"What does his change of mood have to do with King's IG?" Johnson asked on behalf of my thought. That's what I thought as well. I'm not into social media accounts as all I could see were people posting their daily lives. Don't have Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter accounts. And I have no plans on having either of them as I have no time to tell the entire world about what's going on in my life, especially when I have a darker secret aside from being a wolf; the soft side of me. The side of me whom Ghino's and my closest friends know about it. "Yes. What did King post that changed his mind?" Lackey seconded in motion. "Where you guys have brains? Or at least being updated on what was going on around us?" Jackson inhaled deeply before he explained, "King posted on his IG account about his party. Even mentioned the Prince's name to be one of the VIP guests. And millions of comments immediately flooded the posts. Most were Nathan's admirers. They love to score with him if gi
"Then you better not join the game if you could not dare do it, Nathan. That's too simple." Ghino snatched the empty bottle from Johnson and ordered everyone who would love to join to gather around. As soon as everyone, excluding me, gathered around, Ghino started spinning the bottle. At first, the tip of the bottle was pointed to Lackey. Lackey said dare instead of truth. Everyone then ordered him to drink the entire content of a bottled beer in just ten seconds or less than that. Without further ado, Lackey immediately grabbed a bottle of beer and drinks it. Everyone cheered, chanting in unison. And then the entire game started to heat up when Lackey drank the entire bottle for six seconds. So, Ghino started spinning the bottle for the second time around. This time, it goes to Ghino himself. Before they asked something, all their eyes were dragged on me as if whatever that comes to their minds had something to do with me. "Truth," Ghino said quickly. "If give
{Present day and time: Ten hours later} After a few minutes of staring at Ghino's meekly face, I suddenly realized there were a few people, no, they're wolves, patiently standing in front of the door. I don't know how long they have been standing there but their scents were telling me isn't a good thing. So, I gently crawled out of the bed so Ghino and the rest won't wake up and slid to the doorstep. I first studied the environment from the outside before I dragged my worried gaze back to Ghino and our friends who were unaware of what was going on. "We are not here for trouble, Prince Nathan. Go with us peacefully if you don't want anything bad to happen." A man's voice suddenly reverberated in my ears as I leaned it against the wall of the door. I could barely recognize any of them outside. And around ten wolves were standing in front of the door, two in front of the elevator, and hundreds with the same aura waiting outside the building. Who are they? And what
As soon as we hopped out of the car, boisterous cheering and whooping greeted us. Melissa, on the other hand, kept holding my hands on our way to the main house to make sure everything goes according to their plan. To tell everyone our mating is inevitable. My plan? I don't know yet. Don't have one either. I can't think straight at the moment when my body still feels exhausted and my head was still spinning. "There goes my son, our little prince!" Dad and mum greeted us with a hug. That was the first time they kissed my cheeks for a very long time. Can't remember when was the last time they did that to me. If not because I was about to get mated, they will certainly ignore me for the rest of my life. The last time I checked, my accounts were still frozen until now. That simply means they don't have the plan to give back my access to my funds. Perhaps they already know about my debt. Or not, hopefully. "Nice to meet you again, Prince Nathan." Vladimir stretched out
"Come on son, even if we haven't told you our feelings, about how important you are to us, always remember that everything we do... Is always for your sake. Because you are our only son." Mum insisted. "I don't need any of this, mum. Don't even care if we're broke. You and dad are all I need. I'm fine if I live in a tiny room. Don't care if eat once or twice a day. Don't even care if I fall short of my allowance every month. As long as you and dad were always on my side, it's all that matters to me." While letting out those words to mum, I compared myself to what happened to Ghino. He was all alone in his tiny apartment, yet he survived. That even if the world was so mean to him, he still stands firm. I envy Ghino for his courage and bravery. I had everything, yet I am still sad. He had nothing but he still wanted to be happy. And because of that, I have no regrets about doing everything for him. As long as he is always happy. That's all I ask even if my parents don't
And that was the kind of underrated statement that gives me the feeling to be at ease, telling me that Melissa got the wrong idea about the reason for my terrible expression at the time being. It was better that way. We'll keep it that way. "Anyway, the Mating Night is about to start in sixty seconds. Fasten your seatbelt and grab the microphone now." Melissa added as she gives me a blink of her eyes before she grabbed her seat next to dad and Vladimir behind me. Since it was simply a performance dedicated to all the wolves who joined the Mating Night, Melissa was entitled to grab her seat. And besides, her fate was already sealed with mine. She no longer needs to join what was being written in the program since everyone is making sure she gets touched, marked, and mated with me. Leaving no choice, I grabbed the microphone and leaned in closer to my face. In a split second, the slow and acoustic beat of the music has reverberated through our ears. Even at the start
From the way my eyes pictured it out, Ghino looks like one of those hired servers back in the mansion. He was wearing white long sleeves, black pants, and black shoes. The black bow tie attached to his collar has also even made him more stunning. That explains the food tray in his hands and about why I could not trace his scent in one of those men wearing tuxedos and masks. He was busy helping the mansion serving the food and drinks to the attendees. Also, his profuse sweat was perfume to my wolf's nose. It crawled deep beneath every fiber of my muscle. It was similar to a current that tickles my entire body. And that has made my feelings for him more pragmatic. But his eyes were in contrast to the way I looked at him. At some point, I believed his expression somehow was asking me if I should do the right thing. The right thing about what the event was intended for. "Have you forgotten I am still mated to Lilith?" Ghino said back. "And the president's daughter invi
Later that night, Melissa stayed with me in my room when all the compartments throughout the mansion were fully occupied by the Mating Night attendees. It's already late to travel back. Because they were already got wasted from the post-party celebration, most of them could not make it back to their respective places. So, as the host of the said event, dad ordered everyone, including Melissa and Vladimir, to just stay for the night in the mansion since we still have a few spare rooms intended for visitors. Though I am not used to having someone with me in the room, one to mention a female one, I left no choice. Everyone already expected Melissa could get special treatments from me since we got mated. "I've overheard you got your accounts back, huh?" Melissa said before she jumped onto my bed. Her eyes at me were enticing. They were trying to tell me to jump on the bed as well and sleep with her. Shit. What am I thinking? Why would I think about sleeping with h
