It has been three days since I last saw Gideon. He doesn't join us for breakfast in the morning, that leaves Samantha and I to dine together. I asked Samantha about Beta Leo and Gideon's whereabouts and she said that he has been dealing with an issue about rogues attacking some villages in the kingdom and kidnapping female Lycans.I still remember I had heard about that kidnapping thing from my previous Pack so females were advised not to stray away from the woods.I didn't know the Lycans were still facing the same issue.I didn't press on the matter because I didn't have any help to offer.Everyday after breakfast, I would go back to the house and spend the whole day in the room doing absolutely nothing.I was used to work so all this idleness was taking a toil on me.Tired of lazing around, I walked to the royal kitchen.The servants who saw me cast me surprised looks while others tried not to hide their disdain for me.I did nothing to any of them so I didn't understand why they
Gideon POVI finally entered the room that held one of the people I never in my wildest dreams thought that she would betray me." Long time Gideon, have you finally realised that I am the only woman for you and came to set me free?" Avery asked.I scoffed. Even after all these years, nothing about her changed. She was as self conceited as ever. She always makes everything seem like it's about her." No Avery, on the contrary, I am here to give you some good news." I said, smiling at her with mockery.Avery made a confused look, as if I was speaking in an alien language." I found my mate." I enunciated every word, making sure she got my message clearly.Avery burst out laughing like I uttered the funniest joke ever. She must be thinking that I conjured lies to rile her up." You? Found your mate?" She scoffed." Only I can be the woman by your side. Do you Know why? Because your step mother cursed you to never find love after you brutally killed her. You can only be stuck with me Gid
Gideon POVI retired for the night after confirming that my mate was safely asleep in her room.I felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders. A burden that for years had me drowning in my self made ocean. After speaking with Avery, I felt free, felt liberated. For years, I had been looking forward to that talk and after I made it, I felt good.The council requested I attend the meeting with the new werewolf girl who happens to be my mate. I sure don't Know what their plan is but one thing is for Sure, my mate will not be attending that meeting. I Know they would try to intimidate her, something I would really not appreciate.She has been through alot in her former pack and in the hands of that Alpha. The last thing I want for her is to deal with more pressure.I don't intend to be polite to anybody who wants to trouble my little mate.Thinking about her innocent and sweet face, I smiled myself to sleep.The following day, I woke up to my Beta trying to mindlink me.He a
Gideon POVWe made our way to the council meeting room and the old foxes were already there, waiting to tear me into pieces as I could see their imaginary claws and fangs bared at me the moment they realised that my mate did not accompany me, or should I say the werewolf girl was not with me.I strolled to my chair, ignoring the looks they were giving me.After I settled on my chair, I swept my gaze through all the attendees before clearing my throat." I don't remember setting the next council meeting as today so I wonder what was urgent to have you summon me here." I started, making sure to relay my displeasure over the matter of the council demanding that I appear before them for some stupid and irrelevant reasons." Forgive me your Highness but the matter at hand is something of security importance to the kingdom. We just want to know the identity of the werewolf you brought to the kingdom." Naver, one of the trusted men said with a wink. The man has a way of getting his way with
I arrived at the royal clinic just to find my sister ready to give my mate mouth resuscitation.The thought of having anybody else feel my mate's lips before me did not sit well with me.Before her lips could connect to my mate's, I had already pushed her away, taking her position.Taking a deep breath, I pumped all the air out of my mate as Edward, the royal physician pressed her stomach repeatedly.After three more trials,my mate suddenly choked out the water as she gasped for breath before passing out immediately.I heaved a sigh of relief, glad that although she was out of her consciousness, she was at least breathing.My heart calmed down just as Leo stepped to the clinic, the alphas following behind in panic.They must have thought that something alarming had happened after I jolted out of the room in a lightning speed and that without informing anybody." What's happening?" Leo inquired, his fear and worry hitting me through the pack link." I don't know." I replied because hon
My heart felt squeezed when my mate slapped my hand away. The pain was more heart wrenching than I would have felt If fed wolfsbane." Eeer, I think we should leave and have the two of you talk in private." My sister said, her eyes darting anywhere else but not my face.Great. Just great. After getting me into shit with my mate, now she won't help me clear the misunderstanding but would rather run away?How marvellous!" Yeah, this should be our cue to leave the lovebirds alone." Leo seconded and I looked at him with an unbelieving expression.Him too? He wants to flee and leave me alone with my mate?What a traitor!The two of them left the room, closing the door behind them.The room fell into an awkward silence. I didn't Know what to say to her and she said nothing, just looking at me with those eyes filled with pain." Werewolf girl, it's not what you think. What she meant…"" I certainly have a name which I clearly told you about. I am no werewolf girl." My mate spat and I gritte
I never knew that the truth I was asking for could hurt this much. My heart hammered in my chest as a pang of pain hit every nerve of my being.I felt like someone was stabbing my heart repeatedly, making my heart bleed.My eyes stung with tears but I fought not to cry In front of the Lycan King. Why did it hurt so much to hear that he already has a Mate? Was I hoping for him to not have a mate at all? When did I become so selfish?These kinds of questions filled my head and I didn't have any answers to justify why I was feeling so much pain. All I knew was that Gideon admitting that he already found his mate did hit sit well with me.Of course I wasn't going to let him know tvsf it hurt me to hear that. Smiling, albeit bitterly,I mustered all the courage I could get to congratulate him." That's great." Gideon said nothing after I said my congratulations, making me feel awkward." Where is she?" I found myself asking. I don't even know why I am asking her whereabouts, maybe to mask
The doctor checked on me and it was confirmed that nothing went wrong with me.The doctor finally allowed me to go back to the house. Gideon personally carried me back to the house princess style.The people watched us, making me conscious of our current situation." I am fine now,you can put me down." I complained to only have Gideon cock his brows at me." People are watching and are likely to have a wrong understanding about our relationship." I tried to reason with him to only have him ignore me." Your highness!" I cried hoping that he could at least listen to me. He might not have a problem, but I was embarrassed. Not to mention he has a mate now, it would be unpleasant to have her see him carrying me so intimately." It's Gideon werewolf girl,I won't repeat that again." He corrected,his voice was not harsh, on the contrary, it held a teasing hint.His answer made me roll my eyes at him. Was that the important point here? I needed him to put me down since I didn't want people to
