The Alpha King’s Mistake by BlackFlame
Chapter 138 (Harper Alizah Grace’s POV)
“Harper! Hold on!” I heard him called my name again but I just kept on ignoring him. I don’t know what does he need and I don’t want to know it either.
I stopped walking when he hold me into my wrist and pulled me back. “Can you stop walking? I wanted to talk to you,” Clearly. I look at him coldly. We are catching attention now, and I really don’t like it.
“I don’t know what are you doing here but can you just leave me alone? Like seriously…” Oh wait, hold on. Did he just call me with my name harper? I blinked twice, I pulled my hand on his grip.
“What did you just called me?” I asked him. He smile and took my hand, “You heard me right, I remember everything, Harper.” What? He did? Is that the reason why he’s here now? For what to make it up to me?

Isn’t it quite too late because he married Keriza? And now he remembered everything and want me back? That’s just absurd. I pulled my hand again and shook my hand.
“Something wasn’t right, okay you remembered everything now. But for now, I don’t want to hear any of your explanation…” He looked at me, unable to say anything. What? Is it because he remembers, everything will gonna be alright?
Absolutely not…
“Harper, you need to hear me right. You need to know my explanation, what really happened, just… just give me a chance. I know you’re upset, angry on what happened, but believe, I have a valid reason why,” Really?
“Yeah, I might be angry, upset or so what right now. But believe me too Zach, this is not the right moment, not the right place either to talk about that matters,” he shut his mouth down. Good, I know he understands my point.
“Than at least give me a chance to explain,” maybe I should, but not today.
“Allow me to enjoy this day, nine in the evening, sharp at my condominium. If you won’t go, you won’t have the chance to explain your side.” I said seriously.
He nodded, “I will come, thank you, Harper.” I just nod and walk away. I don’t understand myself why I said that, maybe even if I don’t want to see nor talk to him, I still deserve to know everything.
I let out a sigh, why am I acting this way anyway? I look back, I see him still standing while watching me walk away. I closed my eyes and walked back to where he was.
“Come on, I know it’s your first time coming here in human world,” I told him. He just stared at me, what?
I raised an eyebrow, “You will come or not?” He went back to his senses and nod his head.
“I will come of course, where are we going?” He asked. I… I don’t know either.
“To where our feet bring us,” I whispery said. I saw him smile on what I said.
“Nothing changed, it’s still you.” I never changed, maybe just a little.
“Don’t talk too much. If you’re thinking we’re fine now, then you’re wrong,” I said and started to walk.
“I did’t forget.” It’s not easy to forget. Time passes by, too many events will happen, some were good, some were not. We will move forward, but we will not forget, either bad or good things.
“I thought I was wrong when I saw you last night, it is you, right?” I asked him. He nodded, “It’s me, I wanted to talk to you that time but I hesitated.” That’s, so honest with him.
“Why? And why you did it now?” I asked causally. I heard him let out a sigh.
“I know last night wasn’t the right time, neither right now, but since I bump on you, I just can’t waste the opportunity.” The great King of werewolves is hesitating. Impressive, I thought he’s always right?
“Well said,” I stop walking. “Let’s have a deal now. We won’t talk about the past as for now, we will talk about that later.” He listened very carefully.
“I agree.” Good.
“There’s more, I met some people here, and they knew me as Alizah not Harper, you should call me Alizah.” He nodded again.
“That’s all?” I nodded.
“I have nothing to say then, I agree with you.” I resume walking again. I remain silent, so does he. This is awkward, why I offered him accompany again? I couldn’t help but to question myself.
When I left in werewolf kingdom, I told myself that I’m mad at him, he hurt me, make me upset. But when I’m away, he’s out of my sight, I told myself that I miss him, I’m craving for his love and touch.
When I saw him last night, hope fills my heart, but different questions were asked in my mind. And now… I don’t understand myself, am I still mad at him? Or I’m just disappointed?
I slowly look at him, he’s looking at me too. There’s a smile on his face right now, why he’s so calm and happy? I shook my head and averted my gaze.
“Mom! Is she the girl we saw yesterday?” I look on my left side when I heard a familiar voice. Oh, I know them, Hailey and her daughter, Callie. They’re here too, with a man, probably her father.
“Oh, yes. She is, Alizah!” Hailey called my name.
“Do you know them?” I heard him asked. I just ignored him. A smile formed into my l*ips and move towards them.
“What a small world, Hailey, Callie,” I carefully caresses Callie’s hair. She giggled at my touch.
“Yes indeed, we didn’t expect to see you here with your hmm… boyfriend?” Hailey said as she look at Zach who is standing behind me. Oh no, he used to be, but not now.
I shook my head, I was about to correct her but he walk closer and put his
“Yes, I’m Zachary, her boyfriend.” Is he gone mad? I secretly glared at him.
“Oh wow, no wonder. You two look good together, anyway, I’m Hailey, It’s nice to meet you, Zachary.”
“He’s handsome mommy, did she and him together? Like you and daddy?” Callie innocently asked.
“Not really but closed enough, honey. Umm, this is Richard, my husband.” He introduces the man behind them.
“I’m pleased to met you, Zachary and you, Alizah.” He offered a shake hand which Zachary accepted.
“Likewise.”
“We won’t going to take too long of your time, enjoy your day.” I nodded.
“Sure, the same as you all.” She nodded as well and gave me a short hug.
“We will go first now,” Zach told them and placed his hand around my waist. I look at him, what is he doing?
“Sure, sure.” Hailey replied. As she said that, He guided me out. When we are far from them, I remove his hand on my waist.
“It’s better if you keep your distance away from me.” I said and walk faster. He just chuckled and followed me.
We spend our time together till lunch time. After eating our lunch, we parted our ways. He wanted to spend more time with me but I disagree.
“We just met each other tonight. You better have a valid reason or else…”
“Or else what?” He asked.
“Or else I’ll kick you out.” He nodded.
“I believe I have. Thank you for giving me a chance, Harper.” I just nodded.
“I have to go now,” He couldn’t do anything but to allow me. I go back to my condominium, as soon I reached my unit, I walk towards my bedroom and_ lay down over my bed.
I closed my eyes and think about what happened today. I didn’t expect this to happen, somewhat unexpected. Can’t I really have a peaceful life? Even just a few days or weeks?
I rolled over my bed and sigh, “What a life I have.” I murmured. I’m thinking too much in the way that I didn’t realized I fell asleep.
When I woke up, it’s already six in the afternoon, I slept for six long hours again. Not bad, I really need that.
I lazily get off my bad and walk towards the bathroom. I should take a bath first before cooking for my dinner. Oh no, I should cook first before taking bath.
Instead of going inside the bathroom, I went towards the kitchen. One and half hour later, I’m all done. I went back to my bedroom and go inside the bathroom.
A few minutes later, I’m all done. While wearing my clothes, I glanced on the wall clock. Almost eight thirty in the evening, am I missing something? I asked myself.
Oh right? He will come nine tonight. How can I forget about that. I move faster and go back in the kitchen. Well, I own my time, I’m not even sure if he’s coming or not. He better should, I’ll just give him one chance for this, if he failed to be here, then sorry.
I’m still eating when the doorbell rang, I let out a sigh and stand up. His face welcomed me as soon I opened the door, “Get inside.”
He nodded and followed what I said. “I bring you some dessert,” he show me the paper bag he was holding. I accepted it, “Wait me over there, I’ll just finish eating.” I said and pointed the couch. He nodded again, “Alright.”
I went back in the kitchen and finished my meal real quick. I was about to wash the dishes when I saw him entered the kitchen, what is he doing here?
“Let me do that for you,” he offered. I raised an eyebrow, “No, I can manage. Go back there, and don’t insist.” I said seriously. He sigh and nodded.
“Alright then.” Instead of going back, he remain on his place and just watch me silently. What is he doing?
“What are you still doing here? Get out,” He shook his head.
“Don’t mind me, just let me do this in silent.” Okay, weird. I just focused on washing the dishes but I can’t deny the fact that he’s distracting me. Just ignored his stares Harper, you’ll be fine.
After a few minutes, I’m done. I wipe my wet hand in a towel and look at him. “Let’s go.”
The two of us went in the living room, I sign him to sit down on the couch, while I, I sat down on the couch in front of him.
“So, you can start now.” I told him.
“I don’t know how to start. You should ask me,” why I need to ask? Why he can just tell what exactly happened?
“Just tell me what happened, Zachary, it is that hard?” I asked him seriously. I saw him closed his eyes and inhaled deeply.
“I remember everything when you k*issed me.” He did? But why he pushed me away?
“I didn’t tell you because I wanted to fix everything first,” But you just make it worst, in our part.
“I pretended in front of Keriza to manipulate her, and her mother and it worked.” He continued. Really? Why does it sounds very absurd to me? Why he didn’t tell me that he remembers everything? Why? Why he let me think too much in the way that I even lost myself? s’
“If you remember everything since the moment I k*issed you, why you didn’t tell me? You know what I did for you just to remember, what I sacrificed, why?” I couldn’t help but to ask him.
He closed his mouth tight, what? He can’t find a better explanation about that? Or maybe he loves to hurt me like he always did?
“Answer me, Zach. Why you didn’t tell me about your plan? Don’t you trust me?” he shook his head.
“Not that, I trust you. I didn’t tell because I wanted to make everything alright first before making it up to you, and I think I did the wrong thing. I should’ve told you first,” he should, but he didn’t.
“Is everything still making sense now? What is the point of telling me all of this? You still marry her even if you remember everything about us.” He move closer to me, he hold my hand.
“No, I didn’t marry her. The only person I want to marry is you, Harper. Only you,” What? But I saw with my two eyes their wedding.
“Are you making fun of me? I saw you two get married, the wedding, everything that day.” He shook his head.
“Did you watch it all?” That made me look at him, I… I didn’t. I leave because I can’t stay there any longer since the moment I saw Keriza smile so widely. I just can’t watch it all happen.
“No.” I replied.
“That’s it, you left. I gave them my punishment, they can’t come back to Werewolf kingdom.” He exiled them then. I blinked twice, well, did I think too much without knowing what really happened?
“Are you telling me the truth?” he nodded.
“I am, that’s why I’m here to make it up to you.”
“I wronged you again,” I murmured.
“It’s my fault that I didn’t tell you my plan.” Maybe the fault ‘is with the two of us. /
“No one is at fault. Everything happens for a reason. But…” I averted my gaze.
“But?” he asked.
“But even if we will be fine now, I can’t go back.” I said seriously. He stared at me, “Why you can’t? Does your love for me faded? I know I’m not a perfect man, but at least give me a chance to make it up to you until the day I die.” I shook my head.
“It’s not like that, I’m just tired about everything. I just wanted peace for now,” He touches my cheeks.
“1 know, that’s what I wanted too. But… I want to spend my time with you, be my queen again,” How I’d love to but, I already made up my mind.
“I don’t want to go back yet.” He made me look at him.
“Then we will stay here,” I shook my head.
“You’re a king, you can’t stay here in human world.” He smile. “Yes, I can.”
“No, you can’t. They need you, more than I need you. I wanted to go back but this lime I just want to be who I am, not a princess nor a former queen,” He look directly in my eyes.
“Then be who you are, I’ll stay here with you until you’re ready to go back. In here, I’m not a king, just the man who loves you dearly.” That makes me smile.
I rested my head on his chest, I didn’t expect to turn my world upside down again. I get out in my darkest day, I feel like I’m alive again.
“We will stay together till I can go back.” I repeated. He nodded and k*issed my temple.
“Right, we will enjoy our time here together.” We will. I murmured.
