Protect Me Alpha King novel Chapter 106

Without batting an eye, I answered, "Yes. I will fight against you if it is needed, my dear sister."

Zenith’s surprise was replaced by anger. "You'll wage war against me?"

I made up my mind. “If it would mean stopping you from your evil plans. I love you so much that I don’t want you to die. The alpha king will definitely kill you even if you are his mate.”

Zenith chuckled. “Evil plans? Use your brain, River. Revenge would make our parents proud. This kingdom killed them! I am willing to die if it means destroying this kingdom.”

I shook my head.

I wanted to save this woman. I really do. However, her heart was already full of hatred. “If they are alive, they would be happy if we choose to be with our mates. They would be happy. Contented.”

“Don’t speak as if you know them! As if you met them!”

“That’s the point. You have the chance to be with them. You know them more than me. So please, stop your plans and back out. They never want any of their daughters to be killed.”

“Never!”

Zenith went back to the bed and paced back and forth while biting her lips.

“You will regret this, dear sister.”

“I won’t,” I retorted with a stubborn look.

Zenith stared at me. “Mother and Father will be disappointed in you, River. We only have each other now.”

“No. They will be more disappointed in you for being like this. They know the importance of mates. They want us to live, for Pete’s sake! Stop thinking of your revenge! It will only cause you harm.”

Zenith scoffed. “Mates? Funny how you believed in that thing when the alpha of your pack rejected you.”

My eyes narrowed. “How did you know that?”

Shrugging, she answered, “You think I did not dare look for you when the alpha king accepted me as his own? My dear sister. Even if the majority of this kingdom was against me, there were still others who sided with me. I use them to look for you. I know what happened all your life, my dear sister.”

“But you never even attempted to talk to me. Nor let your presence be known.”

“I have my reasons.”

I held my hands in the air and flapped them like a fool. “Fuck your reasons! You can have it all you want. I no longer want to know anything about you. If you don’t want to listen to your remaining family, we are no longer sisters in blood. After all, all I wanted was to know my parents. You were not included.”

Zenith was opening her mouth to have her return, but the door burst open, and the alpha king came.

In a blink of an eye, Zenith and I distanced ourselves and looked guilty.

Maxwell’s eyes darted back and forth between us.

“Did anything happen while I was gone?” he asked, confused.

“Nothing, Maxxwell. The queen wanted to talk to me privately, Your Majesty, about some stuff.”

“What stuff?”

“Girl’s stuff.”

“If it has something to do with me—”

“It has nothing to do with you,” I answered, cutting off his words. “It had nothing to do with you, Your Majesty,” I repeated my lies.

“Are you sure?”

“Y-yes.”

From how he looked at me, I know he was not satisfied with my statement. However, Maxxwell chose to let it slide.

"By the way, when will you go, River?" the alpha king asked, changing the topic.
