The Alpha King’s Fated Scarred Mate

Chapter 41

“Fool! They are trying to ruin your chances. Don’t yield in to the pressure.”

“what do you think you’re doing? I said, step down! Suppress your anger!”

“Your reputation has already being besmirched in the presence of the alpha, now if you killed him, they’d think you’re head over heels on the position of the governor.”

I could heard those whispers flushing into my system from my ears, cold striking my spine. I twirled around in search of the person, I actually found no one, but those puppets of Jayden.

Jayden wasn’t making an effort to caution his dogs. He pretended to be engrossed in his thoughts.

I scoffed, “Jayden,” I muttered inwardly , checking at Jayden’s body’s reaction from the corner of my eyes as I backed down.

A bubbles of their scornful laughter erupted in the air as they saw me, retreating. The guy earlier on whose name was Jake threw a jeer at me, and whispers some words lowly before turning to me.

“Jace, you are such a coward. Why don’t you come fight with me, huh?” “You son of a_”

“I think that’s enough!” The guy besides man spoke, his voice deep and compelling.

Jake wanted to tease further, but halted, seeing the glare from the guy.

“I know retreating made you seems like a weakling, coward, but think about your future, the consequences.” The whisper flushed into my ears repeatedly.

My eyesbrow shot up in a frown. “Who the hell are you?” I asked.

“I would let you know who I am when the time is ready, but I’ll be your protector.” The voice resounded in my mind again.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

‘okay.’ i muffled some air in, then stayed up until I was partially asleep. I was just wondering about Jayden’s reaction towards me this moments. He refused to speak with me, neither did he cautioned his followers from hurling Insults at my mother.

“Stop being greedy, Jace! Being a scholar, or a Traveller fits you than striving with Jayden, the future Alpha King in becoming the governor of Redmond pack .

I heard that but kept mute. Not, because I was scared or weak, but because the whisper keep saying words to pacify me.

Soon, their gossips about me died down, and I drifted into a deep slumber.

“Wake up!” I could heard the voices in my head.

“Son, wake up.” I could heard my father’s voice.

“Father,” i cried out from my sleep, my eyes parting to get struck with the piercing ray from the sunrise.

There were no glimpse of anyone, I was the only one around in the spot we were the previous night. What could have happened?

I’m a light sleeper, I don’t sleep too much and I just couldn’t find them anymore.

I breathe a sigh of frustration, my gaze scrutinizing the entire places.

‘how was I able to sleep for too long without noticing them leaving me?

“They left , leaving you behind.” A hoarse sounded behind me.

I twirled to see the guy from last night, standing alongside his horse. Seeing his horse, my eyes littered the entire area, it was then it dawned on me that mine horse was missing.

Who could have taken my horse?

“Who took my horse?” I stared hard at him.

” My name is Dain, son of viscount Sorrento from the Green pack. ”

” I didn’t ask for your backstory , i only ask about my horse!” I replied harshly at him, my breath steaming.

“If you keep yelling that way at me, I bet if i would ever listen to you, talkmore of providing an abawrs to you.”

Dain said, and my shoulders dropped at us words.

“I overheard then last night talking about killing you, kill your horse, or setting your horse free.

“maybe they later choose the latter out of the options.” Dain muttered, rubbing hands sweetly.

” If you don’t mind , we might ride on my horse together untill we arrive at the mountain side.”

‘Don’t make friends. Always be careful.”my mother’s words replayed in my head.

Why should I trust him? He didn’t leave with the rest of the crew, he stood at my front offering to share a horse with me.

Doesn’t that sounds ridiculous?

*Deal?” He demanded, his knuckles stretch I’m the air, but I ignored him while walking away.

He Didn’t relent In his efforts as he walked slowly behind me, while I lead the way.

My hands shoved into my cloaks in search of the map but met with an empty space. Everything on me was gone which makes rage to swell in my veins.

How could I have slept so foolishly that I didn’t noticed anything about their movement? I don’t even know the way to follow!

“You can hop on my horse for the last time, or I’ll leave you here.”

” What did you want from me?” I brawled at him, he flinched.

Dain ignored my rudeness and hop onto his horse, his gaze hovering over me as be was a feet taller than me due to his current position.

“Nothing! Just wants us to be friends.” He answered in a lower tone.

” I don’t want to be friends with you! I just want to be alone.”

A smile tugged at the corner of his lips, “I’m not a backstabber!” His lips twitches.

“Get on, we must arrived at the mountain before them, i know of a route we could take, different from the one on the map.”

” And you thin I’ll trust you?” I bellowed, shooting my brow at him.

Dain was quiet for a while, he shrugged his shoulders and stared straight Into my eyes.

“Not like you have a choice. Don’t you want to be the governor?”

” No,” i answered.

“You won’t become a governor, even if you know that your mother’s position In the palace would be elevated?” Dain asked, darting his gaze away from me, his hands grabbing the horse whips.

“If I were you, I’d do anything to ensure my mother is being respected in the palace and whole of the kingdom.”

” Why telling me this? Aren’t you also interested in becoming the governor?” ” Aren’t you going to make your father proud?”
