MATE TO THE INHUMAN ALPHA

chapter 7

"Your majesty, I came with a message that might cause either life or death." The priest announced on sighting the Alpha walk towards him.

Leon didn't give a reply to that statement, got seated on the chair and ordered Nykon out.

"You're the eyes of the goddess, and through you we get a message from him. I believe you can interpret the message in a way that I will understand." Alpha Leon referred to the priest who sat opposite him.

The not too old man nodded, smiling. "This is beyond explanation, your majesty. I don't know how to put it but the truth is that this kingdom is at stake and it's because of you… they're coming over this pack because of you."

"I don't understand, old man." He got on his feet. "What do you mean by that? Who are they and why are they coming over my pack because of me?"

"The demons and witches."

"But I have nothing to do with them, I'm quite sure that I'm not owing them too." He retorted.

The priest got on his feet. "This is the reason for my coming here. You need to do something on time before it's late." He announced and made his way through the door.

Alpha Leon stood immobile staring at him until he vanished from his sight.

"This is weird. I mean, what do demons and witches want in me huh? I'm quite sure that I'm not owing them and I'll never let them take over my pack." He screeched out.

Nykon had thought that something was wrong with him so he rushed to his visitors chamber.

"Your majesty I'm here for you." He greeted him.

Leon gritted his teeth glaring at him. "Get your sticky self out of my sight."

He got on his feet and dashed out of the room instantly.

He ran his fingers through his hair in anger. Goose pimples kept falling on his skin repeatedly.

"What the heck?" He groaned, biting his finger.

He tried getting seated but couldn't. "I'll have to summon my beta's. We'll discuss this." That's the assurance he gave himself.

Masha glanced at Sephora who was damn weak and smiled.

"Ma'am Sephora. It's everything okay with you?"

She sniffed. "I'm fine but I feel hurt."

"It's okay, I know how it feels to see your mate reject you and desire someone else over you." She comforted her by caressing her hair.

Sephora let the tears roll down her cheek. "I hate him… yes, I hate him so much."

"Come on, don't say that. You don't hate him because I know that the both of you will soon get together again." Masha wiped the tears on her cheek.

She quivered.

Her life has been full of suffering all these years, her own mother watches her being punished by her step siblings and foster father… yet she couldn't do anything to it.

She hated herself at first… but as time went by, she decided to call herself an orphan.

A footstep approached them and the two shut their mouths.

"Oh! It's Dianna." Masha exclaimed.

"Hey! How are you doing?" Diana referred to Masha smiling.

He nodded, returning the smile. "I'm okay, your face is so bright. Share the news with me."

She pouted her lips in a sexy manner. "Ummm! I don't even know how to put it. Well, I am the personal maid to ma'am Elsa."

Masha glanced at Sephora and rolled her eyes. "I don't get you. What do you mean by that? Do chief maids have their own personal maid?"

"Well the Alpha king just started it from ma'am Elsa. She isn't just the chief maid but also his personal mistress too." She announced audibly.

Sephora felt her heart popping out through her throat. She just believed it's a frame and not the fact.

"You must be lying right?" Masha referred to Diana.

She shook her head. "I'm not joking. As I'm talking to you right now, the Alpha king is with ma'am Elsa." She moved closer to her. "She has her own room now, and it's my duty to serve her while she controls all of you."

"I swear that she used a spell on the king. How a lady that just arrived here yesterday took advantage of the king that way when she knows so well that ma'am Sephora is his mate." Masha yelled.

"Mate my foot. She is a rejected soul in this pack and nothing can be done about it." Diana snapped.

Sephora felt hurt. She can't take this s**t from Diana. Never… she can't.

"Mind the words you use on me. Don't just abuse me."

"And what will you do if I do that? Look, you're a slave while we're maids… so you don't have any right to talk back to me for any reason or you'll end up in the dungeon." Diana yelled at her.

She slapped her face, and when she tried saying a word again, she gave her the second slap.

"Despite the fact that I'm a slave doesn't warrant you to step on my feet that way. Be careful." Sephora remarked, pointing her fingers at her.

Diana held her tears, the pains were much but she tried as much as she could not to let the tears drop off her eyes.

"I'll report you to Elsa, and you know the punishment that follows when the news reaches the king's ears." She dashed out of their sight to go meet Elsa in her room.

Sephora got seated again while Masha stood beside her.

"But there's one thing about the king that baffles me. Why is he so cold hearted to the people he rules? He's damn ruthless, but I swear he's the most handsome man I've ever seen." Masha gestured.

Sephora sighed to her last sentence. She wasn't lying, the Alpha king is damn handsome.

"That's one thing no one knows the reason behind. But his handsomeness doesn't stop him from being ruthless." Sephora added.

Masha laughed out loud. "He's a handsome devil."

She giggled. "You've said it all."

"The chief maiden sent for you in her room, she ordered that you shouldn't waste her time." A maiden approached them and uttered.

She turned her neck and glanced at Masha.

"Be careful." That was Masha's word's to her before she left with the Maid to go see Elsa.
