“You’re my second–chance mate. Dillion recognized you, so I know who you are. Why did you run away? Did you not realize what I am to you?” Terryfiying my mate was the least thing I wanted, but I had to raise my voice to attract her attention and stop her. Keeping up with her was a little bit hard. She’s such a good runner.

When I finally caught up to her, the scent of lilac overwhelmed me. I had caught a wisp of it the second I entered the ballroom. I tried to trace it, but unfortunately, I lost it soon since it wasn’t strong enough.

Then my Gemma and one of my best friends Gerald sniffed the air. When I looked at him the look on his face said it all. He had found his mate, and I wanted to be happy for them. I wanted my best friends to be happy. Still, I couldn’t help but feel a bit sad that he is the one to find his fated mate at an event hosted for me to find mine. He walked over to her not really saying much to us. If I were to find my mate I was not so sure I would be able to calmly explain to the others what was happening. Now that it was happening to Gerald I had to look away if only for a moment. Only for one second, I need that second to compose myself. To plaster another fake smile on my face. In a minute or so I would walk up to the girl and greet her. I would tell her she was most welcome in our pack. I would pretend like it was lovely meeting her even if my mind, heart, and soul were all just focused on my last desperate attempt to find HER.

“Poor Gerald, by the look of what I suspect is her father poor Gerald is messing shit up already.” Dillion chuckled earning him a chuckle from his mate. In turn, forcing me to look up and see what they were talking

about. And when I did, it was here. The moment I’d dreamed of since I was fourteen. Lilac flooded all my senses. I heared a giggle and it sounded like summer raining.

“Dillion, her friend, the short one. She is my mate.” I whispered more to myself than to Dillion even if I just addressed him.

Finally having my dreams come true felt unreal. Moon Goddes, she worth the wait though. Even if she wasn’t my mate she stood out amongst the sea of almost desperate she–wolves. She was wearing a gold dress, not as cheap–looking or revealing as most of the others are wearing. It was alluring hugging all her curves, her fit body. She was on the short side which I never knew was so beautiful. I am a good eleven or twelve inches longer than she is. She will fit right into my arms, and I am already imagining falling asleep with her small frame all snuggled up

to me.

“I’ll be damned that’s firecracker.” Dillion muttered, successfully drawing my attention away from my stunning mate.

“Do you know her?” I asked him, forcing myself to look at him for a

second.

“Yes. She is the she–wolf attacked by five other wolves. Some of them were over there.” He said, pointing to a group of she–wolves that oozed desperation from their very pores.

It was all I needed to know to look back at her. At the exact same moment, she looked at me. Eye contact like I had always dreamed of, but what I never dreamed about was my mate taking off running. It was almost as if she was scared of me. I didn’t know what had happened to her before. Quite frankly, I did not care either. I didn’t care about the

guests, my parents, or the gossiping that happens. All that mattered to me now was stopping her, begging her to talk to me and to explain why she was running away from me.

My guards were closing in on her, and even some bystanders were about to intervene and stop her from running away. Panic took hold of me, ast much as I wanted to get to here. Imaging other wolves touching her was pissing me off. Imaging her getting ever more upset because she was. caught like a common criminal made me feel even more unsettled. It’s that same fear–that panic–that made me use my Alpha voice without even thinking about it. Ordering everyone in the room to let her go, to not stop her or touch her in any way. Perfect! This meant my parents. knew it all now. I never used my Alpha’s voice before. As far as I was concerned, an Alpha should only use that as a last resort.

Damn, my mate was fast. Up until now, I figured I was in good shape with how much I train but keeping up is hard. Let alone gain on her. I called after her, she faltered for a second, so I knew she heard me. Still, she kept up raining, going even faster before she came to a full stop in front of the founad had custom–made for my mother: Oh the irony in that, maybe I will tell her later. There were other things

more important things for me to focus on. Talk to her, show her that she did. not have to fear me. I slowed down, attempting to walk up to her casually. Before I could even reach her she spoke to me. Her voice was a sweet melody but her words were like an ice pick stabbing my heart.

“I am done running. I just didn’t want to be rejected in public again.”

Dillion mentioned something about her telling him she was rejected.

But it was the sadness in her voice that seemed about to break. The w her eyes were downcast, she was not even willing to make eye contact.

And my heart ached for my poor mate. The wolf rejecting her did me the biggest favor of my life. To do so, he clearly hurt my poor mate immensely and for that, I wanted to punish him,

“Why in the hell would I reject you when the Moon Goddess herself blessed me with you? Not to mention the fact that you are stunning, and an amazing runner. I come up to you because I am dying to learn every little detail about you.”

She looked up at me, tears filling her eyes. If it weren’t for her pretending to not be bothered, they would have streamed over her beautiful face already. Her face was littered with the most beautiful. freckles I had ever seen. To just lay under the moon, counting her freckles and kissing every single one

as I imprinted them on my brain to never forget them. It sounded like a dream come true. All I had to do first is show her how serious I was about not rejecting her. Only a fool would receive such a blessing from the Moon Goddess herself and reject it. Reject her. I got lost in my own thoughts making my way to her slowly. Unsure of what to tell her, of where to start. She took a tentative ⚫ step back and answered the question I didn’t need to answer.

“Because you are a Prince, the Crown Prince to be exact. Your mate will. eventually be the Queen. The Luna of all Luna’s. I’ve been told once before that I am unfit to be someone’s mate because one day he will be an Alpha. So I know I am even more unfit to be your mate. Besides, I don’t think it is possible for me to have a second–chance mate. My mate is not dead. He is very much alive planning to choose my tormentor as his Luna. This is all just a mistake because the MoonGoddes does make mistakes and she keeps on making them with me” She told me, looking deflated.

All I needed to do was show her I was not going to reject her. The

problem was that it just became painfull civious that this wouldn’t be an easy task.

“He was a fool. Just don’t make any declaims vet, okay? Give me a chance to get to know you. And let you get to know me, I’ll make it work with my parents. Your friends, the girl you came here with, she is my Gemma’s mate. You can stay here for a few days or weeks, as long as you want to give me a chance. Give us a chance, please “I almost whined as Conan wanted to take over, before holding my breath and waiting for her answer.
