The Alpha King's Heart
The Alpha King’s Heart – Chapter 63

The ringing in my head was back ‘It was her, she was the one, my lord,’

‘Impossible! She’s dead, I- I felt the bond break,’ the unknown male voice said. I tried to open my eyes but failed, so I just lay in the soft bed I was in, enjoying the tingles that rushed through my body.

“It’s been long enough, don’t you think?” That was Wyatt’s cold voice, he was worried about me. I tried to open my eyes but failed.

“Everything is normal with her, we already carried out all the necessary tests,” a woman spoke.

“But why did she faint?”

“Fatigued, tiredness of the mind and body, it can be a lot of causes,”

“She just recently shifted,” Wyatt whispered.

“Maybe the body is just adjusting, and getting used to its new normal. The heightened emotions,” The same female voice murmured.

“Thank you, you may leave,” Wyatt said. His lips pressed against my forehead.

“It’s been 24 hours, you’re scaring me now,” he whispered, did he just say I’ve been out for twenty-four hours?

‘Kira,’ I called unto my wolf. I was met with silence, she was sleeping. The room was silent and I must have fallen asleep because I woke up to a voice; Azriel’s.

“Wake up, wake up,” he said icily as though he was mad at me.

“Are you in some sort of a coma?” he asked. ” Well, I found some stuff about your parents, and if you want me to tell you, woke up within an hour,” he gave me an ultimatum.

I almost chuckled, what does he think I’d be doing?

“What are you doing in my suite?” Wyatt’s chilling growl reverberated. Oh goddess, they better not start fighting, they might just crush poor me.

“What did the doctor say?” Azriel’s voice was calm as he asked.

“That she just fainted,”

“It’s been thirty-five hours, shouldn’t you be concerned, brother?”

“Shouldn’t you be somewhere and not worried about My mate, my woman,” he emphasized his words.

“I’m not concerned,” Azriel said and It stung. Why didn’t he like me? He seemed to be there when I need him and willing to help me but he was always so cold.

“Then why are you here?”

“I’m leaving,” Azriel said dismissively. Wyatt scoffed, I so much wished I could open my eyes.

“What the f**k are you playing at with her -“

“I mean no harm,”

“Vow to me, Azriel, say – ” Wyatt’s voice was distant now as I felt my wolf stir inside me.

‘Kira!’

‘Easy, too loud,’ she mumbled, still half-asleep.

‘Where were you?’ I asked sharply ” And what happened to us,’

‘Not sure, but that man, I sensed so much darkness and I was forced to retreat to help us,’ she explained, still unsure. That man we saw in the hallway knew my mother. I needed to learn more about him. I blinked once and then twice before my eyes opened, but I was forced to close them because of the blinding light.

“Ouch,”

“Adira,” two voices I knew very well spoke, all seeming relieved. Wyatt rushed to my side as I sat up and he cupped my face, he kissed my lips softly.

“Oh thank goddess you’re alright, I was worried,” he exhaled, my eyes went to Azriel, he was eased and almost smiling. I gave him back a smile before hugging Wyatt.

“I’m alright,” I said softly.

“Adira, what happened,” Wyatt asked. I exhaled.

“Well, I saw this man in the hallway and I just started feeling strange and he called me my mother’s name,” I said.

“Can you describe the man to us?” Asked Azriel. I didn’t take a good look at him but I can try.

“He was tall with brown hair, stubble beards, and green eyes,” I started pointing out. They both frowned,

“That could be anyone, did you notice anything else?” Wyatt asked. I bit my bottom l*p, thinking hard when suddenly an image of him appeared in my head and Wyatt gasped, getting to his feet.

“What is it?” I asked.

“I saw him, exactly as you described,” he said

“What?” Azriel and I said at once.

“Yes, I don’t know how to describe it,” he looked at his brother, shocked.

‘Kira?’ I called and she giggled,

‘Oh, we can do that now,’

‘Do what, Kira?’

‘I showed him the picture of the man, It’s complicated but I can show people what I saw,’ she said nonchalantly.

‘When did you learn of this?’

‘When I did it,’ she sounded chirpy. It must be one of the abilities that came with being an Alpha female.

‘What else can you- we do?’ I asked.

‘I don’t know,’ so now I knew of two abilities I possessed. I glanced over at Azriel and he gave me a knowing look that Wyatt didn’t miss. My mate growled.

“What is going on? Are you hiding something from me?”

I glanced at Azriel, waiting for something or anything and when he nodded, I exhaled.

“Azriel knows about it?” Wyatt said, hurt filling his words.

“Don’t be jealous, it’s infantile,” Azriel g*****d. I held Wyatt’s hand and he sat back down.

“I don’t know how but I’m an Alpha female,” I let it out. My mate was frozen for a good second before his eyes went to his brother who nodded.

“All black fur,” Azriel confirmed.

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Wyatt glared at him. I sighed and turned his face to look at me and instantly, his cold gaze turned soft. I smiled at that.

“He was waiting for me to tell you,” I said.

“Were you going to?” he asked and I nodded.

I told him everything that we found out seeing I shifted, starting from my strength to what the book Azriel sent me. Wyatt was both impressed and angry.

“So both your parents were Alphas? But it says in the records that they were betas,” he murmured.

“Oh maybe they are not her real parents,” Azriel chipped, and I glared at him,

“Can you stop with that narrative, I told you, they are my biological parents,” he raised his hands at my defensiveness. The brothers were deep in thought, and for a second, their eyes glazed over, mind-linking.

“Stop it!” I barked and they both look guilty.

“It’s rude to talk amongst yourself when I’m here,” I grumbled.

We discussed a little before a growl from my stomach resounded and I felt my cheeks heat up. Wyatt smiled,

“Hungry,”

“Very much so,” I said quietly.

“I’ll go through the security footage in the hallway for the man you saw, if you sensed a powerful darkness, he must be one of the high-ranking dark wolves,” he said. Wyatt nodded.

“But how would he know my mother?” I asked, more to myself. Azriel left the room and I was left with my mate.

“I’ve asked someone to bring you some food,” he said. He looked gloomy so, I straddled him.

“Why are you sulking?”

“Just worried, we need to catch this man, look at what happened to you because of the dark sorcery in his b***d,” he said and I frowned. How come I was the only affected by the aura? It was too much and disgusting.

“Why was I the only one affected?”

“Because you’re the only one who could feel his aura, and darkness is drawn to power so it was trying to manipulate yours, and maybe absorbing it for himself,” he said clearly, looking into my eyes.
