Prescott
“I already told my Beta and Gam ma to prepare for the ceremony,” I muttered, looking at my stubborn father who had his stu pid reasons to hold this ceremony on full-moon night.
“The auspicious ceremonies should be held on full-moon night, son,” he began again though I had refused him to believe those stu pid things that the chaplain said. “It’s necessary to follow his instructions. He wants only good for the pack and our ancestors also used to do every propitious work on full-moon night because of the blessings of the Moon Goddess.”
“It’s f ucking twenty-first century, Dad. For f uck’s sake, let me just get it done,” I raked a hand over my hair while Matilda lowered her head, probably feeling embarrassed that she had to listen to our arguments over a ceremony that was hers.
“There is no way I’m letting this happen tonight and that’s my final decision,” he said, leaving no room for arguments.
“Excuse me,” she said, looking in between my father and me..
I tightened my grip on her waist but she glared at me before struggling to get rid of my hold so I let her go. The f u*king stubborn brat. She needed a lesson to learn to behave in public. My father didn’t know about our contract marriage. I had lied to him that she had accepted me as her chosen mate and we were in love.
He being the tradition-followers will never let me marry someone with a contract. He still believed in the fated and mates buls hit. My Mom and he were chosen mates and he was so head over heels for her that even after her death, he didn’t accept anyone else. as his chosen mate.
I wasn’t emotional or superstitious like my father. I knew that sometimes we needed to get the business done either by h ook or crook. There were some specific things that I kept from my father, not because I was scared of him but because I didn’t want to waste my time and energy fighting him.
“There is no mark on the Princess’s neck yet,” Dad narrowed his eyes at me. “You told me that you were chosen mates, Prescott. Why haven’t you marked each other yet if you’re so in love?”
“She was healing, Dad. You can’t expect me to f u*k her when she is sick. I’m not that cruel,” I co cked a brow at him.
He let out a wry chuckle. “All the rumors about your cruelty are false,” he mocked me, “I wondered why she chose you when she could have any other Alpha. The poor girl

doesn’t know what she has gotten herself into.”
“Her father has arranged her marriage with me so she was mine but staying in her f uking mate’s pack for a few years has taught her that she needs a strong Alpha and only I’m capable of providing her the safety,” and revenge, which I kept to myself.

“I heard that you have caught the culprit who attacked our pack last time. Why do I hear things from other people always?” he crossed his arms and watched me keenly.
Shaking my head, I sighed. “They know nothing, Dad. All the things that you hear from these st upid people aren’t true,” I lied to him and left before he could investigate more. That’s why I lived in a separate apartment so he wouldn’t nag me.
He didn’t need to know about this creature and the ways we were dealing with him.
My gaze followed the crowd, finding my spoiled wife who was chatting with Serena. They both had gotten along and were friends which made Serena comfortable to ask her about my s*x drive and Matilda had a face as if she would throw her food out.
“Seems like someone has caught our Alpha’s interest,” Caleb taunted, walking beside me toward the ladies.
“You’re the only person who knows about my contract so don’t bluff and you out of all people don’t give me that f u*king look,” I warned him and he raised his hands in defense.
Caleb and I grew up together, educated together, and trained together so we became best friends in our childhood. He was the only person who was aware of my darkest sins and everything about my life. I trusted him blindly because I knew that he was loyal to
me.
“Judging from your frustration about the Princess’s clause in the contract, I can see it in your eyes that you want her,” he smirked.
“I don’t have to ask any woman to pleasure me so I’m not lacking in that department,” I winked at him. We both had our fair share of fun that involved women and we still went to the human towns every weekend to visit the nightclubs.
“Women are always throwing themselves on you but she is the only woman who has. been able to resist your charm and doesn’t want you,” he pressed his lips into a thin line, stifling a smile.
He knew that he wasn’t wrong about it. She had caught my attention but I won’t give in to it that easily.
“Matilda is not my type. She is just a stu pid and spoiled royal princess. I can’t believe she got cheated by that as*hole mate of hers for years,” a scorching heat enveloped my

heart. “And on that, I want that ba st ard on the crowning ceremony.”
“He will be found soon. Gam ma Jericho is finding him.” Caleb nodded his head and I looked at her back, swallowing hard. I couldn’t deny that she was so se xy and beautiful.– Just the view of her bare back and I couldn’t stop myself from touching her in the
bathroom.
Serena quivered as she felt my presence. Her eyes widened with shock when I grabbed Matilda’s waist from behind and laid my chin in the crook of her neck before giving her a peck on the cheek.
A shiver ran down her spine and her body stiffened under my touch. I could hear her heart galloping in her chest which made me smirk.
‘She won’t be able to resist you for long.’ Caleb remarked through the link, noticing her heartbeat.
“I will have to steal my wife from you for a moment, Serena,” I said, kissing her neck.
My wolf never reacted to any woman like that. The urge to mark her right there and right then was too strong to resist. My wolf was feeling hazy with lust, desperate to mark
her ours.
“She is all yours, Alpha,” Serene replied immediately with a smile on her pale face.
“Yes, she is mine,” I whispered into Matilda’s ear and she bit her lip before clearing her throat, putting her hands on mine and forcing me to pull away.
Caleb mumbled, hitting on the nurse, “Let me serve you the dinner, Serena.”
“No thanks, Beta. I can take it myself,” Serena frowned and left the spot. Caleb followed. her like a puppy.
‘Seems like there is a girl who doesn’t want you, I teased my best friend, enjoying their
banter.
‘She is mine. She just doesn’t know yet,’ he replied coc kily.
