My Merciless Alpha

Chapter:19( Like or love?)

Jacob's POV

My wolf is being crazy for the lack of our mate. Not to say my condition with is like s**t. I deserve to be left alone I know it. But I am so selfish that I want to make her stay by my side. Phantom has stopped talking to me which makes me feel lonelier. Pride blinded me due to which I dug up my own grave.

My parents were very angry with me due to my inhuman behaviour with Lily. My kingdom is falling apart because of my concentration. All I can think of now is to find my mate and keep her in my arms. My beta and gamma help me with most of the work while I am conducting a secret search party to find her.

It's not that my beta and gamma doesn't help me always. Instead, I like to maintain every work by my own. They just help me with the overall financial growth. That seems very less amount of work, which isn't the case. The werewolf kingdom is huge and the financial work takes a lot of work as they are the beta and gamma king.

In here, the beta and gamma of the Alpha King are also the kings of the betas and gammas. We are the part of the royal family. Alex is my cousin while Leo, my gamma is my best friend. Alex is also really close to me, but not as much as Leo.

I can't do the king's duty in which Leo is acting as the temporary Alpha.

I am not in the palace nor in the kingdom. I am in a mission to find my mate and explain everything to her. Leo brings me all the news of the kingdom where I am now living in the other dimension of the world. I didn't know anything about this place until Phantom felt the urge to come here.

As an Alpha King, finding my mate isn't that hard. I can follow her heartbeat from the other end of the world. All of this is the effect of our mate-bond which is my only source to her.

I promised myself to repent for my mistakes and win my Lily back.

Some of my most loyal warriors are with me for my protection.

........

I am quite amazed to find this place. It's so beautiful here. How come nobody know about this place?

I am still following Lily's heartbeat letting Phantom take over me.

Where is she? I can feel her heartbeat here, but I can't see her anywhere.

It feels like an invisible wall is between us.

Wait a moment, I can smell her from the right direction. I am following her smell which is growing stronger by each step.

I am at the entrance of a cave that is closed by rocks. The closing of the cave seems newly done. Someone closed the cave like they were waiting for a threat.

I tried to move the pile of rocks when all of a sudden I was pushed towards the ground.

A protective shield is covering the filled up cave. That means only one thing, a witch turned on a spell for trespassers so that they couldn't move the rocks.

What if someone took her away? She was supposed to be very weak. Not only for the fact that she ran after waking up from coma. On the other hand, she ran for such a long time to reach this realm. I need the help of a witch for opening this barrier.

For that I need to return to my kingdom. Arrgh! I am so close to her yet I can't go to her because of a stupid spell.

"Let's retreat," I commanded to my pack warriors.

"Yes, your majesty."

Wait for me, Lily! I will save you.

Delian's POV

My life feels so messed up right now. First of all, Lily is trying to risk her life for giving up the throne. Second thing is that Della has been acting very weird lately. She has become harsher than usual. It feels like that her innocent self was just her outer cover.

I know, I feel very guilty for thinking like this about her character. I say, I love her where I doubt her character. I should probably talk to Lily about this problem.

Earlier, Della said that Lily felt very sorry for behaving rudely with me yesterday. And she also said that Lily wanted to apologize to me.

I never meant to make Lily this guilty. I love her very much. Sometimes, I wish that we could be more than cousins. I feel like a cheater to Della for thinking immorally about another woman other than her (D).

I feel to be more attracted to Lily. Snap out of it! - I said to myself.

But can you decline the truth- said my inner voice.

This is wrong! I can't betray Della like this. She has been throughout my most difficult times.

But this is what you think! You heart says something else. - my inner voice mocked.

I know that my inner voice can't be wrong as it is a part of me. I think, I like Lily.

Correction you have fallen in love with her- my inner voice said.

I don't know about that. But I am sure I like her. She is just so strong.... with a big heart. She is not only beautiful outside, but also on inside.

I need to talk to her to clear out misunderstanding of my heart.

I asked one of the royal guards to fetch Lily for me. I need to tell her my feelings. I know I am only a brother for her, but at least she won't blame me later on for not telling her about my true feelings.

A knock came out through the door which I replied with my usual dialogue.

The door opened revealing Lily who I didn't expect to come so fast. She greeted me with her gentle voice which made me immediately stare at her.

I was expecting to tell her about my feelings towards her, but I was shocked by the next few words she said.

Why did my life had to be so complicated!
