Alpha King of Water

THE HOMECOMING OF NEW BETAS I

HALI’S POVThis is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

I placed the hoodie on my head and placed a black mask on my mouth. This was my usual thing when I heard that my mother was having a bad plan for my brothers. I just found myself protecting them in a way that my mother would not know.

My first time doing this crazy shit was for Raiden. I knew he could defend himself, but if my mother use poison, he would not sense it because his wolf power was lightning. I changed the orange juice to a clean one. I wanted the killer who my mother commanded faced death. The night after, I murdered him in his house, no matter how pitiful his pleas were.

The second one was for Colden, he accompanied us to the Human World during Freedom Day. I heard my mother commanding his man to stab Colden’s chest while he was on the dance floor. She commanded a woman who would flirt in him. Before the woman came closer to Colden, I stabbed her belly in the middle of the dance floor. No one had noticed I did that.

The third was for Pyro, even though I so much hated Pyro because everybody liked him, too. My mother threatened him by sealing his wolf form. Not to anyone’s knowledge, Pyro’s wolf and his monster were too evil. For him to be weakened, it should be covered by the fang of a lion. My mother commanded someone to strike him by it. I came first before the man, I hang him on the tree and put a banner, “I threatened King Fire’s life.”

The fourth was for Zephyrus, the omega woman he slept with during the night of our birthday, and was ordered to slash his throat. I seduced that woman and when I got perfect timing, I slashed her throat.

Those were just silent acts that I did for my brothers. No one knew. I kept it inside me and if my mother risks their life again, I will remain to sabotage her plans.

No reason at all why I am doing that. Eventually, I realized how I love them more than anything. Just like what Raiden spelled out.

*****

I was sitting on my swivel chair while listening to music. The big headphone was in my ears when suddenly Zephyrus remove it and shouted in my freaking ears!

“The New Betas from the battle will come tonight or in the middle of the night!”

Instead of being mad at him for screaming right in my ears. I was silent for a second. “How do I look like?”

Zephyrus stopped for a moment and then suddenly laughed so damn loud! I shook my head as I threw my headphone at him. It exactly landed on his big mouth, resulting in him to halt. He was so annoying. He was just kidding me and ruining my day.

“Well, it wasn’t a joke.” I went to my bed and rested on it. I stood up and wrestled him to it until we both rolled on the bed while knocking out each other. It was just a play with my brothers. Until I felt that there were other hands fighting me. I had no idea why Colden was here, how he came without us knowing, or probably we were just busy teasing each other.

When I accidentally looked at the door, Pyro and Raider were there, watching us. The three of us, nodded to one another as if we knew the next thing would happen. We ran out of the bed and rumbled Raiden and Pyro. Of course, Raiden would laugh, but Pyro cursed us for ruining his organized hair.

The laughter was too loud in my room. It was like a riot happening inside. It did not matter if my room was messed up right now. The important was, that we were happy, even Pyro had been forced to be happy. Well, he should be glad because he was now married to the woman of his life, Fira.

Too many things had changed, especially to Colden. Zarya would know everything once she came back.

“King Water…” Leo knocked on my door. “Higher King Oswald is summoning all the kings.”

We both looked at each other. We stood up with our messy clothes and hair. Then, back to being a king attitude, should be respectful and confident.

We headed to the Sacred Throne Room. Father was as usual in his exclusive iron throne. He greeted us with a smile. It seemed like he had good news. We fell in line at his front and greeted him. “Greetings, Father.”

We all talked, except for Pyro, therefore Father gazed at him. Raiden’s eyes were on him, normally scolding him by just the look in his eyes. King Fire forced himself to talk. “Greetings, Father.”

HIgher King Oswald nodded. His mood was wonderful to be ruined by Pyro’s unable to say anything. “The New Betas are coming tonight.”

My mouth moved apart. I glimpsed at Zephyrus, he winked at me. I thought he was just messing around. He told me the truth.

“Out of two hundred players, only fifty have survived…”

My chest moved up and down. However, I did not want them to be noticed what I felt. I was hoping that Zarya, Matilda, and Khal were included in the survivors. My worry for them never lessened until now. It got increased by knowing that the time had come to meet the new Betas. Beta was the fighter of the kingdom. They had the freedom to choose after the battle if they would be a royal or the warriors who would defend our palace and served the alpha kings. Zarya’s father chose to be the Right Hand of my father, a good and unbreakable man. It made him a Great Beta of all time.

Zephyrus’ filthy mouth was about to ask him. For sure, he would question if Zarya made it, but the Ministers called my father. Higher King Oswald glimpsed at us and hurriedly spoke up. “Fix yourself. We’ll welcome the Betas.”

When our Father turned his back. I managed to calm down. My brothers were gazing at me with a threatening smile on their lips. Colden leaned his arms at me. “You supposed to be handsome among all of us.”

“Just for tonight.” Zephyrus chuckled as he dragged me.

The annoying preparation, and choosing the king garment suited me took an hour. My brothers were just watching my furrowed forehead while they were sitting on the long black silky couch. I am going to kick their balls once this was done.

“Go, Lover Boy!” Zephyrus’ tonsil was visible when he laughed so hard.

I raised my middle finger, causing them to laugh even more. How sure are they that Zarya survive? Do they have any news? Anyways, I hope that she was one of the new betas. If not, I did not know how to live. Never mind. I should not act fragile.

When they were done organizing my features, the teasing of my brothers never ended. Even the whole way, they were making fun of me.

“He’s hard now.” Zephyrus came closer to me. He was jokingly teasing me, acting like he would going to touch my balls. “Let me check.”

I showed him my middle finger. They laughed as loud as they could until they died in kidding me. I shook my head as the smile on my face was visible.

“Should I get herbs for anti-pregnancy?” Zephyrus again and his damn bad mouth.

“How sure are you that Hali didn’t want him pregnant?” Even Raiden was supporting Zephyrus.

I gazed at Colden. He had a true grin ear by ear on his lips. I did not like to tell Colden’s love life. He had something to discuss with Zarya. You will understand his story in the Alpha King Of Ice book. Every alpha king’s life was written in the Elemental Kingdom book. It served as one of the important events for the royals and should never be forgotten.

“Open the gates! The New Betas are coming!”
