Mateo.I return to the house I built in the human realm. Every second of my existence, I think about her. Why? Why would she do such a thing to me? Why would she pick that hideous human over her mate? I’m sure she overheard my voice that day. I keep thinking about it all without obtaining an answer. If I have know this is going to happen, I will not have let her get away from me. I’ll have to keep her close. I keep going to that building, hoping to run into her, but I never do. I didn’t see her. I’m not leaving this world until I find her."My king, I am worried about your health," Josh adds. "You haven’t eaten or rested because you’ve been thinking about the queen. You keep looking for her as well. You don’t have to be concerned about her. I’m sure we’ll see her again soon.""You mean you will find her soon? When and where?" I inquire fiercely. "We’ve been looking for her. Do you know how many days it is now? Do you know how agitated I’ve been? You keep saying we’ll find her shortly.

Mateo. "Let me introduce myself properly to you, my darling queen," I scoff. "My name is Mateo Morrison, and I am the CEO of Royal Mateo Incorporated Ltd. I’m also the Lycan Blood kingdom’s monarch, and you’re my mate, whom I’ve long wanted to meet."I catch my mate’s eye, and her amazement at finding out who I am is evident."You are what?" She inquires. "Are you the infamous Lycan king? Wow! You are real. You are not just a myth. I can't believe this. I can’t believe I’m a mate to such a cruel and evil king."I know everyone thinks of me as a beast, but I have never done anything to harm an innocent person.How does she know about me when we don’t associate with each other? How did she find out about my existence? What in the world is going on?"I am not evil, and I have never hurt an innocent soul," I mutter. "It pains me to hear you say that about me, mate. It hurts to hear you say I’m unkind.""Don’t you dare to call me your mate?" She responds by firing back. Her face is filled

Sophia. "Shall we go, my love?" He inquires. I quiver at his deep voice. I have always thought that I don’t need a partner. I don’t want a man who can easily weaken me. When he reveals his true identity, I am taken aback. He is the most honorable, noble, and strong Lycan to have lived. My mother tells us about him all the time, but I never think he exists. My mom is constantly bluffing, in my opinion. But here he is, in front of me, begging to be loved. His presence is threatening. Nobody could have predicted that I would have a terrifying existence as my mate. Everything about him frightens me. He terrified me so much that I almost wet myself. I’m terrified, but I have to keep my cool in front of him. He tells me he loves me, even though he has no idea who I am. This is the first time a man has expressed his feelings for me. I’ve not experienced anything like this before. I’m going to be honest with myself. Everything changed for me ever since I see him at the club and Athena, my wo

Sophia. How did he know I am speaking with my wolf?"Is there something wrong between you both?""No," I finally manage to reply. "There is nothing wrong. You don't have to worry about me.""I will," he assures. "I'll be concerned if you're upset. I always want to make you happy.""Thank you so much. Your care is appreciated, but I am OK.""Okay, if you say so."I sit in his office corner, watching him while he works. I see him dealing with the files on his table. Josh comes in and out, and every time he does, he looks at me evilly. I know he dislikes me, and I dislike him as well. He despises my gut for being impolite to his monarch, but I don't care. No one requests that his king imprison me. Who wants to be the mate and queen of his king? If I have the opportunity to run, I will not hesitate. For him, even my wolf is willing to revolt against me."Are you feeling okay?" He inquires. "Are you sure you don't need anything?""I don't need anything for now," I say. "I’m okay.""I think

Sophia.“You can’t do this to us.” Those elderly guys scream. “We are the company’s shareholders. Do you really think you can discard us that easily? Stop kidding! Mateo Limited will not exist without us.”They scare him by saying the firm will cease to exist without them. I stand there and listen to them slander him. I’m less concern. It makes no difference to me.“Oh, really?” he inquires. “Do you think you are the ones who make my company thrive just because you are a shareholder? You seem to have gotten it incorrect. My firm will work fine without you parasites. You are all thieves and greedy people.” He’s enraged.I can sense his power. I can see how he battles to keep his fury under control. He restrains himself from killing them. I can only imagine what would happen if this happened in his kingdom. I’m sure he’ll slaughter them mercilessly. “You steal a lot of my company’s resources and then threaten me? You should count yourself lucky that I did not kill you, but I assure you
