2 - Accidentally Mated

There is only one chamber for me, and the five Alphas were waiting for me.

Four royal servants forced me into the room, even though I screamed in protest. No one came to my rescue, making me feel like I was being kidnapped here.

Upon entering the room, the first thing I noticed was the strong scent of Alpha pheromones. I raised my face and saw five beds surrounding the royal chamber. Each bed was occupied by an Alpha, with only one empty. They looked at me with hungry eyes, as if I were their feast for the night.

"Are you Isabelle Magnolia, correct?" One Alpha with a white mane and golden eyes, Nathaniel Demetrius, spoke to me.

I knew who they were. They were Princes from each kingdom in this vast realm – from left to right, Nathaniel Demetrius, Frederick Valerian, William Octavius. They were all noble Alphas who would become the new kings in the Theodosius kingdom.

However, there was one Alpha whose name I didn't know: he sat in the middle bed. His body stood out among the others. His hair as black as the night, and his eyes as blue as the ocean. Unlike the other Alphas who looked at me with impolite gazes, he just sat quietly on his bed.

But I knew he was observing my body at the moment.

"Good evening, my Alpha brothers. As per our agreement, this is the Omega I promised you. She is the best Omega descendant in this kingdom. I'm sure she can bear many children and heirs for you all!" Arthur suddenly entered the room and announced something that left me stunned.

"Arthur, what does all this mean!?" I stood up, pulling his body with anger. In front of these four Alphas, I argued with Arthur, who continued to smile with his arrogant face.

"You must bear heirs for all five of us, Isabelle," he said. "I saved you. You were on the verge of being kicked out for not finding an Alpha Mate, right? You will get your mate here. And in return, you must be a breeder for us."

My hands covered my mouth in disbelief. "I never agreed to that agreement! This is just like you selling me, Arthur!"

And he laughed. "Then what? Without my help, you would be kicked out as a dishonored Omega from this kingdom."

I couldn't believe it. My first love, the Alpha who should have been my Mate, was actually selling me to other Alphas!

"Wait. If I'm here, what about Anastasia? Aren't you supposed to marry her?" I suddenly remembered that.

"You must replace her, Isabelle. Anastasia is infertile. Meanwhile, I need to have heirs. So you must take her place as the mother of my children. Understand?" Arthur's words made no sense to me.

Before I could speak, dozens of female servants entered the room and dragged me away. They took me to a dressing room and adorned me beautifully. From inside, I could see Anastasia crying outside.

I could guess that she was crying because she didn't get to marry Arthur. Then I fell silent. Indeed, I needed a mate to save me. But not like this!

"Uh, excuse me. May I go to the bathroom for a moment?" Finally, I found a way to escape after they dressed me.

When the female servants let me into the bathroom, I immediately took off the luxurious dress on my body and ran away. I aimed for the back door of the palace, but there were many royal guards there.

"Hey, you! Don't run!" the guard shouted upon realizing my escape.

Struggling, I tried to escape their pursuit. Unfortunately, I stumbled and had to fall to the ground.

"Ugh ..." I groaned in pain. Before I could look at the wound on my leg, suddenly I felt the barrel of a long rifle against my forehead.

Panic spread through my body quickly when I realized who was pointing the firearm at me:

He was the black-haired Alpha in that chamber. The only Alpha whose name I didn't know. Also, the Alpha who had captured my attention since our first glance.

"Matthias L Theodosius," I murmured, reading a name written on the gun in his hand.

"Who are you? And why is a poor Omega like you step into my palace?" Matthias got closer, pointing the gun at me.

"Your Majesty! Don't shoot her! The Omea is your mate! She was brought here by Prince Arthur as your mate, and she will bear your children!"

Matthias didn't shoot my head after one of his servants arrived and explained everything. He looked at me with an unbelieving and disgusted expression, as if knowing that I was his new mate made him hate me.

"This ugly Omega will bear my child?" he scoffed sarcastically. "Even if the whole world collapses, I won't deign to touch her body."

Just like that, Matthias left me. He walked away while the other servants helped me stand and cleaned my body. I didn't have time to be angry or upset with his words because they captured me after I tried to escape.

In the end, they locked me in a spacious and luxurious chamber. Here, I was alone. It felt like I had been in this room for a whole day without anyone accompanying me.

I almost jumped out of the high window and the palace if I didn't see someone entering the chamber without permission. I thought the servants would bring me food, but Matthias came to meet me looking disheveled.

"M-matthias?" I called, as he didn't speak and just stood in front of the door, staring at me.

He looked so disheveled, and I could smell his strong pheromones from here. Something os wrong here; I was sure of it.

My discomfort grew when Matthias suddenly hugged me with his hands touching my body.

"Estella ..." But instead of recognizing me, Matthias called the name of a woman as he hugged me. As if he mistook me for someone else.

"Estella. I miss you. Why did you leave me?" he said so softly. He kept trying to kiss my lips with his eyes closed.

"Matthias! You're mistaken! I'm not Estella! Let go of me!" I tried to make him aware. But Matthias pulled me in and pushed my body onto the bed.

He pressed my body very tightly. He, on top of me, I smelled the overpowering pheromone. I sweated cold: 'Could it be that Matthias is in his mating season.' I thought while continuing to resist.

He was clearly trying mated with me. I could only stay silent when my consciousness began to fade, letting Matthias vent his lust and misunderstanding on me. That day, I was too weak to know what happened between us in that room. As morning approached and I managed to wake up from my faint, Matthias was no longer in the room.

I swore I had never felt so scared before. Matthias could kill me if he found out that I slept with him that night.
