Mate by Fate, Bound by Love

Claire’s pov

I couldn’t imagine the life I have been brought down to, I, who was a princess that was respected in the whole pack was brought down into the level of a mere slave.

I went into the room and saw them packing my bags, I and Adrian shared the same room as he was my betrothed and we were required to have babies as a way of sealing the deal.

He came inside as his cold eyes rested on me

“You’re not permitted to stay in the room again” He said.

I looked at him as I was surprised on the action that he had taken.

I know that he hates me right from time but I never knew that I would be thrown apart because of a mere lady.

I went out of the room as I didn’t want him to see my tears, over the centuries, what had gone wrong?? I pondered.

Although we were enemies, we had been maintaining our distance, in the eyes of others we were a perfect couple that only had eyes for each other, only I knows the tumoil that’s within this perfect “marriage.”

I came back to the room only to find out that the room was empty of my clothes as it was filled with another person clothes. I don’t need a soothsayer to tell me that it was the other lady who claimed to be the Luna clothes.

I went into the chambers and I realized that the maids attitude has changed towards me. I was angry as I went forward to ask them what’s the reason.

“Why are you not respecting me??” I asked

“It’s an order from the Alpha himself” One of the maid responded.

I was amazed by the response the maid gave me, in my wildest dreams I could not imagine that there will come a day when I would be treated like a mere commoner.

I saw Adrian coming out, realizing that he was alone, I was relieved because I did not want to see Lena who he introduced to the pack, seeing her always made me annoyed.

He was walking with his personal guards, He looked at me and saw that I was walking towards his direction, he stopped.

I went to him and bowed my head.

He looked at me disdainfully as cold words proceed out of his mouth

“Anything the matter??” He asked.

I looked at him and replied

“I’ve lost my respect in this palace ”

“You should be grateful that you’re still assigned with maids ” He said

I looked at him and I was surprised by the words that he gave me, deep down within me, I wished that he could show a little bit of concern towards me but I realized that I was just imagining things.

“Do you have anything more to say??” He asked

I shook my head as he left my presence, before leaving, he said a word which broke me

“Don’t get too attached to me, I don’t want Lena to get the wrong idea”. He said

I was heartbroken and devastated at the news that he gave me, or was I wrong in judging his emotions, during the period in which I was acquainted with him, I never got to see him smile which was awkward at the beginning.

He is known to be a cold blooded beast who doesn’t show emotions when he is dealing with his enemies.

The first time I was introduced to him, he showed a nonchalant attitude towards me and treated me like an air, I did not exist in his world.

I was only treated like a royalty when we attended ceremonial function, I was tired of wearing fake smiles on my face whenever we attended such functions.

After attending such a ceremonial function, we were back to where we started. It was always so annoying when I behaved like a stranger in my own home.

I did not know what I had done in my past life that qof her and I was boiling inside.

I went to the market and I was amazed by the looks that was been given unto me.

Their gazes were of different kinds – some were filled with mockery, some disdainfully, some filled with pity while others were looking at me with concern.

Although I tried not to show it but I was bothered by the looks that I received from the wolves at the market square.

Also, I could not get anyone to follow me for hunt, when I was only the Luna of the pack, many people tried to go with me in order for them to be in my good books, but right now I’m been avoided like a plague.

It was not a news that Lena was an Omega but many wolves flocked around her, because she was the Alpha little princess, me although I knew that their intent was not genuine, I was annoyed with it.

I should be the one enjoying all the attention and not her.

To the wolves she was the future Luna of the pack, the one who was going to rule side by side with her.

I was in the chambers, the only “goodwill” that Adrian did was retaining the maids which were with me and not disposing them.

I detested their presence but at this situation, I enjoyed their presence because I was not ready for any humiliation that will come my way.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

I am a proud girl who has offended many people in the past, I am quite sure that there are many wolves most especially the betas who rejoiced and was gloating over my misfortune.

I was enjoying the coffee in my hand, and was happy that there was nobody to disrupt this happy atmosphere when Adrian entered with Luna.

His hands was on her waist and a blissful expression could be seen on his face, which made me confused because I have never noticed the change of emotions in Adrian ever since we met.

I smirked as I thought of possible ideas that will bring down this harmonious atmosphere between Adrian and Lena. Adrian is mine and mine alone.
