Instead of feeling relief, I winced at the sound of the prince’s voice. I guess I should have gone into hiding if I wanted to avoid him for real instead of just sitting here on a bench in the garden out in the open.

Consider it my mistake…

Was he…covering for me just now?

“Your Highness…” Madame Sand said with clear surprise before she quickly bowed to show her respect.

It would have been a disaster for me if she found out the truth that I had run out here to escape the prince. Although I didn’t think that it was my fault, I also knew that Madame wouldn’t think the same way. As far as I was concerned, this was all Prince Leonard’s fault for telling me all those things all of a sudden. It was shocking enough for me to believe that he was a wolf, not to mention everything he told me about Ultimate Alphas and how honorable maidens are supposed to produce them.

Then there was that super important detail on the three princes’ battle for the throne where the deciding factor would be whi

  • The Alpha Prince's Purchased Maid   Sex Education

    Just referring to the intimate acts of love as mating made my body shiver. However, it seemed to be the usual term used to describe sex for the alphas and that was probably because of the wolves inside them. “The king would never make such a mistake. Even if you haven’t mated with the prince yet, the time would come soon, perhaps as soon as tonight,” she said sternly. “I don’t…” I began protesting. “Don’t worry, my dear. I know what you are worried about, and it is absolutely normal. Everyone is scared of the unknown and that is precisely why I am here for you. Every honorable maiden shared the same fear and worries that you are having now before their first time mating with one of the princes. It is completely normal…” she said reassuringly. I wanted to scream at her that she was getting it all wrong. The main issue wasn’t my fear of losing my virginity at all. It may be the case that I was scared and worried about it because I have never gone all the way with a man before; howev

  • The Alpha Prince's Purchased Maid   The Rules of Mating

    I roughly knew how animals mated and how wolves mated was probably not very different from how dogs do it. “I assume that you are inexperienced but there is nothing for you to worry about. Just trust the prince and leave everything in his capable hands. The prince is extremely experienced,” the madame said with firm nod of her head.“Ok…” I murmured.I was not quite sure how I should be feeling about the fact that Prince Leonard was apparently ‘extremely experienced’. More experience might be better than no experience, I guess?“Also, the use of any form of contraceptives is strictly forbidden. The prince should not possess any contraceptives and I am sure that you don’t have any either. For the goal of producing an ultimate alpha as soon as possible, the king has put a strict ban on contraceptives. Unfortunately, it has been proven again and again that even without the use of contraceptives, it is extremely difficult for a woman to conceive…” she said before she heaved a loud and lo

    “Right…” I murmured to show her that I understood. Does that mean that Prince Leonard will be involved with someone else or maybe he’s already involved with someone else? “That is all for today. I’m sure that that is a lot of information for you already. Do you have any questions?” she asked. “No. Thank you,” I replied although I had an endless list of questions. The madame smiled at me before she nodded her head a few times. She approached me and then I felt the slight pressure of her hand on my shoulder.“Good luck, Mila. The future and fate of this kingdom is in your hands,” she said, and I could see tears swimming in the depth of her eyes. I wanted to tell her just how misplaced her trust was but all I could do was smile awkwardly. …**Later that night**I wished and then prayed that the sun would not set, and night would not arrive. Once again, no one bothered to listen or answer my prayers. I watched the sunset from the balcony of my new room. It was honestly a very beauti

  • The Alpha Prince's Purchased Maid   Fearing the Prince

    Madame Sand’s words bothered me although I should have known that there was no way that the princes would have only one lover. This place that I was sitting in was practically their harem and I had no idea why a place like this still exists in this modern world; however, things worked very differently here from what I was used to. The image of Prince Leonard with another woman flashed through my mind and suddenly there was a sickening feeling deep in my core. I winced as if the thought of it brought pain to my mind as my chest tightened slightly. What am I even thinking?I had no idea how long I was swallowed up in my troublesome thoughts until I heard a firm knock on my door. This time, it had to be Prince Leonard. I jumped out of my seat as my heart began to race wildly in my chest. “Yes?” I called out as I quickly made my way to the door.Although, I thought that I had dreaded seeing him, now that he was standing right in front of my door, it seemed like my feet couldn’t carry m

    “Mila…” Prince Leonard called my name and his voice sounded so gentle that it made me feel guilty to the core.“Y-Yes?” I replied with a stutter. “Can you give me your hand? I just want to hold it,” he asked and then he flashed me a very charming smile when he saw me hesitate. “Ok…” I murmured.Slowly, I slipped my hand into his opened one. The warmth of his hand immediately enveloped mine as his fingers curled around my hand and held it. Although things were supposed to be different between us tonight, the touch of his hand on mine felt comforting as always. “Tell me what you think about what Madame Sand told you,” the prince urged as his blue eyes studied my face intently. I was supposed to bring this up to tell him that I wasn’t at all interested so I was very surprised that it was the prince who brought this up first. “To be honest, I think there’s been a very big misunderstanding about this. I’m just a maid and that is how it should be. I don’t want to be an honorable maiden

    The moment he was done voicing his thoughts, his fingertip left my face completely. While I was still stunned and frozen in place, the prince got up from the sofa and stood up straight. He seemed very relaxed as he stretched before turning back to look down at me. “Let’s go, Mila…” he said invitingly as he stretched out a hand my way. “Go…where?” I asked with clear surprise.One surprise just led to another, and I was struggling to keep up with him. “Let’s go out…” he replied before he smiled cheerfully at me. The tension in the air evaporated in an instant and it felt like the hard conversation that we just had never happened in the first place. “Out? As in, to the gardens?” I asked to make sure that I understood him correctly. “No, out as in outside of the palace. You’ve never really seen the city, right?” he asked before he grinned at me. Was that allowed?My mind only wondered about that for the briefest of moments before my excitement took over. I had only gotten a glimpse

    His words kept me hanging and I couldn’t stop thinking about what the prince was about to say just now. A short while later, we arrived at the wall that separated the palace from the outside world. My heart began beating faster and faster in my chest. The light from the guard station at the gate poured into the car. There were so many guards at the gate and all of them saluted after recognizing the prince’s car. It seemed like everything was progressing smoothly and one of the guards was about to open the gates for us when a very large man stepped out into view. “Of all the days…” the prince murmured before he scoffed.The large man approached the prince’s side of the car bent down until his face was level with the car’s window. I gulped from nervousness as Prince Leonard opened the car’s window. My body stiffened but I was too scared to even look at the large man.“Where are you going, Prince Leonard?” a deep voice asked. “Out,” the prince replied without providing any details. “

    I think he’s told me something like that before and after spending some time with him, I was quite convinced that he could do that much; however, that wasn’t what I was asking. “I don’t mean it like that. I mean…when our minds are connected, can you tell what I’m thinking?” I asked in pure wonder. As for me, I couldn’t tell what he was thinking at all regardless of whether our minds were connected or not. He was just extremely hard to read and understand. My two dear friends told me that everyone thinks that he’s a “public mystery” and I could empathize with every single person who shared that view. “Should we give it a try?” the prince asked just when the car came to a stop at a red light.Give it a try?My arms immediately wrapped around myself protectively as I turned to glare at him. The last time that we gave it a try, he did…so many things to me…It took so much action just to get our mind to connect and then all we could do was communicate with each other. He called my name

    “Congratulations to us, you’re pregnant, Mila!” Prince Leonard announced excitedly.“I’m pregnant?” I asked more out of curiosity than out of surprise. Although I knew that the prince would never joke about something like this, I still found it hard to believe that I was suddenly pregnant.“That’s right, you’re pregnant, and that means we’re about to have another baby,” Prince Leonard said before breaking into another wide smile.“I’m…really pregnant?” I whispered as I struggled to wrap my head around the prince’s sudden announcement.“The doctor said that you might have been feeling tired because you’re in the early stages of pregnancy. I’m sorry that I hadn’t realized this sooner; otherwise, I would have kept all the ceremonies short so that you didn’t have to go through all of that when you’re feeling so tired,” the prince said apologetically as he took my hands into his. I kept staring at the prince as he buried the side of his face against the palm of my hand.“We’re about to hav

    “Have you eaten anything? Actually, that’s a very stupid question. I know that you haven’t really eaten anything because you haven’t had the time, right?” the Duchess asked knowingly.Although I didn’t want to admit it because I didn’t want to be an inconvenience to anyone, the Duchess was spot on correct that I hadn’t had the time or the opportunity to eat anything. The day had been so busy from early in the morning up until the evening, and everything seemed more important than filling my own stomach.“It’s fine, I’ll make sure to eat something when this reception is over,” I told her reassuringly before offering her a smile. Duchess Flavia only gave me a disapproving glare before shaking her head from side to side.“You look like you’re about to faint. It’s like I can see your face go pale even with all the makeup,” she said as she brought her face closer to mine to get a closer look at me.“I’m feeling fine,” I told her while I tried to convince myself that I wasn’t feeling light-

    "Your daughter looks like you," Prince Leonard commented."And I think that your son looks like you, and I'm sure that he will grow up into a great king," Regina said, and I could hear the confidence in her voice."Let me know if you ever need anything," the prince told her with a warm smile."You're always too kind. Please take good care of yourself and of Mila. Mila, please take care of our King," Regina said, turning to address me."I will," I replied shortly before finding myself smiling at her.Regina truly did look happier than the time when she lived in the palace. It felt like the shadow that had always been following her around and haunting her was no longer there. I could tell that she was no longer living under pressure, and it made her shine with happiness and freedom. It seemed that I didn't have to worry about her anymore.After some parting words, Regina led her daughter away from us so that we could converse with other guests. I had no idea how many conversations we ha

    Prince Leonard probably had no idea that it was the way his beautiful eyes looked at me and the way his alluring lips curved up into a smile that was responsible for making everything else fade away from my field of vision so that all I could do was focus on him."Thank you for making me your queen," I whispered softly and sweetly.The prince only nodded his head once before carefully placing the crown on the top of my head. When I was aware of the world surrounding us again, all I could hear was the thundering sound of applause that echoed in the royal hall...."Hang in there for just a little longer, Mila," the prince said before flashing me a teasing smile."I guess we're done with two out of the three parts of what we have planned for today," I mumbled before stifling a yawn. I had no idea why I felt so lethargic and sleepy, although it was only just early in the evening. So far, the prince and I operated as the perfect team to pull off two of our most important events of the day

    His words touched me like never before, and I could feel it in my heart and soul that I reciprocated his feelings and thoughts. I had never understood the concept of fated mates until I experienced it myself along with the prince. Our bond felt stronger and firmer than any endearing words of promise."I love you. I’ll love you forever," I said the words that came naturally to my mind.**Back to the present**When it came my turn to say ‘I do’, I found myself managing to say it without any difficulty. It must have been partly because I truly meant it when I vowed to be with the prince in sickness and in health, through thick and thin; however, I was certain that everything felt easier because I knew that we had a bond that even the heavens could never break."I do," I said firmly when it was my turn.When we shared the kiss to seal our wedding vows, I knew that what we had was something that was going to last forever until the end of our lifetimes....Our wedding ceremony in the churc

    I gave Logan's hand a slight squeeze before taking my first step forward into the church. I could feel everyone's eyes on me as I reminded myself to keep my head held high, curving my lips into one of my most beautiful smiles. Without any hesitation, I made my way forward down the aisle. The fact that each step forward brought me closer to the man waiting for me at the end of the aisle gave me the comfort and courage to continue on. I didn't even bother trying to identify faces that I might recognize in the crowd of guests present on both sides of me.It felt as if all my nervousness melted away completely when my eyes met Prince Leonard's. I’d always thought he looked amazingly attractive, but seeing the prince wearing an all-white tuxedo standing in front of the altar with such a loving smile on his face as he waited for me was out of this world. I felt my heart skip a beat in my chest, and it wasn't at all because of my nervousness. Everything and everyone around me slowly faded aw

    It was clear that everything was too extravagant for my own taste to the point where it must have been pretty obvious to Prince Leonard that I had no hand in the selection and design of the proposed decorations. "I'm actually fine with anything. I think everything they've chosen is very beautiful, and their work is a lot more professional than anything I could have done by myself," I admitted to the prince honestly."If that's the case, then fine, but if there's anything that you don't like, just tell them to take it out," the prince said firmly."I just think it's easier to let them sort everything out. It's enough for me that we'll be getting married and that Logan will be there to witness our union," I said while trying to keep my tone cheerful. I was certain that if I picked out anything by myself or intervened with the guest list, I would be bringing unwarranted complications and troubles that I didn't want to deal with."If that's what you say," the prince said after finally gi

    I should have known that the prince would never want to become the next king for his own personal gain. I found myself nodding my head naturally in agreement with his plan when I realized that I also had to play my part in contributing to the happiness of our son in the future.“I agree that that seems to be the easiest way. I guess if you become king, you can change the rules in whatever way you want,” I said while seeing more than a glimpse of hope.“It’s not going to be that easy. Many people on the committee are going to be against it, but this is our best shot. No matter what, we’re going to make this successful and change the rules of this country for the better,” the prince said, so motivatingly that I found myself feeling slightly excited.“I guess bringing change, especially big changes, isn’t going to be easy,” I said, but by then I couldn’t stop myself from smiling. In my mind, I had already envisioned such a bright future, and it gave me the greatest honor to be able to co

    “What is it?” I asked, feeling a sense of worry stir in the pit of my stomach.“I’m concerned about Logan,” the prince confessed in a whisper.“Concerned? What is there for you to be concerned about? Is something wrong?” I bombarded him with questions, thinking there might be a threat to Logan’s safety. I had no idea why I felt that way, but I just had a very bad feeling.“Remember when you asked me why I changed my mind about taking over the throne? I’m sorry, but I haven’t been entirely honest with you,” the prince said with a regretful look on his face.“It’s fine. It must have been hard for you,” I said understandingly while wondering what had the prince feeling so concerned. “What is it about Logan?” I asked as I started to frown with worry.“Logan is getting a lot better at controlling his transformations now, but he’s still too young for us to be sure about what will happen in his future,” Prince Leonard said.It was true that our son had improved tremendously at controlling hi
