Adam's POV

"I told you I will be leaving my office in 4 hours. Now you have given me work that will take 2 hours. I promised Dawn that I would meet with her at the hospital."What is wrong with people. I always keep my promises, although people don't seem to do the same. She left right after I got occupied with work, phone calls, and continuous emails. Even she had some work of her own to do.

I guess she was also lost at the moment. I wanted to take her to my mother, I want her to stay by my side, fight alongside me. I don't know if she is gonna throw me under the truck like everyone else.

I had finished hours of paperwork and right when I am done, they give me more. I assigned all the leftover work to my assistant; Ben.

"I was about to get in my car when someone yelled my name from behind."Alpha Adam, two guards have been found dead in the borders with more threats"Fuck this is getting out of hand, my people are getting killed, not just anyone. The freaking guards. That's it I am going today itself

"Prepare 7- 10 warriors, we are going North. Get everything ready by 6 pm" I got in the car and drove a bit too fast to Whitebridge hospital. I will away for at least a week. I don't plan to take her with me now. Even if I wanted to, with her sister s condition, her pack, I don't want to give her more trouble. Plus it is very dangerous, having security all over the kingdom they still managed to kill my people.

"Excuse me, where is uhmm--; what the fuck was her sister's name. Which room is Sitara, Alpha Dawn's sister admitted in?. This is Adam"

The woman gave me a bored expression until I said my name and she got a look at me. Here we go again"As is king Adam?. Here sir.Right, this way. Would you like any arrangements? We can make it happen if you want anything, "Why do you treat me like this, I can walk on my own.

"No thank you, which room ?".She seemed a bit disappointed and leaned in towards me, pressing her breasts against my shoulder, why do they feel like rocks? She literally hurting me. Ugh, fake...Let's see the name...Natalie, even her name sounds slutty "Room 738, if you don't mind me asking. How are you related to Alpha Dawn or her sister?" I am pretty sure she spit while saying Dawn's name.

"I am her mate. Alpha Dawn's mate "I didn't wait to see her reaction. I took the lift and reached her room in a few minutes.

I knocked on the door hesitantly thinking of what I would say to her, today morning I said I want her to come with me and now and now I have to say that she can't come. Stupid, Stupid, stupid, "Come in,"

I saw Dawn, still looking amazing as always in my clothes, "Hey Adam, this is my sister Sitara Hazel William, she hasn't woken up yet. My parents left in the morning. You are done with your work?"Her sister didn't look much like her. Dark brown hair, slender frame, tanned skin, and an unusually strong jaw.

"Yes, I am all done. Have u eaten lunch?. By the way, I will be going northern waters today itself, Two guards have been killed. I will try to reconcile with them. I will return in a week though. I will need your help while I am gone. The whole kingdom won't be in your hand, but you will have to take care of a few things. I have many assistants. I can't take u with me this time, I need to go immediately and I need an experienced well leader to take care of my kingdom"As she listened to all this, her lips thinned, forehead creased and dark eyebrows knitted together, she must be worried for her pack too.

"As Alpha of Blood Stone pack,it would be my honour to serve the kingdom. But as your .....mate,you need to bring a lot of warriors. Triple the number of warriors you were going to bring. If needed i can give you some of my pack warriors,people seem to underestimate a woman's strength. If you're leaving today,you must be so busy. I am sorry you had to drive all the way here."

I smiled, mate...I guess i have to listen to her. I won't loose anything bring more safety with me. I wanted to see her one last time before i went to the Northern Waters ,why would it be a burden. I guess i should get going,i do have a lot of things to take care of.

"Adam. I'll walk you out."We left the room and got in the lift.6th....5th...

She walked over and stood in front of me, her maroon eyes looked at me filled with worry and confusion. Her cheeks tinted a light shade of pink. Suddenly she leaned and pecked my lips, then immediately pulled away. Her lips are like velvet soft like petals of a rose.

"Uh--Ada-m I am so.sorry.-it w-as a refl-ex."What the fuck just happened ?. Wait where is she ?!

Fuck she got out . HORRIBLE LIFT was it her ,or the fact that i am her mate?. I hope it was the first one ,probably not . What good reason does she have to care about me .

-I was awful to her when we met

-I acted arrogant throughout the Ball to her

-I wouldn't let her drive my car

-She would think i don't trust her since i haven't told anything about my self to her

-She is a person who hates men and hates me because I am her mate; I being king, she will have to be queen. I literally putting her in between two giant rocks and telling her to somehow get out on her own .

On top of that, I didn't kiss her back, I didn't feel like I had the right to, even though I am her mate.

*You fucking moron.*Thanks Liam, that helps. Why did I enjoy it?. Even if it was just for a split second, Why, I barely know this girl . I have kissed loads of women , in my pathetic, useless days I used women as a distraction, they meant nothing to me . Just meaningless .So how is Dawn different from any of those women . Why is she making me feel like this?

My fist immediately made contact with the mirror multiplying it into hundreds of pieces ,i didn't even feel the pain of the sharp shards of glass on my knuckles since I was too angry with myself.

*Yea punch the mirror ,that'll change time *LIAAMMMMM!shut up . Okay i have come up ith a plan .So far the only I have from her is that she is the reason I am a king but if I need to get the whole power where I get to command and dominate people, I need my mate.

That's the wolf law, mates are very important, they give you twice as much strength as you have. Plus if I don't give the kingdom a successor within 3 years, there is a chance that without a child of my own my subjects won't want me as king since they would be concerned that the kingdom might fall into the wrong hands.

I can't let myself be distracted by her though like my father always said"never rely on trust Adam, that's not gonna get you anywhere, make sure people know your power, if you want them to obey you, you need them to fear you "He was right, Fear is the only way . Dawn shouldn't be an obstacle in front of me.

Does she still think that can be still be king?. I'll just have to make sure that she understands that she doesn't stand a chance against me. She is a very cunning woman, someone you wouldn't want to gamble with or play dirty with.

But I am gonna take the risk, I need to show her who has the authority here and she clearly mistakes thinking that I am just gonna let her disobey me. My dad is a wise man , he wouldn't say that without any reason, he has much more experience than me and I am gonna trust his judgment.
