Mag-log inMicheal strengthened as he looked between me and the king, "Alpha King," he bowed acknowledging him, The king entered, giving a small nod towards Michel."I am surprised to see you here, Alpha Michael. I've been told you've come here for my attention," Alpha Asael inquired, and I could have sworn I saw his eyes dart over to me quite a number of times as his hands twitched; he appeared envious."Not particularly, I was here to visit Diona and discuss something with her," he said, staring at me with a silent look that made him seem pleading. I clenched my fists at his words, like what he wanted from me, but my feet were stuck, and my mouth felt too heavy to utter the words, not with everything at stake."I see... about that Miss Diona... I would very much like to speak with you... privately," he said, and Michel looked at us."Of course... I was about to leave..." he said, bowing and walking away. The room felt heavy at that moment, but he stepped forward, and I felt so uncomfortable..
Micheal looked at me, while I looked excited to see my friend; he didn't look too happy to see me.My smile fell immediately as it appeared."Mara... leave us," I called out as she nodded and walked out, having told me her name earlier.Micheal walked into the room as I shut the door; I didn't need to know, whatever he came here for wasn't good."How is she?" I asked without turning as I stared at the door, tears gathering at the corner of my eyes... I held the handle of the door, my body shaking with fear... anxiety crawled through me.But Micheal never said a word."Mic..." I froze as I turned to look at him; he had never glared at me the way he did..."What happened?" I asked."Yo... you happened?" he hissed at me and my eyes widened..."What..." I whispered and suddenly he leaned towards me, and I held back, my back hitting the door."Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell me you were mated to the Alpha King!" he snapped and a line of tears streamed down my eyes."How is she?
"She is my mate... mine, no matter what you claim to be to her. You can’t deny she has lived with me for three years, and she carries my child!" Ryker roared at his father.”mate…you have no claim on her, she isn’t your bonded mate, you only got her with your authority but now men is higher then your, and you have no claim on her”Asael spat and I could see how terrified Ryker became.”a court will be call forth, and you three will plead, your case!”Aseal Declares.Soon after what had happened, a count was called forth, not before I had changed into a dark dress, my hair wrapped into a bun at the center of my head. The dress was a little bit large, and I dared not ask whose dress the maids had lent me.Not after every one of my properties had been destroyed.I stood in the midst of hundreds of eyes on me."According to the laws that bind us, once a woman finds her mate, she is expected to go with him, be with him, and die with him. No one, not even royalty, can stop that. Even if she m
Diona’s POVLooking at the face of a man I haven’t seen in days shocked me, I wasn’t expecting this, I wasn’t expecting him,……he stood there and then a wide smile filled his face, he looked weird, his hair was scattered around his head. He wore a short, and appeared bare chested, and that creepy smile on his faceI was in shock as I watched him walk into the room, rushed over to me and pulled me into a hug, I froze as I looked at the man before me, my body shook as he stood there, I looked at the wide door and I could see maids whispering to themselves, and much less Elio who seemed….terrified, having appeared out of nowhere.”I’m back……and now let’s see how you’re going to get rid of me,” he mocked, as he held mefaking a smile on his face, to hide his malicious smirk, that scream of his arrogance.”I missed you mate, you had me worried, there, I couldn’t barely survive or sleep, so I killed all the rebels just to come back to you, stopping the rebellion, what’s a man after all, wit
Asael’s POV "It's been done," George informed me, and I signed, taking off my shirt and tossing it to the ground. I had ordered food to be delivered to her. After the argument in the dining hall, I noticed she hadn't eaten a thing, thanks to that annoying rat, I wanted to smash. If it weren't for my mother's intervention,he would had been dad already, though It would have made Diona hate me ten times over because of the death of that fool he called a mate. "Enough already, control yourself, so you wouldn’t make a decision you will regret, the girl is trumazied as it is ,i think its best to let her go….this family have hunt her enough" my mother had mind-linked me at dinner and had given Diona permission to leave, but I couldn't let her go. Not yet. The thought of not seeing her again or staring at her beautiful face was torture. Even though it was confirmed she wasn’t mine; she had a mate and was pregnant with my grandkid, but it wasn’t enough. It wasn’t right to have her take
Diona’s POVElio was excited to have been invited to dinner by the king, but it seemed weird to me that we were called to dinner so sudden. Earlier today, he had seemed odd……When he hadn't even spared me a look , now he was inviting me for dinner ………which ought to be something to be scared of.On the other hand, I knew I should be planning my escape; it troubled me that I’ve been unable to reach Anita for days; the calls always went to voicemail, and it scared me what they might be going through. And I wasn’t selfish enough to take my problems to them.The door opened, and Elio stepped in. He was becoming a nuisance, and I knew it. The sooner I got away from him, the better it would be for me."You seem to be quite on time," I said, and he scoffed."I wouldn’t want to piss off the alpha king, would I? Who knows, he might be in a bad mood today..." he said, whispering the words low, but I heard them. I turned to look at him."Why would he be in a bad mood?" I asked, even though I as
