Neil’s POV “Ryan! Get your ass out of the ballroom this second! I am waiting by the front door!” Sometimes I was really glad to be a werewolf, so I had the ability to use the mind link, like right now. I know I must look like a complete douchebag for running out of the ballroom and leaving Alice standing on the dance floor all on her own, but honestly, I was pretty much on autopilot. Not even a moment passed when my Beta showed up next to me and not even breathing hard, so I guess he was following me before I even mind liked him, “What is going on Neil? You never sound frantic, but a moment ago I could swear there was a hint of panic in your voice.” Well, pretty much there was no argument for me to tell him on that note, because I truly was panicking inside my head. In a way everything would make so much more sense if my suspicions were correct but on the other hand it just complicates everything. I can remember all my dreams vividly. They were speaking about a woman it would be har

Neil’s POVAll around me there was screaming, running, shouting… I was still standing where we were a few moments ago with Alice and the moment that screaming began my wolf started yelling in my head that I was an imbecilic and I should locate Alice right this moment, so as an obedient human I did just that, started trailing behind her lingering smell.I knew I was getting closer to her because her smell was getting stronger, and from nowhere a smell of rotten flesh suddenly hit me. Rogues! The moment I smelled them I started running. If I could smell them, that meant my mate was in danger, most likely surrounded by a group of them. Now I know she did not get her name for nothing, but still it was my job to protect her and keep her safe.Realization hit me that I was pretty close to the border and even though I was worried about my mate, I could still not help it but wonder what she was doing so close to the border. I rounded a few more trees and suddenly she came into view, but she w

Neil’s POVI am trying to understand this weird turn of events, I really am.First, I was trying to find my mate really fucking hard but was unable to find her. Then I stopped looking and I found her. I was trying to uncover the secret of the mysterious ruthless Alpha princess and once I found her, she first turned out to be my mate, her wolf is the one that is haunting all my dreams and now I get to see her in all her ruthless glory.Now if you ask me if this turn of events is good luck or bad luck, my answer would be, I have no fucking clue. Maybe after a few hours or maybe even days I would be able to give you an answer but right now I was both worried for my mate and in awe at the same time of her courage, fearlessness, and elegance on the battlefield. Do not get me started on those pink things she was wearing and were making all her curves so much more evident.She was a really magnificent woman and so was her wolf, Lily.As I kept my eyes on my mate, I realized how stupid I was

Neil’s POV What I said, I meant it with every fiber in my body. Right now, I was sure every man in the audience, Alpha or not, wanted to have my mate for themselves. Well, too bad that I was a selfish bastard who did not like to share let alone give someone what was mine. So, if you need me to clarify, Alice was mine and I was not letting her go. She might not yet be completely on board with the idea of having me as her mate, but she would come around. I was sure of it. And do not get me started on the kiss we just shared. It was one of those kisses you read about in books or see in the movies. But I have never experienced it before, well, sure enough I have also never kissed my mate before so no wonder it was as explosive as it was. But sadly, it ended too fast. We had people watching us though so I knew I had to cut it short and continue in the privacy of our rooms if she would allow me to continue. What surprised me was the shock that could be seen on her face when I told her th

Neil’s POV Her words were like balm to my ears. I was thinking she would change her mind as soon as I left her side and for a moment it really did look like she changed her mind about accepting me as her mate. But then I saw her speaking to her second in command, Jessy if I remember correctly and even Ryan could see wheels spinning in my head when he spoke, “If there is anyone that can get some sense into your stubborn mates head it would be her best friend. So do not worry. She will see soon enough that you belong together.” And his words were confirmed a few moments later when she confidently strolled across the ballroom and straight to my side. She grabbed my hand in a hurry, and I did not miss the mischievous look Ryan gave her before she spoke, “I am really sorry, but your Alpha will be busy for the next few hours at least. Please make sure no one interrupts him unless it is a life and death situation.” He just smirked her way and gave her a nod. And before I could ask what was
