The Prince’s Unwilling mate by Mutya

It takes a long time before Selene continues. Normally that would make me feel anxious or jumpy. And I am not a fan of it now either. But, in an environment that is as peaceful as this is. I cannot feel too anxious.

“I have seen a rise in chosen mates in the recent five years or so. Not situations where you lost an earlier mate. Or if you never found your mate and fell in love with someone. No situations where wolves think they can find a better wolf than the one I picked out for them” Selene suddenly starts, and I blink at her in confusion.

Sadly I was wrong, both in David’s capability to love and in Phillip‘ s capability to let his family make their own decisions.” Selene looked guilty and I still had a lot of questions left. I sort of got why I was mated to David and what it would bring him. Or would have brought him if it was not for him rejecting me? I still couldn’t come up with anything David could bring me. Nothing that was in it for me so to speak.
