Previously-

I had wasted loyalty on a man who did not and would not ever deserve it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The wedding was in a week. My parents had arrived and we had not been separated since. My brothers even came too. All Alphas were arriving, due to it being a royal wedding everyone of importance was invited.

Since my last encounter with the king, I had run into many of his 'friends' who shot me cake faced glares and tried tripping me in the halls. I kept it all in and let them do what they wished. After all, they didn't have their mates which was what made them jealous.

Speaking of mates, my brother had found his while in the Kings castle. A sweet girl in the kitchens by the name of Perrie. She was shy and could barely speak a word to me, but I could feel her good intentions. We planned for lunch together the next day.

"Mate" a voice bellowed out.

"My name isn't mate. It's Lily. Your highness" I spat back at him. We hadn't been on very good speaking terms since I had positively found out that I was the only one who cared about loyalty to a soulmate.

"You will not snap at me Mate. You will respect your king and Alpha!" I rolled my eyes.

"You forget that I am also supposedly your mate, even though you do not act like it. I am supposed to be your equal but instead you leave me to fend off your sluts that are jealous because you told half of them they would be your Luna!"

"So you only care about the position?" He replied. Good God I was riled up now. How could he!?

"I am not one of those girls in this castle who would sleep with you to get a position. In fact, I won't sleep with you! Marry one of those other girls that you refuse to see the power hungry in because you think they think you're good in bed" I yelled at him before turning on my heel and trying to get as far from the palace as I could before I would inevitably be dragged back to a prison.

I had made it a foot out the front door before I heard a loud growl from the king. He finally realised how serious I was and I was going to run for my life.

I was only running for a few minutes though before I hand wrapped around my wrist and yanked me back. I fell hard on my bum and consequently on my back.

I looked up at my mate who kept a blank face before throwing me over his shoulder and walking back to the castle.

"Why didn't you get one of your guards to bring me back?" I asked rhetorically.

"Oh that's right. Because you think I'm property. Just like a chair or that throne you never had to work for." I answered myself.

He threw me back to the ground and stared at me for a second.

"I went and got you myself to show you how I care for those who are my betrothed. You don't understand do you? We will be married. We will have pups-"

"I said I wasn't going to sleep with you. I meant that." I interrupted.

"Dont be a child"

"Dont be a man whore. I know even now you are sleeping with them. I can smell them on you. Don't think just because I am not royalty by blood I can't smell them on you. And that I can't smell you on them. As long as you continue to sleep with them, you will never sleep with me."

He glared at me before picking me up and continuing on the walk back.

I swear it by the moon goddess, I won't go back on my word.
