Karmin's POV

I woke up to and empty bed and was very confused. I was sure that Nicolaas had brought me up here and I pulled him onto the bed with me. I must admit, this was the best sleep I had in years and couldn't believe how relaxed and refreshed I felt. I was about to ask Isabella if it was all a dream when I heard a noise in my lounge. No one but the Beta and Gamma are allowed up here.

I: its our mate stupid. you can smell his yummy scent all over us

I took a deep breath in and sure enough his scent washed over me and relaxed me... OK so I wasn't dreaming and he was really here. I took a breath and walked out of the bedroom. I caught him stuffing food into his mouth. " I promise I was going to leave you some of this platter" his eyes were wide. I couldn't help but giggle. " aaah please tell me I didn't miss the lunch?" he smiled and handed me a plate of food and poured me some tea. " no my love you havent. you have only been a sleep for an hour, we still have another hour before lunch is served. You kind of fainted so I wanted to make sure there was food for you when you woke. I did try to wake you when the first platter arrived... but you wouldn't wake up and I didn't want to let the omegas efforts go to waste"

oh my Goddess he is giving my puppy dog eyes, my heart was melting. I couldn't help but smile. I guess this is as good as of a time as any to talk just the two of us.

"so did you really mean what you said about not wanting Alexia in any way?" he sighed and ran his hand through his hair. " I'm not going to lie and say I never slept with her but what I will tell you is why, whether you want to heat it or not you need to know. " I took a deep breath and nodded. " the first time was at my 18th birthday. I had as you already know shifted by then and was feeling a pull towards you but it was strong when I first shifted and I thought once I turned 18 like any other wolf the mate pull towards you would take full effect. I was heart broken when I had turned of age and the pull just stayed the same. I was angry and confused because I felt something for you that I didn't feel for anyone else but it was clear we weren't mates. So in my stupid and hurt rage I grabbed the closes shewolf and took her to my bed." " just continue" " Well um ya. I only realized after who it was and what a huge mistake I had made.

After that I tried my best to stay away from her as much as possible. I thought if I ignored her she would get the hint and back off... sadly that only made her crazier. The second time Alexia had drugged me. in all honesty I thought my wildest dream was coming true and it was you. I kept speaking you name the whole time that much I do remember. I was beyond disappointed and confused when I woke up next to her and not you. I was angry when I realized what she had done. I spoke to Oliver and told him to get a hold of her. I panicked a bit not knowing whether I had got her pregnant but she never showed so I thought well she wasn't. The next time it happened was the night of your birthday. I thought maybe it was because you were so much younger than me... but when you turned 18... " " before you go into details about that... I saw it once I don't need to relive it." He just stared at me. " I am sorry, I didn't know."

" um well she was there again just waiting in wings for a chance. I again regretted being with her especially seeing as the whole entire time I was thinking of you and how it would feel to be with you. Will didn't speak to me for months he could believe that I kept letting this Shewolf touch us. He was disgusted by her. I went away to train which helped. I kept meeting other packs hoping to find my mate but I never did. My heart ached for you and so did Will's. We both had decided that we were going to ask you to be our mate. The pull towards you was becoming to much to bere. We felt like we had given you enough time to find your mate and we were hoping you would accept. But when we came back your parents had past and you were thrown into being Alpha. I remember standing there that day rubbing little circles on your back when that mutt looked at you and said mate.

My world came crashing down and I honestly felt like all was lost. I wanted to challenge him for you but I felt like you deserved happiness with your Goddess chosen mate. I broke down and I was shattered."

I looked into his eyes and I could see the hurt he must have felt that day and my heart ached. All I wanted to do was crawl into his lap and tell him it's ok, that he didn't need to carry on... but I needed to know the truth before I even thought about having a life with him.

"Alexia was there once again to grab the opportunity to be with me. We drank bottle after bottle. She tried her best but I was interested. That's when she brought out the last bottle. She had drugged it only bring it out when she realized I wasn't giving into her. Again I thought I was with you, I thought you had come to me to be with me, sigh but when I woke up and saw her.... I lost it. I gave it a few months but I was done. I called her and her family in. I stripped her of her social standing within the castle I had her banished from entering the castle unless she was given an invite from myself. She tried in those months before the coronation to come to see me. She would send me gifts of food and drink.. but every time it was tested it came back positive for being tampered with.

When the night of the coronation came and I smelled you scent in my room... thats when I knew all my prayers had been answered. Even if I wasn't your second chance mate, we had decided to ask you to be our chosen mate. I knew I loved you. I had always love you and we decided that even if you had been with that Mutt, we still wanted you."

"you wanted me? all this time you wanted me but got her?" " basically yes. I was going to tell you everything and then let you decide what you wanted to do with her. I swear on the Goddess that I never touched her the night of my coronation or since." " No I believe you, I would have felt that.. Like I said to Dolton... I know what that type of betrayal feels like.... so you aren't angry or hurt about how I handled her or my decision?"

"hell no. the fact that she is locked up gives me huge relief and I know it does to Oliver too. I imagine her mother will come to plead for mercy but I've given them both actually enough chances to stop their shit." " But you followed her when they took her away, after the challenge..." I could feel tears threatening to fall. " What?! no no my love I didn't follow her. I saw how you snapped at Hailey... all I wanted to do was run to you and hold you and take you right there... but I also wanted to give you space. I just needed to think about what I had just seen and how I was going to get you to believe me that the pup wasn't mine.. I wanted a clear and calm head before I spoke to you... I came up here but you were gone.. I guess speaking to Dolton." a growl threaten to leave his lips.

I let out a breath and placed my hand over my heart... i thought I was going to have to reject him but it's clear after today I am the only one he wants. Nicolaas took my hand and held it in his... I focused on how good the sparks felt between us.. he tilted my head up. " Please know... I am not proud of any of it and I wish I was stronger I really do. and I'm not proud of this next part.. I guess it is the Lycan coming out but I need you to know that if by some small chance that pup was mine.. both she and the pup would be dead."

I looked at him with a shocked expression. He really would have killed her and the pup just so that I was his only... that any pups we had were his only... I looked at him a little scared. Scared because of what he would have done if the pup really was his and scared because I would have let him. Isabella was dancing around in my head after hearing how our mate would have killed that mutt so we were his only.

" I don't know what to say to that." " I know... the thought scares me too my little mate but it's the truth. I have waited for you for what feels like a lifetime and I'm not going to let anyone get in the way now that I know you are mine." his hand was still under my chin. In this moment all I wanted was to kiss him, but I wasn't going to make the first move. I had been so open when they arrived this morning but now... he needed to lead. We looked into each other's eyes and for just a moment he looked at my lips. Before I knew what was happening his lips came down onto mine and he started to kiss me.

Nicolaas POV

I can't belive this is happening.. I am actually kissing her. I am finally really kissing her. Her kiss was everything I had ever imagined and more. Her lips were just as plump as they looked and her taste, the moment I tasted her I knew was going to be my own personal drug. I was never going to get enough of this. I gently bit her bottom lip to allow me access into her mouth. When she gasped I pushed my tongue in allowing me to only slightly deepen the kiss.. I needed more of her. I pulled her into my lap so she was straddling me. I smirk to myself even with her on my lap I'm still a bit taller than her. With her hands fisting my shirt. I reached my one hand to the back of her neck, titling it so that I could deepen the kiss... while the other found its way to her round toned ass. I was kissing her as if my life depended on it. As if this was just another sick dream that ended in me waking up alone in my bed.

I couldn't stop and I needed more of her. I felt the sparks along my collar bone... I guess she was moving her hands up. I trailed kisses from her mouth and down her neck... right to the spot where I would leave my mark. I didn't know if she would want that yet but I was definitely going to leave some form of mark there... I started kissing and sucking her marking spot and the sound that left her perfect lips was almost my undoing... I could feel Will fighting to take control. Him screaming to mate and mark her so that she would have no more doubts. But the only problem with that plan was we were on a schedule.

I forced myself to stop. We both just sat there panting and trying to catch our breaths. I could see the look in her eyes. She wanted me to claim her right there and then... but I had been waiting too long for her. it wasn't going to be some quick little f**k. I wanted to make love to her again and again until her voice was hurting from screaming my name. " Please my little one... don't look at me like that. You made promises about giving answers and I want to take my time with you. I promise you this.. If you are still willing and wanting by the time we are done with our day... I will bring you back here fully claim you as my Mate and Queen"

Her eyes flashed the deepest purple I had ever seen... Hmm so that's what they look like when they are horny I smirk. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "Fine. If you are still willing after what I have to tell you then I'll fully claim you as my Mate and King" She leant forward kissed me right where her mark would go. Normally the females don't mark their Mates but I was more than happy to have her mark me if that's what she wanted. She placed a small kiss and ran her tongue over my marking spot.. It sent a wave of pleasure down my spine and right to my c**k. " careful little one.. you don't want to break your promises now do you." with one roll of her hips she got up and smirked at me... " I suggest you take 5 before we go down for lunch" She winked at me and left....

oh little mate you are playing with the big bad wolf... and he will make you pay. I couldn't wait for this stupid meeting to be done with so that I could bring her back to our room and fully make her mine.

Karmin's POV

I won't lie, I was a little grateful that he stopped us when he did. I had no doubt I would have let him cliam me right there and then with not a care in the world. But I do feel like that once we start there is no chance of stopping. When ever I was stressed and needed a release, he was always the person I thought of when I touched myself. So to be sitting like that on his lap... feeling how I was turning him on... well that was a dream come true. I would never admit this to him but what Alexia had said worried me... I worried that I wouldn't be able to please him the way he needed to be. Don't get me wrong I have kissed a few humans throught the years and maybe let a guy go down on me after all I am an Alpha and and Alpha does have needs but I've never had s*x with anyone, I kept that for my mate.

I looked at the time and realized that it was time for lunch... Once again I had to explain what I went through with my ex mate. I hated it but hopefully this would be the last time I had to relive it.
