Protect Me Alpha King

I hastily stood and faced the alpha king, and bowed. It turned out he was not the only one. On his side was another man. It was the prince— Elijah. Back then, I saw him as the playful one, but this time, it seemed he turned into someone serious. His movements were alert, constantly looking at the side for any potential enemies. Other than Elijah, there were no more warriors.

"Your Majesty," I said, reminded of what the rogue had taught me. It should be Your Majesty. Not Your Highness. "You're here. It's too dangerous to be out in the open. The rogues are attacking the dungeon!"

How did he find me here? Did he see I was talking to the rogue? Possibly not. If he did, he wouldn't be talking to me now.

The words of the rogue echoed in my mind. He wanted this person dead.

Alpha King Maxxwell cocked his brows. "They can try, but they won't succeed. My warriors are already working. Who were you talking to earlier, River?"

My heart skipped a beat.

Did he see it?

No. He did not. Try to act calm, River.

I glanced at my back. The rogue wolf was nowhere to be seen. The only thing that I saw was the smoke from the explosion becoming bigger and the endless cries of the prisoners. There was also a fire. Gunshots were everywhere. Distant, but I was afraid it would reach us.

"Answer me, River," Alpha King Maxxwell demanded.

"N-no one, Your Majesty. I am telling the truth."

"Why are you out in the open, servant?" Elijah asked. I could not feel any suspicions in his voice. Only pure confusion.

"I ran in this part, sir. I was afraid I would be sandwiched between their fights and secure myself here." I acted as if I trembled. "I thought I would die because of the explosion."

My knees gave out. Elijah was suddenly on my side, supporting me, and believing my lies.

The alpha king remained standing. I fluttered my eyelashes and saw the expression in his eyes.

He did not believe my actions. I could see it from the way his brows furrowed. But perhaps he was tired from insisting on it so he let it go.

"Come on. Let's move, Elijah."

"This woman is in shock, Alpha King Maxxwell. Can we bring her inside the palace?"

I leaned my weight on Elijah, moaning.

"You can. I don't care."
