Protect Me Alpha King

“T-that bad?” I asked when I saw the twin’s expression. “What happened to the woman? Did someone kill her? Did the alpha king kill her?” I asked, continuously.

A part of me wanted to figure out what happened to that woman. It seemed like if I knew about her story, I would know more about the alpha king. Knowing more about him would be a must.

“Sssh!” the twins hushed. “The guard will hear you! If one of them found out we were talking about her, they were given the power to imprison anyone who mentioned that name.”

“Why?”

Was that woman powerful enough that the alpha king had decided to carry that order?

Flare glared at her sister. “Clara. We are done talking about her. Pretend we did not say anything to River.”

Clara panicked. She drew a couple of breaths trying to control her emotions and the only thing I could do was stare at the two of them.

I did not understand why a single name carried that power even if she was already dead. If only I had acquired the same power as her. I wanted to be like that. To be like Zenith.

“I said nothing. I said nothing,” Clara muttered to herself. "River. Pretend we did not tell you anything."

"O-okay," I replied.

I froze when a sharp object was suddenly pointed at my back.

“How long will you continue gossiping?”

It was the guard.

“Hey! We are not doing anything!” the twins said in unison.

“Freak!” the guard spat at the twins.

The twins advanced and were on the brink of slapping the guard when I stopped them.

“Clara! Flare! It is not worth it!” I exclaimed. They stopped and faced me. “Let it go.”

I thought they would not listen to me because we were both slaves of the alpha king, but to my surprise, they did with Clara muttering curses under her breath.

I sighed.

I hoped I would learn more about Zenith in the dungeon. There was nothing to fear inside if I pry a little more.
