Lycan Prince Matteo

Third Person

“I guess Alec will have to stay in the palace,” Matteo told Freya. They were looking at the two, who were now hugging each other. The king looked at them, and he was happy because Camila was very close to him, and had treated her like family. That’s why she assigned her to look after Freya. He stood up and said,

“This is a celebration for us. In addition to the opening ceremony, our dear Camila had finally found her mate from the Midnight Pack.” Everyone looked at the newly mated couple, who didn’t care about what was going on around them and were just staring at each other. But they had to continue the event, and even if they didn’t want to, they had to go back to where they should be.

“Are you that happy?” Freya asked Camila as she saw her smiling.

“Huh?” She reacted and nodded her head fast. “And very excited, princess. I never thought that I was going to find him now,” she added.

“Why didn’t you see him before this? I mean, he was here during the oathtaking.”

“I went to my parents. My mom fought with Dad and he wanted me to help her woo her.” She replied, “When I came back the next day, I kind of smelled his scent but ignored it, thinking I was just imagining it since I was too eager to meet and find my mate. But when I smelled his scent again, I decided to follow it but lost it somewhere. I thought that I was never going to find him,” she added.

“During my training, he was on the other side of the training hall,” she informs her.

“My nose is not as sharp as everyone else’s because I don’t have a wolf or a Lycan. I am an omega, so my senses are not as good as the others. Speaking of Omega, will he accept me if he finds out about it?” She asked worriedly.

“You don’t have to worry about such a thing because Alec is a very good guy. He had been my friend even though he thought that I didn’t have my wolf,” she answered, and that made Camila feel relieved. Having no beasts is one of her insecurities. She saw and knew some wolves who rejected their mates because of being omegas, and they feared that it would happen to her. “You are a very sweet girl; Alec will surely love you. He had no choice because you are very lovable,” she added.

“Thank you, princess.”

“You don’t have to thank me; I was just telling the truth,” she replied. Matteo was just listening to them, and he was smiling internally as he saw how good Freya was when she became queen. Without her knowing it, she had started to act like a true queen and a mother to the kingdom.

Meanwhile, Joric was staring at Freya. He had been liking her since they were kids, but because of what had happened to her, she never noticed him. It was the main reason why he bullied her because he thought that only when he did that would she be able to see him. Growing up, he prayed to the moon goddess to give her to him as his mate.

But when he found out that she had no scent and he wouldn’t be able to know whether he was his or not, he started to feel agitated, especially when his father, Alpha Daniel, always warned him about not getting too close to her.

Until now, he still couldn’t believe the fact that Prince Matteo was her mate. He didn’t want to believe that he smelled her scent when he couldn’t. No one could, so he was suspicious of how the prince managed to know that she was his. He had no idea about the eye contact of two mated couples and would never have, since the school taught them, that they caught their mates’ scents to be able to know each other as theirs.

Alpha Daniel had warned him before he went to the palace to gain more knowledge about the palace and the royals so they would be able to know what they could please them. But he has no intention of telling his father whatever he finds out. He had a plan to do everything he could and give his best to acquire power and strength for his pack. And if ever he found out that Freya was his mate,

The king started to announce the commencement of the tournament, and he informed everyone, especially the Midnight Pack, about Clay and Alec. Joric felt envious that he was not selected to protect Freya. He would gladly turn down the alpha position if it was for her and her safety. He was furious at both Clay and Alec, especially when the latter had already found his mate, who was also the one who took care of the woman he liked.

After the opening ceremony, they were given a chance to enjoy the night, as the competition would start the following day. Matteo and Freya didn’t leave the party; they wanted to be with all the warriors so they wouldn’t feel that the tournament was only for a show. They wanted to show them that the palace was ready to support them and to provide them with their needs to improve their fighting skills and abilities.

“Why are you still here?” Freya asked Camila. “You are still here, so I had to be here as well.”

“You just found your mate, and you want to stay with me? What’s wrong with you two?” she asked, confused.

“He is here as well, so it was fine. Our duty comes first because we will have our time later,” Camila replied. Freya said no more and let the two do what they wanted. Even if she tried to get help from Matteo, their answers would be the same.

“Don’t worry about them, baby. I was so proud of Alec. I already felt his frustration, but he was holding himself up,” he told her.

“Why don’t you just tell them to leave already? Look at them; they both look stupid, staring at each other, smiling like idiots,” she said, and he laughed hard as the new-found mates looked at them, confused.

“I think you need to go, you two,” Clay told Alec. “Come on, man, you are only making me feel envious here. You look as if you want to eat each other!” Clay added.

“Thankfully, there is someone who gets my point,” Freya said.

“Alright, you two. Go and have time together. Get to know each other or even fu** each other; just stay the hell out of our sight.” Matteo told them, which made Camila’s face turn red.

“Your Highness, don’t be too vulgar. See how shy my mate is.” Alec said and walked towards Camila.

“Fine, just go,” Matteo replied, and they both left the party.

Matteo was giving instructions to Clay when Joric approached Freya. “Tell me, is he your mate?” he asked.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“What is this all about, Joric? I thought we had already made things clear. Yes, he is my mate.”

“The prince has been in the pack for 4 months, and you didn’t say anything. Surely you ran across each other, but none of you claimed that you were each other’s mates as well.”

“Joric, is this still about your feelings towards the princess?” Matteo asked, “I had a feeling that she was my mate,” he answered.

“She already told you that you’re not. Stop this nonsense, Joric, because I don’t like the idea of someone claiming what was already mine.” Matteo warned him,

“I am going to get stronger, so when I finally get the chance to know that you are mine, I will be able to defend you and our bond,” Joric said before he left. Matteo, Freya, and Clay were looking at him. They had no idea that he was still holding her and believing that she was his.

‘Just you wait, Freya, you’re going to be mine.’ Joric told himself this as he walked back to his dorm.
