The Kingdom of Mereen called the Alpha, Hope. And he hated that name. Instead of appreciating it, he cursed anyone who called him that but people still called him by the name that the kingdom gave him.
The King was so happy to see his friend that he couldn't hide the fact that he missed him, he hugged him for the first time time in his life. " Oh, I've missed you.... Hope" The king chuckled when The Alpha cursed under his breath.
The Queen was running through the corridors while Clara trying to pick up the pace, the Queen sure is a first runner ,thought Clara. When the queen caught a site of her husband and The Alpha who stood at the pillars of the corridors. He rushed and embraced The Alpha.
The Queen smile widened " welcome back, Hope" The Alpha rolled his eyes " aargh..... not you too Sophie"
They both laughed . The Alpha talked about his journey, the adventure that he came across. And said " guess what.... I've brought what you've longed for" The king and The Queen looked at each other and then back to The Alpha. Since The Alpha didn't tell them why he traveled, they solved the puzzle in their heads trying to figure out the reason why he left but they couldn't.
The Alpha sighed " come on, you want me to explain it to you..... ?!" they looked at each other again before the King came to realize what his friend meant.
" No way.... you did?" The King asked he was too excited. The Alpha nodded and soon the Queen realized it too she covered her face with her hands, the tears started to roll down from her eyes.
The king tried to thank his best friend but he couldn't pit it in words, so he embraced him tightly. The Alpha chuckled at the reaction of the King. Soon,The Alpha's face fell and said " But you have to endure the pain and the struggle for a whole year even more than a year, but not more than two years".
The king asked " what is it?" The Alpha sighed and watched the couple's worry expressions and said " you have to endure the pain, the crumps that are gonna happen in your body. And not just any pain and not any cramps but the serious one that would even cost you a life"
The king face fell and said " no no no, you can't take that medicine Sophie, I don't want to lose in such way" The kings hands held The Queen's small ones. And then The Alpha said " you haven't to endure it, your willingness and your spirit has to win the battle"
The queen thought for some time. She endured many years of the hash words, insults she received in the castle and many other negativities in her life. Maybe It will be nothing compared to this, thought to her self. But this, the one chance to change all of that is right Infront of her.
" I can take it" said the Queen.
The king was surprised " what?!... NO!, no Sophie, you can't"
" I can, honey, trust me"
The king sighed and then turned to The Alpha and told him " if she dies, what do you think I'll do to you?... mmh?" The Alpha raised both his hands as if he surrendered and said " she won't, cause I believe she can do it" and he smiled to her " I have faith in you Sophie, just trust in your self and nothing will go wrong" said The Alpha.
.....
After a week of preparations, The queen started to take the medicine and in six months she didn't experience any pain.
After 11 months, The Queen woke up and took a bath after finishing, Clara was helping her getting ready and suddenly Queens legs gave out. She collapsed for two more months and when she woke up, the pain that she felt on her belly was like someone was using force in pulling out the insides ,she couldn't sleep, eat, drink or even sit. One week felt like years to her. The pain that she couldn't get used to.
Screams that were filled with pain were full in the Kings quaters. After three months of enduring such tremendous amount of pain. The king argued with The Alpha each and every day " She has to stop using this medicine right now and I don't need her to go through that hell of a pain again" the king shouted at The Alpha.
The Alpha said " and then what?, you want her to die?.... she can't just stop taking the medicine after going through all of that, it's only a matter of time before the days comes, Richard" The king was scared he couldn't enter the room that his wife was kept in.
On the 24th month, the Queen fell unconscious again, this time for 5 straight months. The King and The Alpha fought whenever they come across with each other untill the Alpha's men comes to stop. The King's men didn't stand a chance on these two men's tremendous powers.
At the 29th month, that was 2 years and 5 months. The Queen woke up, feeling good as new. Clara wanted to call for the king but Queen Sophie told her not to and instead to help her getting dressed. After a long shower, she was dressed and made her way to throne room but the King wasn't there. So, she decided to go straight to the garden where she usually liked to spend her time in.
When she reached at the garden,she saw the king sitting on the bench. She went and stood 2 feets away from the king and called " My king".
The king turned his Head to see his wife's beautiful face. He stood up and went where she stood, he caressed her cheek " are you real, my love?" The king asked his wife.
She chuckled and said " yes honey" The King embraced his wife tightly " I've missed you so much" She tapped his wide back and said " I've missed you too".
They sat on the bench for quite awhile now. While the Queen observed her flowers, the King couldn't take his eyes off her, he watched her long lashes and her pink lips.
He pulled her closer to him and pressed his lips against hers, the moment that he's been waiting for.....
Queen Sophie pulled away from the kiss and her forehead was touching his, as she tries to catch her breath. She noted that The King's breath turned shakily. She traced his jawline.
She lifted her head and observed the king's face..... his eyes shows tiredness. It looks like he lacked some sleep. She whispered " oh, honey.... you've been through alot" her one hand holding his while the other on his cheek. Feeling the soft touch of her hand he took a hold of her hand and pressed a kiss on it " not as much as you did"
And he kissed her again, this time he deepened the kiss, not wanting to let go as his desire to make love to her spread through his mind and body.
" Save it for later love birds" They turned their heads to see The Alpha smiling at them. Queen Sophie stood and gave Alpha a quick hug and she pulled away. She addressed him " Alpha"
" My Queen" said The Alpha and gave her a small bow. His eyes darted to the King and he gave him an encouraging smile.
The King stood up from the bench and said to him " you're living?" The Alpha nodded and said " My Business here is done as you can see"
The wide smile on the Queens face turned small. He observed the two men and said " did you two got into a fight?!" The Alpha and The king's eyes widened, they both said " what?! No"
The Queen laughed and hiding her mouth with her palm " ok ok, it's ok as long as you both still have your eyes and ears"
" I would kick his ass if he tried to mess with me" The Alpha said to the Queen.
" Hell no!, I would have ruined your ass if you didn't listen what I said" said The King. " And did I?.... Did I listened to your shit? I just did what I had to, I didn't do any of your stupid stuff" said the Alpha and he moved close to the King as if he was ready to fight " look at those damn eyes" said the Alpha to the King.
" Now you've had it" the King punched The Alpha right on his left cheek.
PUNCH!!!
The Alpha return the punch to the King and when The Queen had enough, she stood between the two men and said " enough you two.... you look like children right now" she sighed " can't you see yourselves? you both look exhausted, like yo----"
" I'm far away from being tired. Look at his scrawny ass" said The Alpha while pointing his finger towards the King.
The King was annoyed and rushed towards him " you arrogant bastard I'm gonna flunk you" he raised his punch to give The Alpha another good beating but the Queen shouted " Richard!.... could you stop this" The King stopped and put down his hand while his eyes still on The Alpha.
