At the end of the altar stands the groom, the man I’m meant to marry beside the groom stood my mate.
View MoreChapter 17You know that awful sickening feel you get when you eat a corn dog and then get on the Ferris wheel? That’s the feeling I have right now only minus the Ferris wheel and the corn dog. I’m currently in the meeting room of the Mortaga’s where Tyson insisted on having the meeting about my position to the throne. Along with Tyson and my dad sits uncle Bane Ginger and Cato. My mother and Annabella and Mia are all present. With everyone including both my sisters Sofia and Winter so my guts telling me this isn’t going to be good news.“I’ve come to a decision,” My father Dominic says. It’s funny how when he speaks he has everyone’s full attention. Except mine that is. All I can think about is wanting to be Queen so badly and make my mark on the kingdom take us places we’ve never gone before. And the feeling I have is that’s never going to happen. My father is going to take that chance. Even if he doesn’t take my chance, my heart is getting weaker with each passing minute. I’ve alr
Chapter 16When your child, your parents never really tell you about the bad things in life. The dangers of attacks are never spoken in front of you. The only thing me and my sisters have ever heard was good. People would stop us on our walks through the kingdom and they would tell us how lucky we were to have such wonderful parents and great role models. All that was true. My parents are the best and do such good things for their people. As I got into my teenage years my father started explaining a little at times on how the kingdom was run and things to do and what not to do. It wasn’t until recently when my dad gave this assignment to the rogue king that I learned more about the dangers of running a kingdom. Even then I didn’t fully understand just how dangerous things could get…..until now.“One job,” my dad runs his fingers who’s salt and pepper hair frustratingly. “One fucking job. You two were to talk to Amir and settle the accusations that he was accused of. Instead you two
Chapter 15 I cried for a while after Dimitrius hung up on me. Carol called me for dinner shortly after that and I must say that I’ve never felt more out of place as I do now. Everyone is conversing and I’m looking around at them wondering if this is what they will be like if I die. Would they be this happy? Would they be sad? Who will take over the kingdom? Will I ever get the chance of being Queen and having my portrait hang beside my fathers?“Jasmine I forgot to ask how your appointment with doctor Jacob's went?” My father asks. My mom dropped her fork and it clattered on the plate and the room fell silent.I glance over at him trying to think of something that he will believe.“Good. I’d rather not discuss details if you don’t mind dad,” He nods and continues talking to Winter about how she needs to learn to control her Lycan. My mother on the hand doesn’t give up that easily.“You will tell us the details now,” I can see concerns etched on her features. But I’m not ready to tel
Chapter 14It’s been a week and I haven’t heard from Dimitrius. I've tried texting and calling but of course he lets them go to voicemail and he reads my texts but doesn’t reply so I’ve decided to just let him cool off for a while. My dad finally got home today. He and Uncle Bane have been gone so I haven’t had the chance to talk to my dad about the whole Cato situation. Whether my father likes it or not, I'm not going to marry Cato. If my father refuses to listen to me he will have to drag me down the aisle kicking and screaming the whole way to the altar. I let out a shaky breath and opened the door to my fathers office. He’s sitting at the desk with an exhausted expression on his face. His black hair was slicked back all but one stubborn strand that’s falling over his left eye. My mama had shown me pictures of him when he was younger. Sofia and Winter look so much like him. I'm an outcast. Both my parents have Cole black hair but somehow I got Auburn hair. “Can I help you with
“I’m going to confront him face to face,”I’m not exactly sure what is going through Cato’s head nor do I care because his sloppiness doesn’t just affect him, it affects my Kingdom as well and that’s not okay with me. Starting a war with no hard proof only speculations from what others had been saying. I still don’t think Amir would go about a war this way if he had made threats on the merger; he's the type that would have said so himself and not put it off on others. I mean Amir wouldn’t have given away his plans he would have blindsided us first, but I can’t seem to get Cato to understand.“With no proof we have no grounds that what was said was true or not. I think we need to have a sit down and talk with Amir about the accusations he’s being accused of,”“Jasmine. I’m the King you're just a princess I overrule you so what I say goes ... .got it?”I clench my jaw so hard it feels like my molars will snap at any given second…or Cato’s neck either way something is breaking.Preferab
The stories my mother would tell me about mates as a kid made it sound so nice and I couldn’t wait to be able to find him. I would dream about a mate that treated me like a princess and worshiped the ground I walked on. A mate that made his love known to me every second of the day, held me tight and kissed me with passion like mama used to tell me about. The moon goddess failed me.On my sixteenth birthday when my wolf never came,My dad always said I was a late bloomer, that gave me hope. But with each passing year my wolf never came. Even my dad realized it and stopped giving false hope when my heart would break when the wolf I longed for never came. A twist in fate. I do have a mate. I found him when I was fourteen even though I was too young at the time to know about my wolf but something about him lured me in. The sweet smell of his scent drove my taste buds crazy….the moment his blood entered my mouth I knew. I knew that he was my mate and that day I learned I have some of my m
I’ve tried. I really did. But I can no longer sit and be ignored. I’ve tried to talk with Cato about these Rogue king rumors and that’s what I believe they are rumors. But like always Cato ignores me. I’m planning on going to the Mortaga’s kingdom and giving Cato a piece of my mind which is why I’m waiting for uncle Bane to leave his office so I can inform my dad where I’m going. As I wait my phone buzzes and I grab it. It’s a text from Dimitrius when I see his name my heart starts to pound in my chest. He hasn’t been answering my calls or texts and it’s starting to bug me because I have no idea why he’s being a jerk and ignoring me all a sudden. Dimitrius: for the last time Jasmine, leave me the hell alone.A piece of my heart withers and I fight back the tears that’s been threatening to fall. I have had so much on my mind lately that I can’t even think straight he was the one person I thought I could count on, but I was wrong.“Jasmine. You can go in,” Uncle Bane says, and I nod
Since I did a great job at the meeting my father thinks I’m ready to take on a bit more responsibilities at the palace. I’m excited but also nervous that I might screw things up. I want to be better than the leaders before me do things that've never been done before. I don’t want my portrait to be just hung on the wall beside my fathers just because I’m the Queen, I want to earn my place and be hung on the wall of history next to my family before me. I know something big is going down or my father wouldn’t have called for me and Cato to join him and Tyson in his private office. Cato doesn’t seem nervous but then again it’s Cato we're talking about the boy who always has to have things together with his father watching his every move. In my opinion Cato was not ready to be King and the way he’s been running his kingdom has me worried more about the merger with arrogance like his. Cato never thinks before he acts and that can lead us into a war of trouble. “The wedding will be taking
Jasmine Age sixteen.The whole ride to the Mortaga’s kingdom Ginger never said a word. Cato offered to bring us back to his kingdom so we could get ready for the party, Sofia and Winter didn't stop fighting the whole time and their voices alone gave me headaches of the constant bickering. “You can get ready in your rooms, my mom still has some things to do before the party and she needs my help,” Cato tells us before he rushes down the corridor. Winter and Sofia waste no time in getting up the stairs to get ready, this is the biggest party because Mia has invited so many guests. Thank goddess, the more people the easier for me to slip away. Ginger was still quiet once we were alone in our room. And the silence is killing me but I have a pretty good idea of why she’s acting like this. I’m going to be marrying her mate.Cato doesn’t know Ginger's his mate yet she won’t find this out for another two years. This has got to be painful on her knowing and not being able to share the kno
