Chapter 11

Book:The Alpha Prince's Mate Published:2024-5-1

Hey Readers, This is not your usual kind of werewolf book. The characters here are only eighty percent human with twenty percent similar traits, behavior and way of life of a Werewolf.
They have different extended family and live together.
Ashley’s POV
“So which one of you cooked this delicious meal?” I asked them and Shiela scoffed.
“Err … none of us did..”
“What? Athena? Was it Athena again? Jeez!”
“No no, it was not Athena. Shiela cooked the meal” One of the maids quickly said.
“Uuuh… Shiela? Like she?” I pointed at Shiela who was sitting next to my sister.
“Glinda has been a good friend to me, this is the only way I could help her out” She said.
Okay, this explains why I loved the meal, why my wolf enjoyed and wanted more. Now I know why my wolf won’t stop wiggling it tail and dancing.
“Uhm” I was speechless. Shiela has seen it that I loved her food, it’s too late to even fake it or pretend that I do not.
“Go” I commanded the maids who were still standing there.
“You are a very good cook Shiela” my mom complimented.
“Thank you” Thank you ma, she smiled.
I avoided gazes with her, drank some water and left the dinning hall.
I avoided gazes with her, drank some water and left the dinning hall.
As soon as I was beyond their sight, I let my heart sag, even my wolf was disappointed in me for rejecting Shiela. Now I want her back immediately, her body, her meal and her presence in my life..
“Of course she should observe that I’m ready to amend things between us…” I soliloquised aloud.
“Wasn’t I nice to her at the dinning hall?” I asked myself..
My wolf was whining but I ignored him, now I fought with myself absentmindedly, not realizing that I was still outside the feast hall..
After a couple of minutes, Shiela came outside, chuckled when she saw me behaving weird.
“Uhm… I was just uhm, communicating with my wolf, I’m not weird” I told Shiela.
“I didn’t ask, neither do I care” She responded..
Whaoo… She really has the guts not to talk to me that way”
I really wanted to started a good conversation with her right now then apologize for how I treated how but I didn’t know how to start yet I managed to say..
“Sorry”
She turned around and looked at me as if I was insane or must have said sorry by mistake.
“You are sorry for what Ashley? She asked me..
“Mmmm … For everything, the way I treated you. I even rejected you. I’m sorry Shiela” I said looking down at my feet.
“Wait Ashley, did you and Athena really have a fight and you want to substitute her?” She asked me.
“No.. There’s nothing extra between Athena and I… Even my parents aren’t in support if there was. You were there, when they said so” I briefly explained to her.
“Okay Okay..” She wanted to leave.
“Apology accepted?” I obstructed her.
She scorned and rolled her eyes.
“Shiela I’m sorry” I repeated.
“Okay. Your apology is accepted” She finally said and I smiled, she continued to walk away and when she has taken fees steps away from me, she looked back at me and added; “Your apology is accepted doesn’t mean I’ve approved you as mate” She smiled mischievously and left my sight.
What??
Who in this pack would turn down the Alpha’s heir.
She simply did that because of Lincoln.
I wanted to hollar back her name but my parents and my sister began to walk out of the feast hall then I cautioned myself and find a place to go to vent out my anger .
Sheila’s POV..
“Gotcha!” I scared him from behind and he held his chest.
“Shi.. ela” Lincoln syllabulised my name and I giggled.
“So where have you been?”
“Have you been looking for me?” He asked me.
“Yeah, immediately after I left the feast hall” I told him.
“I… I was trailing someone” He answered me… and we began to walk together to his room.
“Who? Me? No, it can’t be me” He chuckled.
“Yeah not you” He said, I changed topic..
“Have you eaten?” I asked him.
“Yeah.. what happened? Glinda did a great job” Lincoln commented and I smiled.
“I cooked the meal” I told him.
“Uh why, why did you do the cooking? A punishment from the Alpha or his son Ashley?” He asked and I laughed.
“Oh Lincoln… Is that what first came to your mind, first I love cooking and second, Glinda asked me to help her because she wasn’t feeling too well” I told him.
“It was delicious… ” He commented and I blushed.
“Has your mate ever craved for a meal cooked by you?” He suddenly asked me.
“No”
“I mean, I don’t know. Like how would I know but he enjoyed my meal the most.. it was very obvious”
“He will be begin to crave for from from only you and from then, you… you might get back together with him” He stutter.
“I know you have always wanted to” He said with a smile.. and pinched his cheeks.
“You didn’t told me you ever craved for a meal cooked by Athena”
“I have and it is very resistable” He said..
“Infact everything about her is very resistable, her saint, her gorgeous body..” He added and I laughed again.
There was silence for a moment then I recalled my encounter with Ashely earlier.
“Ashley really talked to me today” I broke the silence.
“Spewing nonsense as usual? Getting on your nerves” Lincoln asked me.
“No, not this time around” I responded.
“What is it? What did he tell you..”
“Uhm, Lincoln” I heaved..
“Ashley apologized” I finally said.
“No he can’t, Ashley is possessive and so full of himself”
“You told me, he will come back and it worked” I replied.
“He said he is sorry for everything… and.. and he is sorry for rejecting me as his mate which simply means that he wants us to get back together…” I stuttered, looking at his face.
“So you accepted him back?” He asked me.
“Are you not happy for me Lincoln?”
“Of course, I am happy for you. I’m only over concerned about you. Didn’t I tell you I now take you as my little sister? I’m happy your mate wants you back, it’s really of rare cases” He said and I smiled.
“So what did you say to him?” He asked me.
“Uhm.. a non challant answer. I want to have an itty bitty revenge” I said.
“Revenge?”
“Yeah, I’ll continue to make him want me desperately” I said..
He scoffed and picked up his phone..
“Oh well you better have to be fast about it.. because we are resuming back to our work place tomorrow” He said and I wondered what he meant by that.
“Huh we? And what work place are you talking about? I don’t understand”
“I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you this earlier. I work in a compained which Ashley manages.. ”
“You guys are working?!” I exclaimed and he nodded..
“You have always been indoor Lincoln, how then have you been working?” I asked him.
“Because we took a long break and we are going back tomorrow” He replied.
“Where do you work?”
“In town…”
“Town? Are you leaving the pack for the city? Human world?” I couldn’t believe my ears.
“Uhm.. uhn” He said.
“Ashley and I actually but you don’t have to worry, we would around again during the weekend” He said…
“I… I… don’t want to be far from my mate” I told him
And he gave a short laugh; ” Why? Are you afraid of the city human girls? Ashley’s actually not a womanizer over there.. infact, Athena is his only slut and she is the one who turned him into what he is today” He briefly said but I shook my head.
“Ashley and I needs to get back together before he leaves” I muttered..
