Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 16

#Chapter 16 You don’t know me?

“You stupid lying asshole.” Waylon growled in William’s mind. “Turn around and claim our mate before I—“

“We aren’t meant to have mates. It’s our damned fate as a royal member, remember?” William cut off his wolf before the threats poured in.

Of course, Waylon knew exactly why William was pushing away their mate.

William’s birth mother was the Alpha king’s one and only fated mate and king Charles loved her with every fiber of his being. It almost killed his father when she died just months after she’d given birth to William.

In the Golden Palace, true love meant nothing. Power was the only thing that mattered which meant the king never did get revenge for his mate. All he was left with was the scars from not being able to protect her. William did not want to become weak like his father because of a mate. He refused. William simply pushed out the images of her brown eyes and forced away the electric feeling he had whenever he was near her.

“I just wonder if we might be lucky with ours, you know.” Waylon said quietly, William didn’t respond.
