Chapter 15: Facing the Lycan king

Nehora walked through the hallway led by a maid once again since she didn't know where his office was. She wore a flowered covered white dress with long, transparent sleeves.

Nehora was going to Alaric's office to discuss with him about the lab matter. It took a while to reach there, and the office was near the throne room so it would be maybe easier to find the office since the throne room was known to everyone.

As she was now standing at the door, her heart was accelerating, pumping in her chest as she felt through their matebond that he was in the office. It made her feel uncomfortable and nervous for some reason, but knocked on the door anyway, putting her cold demeanor to mask her feeling.

"Come in."

A mellifluous, masculine voice was finally answered as Nehora opened, only to end up seeing Adelda, standing beside Alaric who was busy doing paperwork on his desk. Nehora's eyes narrowed seeing her in his office before they became cold.

' Hmmm, she must have came, knowing l will come the next day to talk about what they did... but it seems she has other motives by how she pretends to not know we are mates. Disgusting.' Nehora thought while looking at the pair with emotionless eyes.

"Good morning your highness, l have came here to discuss with you about some matter related to my subordinate." Nehora uttered with a respectful tone, even though they are mates, they don't act like one.

Alaric stopped doing his paperwork as he looked up at Nehora who stood not far from his desk and said with a cold tone," What matter do you speak of?"

"As you may know, l have a team of scientists who came here to introduce tech suits and since you all agreed to have them(tech suits) used in the upcoming war. I like for you to allow the scientist team to have access to the lab if it is available so they can produce more tech suits for our troops." after Nehora said that she looked at Alaric waiting for the answer.

" l apologize, l haven't thought about that. You may have the team to use the lab in the training facility." Alaric said with a apologetic look.

" I thank you, your highness. Oh! l would like to talk about another matter also and l want to make it clear." she uttered in cold tone and glared at the pair with fierce eyes.

" If you ever fuck this b*tch again, l will make sure you never f*ck her ever again or any girl, you hear me! As you will never be able to!" she said with eyes filled with killing intent.

The pair looked baffled by Nehora's words before Adelda with crocodile tears in her eyes, she stared at Alaric," Alaric, by her words, does it mean she is your mate? Since when?" she uttered in an upset tone, crying.

" Yes she is my mate, but l don't love her as much as l love you Adelda so don't cry." he uttered with a sorrowful tone. He stood up and hugged Adelda in front of Nehora and he had a nerve to even glare at her. Adelda pushed him away, just to create more drama and to seem she was affected by this 'discovery' and went to door, but before doing that she pushed Nehora by the shoulder, opening the door behind her.

Alaric ran after Adelda, leaving Nehora all alone in the office.' *Growls* he has a nerve to run after that woman.' Hestia said in anger.

Nehora just sighed, going out the office and going to the training facility.

Closing the door, she noticed Mark coming her way, wearing a vest with some pants. " Oh, good mor-" Mark stopped uprupily as he was about finish saying his greeting. Nehora turned around, ignoring him, walking away.

"Eh!" Mark uttered as Nehora walked away not caring.

' That's weird.' he thought and opening the door of the office, but found no one. He closed the door and looked at the direction where Nehora was at before, but found no trace of her in the hallway leaving him wondering.

' Why was she here in the first place?' he asked himself but shrugged it off before going to train along with the other betas. He will talk to Alaric some other time.

Nehora wore her sport attire before coming to the training room.

Nehora was training intensively in the provided room. She put all her frustration in this training, destroying the room's walls.

The room was clean and fixed before she came here, it seems they were used to fixing a room which destroyed, so she increased the level of her powers alittle, this time.

She stopped and sat down with her butt on the floor. She was breathing heavily, sweating

' Why didn't l simply find my mate like my parents? This is just so annoying and that dream that l had of my mom while l was young, happy...' Nehora thought sadly, closing her eyes.

She opened her eyes,' Fate is unpredictable at times, it may be good or bad. It's like gambling so l think we should just give him a chance, Rosa. Even if it ends up badly or maybe good... that depends on fate. That dream was a sign, perhaps. We should maybe give this mate thing a chance.' Hestia said in a calm manner.

Nehora gave it a thought for a moment," Yeah, you are right. If it ends badly, it's okay and if it ends happily then that's good." Nehora said with a determined expression.

Nehora stood up, clutching her hand into a fist. She walked out of the room, to go wash herself.

The troops were training by running around this huge ground and even if a werewolf or Lycan never gets tired for a long period of time unlike humans, but this field was meant for their kind, making them to reach their limits.

They were sweating, gasping for air and Nehora almost felt sorry for them.

"Adelda, please wait. l can explain." Alaric said running after Adelda.

She stopped and looked at him," There is no need. Just...Just give me some space, l'll be sleeping over at my father's estate, just for today. l'm sorry." Adelda said in a low voice.

She then walked away, leaving the castle and Alaric in the hallway alone.
