Prince Reagan

Chapter 9

Gifts From A Prince

i gulped down my sait as my father steps aside for

the powerful male to walk in. His pose depicts arrogance,

and his aura demands submission. I can feel my palms begin to sweat and my forehead too. My stomach churns, and I feel like throwing up the little sandwich I ate a while ago.

Reagan’s face has an expressionless mask on, making it hard for anyone to read him. But when his eyes move to

mine, I can see the twinkle in then, Like he has caught me

doing something naughty I’m not supposed to. I don’t know

if I should be scared or start to beg for forgiveness.

Adrian comes in behind His Highness, his face the same

stoic form. And I wonder how they got to know I’m here. Lexi

couldn’t have told him as she doesn’t even know either. Or

was this a mere coincidence? Had he planned to visit my

parents all along and we just happened to bump into each

other out of sheer misfortune?

Either way, I decide to stand firm and not show any sign of fear. I haven’t done anything wrong by visiting my parents. I’m not his prisoner, so he can’t question me for this act.

‘W…Welcome, Your Majesty:” My mum stutters beside

me while my dad closes the front door.

“Please, have a seat, you two.” She motions to the

couch we were cuddling on only a few seconds ago. I do not Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Clad in a white shirt and black, parit, he looks even

are beautiful.

His boot stops right in front of my sandals, almast

touching and his eyes bore into mine. Not wanting to back

way like a scared little pup. I look right back up at him, not feeling the urge to submit like an average werewolf to a Lycan. His smile broadens, noticing my defiance, and his heedc” “s to study me. The air around us is thick, and I can

hear my parents’ shuffling on their feet due to nervousness.

My Eyes divert to my parents’ behind him, and I’mn met

with their stern disappointed looks. They don’t like my show

of disrespect and expect me to submit right away. I

reluctantly oblige and bare my neck in submission, gritting my teeth in the process as I look to the floor.

I feel his hand come up to brush my hair away from my

neck before he caresses his lovebite with his thumb. Azap of

electricity shoots from that spot through my whole body.

and i feel my toes curl into my sandals. I look up to see a knowing smirk on his face, probably sure of what he had

done to me. But I’m left to look back down and leave my

neck bare open.

I hate this. I hate that I’m weaker and not being able to

stand up for myself, just like how I was when Brad rejected

me sa brutally. Now, I’m at the mercy of this best to do

whatever he wants

He moves way after a final strake of my hair he’s

petting me for submitting to him like a bad dee. Then he

slides to my vide, wraps an arm around my waist to smash

me to his side as he faces my parents. I can ve my dad’s jaw clench at Reagan’s public show of ownership, but his hands

are left tied.

“I’m sorry we couldn’t have a proper introduction

yesterday. I was in a hurry to take my mate way.” He flashes

his pearly white teeth are my parents in a breathtaking grin.

My farm is stiff beside him with his possessive arm around

my waist as he takes a whill from my hair.

“But now that we’re all here. I’m sure we can talk for the

few minutes my mate and I have here.” My eyes ship to me

but his eyes don’t meet mine

Afew minutes.

In a few minutes, he is going to take me away from them

even though I don’t want to leave just yet.

“Y..your Majesty, I’m sure_.” My dad starts, but Reagan

cuts him off with a polite smile.

“Please, call me Reagan. We will be family as soon as I

mark your daughter.” Ashiver runs down my spine as his words remind me of my fate. Even my dad halts to digest his words. They sounded so foreign to him.

“Thank you. Your Malesty. But we think we’ll stick with

the formalities because of your title.” My dad speaks for both

him and my mum. If it venenath waewolf, they would have jumped at the offer of calling a royal by his name. But

net my parents. They were too humble for that

Reagan shrugs in response without saying anything Grily crushing me further into his chest.

“Please, have a seat.” My dad once more motions to the couch. He doesn‘t even try to smile, showing how unhappy he is about the whole situation.

“Asind, we won’t take lang. So we’ll just hurry and then get on our way, Mr. Archer.” Reagan informs with a smile

meant to lack polite on his face. I can sense it’s a facade,

though. There is a hint of anger under it and I know I’m the

cause of it. His arm tightening around my waist is like a

reminder that he would get back to me once he’s done with

mny parents.

“Okay, then. If that’s what you wish.” My dad lets out a

light caugh to reduce the tension in the air..

“As you know, I am a Prince.” Reagan points out,

“Second Prince might I add. Meaning your daughter will be a

Princess once marked by me. She will be treated with the

utmost care and adored Like the queen she is. I will provide

for all her needs as a good mate should, and she will never

lack or have any reason to shed a single tear because of me.

Ali jift to her parents, which you are, you can

will see to it that it is done. Be it silver, gold, diamondi, or

even a whole pack under you.”

It’s not unusual for the male werewolf to make

promises to his mate’s parents. It’s a tradition all werewolve

and beasts alike follow. Some give houses, some pwy in

cash, and some even lands. li’s a way the male assures the

she-wolves parents that he can fully take care of her as he’s

capable.

“That’s mighty generous of you, Your Highness.” My mum comments with her mouth agape. Even my dad has a

look of astonishment on his face.

A whole pack beine gifted to him? That would make

him an Alpha and my mum a Luna!

“Nonsense. You’re the parents of a future princess. You

deserve the better.” He dismisses with a wave of his hand,

“Now, moving on, Hll be gifting you both a plane ticket

to spend the whole of next month in Hawaii. I heard it’s your

anniversary, and I would love for you to celebrate it joyously,

Accommodation and everything else you need will be taken Care of, and all you need is to relax. Also, you both don’t

have to work as medical assistants in the packhouse. A

hospital will be built for you both to own and manage,

employees will be provided and all the necessary equipment

you need. If you want it to be for werewolves and humans

alike that’s your decision to make. If you need anything else,

. Hell be coming to collectie

in a

week.” He matians to Adrian, standing quietly in the corner

All this while, my parents are staring at himn wide

and mouth agape, and so am I. He’s talking all about it like it

wouldn’t cost him a thing when in reality, it’s too much. He’s

eiving them so much and still saying they could ask for more? My dad and mum work for the pack, both as nurses. And mov, Reagan is telling them they don’t have to take orders but give them when treating victims. I know he’s a Prince and all that, but isn’t this all a bit too much?

“T…thank you, your Majesty. My mate and I can’t express

our shock and gratitude at your generosity.” My dad finally speaks up after a while, with the shock look still registered

on their faces. Reagan answers with a smile while still

holding me tight against him.

“But, I’m sorry we would have to reluse all this.” My dad

announces after sharing a look with my mum, and she also

nods in agreement.

Are they nuts?! I know they’re humble and all that shit;

but this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. And they’re

throwing it away for what?! I blink my eyes rapidly at them as

I take in their determined pose. Even mum is with him on

this. Reagan lifts an eyebrow at them in question as my dad

takes a step closer.

House, car daughter’s happiness is the only thing we’re iter. We’re content with our humble y le and

dan’t wish to change it. We only ask that you let Ellie some

space. My other’s strong volce wavers at the ending as

Heagan’s the turns out at his request.

“Yes, Yeur Highness.” My mum moves forward ta

support dad. “We just found out Ellie’s first mate had rejected her and mated another in front of her without thinking about what she would feel once. I can’t imagine the kind of suffering she must have gone through all this time

and to think we didn’t know anything about it. So please. I

doubt she is fully recovered as it only happened last year….”

“Havelmarked her yet, Mrs. Archer+ Reagan’s icy tane

sends chills down everyone’s spine, making my mum kaltin

her speech. His expressionless mask is off and I can see how

pissed he is at my parents’ sugeestion. His eyes heavy-lidded

as he glowers down at them while pressing me further into

his side. At this point, I don’t think he can pull me anymore

closer. His grip is firm but at the same time, soft.

When he doesn’t say anything more, it’s clear he’s

waiting for an answer from my mum. From my scent and the

fact I’m here and not in his bedroom pleasing him like a good newly mated, It’s evident I’m still unmarked.

“No, your Majesty.” My mum answers with a strong

volce.

“We may not be the same, but I’m sure you know a lot

about our kind not making current, the fina nt w w hat is almost unendol, We’re not in your kind of

I do not understand what other Linds of space she needs, bull doubt I can gheher more than that. And I won’t be very lenient with someone else restraining me from my mate, na matter who they are.” His vaice takes a dangerous tone at the end, and the sitting room is filled with silence after he’s

done.

i frown at his threat and look up to glare right w him. I’m touched my parents care forme so much, ready to sacrifice anything for me. But I hate that Rexam is blatantly

refusing them and even threatening them all because of me.

I squirm in his am, wanting to get away from his burning

body. But he looks right down at me with a warning in his

eyes as he strengths his hold on me. He glares back at my parents while I keep my buming stare on him.

“It’s understandable if you don’t want my other gilts,

but plexo accept the trip to Hawaii. If you’ll both excuse u! now, we’ll be on our way.” He announces in an authoritative

tone, leaving no room for adversaries.

My mum looks to me with guilt in her eyes, sadness in

her face because she can’t help me. My dad’s face also is

crestfallen as he nods to Reagan. I hate seeing the look of

defeat on their tace, le male my heart tug painfully in my that I addenly have this strong urge to punch apan for

doing this in them.

“Alaselt msw goodbye properly to them.” i rutart to Reagan she begins to drag metowards the front door. My eyes filled with anger as I pull away from him with force

and rush to hug my mum goodbye. I soon feel my father’s

divert to my parents’ house.

After being kissed on my cheek one last time by my

mum. I reluctantly move to where Reagan stood after grabbing my duffel bag. I don’t even stare at him as atormi

past him in rage before reaching for the front door. I notice

the sleek black sports car in our driveway and immediately

know who it belongs to. I can hear Reagan’s footsteps

behind me as we both make way to the vehicle. I reach for

the backdear, but aband bohind me abrupily slams it huli turn to see Reagan’. angry blazing pesen me, but I don’t Cower in tear: İnstead, i mit his late head-on the leans down, and I feel his minty breath on my cheek.

“Passenger’s seat. Now!” He orders in a low prowl, but I don’t oblige right way. I glare at him for a few more seconds

with his hand still on the door before doing as told.

He walks over to the driver’s side while Adrian takes the

back seat. The car is filled with silent as he starts up the

engine and pulls out of the driveway. My eyes are focused outside the window by my side, and my parents on the front porch, looking longingly at the retreating vehicle. My

Eyes turn blurry, and I suddenly feel museous and

homesick.

i reluse to acknowledge Reagan bevde me the whole

drive to his penthouse. Neither does he wyör do anything?

But I can feel the waves of anger rolling off of him as he

keeps on driving. Adrian is an emotionless statue at the back,

almost invisible. But I’d rather stay with him there than be

out front with an angry Prince. I keep shifting nervously in

my seat, uncomfortable by his silence. From the corner of my

eyes, I can see his knuckles turn white as he grips the

steering wheel tight

Outwardly, he looks very composed even as he

dreading our discussion. I can see his muscles from the back

are taut and rigid, flexing as he walls further into the sitting

room. He stops when he notices me lacking behind and

lumns to face me with an eyebrow tilted upward. I shrug in

answer before moving to sit on the large sofa. I would prefer here than going upstairs to his room with him..

“Fine then. Let’s talk here, shall we? You said you

wanted to go to school, and I allowed it on the terms you

come home right away when you’re done from school. Then

I got a phone call from my guys telling me you left to the

woods and shifted into your wolf before running home” He

märrates calmly while moving to stand in front of me.

“So that’s how you knew where I was.” I chuckle with no amusement. “What am I now? Your property that can’t go

anywhere without your permission and that you have

stalked?” I glare up at him as I slowly stand up.

His face darkens even the more as he takes a step

towards me.

“I went to go meet my parents. How is that bad? Do you plan on locking me here in this damn place and letting me

out only when you deem fit7 I’m my own self. I can do

whatever the hell wanti” Newer in my wildest dreams hadi thought I would be yelling back at Lycan Prince with so

much disrespect

His jaw clunches as he prabs my elbow and yariks me closer to him. We’re chest to chest as he flowers down at me

“You might be your own damn person before at night,

but not anymore. You’re my own dari person now. I really

do wish I can lock you up in my room and chain you to my

bed. But sadly, that’s barbaric in the twenty-first century.” He

sighs like he really isn’t happy with that..

“Yes, you can go and do whatever the f*k you want,

but not while you’re still wrimarked by me. My beast won’t

allow it.” His face is closer le fine now and his breath is

fanning my cheeks. We stare at each other long enough, our

breaths aged like we just ran a marathon

He licks his lips as he nods with a smile. “You want to go

wherever you want, right?” A malicious grin makes it’s way to

his lips, and I shiver at how dangerous he suddenly looks.

His hand comes up to grip the mape of my neck before

burying his fingers into my hair. He bares my neck open from

him as his eyes begin to glow a bright gold.

“Alright then, my love. Let’s start the mating process,

shall we?”
