(Lana POV)He just called me mate? I felt the mate bond again? How?His voice still lingered in the air and refused to fade, deep and resonant enough to make the very bones of the palace. “The king….had a mate?”“It's impossible!” “He's never taken one before.”“Why her?”Murmurs ripped through and chaos started. Why me, indeed. Why sapphire? Ashton's gaze didn't wafer, instead, it pinned me where I stood, commanding, as if the rest of the world ceased to exist. My heart hammered so loud I thought everyone could hear it. This — this change, I didn't think was coming. My lips parted, but no sound came. I was speechless because how could there be words for a force like this?This wasn't the raw, possessive pull Diego's wolf had forced upon me, this was different. Purely different. Ashton's slow steps broke the silence as the crowd parted ways while he passed nobles, guards, even Diego himself, his chest still heaving from the pain of my rejection. He stopped only when he stood

(Lana POV)“M…mate,” he rasped, the word trembling out of him, uncontrollable. Putting a shock across my face and on the crowd. Whispers turned to chaos and every gaze flicked from him to me to Amethyst, poor, trembling, beautiful Amethyst, and smiling moments again like a queen. Now, her pained lips quivered. The horror on her face was almost enough to make me laugh. Almost. “Diego?” She gasped, gripping onto her down. “What …what did you just say?”But his wolf had already taken control — Diego's eyes flared, his voice cold and possessive at that. “Mine.”The word rolled through the ballroom, causing more chaos and gasps among the pack members.

What have you done?!”She lunged and before I could even react, her jeweled hand struck my cheek aggressively, hard enough to send sparks across my vision. The ro

(Lana POV)I gasped. Cold air rushed into my lungs and I clutched my chest, dragging in a breath so heavy. I forced my eyes open, scrutinizing my surroundings. I was in a room I didn't recognize. There were velvet curtains, gold framed mirrors and a faint perfume that didn't smell like mine. The room looked too regal, too alive. I pushed myself up on trembling elbows. My body felt wrong, lighter, shorter ... .my hands, slender, uncalloused, were not mine. “What—” My voice caught, it wasn't my voice. It was softer and higher. What was happening? Wasn't I supposed to be dead?My eyes fixed on the mirror beside the bed and in a swift, I rushed towards it, standing before it to find out the cruel truth. The woman staring back had pale hair my, blue icy eyes, wide and terrified. My face, my face was….my breath stilled and I stumbled toward the mirror, touching my reflection like it might shatter and set me free. ‘This isn't me.’But I knew those eyes, I had seen them before — thric

(Lana POV)“You look breathtaking,” Alpha Diego, my newly wedded husband, the love of my life and my fated mate,brushed his hand down my bare arm as he let me into the chamber. “You really do not know how ready I am for you tonight”He murmured, his voice low, smooth and familiar. The words alone curled around my heart, soft and tender and I smiled, letting him guide me past the drapes into the room where candles floated in glass bowls of wine -red petals.
