Rex’s Pov
I probably would have not sent my whore.e away if I knew what was in front of me later today. But knowing fully well that I would never win against my mother’s whining and my father’s stern warnings. I thought It was better I got the whole day over with. “Rex darling, I would really want some more. I can't seem to get enough of you” she had said in her fake high-pitched voice. I am yet to meet a girl who would not jump at the opportunity to please me and that only helped with my determination to show myself that I had everything at the tip of my fingers and that I can dispose of them as I well please. I belong to no one and I can get everything that I want, even when I don't try so hard. “You can leave. I will call you when I am back from the choosing” I replied, I probably won't call her back. I have had enough of her whining and closeness. This particular one asks too many questions and she doesn't seem to want to settle for just sex. And it's no secret that’s all I'm capable of giving, sex. “Do you have to go? You can just continue to decline. Your parents would understand” She argued. I moved closer to her, and put some shirts on her nakedness. Dressed up myself and left the room. “I don't want to see you here when I get back,” I said before closing the door behind me. Her tears would not stop me or change my mind about her. It made me even upset. “Hey Rex, everyone is ready for you,” my friend and cousin Adam said as he walked to me, dressed in what I can call his best attire. “You must be enjoying this very much” “Oh, you have no idea. The best ones are the ones arranged for you. I'm sure the werewolves will arrange the best girls, they have been told the prince is attending” “Nonsense! I won't be choosing a girl myself, Drogo will do the choosing. Only her judgment, I will follow” I said, and left me to think about what I had just said. “Oh Rex darling, I am so happy you have finally decided to honor your mother. We have to set an example for the people behind us. This has happened for centuries and for our protection, this is the least they can give to us. We have to accept it happily” She held my hands and brought them to her lips. A sign of blessing. “That’s what you said and I am doing this for you. But promise me this would be the last time you will force me to do anything I don't want to do” I grabbed her hands and kissed them too. “You have my word” Only about three men were going with me to the choosing and they are to pick one girl each too, either as mistresses or as wives. None of it bothered me, Drogo was very picky and if she doesn't pick anyone it would only be my luck. My mother or my father would not have anything to say. The most important thing was that I am here, doing what they wanted. “Welcome my prince” The alpha greeted and made a way for us, every man and woman became still, with attention on us and probably our next move. We were not late and that was even more honorable. I, Adam, and the other guys sat down in the crowd while our dragons did the work. The guys thought it would only be proper that they did the same thing as me. Something about showing union between us and hopefully they would make a good choice that way and won't rely solely on their pricks to think for them. When they brought the girls out and it was time for our dragons to do their jobs, everyone was now directing their attention on the girls in the middle of the field. None of the girls struck my attention until. . . Until Drogo stopped in front of the girl at the far end of the line, close to the small and short trees across the field. My breath ceased and I almost stood up from my seat. My heart jumped out of my body only because of the calmness I got from Drogo. And instead of the fear I expected from the girl, she stood still and fearless in front of my dragon. No man or woman has been able to stand up to Drogo and definitely not in the manner. This has never happened before, so when Drogo moved away from her to check on the other girls, I felt a bit of relief. Maybe I had thought it, maybe it was my thinking that was getting the best of me. Or maybe I didn't want Drogo to choose anyone so badly that it was affecting my reasoning. Then I saw her, She moved away from the girls and hid. Why was she hiding? And from what? I saw the boy with her, running away, is she trying to run away with a lover? I thought. Not on my watch would she run away from her responsibilities. Even if I don't want her, I would derive pleasure mainly from making her know that her fate was now in my hands. I cannot believe she tried to run away from what other girls would have killed for. “Are you stupid” I shouted when I saw her jump into the freezing lake. And more than anything it made me furious. I saw the look on her face when she turned to look at me, her fears were replaced with something I would call a challenge. She definitely would not have thought I would leave her inside the lake to drown to death, what kind of life has she lived? I jumped inside the lake after her, and pulled her out. “What the heck happened, Rex?” My cousin whom I wanted more than anything there finally showed up, followed by the alpha and his Luna, looking at me carrying the strange girl in my arms. I would not have explained it if they asked me to. The girl has to wake up first to explain to me what I need to know. “I have no idea. I think Drogo chose her” I said to Adam. Then to the rest of the people watching, I announced loudly to whoever cared to listen. “My Dragon has chosen! She is my chosen one. Prepare a warm bath”Freya’s POV I looked around my surroundings first when my eyes popped open, just for a familiar item to tell me where I was, if I have finally joined my unknown forefathers or if I am now dining with the angels in the afterlife, but instead of that, I am faced with a large decorated room, somewhere in our pack. I was sure it was our pack because of the scent and it reeked of werewolves. I thought since the lake didn't kill me, it only means more problems for me. Now, I have to explain myself to everyone demanding why and what I was thinking to jump into the lake. I could say it was at least a good thing that The selection ended and I was not among the chosen one. I just need to find a maid to ask about what has happened. Who was that man running after me? And Cole, Why did he leave me to myself when he was the one who put the stupid thoughts in my head about running away? I know for a fact that he would not be there if I start receiving my punishment or even after. Not with Di
Rex’s POV “You were saying?” I continued, in respective of the uncomfortable feeling passing through in the air. “Are you stupid?” The Alpha’s daughter cautioned moving close to the Omega, “Did you just look into the eyes of the Dragon prince and talk back at him? How dare you?” I almost missed the action and if I had taken my eyes for more than a second she would have slapped the Omega across her face. I held Diana’s hand in place “What do you think you are doing?” I asked, irritation filled my mind. “I am trying to teach her a lesson. She just disrespected you” She replied in her defense. I was not sure what vexed me the most, whether it was the fact that she just attempted to slap my chosen mate in front of me or because she thought it was her right to defend me. “My prince, you are hurting me?” And I was not sure if I wanted to stop hurting her. “You just ridiculed me. Who are you to defend me?” My voice was stern. “She is my chosen one and you have just tried to
Frejya’s POV “Don’t be mindful of him girl, Drogo and Rex are like two peas in a pond. You would think he is married to his dragon. My name is Adam” He stretched his hands to me. “Cousin to the prince. I am sure you already know his name. And you are?” The dragon prince's cousin said behind my ear as we watched Rex walk away from the rest of us. The way he walked oozed royalty, like the ground he walked was grateful. “Frejya” I replied, stretching my hand to him. “Freya. . .” He fumbled with it for a minute and continued “I like the sound of your name. Please here” He gestured, directing me to the back of the truck. “You will be riding with the girls. I think that should put you in the midst of people you are familiar with” His cousin is nothing like him. At least this one treats me with courtesy. “Thank you” I muttered. Of course, he would take his werewolf seriously when they are indeed two peas in a pond. I have heard stories about Ravkans all my life. Although I had
Freyja’s POVI panicked when I heard those words come out of Adam’s mouth! “To meet the king and queen?” I panicked! I didn’t think I was ready. What would I do when I have finally been paraded as a prize that I am to the Dragon King and Queen? There won’t be a turning back. Once I'm in front of them, there won't be an excuse, everything will b sealed. Now was the time I had to get out of here. And even better that the Dragon prince was paying me no attention at all. “You know my people will be in awe to see their future Queen this beautiful! I hope they tell you this enough where you came from but you are by far the most beautiful female I have ever seen and trust me, I have seen many” Adam said as he placed himself beside me. Of course, I have heard that all my life, from the texture of my skin to my hourglass figure to my ocean blue eyes and my long white hair, but those are sometimes the origin of my pain. The girls don’t fail to hide the fact that they were jealous of me but at
Freyja’s POVAs I entered into the green maze, my heart raced with a mix of determination and uncertainty. Away from Adam's watchful eyes, my only goal was to find an exit from this place, far away from the walls of the palace. Only then would I be free of my pack, just as I become free from the dragons. To do that, I have to succeed without being caught. If not, it would only put me in more problems. The dragon prince had failed in his promise to help me escape from my pack, now I only have myself. I don't see why the Dragon Kingdom was any different. But of course, I couldn't hold any of this against him; I was a stranger in his world and he was a stranger in mine. My pace quickened as I ran through the maze, my senses alert to every twist and turn. Time was of the essence; I knew that soon Adam would discover my deception and come to find me. I wonder how he would react when he realized I had lied to him. The thought weighed heavy on my heart, considering his kindness to me. He
Rex’s POVWhat the heck happened back there? How did she manage to ride on Dorgo?That couldn't happen… It is stated, the only ones who can ride the dragons are the weredragons themselves! Especially when Drogo had never allowed any of my people to even ride her. Bewildered, I continued to wonder as we walked back to the palace.Despite my firm grip on her, she continued to struggle, trying to free herself from my hold. Still consumed by my thoughts, I tightened my grip on her, taking her along.There must be missing I'm something about her. There were no written or spoken words that showed Werewolves practicing witchcraft or any form of magic and I knew she wasn't demonic, not someone like her. But the fact that she rode on Dargo left me in doubt. She had rides Drogo without getting hurt. Tonight, after the introduction, I will make her spill the truth.“I've told you before, I can walk on my own! My legs aren't broken! Let me down!” She screamed in her loud-pitched voice, drawing m
Freyja's POVThe moment the arrogant Prince walked out, I heaved a sigh of relief. I was scared, I had thought he would scold me for riding his dragon, but he didn't. And with that out of the way, I have to think of how to survive in this strange kingdom.“Oh, my darling… I hope the Prince wasn't hard on you?“ The voice of the Queen snapped me out of my thoughts.I looked at her and lowered my head shyly. I was not sure how to act before this powerful woman."I knew it, but you know what? Don't put it in mind. He can be abrasive on the outside, it's all a facade… when you get to know him well, you will know that he is soft and considerate," the Queen added with a smile“Not at all, my Queen. He's been good to me," I responded with my head still bowed. "There you go. Do not cover up for him… I know how my son is," the deadpanned, lifting up my head."You shouldn't go around lowering your head, not when you are with family. You will be the next Queen of Ravkan. Chest out, shoulders hig
Freyja’s POV"After you, my Princess," Eva said, showing me in.Unsure of what was lurking ahead, I took baby steps, one step at a time. I cringed as the door closed behind us but I did not stop.We continued through the hallway until we burst into a room. My mouth dropped open and I gasped in awe.The room was well-illuminated. Its walls were high with beautiful paintings placed here and there.I dashed in, appreciating the view.“Is…is this all for me?“ I muttered in astonishment as I beheld different gowns and regalia hanging down from a cloth rack. There were shoe racks and a section of jewelry too.Eva cleared her throat noisily from behind, making me jump. I was lost in my perusal and I had forgotten that I wasn't alone."I am sorry my Princess, I didn't mean to…" Eva apologized but I interrupted her shaking my head."You did nothing wrong… I was carried away," I said, laughing awkwardly.“Very well then… let me lead you to your room." She stepped forward and bowed before me. H
