Matteo I gripped the armrest tightly, observing Britney swiftly closing in on Freya, and anxiety began to gnaw at me. A sigh of relief escaped me as my mate skillfully evaded her. However, the relentless onslaught from Britney persisted, effortlessly dodged by Freya. As the skirmish unfolded, my concerns for Freya diminished; she strategically used her intellect, giving me confidence that she aimed to tire out her opponent and strike back when necessary. It seemed she was the type of fighter who valued precision over wasting energy on unnecessary hits. A smug expression on Freya's face indicated her readiness to retaliate, catching Britney's attention and causing her to pause briefly. Though it was short-lived, as Freya quickly closed the distance, poised with a clenched fist, ready to take down her adversary. Yet, Britney anticipated the move, stepping back just in time. I couldn't deny Britney's skill, but what surprised me was when Freya landed a left jab on her face. Britney sta
Freya Does Clay like me? I initially thought he and Alec were just teasing me. I am aware of the rejection he experienced from a female Lycan two years ago. It was confirmed that I couldn't move an inch when I stumbled upon them kissing and making out. I was certain she was his first, considering he was still very young. What baffles me is how he recognized her as his mate when he didn't have a wolf at the time of rejection. Clay is truly exceptional. He acquired his wolf only last year, just before turning 17, earning him the position of Joric's future beta. Britney isn't suited for the role, not because she's a she-wolf, but simply because she's the beta's daughter. Despite having a wolf, she lacks proficiency in combat. "Clay..." I uttered as I noticed his expression falter until his lips met mine. I like him. He could be the right one for me. He's been a constant presence in my life for as long as I can remember, and choosing him as my mate doesn't feel wrong. I welcomed the kis
Matteo "Why won't she sit here so we can have a conversation? I was still upset that she kissed another man, even though she knew she was mine. What was so appealing about that future beta that she chose him over me—a prince and a future king? Jealousy consumed me, especially upon discovering that Clay was her first kiss. I sensed it the moment our lips met. She seemed unsure of how to react, and that mutt took away her first kiss from me. Despite my imperfections, I've had intimate encounters with a she-wolf and a female Lycan beyond mere kissing. However, I thought it would be special if I were her first kiss. I desired to be the first man to do everything with her, so I warned her to follow my lead, but she remained defiant. I didn't realize she could be so stubborn. This wasn't the Freya I knew—the one who always kept her head down. "Sit, Freya," I insisted again. "No," she retorted. "Why can't you just sit there?" "I didn't want to sit on the bed your woman occupied just a l
Freya Oh, my goddess, how did he find out? I felt guilty when he revealed that Clay had been my first kiss. It was the truth, but I never anticipated he would discover we were mates. I had already given up hope that he would ever find out about us. That's why I was willing to initiate a relationship with Clay. I knew he had faced rejection, and no mate awaited him. But now that Matteo was claiming me, I felt an instant pang of sympathy for Clay. It was because I knew, deep in my heart, that I would choose my mate over him. Matteo was visibly upset, and I could sense that. I was scared and concerned that he might do something terrible to Clay, and I disliked that. He was in the dark about everything. Our conversation concluded after I told him I hated him and began to cry. I only did that to test him, to see if he would feel remorse and try to console me. And when he did, I already knew I had succeeded. I had found a way to get what I wanted. "I'm going home now," I declared, not ta
Matteo I enjoyed conversing with Freya; she's quite innocent, and I'm confident that Calvin and the others have already taken a liking to her. When she quickened her pace, I decided to give her some space and discreetly follow. Initially, like everyone else, I perceived her as fragile. Witnessing her unexpected display of strength in a fight changed that perception. Even before discovering she was destined to be mine, I felt a certainty, and even my inner beast concurred. "Frey," the Alpha's son, an idiot, called her. Why does everyone address her so informally while I can't? No, it's because I prefer to address her differently, acknowledging our mate bond. Pausing, I observed the idiot's actions towards my mate, with Calvin doing the same. However, Joric's move was a mistake; he began claiming Freya as his mate. What's wrong with him? Then, his father intervened. Knowing he wouldn't choose Freya as the pack's Luna due to his perception of her weakness, I almost laughed at his son's
Third Person Matteo observed the intense confrontation between Joric and Clay. He acknowledged the strength of both combatants, recognizing the potential for either to assume the role of the other's beta. Despite Clay's current beta status, Matteo sensed that he possessed the capability to ascend to the position of Alpha. In their human forms, despite Joric's seniority, Clay exhibited a formidable fighting prowess and a physique that matched Joric's. Well-trained and disciplined, Matteo wouldn't be surprised if Clay, the prospective beta, managed to surpass his future alpha. Joric declared, "Freya is mine, Clay. She's my mate," surprising everyone. All eyes turned to Freya, who lowered her head in embarrassment, bewildered by the unexpected revelation. Observing the unfolding drama, Freya sought guidance from Matteo, whose gaze communicated an unspoken message. In response, Clay retorted confidently, "Freya already has her mate, and as far as I know, it isn't you," directing a smil
Freya I'm going to get it. I saw my mom and dad were both shocked and I had a feeling that they would feel hurt because they found out about it this way. Why does Matteo have to do it? Well, I know why, it was because of this stupid Joric who kept on announcing that I am his. When I went home after that night, it was when Matteo found out that I was his. I didn't manage to tell my parents about us. I didn't know how I was going to tell them and I didn't want to scare them. I mean, being the prince's mate is something we didn't expect. I was more than OK with either Clay or Alec, but the moon goddess gave me a prince and a future king. "We all knew who was the champion of this tournament. Tomorrow, a celebration will be held for the ending of the tournament and some prizes for the champion and a few consolation prizes courtesy of the palace." my mate said after putting me down and announced that I am his. "Yes, your highness," Beta Jack said, smiling. "The omegas were preparing for
Matteo Freya has a point and it calmed my beast. I admit that I felt hurt when she told me that she had not told her parents about us yet. Thinking about how surprised the pack was earlier, she has a good reason not to rush things between us. She had been bullied and even if she was not a pushover, I still need to consider that she was hesitant towards me at first because of the fact that she had no scent and none of us could smell her. She was adopted. Calvin told me after he asked about her around the pack. That may be the reason why the others didn't care about her, plus the fact that she had no scent. What made me think was, why can't she just tell them that she has her wolf? When she fought with Britney, she indirectly told Jack about that, but I don't think he took it seriously or that any of them believed her. "She left." Calvin said, "I told Kevin to follow her." he added and I nodded. "What happened?" he asked again. I sighed before I sat back in bed and told him what had
Freya I am the happiest. Everything has ended. King Marco had died. After his fated mate died, he’d gone feral. He couldn’t think properly and just went on a rampage. Maybe many would think how come he was like that when he already marked someone else. But the truth is, he never was. His mark was from his true mate and everything that everyone was seeing was just a spell cast by his mate. She’s strong because she managed to pull that for a very long time. They had not deceived not just one person but everyone in the palace. All along, they both used Ronaldo as a diversion from their plan. So there will be someone who will take the blame or become their scapegoat when they decide to release the spell. Unfortunately for them, my mother was also a witch that specialized in rejecting spells. It was what she taught me when I was a child. I don’t know if she sees the future though. He made my adoptive parents come and get me to where they found me even before it happened. And the portal
Matteo ‘I’ll take care of the witch,’ Freya told me through our link and ran away. I know that she’s strong, she’s a silver wolf, so I don’t have to worry about her. But she’s my mate and I couldn’t help but feel that way. I had to settle things with Marco about what he did to my father, so I ran to him. He and the witch were together and even if I had to deal with her because of what he did to my mother, I knew that my mate would want to have a piece of her too. Another is, she will be able to handle her since she was also a witch herself. “You dare to fight me? I took care of you and this is how you repay me?” Marco said while he was waiting for me. I could feel King being so angry, he was uneasy this past few weeks and I wonder why. Then earlier, he told me that he felt that a war was coming and this was it. Marco shifted and ran, meeting me halfway. His Lycan was big, but mine was even bigger. He may have the power of kingship, but I am the son of a true king. And without a wor
Third Person “This is insane, I never thought that the time when I had to fight the palace would come.” Calvin said, “My father had fought for it, defended everyone inside it and here I am, fighting the king himself.”” he added. “Just as I never thought that the father I know and grew up with was not actually my father.” Matteo replied, “That I thought I was the king but wasn’t.” Everyone looked at him, they were in Marcus’ mansion having their preparations in attacking the palace. After they found out that Rapha had been captured, Matteo and the others went back to the mansion and talked to Marcus. He was furious and at the same time, worried for the defense advisor. He called Calum and asked him to gather their warriors. “Yes, my Lord.” he replied and left. Matteo followed him with his gaze and so did the others. Marcus noticed it so he said, “He has been with me for a very long time now. Right after I left the palace to be exact.” “And he never left you?” Matteo asked, curiousl
Third PersonThey went back to the Crimson Pack later. They are all speechless and can’t think straight because of the revelations that Marcus, the Lycan rogue, claiming to be Matteo’s father, had told them. They couldn’t believe, especially Calvin and James, that Rapha had been lying to them all this time. They never expected him to know so much about the past story as he was always quiet. The only time that they saw them talking was whenever he was with the previous queen, but they didn’t think anything suspicious because King Marco always asked his mate to go to him and do some palace business.“Let’s just call this a day,” Freya said. She knew how feeling down everyone was because of the things that they needed to take in one go. She herself couldn't believe that the palace had so many secrets. She looked at Camila and found her head down while Alec was holding her hand. “Camila, none of these things should affect you. You know nothing about it,” she told her.“But my uncle–” she
Freya“You are my son.” The Lycan rogue said. I looked at Matteo and I didn't think that he could still understand everything that this man in front of us was saying. Calvin and James were shocked as well. I mean all of us were. Just what in the world was happening? I looked at the man again and I saw nothing but sorrow on his face.I looked at Camila to check whether she knew anything about this but by the shocked look on her face as well, I could tell that she had no idea about it. Only Rapha knew this and he didn’t tell Matteo. He even worked with the king, whom he had a good relationship with. Goddess, King Marco trusted him!“This is hard for you, I know that,” the man continued. “But believe it or not, I have no intention of harming any of you.” “What kind of joke are you pulling?” Matteo said angrily. “I am telling the truth,” the man replied,“What makes you think that we’re going to believe you?” Calvin couldn’t help but asked,“You would have been dead by now if I had been
MatteoWe were about to attack the enemy's hideout but before that, Rapha called and asked me for something impossible. He said someone wanted to talk to me and, if possible, I had to be calm. How the hell am I going to stay calm when I find out that it was my uncle who wanted to have a word with me? This is insane and I don’t know if I am going to do what he said. He also told me not to tell dad about it and decided after I heard what my uncle needed to tell me.“What if it was a trap?” Calvin asked,“Will Rapha put you into that kind of situation?” James asked too. I looked at my mate and she was quiet. I wanted to know what she thought so I waited for her reply.“I would want to believe in Rapha,” she said, which made everyone look at her. “I know I barely know him, but I never feel threatened or scared whenever I am with him. And look at Camila, she’s with us. He would never put her life in danger. We saw how he was and how he looked when we had no idea where she was just recently
Third Person I lost the challenge and my title was handed over to Marco. I had to control myself after that because he marked my mate as soon as he assumed the throne. I was planning on getting her back and everything that he took from me, but I had no one to back me up. Everyone was siding with my father although they didn’t like Marco, but for the simple reason that he was not the first born. I tried to gather some alliances within the palace but I failed. They believed Marco and after a few more weeks he already had their loyalty. I lay low before I left the palace. I became a rogue and even if I was alone, no one dared to get their hands on me since they felt that I am strong. Driven by my anger, I tried to gain alliances outside the palace. I managed to get a spy inside and he reported everything to me. I didn’t know that I would be able to get his support though. I didn’t know why he decided to help me as well. But I am thankful that he did, because if not for him, I wouldn’t
Third PersonThey are relaxing. Just what was wrong with them that they managed to conduct a tournament and enjoyed it? Don’t they feel threatened at all? I think I need to make them feel the threat that was about to come to them. I can’t wait to see the agonizing look on their faces. They took what was rightfully mine, so I will do the same. My title and my mate, the chance of having my own family. He should have been my son and not his. I should have been the one who would pass the throne to MY SON and NOT HIM!“My Lord,”“Are you sure about that?” “Yes, my Lord. They actually had a mini-tournament in the Crimson Pack and were all enjoying themselves. I don’t think they have any idea about us yet.” Calum, my right-hand man said. He reported to me about what was going on with Matteo and his mate. I had to admit that he had been living a good life, trying to follow what his father had taught him. But I am not going to let him do as he pleases. I had to do something about his calmnes
FreyaAlpha Jake has a point. We can’t leave that possibility out of the equation. If there is something the enemy needs, it is a hideout away from the eyes of any species which they can move freely without hesitation. They need somewhere away from the eyes of humans as well, because we all know how humans' mouths are. They will definitely spread about whatever they find in the woods or anywhere they have been to or seen things from.“Then I am going to check it out with my warriors, let someone from one of yours who knows the place come with us and lead the way.” Matteo said, Alpha Jake nodded his head and thanks to him, we might be able to end everything sooner. If what he said was true and we apprehended them in one go, then I hope we will end Matteo’s uncle’s madness in no time.“I didn’t want to get ahead of myself but I want you to be ready as well.” I told him and the two looked at me confused. “If what you think is correct, I’m sure that our enemy had already planned their esc
