The Lycan Princess' True Mate

Chapter 11

As the sun got higher in the sky, we decided to head back to the cabin. It had been a little over 18 hours since I had slept. I came here last night to get away and think. However, the only thing that last night did was create more questioning and upsetting thoughts. Other than meeting my wolf, the only other good thing that happened was me finding my mate. During our walk back, I took every chance I could to glance at his butt. It was the most perfect butt I had ever seen. At one point I just wanted to pinch it, so that is what I did. He screamed like a girl and I couldn't help but break out in a fit of laughter. "Nev, you scared the s**t out of me." He protested, stating that is why he screamed in that manor.

"Oh no! the big bad wolf got scared!" I taunted him, and then he joined in laughing just as loudly. When we were done being silly, he told me that he couldn't be happier to be mated to such a woman as me. Instantly I started to blush and put my head down. He picked my chin up with his finger and kissed my lips. When he pulled back, his eyes darkened, "Soon this big bad wolf will be all you think about."

He turned back around and continued walking back to the cabin. I trailed behind him slightly, trying to figure out what he meant. I opened the back door to the cabin and all of a sudden I could hear footsteps as if some one had gotten up quickly making their way towards us. He instantly got in front of me, making it so he was the first one seen. The smell of the person hit me and I instantly knew who it was. I linked my mate and told him, to relax, that it was the infamous Heath. He asked how I knew and I told him that he wore a certain cologne and after being with him for so long, I could tell that smell anywhere.

When Heath came around the corner, he and my mate locked eyes and Heath froze. Heath Questioned him about who he was. The anger in Heath's eyes started to become more noticeable. I was standing off to the side of my mate, but still able to see what was going on without Heath seeing me.

"Where's Nevada?" Heath demanded. I placed my hand on my mate's back. He turned towards me and smiled. He made room for me by stepping to the side for me to come up the stairs and stand besides him. I gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek and looked Heath right in the eyes. "Can I help you with something, Heath?" I asked him, trying to hide all the hurt and pain in my voice as it started to tremble. Heath looked at me and then my mate. "I need to talk to you.... ALONE!"

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes back up and locked eyes again with Heath, I said using my royal tone, "I need to stop you there, you are no longer my boyfriend, my mate, or even my friend for that matter. So anything you do have to say to me, you can say in front of him. I have nothing that I need to hide nor anything that I want to." I said this with as much confidence as I could muster up, because he had broken my heart just the night before.

He paused briefly and stared at my mate for a bit. Then he looked at me again with hate in his eyes and said, "No! We will talk in private! And who the hell is this guy any way?" I turned and looked at my mate and smiled brightly at him. I turned back toward Heath and told him that "this guy" was everything that he wasn't. When Heath didn't understand what I meant, I had to break it down for him.

"This guy right here is my best friend, my boyfriend, but most importantly, this guy right here is my mate. So talking in private is a big no go for me. And if you need to speak to someone in private about a personal matter, you have your very own mate to do that with. You no longer need me for any of that. By the way, where is she right now?" Heath just stood there with his mouth wide open. When he finally got himself together, he questioned why I was acting like that, and if we could be friends. And that was honestly the last thing that I wanted in this world right now. I told him that boyfriends don't keep secrets like he did. And neither did my friends. I went further into the cabin and went to walk past Heath when he grabbed my arm to stop me.

The next thing I hear from behind me is "Wrong move little boy." Then my mate is right next to me picking him up by his shirt. "Now she told you what she had to say. And after 5 years of her life devoted to you, you hide your mate from her. You are a disgrace, but I will only say this next part to you once. If you EVER put your f*****g hands on my mate again, I will kill you. Where you stand do you understand me?" Heath nodded his head as quickly as he could. My mate let him go and he dropped to his knees, breathing very heavily.

"I do have a question for you though. How did you know that I was here? And how did you know how to get here?" I asked, praying that he didn't say Mel or Rain, because I specifically asked them both not to say a word to anyone. "Rain told me. I told her that I really needed to talk to you." I smacked myself on the head. This was the only thing that I asked them to do. Not say a damn word to any one. I cant even trust them, and they are also supposed to be my friends. What the hell is going on here? Tears started coming down my face and my mate linked me.

"Dont worry about any of them, baby girl. I will never lie to you or break a promise." Even though his words made me feel better, I was still very upset and depressed that the 3 people I would have given my life for, couldn't even be honest with me and keep what I told them to them selves. I told Heath that I wanted him to leave the cabin right now and to never come around me again. I can never forgive him for what he's done. I walked over to the front door and opened it. Heath looked at me, and at first didn't move a muscle. My mate went to go back up to Heath and then he took off like a cockroach when the lights came on. I had never in the 5 year relationship seen him run that fast.

My mate tried to apologize if he came on too strong with Heath. I placed my hand on his chest to comfort him. I told him that he did nothing wrong. And even if someone were to say he did, I didn't think that was the case. He placed his forehead on mine and kissed my lips. Then he took a deep breath and smiled. "Now I have something to ask of you." I said to him, unsure how he was going to take it. His response was not what I was expecting. I asked if I could have some time alone to process the events of the last 24 hours of my life. He not only agreed but asked if it was okay if he spent a few days with me. I told him that was perfectly fine. He said that all he needed to do was let his beta know that he was going to be here a few more days than expected. He said he was going to head back and get what he needed to take care of and I told him that I would meet up with him later. He kissed my cheek and I walked him to the front door and opened it for him.

My life has done a complete 360 in less than 12 hours. I am thankful that he is very kind and accepting of me. I will never tolerate any kind of abuse when it comes to mates. No matter which side it comes from. I make sure both the front and back doors are locked. I go to the couch to try and take a couple of hours' nap. I am very exhausted, but staying on the couch will also let Hera hear if anyone is trying to get in. I will figure out what comes out in a few hours. I lay on the couch and turned the TV on. As I lay there I cant help but think about him and that kiss we shared. I felt things in my body that I had never felt before and just thinking about everything I was getting turned on. And by the way that Hera was acting, I knew that she liked it too.

I was starting to get wet just thinking about him, fantasizing about the things that he is going to end up doing to me when we are fully mated. I closed my eyes to imagine our first time we slept together. All of a sudden, this voice came out of nowhere and said "Ma'am, I have already asked you once to please stop thinking like that and if you don't listen to what I am telling you you are going to leave me no choice and make me go back there."

Instantly my eyes shot open. I was so embarrassed I completely forgot he told me that. My face turned all different shades of red. He wasn't even here and it felt as if he was. I apologize for any inconvenience i have caused. And instantly he responded and told me that I didn't. I needed our link and put my block up. I cant believe I just did that.

This is starting to make sense now. Everytime he has given me that look, was linked to everytime I was thinking about him in some kind of way. The time I was checking out his butt and then pinched it. I believe his scream was done purposely for me. When he had our first kiss and he kissed me deeper. When we were walking back and he linked me, and then during the graduation party. And then there was the first time we 'met.'

But that first time he looked at me is something I will never forget. When he locked eyes with me, I honestly believe now, that then I was given signs that he was my mate. I felt such a very strong connection to him. But without having Hera at the time, I had no idea what that feeling meant. I have never in my life felt like I have known someone my whole life, from just locking eyes. But with him that is exactly what happened. There might be some people who won't like this thing between him and I. But I don't give a damn. He is my mate, a very strong one at that. My only hope is that my parents like him. From now on, it is going to be just the 2 of us against everything else in life.

Just me and Alpha Daniel.
