Beth's P.O.V
Oh shyt I finally accepted him as a potential mate. He cupped my chin as he passionately and romantically kissed me. The bucket swayed slightly as we came upon the top of the Ferris wheel. I didn't feel they swaying of the bucket as I was too enthralled with jack to notice. he deeply kissed me and his tongue danced across mine. " jack!!"

I ... before I could finish the sentence  we both spout out at the same time

"Jack ,I want a divorce!"I screamed out as he paled as he blurted out

Elsbeth , I wanta marry  you"..jack blurted out as he took my hands within his. "Wait...What  "we both screamed as the words sank in .

Jack knowingly held the box was in his pocket as he asked"I just needed to know we were on the same page.. then if you don't wanta marry then let's date ."

Laughter sprang forth at his comment"No,shifters don't date. " I added swiftly trying to defuse the tension. " still no I want a divorce"

"I do date I will Do anything for you" he desperately countered as his hands tightened and "Beth,my father won't marry us off for political reasons like the queen would. He believed in a love marriage as he had with my mom . He lets us choose our mates within means at the right time and on our own terms. He vowed that he would never arranged a loveless marriage for his kids like he has now"

I huffed "the king arranged mine"I said under my breath as a hurt look crossed jack 's face as he continued. " to me" he countered

"No Gemma was betrothed to you"

"No dummy you were .. didn't your father tell you that his first born twin daughter is betrothed to the second prince. Elias's mate died from the curse when I was born so the betrothal passed from him to me ..your mine.." he stated proudly

"So,that was suppose to be my wedding.."gulp it was horrible all that fru fru decorations and that cake gosh it was enormous..

He laughed "that's what Gemma said you liked so I wanted to give you anything you wanted..."he looked away as he spoke the words.

"When Your father told me you refused the betrothal decree I was crushed so much so I hid in my tree. My father was opposed to the notion of Gemma was taking your place at the alter. That's why he ordered Gemma not to attend and give a shitty excuse to the absence. This decree caused an uproar with the Queen mother ." Jack informed but continued

"That's why I was opposed to the union in the first place because I thought you rejected me . Don't you get it!"His voice went up a decimals making it reverberated within the small area. "Then and now I still only want to Marry you Elsbeth.. I love you!always have and always will in my heart  your my mate."He confessed " please give me a chance to win your heart I promise you won't regret it."

"Oh " I gasped at his blunt confessionI pulled my hands from his

I could feel that this was a turning point .. no way of going back after this .. either still reject him?or accept him?

Jack Lend over and rested his head upon my shoulder. I could feel his tears soaking my shirt. This is a first time a guy I liked showed and vulnerability in front of me. other than my family lend on my for support and or comfort. I mimicked his actions from the time before I patted his head as he snuggled into my shoulder. "Jack your a good guy and you will find a girl that deserves your love and affection but I'm not her.( I rejected him due to circumstances) that's why a divorce is needed.

"No you can bring me in front of my father and or the shifter council themselves.. but I won't sign those papers." He stubbornly stated. I winced not uttering the fact that my sister had her sights set upon him now and I have no chance "His arms wrapped around my waist as he cried. I don't who was holding who at this point it just felt right.. dare I say it natural.

"I know I made my mistakes in the past but won't let you go.. your my destined mate"he stated swiftly as I pushed him away in the small space..

" no Elliot I'm not"way to mess up a perfect moment idiot he muttered under his breath and run his hand through his hair.

I seen him shove something down deeper within his pocket.he looked out the widow post in his thoughts I peaked into his pocket and seen a ring box... omg!!!

The Ferris wheel finally came to a stop. I bolted out the confided area to only stop in my tracks.

Everything started with a single violently twitch then it drastically turned worse. My hand started trembling violently as if I drank too many Red Bulls entertainers drinks. My knees knocked together as if I were a made of rubber. I could stand or walk straight I grabbed the nearest bench just as my legs gave way under me.

Kyle and Danny dropped their ice cream cones and sprinted towards the Ferris wheel.

Thankfully a crowd didn't crown around they just walked past me .

The moment resembled something out of an old school cult classic horror flick. My skin felt like liquid fire it burned and itched I didn't know if I should scratch or rub. I couldn't help myself i started to scratch as my skin reddened..

"Elsbeth what is happening?"Jack screamed in horror as he ran past the the Ferris wheel attendant. The poor attendant nearly fainted at the sight ..I'll call the ambulance forget the ambulance I will call a Priest .. this is one next level stranger things kinda shy the youth blurted out.  

I don't know ... I screeched as kept scratching my arm . Everything on my right itched and burned as if I had millions of tiny any nipping at my skin.

Is it an allergic reaction Kyle asked Danny. Danny shook his head " if that is an allergic reaction that is the first of it's kind .. I never seen this before.

My blood runs cold as the uninitiated  mate mark forms . "We didn't consummate our mating there no mate mark.why is this happening? "Jack screeched as everyone in the area turn pale while. upon my shoulder the dark ink spread like I intentionally dropped a bottle of ink upon my skin. The family motto appeared

Dark vines branched off the dark scrolled word winding down my right side it covered my right shoulder til it stopped at the tips of my fingers and toes. Dark red roses appeared sporadically upon the twisting vines this glorious word of art stemming from the family motto. Had something to do with the family.
