An Enemy Called Mate

TANIA

I observed how Nikolas pulled his Inferior Beta into a warm embrace, with their body pressed against each other.

I clenched my fists instantly, as my nails dug into my palm. How dare he!

“I can never resist your scent,” he muttered under his breath, and the Inferior Beta giggled. She pushed him away slightly, giving some space between them.

“What if Tania finds out? You know how this mating bond is very important, right?” She spoke with a sweet voice. Then, when Nikolas was not looking, she had a smirk on her face.

Nikolas smiled, leaning towards his Beta. He whispered, “Forget Tania, I will ensure that she stays in Granelma Pack for a while, and then we can execute our plan.”

“What plan?!” I barged out of the closet. As soon as I barged out, Nikolas paused, stunned by my appearance. Meanwhile, that Beta of his smirked.

“I thought you wanted me to leave this pack because you cared, but here you are, having an affair with your Beta!”

Par!

A slap fell across my face that caused me to fall. Standing before me, Nikolas’s nose flared.

“Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to leave this pack?!” He roared, causing my eyes to flutter in surprise.

I gasped, “Nikolas, you hit me.”

“Yes, I did and I will do it again if you don’t keep your mouth shut!” Nikolas roared back.

Hastily, I stood and rushed towards the door, “Wait till my father hear of this!”

Before I could leave, a strong hand grabbed me, causing me to pause in my tracks. The hand pulled me. I stumbled backward and lost my stamina.

Falling, pain surged through my body and I heard soft footsteps approaching me.

“Soon, you will learn to keep your mouth shut,” Nikolas warned with an annoyed tone. Meanwhile, I could feel the environment around me fading away.

A gushing sound echoed. It filled my ear and jolted me from sleep. My eyes fluttered open. Scanning my surroundings, I realized that everywhere was dark.

I yelled, but it came out as a muffled sound because a fabric was around my lips. My wrists burnt silently, then I noticed the shimmering silver cuff around my wrists.

That bastard! How dare he cuff me and keep me in this dark place! I will make him pay for every single burn on my wrists!

I tried to move away. Unfortunately, my hands were cuffed to a wooden furniture and my legs were cuffed, like I was a dog or less.

I hated the upsetting feeling that settled deep in my stomach. I couldn’t help but let out a groan, in pain and discomfort.

“I hate you, Nikolas,” I said to myself. My wolf curled, sadness enveloping her. She didn’t like it when I said such a hateful speech to her mate, but why do I care?

He was right when he mentioned that the Moon Goddess made a mistake by making us mates. She made a very big mistake and I despise her for choosing Nikolas.

If my mother had not persuaded me to let Nikolas mark me, I wouldn’t be in this situation.

My wrists continued to burn, so I stopped moving and cursed beneath my breath.

“Shit, I hate this. It will ruin my skin and take hours to heal.”

Sadly, my mother is from a low pack, a pack that barely manages to survive every year. We didn’t have the ability to mind link, and I could not mind link too.

This means a no-escape to me. I can’t mind-link Father or anyone. Even if I see my Omega, it will be much better. I will be able to speak with her and order her to tell my father about my current situation. I can’t continue this way. This place is suffocating!

I heard footsteps approaching me nearby. My body itched, I wanted to speak, yell, and call out for help. Sigh… It was no use, it became a muffled sound.

“Alpha Nikolas…” I heard my Omega call out.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Oh, thank you, moon goddess! Finally….!

“I have been waiting for Princess Tania’s arrival, but she is nowhere to be found.” I heard my Omega speak softly.

Nikolas replied in a sweet, soft tone, “No need to worry.”

I clenched my fists, as I was annoyed at his pretense. He sounds so sweet and loving, but inwardly, he is a monster who cuffs his mate and cheats on her!

I wish I had the opportunity! I wish I had the chance to spit on his disgusting face and give him a fitting slap!

“There was a change in her plans,” Nikolas lied, “She had an upset stomach and she was rushed to the pack hospital. But do not worry, she will be fine.”

I heard a snap and Nikolas continued, “There is no need to work here. I have enough Omegas to work for my sweet Tania. So, you can return to Granelma Pack.”

No, no! That’s a trick to let her leave!

“Don’t be a fool to believe that bastard!” I yelled.

“Alright, Alpha. I will take my leave,” My omega responded. I heard her soft footsteps recede and my heart squeezed.

The sound of her footsteps faded away and light began to pour through the dark surrounding.

I glanced up, and Nikolas stood tall before me. A smirk appeared on his lips, then he approached me.

“Look at you, so helpless and sad,” He mouthed, and raised my chin.

I gritted my teeth at that moment, and he didn’t stop talking nonsense.

“I like it when I see you in this state. It gives me this giddy feeling that I can’t just describe,” Nikolas continued, causing me to scoff.

“I wasn’t aware that I got mated to a psychopath.”

He furrowed his brows, his green eyes flashing at me with annoyance and anger, “Psychopath? Did I just hear you say that?”

I nodded, ensuring that he knew what I said because the fabric around my lips might make my voice inaudible.

“Yes, Nikolas. You are a psychopath.” I nodded again.
