The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 81 The Coronation Day
Harper Alizah Grace’s POV
“Are you nervous?” One question come across my ear coming from behind me. I don’t know myself if I’m nervous or just excited, but I feel good right now. The day has come, the coronation. A moment by now, they will know me as their queen.
I admitted, I really don’t expect this to happen. It feels like, just yesterday, I’m living alone, then met Amanda, then found my mate and got rejected. But now, everything changes, I can’t say that I forgive him completely because the pain caused by the rejection is still in my mind and heart, it will h*ard to forget.
So h*ard. I wish I can erase my memory but I can’t, although I have the power to alternate and erase someone’s memory but that power of mine can’t be used within myself, that was the limitation of my power.
“Harper? Are you alright?” I blinked twice when I heard Amanda’s voice. Oh, I got carried away with my thoughts again. I looked on the mirror in front of me, there, I saw Amanda, she’s swearing emerald green gown. She looked ravishing and awesome.
I nod my head, “Yeah, perfectly fine. I’m just a little nervous.” I answered and looked also in my reflection. I was wearing the gown Zandea and I bought a few days ago. I felt that Amanda placed her hand on my shoulder to calm me down.
It’s somehow helping, Am I really sure about this one? If I continue this, there’s no turning back. Being the queen is as h*ard as becoming a slave, why I said that? Because as a queen, you’ll have the responsibility to served the werewolves as they served you.
Being a queen, is easy as may it look but it’s not. You won’t own your own time anymore, you’ll be trapped into a responsibility that you need to fulfill. Be responsible to every decision you’ll making, as possible, don’t think just about your own sake, but to everyone.
But I guess, I can’t stop this now, I need to continue. The Coronation ceremony has been spread like a wild fire all over the werewolf world. It’s a disgrace to me and to the kingdom if I’ll quit now. I’m not a coward, I’ll shall face this.
“Calm down, Harp. Everything will be just fine.” I let out a sign and nodded. Right, everything is alright. This day will end peacefully.
Amanda and I looked on the door way when we heard someone knocked on the door three times to get our attention. The door was opened, there, we saw Lance who was leaning on the door frame. He looked greet in black tuxedo.
“Excuse us, queen, but may we have time with my wife?” Lance asked in polite way. Geez, what is he doing?
“Crap the act Lance, you’re still written in my black list for fooling me a few weeks ago. And yes, of course, Amanda can go with you.” He paled on what I said but later on, he let out a forced smile to cover up his guilt and fear.
“I’m sorry, really sorry but… isn’t a good thing? Because of what I did, you and the king is in good terms now?” He reasoned out. I raise an eyebrow, well, somehow, he’s right. But, it can change the fact the he tricked me.
“Nope,” I answered expressionlessly. I heard Amanda giggled beside me, so I looked at her. And in my peripheral vision, Lance was frowning because he saw his wife laughing at his situation.
“Are you happy honey?” Lance asked in serious tone. Amanda composed herself but she can’t hide the smile that was playing on her lips.
“No, hubby, I’m not.” She denied which caused Lance to narrowed down his eyes on her.
“Are you very much sure honey? Because as far I know I’m not blind to see amusement in your eyes as your friend who will be the queen was saying that I was in her black list.” Oh my, is he being serious right now? Haha, I found this situation funny too.
Amanda went closer and she just stopped when she’s right in front of him. I crossed my arm on my chest as I watched the scene in front of me. Amanda held his necktie to fix it, they were looking into each other’s eyes. Oh, seriously, right in front of me?
“I wouldn’t laugh at you, honey, you know that,” she pauses talking and smiled. “But, you were in my black list too for lying to me a few weeks ago.” She tightened the necktie in his neck. I couldn’t help but to grin when Lance cough h*ard because of what she did.
So, Amanda still haven’t forgive him yet too? Lance’s eyes softened as he looked at his wife again. “I’m sorry about that honey, but you said you forgive me already?” Amanda acted like she was shocked.
“Oh really? I said that? when?” She asked innocently. This time I can’t keep my laughter, Lance’s expression was priceless, he felt like he’s been betrayed by his own wife.
“You said it, wide and clear yesterday.” Lance said as he placed his hand on her cheeks. My lips pursed to witness their drama. Amanda raised her eyebrow, and innocently looked at him. She put her hand on his chest and slightly pushed him away.
“Nope, as what I remember, I actually didn’t say something.” She still denied. Geez, look at them.
“As what I remember, you did. You even k*issed me and say you forgive me.” Haha, this is getting interesting. I saw Amanda’s cheeks burned in embarrassment, she looked away to hide her face from her husband. Oh my, look at her haha, is she’s blushing? Does that mean, Lance was saying the truth?
“I didn’t k*iss you, you k*iss me.” She answered back in low tone, she looked like a shy cat right now. This is actually entertaining. Lance put both of his palm on Amanda’s face and guided her to look at him. Geez, they were staring into each other like they can see their souls. This two is so in love.
I’m happy for my best friend, but would they stop? Or just go away and get a room without someone else watching them? Lance was about to k*iss her but I talk to interrupt their moment. This is so bad of me, haha.
“Come on guys, I’m still here okay?” The two of them looked on my direction, oh did they really forgot that I’m still here. Oh, what love can do. Amanda blushed even more, why Lance, he composed himself and gave me a smile. I just grinned and stared at them.
“I’m sorry, Harp.” Amanda apologized.
“Haha, just fine. That’s natural to couples, just go ahead now.” I answered and glared to Lance. I saw him gulp, the Royal Gamma was afraid to what they called human queen. Quite amusing.
Oh well, I sometimes looked scary.
“Okay, is it fine to you that you’ll be alone here?” I nodded my head. I’m fine of being alone, I’m used to that.
“It’s okay Am, go, go with your husband. I think he have something very important to say,” I said softly but glared to Lance. He laughed awkwardly, he’s been sweating h*ard. I couldn’t help but to find his expression funny.
“It’s not that important Queen. Haha, anyway, the coronation will officially start. Congratulation to you, Harper. Our queen.” Geez, being called as the queen is the weirdest thing I ever heard.
“Thank you Lance.” He nodded his head and grabbed Amanda’s hand.
“We’ll take our leave now then?” I nodded as well.
“Sure, see you two.” They bowed their head first before exiting the room, I watched their back going away. Those two is an adorable couple, they clearly love each other. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh.
“Someday, I’ll have that kind of love too.” I murmured.
“You will have it now, love.”
