Maddison Spencer-Bennett One drink… Two drinks… Too many drinks later... I opened my eyes as the light was coming through the curtains. As I did so, I realized that my head was resting peacefully on a bare, toned chest. I walked away slowly, trying not to panic, because reality was hitting me hard: I had slept with a complete stranger. “Shit! I have to get out of here!” I whispered to myself, while looking for my lost clothes... today I was the one who had to do the walk of shame when leaving this room. A walk I had seen many times with the countless women who slept with the triplets. Every time I saw them leave the house embarrassed at dawn, I would give the talk to my brothers, as if I were the police of morality and good customs... and now, I was the one who committed the crime. Once dressed, I looked one last time at the stranger, who was sleeping in the bed, completely unconcerned. Without a doubt, I would never forget this night and I could never forget him, si
Maddison Spencer–Bennett “Where the fuck do you think you’re going, mate?” said the stranger, with a frown and a clenched jaw. I opened my eyes wide, swallowed hard and said, “Mate? What the hell are you talking about? I’m not your mate! Now, let me go!” I tried to get out of his grip, but he was stronger… much stronger than me. “I won’t let you go. I’ve been waiting sixteen years for you to be ready. And I will not stop claiming what is mine... And you, little mate? You were mine from the moment you were born.” Did he say that he had been waiting sixteen years for me to be ready? What does he know that I don’t? I watched him in silence. I cleared my throat and said to him, “Do you know who I am?” He sighed and said, “I’ve known you’re mine for years, Maddison. But I had to wait until you were ready. I wanted you to be the one to recognize me and choose me as your mate... but my wolf can no longer be far from you... I can’t be far from you, little one.” I frowned. Then I said,
Maddison Spencer-Bennett.So now I found out that my parents knew who one of my mates was years ago. Why the fuck didn’t anyone say anything? I don’t believe at all that it’s because “they wanted to protect my childhood.” Bullshit!I got out of bed and asked him the question that was on my mind. “Dad, why didn’t anyone tell me anything? And don’t say it was to protect me.”He opened his eyes wide, but it was Alonso who took my hand and said, “Because I asked them to, little mate.”I frowned and broke free from his grip. I crossed my arms and said, “Explain yourself.”He sighed and said, “Your parents wanted you to know about my existence years ago. I asked them not to tell you anything because I wanted you to get to know me without having expectations. Honestly, little one, I was terrified to think that I wouldn’t be enough for you.”This left me amazed and speechless.The most coveted CEO, admired and pursued by all women of all ages, was terrified that I would reject him? Hasn’t the
Maddison Spencer-Bennett. I sighed deeply, because Leonardo was right. I had to choose. And honestly, it was a simple decision. I would not deny what the goddesses were destined for me. No, this was one of the easiest decisions of my life. I took Alonso’s hand, smiled at him and said, “There’s nothing to choose from, honey. You are mine and I am yours. There is nothing wrong with that. So, out of this, we came out together.” The smile on his face grew wide and bright. He didn’t say he was proud of my decision, but it showed. “As you wish, little one. Here we go.” So, hand in hand, we left, accompanied by Alonso’s bodyguards. I had done this a million times... walking among journalists and having them bombard you with inappropriate questions. I have had to cultivate the patience to not respond to them in the way my brain was screaming to do so. And Alonso was no different than me. He also grew up in the public eye, so he was used to dealing with them as well. Maybe he did it muc
Alonso Corleone. We entered the palace, and the guards greeted us respectfully, without looking Maddison in the face. According to royal protocol, no guard or warrior could look at the princesses or the queen in the face. Of course, Hannah, at her tender 12 years old, did not understand it and I have often known her to prank the guards to make them look at her nonsense. Warren lived hiding her misdeeds and, well... the triplets too. They spoiled her with everything she wanted, because she was the youngest, except the queen. She was ruthless with her five children. We arrived at the queen’s office, and Maddison knocked on the door. We waited a few seconds until we heard, “Come in!” I opened it and let Maddison enter first, as protocol dictated. The queen’s mates had to go behind her as respect and protection. “Wow… Until fate caught up with you. It’s about time! I’m so tired of having to pretend like I knew nothing.” I closed the door and from where I was standing, I could feel
Maddison Spencer-Bennett. While I was talking to my mother, something inside me made me go into alert mode. I knew something would happen. At the moment I was about to answer Alonso, the door opened and the smell of the female who was entering the office made me see everything red. Suddenly, I felt like I was possessed by another being that wasn’t me. A fierce one that needed to destroy any hint of threat… I needed to eliminate any competition… He was mine. A growl came out of my mouth, which left me completely surprised. I have never made a sound of that magnitude. It was like I was a passenger inside my body. “GET AWAY FROM HIM, YOU FUCKING WHORE! HE’S MINE!” I growled, unable to contain the anger in my veins. The woman was paralyzed. She already knew that when a Lycan felt threatened, she was extremely violent. And if we added to that the fact that I am the heir to the throne and possess magic, I became an actual threat. Alonso turned to me and purred as he slowly approached
