Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 36
“Here you go,” I say, handing a bottle of water to an injured werewolf. We’re at another pack that was attacked recently. This time the attack was worse because they came during day-time. Witches created a spell allowing non-Originals to walk in the sun. The witches also helped them to kill most of the pack. “Hello, Luna,” a voice I never wanted to hear says behind me. I turn around to see Scarlett standing behind me with a smirk on her face. “Hello, Scarlett,” I wonder what she’s doing here. “How are you, my Queen?” she asks, walking closer to me. “I’m doing okay considering the circumstances, and you?” “Same.” “What are you doing here?” “I came to help. I brought some supplies, and I also plan to take some of the displaced werewolves back with me. I have space to accommodate new pack members.” “That’s very kind of you, but you didn’t have to come all the way here for that. You could’ve sent your Beta.” I don’t know why, but I have a feeling she didn’t just come to help. S
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 37
“Where did you put your clean clothes?” Theo asks as he steps out of the water. “I didn't bring any. I didn't plan to take a swim,” I say, standing beside him. “How did you plan to walk back to the packhouse?” he asks, arching his brows at me. “In your bloody clothes?” “I didn't think about that. I just wanted to get the dirty clothes and blood off me.” “It's fine. Raise your hands,” Theo says, and I do as he asks. He slides his T-shirt over my head. “Thank you,” I say, dropping my hands. “You're welcome. Let's go,” Theo says, when he’s done putting on his shorts. I start walking in front of him, but he pulls me back. “Not in front of me. Walk-behind me,” he says, pushing me behind him. “Why?” I ask, confused. “I need to block any unmated wolf from seeing your legs.” “Really? My legs?” I scoff. “Yes, your legs. You don't know what beautiful legs you have, mate. Stay behind me,” he says. “Okay,” I say, smiling at his compliment. Theo is one possessive werewolf. Theo and
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 38
Theo arrives a few minutes later with a few doctors and warriors. The doctors take care of the baby while the warriors help Vanessa to the hospital. Theo walks with me back to the packhouse so I can change my clothes and shower. Walking into the packhouse, I bump into Scarlett walking out. “Oh heavens, my Queen, are you injured?” Scarlett asks when she sees the blood on my shirt. She might sound concerned about me, but I know it’s fake. “I’m not injured. The blood isn’t mine.” “Thank goodness, I was worried something terrible happened to you. I started to wonder who would become our Queen then.” “It’s not that easy to get rid of me, Scarlett. Even if I die, you’ll never take my place.” “Don’t be too certain. The kingdom will always need a Queen, so I’ll keep my hopes up.” I’m about to say something but get cut off by Theo . I totally forgot he was here. “Scarlett, if you like your head attached to your body, you’ll never say such things to my mate again,” Theo says, using his

“We’ll be leaving tomorrow,” Theo says as he gets under the covers as we’re heading to bed. “I can't wait to get back. I miss everyone,” I say, getting under the covers too. “We’re not going home.” “Where are we going?” “It's a surprise.” “A surprise?” I ask, giddy. “Yes.” “Where could we be going that would be a surprise to me? Hmm.” “You’ll see tomorrow,” he says, smiling. “Okay, good night,” I say, kissing him. “Good night, mate,” he says when our lips finally part. *** The following morning Theo and I leave very early. We spend about two hours in the air before landing. We’re in the car on our way to a place only Theo knows what or where it is. I look away from my window when I hear the driver talking to someone. I look ahead and realize we’re in front of a huge iron gate. It’s as big as the gates of the vampire king's castle. “State your business here,” the man inside the security post by the gate asks the driver. “The Alpha King has arrived.” “Oh, forgive me, my
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 40
I walk outside to the training grounds. Ekaterina is getting ready to start training. I wonder how she helps the werewolves train. My plan is to just stand by the sidelines and watch, but a werewolf notices me. “Good morning, Luna Queen” he greets, and every werewolf around does the same. “Good morning. I didn't know you were joining us,” Ekaterina says as she walks up to me. “Actually, I’m not. I came to watch.” “Join us instead. I know Theo said you shouldn't train because you’re not going to war. It still won't hurt to learn how to fight against a witch. You never know when you might encounter one,” Ekaterina says. I think hard about her words. I haven't decided yet if I will follow Theo 's wishes and not fight. It won't hurt to train while I’m deciding. “Sure, why not.” “Great, let me walk you through some things before we begin training. Witches don't have speed and claws like werewolves and vampires, but we’re still a challenging match in a fight because of magic,” Ekateri
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 41
“I’m sorry,” I say when we’re in our bedroom. “I understand having a little fun while training to reduce the tension and make it more interesting, but you have to understand that sometimes that tension is good. If you can handle yourself in a tense situation while training, you’ll be amazing during a real fight,” he says, walking out of the bathroom with a towel. “You’re right. Forgive me for not thinking like that?” “All is forgiven. I’m not angry with you. Take off your clothes.” “Thank you for the towel,” I say and try to take the towel from him, but he refuses to give it to me. “Take off your clothes. I’ll dry you myself.” “I’m not a kid. I can dry myself.” “I didn’t say you’re a kid. I just want to do it.” I think about arguing with him but decide not to. He’s seen everything, so there’s no need to feel shy in front of him. As I take off my clothes, I smell Theo ’s arousal. Then I feel how turned on he is when his cock presses against my back. I turned away from him to ta
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 42
I walk downstairs to find Theo after I finish talking to Mom. The castle is so big that I think I’m lost. I’m about to ask one of the guards if he’s seen Theo when I smell his scent in the door across from me. I walk toward the door, and I’m about to open it when I smell someone else’s scent inside. He must be in a meeting. I’ll come back later. I turn around to walk back to my room when I hear their conversation, and it pricks my interest. Werewolf hearing abilities make it hard not to hear everyone’s conversations. “We cannot afford war right now, my King. We don’t have the numbers,” the person with Theo says. “What would you have us do? Surrender to the vampire king?” “Of course not.” “Then what the hell are you saying, Jeremy?” Theo yells and I hear a bang on the table. “There are other ways. We can offer a peace treaty. Maybe talk to him and find out why he’s suddenly killing our kind. If he wants something from us, and we have it, we should give it to him. It would spare a
Prisoner To My Mate CHAPTER 43
“Tell me what’s bothering you, dear,” Mom says when we take our seat in the living room. “I need you to tell me how the vampire king plans to use my blood to revive his brother.” “You’re doing no such thing!” she screeched, understanding immediately why I’m asking the question. “Mom, werewolves are dying. More every day. I can’t sit back and continue to allow my people to die because of me.” “You’re not responsible for their deaths. Only the vampire king is responsible for that.” “I’d love to believe that, but it can’t be pure coincidence that he started killing werewolves after we rescued you from his prison.” “The vampire king hates werewolves. He might’ve been planning to go to war with us for a long time. Maybe it just happened after I was rescued that he suddenly decided to wipe out the werewolf clan.” “Mom, you know there’s very little chance that’s true. I’ve decided to offer myself to him with the condition that he stop killing werewolves.” “You’ll do no such thing. I
