Bianca was fuming, holding her bloodied nose. She starts running towards me, ready to punch me back.
I was getting ready, waiting for her to come closer, when my Mate grabbed her hand.
To my surprise, he didn't push her away but put one arm on her back while the other was brushing her face.
My heart shattered at the view making Ivy whimper into my head in pain. She was as hurt as I. The pain got worse when he spoke while getting out a handkerchief and handing it to her.
"Bianca, my love, are you ok?"
"I'm not that bad, but this bitch is gonna pay for this!" she shouts, yelling at me and trying to get out of Mateo's hold.
I woke up the following day with a sore tummy and a terrible headache.Remembering that I need to go shopping with Leon and Anna, I get off the bed and head to the shower. My tummy was covered in bruises, and I didn't understand why or how.'They are from last night. This can happen when your Mate is cheating on you. For you being a Royal with an Alpha for a Mate is worse. It would be best if you accepted his rejection, Amaya. Otherwise, it won't get better.' Ivy said into my head.'I know. I will! Next time when I meet him, it will be the first thing to do.'I get out of the bathroom and put on some short jeans with a red t-shirt and trainers.Anna gave me these l
I get on the balcony and take a deep breath closing my eyes.'Are you ok, Amaya?' Ivy asks.'I don't know! I... I feel weird.''It's ok. All these changes and this place. Plus, all the stuff you have been through. It will be ok, Amaya!'I didn't say anything back to her. I opened my eyes and watched the sky. It was almost dark. The ceremony will start when the moon is to its fullest.A scent so familiar and intoxicating, but at the same time so poisonous, hit my nose, making Ivy growl into my mind.'Let me take control, Amaya! I will kill him right there!' she said in an angry voice.
Few guards came and grabbed Mateo's arms.Before they could take him out, he looked at me."Amaya, please! Forgive me, I'm sorry!" he said with pain in his voice. I knew he was sorry, but I wasn't sure if he was losing me or my title.Besides, after what he did to me, I will never forgive him."I'm sorry too, Mateo! But now is too late!"Bianca runs to his side, but he doesn't acknowledge her."Wait!" I said when the guards started pushing him towards the doors."You can stay for the ceremony if you promise you will behave! I have no grudge against you. But do
"What do you want, Alpha Mateo?" I ask in a cold voice, looking into his eyes."Amaya..."I chuckle, interrupting him, then put on a severe face. The bond was broken, but the pain was still there. All I know is that I should act like a true Queen and Alpha, meaning no one could see me weak or hurt by my emotions."I'm Alpha Amaya to you!"His eyes held pain and surprise. He didn't see this coming."I want to say I'm sorry and that I will do anything to get you back! I was stupid, indeed, but we are Mates; we are made for each other. Please, forgive me! I will take back my rejection."My
After Leon took off, I gestured for the others to follow me back home.We all shift and dress in what we could find hidden in the forest."I'm so proud of you, daughter!" my father said, coming my way."Thank you, father! Now let us go; I'm starving!"All of us got back to the Ballroom to have some food and drinks. I know earlier I was exhausted, but now I feel so reinvigorated.'You like this, don't you? You know, being a wolf?' Ivy asks me, chuckling.'The truth is that I do, Ivy!'"Amaya Ricci!" I heard the annoying voice of Bianca.
I wake up at the sound of someone yelling at me.My head was hurting so bad that I thought it would explode any second."Amaya! Amaya, wake up!"I open my eyes to see a crying Anna next to me, trying to help me up."She is here! Come and give me a hand!" she shouts again, making me frown."Amaya, what happened?""I don't know! I was walking around, and then something pricked my skin, and I fainted.""That bitch!" we said at the same time."It must have been Bianca. Otherwise
"Wake up, my dear Mate! It's time for breakfast!"I open my eyes only to close them again when my head starts aching like someone smashed a bottle on it."Come on! Get up! I don't have all day!" Mateo shouts, grabbing my arm.He pulls me up roughly, not caring that I can get hurt."What is happening? Where is my father? Where is Leon?!" I ask, remembering that the last time I saw them, they were unconscious."Oh, shut up now! Wait, and you will see!" he said, tightening his hold on my hand. I'm sure it will be bruised."Was this your plan all the way, Mateo? To get the throne for you?"
My eyes were as wide as the Moon, and my heart was beating frantically.He wants me to give him heirs?"Fuck you, Mateo! First, you rejected me, and now you want to have kids with me? Never! I will not do this!""You will, Amaya! And you know why? Because if you don't, then I will kill them!" he said, pointing at my father and Leon."Do not do that, Amaya! Do not listen to him!" Leon said."Oh! Shut up, you pathetic Beta! She will do it because she cares about you! Don't you, Amaya?"I look away without an answer. They knew pretty well that I would do anything for my family.
