Alpha Princess's Possessive Mate

Chapter 23 - Mails From The Palace



I struggled to get out of Fang's hold like a fish wiggling inside a fisherman's net, he was probably smirking with devious thoughts running through his cheap mind right now. I tried kicking him with my only free legs, but he smoothly dodged all my hits.

"Let me go!", I shouted with anger but he just huffed laughing as if amused by every little nerve popping in my head. "You'll face consequences for messing with me!"

Fang laughed at my words, "Do you know how helpless you look right now princess, I am loving it to watch you struggle"

His words immediately made me stop with my childish exertions.

Watching me having given up he leaned closer, placing his forehead on the top of my head, "Don't roam around alone at night little one, it's dangerous. I wouldn't want anything to happen to this weak self of yours"

My teeth gritted, who is he calling weak?

With all the anger inside me, I hit him with the back of my head arduously. The sound of bone cracking resonated in the silence of the forest. Turning towards him, folding my arm proudly, it was my time to smirk at him, "I might be a naive Fang or probably kind, but I am not one thing - WEAK!"

Fang held his bleeding nose with a smoulder on his face, "I must admit, that pissed me a little. But what can I say, you make me want to own you all the more now"

How does he manage to outsmart everything said or done by me, his smile was starting to fill with obsession more than amusements.

"I am not a thing for you to own Fang. I think you should learn some good characteristics from Channing, it will help your tyrant personality!" I didn't even understand why I mentioned Channing as if he has become some kind of standard in my eyes.

Fang's eyes narrowed as if trying to read the already evident atmosphere, "Really, Channing is your epitome standard of good people now?"

My heart skipped a beat as the realization set onto it. There was an oddly different feeling I was having when Channing was mentioned. Was it because he helped me get through the case or the way he took care of me back in hospital as well as the court.

Maybe it was because his words were my strength when I was in prison, and maybe because he was one of the very people that I trusted to stand by me.

"Oh, the Princess fell in love?" Fang asked, a fake smile lingering on his sinful lips. But it would be foolish of me to assume he was not scheming anything behind those dark eyes.

"I am betrothed, Fang, those stupid emotions are insignificant for me. Just like this stupid conversation!" My lips should really stop offending every other devious person I meet.

It is better for me to get out of here, the more I stay around this guy all the more loss I will face. I didn't want to see how barbarous he could be behind that professionally staged smile of his.

I turned around to leave and he did not bother to stop me. His eyes were rather fixated on me and he looked more engrossed in his thoughts, I turned around twice to be cautious he didn't plan anything funny.

But as he was disappearing from my sight, the last glimpse I had of him was with an endearing smile. It would have looked charming to others but I knew he was scheming something, and that smile was a warning for his incoming evil plan.

Fang looked like a man you wouldn't want to cross, someone who really could make you disappear overnight. He was the true creature of darkness, the mischievous werewolf blood. Being in the palace I had seen lots of wrong people.

If I have the choice, I would never face Fang head-on, that would be like waving a red flag in front of the bull who loves to mess around before breaking you in half.

I came back turning into my wolf and this time not picking up the pace, my mobile was safely secured around my leg with the cloth piece. This was the best way to carry your clothes anywhere when going alone, something my trainer told me when I was just starting to embrace this gift of four legs.

When I reached back, Suzan was still sleeping sound, the sky was turning lighter as the sun was about to rise from behind the mountains. I went inside the house and got changed.

I checked my mobile and there were 2 mails and 15 missed calls from an unknown number, The King! I opened the first one -

'How are you dear, everyone misses you at the castle.

I hope everyone is treating you nicely in Winterwells, if you are finding it difficult to handle, come back to the castle with no hesitation.

Your mom is still angry, but all your siblings eagerly want to help you with the oncoming marriage.

I hope you remember that your husband-to-be will be here in a few months, if you fail by then just head back. Your father will take care of training you.

Stay safe.'

I laughed ridiculed by his fake care. He really didn't expect Me to finish the mission and was way too impatient about my marriage. After all, It was going to bring him immense wealth from that tiny Human kingdom where I was promised.

I checked the second one he had sent -

'Why were you at the court today? Don't you dare get a criminal record on you!

If you are stuck in something due to the use of some wrong ways, you can request my help dear. Of course, you know that I won't help a commoner, maybe if you asked as the princess I will.

Reply as soon as you see this mail or I am sending you brother there to keep track of you!"

Here he goes again, trying to turn me around. If my little brother was to come here everything would go haywire, as he would not leave a single leaf unturned in making me fail my mission. After reading these messages I was getting more fired up, I didn't plan on wasting my time anyway.

I hit the reply button and started typing -

'I am alright King, I was just present there as a testimonial. I am fairly taking care of myself and do not wish to return without finishing my mission.

Let your blessing be with me so when we meet next I would have fulfilled my promise properly.

Take care, I hope everyone stays happy'

I rechecked the text and then sent it, plugged in my mobile for charging and stepped inside the bathroom for a fresh shower.

The sun was rising making the sky lighter, it would be useless to go and sleep now.

5 minutes into the shower my mobile started ringing, I ignored it and continued bathing. It stopped ringing and then rang again.

I got out, wrapped in my towel to check who it was, it showed an unknown number. I picked up the call and waited for the other person to talk first.

"Selene! Where are you guys? Everyone has been searching for you everywhere!" I could tell it was Channing, he sounded pretty pissed.

"We are at my home...", I replied in a low voice, getting aware of the fact that we hadn't informed anyone.

Before I could finish he thundered, "do you not understand that you should at least inform! Where is Suzan? Give her the cell!"

"Yes", I mumbled, totally cowed by his tone. I never expected someone as childish and fun as him to be this strict!

I ran outside not bothering my towel and Suzan was still sleeping sound on the deck. I tried to wake her up, shaking her, "Suzan! There is a call for you."

"Five minutes more", she turned to the other side, covering her face.

"Suzan, get up! The call is from-", I tried to wake her up again but she clicked her tongue irritated.

"Turn the lights off!" She grunted and I was totally panicking on how to say this to the fire-breathing dragon on the call.

I gulped and whispered on the phone, "Channing, I can't wake her up!"

"CHANNING!" Suzan woke up in an instance hearing his name and pulled the mobile out of my hand, she was pretty nervous talking, "he-he-hello, Channing! I'm up! I'm up!"

I couldn't hear what he was saying but she was already sweating and panicked, "Yes, I'm sorry Alpha!"

She kept shaking her head to whatever Channing was scolding. She decided to address him as Alpha which already made me nervous about what he was screaming at her.

"I'll reach them immediately Alpha, sorry for the trouble!" She said and cut the call.

"What happened?", I asked concerned, "did he shout?"

She shook her head still nervous, "He never shouts Selene! That is what makes us nervous every time we make mistakes!" She started typing some numbers on my mobile.

I creased my brows, "mistake?"

"The entire pack is searching for us! No one knows about your house except me!" She said and called someone.

She waited for some time and then talked, "Arina! It's me, Suzan! We are so sorry, yesterday Selene was injured so we came to her place and I fell asleep."

She nodded blankly at whatever Arina was saying.

"I'm so sorry.....yes extremely sorry....I'll make up to everyone....yes, yes I'm sorry!" She was looking very guilty and then she calmed down replying, "yes Selene is alright now!"

She looked at me and then replied on the call, "she is getting ready, we will be there in an hour...No, No it is not inhabitable here, there is no place for everyone to fit in here!"

She closed her eyes suddenly as if someone screamed in her ear and handed the mobile back to me, "Arina"

I took it and a soft voice came from that end, "Selene how are you? Are your injuries too big?"

"I'm fine now, recovering. And I'm really sorry for not informing you yesterday-" I said apologetically but before I could finish she interrupted me.

"I'm glad you are fine, text me your address, we'll be there," Arina replied and cut the call without waiting for my reply.

"Eh...hello?", I talked to the blank beeps. Sighing, texted her the location.
