Alpha King of Water

GRANDMA

ZARYA’S POV

Hali was about to come near me when I stopped him by showing my palm. “Don’t.”

His both eyebrows moved up. “Why?”

I gazed away to eliminate the pain of what I saw. I was not sure, but why would he go there with flowers?

“Just go,” I whispered with no energy. I did not want to create an argument, so it was better to be silent and let him tell me about it.

Even if I told him to go, he went toward me and said. “You have no right to command me. I am a king, remember?” He climbed on the bed and hugged me so tight. “Good thing, you took your bath. We’ll go somewhere.”

“Where?”

“You’ll find out.”

I was insanely in love with him. I was not aware that I had already forgiven him even though he said nothing or confessed nothing. I just wish that woman was not his affair or else… I am going to cut his big long manhood. I swear!

Well, I love him so much.

Meanwhile, I found myself walking in the middle of the woods with my curiosity. Why would he bring me here? Does it have something to do with his affair?

All throughout our travel his arms were on my shoulder, a sign of possessiveness and telling every creature in this world that I am his. When the moment we arrived at the house in the middle of the forest. He spoke up.

“I’m sorry for hiding it from you. I just don’t know how to start talking about this matter.”

I moved my head down as I gripped my skirt tightly. So it was true? He had another woman? He never thinks of me. I hate him to the bone but… I love him. Truly.

“King Water!” It was unexpected when the woman open the door. I was starstruck by her beauty. Her perfectly white skin with blonde hair, beautiful small eyes, pointed nose like a British woman, and lips were thin with a well-formed jawline. I was just a little compared to her.

“She’s my secret,” Hali whispered beside me. Even though my heart was bleeding I continued going inside the small house.

“What do you want, King Water? And Great Beta? Lemon tea or apple juice?” The woman had an accommodating attitude and a friendly tone. She seemed unbothered by my presence even though she knew I was Hali’s, prioritized love.

The woman walked toward me and offered her hands. “By the way, I’m Ayesha.”

Hali gestured his head that I should get the hand. I slowly bonded our hands as my eyes were sharpened. What’s the purpose of meeting her? To slap directly into my face that she is more beautiful than me.

“Zarya Wixx, The Great Beta, Poisonous Strawberries, and Lady Of Overkill,” I emphasized every title I said to make her cringe. She was messing up with the most dangerous Hali’s girlfriend. She should know her place.

“King Water told me. I am your number one fan. I want to be like you!” Her energy was as high as the warm temperature.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“Your age?”

“I am eighteen.”

I gazed at Hali and giggled at him, but he just smiled at me. I was eighteen years old when we first meet. So he likes a woman with an eighteen years old? I am not a teen anymore. I am twenty-five years old, that why he dislikes me now? Great!

“Where is she?” Hali asked while looking around.

What? So there’s another woman? Wow! He is fantastic! A playboy will never be changed! I hate him so bad!

“Oh, yeah. She’s in the kitchen.” Ayesha hurried to walk away from us. When she came back, I was startled when an old woman holding a cane while stepping slowly. Ayesha was helping her to walk. What is this? Am I wrong in accusing Hali?

“Did Leo come home?” The old woman asked.

The tears in my eyes welled up. This woman was Leo’s mother, wasn’t she?

Hali stood up and helped her to settle on the wooden sofa. I could not breathe out. I felt suffocated when I felt bad for the old woman. She did not know that his son already died? I wondered how painful it could cause her.

“Hmm. He’s at the Elemental Kingdom…” Hali looked down as the spark of pain traced in his eyes. “He will come home… soon.”

“Why didn’t you bring him, King Water?” The old woman suddenly touched his shoulder, tapping it up until it reached his face. I wondered why he was like trying to find out who was in front of her.

Is she blind?

“He… was just busy.” Hali’s stared at the old woman. “Don’t worry too much.”

“Hmmm? Did you bring flowers when I said don’t pick the flower in the garden? Let them shine in its stem and fall when it’s time to fade.”

“I didn’t.” Hali was getting emotional. “But I bring you the flower that never fades.”

My tears condensed in the corner of my eyes when Hali grabbed my hand and bonded it to the old woman’s wrinkled hands.

“You can’t see her glow, but I can tell you what she looks like.” Hali slowly formed a smile. “She’s the most beautiful in the garden and even if I pick her, she continues to twinkle.”

“Oh, God! Is she Zarya Wixx? The Daughter Of The Great Beta?” The excitement filled her voice.

“She’s now the Great Beta, Grandma, and I have always been proud of her,” Hali told it with his heart.

My tears slowly rolled to my face. It was breaking to know that Leo disappeared from this world, leaving her beloved mother. I just wondered what would be her reaction when she knew the truth.

She gradually tapped my hands, recognizing my features. When her palms reached my cheek, she wiped my tears. “King Water?”

“Yes, Grandma?”

“She’s so beautiful.”

“I told you. She is.” Hali’s confident tone could be heard.

“I’m tired of waiting for your heir.”

Hali chuckled cutely. “Just a little wait. I’m trying so hard.”

I liked to laugh when Hali scratch his nose in embarrassment. I found him adorable. My heart automatically felt light. That was why he wanted us to have a child because of Leo’s mother.

“Grandma…” Hali sniffed. Hali shook his head. “We’ll always be here for you. Ayesha一your personal caretaker, me, Zarya…, and our future children.”

“Can I be your son from now on?” The tears were produced in his eyes.

“You can… always, but I don’t want Leo to get jealous.” Her voice was glad.

Slowly, Hali sobbed silently. “Grandma… Leo is… resting in peace.”
