Hidden From The Alpha King

Chapter Two

Aria's pov

I have always know I was the one marked for the disaster.

It wasn’t because mother told me, but the way she always look at me ,she loved me so desperately as if loving me was the same as loosing me. I am the last of us.

I’m the youngest of my three sisters. I was the one fate pointed at like a dagger. I was the one destined to end the alpha’s life.

I never asked for this, but unfortunately my fate was decided before my birth. I just want to live freely , to enjoy life to the fullest but my destiny had other plans for me. I wanted to breathe and love freely but all this has been taken away from me. Freedom was a luxury I was never allowed’

I and my sisters have spent all our years from childhood till my 20th year hiding ,living in fear of been found alive. For how long are we going to continue like this?

This is the question we keep asking mother, we shouldn’t have existed, our existence is a threat to my uncle’s life that’s why we are to remain hidden.

Today like every other day I walked through the school hall way down to my classroom pretending I was one girl instead of three. Pretending I wasn’t a hidden princess, the world shouldn’t know who we truly are,because one mistake,one slip and we would all burn.

I clutched my books as I walked straight to our usual position at the back seat, we had to isolate our self from others. I sat as I delved into a deep thought.

My sisters kira and lara were inside the palace walls today. I was the one to came out today, this has always been the routine ,I represented the three of us . At the end of the day I will go home to my sisters and my mother and educate them on what I have learned.

This has been the method all this while ,that was how we lived our life, in fear,a cycle of secrecy.

Sometimes I wished I never existed, there would've been peace everyone would have been happy.I have always watched my mother while growing up I can see sadness in her eyes,she pretends to be happy but deep down she isn’t.

I heard the bell ring for dismissal ,the teacher never came,I packed my books and headed to the school field where I usually wait for zed the driver.

I sat under the almond tree, it was quiet there and isolated .The tree branches danced above me, brushing the sky with gentle wispers. In that moment,everything felt calm, like the world had paused just to breathe with me.

I had my gave on the field there I can see the children both humans and wolves happily running around ,playing all sort of games, some singing,some dancing. There have so much freedom I never had,I wished I was free like them.

Heyy…

My heart stumbled as my wolf jilted .

No ,no,no

Not this time,not now,

I need my space

I don’t want to talk to anyone

I just want to be alone.

I forced my wolf back down.

The came the voice again “hey are you okay?

The voice was deep ,curious amd gentle.

I lifted my head slowly and there he was.A boy ,tall ,brown eyes that seemed to light up the moment they met mine. He looked at me as if he’d known me long before this moment,as if something about me pulled him closer without him realizing it.

A human boy I thought .

In this world both humans and wolves existed there is been a sacred bond struck between the wolves and the humans, a bond older than any kingdom. Some humans were choosen and ,marked from birth to share a soul link with a wolf.Together they protected the balance of their lands.

I watched you at a distance ,you don’t look happy it seems something is bothering you? He asked.

Panic shivered down my spine.My wolf refused to calm no matter how hard I try

I swallowed before I answered “I am fine”.

He smiled warmly,”you look bored, can I sit with you?

My chest tighthened what does he want from me I thought so loud. i Ignored him

Hello …

Oh no he came again. I lifted my bag and carried it to my chest which signified that he can sit.

He understood the gesture and sat down .

As he sat next to me my wolf sniffled I felt something strange I havnt felt this way before.

I can feel his hidden powers which I doubt he knew was there.

“what is your name “he broke into my thought as he asked .

I am aria ,I looked away ,obviously uninterested.

I’m Ethan he said..

I wondered who asked him do I care about his name?.Obviously not

He contined you looked lonely and sad when I saw you sitting here. And I just wanted to make sure if you are alright maybe I can be of help.

Help? I chuckeled ,how can he help me ,can he grant I and my sisters freedom? How do he even intend to achieve that, how can he change what fate has already decided.

I shoudnt fall for this ,we were not to make friends its against our rule in other to be safe.

Then suddenly a black car pulled by,it was zed .He came at the right time I didn’t want to be with this stranger ,I hurriedly carried my bag as I told him “I am leaving I didn’t care to hear what he wanted to say.As the door flung open I entered and zoomed off.

I looked back i saw him standing and staring at the direction of the car till we were out of sight.

Was I so rude and harsh I thought, but I barely said anything.

After about what seemed like an hour drive we arrived at the fenrath castle I went upstairs to the warmth embrace of mother and my sisters..

I had a hot bath and ate my food as I braced up to teach my sisters.
