She could feel it, a warm hand stroking her cheek. Her face scrunched up in confusion, opening her eyes to see who was touching her cheek. It seemed like she suddenly forgot how to breath, she shook her head as she looked around the room.

"No, why are you here? Where are we?" She jerked away from his touch, not wanting to be reminded of that night many years ago. "Mia" his voice, it was strained making her pin him with a glare when he once again tried to touch her.

She wanted to be anywhere but there. "How am I here? I-I can't remember what happened yesterday. Everything is hazy" her voice was small, making him not like how fragile she sounded. The room was dark and simple, no window. Two small beds on each corner, the walls a boring white and a bathroom with no window.

Mia bolted from the bed, running to the door and trying to open it but she couldn't even turn the handle. "No! No! No! I have to get out of here!" She cried out falling to her knees, her beautiful face scrunched up in fear. The tears in her eyes was making it hard for him to look at her.

She sniffed wiping the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand. She finally looked at him, even after all these years he still looked the same. "Why did you leave me that night?" His voice didn't hold any anger, just...sadness. It made her heart hurt. She knew what night he was talking about, she shook her head and looked away.

"Why do you want to know Alpha king Apollo" her voice was oozing with iciness. She thought she would finally get over him but how could she when they never rejected one another. Her heart was still longing for him, she hated it.

She just wanted to get out of there and return to searching for her children. She should tell him that he is a father but she was afraid. Afraid of rejection, afraid he would call her a liar. "How does a king get kidnapped with all those guards guarding your room" not to mention they were all werewolves and hybrids that were guards.

He shrugged because even he didn't know the events that happened yesterday either. It was a mystery to him. He slowly got up from the bed, walking to her and kneeling down in front of her. "I missed you so much" Mia looked up from the floor, looking at him.

"We just met one time, how can you miss me" she softly said shaking her head. He reached out, stroking her cheek and this time she didn't jerk away from his touch.

"Who wouldn't miss you, I've always admired you from far away. We never met in person but it was something about you that made me want to be everything with you. I always wanted to meet you, to get to know you but that was hard when your father was overprotective over you. I gave up on meeting you because I knew that even if I was royalty I would never get to meet you" he said giving her the same sad smile.

"And then we met years ago, I was so happy when my wolf said those four letters but then after a night I never saw you again. You vanished. Without even contacting me. My wolf wasn't the only one that was heartbroken" he whispered looking away from her. "Did you really hate that night? Did you really hate me that much?" She couldn't help it.

She cupped his chin in her hand and turned his attention to her. She shook her head, giving him a small soft smile. "I do not hate you and that night was the best night of my life" she answered him making him confused. "Then why did you leave?" He asked again, he needed to know.

"It doesn't matter" she answered jerking away from him and standing up. She walked past him and he stood up fast grabbing her arm. "It matters to me" she turned to look at him, his handsome face holding a pained look.

She didn't like to look at him like that, it was also paining her. The look her mate had on his face was making her wolf stir, she stood there for a minute before talking.

She closed her eyes. "That day after we had sex, someone came to the room. A butler and a women. The women called you her brother in law, both told me to get out and then she told me to look outside. I saw you with her" she jerked her arm away, glaring at him.

It finally dawned on him, his ex girlfriend well more like wife now. She had came to the ball to tell him something important, she had told him they needed to talk somewhere private where no one was listening so that is what he did. "That was years ago, I've already moved on" she lied, she hadn't moved on.

She would always wondered how he was, she would go online just to get a glimpse of his social media. Being the werewolf king, he had to keep everything public. "I've moved on just like you have" that was right. He was married now, that was obvious by the pictures she had seen the other day and the wedding band on his finger.

"You are married now king Apollo so let's stop talking about the past and let's focus on how to get out of here" she hissed at him, glaring at him. She banged on the door, once again trying to open it.

She heard the door being unlocked then opened. "You two are not going anywhere until you tell us where exactly are the king of the werewolves daughter and son hiding" the man with a hat and a black mask covering his mouth standing in the doorway said looking at Mia.
