Alpha King of Water

YOU WILL BE PUNISHED

ZARYA’S POV

The next day, I headed to the office. I had not seen even the shadow of Hali.

Is ignoring me on his trip now?

“Get in the car.” Bram requested me when he passed by me on the stairs up to the entrance of the Jenkins Enterprise. I hurried to follow him. I held the handle of the black shiny car and got inside.

All our way to the cemetery, I was just silent, looking at the view outside.

“Get down.” Bram did not open the door for me, I did that by myself.

While I was stomping on the grass, I felt my chest beating so loud, and unstable. I felt like there was something that would happen in this place. My wolf was whispering to me that I should be alerted in my environment.

Suddenly, Bram stopped walking. He faced me with his sharp eyes. “Are you comfortable with me, Zarya Wixx?”

I felt like the world stopped rotating when I heard my full name. I activated my ear, hearing the touch and waves of air, trying to figure out if there was harm.

“You are not Zarry, right? Your name is Zarya.” He walked towards me, little by little.

I moved backward as I felt the drumming of my chest. The nervousness was scattering around my system. My knee was trembling, but he would not take my strength to fight.

I am a wolf, the daughter of the great beta. He is just a human being. No capability just like wolves. One bite of my wolf and he would die.

“Zarya Wixx, why are you pretending to be Zarry Hamilton? Why did you fake your certificate of graduation?” He walked near and near. The tension was filling the air. I gasped for air to pull all my courage to fight once he landed his hand on me.

Suddenly, he sat on the grass near my feet. It was too late to notice the gravestone. There was a beautiful flower with various colors surrounding it.

“Don’t fool me.” His eyes were on the gravestone. “If it wasn’t for her, I raped you and ripped you into pieces just like what happened to my old secretaries.” He grabbed my hand and pulled me to sit. “I will give you a chance to explain why are you lying.”

My mouth was barely open when I saw the name of the gravestone. All this time, Bram was protecting me because of…

My knee down to the grass and burst out crying. “Serenity!” I let the tears fill my tears.

My head was messed up, Does this mean, Serenity, my best friend is Bram’s sister? The one who was ambushed. The one who was killed by the family’s opnent.

“When she was still alive, she talked about her friend, Zarya Wixx. She kept on finding you. I helped her, but it was too late when I found you.” Bram’s face was different from his attitude at the office, he was in his brother’s mood.

“Serenity!” I almost hugged the grave as I cried with my heart out. “I’m so sorry, I left you.” My knee was down on the grass. I did not care if I felt so weak right now. I lost my family and one of my best friends. The pain was unbearable. I did not know how to talk to her, her last hours in this world were finding me. My sob was so loud. I burst into everything that I could. Fortunately, Hali was not here, if he was, he would slap me strongly for being vulnerable in front of the enemy.

I stopped crying for a minute, gazing at her gravestone. She did not story told her life, she just said she had a half-brother and even if their blood were not full as a sibling, she loved him so bad. I would not expect that man was Bram.

“Her last words… find my friend, Zarya Wixx.”

Bram’s lines made the tears flood again to my face. “I’m here.” I gasped at the grass and soil surrounding her. “I am here. I’m sorry!”

The tears rolled slowly on Bram’s cheek. “She was sweet, lovely, and beautiful. I can’t accept she died at an early age.”

“Who did this to her?”

“Still looking for.” Bram wiped the small tears on his face. “I will make them suffer tripled as how my sister suffered.”

“I will help you.” I gritted my teeth as my hand tightened gripping the soil. “Can I ask you one question?”

He did not respond. He just looked at me. “Are you finding for Hali? And command your people to kill his friends?”

He shook his head. “No, even if he beats me badly for her woma一” He stopped talking, his forehead was wrinkled. “How did you know him?”

“Did you love your sister?”

“I will definitely take you to bed right now if I didn’t, Zarya Wixx.”

“Good. Then, let’s cooperate with each other.”

*****

“What the fuck! You trust him just a second of stating her sister’s freaking life!” Hali was so mad at me, his eyes were burning in fire. “And you believed him? The enemy can create a story beyond your knowledge!”

When my eyes met Froy, he shrugged. He was on the couch of Khal’s mansion, talking about the plan. “Agreed. He’s right.” Froy said.

“You are not beware!” Hali punched the wall. “You are not going to go back to their damn office!”

I stood up recklessly. “You can fake a story. You can tell a lie… but grief, tears, and sadness can’t be hidden by your created stories.” I went to Hali. I left a little distance between our faces. “I saw it with my own eyes.”

He scoffed with his gritted teeth. “You are biting their snare and once you fell, they will easily cut you apart. Can’t you understand?” Hali’s jaw was tightened.

“You don’t understand me. Serenity is my best friend and she talked a lot about her father. Before this, all happened.” I turned my back on him., calming myself.

“Perhaps, your heart begins to be closed to Bram Jenkins.” Hali stomped his feet heavily on the floor tiles and went upstairs without hearing my response. He was about to reach the second floor when my voice echoed.

“My revenge for my family is not just my concern! My life is surrounded by a good human being who made me genuinely happy in my past! You can’t take me away from this mission.” The tears rolled to my cheek. “My best friend gave me a life that I would look back with a smile. Remember… I lived with the human before and I loved them as much as how they loved me.”

Hali gazed down at me. “Who gives you permission to talk to me in that manner?”

“I have no king if that’s what you mean.” I fought his glare. I was not afraid of anyone, not fear of death as to conclude, that would be my last destination.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

The silence was at Khal and Froy. They were not butting in as they knew how intense the situation was.

Hali averted his look at me as his jaw tightened in anger. “Follow me to my room. You will be punished.”
