Taking Responsibility

Alpha Lobo POV
“Yes darling, miss me much?” She said as she smirked back at me, I watched her wear her cloak and readjust it till it fitted her properly, now she stepped back and was feet away from me.
I could already feel the pressure she exerted over me deplete as she distanced herself from me, it wasn’t just her the poison she had over me, she had somehow propelled my body to bid her will at her command, I was literally a puppet.
My eyes darted around my body as it expelled ripples of sweat, it felt alarming to see my body literally sweat because of the pressure I felt inside. I was fighting for my dear life. And this lady had given me a chance to taste what life without my powers would feel like.
I needed to find Ashina, I needed to make sure she’s still alive even if it kills me.
“Well, since we are off to a bad start. I would leave you with the idea of doing something in return for your freedom. Aside from that, have a good day” she blew me a kiss from a distance then I watched her move further away from me, till she walked out of the chambers.
An instant wave of air deluded me. Almost instantly I clenched my hands tighter, my eyes blinking with the full speed of light, I stood up on my feet immediately shifting to my wolf form as I chased after her, hoping to see her and tear her down but she was nowhere to be found.
I couldn’t pin her scent, somehow the witches happened to leave a trace of their scent, but I could not pick up anything, it was as though she was not here to begin with, my curious eyes wandered everywhere in the park for her but she was nowhere to be found.
“Sabrina” I called out but my voice echoed back in my ears, she was literally nowhere, my mind buzzed with hatred and confusion and I took on all fours, storming into my room.
“She wasn’t supposed to make fun of me” I muttered, “I am king! I am king! I rule!”
A sharp pain coursed through my hands. Sending my wolf back to its knees.
I felt a rush of flames course through me, she did say something about being poisoned earlier, and how basically I would be belittled, Sabrina had brought me to my doom.
My world flickered before me as I remained on the floor, tears pricked the corner of my eyes, “darling!I heard Meera say as she walked through the door.
I didn’t want to see her, that cheap liar!, she rushed towards me, “are you okay?”
I shifted back to my human form, letting myself fall on my back, my heart was still heavy, “lobo, you look stressed”
“Meera, please leave, please,” I said.
“I hate that that she has this effect on you, seriously?, I am tired of all this, first you yelled at me for trying to give the border wolf and advise, like I wasn't good enough to lead a pack because she not here”
“You don't know how to, you lack the act of taking responsibility” I managed to say in the calmest tone known to man, gently walking towards the bed I tried to rest my body but she walked over to me, ranting endlessly.
“Meera leave”
“No!, I will not!, all you do is pretend that you love me when you clearly don't! all you do is whine over my sister's disappearance like I am nothing to you, is it because she can heal! well let me tell you too, the goddess loved me too, she gave me the powers to see, and I saw this very day”
‘Lie’ my wolf snarled, furiously clawing at the surface of my mind to burst out and snap her head off her body, my suspicions were correct, she doesn't see, she lies about it, I wouldn't be surprised if Amelia told her all her visions so she doesn't feel left out.
At that moment all I could think of was how I stood on a sinking sand all along.
“Lobo, can you even hear me!, huh!, can you hear me!” she tugged on my clothes, yanking them forcefully, i was gradually losing my temper.
“You know what, i don't blame you, I should have known you are too selfish, and cunny and stupid”
I lost it.
I snap at her, slapping her hard on her face, “How dare you call me selfish”
She slapped me back immediately, followed by another. I wasn't expecting it, I had never been disrespected in such a manner, it came to me as a shock as I stood still, with my hands still on the place she slapped me.
Amelia never slapped me back, she raised her voice every now and then but…
“You think I am Amelia right?; you think I would let you hit me, I know you are abusive and selfish, that you believe no one is like you but I would rather die than let you push me around as you did to my sister, never”
She stormed out of the room in a hurry, I was short of words again, how bad could the day really be?, how low could I really be placed before everyone?
In these past few days, Amelia wasn't around, I had fought with Zeeb, Sabrina, and Meera, the closest people
In my life at the moment, nothing seemed to be working out anymore.
Amelia needed to come back, I could not leave my life without her, everyone had made it clear that I was nothing without her, for goodness sake I was dying without her, my bloodstream was poisoned and she was the only person to help me out here.
I walked out of the room, towards the quarters of the foot soldiers, where my wolves were gathered, then I noticed something strange, someone being bullied by other wolves.
“What's going on here?” I asked the fleet of soldiers, they all stood at attention, their weary eyes darting around in fear.
“Someone say something!”
“There's an imposter here” one of the wolves said as as they parted for the imposter to be seen, at the sight of him i knew who he was, the uncanny resemblance he had with Estel, Amelia's dead maid sold him off.
“What are you doing here?,” I asked firmly.
He fell on his knees immediately, “the Luna paid on my behalf for me to enter the park soldiers program Alpha, it has been my greatest wish to be part of the wolves who protect the park, she only did it for my good, I am sorry”
Amelia?
She didn't tell me…
