Tonia's POV.

Did King Jayden just call her inferior? I had to hold back a laugh at his choice of words.

"Excuse me? I am his mate!" Lisa spat, looking offended by his words.

"Mate? What am I missing here?" King Jayden asked, sounding confused.

"King Jayden, it's more complicated than you think and I don't want to concern you with family matters," Logan bowed slightly again.

Family matters indeed! If he wanted to keep this situation private, he wouldn't bring her to such a public function while leaving me out of it all.

King Jayden suddenly tightened his grasp around me and my breath became uneven.

"I'm pretty concerned about your behavior. You have a wife and also a mate, but isn't it a bit disgraceful that you would bring her instead of your wife who has been married to you for years? She deserves to be at your side, but I guess you don't deserve her."

I glanced up at King Jayden and was touched by his words because I never thought of things that way. I had supported Logan through

    Tonia's POV.I gasped at his words, he said them with such authority that I was tempted to say yes.I didn't want to see them anymore but I didn't want to cause more drama either."No, I don't want that. I just want them away from me." I responded and I could feel my heart beating fast. "You heard her," King Jayden turned his gaze to them.He lowered his gaze again and laid another kiss on my hand. My cheeks reddened as his lips nibbled on my skin. The fact that he was doing this in front of everyone made me so...so..."King Jayden, you shouldn't get handsy with someone else's wife!" Logan snapped, his voice laced with jealousy.I glanced at him and felt even more irked. How dare he try to act like he had any right to make demands?"You're one to talk, Logan," King Jayden chuckled mockingly.A furrow appeared between Logan's brows. He was pissed that King Jayden kept calling him by his name and disrespecting him over and over while he had to endure it all."I'm only saying the truth.

    Tonia's POV.Did he just ask me to call him my mate? What did he mean by that?"King Jayden—""Jayden," He corrected with a soft smile."I don't understand what you mean, but why would I call you my mate?""Because we're both fated by the Moon Goddess to be together forever," He responded."What? I believe you're getting things confused , we can't be mates," I argued."Why? Is it because I'm a king and you think that you don't deserve me?" He quizzed. Well, that was true. Why would I, a weak omega, be mated to such a powerful and highly respected King? He wasn't just any king but a Lycan King."It just makes no sense. I don't have a wolf!" I revealed.He let go of my chin and lowered his hand to my chest before responding, "I know, and that's why you can't sense the mate bond between us. But deep inside, Antonia, you know that we have a connection."He said each word while looking straight into my eyes and I was starting to believe that he was right.There was an undeniable connectio

    Logan's POV.I looked around and couldn't see Tonia anywhere. Where had she gone? I saw her running out earlier? Had she gone home? I hope she wasn't with King Jayden anymore. Why did he even gain such sudden interest in her and go as far as touching her that way?He should count himself lucky that he was a powerful King, if not, I would have taught him a lesson he would never forget.I wondered how he had lasted so long in that position with such an insulting attitude. I would not be the only one to ruin him once he falls."Tonia is more despicable than I thought!" Lisa suddenly spat.She had pure hate in her voice and I didn't blame her. She was my mate and deserved to be treated well, but the circumstances surrounding us weren't good at all."Lisa, you shouldn't get agitated, especially because of the baby," I whispered and held her hand.She yanked her hand away from mine and snapped, "I shouldn't be sitting here among these people. I should be with other reputable Lunas, but ins

    Tonia's POV I hoped he couldn't hear how loud my heart was beating right now. Sitting so close to Jayden wasn't easy, and Olivia made matters worse by not even accompanying us. She was a darling for helping me pack my things from that cheater's house but I wished she had come along with us. "Do you always behave this way when you're nervous?" His majectic voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I glanced at him, and he had this amused expression. I shook my head. "What? I don't understand." "You keep playing with your fingers and biting your lip sometimes," He noticed. I immediately released my bottom lip and separated my hands."I'm sorry," I quickly apologized. "You do not have to be sorry for being nervous, you should just know that I do not entertain bullying in my kingdom or around me.""I'm not going to let anyone harm you or speak badly to you." He spoke with such authority, I almost believed him. "You might be the king but you can't control everyone's actions," I blurte

    Tonia's POV.Logan wouldn't come for me. He was obviously carried away by Lisa, why would he want me back? But the maid just mentioned that the Alpha wanted something that Jayden took for him. "I took what belonged to him?" Jayden asked with a confused look on his face. "Yes, he kept repeating that and keeps calling what you took his love or wife..." My heart started beating faster as my fear seemed to be confirmed. It was Logan. Logan was here for me, but I was certain that Jayden wouldn't let him take me. This could get bloody. "Jayden," I breathed heavily. He didn't respond but held my waist firmly and effortlessly lifted me onto the piano. The instrument made off-tune melodies as my body pressed against the cold keys. "Stay here, okay?" He held up my chin and instructed. Then he turned to the maid and said, "Let him in." My heart almost stopped at his instruction. Why would he let Logan in? "Jayden, no—" "Stay here," He repeated and walked away before I could stop him

    Tonia's POV."What!" I exclaimed in shock. I clenched the sheets beneath me as beads of sweat formed on my skin. This was worse than I thought. "What will I do now?" I asked, my voice trembling. "Luna, please don't mind what she's saying," The second maid chimed in. "What?" I became confused. "King Jayden is not wicked person and you don't have to run away from him. She's just trying to scare you because she can't accept that he has you now," The maid explained. I was still confused. "Tina had a crush on his majesty and she is not happy that you are here. She has been convinced for a long time that the king would never find a mate since he had nearly passed his mating stage," She explained further, shocking me.I glanced at Tina, and she lowered her gaze. "She's just trying to scare you. I know the king might seem harsh at times but he always has a good reason and he's also nice to us all. He doesn't harass us like other Pack leaders do, he's very respectful and fair," The se

    Tonia's POV."Jayden," I called with a concerned tone. "Jayden," I repeated and shifted a bit. He stopped kissing my neck and our eyes locked. "Yes, my Queen?" I didn't know what happened at that moment but whatever I wanted to say vanished and I quickly looked away. The way in which he called me his queen sounded so wonderful, but I knew I shouldn't be enjoying it. I turned my gaze to the spot where I saw Alpha Keith, but he was gone. What? Was I imagining things? "Antonia, is there a problem?" He asked softly. I lied, "No, there isn't." I wasn't sure if he was there from the beginning, so there was no need to worry Jayden. "Are you sure?" Jayden whispered. I could feel his warm breath closely. "Yes, I am," I replied nervously. "Okay. I guess that we should start heading to the stables," He said. "Hold on tight, we're going to go faster than before. "What?" I gasped. "Just trust me," He beamed before urging the horse forward at full speed. "Woah!" I screamed when the

    Tonia's POV. What was Alpha Keith talking about? Was he out of his mind? "Luna, please don't step out of the car no matter what," One of the guards instructed. My heart pounded even more violently at his words. How could he expect me to stay here? "Where are both of you going?" I panicked. "We have to get rid of them. His Majesty gave us a duty to take care of you, and you must not get hurt, even if it costs our lives," The guard driving, said and unbuckled his seatbelt. "No, you can't do that. Can't we try to drive backward—" "There's another car behind us," He cut me off. I took a good look around and realized that we were really surrounded. How were they going to fight so many werewolves? They were outnumbered. I shook, "I want to help you.""You can help us by staying in the car and coming out under no circumstances." They both immediately exited the car before I could even argue. What did I even want to argue about? I had no fighting skills and could hardly defend m

    Tonia's POV.Yesterday was very tough for me, but Olivia had stopped pressuring me to leave. I had done my best to stop thinking about Jayden. "I feel bored," I yawned, walking into the sitting room. I looked around the sitting room and there was a small shelf beside the television. I walked over to it and started bringing out some of the books that got my attention. "This looks nice," I smiled a little, gazing at the title of the book. "The title sounds interesting, I think that I will read this," I said and kept the other books back on the shelf. I walked over to the couch and sat. I opened the book and the first name that I saw on the page was 'Jayden' "Seriously? Jayden is the name of the main character??" I rolled my eyes and closed the book. I stood up from the couch and returned the book to the shelf. I tried searching for another one, but there was a character with the name 'Smith'. Smith was Jayden's last name. "Fuck!" I cursed. "I am trying not to think about him

    Jayden's POV. "I am not meeting anyone. You can entertain them youself," I retorted, refusing to be trampled upon."What did you just say?" He scowled, lifting his cane.I snapped. "Sir, I am not a child anymore, and I am no longer that pushover that you kept controlling!""I am not meeting anyone, and I do not approve of any marriage arrangement. I am already committed to someone and that is enough for me," I stood my ground."You stupid child!" He thundered, hitting me with the cane."What is happening here?" Mother entered the room suddenly. "Why are you hitting him?""Your son has grown insolent, disrespectful and disobedient! He no longer has any respect for me!" He snarled."What is the problem? Why are you saying all this?" She asked, looking between us."What did you do?" She looked at me directly."He has refused to meet the family that I have made his marriage alliance with!" He thundered."What marriage alliance? What in the Moon Goddess' name are you talking about?"I tho

    Jayden's POV.What did he just say? "Sir, I don't think I heard you properly.""I am sure that you heard me perfectly. You should start getting ready to meet the beautiful woman that I have chosen for you," Grandfather smirked. I snapped. "I will pretend that I did not just hear that. Let us forget that we ever had the conversation.""You have truly become rude and ill-mannered. I believe that being away from my tutelage for so long has made you very reckless!" He spat, looking angrily at me. I sat up and looked him straight in the eye. "I am not being rude. I just want you to stop all of this. Why can't you see that I love Antonia very much? Why are you hell-bent on separating us!" I sneered. "Separating you?" He laughed like I had said something funny."This is the second time that you are making that statement, and I am going to correct you again." "You were never in the world or caliber to begin with. I also heard that she has left you, therefore, I don't think that I'm doin

    Jayden's POV."Yes, I wanted you to let her go in the beginning, but then I learned how much of a good person she was and watched how she made you happy," He replied warmly and sat on the bed."I know that you are hurt about everything that happened, but you have come this far. I don't think that you should throw it all away," He said with a shrug."I tried to stop her from leaving. I kept telling her to stay with me, but she said that her decision was final and kept behaving like I was stopping her from reaching her goal," I said sadly. "I don't even want to talk about this anymore,please leave." "Jay, you should not give up on her. You have done a lot to be with her, you even went against your scary old man of all people. You also risked your life to protect her. Your love for her is very deep—""But her love for me isn't!" I cut him off. "I'm not even sure that she loves me. She had already told me that she would never reciprocate my feelings...""Love isn't supposed to be a bed

    Jayden's POV."You have to eat something, you can't continue this way," She said, forcing me to eat. I looked away, "Mom, please stop," I was tired of everything and just wanted to rest. Was that too much to ask? "Jayden, you are not going to heal your pain by starving yourself. Your internal injuries won't heal either!" She snapped, giving me a pained look."You are also sad and your wolf must be suffering because of the departure of your mate. You are making things much worse by not eating."She insisted, taking another scoop of the food to my lips, "I am your mother, and I don't like seeing you this way. Please eat."I would have fallen for the loving look in her eyes and eaten the food, but today was different.I was angry and hurt. I didn't feel like being consoled or comforted by anything, especially not food.My stomach felt tight with anger and my whole mouth felt dry."Mother, no means no," I asserted and threw my face to the side."Are you seriously doing this? Why are yo

    Tonia's POV. This was what I wanted, but now that he had walked away from me, why was my heart hurting so much? He had decided to respect my decisions like always, but why was I stupidly expecting more?Why was I expecting him to still try convincing me? Why wasn't I relieved that he had easily let me go like I wanted?Jayden was right. I was selfish, very selfish."I have been hurting him for so long without even realizing it. I'm horrible," I cried and reached for my chest.My heart was aching horribly in my chest. The pain was now worse than before."Ugh,"I groaned. I bent down and buried my face in my lap. Tears just kept flooding down my face.I felt even more pathetic than before. Why was I acting like this wasn't the path I had chosen?Why was I acting like the victim when I had been the one pushing him away? Why was I behaving like he had hurt me when I did this all by myself?"Tonia," I heard Olivia's voice, but couldn't bring myself to raise my head."Hey," She bent down

    Tonia's POV.I didn't know whether to hug him right now or hide in shame. He must have suspected that I was about to run away. How must he be feeling right now?He had a smirk on his pale face, but was I not a traitor in his mind?"Jayden, when did you wake up? Are you alright?" Olivia asked, looking as shocked as I was. "I was a little fine until I realized that my mate was not by my side," Jayden replied with a smile. However, I knew his smile was not genuine. He was hurt. "Oh, I just wanted to take her for a few drinks. I am sorry for taking her away from you, I just wanted to cheer her up," Olivia lied. I didn't want her to become the bad guy because of my decision. I should take responsibility. "She's not saying the truth," I dismissed her words. "I wanted to leave and never return..." "Tonia!" Olivia whisper-yelled and pinched me. I should have not hurt him that way. I should be jumping for joy that he was awake, but there was no need to keep lying. "King Jayden!" "Jay

    Tonia's POV.I held his hand and took it to my face. I nuzzled my cheek against it and tears escaped my eyes. "Thank you for everything you've done for me. I will never forget our happy moments," I sobbed. My heart was being ripped apart. "I know you might hate me when you wake up and realize that I am gone, but I just want you to know that I am doing this for your well-being. I hope you understand.""I hope you don't search for me, and respect my decision," I muttered and brought out a folded note from my pocket.Although I had been told that some people could hear things during their coma, I couldn't rely on that.I had written everything I felt inside the note and would give it to Leah when I was ready to leave."I would have put this in your hand, but your grandfather might come to see you and get rid of it. I don't want that," I laughed bitterly.I removed his hand from my face and placed it by his side. I leaned closer to him and held his face.I missed seeing his blue eyes,

Leah yelled, helping me from the floor."You better shut up your stupid mouth! How dare you tell me what is acceptable or not acceptable? stupid child," Jayden's grandfather sneered.His voice was full of so much anger."I told you to let that boy be, but you refused and now your stupid ex-husband has put him in a coma!" He thundered."Grandpa, that is not her fault at all. I am sure that she didn't expect something so horrible to happen. You shouldn't blame her for the mistakes of another person!" "I kept quiet the last time you threatened her, but I won't remain silent again!" Leah fired. "Leah, please..." I didn't want her to get in trouble with her grandfather. "I did not come here for you, you little brat!" He shouted and looked at me. "Jayden would have been hale and healthy if you had accepted my offer at that time and left him alone!" "You
