messed up with ace king or did I make right move?

AK IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC ALL IN HAND. the chance of hitting the flop is only about 10%. AK can fall to anyhand. you'll learn more as you play more. AK wins all in about 1/3 times. so if u want to risk it then move all in with AK

Given stack sizes I think you have to shove preflop. You only had 7.5 bb which doesnt give you room to play poker, you have to shove or fold and AK is just too strong to give up in this spot.

AK will hit the flop more like 25%+ of the time and will beat KK 1/3 the time and lesser hand much more often.
