The Mate's Forbidden Secrets Chapter Sixteen
Aria directed me to go take a shower. Once we were done here, we'd be headed to meet Elder Isolde.Apparently, the King had also told them about my new appointment.I got out of the shower and slipped into neat, cute clothes—a short summer dress that fell just above my knee.I was happy to find hair care equipment already situated in the bathroom.God bless Aria's soul.It was the most soothing thing to have my hair washed. I unfolded it from the towel it was wrapped in, now at a loss on how to comb it myself.I didn’t think I should be asking Aria for help with such a task.“Do you need help in there, Valerie?” I jumped at the soothing sound of Aria’s voice, my eyes widening.How did she—? Almost like she could tell what I was thinking. Her soft, amused laughter filled the air.“I’ve heard you let out like fifty sighs in the last ten minutes,” she laughed, her voice still crackling with amusement.Oh right. Werewolf hearing.I sighed dramatically this time for good effect, and Aria l

“I need to take your shirt off, Valerie,” the King fiercely commanded, his eyes blazing. “No.” I let out a loud shriek, followed by a wince at the rapid movement of trying to move away from him. “We need to properly clean your side.” His nose flared. I took in a large breath. I was too weak to handle the painful beating of my heart against my ribs. “No,” I panted out again. This was non-negotiable. The King's eyes flashed swiftly from the large injury to my eyes, as if trying to gauge how serious I was. He looked like he was momentarily considering pinning me down onto the bed and taking my shirt off before he let out a long sigh, wiping his other hand over his face. I wanted him out of my personal space. “Valerie, I need to see the full extent of the injury,” the King spoke quietly, like he was speaking to a wounded, out-of-control animal. “I'm not that hurt. I'll hold my shirt up, and then you can treat it,” I blurted out in a rush, hiding my shaking fingers. I could never l

I turned my head away from him, ashamed that I looked pathetic in front of him.He stood and stalked to one of the trees, pulling out a bag of clothes.My face flared with heat, and they burned red at his exposed skin. He put on a shirt and pants in no time before returning, his face twisted in deep thought.The King placed one hand against my back and the other at the back of my knees and lifted me up in his arms like I weighed nothing.I inhaled sharply at the third time he was picking me up this way.My heart was running a marathon, and I knew he could hear.I resigned from fighting him and held still, hesitantly placing my head against his chest, my nose taking in his scent. We both remained in silence, and my ears focused on the rhythm of his heartbeat, and I sighed in content.I ignored the part of my mind that warned me not to feel that way.I didn't know I had fallen asleep halfway back to the main pack grounds until distinct chatter pulled me awake.“They do this every night
The Mate's Forbidden Secrets Chapter Thirteen
My blood and body froze at the sight in front of me. The rogue wolf had an ugly snarl on its face, its teeth bared forward in anger.I felt my breathing grow ragged and my chest heaving.I had never seen a rogue wolf before, but I’d heard of how cruel and brutal they could be. They treated the rest of werewolf kind like a threat, and us likewise, because of their mad and dangerous features.What was a rogue wolf doing so close to the royal pack?Rogue wolves always went in groups, just like a pack. If this one was here, then—I drew in a sharp breath. Two other rogues pulled themselves out from behind the large trees, their fur rough and pitch black, just like the first one.The angry growl from one of them had me flinching.My shaking feet tried to take a slow step backward, but that was nearly impossible without ruffling the rogues.My only option was to somehow run as fast as I had come here, but that was also almost impossible—because I had no idea how I got here in the first plac

It was such a relief when dinner ended; I no longer had the appetite to stomach any food. The high-ranking werewolves began to leave the hall after the King left. I sat in my place, unsure of what to do. I sighed in frustration—I didn’t even know the way back to the room, and I wasn’t sure that was where I wanted to go. “Come on, Valerie, let me take you back to your room,” Aria called, standing from her place and kissing her mate goodbye. I sighed in relief. “I’ll join you,” Melanie chimed in. I stood up on shaky feet to follow Aria and Melanie out of the room, feeling bad for the amount of distraction and disruption I’d caused at dinner. “Child,” a voice called. “I’m sorry I used my voice on you. I’m over six hundred years, yet it still controls me more than I control it.” Elder Karina from earlier spoke with creased brows. Her eyes still made my soul uneasy. I didn’t understand her words, but I answered politely nevertheless. “It’s alright,” I said in a soft voice, n

Her words rang loud in my ear, but my eyes were latched onto the King. I had no idea what I was searching for or what I wanted.“Proposed. Nothing’s finalized yet,” Melanie countered.My heart continued to pound, and my skin grew hot.I held back a wince at the most painful howl I’d ever heard, ringing in my head.The King's eyes snapped towards me, almost like he also heard the imaginary howl.That was most impossible.“Mira, go to your seat.” The King’s gruff voice pierced through the hall. She looked like she was about to say something, but then she folded her lips into an enchanting, soft smile and cascaded down the table. She took her seat on one of the chairs meant for friends, beside the Elders—a particular man with the whitest blond hair I had ever seen.Silence echoed in the hall for what felt like a decade. Once the Alpha King took his first bite of food, the rest of the pack followed, leaving only a chorus of utensils and plates scraping against each other, and soft chatter
