Eric POV I had cringed internally when I had threatened Julia. I never wanted to do that to her, but I realized if I did not tell her bluntly that she was stuck here, she would have tried walking back to the city. And with the rogues that surround the kingdom, that would be tragic for all of us. I moved forwards, hearing her quiet footsteps behind me. They lacked confidence, like she was afraid to take a wrong step. I turned around, extending my hand to her, which she continued to ignore. Before I turned back, I noticed she was looking flushed again. “How are you feeling?” I asked. “Fine,” Julia replied coldly. I knew she was not fine. There was something wrong with her. “Why didn’t you tell me your birthday was today?” I asked her. “It did not seem overly important given everything that has been happening,” she replied. She paused for a moment, bending slightly as if she were experiencing pain. I took a

Julia POV My heart hurt, my stomach was twisting with what I had just heard. I could not understand what was happening. How could he not know she could have been pregnant? I could not stay here, I thought to myself, this hurt too much. There were too many questions and no answers. I walked over to the bed and laid down, pulling the inviting blanket over my chilled body. Feeling warmth roll over my body, I fell into a fitful sleep. So many things racing through my mind. Louise and Eric, Eric and me, wolves, Louise pregnant with Eric standing beside her. That last part of the dream caused me to wake suddenly with a gasp. I opened my eyes looking around the darkened room. I reached over and turned the light on the nightstand on. As I looked around the room, I screamed as I saw a figure off in the corner. Standing, the man walked over to me. Eric. “What the hell are you doing in here?” I asked grabbing my chest.

Julia POV I felt Eric pick me up and carry me bridal style out the hospital room door. As my body started to stiffen, Eric ran out the Pack hospital doors and towards the forest. “Please do not leave me,” I managed to mumble as I tried to breathe through the pain that was now encompassing my body. “I will not leave you,” Eric promised me as he reached a clearing. My body stiffened straight as a board in Eric’s arms forcing him to lay me on the ground. He kneeled beside me, “Just breathe, Julia; just breathe,” he kept murmuring as he kept trying to touch me. I tried to breathe, but all I could focus on was the pain. “Hold her in your arms,” I heard the doctor say. Eric picked my rigid body up as best he could. As he did, I felt a calming cross over me. “It is helping to ease her pain,” the doctor murmured, as he checked my vitals. “Why is this happening?” I heard Eric ask to the doctor. “I do not know. I do not know how we

Eric POV Julia’s wolf was stunning. She was a blessed white wolf. I did not know how, but I could see it before me. She was kissed by the Moon Goddess herself with a black star beside her right eye. It signalled that the wolf had a special gift. And that their birth was not of traditional descent. What that all meant, I would need to refresh myself with our history books. But for now, my wolf, Ken, wanted to play with his mate. We still had to be cautious. Julia was unaware of what was happening, and if anything, we would be keeping up with her to ensure she was safe. As we raced alongside of her wolf, I could see the strength that her wolf had. She was larger than a regular female wolf. Larger than a lot of male wolves. I tried to slow her down a few times, but her wolf was on a mission, and could not be swayed. We finally stopped at a lake, where she had stopped to sip the water. I was about to shift
Rejecting the Prince's Mate Chapter 27 - Mine!
Julia POV “Eric!” I screamed as he went down hard. I turned helplessly and saw men racing towards us. I was terrified. Were they the good guys? I had to trust they were. “Help him!” I yelled, as they moved around me and raced Eric towards the hospital. I do not know how, but I kept up with the men, “Eric, do not leave me,” I kept chanting, hoping he could hear me. We raced into the hospital and as we walked in, the Queen and King were waiting, “What happened?” the Queen demanded of me. “I do not know. We fought off wolves, and were walking back here when he passed out,” I said staring at his body as they dragged him away from me. “You fought off wolves?” the Queen stuttered looking at me. “I know,” I said to her turning away and moving to sit in a chair. Suddenly everything I had learned tonight hit me. Wolves were real. I was a wolf. I was real. Eric was real. Yet it was all surreal. The Queen moved closer to me, “

Julia POV The woman burst out laughing as she looked to Elizabeth, “You cannot seriously be entertaining this mere human, are you?” Louise demanded of Elizabeth. Carter stood a little taller and defensive of Elizabeth, while Elizabeth stepped forward. “Are you questioning my ability to identify the mate of my brother?” she questioned Louise. Louise’s smile faltered until she bowed to Elizabeth, “Of course not, my Queen, but you can appreciate my frustration at this woman somehow thinking she could be Eric’s mate,” Louise commented. “She is his mate. I already knew she was his mate. And she is a wolf, or have you lost your ability to scent a wolf with your alleged pregnancy?” Elizabeth stated to Louise. Louise paused to sniff, when she looked at me incredulously. “She has to be a witch! How could she have hidden her scent from all of us?” Louise yells, drawing the attention of others in the hall. I did not know what the big

Julia POV “What’s happening?” I cried out demanding to know what was wrong. All I got was being pushed out of the room by the nurse, with a growl. “Did you just growl at me?!?” I shouted slapping my hand on the door when it was shut in my face. Elizabeth came up to me, “What happened?” she asked gently. “I marked him, like you told me to. I waited a moment and then the machines went crazy,” I said as tears of frustration filled my eyes. “I am sure he is fine,” Elizabeth said, before I continued, “And then that nurse growled at me!” I declared still pissed off and confused by that. “Who growled at you?” Carter asked cautiously. I realized I was being childish, but I was distraught. “A nurse who pushed me from the room,” I said before looking at the closed door. “Nobody shuts a mate out of the room,” Elizabeth said as she stepped around me. “It is alright; I just want them to help him,” I said as Elizabeth wa

Eric POV I kept seeing flits of a movie in front of my eyes. Julia, my mate, my future. Louise, threatening me with taking my pup from me. Wait. Was Louise pregnant? I needed to find out and ensure the pup was not mine. Julia was my mate. I would not give her up. I could not give her up. I felt myself starting to wake up and moved my arm expecting to find Julia lying beside me. But all I felt were cold sheets. I slowly opened my eyes, looking around the room. It was empty. When I had fallen asleep, she was in my arms. Where would she have gone? I started to move, when the machine beside me started to go off. I looked down and saw that I was attached to machines. I moved to pull the IV from my arm, when the doctor rushed in. “Do not do that, Prince Eric. You need the medication inside that bag!” he declared.I slowed my movements, “Where is Julia?” I demanded of the doctor. He looked at me, distracted as he moved to ensure I had not
