My heart bore the weight of culpability because | wasn’t able to reciprocate the love and enthusiasm he was showing after what
happened that night. Everyone around me was trying their best to cheer me up but | wasn’t able to move on from the pain. It felt
like the pain had turned into an ugly scar that | would have to carry for a lifetime.
Prescott was trying his best to treat me like a Queen. | was living my dream life with my mate, his amazing pack members who
had be my friends, and my little sister.
He had sensed my fear for Avery so without even me having to say it, he had her move to our floor, the room next to ours, and
even appointed two guards outside her room. Owen had left without telling anyone anything and that was normal ording to
Alpha Mason as he told us that Owen never came or left with a warning.
| wondered what my mother would be doing right now. How she had lived so far amongst the enemies. | wanted to find her and
meet her but Prescott wanted us to be rational. He wanted us to avoid taking any irrational action which we might regretter.
My mate was trying his best to find the whereabouts of my mother. He was using the connections of his human world to try to
find the location of Dn’s coven. We had tried probing Beatrice but she didn’t know either.
Apparently, L was my cousin which was an ultimate shock for me when Prescott told me the truth he foundter from his
father. | was d to know that Prescott had gotten rid of her. It made sense why mymand didn’t work for her.
She was a hybrid and being a witch, she wasn’t obliged to obey me and had the perks of using telepathy.
“Hello, sunshine,” Prescott chirped, wrapping his arms around me from behind.
“You seem to be in a good mood,” | pointed out, turning in his embrace and kissing his lips. He was stunned to see me smiling
and kissing him but didn’t react to it. Instead, he started kissing me back passionately and | dangled my arms around his neck.
The enticing sparks twirled via the mate bond, coursing through my entire body. His soothing touch was healing the wounds on
my soul and I thanked the Goddess for blessing me with such a fated mate who loved me and cherished me more than | could
ever ask for.
| should have told him about our mate bond earlier, it would have saved both of us the heartache and suffering. | was so stu pid
to think that he would abandon me or use me if he ever found out the
truth.
After breaking the kiss, he pulled me away to make me look into his gray orbs. “I havee up with a n to find your Mom.”
“Really?” | squealed, not expecting him to find a way that soon.
“Yes, love. Do you remember the rogue we found and then, | convinced him to work for me?” He

asked, his eyes holding a hint of mischief.
“Ken?” | asked, remembering his small frame vaguely.
“Yes. He has informed that L is Dn’s mate and his rogue Alpha is invited to their crowning ceremony,” Prescott revealed
and a smirk formed on his lips. “Luckily, Ken is also going with his Alpha as he has been appointed as the new Beta after his
previous Beta got killed in an attack.”
“Will he try to find my mother?” | eagerly asked, the hope of having news of her awakened in my heart and it gave me purpose to
get back to my old self.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
My mate smiled and nodded his head. “I have sent him the picture of Beatrice since | didn’t have one of your mother and my
father told me that they both looked the same. It was impossible to tell them apart.
“Thank you,” my voice shook as my throat seized up.
“We''re going to go there, too, my love,” he winked, and an invisible burden dissipated from my chest.

The dream | had harbored for a lifetime wasing true and | couldn’t believe that Dn had finally epted me. Last night, he
took me on a date to one of the restaurants he owned. Not only that, he had nned the whole night and surprised me with the
most romantic proposal.
“You''re looking gorgeous,” Ste shed a smile at me. “The hottest bride in the history.”
| giggled, staring at my reflection in the mirror. | was going to be the Witch Queen tonight. Had my Mom been here, she
would be on the ninth cloud. It was her lifelong dream to see me be the Queen. The dream that she couldn’t fulfill for
herself.
My eyes glistened as | missed her. | rubbed the diamond of my ne to reach out to her but it didn’t tw inkle which meant that
she still didn’t have her crystal. | had gotten the news of her being held as a captive in the Silver w pack but | had anticipated
that Mom would be able to break free from there.
“I''m here for you, bestie.” Her arms folded around me in a tender hold. “I know that you’re missing your mother but don’t you
worry. After your coronation ceremony, Dn will rescue your mother for you.”
Ste was my mate’s sister and my only best friend. Without her help, | wouldn’t have been able to survive amongst the witches
as they despised the hybrids the most and called them impure breeds.
| had suffered a lot because of my identity. The coven didn’t ept me and my mate refused to acknowledge the mate bond
between us. Dn didn’t ept me untilst month when he asked me to go back to my old pack and pass the pack’s
information to him.
It was my only chance to prove my worth to him and thankfully, | hadpleted my task till | got kicked out of the pack. Poor
Prescott didn’t even know that he never loved me, it was my witch. powers whichpelled him to fall for me..

you.
“Let''s stop getting sendifiental or we will ruin our makeup on this big day,” she kissed my cheek. “I havee to take you there.”
“Dad wouldn’te to walk me down the aisle?” My voice broke as | concealed my pain. He loathed me. He hated my Mom, too,
because she gave me birth without his knowledge.
Ste shook her head, suppressing her lips hard. | forced a smile on my face and took her hand. “You''re a more deserving
person than him. After all, he never gave me the love and warmth of a father so why fake it in front of everyone?”
“Well, I''m honored and ttered to walk my Queen down the aisle,” she said excitedly and | dly took her hand. She covered
my head with the ck veil. Dn wanted a gothic vibe for our wedding day so instead of red, ck was our theme.
| was wearing a ck gown with goldence around the borders and a golden silk bow in the front. The sweetheart neckline of
the dress entuated my cleavage while the rest of the dress hugged my curves perfectly, making me look se xy and hot as my
mate preferred.
The pce in which our wedding and crowning ceremony was held was decorated with ck, golden, and red roses. | could
smell the fresh fragrance of roses as | descended the stairs alongside Ste.
Royalty seeped from the pce, it looked like a bride itself. The diamond chandelier was hanging in the middle of the hall and
beneath it, two adjoined thrones were situated. Dn stood there with
a smile on his face.
His eyes shed red as they skimmed over my dress. “You''re looking lovely, baby,” he whispered after taking my hand from
Ste and thanking her.
“Let''s begin the ceremony,” the first-inmand of the King announced, garnering everyone''s attention. He looked at me
indifferently, his eyes as cold as ever and | couldn’t believe that he was my father.
Dn chanted a foreign spell and a fire emerged in the middle. “Bring the sacrifice,” he demanded and a rogue was brought by
his men.
“Ken, have you met Cami or should | call her here?” My mate smirked and that was the moment | realized that Ken was going
to be the sacrifice for tonight’s asion..
