The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 27: Worth it
Akiro’s Point of ViewMy phone rang once again and when it ended a few seconds later, it lit up, which meant there was another message. I ignored it again like I'd been doing for the past twenty minutes. It seemed Heli knew I wasn’t at campus today if he was calling me non-stop. He always calls me during my vacant and lunch time, so when I didn’t answer or reply to any of his messages and calls, it must’ve worried him. But I really couldn’t bring myself to face anyone right now. My mind’s still reeling from the boy’s words earlier. It kept on playing over and over my head and all I could do was listen to it. I thought things would be fine when people found out I’m gay, because almost everyone at our university is open-minded and is part of the community, but it turns out there’s still a few people who hold onto the belief that being a homosexual is a sin. I never thought I’d be subjected to one of the homophobic’s slurs and insults. I prepared myself to hear those words even thoug

Heli’s Point of View“I think you should talk to my grandparents next week.”I stopped on my track out of surprise. I turned to Akiro, raising an eyebrow at him. “What makes you suddenly think of that?”“Well...” He trailed off. “My birthday is in six weeks, and they were planning to throw a small celebration for me. I’ll invite my closest friends, and I want them to meet you. I don’t want my grandparents to be surprised that I invited you, so I decided it would be better if you'd try to be on their good side before my birthday comes. Is that alright?”I wanted to tell him I really don’t care about his grandparents and that I don’t want to act so nice just to get on their good side.But I don’t want him to get mad and disappointed at me, not when he seemed so excited at the prospect of introducing me to his closest friends. So I swallowed the urge to tell him it wasn’t alright and instead, smiled at him. The smile that makes him blush even though he already saw it multiple times.“Yes

Akiro’s Point of ViewAfter a few days of us preparing and rehearsing for Heli’s upcoming talk with my grandparents, the day had finally come. I met with Heli at the abandoned house where he went after buying the tea set he would give to my grandparents. Heldrix returned to their world the other day, so Heli was the only one I saw there when I arrived. He was wearing a simple black polo shirt and faded jeans. The shirt highlights his paleness and his brown eyes, which he always changed into whenever there were other people around us. He looked devastatingly handsome. This is so freaking unfair! He didn’t even look like he had prepared his outfit for this!“Hi,” he greeted me warmly with a small smile on his face. “Is it time?”I shook my thoughts away as I focused on Heli. Grinning playfully at him, I asked, “If you’re ready. Grandma will be done with lunch soon.”He nodded.I knew for sure he was not nervous. He didn’t tell me about it, but I know he doesn’t like my grandparents as

Heli’s Point of View I am the fifth prince of Regia Solaria, the youngest child of Vladimir Hath and Camilla Hera Lancaster, and the most powerful ice-wielder in Eldritch. I am handsome, charismatic, rich, intelligent, strong— every positive compliment there is, I am that. Most of all, I am brave. So why the fuck am I feeling nervous while sitting in front of two old human beings? Why do I have the urge to fidget like a goddamn schoolgirl who was facing their crush? They were sitting on the couch across from where I am. Sitting side-by-side with the old woman’s arms crossed against her chest and the old man sitting ramrod straight. They’re both glaring at me, along with a look of barely hidden contempt and distaste. I cleared my throat. “Can... I will explain to you what I meant when I said the one who... killed Aki’s parents wasn't from our kingdom?” Their eyes turned sharper, the contempt in them darkening even more at the mention of Akiro’s parents. “Yes. Give us yo

Akiro’s Point of ViewI couldn’t help but to lunge myself at Heli and wrap my arms around him after he finished telling me what they talked about. He looked really surprised that it took him a few seconds to return the hug. I heard him sigh before resting his head on my shoulder.“Thank you,” I mumbled against his chest.“For what?”“For talking to them,” I replied. “I know you don’t really care about their opinion, and that you’re only doing this for my sake. So thank you.”He hummed, but didn’t bother deigning a reply. Instead, he just burrowed deep into my neck, inhaling my scent like what he usually does when he’s hugging me. I didn’t mind, though it tickles me and gives me goosebumps. I can also smell his natural scent, which is really, really addicting.We stayed like that for a few minutes before I eventually pulled away. Heli didn’t want to let go at first, but at my insistence, he reluctantly loosened his hold on me.“Now,” I said. “Let’s go out?”He raised an eyebrow. “Where

Heli’s Point of ViewAs if it’s not enough that all these old vendors keep on interrupting Akiro and I’s date, this fucker just appeared out of nowhere and was introduced as Akiro’s childhood friend that he had lost connection with for years.And now, he wants to catch up with Akiro while he’s with me. The audacity of this fucking idiot. He couldn't tell it in front of Akiro earlier but now he’s texting him about it? How rude of him.Thankfully, Akiro shares the same sentiment.“He’s really persistent. He must’ve missed me so much,” Akiro said after pressing the send button. “But that’s quite rude of him. He knows I’m with you, and he keeps insisting to meet me somewhere.” He added with a frown.I internally grinned. Serves you right, fucker.After replying to that fucker, Akiro shut his phone down and hid it in his front pocket. “I’m getting tired.”“Do you want to go home?” I asked.He shook his head. “Let’s go to the abandoned building. Let’s skate there.”“Skate?” I frowned in con

Akiro’s Point of ViewI anxiously watched Heli as he kept on eating the dish I cooked for him. I was waiting for his feedback, but he didn’t stop taking a bite once he started, so I simply assumed he didn’t like talking while eating.It didn’t surprise me anymore when he finished eating in less than five minutes. He’s always been a fast eater anyway.“So? How was it?” I nervously asked.He looked at me with a serious expression after drinking water. “What do you think?”I glared at him. “I don’t know! That’s why I’m asking!”“Of course, it’s delicious. Didn’t you see how fast I ate?” he retorted in a matter-of-fact tone that made me roll my eyes at him. “How will I know if you won’t speak! Besides, you could’ve eaten so quickly so you wouldn’t savor the taste,” I replied, smacking his arms.Heli just gave me a deadpan look.My grandparents had already called it a night when we returned. There was no leftover food from grandma’s cooking, so I had to cook if I wanted to eat. After our

Heli’s Point of ViewI shut my eyes tightly once I landed on the landmark of traveling. I will never get used to the dizzying feeling after traveling a dimension. Once my eyesight had stopped spinning around, I stood straight and didn’t waste any time in running to the palace. There were a lot of people outside the humongous gate cramped in a tent that I assumed was built by some of our knights who were relatively unscathed. Most of them sport some bandages here and there, but there seemed to be no fatal injuries.The knights that were guarding the gate saw me approaching. I gestured for them to stay quiet and not announce my presence, which they thankfully did. They opened the gate just enough for me to enter, then I hurriedly sprinted inside and towards the family's private room.All eyes were on me as soon as I opened the door. My eyes roamed around the room, mentally counting if my family was complete.They’re all here, even Helena, though she was lying on a bed.“Helios!” Mothe

The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 127: Paranoid
Third Person’s Point of View“Take care of your mate, alright? Don’t let him go anywhere alone,” Queen Camilla reminded his youngest son, who huffed indignantly at being reminded of taking care of his mate.“Of course, Mother. You don’t need to remind me,” Heli replied.The Queen narrowed her eyes on her son. “There’s nothing wrong with being reminded, Heli.”“I know, Mother.”Queen Camilla huffed, then stepped closer to her son and kissed his head. “Take care, son. And enjoy it as well.”“I will. Thank you, Mother.”After bidding goodbye to his father, he left the room to find his mate, who told him he’d just bid goodbye to his friend in the kitchen. He met Akiro on the stairs, who seemed to be looking for him as well.“Heli!” Akiro exclaimed. “Are you done talking to your parents?”Heli nodded. “And you?”“Yeah. Though it’s a little bit disappointing that Shiro wouldn’t come,” Akiro pouted. “Maybe I can hang out with him next time instead. He doesn’t really want to hang out with the
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 126: Idea
Third Person’s Point of ViewAfter the engagement party, there was rarely a time when anyone wouldn’t see Akiro and Heli together. Where Akiro goes, Heli follows. The rare time they weren’t together was when Akiro hung out with Shiro, and even that had been reduced to just a few days a week compared to their daily hangouts before.They became inseparable, still on the high of their engagement. And despite their family and friends’ teasing and protests, neither of them cared enough to change it. Two weeks after the party, Akiro was left alone because Heli had to attend a negotiation with an elite vampire clan in Heldrix’s stead because the older Lancaster had been tasked with something else at the last minute.In his boredom, he suddenly came up with an idea. He quickly went to Shiro to ask his opinion.“What do you think?” Akiro asked.“I think it’d be good for you,” Shiro answered. “You’ve been cooped up in the palace ever since you arrived here. You seldom go to the town. You haven
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 125: Dance
Third Person’s Point of View“To our honored guests, I deeply apologised for the ruckus earlier, but I assure you all; everything’s been handled already. If you wish to continue the party, you may do so. Those who wish to leave, you may do so as well. My Queen and I will escort you out,” King Vladimir announced when he and the rest of his family returned to the hall. Just as he expected, Regia Astara’s allied kingdoms, Regia Terrania and Regia Valexia, had left soon after them. Only Regia Solaria’s allied kingdoms remain, as well as the only kingdom where merfolks live, Regia Zepharia. It’s also the only kingdom that is neutral. No enemies, no allies. Being the only merfolk in Eldritch makes them practically the odd ones out, so the others tend to ignore or leave them be.The party continued with only four kingdoms remaining, though Regia Zepharia left an hour later, leaving the allied kingdoms on their own.“That’s insane,” Aubrey commented after Akiro finished telling them the reas
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 124: Problem
Third Person’s Point of View“Had I known those humans’ filthy offspring were the one engaged to the ice prince, I wouldn’t have bothered attending their party!” Queen Amari exclaimed as she stomped inside their bedroom. “What a waste of time and effort!”“We should pay more attention next time,” King Lorenzo said. The Queen scoffed. “I knew there was a reason I wasn’t paying attention during the introduction. My gut was telling me it was a piece of shit that was in front!”In truth, she didn’t pay attention because she was busy trying to identify the weird scent she could smell amidst the hundred mixed scents floating inside the hall. That particular scent stood out though, and it grated Amari’s nerves because it was so familiar, but she couldn’t pinpoint why.And then, coincidentally, she almost bumped into the owner of the weird scent. Upon seeing the owner’s face, a memory from nearly a lifetime ago flashed in her mind.Her first love. Her first mate. Her first heartbreak. The o
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 123: Murderers
Third Person’s Point of View“What the fuck are you on?” Heli growled at the woman, pushing Akiro behind him. The miniscule respect he had for the woman quickly faded the moment she yelled insults towards his mate.“That man you’re hiding from me!” the woman continued yelling, uncaring of the crowd that gathered around them to watch. “Why the hell is he here!?”“This man that you’re pointing at is my mate and my soon-to-be-husband,” Heli snarled, glaring viciously at the woman. “And if you forgot, you’re a ‘guest’ here at ‘our’ engagement party. So if I were you, I’m going to watch my fucking tongue before I cut it off.”The woman’s eyes widened, both in surprise at how the ice prince had talked to him and at the fact that it was Akiro who Heli was engaged with.“What...”Akiro narrowed his eyes at the woman, thinking about what made her angry. He was sure it was the first time he had met her, but she seemed to know him. And then there’s her anger that he had no idea where it came fr
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 122: Reunited
Third Person’s Point of ViewHeli knew his mate was itching to find his friends and greet them. He knew Akiro was slowly getting bored with meeting different people from different kingdoms. But he couldn’t find himself to help his mate get out of their situation. Akiro has already fulfilled his part of the tradition, and he can go to his friends now after the introduction. But Heli didn’t want him to go.This was supposed to be about them, but Akiro would eventually spend more time with his friends than with Heli, who knew he’d be stuck with socialising with the other kingdom’s rulers.Heli knows it was selfish of him to keep his mate by his side when Akiro clearly wanted to escape, but he didn’t want the man to go. He didn’t want to see him spending time with other people while he wasn’t there.But upon seeing the longing look in Akiro’s eyes, when he finally saw his friends gathered at a table, Heli relented. He would rather feel jealous than see his mate look like that.“Go on,” H
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 121: Betrothed
Third Person’s Point of ViewAkiro stood on the balcony of their room, watching the guests trickle inside the palace gate. None of them were permitted to arrive directly in front of the palace. They all needed to pass the gates with the invitation card given to them with the kingdom’s sigil.He felt his excitement rise when he saw Terrence and Aubrey along with the rest of the royal family of Regia Obsivia. He was itching to leave his room and approach them when Regia Luximere followed just a few minutes after. His friends were here! He was dying to talk to them, but because of Regia Solaria’s tradition, he could only show up once they were called. He wanted to meet his friends first! He hasn’t had the chance to talk to them since the meeting. He misses them.His excitement dwindled when he saw another kingdom appear. Even though he never saw them, he immediately knew who they were.Regia Astara’s royal family. Even from afar, Akiro could see the way they carried themselves. Their po
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 120: Preparation
Third Person’s Point of View“Do I really need to do this?” Akiro asked, face pleading at his mate, who smirked at him.“Of course. We’ll dance in front of the guests and our family. We have to give them a show.”Akiro huffed. “But I can’t dance!”The vampire raised an eyebrow. “Oh? But I can still perfectly remember you dancing with a stranger in a bar,” Heli said. “Sexy dance, if I might add.”Akiro blushed at the reminder. “T-that’s different! I’m drunk then! I didn’t know what exactly I was doing!”“Uh-huh. And yet you still kept a cool head to stop the girl when she was about to throw herself at you,” Heli’s eyes turn dark at the memory of the girl’s pathetic attempt at flirting and seducing his mate, who wasn’t even into girls. “That’s because even in my drunken state, I know my preferences.”Heli raised an eyebrow, dark eyes staring intensely at his mate. “Oh?” he mumbled lowly. “So if it was a guy, you’d flirt back?”Akiro’s eyes widened, knowing full well he had made a trap
The Last Chosen Mate Chapter 119: Engagement
Third Person’s Point of View“Do you think he’d agree?” Queen Camilla asked her husband, brows furrowed in concern.The King glanced at his wife, smiling reassuringly. “He will.”The Queen bit her lips, still hesitating. Thousands of negative thoughts swirl inside her mind, and her heart aches at the thought it’d be his son who would suffer the consequences if it fails.Though it seemed the King had noticed her internal crisis, his hands reached out to his mate’s face. “It’ll be alright, Cami. He’ll agree; I’m sure of that.”“How? Even I hadn’t See it happening,” the woman replied.But the King just smiled. ###Akiro groaned. “Stop being annoying and just help me with this, will you?” he grumbled at his friend, who was cackling maniacally after teasing him about his burnt cookies.“How the hell can I help you with that? It’s not salvageable anymore!”“And whose fault is that? You distracted me when I was supposed to get it out of the oven!”“Oh, please. Stop using me as an excuse fo
