Chapter 118

"Excuse me, guys. Alpha Lucas, can I speak with you please?" Leilah asked.

"Yes." He answered and she made the lead, he followed her, they arrived at a quiet place.

"I just want to know why you had to lie to the princes that I'm not here." Leilah said.

"It wasn't with a bad intention believe me." Alpha Lucas replied.

"I know, but that wasn't necessary." Leilah said.

"Was just protecting you that's all, I didn't want you to keep on getting hurt." Alpha Lucas replied.

"You don't know what not telling them could have cost, it could have cost Alpha Jake's life and you know I love him so much, if he dies then I'm equally going to die, but anyways it's okay, I also want to thank you for taking me in, you are a very good big brother and I will never forget your hospitality, thank you so much, I will have to leave with the princes." Leilah said.

"I'm sorry for what I did earlier, and you don't have to go with them, I can drive you there myself." Alpha Lucas replied.

"No, no, you don't have to worry, they won't hurt me, thanks so much." Leilah said and surprised him with a hug, he Felt his heart ripping apart he wished he could hold her like that forever.

"Good bye." Leilah waved at him and returned to the princes "Aliah, I must say you made the best desserts ever." Aisen said.

"Yeah, I'm the best chef." Aliah bragged.

"Allow her to deceive You, Aliah can't even lift a knife not to talk of cooking." Leilah chuckled.

"C'mon Leilah you don't have to tell them."

Aliah pouted.

"Guys, I'm ready, we can leave now." Leilah said.

"I'm coming with you; I want to check on Alpha Jake's health too." Aliah replied.

"Okay, I know I can't stop you." Leilah laughed.

"I will go talk with my brother and will be right back." Aliah said.

"Come back with more snacks." Prince Aisen screamed.

"Chop chop." Aliah teased.

***

Aliah walked to where Alpha Lucas was and saw him crying.

"Bro, are you okay? What happened?" She asked worriedly.

"Do I look okay? I can't believe that Leilah can do that to me." Alpha Lucas answered.

"What has she done to you?" Aliah asked.

"She looked into my eyes and called me her brother and even told me she loves Alpha Jake and will die without him." Alpha Lucas answered.

"And how is that her fault?" Aliah asked standing akimbo.

"She betrayed me...."

"Wait, hold it there, how can you say she betrayed you when I and you clearly knew that she left her palace because she was confused on who to love and now, she realized her love for Alpha Jake how is that a betrayal? You haven't even told her you love her and you expect her to magically know that you love her? That's why I have been warning you to not allow yourself to fall deeply in love with her, what do you want me to do now, unfriend her because my brother loves her and she doesn't?" Aliah hissed and left without waiting for his response, he is just so annoying, and his love too.

***

Aliah returned to the seating room and they all set to leave, Leilah couldn't believe that after crying for so long, she will finally get to smile and be with the person her heart loved a lot.

They entered the car and zoom off, the thought of getting married to Alpha Jake makes her blushed all the way to the hospital.

***

Leilah and the princes arrived at the hospital, she felt nervous, Prince Aisen and Liam hold her hands when they noticed that, she smiled at them and they headed to where the queen mother was.

Bellamy also arrived at that moment.

"Oh Leilah, you are here, I'm so excited to see you." she said.

"Oh, really." Leilah rolled her eyes.

"Yep, so that Alpha Jake can get better and you be forced to leave to where you came from." Bellamy said.

"Hmm when will you have sense for goodness’ sake?" Liam asked.

"Even if forever comes, she won't have sense, excuse us." Prince Aisen answered and Aliah tried hard not to laugh.

"Who is she?" She whispered to Leilah.

"Alpha Jake childhood crush who turned out to be...."

"Obsessed with him?" Aliah asked.

"How did you know?" Leilah asked.

"I know all childhood girlfriends will be acting as if they are the only one that should marry the friends, they are witches." Aliah answered, Leilah chuckled.

They arrived at where Grandma Amelia was.

Leilah felt scared standing in front of her, she bends down her head.

"Greetings Queen mother." She greeted still facing the ground.

Grandma Amelia stood up wearing a smug look and stared at Leilah, without any smile, Leilah felt like the Queen mother is about to use her claws to redesigned her face but to her ut must surprise, Grandma Amelia hugged her.

"Welcome back Leilah." She said then replaced her look with a bright smile.

"Why did you have to leave Leilah, when I said you should stay away from the princes, I didn't say you should stay away from the palace, we were so worried thank God, we got you back." Grandma Amelia added.

"I'm so sorry Grandma Amelia, I said that you want nothing to do with me after what happened between I and the princes, I felt so guilty, so stupid so I had to leave." Leilah said.

"No sweetheart it wasn't your fault, I was the one been unfair as always for blaming it on you, it was all my fault and I'm really sorry, please don't ever leave us again." Grandma Amelia replied.

"I promise, unless if you are the one that will send me away, I will never leave you again." Leilah said.

Bellamy was standing there boiling in anger.

"Of course, you are not going to leave to anywhere anymore since you will soon get married to Jake, with the responsibilities of been the Luna, you won't even think about escaping from your problems, you will fight them instead." Grandma Amelia said.

Bellamy was shocked, it felt like everything was just a nightmare, she thought that they Only wanted Leilah so that she can make Alpha Jake get better but this, marriage, how can that even happen, Leilah was so shocked too, even though Aisen and Liam had told her already but she still felt surprised that it comes out directly from her mouth.

"Grandma Amelia are you...are you..."

Leilah couldn't complete her statement.

"Yes Leilah, I should have realized that you are the only person that really deserve to marry my grandson, you are the must selfless, kindest, and realistic person I have ever met, and I will be the luckiest person to have you as my granddaughter in-law." Grandma Amelia said.

Leilah hugged her tight.

"Thank you so much Grandma Amelia, you don't know what this means to me, I will finally get to be with Alpha Jake, thank you so very much." Leilah exclaimed.

"Hey you are squeezing the life out of me." Grandma Amelia said and they all laughed.

***

"No that's not possible, I'm the only one that will get married to Alpha Jake, I only deserve the crown and the throne of this pack, I will have to kill that Leilah, I won't let that happen, no, that can only happen after my death body, even if it happens that i die, I will become a ghost and hunt her, I will never allow her to marry Alpha Jake, he is mine, he has always been mine and he will forever be mine and mine alone!" Bellamy exclaimed.

The doctor came and joined them.

"I think she must be Leilah, right?" The doctor asked.

"Yes, she is." Grandma Amelia answered.

"You came at the right time life saver because you are just his life saver, Alpha Jake has been unconscious for three good days and in that three days there is no single second that he doesn't call your name, it's in Alpha Jake that I start to believe that true love does exist." The doctor said.

"I love him too Doctor and I know that he will be fine, I have faith in our love." Leilah replied.

"I also do have hope on your love, please come with me let's revive him." The doctor said.

"Can we a Join you?" Grandma Amelia asked.

"Only you, because it's the intensive care unit, we don't allow crowds in it due to the heavy life support machines, we can't risk a chance." The doctor answered.

"It's okay, they will wait and pray for him, I and Leilah will go in first, if he regains consciousness then you all can go and check on him." Grandma Amelia said.

They nodded.

"Are you ready, Leilah?" Grandma Amelia asked.
