I was sure the worst thing to ever happen to me would be being kidnapped, and sure, that was pretty bad. However, what was worse was being kidnapped, held captive for years, and then being auctioned off to the highest bidder. I thought maybe I had caught a little break when I found out that me and five other girls were being sold to royalty, but I should have known something about that wasn't right either. Under the cover of eternal darkness, and deep beneath the ground, was a whole world I never even dreamed existed in my wildest dreams. It was a world that promised to be more than anything I could imagine. The people who bought us told us we would have the luxurious life of a princess, but there were only two catches... 1. We would be competing against each other for the affection of the Prince who would change our whole lives by picking one of us to rule at his side. 2. That prince just happened to be a vampire.

I woke up to sunlight streaming in through the windows. I tried to move only to wince in pain. I was sore down there from last night. I smiled thinking about last night, it was perfect. I looked over at Hunter who was still asleep. I sat up, with little protest from down there and got up to get dressed. As I was getting out of bed Hunter groaned next to me. "Morning." I said as I was slipping my undergarments on. "Morning." He said a little distressed. "Wait did we..." he trailed off. I was a little confused. "Yeah we did, whats the issue?" "Fuck" He groaned while he flopped back down on the bed, rubbing his hands over his face. "What?" I was starting to get concerned. "This wasn't supposed to happen. This was a mistake." He said, sitting up again. "Why was this a mistake?" I said, upset that he called us a mistake. "I didn't want to meet you yet, I want to be free not tied down by some mate. I mean you were a good one night stand. I just don't think you would be a good Luna." My heart broke when he said that. "You're not pretty enough, just some scum that was lucky enough to be able to sleep with me last night." My heart officially shattered into a million pieces. I started to get teary, but I didn't want to cry. But his next words broke the dam holding my tears in. "I, future Alpha Hunter Black, reject you, Ashlynn King, to be mate and future Luna." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashlynn has been dreaming of her mate, but what happens when he decides that she isn't good enough for him?
