" His Royal highness Alpha Zavier is here." informed one of the maids bowing down.

Mother Eleanor nodded, standing up to meet her mate.

" Honey, how's she ?" asked the father king.

Cold and scared that's what she felt whenever she gained back her consciousness."You're majesty, we can not do anything.. Her body couldn't handle all the changes your mark made her go through and she won't be able to bear the mating process tonight we suggest to wait and see.""Leave." he ordered sternly to which they kneeled and left.His mother looked at the little girl sadly, she's too young and her fragile body couldn't handle the marking."Everyone." growled Zanthus.Eleanor looked at him hesitantly "I won't leave her." she responded."She's my mate i will take good car

He asked not because he didn't hear her but the fact that she was bold enough to say such a thing surprised him."What you heard.... your majesty." she whispered now her voice small as the reality of what she said and is saying hit her like a mountain.His hand immediately found her cheeks cupping them painfully he growled fiercely, that's when she knew nothing will save her this time from the monster sitting right next to her, she flinched, tears gathering in her eyes as the intensity of the situation sent fear into her."Y..your majesty." she whimpered through the tears, her voice muffled by his painful hand holding her face into place."Remind me who are you talking to?" he asked calm and composed which added to her fear."I beg your forgiveness, it just slipped." she apologized in fear as tears gathered in her eyes from the fear of what's awaiting her."Do you think apologizing will save every time?" he spoke calmly trying not to show her a glimpse of his
