The Alpha Kings Destined

Chapter Five

The sound of hushed voices filled my ears as I slowly gained consciousness. 

"Why the hell is she doing this to herself! I know you know something Avril!," my father demanded.

"Alpha I assure you I have no idea why she did this, don't you think I would have done..."

She trailed off catching my fathers attention. I internally frowned wondering what they were talking about. 

"What is it?"

"King Axel," she said.

Before she could say any more I willed my eyes to open and groaned when I tried to sit up. I realised they were talking about me, and I did not need my father knowing about Axel and I. 

"Nevaeh," my father said as he rushed to my side. 

I looked at him offering him a smile as I met Avril's gaze. 

"He doesn't need to know," I mind linked her not wanting my father knowing about Axel.

She nodded at me before looking at my shoulder that had healed now in concern.

"Don't do this to yourself Nevaeh. He's not worth it," she mind linked back. 

I sighed before facing my father.

"What are you doing here?" I asked as if I didn't already no. 

He glared at me and stood up.

"What am I doing here? What kind of question is that Nevaeh! Why the hell are you doing this!? I thought you moved past with what happened with Elena," he said as his voice softened near the end. 

I sighed heavily before meeting his gaze, "I have, I just had a moment of weakness."

"Nevaeh..."

"Dad I assure you, Im fine," I said.

My father signed before taking a seat next to me. 

"Baby girl I've been with your mother for a long time so I know for fact that when a women says she's fine, she isn't. I don't know why they have to lie about it but I guess its a womens way of asking for help. No matter how bizarre that is. It kill's me to see you doing things like this to yourself."

I leaned my head on his shoulder grateful for having a father like him, "I'm okay dad." 

A knock sounded on the door before a man walked in.

"Alpha Ezra, the Alpha King has requested your presence." 

My father nodded before placing a kiss on my temple and getting up from his spot on the bed. 

"Take care of yourself Nevaeh, I don't want to lose you too." 

With that said his gaze lingered on me in concern before he walked away.

As soon as he was gone Avril was on me in a second. She tackled me causing me to grunt.

"Are you crazy! What were you thinking!" she said as she grabbed a hold of my shoulders and shook me knowing my wounds were completely healed. 

"I wasn't," I said as I pushed her off of me. 

She fell on the floor with a thud and glared at me.

"Exactly you weren't thinking. Do you know how worried I..."

"What happened there?" I said interrupting her as I stared at the bathroom where the floor was flooded with water and faded into the edge of the carpet.

It was only then that I noticed my  hair was damp and I was dressed in a robe. 

Before she could answer there was another knock on the door again. 

Our heads both snapped to the door wondering who it was. 

It opened without waiting for an invitation to enter, revealing the Alpha king himself.

I raised a brow, wondering what he was doing here since he had just called for my father. He looked at Avril and gestured towards the door. 

"Leave us, I need to speak to Nevaeh alone," he said. 

She grumbled under her breath as she stormed out of the room.

I chuckled before looking at my so called mate. 

"What is it?" I pressed when he just stared. 

What the hell is wrong with this guy.

"I heard about what you did to yourself. Why did you do it?" he asked as his low voice reverberated around the room.

I stood up from the bed and walked to my closet picking out a fresh pair of clothes as I stretched my limbs.

"It's none of your concern." 

"The hell it is," he growled out as he walked towards me. 

"Your my mate Nevaeh, what happens to you will effect me. I am an Alpha king. I have responsibilities and packs to watch. I have to do so much more than an average Alpha. I can't afford having you hurting yourself. It will cause a distraction for me I..."

"I didn't ask for this," I said interrupting him, gesturing between the two of us. 

I walked up to him so we were standing chest to chest.

"I will stay out of your hair, but please do me a favor and show me the same leniency. I will stay out of your way so you can control your work load and you can stay out of mine."

"Nevaeh that is not what I meant..."

"Then what is it you want from me!" I said agitated with this complicated man. 

His nostrils flared as he glared, clenching his fists at his sides. After a while his stance relaxed as he sighed before looking towards the ground.

"I don't know," he whispered huskily. 

"Exactly," I said through clenched teeth before throwing my clothes on the floor and storming out of the room.

"Is there a reason your moping around the castle."

I looked to see who was entering the garden and saw that it was Alejandro. If I had to give an honest opinion of the man, I would say he had s*x appeal written all over him. His confident demeanor and striking features could draw any women in. He kind of reminded me of Frederick except he usually ignored women who tried to get his attention and only hung out with me and Avril. 

Speaking of Avril, she better make up her bloody mind about not wanting him before someone else steals him from her.

I scoffed before looking at the view in front of me.

"Im not moping. If anything I would say your the one moping around," I said chuckling.

"Im not the one who is mated to the king, so I would say you are more likely to be moping," he said.

"Well I'm not the one mated to a girl who can't seem to accept the fact that she has a mate."

He snickered before running a hand through his hair.

"You wonder me Neveah," he said. 

That women is something else, she won't even try to see reason. In a way I do love them feisty but this chica....damn," he said shaking his head as he took a deep breath.

"Looks like she's already got you wrapped around her finger," I said grinning at him.

"Un dedo que no me importaría estar envuelto," he said with a wink.   

("A finger that I wouldn't mind being wrapped around")     

"Te das cuenta que sé cómo hablar español," I said with a laugh.    

("you do realise i know how to speak spanish")   

He looked surprised for a second before he opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted before he could.                             

"Well don't you look comfortable." 

We both looked towards the house to see Avril walking towards us with a narrowed gaze. 

I grinned at her while she directed her glare at Alejandro.

"Mi amor, what do I owe the pleasure," he said as he stood up walking towards her. 

She placed a hand on his chest and pushed him back when he got to close. 

"I don't think so buddy. Come on Nevaeh, Her Majesty has requested to speak to you." 

"Delilah?" Alejandro asked. 

"Why do you wanna know? Was she one of the chicks that were "feisty" to you," she snapped. 

"Avril, learn to not speak ill of the Queen. She is a respected individual," he warned. 

"Respected my..."

"Did she say why?" I said interrupting her before she could get herself in trouble. I stood up and walked towards the pair as they practically glared at each other.

"No, she just wants to speak to you," she said as she turned away from her mate irritated with him.

I nodded my head before facing Alejandro.

"Thanks for the talk," I said before making my way out.

I chuckled hearing their bickering before Alejandro shouted. 

"Dammit Avril!" 

Suddenly I was grabbed by the arm with Avril practically running into the house, dragging me along with her.
