Forbidden love

"Sylvia come down here now!" My father's voice echoed off the castle walls using his alpha tone.With a sigh I cast a crestfallen look at my chamber maid and only true friend Sara. "Did he sound angry to you as well?" I ask before opening the door. she nods sadly saying "You best hurry to the throne room my lady before he becomes enraged again." i sigh remembering the last time father was enraged. I lift my skirt looking at my scar before I exit my chamber and begin walking to the throne room. "Yes father?" I say in a questioning tone as I enter the room straightening my ruffled skirt. He gives me a cold stare before speaking." I have decided since you shall be 19 and shifting in a few days that it's time for you to have a mate." I stare at him in shock for a moment before I speak. "But father how can I have a mate before I have my wolf to tell me who my mate is?" His look of rage silences me as I wait for him to speak. "You will reject your goddess given mate when you find him. As I have chosen a mate for you, and since you will be chosen mates there won't be any pesky mate bound to weaken the next king should you die. Make yourself ready he will be here upon the marrow." My eyes widen in shock as I bolt from the room back to my chamber. Once safely inside my chamber i collapse to the floor allowing tears to fall from my eyes. "How could he do this to me? " I wonder aloud to myself. Just then my beloved friend and chamber maid Sara knocks at my door. "My lady please allow me to enter." she says sounding like a frightened mouse. Sighing I stand up and open my chamber door allowing her to slip inside. "Sara my father is awful he wishes for me to reject my goddess given mate for the wolf he has chosen for me." She let's out a little gasp at my words as I kick my footlocker. "My lady that is dangerous wolves who reject the one made for them by the goddess live horribly short lives and always have children cursed to not have a mate." She said sitting on my bed waiting for a response. "I know Sara and I'll never live the kind of life. I'm gonna go for a ride please have my dinner gown ready when I return." I say thinking of how Little my father knows about the fact that I wouldn't allow this nor reject my goddess given mate. I quickly stand running to my closet changing into my riding clothes, before leaving the castle. Knowing I'd followed by my guards as I made my way to the stables.
