I glared at Ronaldo after I realized that he intentionally caused an issue between me and Freya. My eyes landed on Eunice, who had her head down and couldn’t look me in the eyes. I had already told her that there was nothing between us and I was not going to accept anyone as my chosen mate and that I was willing to wait for my fated mate.
Freya joined us for lunch and cleared things and I’m sure that my father admires her for her vocal opinion. My mother was like my mate. She always tells dad whatever she wants to say and doesn’t bother to sugarcoat her words.
The lunch was over and I headed for the king’s office. I had better get ready myself for his scolding because I was sure that I would be getting a lot from him. It was my fault, so I have no choice but to accept it. I may have got a few things for him about how I am going to apologize to my mate.
“I am disappointed with you, son.” Dad said. We were all seated and he invited both James and Calvin. I’m sure that these two will definitely tell him what they think as well.
“I know, I just thought that she really—” I said, but he stopped me,
“Enough!” he was angry, I can see that. “You should have asked her first. If you value and accept her as your mate, that is the first thing to do. I can’t blame her if she gets mad at you. The way I see it, she is already.” he added. My head was just down, I know that I am stronger than him. He admitted that to me as well, but my Lycan was so quiet and he doesn’t care if we are being reprimanded.
“Are you hesitating about your bond?” he asked and I was surprised, so I looked at him. “Are you still thinking about that scent that you

smelled, 9 years ago?” he added. I don’t know what to answer and I am sure that Freya is my mate. But there was something in me that made me think twice.
“Dad, I smelled her before. I should know when something happened to her. There was this one night when I was in so much pain. I went to the palace hospital and asked the doctor but he told me that what I am feeling is not from my mate’s infidelity, but because something happened to her.” I told him,
“What??” he was surprised because I never told him about it. I even asked the doctor not to tell anyone so this is a secret between me and him. “Does that mean she’s dead?” he added,
“I don’t know either, dad.“.
“If she was, I would have known it. You will be in so much pain that a night will not be enough for you to recuperate. It was very painful and will almost kill you,” he said, and I nodded. I saw how he was when my mother died and what I experienced was way easier than what he had been through.
“It’s not that she rejected Matteo either, right? She didn’t know his name even if she smelled his scent as well. She has to know his full name before she can reject him, if ever.” Calvin said,
“I think you have to delay the markings.” Dad said, I already know that. “Unless her wolf transforms into a lycan, but does she even have a wolf?” he added.
“Yes, I noticed that she was transforming. She’s glowing.” I replied,
“Then we will have to wait for her transformation. After that, we might be able to have answers to some of our questions.” he said, “For the meantime, find a way to soothe her.” Yeah, I need to talk to her, I just hope that she will.
