　　"MINE!!!!" 
　　"What do you want me to do? I caught you kissing! You allow him to kiss you knowing you had a mate!" he said angrily, "You know I am your mate!!" he added.
　　Freya is the adoptive daughter of the warrior mated couple of the Midnight Pack. She didn't have a scent, so everyone thought that she didn't have a wolf, just like humans.
　　Matteo Harith is the Lycan prince, soon to be king, who was waiting for his mate. He had smelled her since 9 years ago in the palace, but after that, he never found her, no matter how much he looked for her. When Matteo was assigned by his king's father to look into the case of a pack that had been wiped out, he lived in the Midnight Pack and found Freya. The moment Matteo stepped out of his SUV, Freya found out that he was her mate. But Matteo couldn't smell her at all. A tournament that had been held within the pack made Matteo find Freya to be his mate when their eyes met. 
　　When Matteo finally smelled Freya's scent, it was also the time that she remembered what had happened in her childhood and that the palace had refused to help them when they asked, which caused her biological parents' death. What is he going to do when Freya was blaming the royals and wanted to reject him even after they mark each other?

Lycan Prince Matteo

　　"I'm sorry, Your Highness for being late." Freya said and I saw her smiling at dad when I looked at her. She didn't give me a glance, so I was sure that she was still mad at me. I know that I had been rude to her and might have scared her earlier. It's just that, Ronaldo came to me telling me that she had disrespected him. In the palace, we learn to respect the elders regardless of rank. It was a basic etiquette for everyone, ranked or not.


　　"Come on, dear." Dad said and motioned her to sit next to him. "Matteo said that you are not feeling well." he added,


　　"Yes, Your Highness," she replied. Eunice was sitting with us along with her father, Ronaldo. They looked happy when I went without my mate and now that she was here, I could see that they were both furious. Their heartbeats tell me so too. I looked at my mate and tried to assess her feelings but I got nothing.
