The Foreign Alpha

GoodBye

"Princess, here are the presents the kings gave you on your birthday", Lucy brought them to me. I frowned because I'm not sure why she is bringing them to me, she understood I have no clue and explained to me, "is tradition to use the gifts at the farewell party, to show you like them".

My mouth formes an 'o' and then nodded.

I open the first gift and was king Adler's gift, say I was surprised gets short, because I was impressed, was a beautiful tiara white gold with pearls and diamonds that casually match my dress.

"It's perfect for your dress today", Mercedes exclaimed, "ok, here is the next", she prompts me with more excitement.

She passes me the box and was there something I have never seen, "what's this?", I asked showing them.

"It's henna", Rose educated me, "this is King Hamilton present, right?", She asked and I nodded, "this is from his lands, in important events the women get henna tattoos on their skin, I can help you and make a design on your hands", she offered it and I smile, "we need to start right now, while Mercedes do your make up", she advised and I nodded smiling again, she has gained a lot of confidence since she mated to Dominic.

"Wow, this is beautiful!, thank you Rose!", I praised her and she bowed with a smile. She made a beautiful mandala design in my hands.

"Ok now, we need to get your hair done, while the henna dry", Mercedes add.

"I don't want to do anything on my hair, I will just brush and let it loose", I replied and she nodded her head.

I decided to go downstairs until the last minute to avoid looking for them and I let Clara the handling of the details so I have nothing to be concerned about.

I opened my door and standing in front of it was him, "You look stunning", I heard Derick's voice and my body was cover in goosebumps from my legs up to my arm, everywhere.

"Thank you", I replied and continue to walk.

"Will you just avoid me now?", He asked and I shook my head.

"I don't believe there's a person in this world that can avoid you", I sighed and he laughed.

"Will you let me escort you to the ball?", He asked

"There's no need, I will escort my daughter", my dad's voice sounded behind us and Derick's face showed disappointment but nodded and left.

"You refugee on your room and even when I tried to contact you, you blocked me", my dad expressed and was not like he was scolding me, was more like amusement, appears my questioning look gave me away, "only another royal, can block me, never experienced that before", he explained and I smiled.

We walked to the ball, "you need to make a choice, I can't lose you now that I found you", he started and I can feel his concern, "your mom will be here Sunday, once everyone leaves".

"Dad", I whimpered

"I promised her to keep her up today with everything about you, and to be honest, in this situation is better for you to have your mom's support and wisdom", he explained and I kissed his cheek he is right.

"Thanks, Dad", I replied.

We reached the ballroom and we took our places to greet everyone, for our Alphas will also be a goodbye, they leave after the royals.
