The Alpha King and his Beta's Human Mate

Chapter 6

I awake to a hand shaking me. It shook me again, hard this time

"Mom, just give me five more minutes, pleasee," I beg, trying to go back to sleep.

"This is not your mom, and you need to get up now," I hear a strange voice say.

Slowly opening my eyes, I realise that I was not at home, in my own bed, but in a strange room. Quickly sitting up, the previous day's event, came crashing back at me.

"What time is it?" I ask, stretching my hands up over my head, yawning. I already knew, but chose to plea ignorance.

"Its almost nine o'clock, and we will be late," Ms. Anna tells me, looking upset.

I really didn't care, if I was late, so what! I can't be late twice. I didn't ask for any of this.

Now don't get me wrong, it was nice to be in America, but the places I have always, fantasize about visiting, was Dinsley World, Orlando, New York, California, you know, exciting places.

Instead, here I am stuck in this stupid town, hidden away from the rest of the world.

Not even one of those Hallmark town, but a Alice in wonderland, kind of one.

"Get dress quickly, and meet me downstairs," she tells me, heading out the door.

I laid back down, and close my eyes.

"Just five more minutes," I mutter to a now empty room.

I awake a second time, but to the sensation of floating, opening my eyes, I was stunned to find, that my body was hovering above the bed.

I screamed and screamed again, trying to find a way to get down.

"Now you see, what you made me do," says my grand godmother smugly.

"I was planning on us, having a nice talk over tea, and slowly bringing you up to speed, on me being a witch." she says.

"A witch!" I sceeched out. "No, this cannot be real, I'm dreaming," I say, over and over again.

She points her right finger, towards me mumbling some aincent words, under her breath. I feel myself starting to spin, then faster and faster. I close my eyes, feeling nauseous and yells at her to stop.

"Are you going to get dressed?" she asks.

"Yes, scary god grandmother," I yell back at her.

The spinning slowly stops, and I slowly float back down towards my bed.

"You are much too beautiful, to be this naughty. I can now understand your mother, needing some time to be by herself, if this is your behaviour," she says sternly, looking at me.

"What are you saying, am I the reason she sent me away?" I ask her with tears, forming in my eyes.

"That's not what I meant," she says. " Now meet me, downstairs in five minutes."

I watched her walk away, and quickly dress back, into the same blue dress, from last night. I did not even have time, to take a shower or fix my hair.

I wash my face, and half way brush my teeth. Dragging on a pair of blue sandals, I begin unbraiding my rumple hair. Hoping that I would have the time, to braid it back neatly, before we got to wherever we were going.

I find her waiting, at the front door on me. She glances me over, then heads out the door. I follow too, walking closely behind her.

We passed a few houses, along the way. The sky was bright and sunny, a cool breeze was blowing my hair in the wind.

I take the this time, to ponder about my dream. I had dreamt of a strange man, he had rescued me from a huge wolf, and held me safely in his arms. I knew that he was my soulmate but couldn't see his face.

Every time I tried to look at his face, he would move his head. Yet, somehow I knew, he had the greenest eyes. Weird, right?

This kinda reminds me of a dream I had before coming here. I only remembered bits and pieces, but had written some words down. Maybe the two dreams were connected?

I didn't know what to make of it, I just knew that, I felt safe in his arms, it almost feel like home, and this was where I belonged.

If my mom was here, she would be able to help me. She was great at decipering my dreams. She once told me, that dreams are a combination, of the past, present and future.

Understanding, which was which, was the key. If I were to use her logic, then I had to be careful, because danger was near, but I would be okay, because a stranger would help me.

Who this stranger was? What he would mean to me? Was a different matter.

After walking about ten minutes, we come to a slight incline, in the road leading upwards to an enclosed area.

There stood a gigantic house, no, more like a castle. It was surrounded by high black stone walls, with a large metal medevial gate, as its only entrance.

Staring at the gate, I notice an engraving on it, similar to the one I saw at the water fountain, in the main town area.

I suddenly, had a no longer, crazy thought, If my god grandmother was a witch, then what was everyone else?

The gate was guarded by, four very tall, goodlooking, muscular men, dressed in all back pants and t-shirts.

"We are here to see the Alpha King," says my god grandmother nevously.

"He is not here. He left five minutes ago, on urgent business," answers one of the guards, he seemed to be, the leader of the group.

Ms. Anna turns head and looks at me, but I pretend not to notice her.

"Is Beta Ethan available then? I was told to bring my grand god daughter, to meet with the Alpha King, but we are late," she explains to him.

"It is not a good thing, to be late to meet with the Alpha King Zain," says the guard reproachfully.

"We sincerely apologize," Ms. Anna says to him, looking more nervous.

I see him goes silent, for a minute or two, with his eyes glazes over.

What the hell, was that about? I wondered.

Was he having a siezure of some sort? I got concern, looking at the other guards, but they seem oblivious, to what was taking place, in front of them.

"The Beta will see you now," he says, coming out of it. He indicates to the other guards, to open the gate.

I walked behind her, through the tall gates, and hear it closes back, behind us.

I feel so afraid, that I had bearly noticed the guards, staring at me with puppy looking eyes.

My hair was all loose now, hanging down my back, reaching the back of my knees.

We continue walking, up the paved pathway, passing lanscaped lawns. There were gardens, filled with a large variety of pretty flowers, with several water features adorning it.

In front of us, stood the castle, with tall white marble pillars of the same were creature, gracing each side of it's main entrance.

The fear was more prelevant now. Growing steadily inside me, the closer we got, to the castle.

"If you are a witch, are they all the same?" I ask her, as we neared the first set of steps, leading towards wide oak wooden doors, centred in the middle of the castle structure.

"No, this town has supernatural creatures of all kind, but it is ruled by the Alpha King and his people," she explains this to me.

"It is a safe haven, where we can all coexist peacefully," she declars, proudly.

"Later, I will explain it all to you, but now we have to get approval, for your stay here with me."

Approval? For my stay here? Is it because I am human? I wondered, getting annoyed by the fact, that this was not done before, I came. What if they refuse me, then what? I would have to go back home, which would be great news to me.

We reach the main doors, and they opened before us. An extremely, beautiful young woman stood there. She had blue raven black straight hair, just past her shoulders, an oval shaped face with large doe eyes.

She was taller than me, around five feet eleven inches, and wore a halter style white dress, with matching white two inch heel wedges.

"Nice to see you again, Oracle Anna," she greets her with a tight smile.

Turning to me, the smile quickly faded.

"What are you? Human?" she asks scornfully.

"You look unusual, and why did you dye, your hair white? It is much too long," she criticizes me.

I guess her insides, didn't match the outside, I thought nastily.

"We are here to see Beta Ethan," Ms. Anna says stepping into the grand foyer.

I look around me, with my mouth hanging open. I was amaze by the exquiste beauty, gracing this elegant area. The floor was lain in a rich blue marble, with numerous portraits and paintings adorned the walls.

Rich gold, coloured trapetries covered the numerous windows, and at it's center sat a mable encased staircase, gracing the foyer, leading up to heaven, maybe.
