The Alpha’s Human Luna - Chapter 135

There came a knock on the door.

I wonder who it is? I’m looking forward to tonight’s ball, I plan on having fun, too bad I don’t have a date, I mumble as someone walks inside right after the knock.

“Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most gorgeous princess of this land?” Zenab grins as he walks inside the room, I stare at him and smile, he was looking amazing himself.

“Stop,” I let out a gentle smile and chuckled walking over to him.

“What I’m telling the truth, didn’t the mirror tell you that, well look into my eyes it’s the best mirror and it says my sister is the most gorgeous sister in the whole land,” Zenab teased holding my hands in his.

“You don’t say, why are you here? is princess Sharon not accompanying you to the ball?” I asked brushing his nose with one hand.

“And who will accompany the most gorgeous princess of the land?” he threw my question back to me as he offers his hands to me.

“Shall we?” he asked with a smile, I smile at him setting my hand in his, “Yes please,” I grinned as he happily took my hand as we heard out of my chamber.

“Behold, presenting the crown prince, prince Zenab and princess royal, princess Nancy!!!!!!” the announcer mumbled in a loud hoarse voice as everyone stands slightly bowing their heads as we walk in.

It was magical as always walking by the side of Zenab, grandma had the warmer smile and wish us for the thousand times a happy birthday, we greeted the elders in the royal family with a bow and kissed their hands for blessings.

“Bless you, my child,” they mumble one after the other, now it was time for Zenab and me to dance, but the elders object Zenab can’t be my dancing partner because he has wives and according to tradition it’s the wife’s right not the sister’s.

Zenab was slightly worried because it was Shelly’s father, having to stand the sight of Shelly made his blood boil.

I look over to Princess Sharon and tilted my head motioning her to come over, after all, they are all his wives, Princess Sharon giggled and quickly run over even when princess Shelly attempted to join us on stage, she stepped in back shamefully.

I smile at Zenab and Princess Sharon when he happily took her hand, I turn to leave the stage for them just to see Prince Asher standing in my way.

“May I, my princess?” he asked putting his hand forward with a fake smile, he had the upper hand because all eyes were on us even that didn’t bother me, I was only pissed I won’t get to spat on his face since doing that will cause me trouble with grandma.

“Who said I want to?” I said gritting my teeth while faking a smile, “Everyone is watching us, so please protect the little prestige you have left,” he snarls as he takes my hand forcefully, the nerve of this moron astonishes me sometimes.

“You know what? you are more pathetic than I thought, if you are going to raise yourself so high you should at least do it with some class it is so shameful to know your father still dictate who you even dance with,” I pout since I was forced to dance with him I could only let out my anger on him.

“Not all of us has the luxury of saying no to our parent’s orders,” it took him a while to answer that, I suppose I manage to bruise his ego which makes me extremely delighted at least we are both having a bad time.

“Oh, by the way, it’s not luxury it’s about standing up for yourself,” I chuckled a little above his ears as he rolls his eyes, my eyes glancing with grandma’s who couldn’t stop smiling.

Zenab and Sharon are fondling each other happily while I’m stuck with this ass hole that makes me unable to breathe, great the music just ended, I immediately took off my hand which I’m sure everyone did notice but hell I couldn’t stand him any longer nor keep faking smiles.

While I walk out of the stage leaving him there looking stupid Zaneb and Sharon were still dancing slowly to the rhythms of their heart.

Suddenly the grand door opens as Princess Adela was being announced and walks into the ball majestically looking stunning in a pink dress quite identical to mine if not the same.

with a crown similar to mine, everyone started to whispers among themselves, Zenab and everyone’s attention was on her as she makes her way to the high table where the close family was seated, I tried to conduct myself and let it slide but the more I try the more absurd I look.

I walk close to her as she bows with the same fake stupid innocent smile she has. ” Long live my princess,” she hissed with a smile.

“What a coincidence your dress looks very similar to mine if not the same, now take off your crown and seat among the guest,” I ordered with a serious look on my face.

“You heard me, you are not yet part of the royal family until then stop acting like one moreover it is my birthday and your husband to be is not even present here,” I mumbled as she couldn’t keep pretending with a smile.

She tilts her head with a gentle bow and turns to leave the hall angrily, Zenab walks to me and holds my hand, “What did you tell her Nancy? people are watching,” Zenab cautioned.

“I asked her to sit among the guest for she is not yet a royal member and she decided to leave,” I scoff, I was angry she dare to walk out on me her little wings must be cut off before it grows any bigger.

“It’s time to cut the cake!” grandma rumble to get everyone’s attention from what happened. I know she must be planning something.

>Betty can you hear me?< I asked closing my eyes, I couldn’t spot the twin anywhere and I was scared they might be her target, grandma won’t let me leave from there.

<Relax Nancy Barbara and Barbie are with me,> Betty said reading my mind yet still I felt restless something was wrong I could feel it, is Nico back in the palace?

“Nancy!”

“Huh!” I was startled as grandma called me for the third time, I took a piece of cake and feed both Zenab and grandma the piece of cake.

Now it was the turn of every royal member to feed us cake, some of these traditions are making the palace very boring.

I fake a smile each time they walk up to me to feed me the cake which I have to eat from their hand pathetic right? I let out a sigh when the last royal member was done.

“Where is your uncle prince Nico?” he should be here, it is very important for him to perform this ritual for his nephew and niece,” one of the leaders said as Zenab at me nervously.

“In hell where he belongs and which I hope he stays there forever,” mumble to myself.

“Where you saying something my princess?” the annoying old man asked me.

“Oh no I mean he wished us this morning already but he needed to visit the family that took care of him because of the wedding tomorrow,” I came up with the first lie that came to mind trying to sound convincing enough.

“But he grew up in an orphanage and has no family even that he could have just summoned them, why the need to go there in person?” one of the leaders asked looking confused and of cause sense something fishy.

“Um well you know that’s uncle for you, full of secrets,” I said sarcastically as they look at me with doubts in their minds.

while we were at it a guard came to whisper something into Zenab’s ears as he exclaimed in shock, “WHAT!” Zenab screams as everyone’s attention shifts to him.

“What happened?” grandma asked as Zenab was still in shock, “Grandma,” he mumble still unable to speak.

“Here you what is going on? speak now,” grandma ordered the guard to speak.

“Your royal highness, a group of soldiers has successfully breached the borders of Zamuniland, and are matching straight to the royal palace,” the guard announced in fear.

“How did that happen?” Grandma grumbles in shock holding her chest.

“According to what we heard they had some of our weapon that was how come they were able to open the seal.” The guard rumbles.

“Zenab what is going on?” grandma asked looking disturbed and confused at the same time.

“Grandma I thought I could stop it when I found out about it I confronted Prince Nico but instead he … he..” he Zenab murmur, he did try to kill him and I’m sure only grandma understands his last statement even though he didn’t finish it.

“You mean Prince Nico betrayed us?” one of the leaders asked dumbfoundedly.

I angrily stare at him and roll my eyes, “GUARDS!!!” Zenab yells as the palace soldiers march inside the hall.

“Listen up everyone the palace is currently under attack,” Zenab announced as the crowd tremble in fear.

“But you are all safe here, and as your prince, your safety will always come first,” Zenab mumbles as he turns to face grandma and me. “You should all stay here don’t come out once the heavy gate is close,” Zenab murmurs holding my hand.

“I’m coming with you,” I insisted as Zenab gave me that look, ‘here Nancy this is war just stay in here like everyone else’

“No Nancy, I’m not putting you in harm’s way and besides this is..” he paused I would have kicked his ass if he had finished his sentence, probably he has forgotten what I can do.

I look at him angrily, “Alright fine come with me before you endanger everyone else with your stubbornness,” he resorted and none of the elders or leaders objected because those old fools only care about their safety right now and it doesn’t matter who they get to sacrifice.

Zenab turn to take one look at Sharon before turning to leave as if he was saying goodbye to her and his unborn child.

I’m here brother, I will always protect you I mumble to myself as I place my hand on his shoulders as we head to the lab to see the real ground of the situation.
