Chapter 16

It’s been 2 days since the incident.

Titus, with a flat and cold face, different from his previous expression, walked out of my room with a smile that I knew was very forced.

“Ghosts and their jokes” He exclaimed flatly before k*ssing my cheek “Get some rest” and leaving.

I wanted to ask, but I knew it wasn’t the right time.

‘He, who has no heart, does not deserve to have a mate… Once… We killed his mate and now we can do it again…. What happened?

He used to have a mate?!

I never heard the story that he had a mate.

A mate can only be had by a werewolf once, if it’s true that he had one, how come I’m now his mate?

Where did the previous mate go?

What is truly happening?

For the past 2 days I’ve been going through the library, trying to find anything written about it, but I couldn’t find anything.

I wanted to ask, but I knew that no one would answer me.

Ugh…. I’m confused!!!

Letting out a long sigh, I put the book on top of the pile of other books I had picked up and there was nothing there.

Staring outside I stood up and picked up the books before starting to return them to their original place so that no one would find out what I wanted to know from the books.

I think that’s enough for today, I thought and started walking out of the library.

Staring at the door on the side that was Titus’ study, I stopped to stare at it before turning around and thinking to look around the other rooms that I hadn’t explored yet.

I notice Alexa and El follow behind without saying anything, I truly want to ask them but I know better that they have no answer about it too.

I walked around the gorgeous castle in no hurry, looking at the watch to see it’s 5PM and I have time before dinner to see

around.

After walking down a long narrow hallway I arrived in the staircase, my curious peak and started to ascend the staircase. I know Alexa or El will stop me if it’s forbidden but they didn’t say anything and just following means it’s okay for me to go further.

I reached the top and saw a long hallway with many doors and a beautiful antique chandelier. Something caught my eye to see a grand piano at the back of the room.

Being the only daughter in the family, my mother used to love to play and taught me how.

My feet took me closer and before I could think I sat on the bench to start touching it.

“Can you play it, my queen?” I heard Alexa ask and I answered her by triling softly over the key to play canon D, glad that my finger still remembered how to play the piano.

It was my mother’s favorite song and she always plays it first before other songs.

Can’t help but smile when I remembered everything I used to do with my mother before I changed.

Broken heart broke me, too afraid to hurt my mother too if I said anything, I never told anyone about the rejection and started to stay away from my family.

The sound of the door opening broke me out of my reverie

and my breath caught in my throat as I froze meeting a pair of eyes staring closely to my direction.

Slowly, Titus walked to where I sat and stopped in front me who quickly stood up from the seat.

Titus was staring at me like he just found me.

He’s staring at me with the looks that I never get before.

I felt my heart stop when I heard the words that I had been dreaming about all my life.

“Gwen… My mate… Mine!”

– Rolf Titus (The King) POV –

“You need to give her an explanation” My Beta, Drake, one of the few people who knew my dark past, made a suggestion since I told him about the incident two nights ago in Gwen’s room with Pearl’s apparition in front of us.

“I know” I breath

I’m a coward if it’s involving my mate.

I could kill bad guys and rip them apart in a blink of an eye but I don’t know what to do if it’s my mate.

D*mn it!!

“It’s been 5 years you follow her without her knowing after that night, I watch how you both hurting, my king, she’s smart, we’ll find a way” Drake continue, he knows he better to not knowing what to do if it’s for my mate, he hate how I st* pidity reject her in the first place even though he know the reason.

Drake’s fa**er was there 300 years ago when the gypsy killed my first mate because of jealousy.

He knows how I tried to kill myself in every war I l*d only to

be failed because I am immortal.

Yes, the curse that makes me unable to die.

The punishment they give to me so I could be miserable in my life watching people I love leaving me.

Finding Gwen is like a miracle..

Never in my mind the Moon Goddess will give me a second chance.

‘So, why do you keep hurting her?’ My wolf snapped in my mind and I released a hard breath.

“Wolf, still angry?” Drake states when he turns his gaze to me to see a hard expression on my face.

I rolled my eyes and heard him chuckle.

“You should listen to him for once”

I sighed “You know I also couldn’t hold anymore.. I…” I pause when I hear a sound of piano echoing from upstairs.

“Looks like the queen finding your mother’s piano” Drake commented before opening the door, he knows I will go toward her now.

Noone ever has the guts or ability to play my mother’s piano, even though I order the ser**nt to keep it clean but this is the first I could hear it again.

‘GO TO MATE!!!’

Wolf demands almost make me lose control and without knowing I run faster to where the sound comes from.

Alexa and El widened their eyes when I arrived before bowing in respect.

Quickly I open the door with the sound which makes me curse myself for not opening it slowly.

Gwen’s shocked expression met my eyes.

How come she’s more beautiful everytime I see her.

‘MATE.. MATE!!!!’

This time I can’t hold it anymore.

Yes… You’re right Wolf, I whisper softly to my Wolf.

She is the one.

Mate… Our mate.

“Gwen.. My mate.. Mine”
