His Mate
Last Updated:
2023-05-28 13:54:14ETHAN'S POV
She looks pretty enough to win a beauty contest despite the dirt and bruises on her face. I knew my mate would not be ordinary, but I didn't expect her to have the features of my childhood fantasy Princess, including a pair of big eyes that make her look like the most innocent soul on earth
She looks like a powerless angel that ended up in a messy situation. But I know that faces can be deceiving
I cannot know who she really is until she wakes up and tells me. I cannot just assume that her angelic looks are a perfect reflection of her character just because I feel spellbound
I wasn't ready to find her now. I am supposed to give up my life soon to lift the curse, having a mate that needs looking after complicates everything
I have the overwhelming urge to embrace her tightly and promise her the world while I breathe in her delightful scent. But I will not always be here to look after her. It's best if I restrain myself from showing her any affection at all so that she won't be broken when she finds out that I will not be around long enough to be her lifetime lover
I am also sure that my family will want me to sacrifice her life instead of mine to lift the curse. So this isn't the safest place for her anyway. But whatever she was running away from must have been worse
"Hum... huh... is she really your mate?" Tracy stutters the question after leaning on the door for a long time. She sounds tense, as if something has upset her
I had literally forgot that she was in the room. She has been quiet since I walked in with my mate in my arms and brought her . I know she isn't thrilled and I understand her feelings
She has always been my most loyal friend and I know how much she desires to be my Queen despite knowing that I will soon die to save the lives of the people of my kingdom
My parents love her because she has done her best to prove her loyalty to me and this Kingdom for years. I avoided the close relationship because I didn't want to leave behind a broken wife after I die to end the curse
Now that my mate is here I can see the hurt in her eyes even though she is struggling to hide it
I stand and walk closer to her
"She is my mate." I affirm and she bites her lip
"What's her name?
"I am yet to know who she is. She was already unconscious when I found her." I answer and she looks up at me with curiosity in her eyes
"She has the face of a fairly princess. Do you plan to make her your queen?" She asks in an emotional voice
"It takes more than a beautiful face to rule a Kingdom. We don't know who she is yet." I answer, doing my best to reason with my mind and not my heart. She sighs deeply
I am already head over heels with my unconscious mate despite not even knowing her name. That isn't fair to Tracy who has committed herself to proving her loyalty me for years. I think I can't help the attraction because of the mate bond. I must however learn more about who the girl is before allowing myself to fall deeper in love
"She doesn't seem strong." Tracy points out the obvious and carries on to explain. "The cuts and bruises on her skin would have healed already if she has a wolf. She has also been unconscious for over an hour. What do you think is wrong?
I mull over the issue for the tenth time since I rescued my beautiful mate. She clearly doesn't have a wolf or powers
"I don't think she is a werewolf. She may be something better." I answer, implying that she is like me
"She wouldn't have gotten hurt if she was like you." Tracy argues
"Perhaps she is yet to phase. I did not get my powers until I turned nineteen, remember?" I answer, smiling at the prospect of having a mate who is as powerful as me
The dream isn't that thrilling. Not when I know that one of us must die to lift the curse
"Why do you think she was being chased by three men?" Tracy asks, sounding a little suspicious
I know that her good heart harbours no bad intensions towards anyone that is not her enemy. She is only asking questions out of genuine concern
"There are too many reasons why a girl without any means of defense would get attacked and run. I choose not to assume anything until I find out the truth." I answer her question the best way I can and she nods in understanding
She stays silent for a couple of minutes and appears to be thinking deeply
"I am glad that you finally found your mate even though I had dreams of us being together. She is beautiful and I am happy for you." She says in a sweet tone and I smile at her sudden change of attitude. She always finds a way to prove her diligence no matter the situation
"You must be feeling tired and distressed by now. I think you should go rest." She urges, opening the door for me to leave
"I can help find all information about your mate since I am free of work for the next two days." She kindly offers and I shake my head
"I can't leave this room before she wakes up." I reply. "She will need someone to explain how she got here.
"I will watch her for a while before I head out. She is probably going to wake up soon and I will explain everything." Tracy smiles reassuringly
I nod and smile back gratefully. I know I can trust her with a million lives. She is a good person at heart. Envy would never make her seek to harm anyone
"I will get a servant to bring you something to drink. Thanks in advance for the help." I say
She nods and I watch her walk to the seat beside the bed before I step out of the room and shut the door. I do need a moment of rest to mull over everything that has happened. My mate is safe as long as Tracy is in there to

The Unforgiving Alpha King The Weird Request
EMMA'S POVWhy on earth am I still breathing if I am dead? Why do I still feel pain? I thought death was supposed to be a peaceful, endless rest. This feels nothing like it.I hesitantly force my eyes open expecting to find myself in a dark, harrowing world of the dead. But my eyes are greeted by beauty and splendour.My shocked eyes look around the magnificent room with amazing art on the walls and expensive furniture spread across the room. The pillows beneath my head feels soothingly soft like they are made of feather. I have never been allowed into a room so refined before.I literally jump in alarm when I notice the girl seated next to the bed, her dark, steely eyes watching me. She smiles kindly and I hesitantly relax again."Where am I?" I ask."This is the palace of Goldenheart Kingdom. Our powerful king saved you, otherwise you would be dead." The girl answers, her sweet smile fading.Her words sends a cold chill through my veins. My whole body goes stiff with shock.Goldenhe

ETHAN'S POV"A wolfless girl cannot have been destined to be the Queen of this Kingdom. I don't mean to demean your mate, but I think it's obvious that she was fated to die in your place and save us the pain of losing a great King. Tracy will make a perfect wife once you make her your queen. I don't know why that is hard for you to see." Mother confidently says like she is speaking of a sheep that has no right to keep living.I knew bringing my mate here was a huge mistake. The pressure to sacrifice her life in place of mine has mounted just because she is no longer an unknown person living far away. I have a feeling that she is more than what she seems to be. But that's just me. Her looking weak has lead my family to think that she was meant to die on my behalf and lift the curse.Not having a wolf now could mean that she could one be like me. But everyone seems to assume that she seems weak because she is not meant to be missed after her death. They all regarded me the same way befo

EMMA'S POVI quickly sit up on the bed as the door creaks open and a lady in an opulent green dress and lovely golden necklace walks in.She must be a royal and I look like a beggar compared to her. I am in a buggy blue dress that I was given by the servant that brought me food. It's better than the torn, bloody clothes I had on before though.I quickly sit up on the bed as the door creaks open and a lady in an opulent green dress and lovely golden necklace walks in.The woman smiles kindly as she walks to the chair beside the bed and sits."How are you feeling?" She asks like a concerned mother but I notice a hint of disdain in her voice. I did not expect genuine respect from a royal like her, not when I look like I escaped from slavery."I think I am well, My lady." I answer, acting like I haven't noticed that her kind smile is fake."I am King Ethan's mother." She reveals in a proud tone.I don't see any resemblance between their faces but I am sure she is telling the truth. I would
Last Updated : 2023-05-28The Unforgiving Alpha King My Mate Is A Murderer!
ETHAN'S POV I wonder what troubling news Tracy found out that Griffin had to pull me out of my meeting with two of our allies. I walk into my spacious office and find her seated on the guest seats with two other people I have never met before. Her hair and clothes look unusually dull, like she didn't have time to style the hair and put on something exquisite like she does every time she shows up here. She also appears more nervous than yesterday. She offered to find out more information about my beautiful mate just so I could know the reason three soldiers were chasing after her even after crossing our border. I wonder if whatever Tracy discovered was really too important that they couldn't wait for my meeting to end. "What was do urgent? I literally had to leave an important meeting to come here." I say halting not so far from the door. Tracy stands and takes a couple of steps forward. Your mate was escaping from being arrested! she killed three of her friends." Tracy reveals
Last Updated : 2023-05-28The Unforgiving Alpha King Bad Morning
ETHAN'S POVI needed a break to make my mind feel at peace with the decision I just made. I have never felt this amount of guilt after passing a sentence against a cold-blooded murderer before. I made the right decision, but the unneeded mate bond makes my heart feel like it has been frozen. I have told myself a million times already that I shouldn't care about a murderer. But the feeling doesn't go away. I need to lay down for minute and find my resolve. The council will probably take an entire hour to gather and be briefed about the culprit and her crimes before the actual court session starts. Hope that by then my heart will have overcome the unnecessary grief. My chest feels heavier than the rest of me as I push the door to my room open and step inside. I sigh in frustration when I find my mother waiting, taping her foot against the floor like she has been here forever. She has a cup of tea in her hands that she sets down on the small table beside the bed and literally runs up

EMMA'S POVThis must be a bad dream, the worst I have ever had. Did he really say I would get executed? For killing who exactly? I am wolfless and weak compared to them, where would I get the strength to hurt anyone?"This is . . . absurd! Who . . who do you think I killed?" I stutter, my heart beating hard enough for someone close to hear.My mate leans back on his seat, his features darkening with uncontrollable anger. "I told you not to waste my time!" His eyes glow with rage just like they did before he burned those three soldiers alive. "You poisoned three of your friends before escaping into my kingdom. Did you really think you could just stay comfortably in my palace and I would never know the evils you have done?" He snarls and my mouth falls open with shock."That's insane! I have never had friends and I have . . . never harmed anyone! " I shriek and hear him and a few councilmen snort."I was running from Silver moon pack because my family hated me, not because I hurt anyone

ETHAN'S POVIf what I did was right, why do I feel like my world crashed on a rock and shattered into pieces? Something good on the inside feels like it's fading away and when it's done I will be left cold and broken.As far as I am concerned my mate deserved the sentence I gave her. Is there another fitting punishment for someone that has taken three lives other than execution? I killed three innocent men to protect her just because she was acting like an innocent victim that needed help. I don't see a reason to regret sending her to prison or declaring that she should have her life taken. I will not change a thing no matter how enormous this undeserved pain gets."Mate bonds are crazy things. Your mate can be a witch and your heart will still desire to love her." Mother says in snotty voice. "It's unfair that you're hurting because of that wretched thing. But that could be because she is alive and extremely scared. Once she dies your heart will be freed to love someone else." She ad

EMMA'S POVTwo men in guard's uniform walk into the room and halt a step away from me. They too glare down at me just like everyone I have met in this Kingdom has done so far."She looks cold and sick. How could King Ethan's mate be so weak?" One asks with pursed lips."Because she was meant to die. She is awful in every way." The other answers, equally displeased. "Take her to the cafeteria and get her little food to keep her alive. She will spend the rest of the day working." The taller guard orders his partner in an authoritative tone and immediately turns to leave."Yes, sir." The other man replies, leans down and grabs me by the collar of my big dress. I shriek in pain as he pulls me up to my feet with just a quick jerk of his hand. I stumble all around while he tries to make me stand steady."You're so damn useless!" He curses after running out of patience. "He angrily marches towards the door while pulling me like a sack behind him. Once again, I am forced to ignore the pain an

The Unforgiving Alpha King I Don't Want Him To Die
EMMA'S POVI move my thick hair sideways as Ethan places the most stunning of necklaces around my neck and clasps it at the back. The mirror in front of us reflects my adorned neck and the shimmering necklace makes me look like a refined, noble woman.I have never worn jewelry before. I don't plan on adding more as that would make me look overly spangled like many royal women. The necklace has a unique design, three diamonds shaped like three stars and a crescent moon hang at the front while the rest of the beads are made of silver and are quite tinny. I think I can always wear it, with any dress. "You look stunning." My mate compliments as I turn around to face him. I believe his words, but guess who always looks more breathtaking . . . him. He never needs to wear anything or style his hair in a certain way to look like beauty personified. "Thank you for this. I am not a fan of jewelry, but I like this one." I say with a genuine smile. He has given me more gifts since I arrived h
The Unforgiving Alpha King Mother's Plan
ETHAN'S POV I feel strangely more refreshed than usual after spending the night sleeping beside my mate. Her heavenly scent was so lulling that I couldn't resist the urge to pull her closer and bury my nose into her neck. She was fretful at first, but she slowly relaxed and slipped back to sleep. She seemed grateful that I was there despite our infelicitous past. I imagine the nightmare had left her shaken, her body was quivering as I settled in the bed beside her. I was relieved when she managed to fall back asleep on her own. I watched her beautiful face for half an hour after waking up earlier than usual to make sure she has a personal servant that we can trust to prepare her breakfast. We will soon be parting ways because I need her to be somewhere safe before the day of atonement. And I want her to have someone truly loyal and caring by her side. The woman I chose used to be my nanny when I was a child, I felt closer to her than to my parents. I am sure she will care for Emma
The Unforgiving Alpha King Her Revenge
EMMA'S POVI wake up huffing and puffing, my body sweating from the terror of the appalling nightmare. Turns out laying on a King size bed and being surrounded by gold isn't a guarantee to peaceful sleep. I have had terrifying nightmares before, but none was as chilling as the scene that jolted me awake from my sleep. My heart is still pounding hard from the frightening dream. It felt so real. I can't help worrying that it may be a warning of what I will happen to me in future. I know it was just a dream, but I saw my life being taken to lift the curse. My arms and legs were bound to the wooden table I was laying on so that I wouldn't escape. Ethan's parents and my sister stood aside watching. They all grinned deviously as a soldier with a ruthless look stepped forward, a sharp, shimmering blade in his muscular hands. I let out a scream as he raised it high up in the air then brought it down on my chest. I am quite relieved to see that it was a dream, but I may have actually scream
The Unforgiving Alpha King The Sweet Side Of Him
EMMA'S POVI may still have little love for my family, but I never wanted to see any of them again. Joanne looked like a shadow of the lady she once was. It took me several seconds to recognise her face without makeup. Unlike me she was loved by our parents and her mate, why would she run from all the sweet attention and show up here looking like the old me? I had enough troubles to deal with before, but she had to show up here pretending she is sorry. I know better than to believe her pretences, because Joanne can never regret anything she did to benefit herself. Did she find out that I am here and thought that she can come live in a bigger palace? King Ethan didn't look like he wanted her and neither do I. I wonder if she saw the sick people on her way here and still thought that this is the kind of heaven she seeks to live in. Has she also heard that I am likely to die to lift the curse? She should take her greed back to Silver moon, because she won't find the extravagant life s

ETHAN'S POV"You got banished by your husband?" I question and the Luna shakes her head. If she wasn't banished then she run away. "Did he harm you?" I ask even though I don't feel that concerned."Not physically. But he broke my heart in the worst way possible. I can never go back to him." She answers, her eyes filling up with tears. "Does this have anything to do with finding your sister?" I ask and she shakes her head once more."No. I stopped searching for my sister because he was extremely angry after that time I spoke about her in presence of our wedding guests." She responds and I feel disgusted by her selfish thinking. How could she stop searching for her sister simply because her stupid husband doesn't like it? "So what went wrong then?" "I found out that he has been having fun with other women. He didn't deny it when I confronted him. Instead he brought one of his mistresses home and introduced her like it was the most normal thing to do. When I complained he got furious
The Unforgiving Alpha King Face of innocence
EMMA'S POVThis ornate royal structure was definitely built to convey wealth and grandeur. I imagine there is no other palace of any pack that has pieces of precious stones hammered into the wall surrounding it's massive guest hall. I am awed by the plush decor, but it's still hard to happily smile like I am home.It's true that no one seems thrilled to see me. The groups of servants we have bypassed stared and whispered amongst themselves, but their faces bore no sign of friendliness. They in fact look displeased to see me.I don't mind as long as no one is yelling out insults at me like the time I was getting dragged to the courthouse and everyone was confidently calling me names. "Don't mind their stares, they are just astounded to see you survived all the anguish and still look healthy." Lilian comforts. I nod even though I know they are staring for a different reason. They are wondering why my mate has chosen not to sacrifice me instead of his own life. He is obviously the most
The Unforgiving Alpha King Told you he was good
EMMA'S POVI hate being in this room even when he isn't here. The shimmering gold doesn't take away the hate I have for the person that slept here before. I wonder how she feels being in a cell now after sleeping in an incredible little heaven like this. She must be devastated, because if she succeeded no woman would have been greater than her. She would be the beloved wife of the powerful King Ethan. But somehow things fell apart when she least expected. I really wonder how Ethan found out she was fooling him since she seemed quite in control of the situation. I thought since he adored her so much he would not punish her for anything, turns out he is truly unforgiving.I hear the door click open and turn my nervous gaze in that direction. Before Ethan left he said that he would send someone here to keep me company and show me around the palace if I wish to take a break from staying in here. I was however not expecting that person to be an excited, smiling Lilian.She looks pretty in
The Unforgiving Alpha King Unwelcome
ETHAN'S POVI knew from the start that she would not agree to return here with me. But I could not leave her out there, not when she was already left locked up in an empty room to starve to death. I imagine no man of this Kingdom has ever endured the amount of physical and emotional pain that she has been through. I turned on her when she needed me most, now there is very little time left for me to mend everything and leave her with a good memory of the person I am.I used my blood to heal her wounds. But that's something too small to repay all the suffering she has endured because of my mistakes. I want to make things right, if only there is enough time. The curse can't wait another year to be lifted, not when over a hundred sick people have already gathered outside the gates of my palace, hoping that I can do something to save them from their pain.I wonder if my mate will ever think of me after I am gone. I would feel honoured to be remembered by her. She would definitely be happ

ETHAN'S POV "I understand why you don't want to be here. I am sorry I said so many awful things to you and I failed to protect you because I trusted the wrong person. You however won't safe outside the walls of this palace." I say in the most gentle voice I have ever used. But I can see that she is too scared of me that she wouldn't believe a word I say. I don't blame her. I have put her through hell so nothing I can say will convince her that I am not a monster."I would rather be out there than in here." She responds in a shaky voice. "This is your room, right?" She questions, once more gazing at the gilded furniture and the eye-catching drawings on the walls. "No. This one is yours. I thought you would like it." I say, trying to get a positive reaction from her, but she scoffs. I feel worried because she still seems weak. She yawns and I instantly remember what her talkative friend had said. She has not eaten for days! She must be starving."I will go get you something to eat."
