I woke up to the sunlight flowing into the room. Where was I? Oh shit, I overslept! Darren is going to kill me! I jumped up before looking at my surroundings, this wasn't the pack house, and not my room for sure, so where was I? Was I kidnaped? I look down to see a stranger sleeping beside me, who is he? Is he going to hurt me? I need a way out quickly, before he wakes up. I took a deep breath only to smell lavender and vanilla, a weird combination but it smelled so good! Plus it is my two favourite smells in the whole world mixed together. I looked down again, he was the source of the smell. Just then, I realised that he was looking at me, when did he wake up?

"Calm down, angel, you are safe here, no one will dare hurt you with me around," He told me soothingly. Wait? How did he know my name?

"H-how d-do y-you know- my name..?" I ask him, feeling an anxiety attack coming.

"What do you mean, is angel your name? Mine is Mason, I'm sorry I scared you, I didn't know, would you tell me what happened to you?" He asked me in a gentle voice and started to rub my back, as if silently comforting me. I felt the anxiety attack fade away as he continued to rub my back.

"My name is An-angelina, bu-but my family used to call me angel," I said softly stammering a little, backing away as far as possible, expecting him to hit me any minute.

"Your voice is like the sound of angels singing, do you know that?" He told me and I quickly looked away, no one ever told me that, I was used to people screaming and insulting me, I couldn't remember when was the last time I got complimented for something.

"Wh-who are you?" I asked quietly, hoping that it would not make him mad, "And what d-do you wa-want to do to me?"

"I'm Mason, alpha of the midnight moon pack, also known as the Alpha king, and you, my angel, is my mate which in turn means you are going to be the luna of the midnight moon pack and the queen of all wolves," he replied to me softly, as if he was afraid that I would run away. It took me a while to process what he was saying but when I did I was shocked. Oh my god! Where is my respect! I better get down to show my respect, ugh, why didn't I notice! Now that I came to my sense I finally felt the powerful aura coming from him that could only possibly from the king. I hurriedly got on my knees and showed my neck in submission.

"Get up, you are my mate, we are of equal positions, you don't need to submit to me," he told me while helping me up. "Plus, you need rest as you are recovering." I lay back down in the bed, wait, my mate? I thought I didn't have a mate, this must be a mistake.

"This m-must be a mistake, I'm not your mate, I don't have a mate," I muttered softly, thoughts running through my head like a bullet train, I didn't want to hurt his feelings but I didn't want to pretend that I'm his mate when I'm clearly not, why would the moon goddess pair someone so powerful with someone as weak as I am, I couldn't even talk without stammering.

"Then, why do you smell so sweet, why do sparks explode wherever our skin touches, why do you make my wolf go crazy just by sight of you?" He asked me, it made sense, those were the mate effects that my mom used to talk about but I still can't believe it, everyone had always told me how I didn't have a mate, how I was going to die alone, that no one wants me.

Flashback (third person)

"Mommy, what is a mate?" A little girl asked, turning around to look at the older women.

"A mate, my sweet darling is someone who will love you, make you feel whole and fill all the missing holes in your heart. He would be the one who gives you the world, sparks will explode wherever he touches you, you would be his world and he would be yours. You can't live without him just like how he wouldn't be able to live without you." The older woman looked down at her daughter, eyes full of admiration as she told her child all about mates, all the while thinking of her husband, the child's father.

"What are my two beautiful women talking about?" A male appeared hugging his wife from behind.

"Mates!" The young girl Angelina excitedly said, running towards her father, hugging his legs.

Back to the present

"Are you okay Angel?" I heard Mason ask me, concern lacing his voice. I touched my face only to feel water, was I crying?

"Yeah, I-I think so, I'm sorry I spaced off," I told him looking away.

"Let's get you something to eat, I don't want you to be hungry. What do you want?" He asked me while picking me up. Just then, I felt a tingle in my back, something like a spark. Maybe, just maybe it is true that he is my mate but why would he want me, I wouldn't have the strength to rule beside him, just like what Darren always said.

"What do you have?" I asked him quietly, still scared that he would get mad like Darren always does.

"Everything that you would want," he told me, smiling down at me like I was his world, I felt butterflies in my stomach, maybe this wouldn't be so bad, but I couldn't let my guard down. I couldn't risk falling in love only to get hurt when he tells me this was all a joke.

Then may I have a bowl of mac and cheese, please?" I asked timidly, he may be true about us being mates but there was still a chance he was going to hurt me, that he was lying about everything and this was all planned by Darren.

"A bowl of Mac and cheese it is," he said grinning and walking towards where I think the kitchen is.

When he reached I quickly scrambled out of his arms and proceeded inside to find the ingredients of Mac and cheese, I couldn't let the alpha king cook for me, it should be the other way around.

"Sweetheart, what are you doing?" He asked, a look of confusion plastered on his face before it dawned on him, he quickly picked me up again as if I weighed nothing and placed me onto one of the stools, "You are injured, you need to rest, I won't poison the food and I'm a pretty good cook if I do say so myself, so just sit where you are and look pretty while I prepare you some food."
