Wrong Man

I
“What’s wrong with your sister, Quacey?” Queen Asalea glared at her son while asking him. “Did something happen while you were at the mall?”
Quacey shook his head while thinking if something unusual happened aside from seeing that Alpha King there, while he and Neoma were playing at the claw crane game machine.
Suddenly, Quacey’s forehead knitted. “Queen Momma, I noticed that Neoma was in shock while looking at the Alpha King of the Ecleteon Kingdom. She fell silent and was not even paying attention to what I was saying to her. That’s all I noticed there.”
Queen Asalea looked at Quacey with worries in her eyes. “Quacey, I hope my guess is wrong about your sister.”
“What about Neoma, Queen Momma? Is there something wrong about Neoma?”
“Neoma mentioned to me that she met a man at the airport and she said that she could feel that such man might be the man of her heart.” Queen Asalea slowly stated her words, while watching the expression of Quacey.
“Oh, goodness, Queen Momma. Could it be that the man at the airport and that Alpha King of the Ecleteon Werewolves are actually the same?”
“I am afraid they are the same Quacey, otherwise, why on earth your sister was acting like that?”
Quacey sighed and then made a deep breath. “This is a problem, Queen Momma.”
“I know, I know, Quacey and your King Father should know this outright,’ Queen Asalea said with a much-worried tone this time. She walked to and pro inside her room and Quacey made a deep sigh again.
After a while, Queen Asalea grabbed her son’s wrist and said, “Quacey, come. We need to go to the Glodeous Kingdom. Just send your sister a message that we are going now.”
Quacey who was surprised nodded in reply. He followed his Queen Mother, who was almost dragging him outside of the palace and going to the garage area. When their palace driver saw Queen Asalea, he followed the Queen and opened the car’s door for her and for Quacey.
They drove fast to the Glodeous Kingdom.
When they arrived at the Glodeous Palace, Dreckos immediately saw them.
“Queen Asalea, I have been missing you here already,” Dreckos voice was jolly but Queen Asalea only nodded at him. Her expression was serious.
“Dreckos, where is King Timodore?” she asked on a serious note and Dreckos felt that something seemed to be wrong.
“King Timodore is in his office, Queen Asalea,” Dreckos replied in a serious tone this time. He could sense already that it is not a time for joking or teasing. There was a problem and it was evident on the Queen’s face.
Queen Asalea nodded. “Alright. Thank you Dreckos.” Thereafter, she walked fast toward the office of King Timodore. Dreckos followed Queen Asalea’s and Quacey’s backs with a confused look.
King Timodore who was busy signing some documents inside his office was surprised to see his Queen wife and son together. They entered his office and both had serious expressions when they sat on the chairs in front of his executive desk.
He raised his eyebrows, somewhat intrigued. “What’s wrong with you both? Your faces look like you lose in a game,” he said teasingly, wanting to lighten up the mood of his Queen wife and son.
“Nothing is wrong with me and Quacey, but there is I guess with Neoma,’ Queen Asalea said in a low tone but King Timodore heard it loud that he flinched outright.

“Tell me, my Queen, what is wrong with our daughter?” King Timodore asked with a furrowed forehead. He did everything to protect Neoma from the Supremo King and he cannot think of other problems concerning Neoma.
“King Father, Neoma met a guy, whom she felt and believed to be the man of her heart. If it is not loved, maybe just an infatuation or admiration?” It was Quacey who was not able to control his mouth and spoke.
King Timodore’s creases on his forehead doubled. “You mean, Neoma might probably find a man that she might like?”
Queen Asalea nodded. “Hmm, maybe not just like but what if she found her fate in love, just as when I found you?”
A smile suddenly crept through King Timodore’s lips when he heard the words of his Queen wife but he then shook his head. “Noema is still young to meet her fate in love. Maybe just an infatuation, Quacey is correct. Is that the only reason why you two were frowning when you came here?”
“No. There is a bigger problem, my King,” Queen Asalea said hesitating to tell her husband about her hint or guess about who the man, Neoma has an eye.
“What is it, my love? Gosh, tell it outright, you are killing me with suspense.”
“The man, Neoma has an infatuation with might be the Alpha King of the Ecleteon werewolves. There, I told you already,” Queen Asalea burst out. She looked at her husband and she saw how his jaw clenched.
“I hope you are wrong with your guess, my Queen wife. That Alpha King might just hurt our daughter and I will not allow him to hurt Neoma!” There was a sudden outburst of anger on King Timodore’s part. He dearly love his daughter and he would fight even with the Supremo King, just to protect her. Thus, seeing her being hurt by another man, who happened to be their clan’s number one enemy would definitely bring out the worst in him. He could kill to protect his daughter.
Queen Asalea could observe the sudden change of mood of her husband. She herself will not allow an Ecleteon to even touch her daughter!
“I am also wishing that my guess is wrong, my King. I will not allow either for an Ecleteon to even touch our daughter,” Queen Asalea said voicing out what was in her thoughts a while ago.
Quacey who was just listening to them suddenly felt sad for his sister. “King Father and Queen Momma, I also hope that Neoma’s man is not that Ecleteon Alpha King because I know how much it will hurt Neoma to know that she is falling for the wrong man.”
King Timodore and Queen Asalea looked at each other and then shot Quacey with their worried eyes. They both knew that Quacey is correct and Neoma is still so young to be hurt for liking such a man that even in their dreams they do not want to be associated with them.
