Alpha Prince Orion pov Standing with the two females while waiting on my mate getting changed was interesting , one was a wolf but the redhead from the fight was a witch . Both ladies were pleasant, you could tell they both cared for Leonor . “ So your highness , I hope you have good intentions for my best friend . She may come across as a hard nut to crack but she is a very special person and needs someone with patience “ The redhead says while basically sizing me up for her best friend . I nod and smile before i reply “ I promise you both i have only good intentions towards my mate , and i know how special she is plus after watching her fight am sure she could kick me into touch if i upset her “ i say with a small chuckle , trying to mask the discomfort i am feeling being interrogated . Being a prince and an Alpha it's not very often I am questioned about anything . The older she-wolf smiles warmly at me and says “ Son , you have no idea what that young lady upstairs is capable

Alpha Prince Orion pov Stretching, I almost fell off the small sofa. That was the best sleep I have had in a long time. Onix was so relaxed being near Leonor and Jewel . Hearing someone clear their throat I look up to and come eye to eye with the redhead , Lilith the witch . “ Coffee ?” she asks, holding up a mug . “Thanks , is Leonor awake “ I ask as I take the mug from her . “ She’s in the shower. She has to work in an hour, “ she replies . I must have been really tired , I didn't even hear Red come home I think while sipping my coffee . For the first time since I arrived last night I took in the small flat. It's neat and tidy , clean but the furniture is worn and old . I hear the shower turn off and I stand as Leonor comes to a stop in front of me in a towel wrapped around her and her while she is towel drying her hair . I can still see the faint sign of the bruising but she is still stunning . “ Morning , did you sleep well ?” she asks with a small smile on her face . “ Best

Alpha Prince Orion Dinner was pleasant , everyone seemed to like Leonor and she looked to be enjoying herself . I felt her unease when Fallon asked her about her wolf . It was kinda funny Leonor would happily tell us about her abusive childhood at the hands of her father but the mention of Jewel she would almost clamp up . My mate felt so protective about her wolf that she kept her a secret , so much so she would fight in her human form . Onix has already linked with Jewel; he was over the moon and the epitome of a love sick puppy . I won't lie, I'm slightly jealous. My beautiful mate is hard to read for me . I try so hard to be patient with her but it's getting hard , especially when I have her so close her heat and scent is like the biggest aphrodisiac to me . She unintentionally keeps leaning into me when she is asked something that makes her uncomfortable . I have no problem with this in fact she is making me feel relaxed , but the need and want to touch her is overwhelming

Alpha Prince Orion pov I wake as I am thrown into the wall of my room , I jump ready to attack to realise that my tiny mate was glowing . Leonor was clearly having a nightmare , she was thrashing and whimpering in her sleep . ‘ What the fuck ‘ i say in my head , and to say i was shocked by Onix ‘ Our mate’s powers have awoken . ‘ Awoken , what do you mean? ‘ I ask my wolf . ‘ when the chosen descendant of the goddess mates and marks her fated mate her powers will be awoken , come on Orion , why do you think my Jewel is so impressive ?’ . To say I am dumbfounded by this is an understatement . ‘ But how do you know so much about this ?’ I asked him . ‘ Our soul has been entwined forever , we have been mates for more than just this lifetime . Jewel and my memories return after you marked each other ‘ he says with a rather smug look on his stupid face . My attention is drawn back to my mate as another force of power slams into me . Shit i need to wake her up but I can't get close enou

Leonor pov I am all over the place with my emotions , Orion says he understands and will take it at my pace . I know he's made for me but I can't help that voice in my head . I have mentally schooled myself to be strong , I can't help it with my childhood . Two weeks after my mother had died was the first time my father hurt me, as a five year old who couldn't understand why my mummy wasn't here anymore . I watched as my father grew into a monster after that . I very rarely saw anyone unless it was necessary , my father told everyone i couldn't cope with seeing people . The pack saw him as a doting father , that was so far from the truth . As a child I would pray that the moon goddess would save me and she would hear my prayers . I guess in a way she did , she gave me Jewel early . Once I became a teenager I had started to try to avoid confrontation with him . The last time I saw the man who they called my father was after the worst beating that resulted in me being left for dea
