Too Late Ex. I'm Mated To The Lycan King

Tonia's POVSweat rivered down my back as I ran around the kitchen. I had spent nearly the entire day here, trying to make sure the food was perfect.Today wasn't just any other day. It was the final farewell rites for the late Alpha as well as the eve of the official crowning ceremony for my husband, Logan Scott, as the new Alpha of Phoenix Pack.I really couldn't trust the pack maids to do a good job at preparing the meal of my husband's family on such a big day, so I did it myself.Over the years, all my efforts to impress them had always gone unnoticed since they only saw me as the 'wolfless' omega who slithered her way into their prestigious family. However, today I wanted to blow their minds off.At the beeping sound of my phone, I quickly brought down the chicken broth from the stove and went over to the counter to get my phone.It was a message from my best friend, Olivia: [Are you pregnant?] it read and my mind emptied for a split second. The truth is, since my first miscarri

Tonia's POVI needed someone to squeeze at my arm because I couldn't actually assimilate what I had just seen. My legs faltered and I had to grip the door frame for support.Logan noticed me then and an expression of guilt washed over him as he quickly stood up and started towards me.He reached out to touch me but I stepped several inches backwards. With a shuddering breath, I turned sharply to run but his hands grabbed my shoulder and he swiftly pressed me to the wall outside the room and sit the door behind us."I was only consoling her!" He gave the understatement of the year. "Lisa is still traumatized about the rape and all. She started crying and I didn't know what to do."I wasn't even sure anything he was saying was sinking in. My vision had turned blurry with tears but I pushed it back with all the strength left in my body. I couldn't break down now. Not yet!"Kissing your fated mate doesn't mean anything to you, is that what you mean?" I yelled but it only came out as a bro

Tonia's POV. Did King Jayden just call her inferior? I had to hold back a laugh at his choice of words."Excuse me? I am his mate!" Lisa spat, looking offended by his words."Mate? What am I missing here?" King Jayden asked, sounding confused."King Jayden, it's more complicated than you think and I don't want to concern you with family matters," Logan bowed slightly again.Family matters indeed! If he wanted to keep this situation private, he wouldn't bring her to such a public function while leaving me out of it all.King Jayden suddenly tightened his grasp around me and my breath became uneven."I'm pretty concerned about your behavior. You have a wife and also a mate, but isn't it a bit disgraceful that you would bring her instead of your wife who has been married to you for years? She deserves to be at your side, but I guess you don't deserve her."I glanced up at King Jayden and was touched by his words because I never thought of things that way. I had supported Logan through

Tonia's POV.Did he just ask me to call him my mate? What did he mean by that?"King Jayden—""Jayden," He corrected with a soft smile."I don't understand what you mean, but why would I call you my mate?""Because we're both fated by the Moon Goddess to be together forever," He responded."What? I believe you're getting things confused , we can't be mates," I argued."Why? Is it because I'm a king and you think that you don't deserve me?" He quizzed. Well, that was true. Why would I, a weak omega, be mated to such a powerful and highly respected King? He wasn't just any king but a Lycan King."It just makes no sense. I don't have a wolf!" I revealed.He let go of my chin and lowered his hand to my chest before responding, "I know, and that's why you can't sense the mate bond between us. But deep inside, Antonia, you know that we have a connection."He said each word while looking straight into my eyes and I was starting to believe that he was right.There was an undeniable connectio

Tonia's POV I hoped he couldn't hear how loud my heart was beating right now. Sitting so close to Jayden wasn't easy, and Olivia made matters worse by not even accompanying us. She was a darling for helping me pack my things from that cheater's house but I wished she had come along with us. "Do you always behave this way when you're nervous?" His majectic voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I glanced at him, and he had this amused expression. I shook my head. "What? I don't understand." "You keep playing with your fingers and biting your lip sometimes," He noticed. I immediately released my bottom lip and separated my hands."I'm sorry," I quickly apologized. "You do not have to be sorry for being nervous, you should just know that I do not entertain bullying in my kingdom or around me.""I'm not going to let anyone harm you or speak badly to you." He spoke with such authority, I almost believed him. "You might be the king but you can't control everyone's actions," I blurte
