Part 7
"What?!" I exclaimed, sitting up in my bed, not caring about the covers slipping off my body. The sound made my head throb, a hand rushing to cradle it from the side. "Have they lost their mind?"
The housekeeper twisted her lips. "You cannot blame them. It's the only way through which the Palace May save face if your heat incident gets out in public."
"But..." I exhaled, rubbing my hands over my face, knees pulled together. I couldn't help but recall Axel's words from the night before. The Alpha was reluctant to accept me as his mate and looked prepared to reject me on the spot. "He doesn't want me, Beth. That's the reason he pulled me away from the crowd and in the gardens."
Frustration bubbled in my stomach, fingers clutching at the ends of the duvet and picking at loose threads. "Why would the

What could he possibly want to say that he hadn't already? I bitterly thought under my breath. From the corner of my eyes, I saw my uncle hide a grimace on his face, barely managing a nod."That can be arranged."Axel cleared his throat as if sensing the hesitancy in the tone. "We will be in the Palace gardens."My uncle whooshed out a breath, raising the cup of tea to his mouth and nodding delightedly. Of course. He must be embarrassed due to the incident last night and didn’t want a repeat of that.“Alpha Axel, let me tell you, my daughter is thrilled to be betrothed to you,” My aunt cut in, almost gushing, while I resisted the urge to flinch. Thrilled was not

Every pulse of my heart was in pain, an ache between my ribs that spread like wildfire, clogging my throat. It stung—a loveless marriage with the Pack Alpha.Those words kept on haunting me; I was feeling unbelievably nauseous.No words came out of my mouth, tongue rigid, arms reaching to wrap tightly around my body. My parents had always been the couple I looked up to. They made me believe in true love, and I wanted that.This was not happening. Then again, I should have known he would never commit to me.The Alpha was not looking for a mate; that much was evident from his behaviour these past days. Still, I had

I smelled the Alpha before I saw him, the earthly musk mixed with the undoubted scent of blood. My body froze at the entrance of the door, watching a gigantic wolf in front of me. A low, breathy whine escaped my lips, the hair on the back of my neck standing up as the realisation cemented inside.It's true. He's my mate. My wolf could feel it from inside, the way it immediately responded to his scent.Alpha Axel appeared sinister and equally gorgeous, the thick black fur a coat on his body, glinting in the rays, a bushy tail. His eyes were sparkling, almost golden at the edges with olive undertones, sharp and piercing. The Alphas paws were almost twice my size, pushing against the grass, almost digging in.&

/Axel's POV/"What do you think about joining me tonight for drinks, Alpha Axel?"The question, almost a hushed whisper, rang in my ears as Lukas gleamed at me. We were on the way to hunt, and the eldest son of Millers wouldn't stop clinging to my side.Several times I had to remind myself that we would be family soon. His sister is my mate. It's natural for him to want to know me, but there was something off about the Alpha. I could not talk for more than a minute without feeling annoyance building inside.Looking over my shoulder, I noticed my beta was busy chatting with the guards. No help. I let out a sigh, wetting my bottom lip."Afte

The Alpha's second gift was a brown jacket, which had a pretty detailing of the dark brown zipper, heavy and fluffy in my hands. If I hadn't recognised it immediately as a jacket Axel had worn on the first day, I'd have recognised it from the thick scent clinging to its fabric–so strong that I could practically smell it through the distance.He hovered above, waiting for me to try on, standing with his hips cocked and brow arched. I sank on the couch, gripping the material in between my hands. My cheeks flamed as I thought of the marks on my arms, especially the nails marks from my aunt and my cousin.What would he think? He may despise me even more. It's natural Alphas do not accept a single mark on their omega except the one given by them. Judging by his views, Axel won't be different at all.

The garden below my room was almost haunting without the plants fully grown. So I decided to change that. I have been working on it, cleaning up the mess and restoring the area, hoping to have the flowers bloom by next season.What's the use? I thought under my breath, fully knowing that I would be leaving by the end of this month. As an omega courted by a Pack Alpha, I did not have much time compared to the other omegas.With my knees digging into the mud, I kept on mixing soil with proper nutrients for the freshly emptied flower beds. My brows furrowed together when I saw a shadow loom over, mouth pressed in a thin line.It was none other than my uncl

/Axel's POV/I could not sleep, my eyes boring into the ceiling with harsh breath. There was this restlessness inside that I could not explain, my legs itching to get up again and do something after such an eventful day. Eventful. I scoffed under my breath as I thought about it. About her. The reason behind a storm whirling inside of me.Princess Lana.A groan slipped past my lips as I slowly sat up, resting against the headrest and bringing a hand to my forehead. I could feel a migraine building behind the temples at the mere thought of the peculiar and infuriating omega. How could she be so casual about courting?It's a huge deal. Most of the o

While walking by his side, I learned quickly that Alpha Axel didn't like to talk very much. We spent the next few minutes walking through the market, the Alpha in front and leading the way with me following behind more hesitantly, my eyes perpetually scanning surroundings to take in new sights.Along the way, I became familiar with Axel's irritated sigh whenever I stopped to study something, which, to be fair, was quite a lot.I couldn't help it, though, as everywhere I looked, there was something new. All these years being caged inside my room made me miss out on several things. I had no idea what it felt like going to a market on weekend, hand in hand with a friend or a family member.
