“Alpha King Burkoo, did you know those two teens that we saw at the mall?” his companion woman asked again.
“Twinkle, just shut your mouth for a while. I am not in the mood to talk. Keep quiet until we reach the palace. Do you understand?” the Alpha King retorted, his voice having an irritated tone in it.
Twinkle nodded and fell silent. She still wanted to ask if they will still look for the carpet that they wanted to buy that will be used to replace the old carpet in the throne’s hall, but she decided to follow the Alpha King’s command. She shut her mouth and kept quiet until they arrived back at the Ecleteon Palace. Supposedly, she will go alone to look for the said carpet but the Alpha King wanted that whatever is inside the throne’s hall, he should have a personal touch thereto. He wanted to choose the design by himself.
“Twinkle, tell everyone that I should not be disturbed unless the matter is of an urgent concern or emergency.” After instructing her, the Alpha King thereafter walked directly to his room.
Twinkle followed the well-built frame of their Alpha King with her admiring look. Since their younger years, she already wanted the Alpha King to be her mate, however, when they turned eighteen years old, Alpha King Burkoo did not even show any signs that he found his mate in her person. She was not the destined mate of the Alpha King and she got totally frustrated. She wanted him and no one else.
Inside his room, Alpha King Burkoo was in turmoil again. Just like before, whenever he saw Princess Neoma, he wanted to take her with him and not to ever let her go. His wolf, Hay, always wanted to take over his body when their mate is near. But Princess Neoma, aside from being still so young, is the daughter of their number one enemy. She cannot definitely bring her into his Kingdom. She is a vampire and worst, their pack’s number one enemy. She will be murdered mercilessly by his whole pack the moment his pack will know who she is.
What else could he do? There is no choice for him but to reject Princess Neoma as his mate and then just maybe, he will have his second chance mate.
On one hand, Neoma did not bother to get out of her room, nor to reply to her twin brother when she received his message telling her that they went to the Glodeous palace already and that their Queen Mother was with him. She is too confused to think of anything else. Why on earth that the first man that she likes happened to be the Alpha King of the Kingdom of Ecleteon, their number one enemy. She is sure that her King Father and Queen Momma will not accept the fact that she likes Alpha King Burkoo. And right now, she felt frustrated and hurt.
At the Glodeous Palace…
“My Queen, Neoma is still young, so I guess, whatever she feels now for that Alpha King Burkoo will just pass by especially if she will not be seeing that man again,” King Timodore said, somewhat contemplating on what to do to make sure that Neoma will not see the said Alpha King again.
“Then Neoma should not see that Alpha King again.” Queen Asalea said with firmness. “We can send the twins again to the US until they finished their schooling,” she added but King Timodore shook his head.
“There is no need to bring them back to the US, Neoma will be trained. We will inculcate in her mind that falling in love with that Ecleteon Alpha King will be the worst thing that she would do,” King Timodore replied in disagreement with Queen Asalea’s suggestion. “We cannot hide her for the rest of her life,” he added.
Hearing her husband’s firm voice, Queen Asalea knew that he already made up his mind and she cannot change it anymore. She then nodded and kept her silence.

Neoma’s training with her King father started. They do it thrice a week and early in the morning. Neoma was thought not only how to use her power to its extremity but how to fight like an ordinary human.
King Timodore has no mental powers like his daughter Neoma, but he was able to direct her on how to use it based on his research about telekinesis power. Neoma’s mental power is in its absolute degree if to be unleashed more. She could be more powerful than the Supremo King.
Neoma can easily move simple things by using her mind since she was young, she could even create images in her mind that she wanted to happen. All that is need to be done is to make her mind more exploratory, and creative and her focus to be extremely undisturbed.
“Neoma, let us start today, but I want somewhere else to train you. How about we go to the hill? No one can see us there, I know a place. I wanted you to do something in there," King Timodore suggested, which made Neoma excited.
“Tell me, King Father, where is that hill and how can we go there?” with twinkling eyes, Neoma looked at King Timodore. She smiled brightly.
King Timodore grinned at her. “Let me describe it to you, Neoma. I don’t want our palace jet to bring us to that hill, I wanted you to bring us there, through your mind’s power,” King Timodore said, challenging her young daughter.
“Wow, King Father, that would be hard. I could only teleport in nearby places and places I know and have been there before,” Neoma said, exclaiming. She seemed not confident that she can do whatever his King Father wanted her to do.
King Timodore shook his head. “How will you know Neoma if you can do it if you will not try?” he challenged her more and Neoma almost stomped her feet.
“Ahhh, King Father. You are getting so hard on me,” she frowned and crossed her arms around her chest.
“I am your King. I order you Neoma to do it. Now let us start. Close your eyes and listen as I describe the place and how we can get there. Listen well, focus, and imagine that we are going there,” King Timodore said firmly in his kingly tone and Neoma sighed but she cannot do anything but follow her King Father’s order.
“Can I really do it, King Father?” she asked still with hesitation.
“Let us see Neoma. Remember, if you will fail, we might end up somewhere and can never go back here. So better focus and bring us to where we need to go,” King Timodore said in a strong voice, warning her daughter.
Neoma’s eyes grew wide as she looked at her King Father. “Ohh, goodness. Can I really do it?” she thought.
King Timodore furrowed. “Neoma, if you will continue to doubt yourself, then you cannot do it and we will be doomed! Doubt will bring you nowhere!"
