The Alpha King’s Possession

73. Blood Ties

AZRAEL

I was turning away when I heard Morgana shout, I looked back sharply as I sat upon my horse, staring through Olen’s Arch. I knew Morgana no matter what she wore or if her face was covered. She always held the grace and power of an Araton Royal; the way she held her swords, the way she fought and the way she struck down her enemies. She was one of the finest swordsmen of our kind.

She was doubled over, gripping her waist as she fought off a Fae. Jaylen, the dick I was talking to and one of the four fae princes, raised his hand, motioning for them to storm through the arch that no longer stood where it once did.

Morgana…

“Your majesty, We need to go!” One of my men called out to me.

I hesitated, staring back through the arch. for more visit :- www.noveljar.com I turned away, my heart racing as a memory from long ago flashed in my mind.

(FLASHBACK)

“Brother! Brother, look what I caught!”

I glared down at my little sister. She was almost ten now, and although she was still just a fledgling, her talents were beginning to show through.

“What is it, Morgana?” I asked, irritated.

I hated how everyone always compared her to me at that age. It was irritating.

She smiled brightly, a smile far too innocent for this world, as she held up the butterfly she had

caught.

“Useless, go make more use of your time!” I scolded, walking away.

She didn’t reply, un-phased as she ran alongside me, letting the butterfly free.

“Brother, weren’t you happy I caught a butterfly?” She asked, her large eyes full of sadness.

“No! It’s stupid and useless! If you want to impress me, then go and learn to bear arms!” I stormed away, hating her irritating behaviour, but her vexing reply followed me.

“Ok brother! I’ll become the best bearer of arms in the kingdom and make you proud!”

(END OF FLASHBACK)

I pulled at the reins of my horse as I broke into a trot, putting distance between me and the fae, but with each passing moment, my stomach knotted uncomfortably and my hesitation grew.

She may have forgotten it, but the child in her always strived to please me… She had once looked u p to me… Yet…

“Your majesty, what is it?”

She had surpassed me without even realising it, and slowly, she stopped looking for approval from me. What approval was I to give when she was more admired in the court than I?

“Your majesty?”

I frowned realising I had stopped moving, all my life I took the easy way out… I knew I would never be known as the greatest king of our time… I never did anything to be remembered for… by anyone.
