The Alpha King’s Fated Scarred Mate

Jace’s perspective

She licked her bottom lips, strolling towards me.

“Enough with all this foreplay, I’m not going to ever sleep with you.” I said, pushing her away from my side while she squeezes her face.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

She puts on a sober expression, and that didn’t still make me to change my mind. “I’m your wife whether you like it or not. I know I was wrong for acting so silly. I heard the rumours about you. You’re the unlucky nephew of the Alpha who is being treated badly. You don’t even have a saying in the kingdom affairs.”

She freaked, her eyes filled with tears. “on a political gain, I wouldn’t marry someone who isn’t powerful, who even wasn’t the favorite of anyone. But, my father so much believe in you and had even dissuaded anyone in our pack from speaking or spreading any negativity about you. He almost slapped my mom when my mom refuses the Alpha King’s decree for us to marry.”

“I plotted with my mom to stay back in the pack while the maid take my place. She’ll get married to you, and I’ll be given to someone. I never there was such a great conspiracy in your pack, especially in the royal family. It should have been me dead if I had come in person, then it would have been you in jail.” Tears streamed down her cheeks as she muttered.

“My father has faith in you; you misinterpreted his behavior and ended his life. You murdered my blameless father.

Flush of guilt struck my heart, there’s no way I’ll let her know also that the royal family shouldn’t be humiliated.

“You and your father humiliated the Alpha King, and me. Death was involved in the whole mess, while the Alpha King had pleaded with your Father to let go of me, your father declined his pleas, saying you were his only child.”

“That was a bereaved father.” Which father would not have done more than that when they heard their only fruit was being taken away? She countered me with her chest up.

“That was the pain of a father for losing his child, but the later results turns out to be a dirt splashed against The Alpha King which of course, will required the blood of your father and your mother to atone it. Your father knew it.”

” So? Because he’s the Alpha King, no one should challenge him when he is wrong?”

“You may challenge him to find out. And by the way, your father begged me to kill him. He didn’t want his enemy which were in this pack to kill him. He said they were unworthy of killing him.”

Her lips dropped at my revelation, her eyes widening in shock.

Her lips trembled, and she stuttered, “So my father knew about the enemies? Did he reveal their identities to you?”

“Why?” I raised an eyebrow at her. “You are asking so you can kill them?” Then you will get caught, and I will be framed?”

“I will never let them catch me,” she said pleadingly, pouting her lips. She rose, darting towards me.

“Please just provide me with their names. I must avenge the death of my parents. I do not care if you choose to spare them. She reached out, grabbing my hand.

I shook her hand away and stared at her intently. “You have ruined my life enough. I do not want you in another mess; your father begged me to protect you at all costs so you could carry on his legacy, even if it meant convincing the Alpha to marry you again.

“So, what is preventing you from claiming me?” She inquired, in tears.

“I told your father that I will never be intimate with you, but I will do my best to protect you.” I held her shoulders and spoke. “Another thing you should know is that the ministers ordered your father’s death, not the Alpha King, and he only signed off on it.”

“Are you trying to protect him just for his favor or because he is your uncle?”

“Stop being dramatic and simply listen to me. Don’t love me, I’ll never love you. Do not think of marrying me; I will never be intimate with you. Instead, find one of the ministers to seduce and become their concubine; perhaps you will find peace.”

“I will not marry anyone except you.” She fired back.

I swallowed the lump in the back of my throat and laughed softly.

“If the Alpha King does not compensate me with you, I will kill him.”

I walked away from her, ignoring her final words. When I walked to the rooftop to start sketching, a familiar scent hit my nostril.

It is her, again.

She walked with her feet dragging on the linoleum and her hands resting on her hips.

I shook my head at her presence; perhaps she was here to cause another commotion, as she had the day before. I was about to warn her not to bother me about her mother’s death, but her scream cut through the air.

“Mother… Are you listening to me? I am tired of living and want to give up. “No one loves me; no one cares about me.” She burst out crying.

“All my life, I thought I would be happy because you were not happy when you were alive, but those were just dreams that never came true.”

“I was supposed to be the one who married the royal family here because I was the eldest, but Elena, your stepdaughter, was sent here because her mother came from an influential family, whereas you were only an Omega.”

I felt saddened by her lady quote. Our lives appear to be very similar in some ways. Her younger stepsister was treated fairly because her mother came from an influential family, just as Jayden had always been treated favorably because his mother came from an influential family, whereas my mother was simply a dancer’s daughter.

“Am I ever going to be mated?” Elena said that no one would ever love me. Her words hold more weight for me than my very existence on Earth. Why has not my two mates noticed me?”

“Why is Elena better than me and always attracts rich and powerful men?”

“Hmm…” I cleared my throat behind her; she shrieked and turned to face me.

“Your sister Elena is superior to you because she is not as jealous as you. She is not as jaded as you are. She has her own set of problems, but she manages to smile and keep them under control no matter how difficult they are.”

“However, you always seem to complain. If you do not want to be a bitter person, do not admire people who are far superior to you.”

“Elena is good and charismatic enough to capture people’s attention and win their favor. But what exactly are you good at?

I said this, and she clenched her fist in anger. I chuckled, exactly how I had hoped she would react.

“I understand I am your mate, but the Alpha King wants us to mark the She-wolf with the lycan’s blood.” Should I mark you and abdicate the throne? I inquired of her.

She lifted her head, tears streaming down her cheeks.

“If Jayden marries your stepsister, he stands a chance of claiming the throne, but if I marry and claim you, what chance do I have?” She sobbed.

“I wondered what else I could expect besides pain, regret, shame, and reproach. You are dressed as a maid, but look behind you: Elena is dressed in royal attire; do you think her presence would elicit respect from the crowds?”

“My mother was a courtesan’s daughter, while Jayden’s mother was a noble’s daughter. Jayden receives the most respect and acknowledgement. Your mother was an Omega, and Elena’s mother is still your pack’s Viscountess. Who do you think the masses will choose: you or Elena?”

She sobbed and pressed her hands against her face.

“Jayden will marry Elena, and nobles from other kingdoms will attend and shower them with gifts and praise. But, if I marked you, who from your pack would attend our events? Even your father would make excuses, why?” I raised my eyebrows at her.

“Because I am not well-regarded in this kingdom. I am only the son of a dancer who seduces the prince to marry her, and you are the child of an Omega who seduces your father to marry her.

I stepped aside, and she wiped the tears from her face before walking away, her chest rising and falling beneath her visible clothes.

“But,” I said, and her step changed; she turned to look at me.

“If you can persuade me of how beneficial you will be to me in the future, I will give up my desire for the throne and mark you.”

Her eyes widened in surprise at what I said. I am aware of the thoughts going through her mind. I am willing to give up my desire for the throne of power in order to marry her.

I walked away, but stopped right beside her and said, “It is time you stopped allowing him to touch you. “If you let him touch you again, I will fuck you until you can not breathe.”
