The Alpha King's Mate

CHAPTER 42

Camryn's POV

Since the day my parents died, no one had ever cared for me. No one had loved me. No one dared to even be my friend, no one to talk to, no one to lean to when I feel down and broken.

The only one I have was my wolf.

I am used to just being with my wolf.

No attention, nowhere to be important with no one who understands.

But now, sitting here with my mate and his parents, having dinner with them like I'm part of their family. Feels foreign to me. They are a picture of a perfect family, so beautiful to look at until it hurts for me. It hurts for me to know that I don't have a family like this.

That I will never get to have a family like this.

But that was all in my mind. It had been tattoed in my mind, thinking that I will be forever broken and alone.

I had thought wrong.

I had never imagined that this day would come. That someone would ever appreciate me, care for me, and understand me.

And that's because of my mate.

Never in my wildest dream that someone would easily accept me and love me.

Hearing from his parents that I was now part of their family, that I am now their daughter, my heart filled with so much joy. The feeling that course through my heart was overwhelming and I can't hardly believe that this was happening to me. I was speechless and I didn't know what to say.

And for them to even want me to introduce them as their son's mate and the Luna Queen of werewolves was too much for me. This is happening so fast!

This was all too good to be true!

But then I am not dreaming.

I just can't put my brain into all of this.

And then mentioning my family and pack, I felt suddenly sad and disappointed.

But my heart was filled with hope. They had shown me kindness and sincerity. And to repay their goodness, they need to know the truth about my family and the truth behind who I am and all the terrible things that happen to me. I need to tell them all about my life.

I gathered all the courage in me and began telling them about the story of my family and pack.

It hurts to recall the painful memories of my past. Sharing it with them, opening my life as a book infront of them, with my mate beside me. My heart feels so heavy looking at their faces while listening to me. I feel like I can't continue telling it all to them but my wolf cheered for me, giving me the strength to go on and finish what I have started.

And so, I take it all out.

Once I had done telling all about my life, it left me breathless. My heart pounds loudly. I feel nervous and scared.

I am scared. Now that they know what terrible of a shewolf I am, they might not want me anymore to be part of their family.

I look at his parents. Their eyes held anger and sadness.

Then I turn to look at my mate. I felt his fury, his hands fisted at the table with his eyes filled with anger.

Then silence filled the room.

'I know this will happen. They will not accept me after knowing what kind of shewolf I am.'

I lowered my head defeatedly. I clutched my hands tightly down my lap and bit my lip to stop myself not to cry.
