I’m going to get it. I saw my mom and dad were both shocked and I had a feeling that they would feel hurt because they found out about it this way. Why does Matteo have to do it? Well, I know why, it was because of this stupid Joric who kept on announcing that I am his.
When I went home after that night, it was when Matteo found out that I was his. I didn’t manage to tell my parents about it. I didn’t know how I was going to tell them and I didn’t want to scare them. I mean, being the prince’s mate is something we didn’t expect. I was more than OK with either Clay or Alec, but the moon goddess gave me a prince and a future king.
“We all knew who was the champion of this tournament. Tomorrow, a celebration will be held for the ending of the tournament and some prizes for the champion and a few consolation prizes courtesy of the palace.” my mate said after putting me down and announced that I am his.
“Yes, your highness,” Beta Jack said, smiling. “The omegas were preparing for it since yesterday as well.” he added,
“Clay and Joric,” he called, and they both got closer. They had their heads down but I could feel Joric’s eyes on me. “I want to congratulate you two for being strong. I want you to grow and think about your pack and its members‘ well–being. You are the future leaders, so you had better work together so what Daniel and Jack have been through and done, will not go to waste.” he added.

responsibilities. “Your mates will come, I’m sure of it. I have waited for almost a hundred years and finally found mine.” he said before he looked at me and smiled. I didn’t say anything because I was still thinking about my parents.
“Your mates don’t need to be strong or powerful. She only needs to be your fated mate.” he continued. The two nodded and I hoped that they understood what he meant. I don’t know about Joric, but I hope that he does.
After his little speech, he took me to the villa again. We had been alone together but he never tried to mate or mark me, so I wonder why. Is there something wrong with me? He said he wanted me, so why is he not marking or claiming me?
“Freya, is there a problem?” he asked.
“No, nothing.” I replied, shaking my head. “I was just thinking about mom and dad. They found out about you that way so I had a feeling that they felt hurt.” I replied,
“You never told them yet?” he asked and I could see that he was hurt. “I thought you already told them about us on the night that I saw you kissing Clay,” he added.
“I didn’t get the chance. I was feeling lightheaded and I was thinking about you, so I forgot about it. When I got the chance, I was worried that it might scare them, so I was practically waiting for the right timing.” I replied, only to hear him growl. I looked at him and I was scared for a moment. I don’t think that he will be able to hurt me, but still,
“Waiting? What was wrong with me, Freya? First, you didn’t tell me about us being mates. Second, you kissed Clay and were ready to accept him. And now this? Just what am I to you? Don’t I matter to you at all?”
