amanda. What I mean is if you have a human friend you will protect her by anyone. You know, she’s not like us.” Ah I get it, they look on human so low. They know human to be weak and pathetic. How good their mindset is? I think sarcastically.
Every individual should be treated quality, every person should have a rational kind oof mindset. Promote equality not discrimination.
“Of course, dad. She’s my best friend I should treat her nice and protect her with all my cost.” Her father looked pleased with her answer. He caressed her cheeks and k*issed her forehead. I suddenly missed my father, he always k*issed my forehead and embrace me.
I really wish they were still alive, I probably living so good and happy now.
“That’s right, daughter,” he paused and looked at me.
“Harper right?” I nodded my head.
“Yes, sir.”
“I’m Alfredo Cernellian, I’m pleased to meet you.” I smiled widely. He looked intimidating but he’s actually great father.
“I’m pleased to meet you too sir,” he nodded and looked at his daughter.
“You two will go somewhere else?”
“Yes dad, to the City.”
“Okay then, keep safe.” Amanda smiled even wider.
“Thanks dad, we’ll be back here tonight to join the Celebration.” He nodded his head to approved what she said.
“Alright, see you two soon. Enjoy your day ladies,” I nodded my head. Amanda once again hugged her father before we enter to the car.
“You got a nice dad,” I commented as soon we started to leave the area.
“Yeah, he’s the best father I might have but he can be the scariest. You know, I’m really afraid of him when he’s mad, like really mad.” My brow slight rose up.
“How could you say so?” I asked curiously. She faced me, “Dad is good when he’s not mad, like just normal. But when he’s angry, he’ll forget everything, he will hurt someone else he wanted to hurt. So, when he’s mad, we are avoiding him.” Ah, her father had some anger issue. That’s not normal, he can hurt his family without even knowing it.
“But, that was before. Dad is very calm now, when he’s getting mad, he’s isolating himself for him not to hurt someone.” I nodded my head. That’s good to hear.
“Anyway, I’m just curious… how did your father died? Don’t get me wrong,” I leaned back on the back seat.
“He died brutally, that’s all I can share. I don’t want to remember the past,” I answered and closed my eyes. She became silent for a mean time.
“That’s cruel and really bad, I shouldn’t ask it. I’m sorry,” she apologized. I shook my head while eyes still closed.
“No problem, you’re just curious. If I’m in your situation, I’ll will ask too.” I answered. I felt her leaned back also. We remained silent for how many minutes.
“Weird, why I can’t read your mind?” she suddenly said. I opened my eyes and look at her.
“You can’t?” I asked innocently. I know that she can’t read my mind, there’s a tall barrier that surround my mind. No one can enter no until I’ll aloud it.
“Yes, you’re the first one. Maybe, my ability won’t work with you. Cool,” I just shrugged and slightly smile.
“Anyway, harper. Where are you living now?” she asked me. I think carefully, will I tell to her? At last, I decided to say.
“In the middle of the woods, there’s a small cabin over there. The place where me and my father live,” I answered. Partly true, but we really live inside a big mansion, slash the pack house before. But, my father and I, live there too. We both don’t like spacious places like the mansion.
If he’s not the alpha, we will live peacefully and normally in this world. But, he was born to be the alpha, every individual in the pack was relying on him. Sadly, they all died because of me. I really wish I’m just a werewolf, not a tribid. Maybe… Maybe, all of them were still alive.
“Ladies, we reach our destination.” I sat properly and looked outside the car’s window. He’s right, we are at the city now.
“Great, thanks. Come on, Harper!” I nodded my head and smiled at her. The two of us went out the car.
“Will you wait us here or you’ll come with us?” she asked the man.
“I’ll come with the two of you, miss Amanda. I’ll guard, your father will k*ill me if something bad will happen to the both of you,” he stated. Amanda playfully smacked his arm.
“Surely, haha.”
