The Gorgeous Man

I
“Who is this man, you are talking about Neoma?” Queen Asalea asked with full of curiosity. Only now that she saw how Neoma’s eyes shine so bright when talking about a certain man.
Neoma’s eyes suddenly turned gloomy. “That is the sad part, Queen Momma, I was not able to get his name. I might not see him again.”
“Ohh, don’t worry, if he is meant for you, you will meet him again, when you are already at your proper age to get married. Meantime, we have so many things to prepare for you, before you reach that point,” Queen Asalea said while tapping Neoma’s back. She was smiling, kind of amused by her daughter.
“Yeah, you are right Queen Momma. If we are meant to be, I don’t even need to search for him, we will just meet at a certain point in time and in a certain place,” Neoma said aloud, with a voice full of hope and Queen Asalea chuckled before smiling widely at her.
In the next few days, Neoma’s secret training under King Timodore and Queen Asalea started while Quacey is being trained under the supervision of Dreckos at the Glodeous Kingdom.
It was not difficult now for Neoma and Quacey to get out of the palace as they are not being recognized as the Prince and Princess of the Glodeous and the Knostican Kingdoms.
Like ordinary teenagers, they could go to the mall and loiter around the street without fear of being at risk because they just look like ordinary beings. Just like now, Neoma and Quacey decided to meet at the mall to play their favorite game when they were still small. The claw crane game machine, where they plan on winning more teddy bears and giving them to some human kids in the street.
Neoma arrived first at the mall and she walked straight to the gaming zone and immediately bought some coins to be used in the claw crane game machine. After a while, Quacey came and he hugged her sister laughing.
“I missed you, baby bear,” he said while hugging her tightly and Neoma was laughing hard.
“Hey, Ace you looked great!” she replied in a high pitch. Quacey’s fake name is Ace.
“Of course. Now, what have you got here?” Quacey, happily looked at the two teddy bears that Neoma won in the game.
From a distance, a gorgeous man was walking along together with a lady friend, when he suddenly smelled that sweet scent akin to a newly bloomed scented primrose, the most fragrant flowers on earth. The same scent that he sniffed two years ago and just days ago at the airport.
His keen eyes scanned the area and then he walked following the direction where the scent came from. His companion was surprised by his action but she has no other recourse but to follow him.
Suddenly, the gorgeous man stopped walking as his eyes caught a glimpse of two teens playing something in the claw crane game machine. The male teen would even hug the female teen every time they would catch a teddy bear inside the claw crane machine. His forehead furrowed and jealousy hits him.
“Alpha King, what’s the matter?” his female companion asked curiously while looking at the two teens, whom her Alpha King’s eyes were focused on.
Instead of answering her, the gorgeous Alpha King walked toward the two teens and then stopped on the claw crane game machine next to the machine where the two teens are still happily playing.
His companion followed him and asked, “My Alpha King, would you want to play that? I love to play that game too,” she said aloud that the two teens in front of the nearby claw crane machine suddenly looked at them.

Neoma’s face grew red as she looked at the gorgeous man in front of the next claw crane game machine. Her eyes widened and her heart thumped crazily. She even put her right hand on top of her chest as she felt it wanting to explode.
“Baby bear, what’s wrong?” Quacey asked her sister, who did not even look at him. He followed where her eyes were looking at and his forehead furrowed. “Do you know that man?” he asked again but Neoma was still in silence while looking at the man beside them.
The gorgeous man on one hand was looking back at Neoma with squinting eyes then his eyes squinted more as he looked at Quacey next.
“Alpha King, what’s wrong? Do you know them?” his female companion asked in a whispering tone but Neoma could clearly hear it.
“Alpha King. He is an Alpha King,” Neoma chanted in her mind with much awe.
“No, I do not know them,” the gorgeous man whispered back to his female companion. He then held the arm of his female companion and walked away before leaving Neoma with a disgusted look.
“Who the hell is that man? And Why was he looking at us like that?” Quacey said hissing as if he wanted to chase the man and punch him.
“I, I don’t know, but his companion called him Alpha King,” Neoma suddenly said in a low voice and Quacey’s eyes grew big.
“We gotta get out of here. There is danger. If he is an Alpha King, he might be the Alpha King of the Kingdom of Ecleteon, our number one enemy.” After saying so, Quacey grabbed Neoma’s hand and almost dragged her as he ran while holding Neoma’s hand. They went straight to the parking area and decided to use Neoma’s car and leave behind Quacey’s car. They can just ask one of their drivers to pick it up.
Quacey drove the car while Neoma was still in shock. Her expression was unfathomable until they reached the Knostican Palace.
As they entered the Knostican Palace they quickly ran upstairs to the room of their Queen Mother. Good thing, Queen Asalea was still in her room, when the twins arrived.
“What’s going on? Why are you in a hurry?” Queen Asalea asked as the two barged into her room. Quacey was with fear and at the same time with anger while Neoma was silent and with an incomprehensible expression.
“Queen Momma, I guess we just encountered the Alpha King of Ecleteon Kingdom!” Quacey announced and Queen Asalea stiffen. She got her mobile phone and scrolled on her photos and then when she saw what she was looking for, she showed it to Quacey.
“Did the man you saw look exactly like him?” Queen Asalea said while showing to Quacey a whole body photograph of a man in his mid-twenties probably. Quacey got his mother’s phone and looked at the picture on it.
Quacey’s eyes widened more as he nodded several times. “Yes, Queen Momma. That man we saw at the mall, looked exactly like him!”
When they looked at Neoma, they saw how her face grew paler and her eyes moistened.
“Neoma, what’s wrong Baby?” Queen Asalea asked with knitted brows.
Neoma shook her head and in a flash, she was gone in their front. Neoma left them using her newfound ability to teleport and both Queen Asalea and Quacey were shocked by her action.
