2024-10-29 19:42:56BEN POV
Standing on the porch waiting for the Royals has never felt this nerve-wracking. I know the twins are aware of Chelsea, but I don't know if they know about Sasha and I. Honestly, Ace and I would welcome any kind of physical pain they have to offer.
"How are you feeling. The head good," Vince asks, cutting into my depressive state of mind.
"Yeah, man. You know how it is that injury to my prefrontal cortex never really healed. I just got overwhelmed for a second. Ace is pissed he can't heal it. Are you trying to force small talk on me," I ask while shooting him a glance.
"Yup. Your mate is missing, and her parents are about to disembowel all of us. I'm just glad you disclosed the information to Chelsea already," Vince states, and I nod my head as we both watch the pack vehicles pull up.
Jason and Amelia shoot me hateful glares, but I remain calm. Their looks could be due

ALPHA BEN POV I growl quietly as I watch the Royals and Sasha's guards eat like my mate isn't still missing. Last night after Jackson stopped me from skinning Bailey alive, things changed. All the Royals seemed to relax, like taking care of the traitors were the only thing that had mattered to them. Chelsea and Vince are just as confused as I am. I can tell by the way Chelsea keeps eyeing Roland and Vince keeps furrowing his eyebrows. Finally, Ace and I break. I slam my hands on the table, and I snarl at the calm faces. "What the hell is going on," I question with barely contained fury. Luis and Roland stiffen, but the Royals remain calm. My outburst even seems to amuse Jackson."We are having breakfast," Jacks states with a hint of humor in his eyes that are identical to my mate's."And after we are done eating, we are leaving
The Princess's Mate Chapter 14
BEN POV I slam the door to my office before I flip my solid wood desk with one arm. My computer monitor shatters, and I roar out my frustration into the tiny space. Ace wants to run and kill something, but I push him down. I will let my wolf out later tonight. Right now, I need to work through my own anger.I know the royals had been pissed about our situation but to keep me in the dark about Sasha being okay was just cruel. I still don't know how she was able to get away or what actually transpired last night. A knock sounds on my door, and I growl when it opens. Chelsea and Vince stare at my office with horrified expressions before shifting their gazes to my heavy breathing figure."Ben, what is going on," Chelsea asks in a soft voice while Vince crosses his arms."They fucking knew she was okay and didn't even tell us. Shot, our trackers are still out there looking," I growl, and Vince sha
The Princess's Mate Chapter 15
SASHA POV My heart and mind are literally at war. Everything in me says to stand tall and walk away. My lycan and Alpha blood are unyielding towards my mate. But my heart feels like it is already in his hand. He can easily crush it some more or repair it. I scrub the citrus scent shampoo into my hair and sigh at finally cleansing my body of the rogues' filthy blood. It surprises me that killing so many wolves in a short time frame hasn't bothered me. I mean, I have tortured threats to my home pack as part of my training, but I have never killed before this week. I think over all the males I have ended. I try to find some kind of remorse over my actions, but I find none. They were evil men and gave a bad name to the werewolf species. But still, shouldn't I be sad that I took so many lives.Natalia- That's what makes us an Alpha. We must do what is right no matter the
The Princess's Mate Chapter 16
BEN POV "You did good," Chels says, and I grin. "I'm going to take her to Marshal's. I think she will like it. Plus, the way they have their booths set up is cozy and private. We have a lot to talk about," I say while I shift through my closet. Chelsea closes the box she is filling and sits down on the bed we have been sharing for three years. She looks down with a frown, and I stop moving hangers. "What's wrong," I ask as I lean against the closets' door frame. I fold my arms and wait. Chelsea looks around. What was once our room and sighs?"Do you think Roland could become a part of White Crest," Chelsea asks, and I pull my eyebrows together. "Sure, I mean he would have to denounce membership to the royal pack, but that shouldn't be a problem," I say sincerely."If Sasha accepts you....

SASHA POV"Table for two," Ben says, and the human females nods.She gives us an easy smile before collecting two menus and escorting us to a cozy-looking booth."Is this okay," she asks"This is perfect, thank you," Ben says.The hostess blushes slightly but doesn't even look towards my mate as she places the menus on the table. "Smart human." I sit down and look around the quaint restaurant. I like it. The lights are dim, and the decor is very rustic.I can feel Ben's gaze as he watches my expression, but I avoid eye contact. I'm nervous. So nervous. I have never been on a date, and I have rarely dined out. Although my parents can't cook, I can. I also taught Ethan how to find his way around a kitchen. So since my life has consisted of nothing exciting, I usually cook dinner for my family."Hi, my name is David. I will be taking care of you thi
The Princess's Mate Chapter 18
SASHA POV The past ten days have dragged by. Yesterday, the young members gave us their opinion of my training course and overall it was mostly positive. A few felt as if my beginning level was a bit too advanced, so I will be altering that. But everyone 15 and up loved it. Chelsea is taking me shopping today, and tomorrow is supposed our last day in White Crest. Ben and I haven't really spoken since our dinner date. Natalia has been growing weaker and weaker, but I am still undecided. My brain has gone over so many different variables. The fact that accepting Ben means accepting his past and tying myself to White Crest doesn't sit well with me. I have spent the past 18 years tied to Riverstone. This is the first pack I have visited outside of home. Do I really want to tie myself down to another pack immediately? Do I want to cut my tour and become a Luna? Is Ben worth sacrificing my free
The Princess's Mate Chapter 19
SASHA POVExcitement hits me like a ton of bricks as I wash my body with my citrus body wash. Chelsea should be here in about thirty minutes to start helping me get ready. Natalia is in high spirits, and I can't help but smile at her.I let her take an extra-long run this morning since this is the best she has felt in days. Ben had seen me returning to the packhouse, but we hadn't spoken to each other. I had tried to smile at him, but he had turned away too quickly. I know I have hurt him, but tonight, I will fix it. I will apologize for not hearing him out. I will try to move on and forgive him for his past mistakes. A mate is sacred, and I shouldn't give mine up so easily. I shouldn't give up before we even begin.Luis- Your Father called.Sasha- I will call him when I get out of the shower.**************"Riverstone Jason speaking," my dad answers, and I smile."Hey, dad," I say, and I hear dad switch
The Princess's Mate Chapter 20
BEN POV"Ben, you need to ease up, man," Vince whispers harshly as he grabs my arm.I snarl and jerk away from him. This is the best I have felt in almost two weeks. My body feels light and not sluggish... My attention drifts, and my eyes begin to watch the flames as they lick at the logs."Ben, you know what drinking does. The doctor told you never to drink again. Ben, listen, man, that shit is going to mess with your brain injury. You need to be sharp," Vince says harshly, and once again, I growl.Ace and I need relief. How does he not get it? My mate is most likely going to reject me tonight."Mates.....I need this. We both are mateless," I slur while poking Vince in the chest. My brain puts together the fact that we both will be mateless.Vince immediately freezes, and his head drops slightly. Guilt hits me. I hurt my best bud."Hey man, it's

ETHAN'S POV (58yr later) I look at the ceiling and blink hard as I push the water from my eyes. Mom squeezes my hand, but I don't look at her. If I look at her, I will lose it. I have dreaded this moment for so long, and now that it is here.....I feel like a part of my soul is dying. "Ethan," my sister's soft voice calls out, and I immediately move to her bedside. I drop down to my knees so she can see me. My father, Jackson, doesn't even look in my direction, but I am used to it. "I'm right here, Sassy," I whisper as I take her weathered hand in my youthful one. "I love you, little brother..... I am so proud of the man that you have become...... I wish I had gotten to meet your mate. I wanted to tell her embarrassing stories.....like when I gave you a paint bomb..... for your thirteenth birthday," Sasha whispers with a small smile pullin
The Princess's Mate Epilogue
THIRD PERSON Sasha smiles as her family walks towards Ben and her in the airport. She has been waiting for two weeks to tell her parents that she is expecting and it is driving her insane. Typically Sasha only pulls pranks on other people's birthdays, but this one is special. "Honey," Amelia says as she wraps Sasha in a hug. Ben shakes Jason and Jackson's hands while Ethan waits for his turn to hug his sister. As soon as Amelia releases Sasha, Ethan pounces. "I missed you," Ethan says as Sasha lets out a small giggle. "You know most teens hate their sisters," Sasha says, and Ethan pulls back to give her a smirk. "Other teen's sisters aren't as cool as mine," Ethan declares, and Sasha beams at her sibling. Sasha has yet to realize how
The Princess's Mate Chapter 37
ALPHA BEN (rated R) "MOM," Sasha screams out so loud that most of the field freezes for half a second. Three individual pissed-off roars fill the air, and a blinding flash of light that I know is Amelia crosses the field to where my mate is. Ace snaps the neck of the rogue we are fighting and races in Sasha's direction. Helios and Eros are already killing all the enemies around my crying mate, so I shift to comfort her. "Give your mom space, baby. She will heal him," I whisper as I tug Sasha against me and away from Luis's still body. I can barely hear his heartbeat, and his consciousness is already gone. Blood is soaking the earth underneath him, and Sasha is petrified. Amelia places her hand on the arrow sticking out of his chest and yanks. The silvertip flies out, and the open wound is immediately covered with Amelia's empty hand. Luis's chest begins to glow, and only after about a second Amelia smiles.&nbs
The Princess's Mate Chapter 36
SASHA POV A howl breaks through the night, and I am on my feet before Ben is even awake."Ben, get up," I yell while throwing on my protective suit. My fathers' parents designed the suits over a hundred years ago, and for a century, we have been improving them. They shift with us and they are stronger than a bullet proof vest. They have basically eliminated the threat of human hunters, and they make it hard for Vampires to reach our hearts. Ben jumps up, looking panicked before locking eyes with me."What is it? What's wrong," he demands as he watches me get my suit pulled up. "Border patrol just sounded the alarm. Since I can't link my parents anymore, I'm not sure what is happening. But we need to get ready," I explain as I head towards the door. I forgo putting on shoes. The attire is entirely pointless with

ALPHA BEN (ONE WEEK LATER) "White Crest, Alpha Ben speaking," I say into the phone with a slight grin on my face.My body is buzzing with happiness, and I can't seem to shut off the feeling, not even when I should be working. Sasha is the best thing to ever happen to me, and it shows. I smile all day, I get stuff done in record time, and I am more stress-free than ever. It seems as if everything has fallen into place with the pack as well.Sasha and her trio of followers have taken over training. They redesigned the training field and implemented an entirely new system of working out. Vince doesn't seem to mind since he has more time to try and locate his human mate. Basically, everyone walks around smiling every day."Hey Ben, is Sasha near you," Jason's voice says through my office phone, and my happy demeanor dips a little."Not at the moment. She and Chels are delivering s
The Princess's Mate Chapter 34
QUEEN AMELIA "Another one has been spotted, My Queen, " our patrol wolf says with his head bowed. "Thank you. I will let the king's know," I say, and he disappears from the office. I sigh as worry begins to take a seat in my mind for the first time in thirteen years. That makes the fifth unknown wolf to be spotted near our border. The wolves aren't rogues, so we can't treat them as such, but they don't appear friendly either. I stand up and stretch my body before heading to the training field where my mates are. They aren't going to like this. ******* Jackson and Jason's bodies are sweaty and exposed as they circle one another. The other warriors are watching my mates with mixed expressions of awe and wonder. I roll my eyes as I watch the display. Their competitive sides are annoying sometimes. Amelia- sexy loves..
The Princess's Mate Chapter 33
SASHA POV. Rated R Natalia paces with excitement as my palms begin to sweat. Ben gives me a small smile as he slides the key card into the hotel door. He opens the door, and when my eyes land on the room, I gasp. "Ben, this is beautiful," I say as I look around the rose petal-covered carpet. The room has a gas fireplace that is already lit and a bottle of champagne that is icing next to a bubbling jacuzzi. Ben places his hand on my lower back and guides me in further. He takes my sweater off but doesn't say a word as I continue to appreciate the space. I walk over to the sliding door and look out at our view of the full moon. I never thought I would be this moved by a room. I am speechless. I turn and stare at Ben with wide eyes, and he grins. "I'm glad you like it. I wanted it to be perfect for y

ALPHA BEN"So what's going on," Vince asks as he throws himself down in a chair on the other side of my desk."With what," I ask as I finish booking the honeymoon suite in the pack's main hotel."Sasha and Chelsea left training early. Chelsea never leaves training, and while your mate was here last month, she never missed a day. So something is up," Vince says while twirling a pen that was on my desk.I chuckle and lean back. I look my best friend over and sigh. He isn't going to drop the question until I spill."Sasha said she wants to complete our bond tonight," I admit, and Vince's eyes bulge."Wow," he whispers with an exaggerated face.Quiet fills the room as we both think over what that means for White Crest and me. Wolves who are waiting for transfers should withdraw their applications. I will have a mate, a Luna. There will be at least on
The Princess's Mate Chapter 31
SASHA POV I huff as I pick myself off the ground. My mind is a jumbled-up mess. I want everything to be perfect for Ben. I want to show him how committed I am to our bond. But I am incredibly nervous. "Sasha, are you okay," Chelsea asks as she eyes me carefully."I'm fine. You just surprised me," I say, and Chelsea rolls her brown eyes. "I'm a good fighter Sasha, but we both know you can take me with your eyes closed. What's going on," She asks as she drops her stance completely and picks up her water bottle. The pack members who are training around us glance my way, and I sigh. She isn't going to drop this until I spill, but I refuse to tell the whole pack I am getting laid for the first time...tonight.Sasha- I told Ben I want to complete our bond tonight. "WHAT," Chelsea yells, and I immediately shush h
