MY MATE

the gathering

luna and alpha had me working to the bone, ive done all the guests rooms, the luna and alphas room. the laundry and now i have scrub all the floors clean.

you might be wondering who i am.

Well my story started 13 years ago i was 7, my parents was royalty and an alpha and luna. my current alpha stormed the castle and found me hidden, they stole me away, whilst my parents fought them i had watch as they struck my father, slaughtered him to shreds, my mother, had my brother ripped from her grasp and they tore my mother while we watched crying, screaming for my mother.

my brother they allowed me to look after him here as long as i never speak of what happened.

i havnt spoken since that awful night everything was ripped from me, my parents, my life was robbed that day no longer my own.

my name is aria and this is my story.

"ARIA WHERE IS THAT WRETCHERED GIRL" the luna shouted.

'aria she sounds like a bloody banchee'

aria giggled at her wolf rainas remark.

"What are you laughing at, you need get the food ready, we have my daughter and her mates ceremony today and a special guest, DONT MESS IT UP, GO...NOW"

aria nodded and got up and rushed to the kitchen, no one was allowed to help her but a few members of staff did help by doing some of it the night before.

"aria, there you are...., i need you to get out there with drinks, a few arrived already just waiting on the prince and his family...."

"yes...alpha..."

she hurried getting all drinks on trays and getting out there handing them out.

as she get back into the kitchen the alpha walks out the back with his guest of honor.

"my daughter is very excited for you and your family to be here, your majesties, she is very greatful"

"thank you, where do we need to sit" the princes beta asks.

"right at the front i will get one of my s....staff show you"

"thankyou"

the alpha stormed into the kitchen and saw his daughter stood over aria with a s***h on her hip.

"what is going on here"

"aria here thought she would threaten me so i slashed her"

"aria, get that covered with something and get out there, the king needs a drink and so does the rest of the royals"

"y...yes...alpha" she stuttered through the pain, nothing is as bad as the lashings she would get if she stepped out of line.

she got sorted and grabbed the tray with the royal drinks on, she kept her eyes downcast as she got closer to the table.

"your majesties, your drinks" she placed the drinks down and hurried off after bowing not even waiting for a thankyou.

princes point of view

i hate being at these things, i do not like that alpha. he rubs me up wrong, so does that daughter of his, i saw her when she came out, she rubbed herself on me, typical attention seeker.

now i have sit at this table in idle chit chat with my parents. luckily i brought my beta and not kelly.

a smell graced my nostrils, mint and vanilla. that smells absolutely devine just then i see the most beautiful girl i have ever seen, what is that on her side, and her arms.

'damon, did you see that' his beta minklinked the prince

'yes i did, can you find out that smell please'

'what smell. your majesty'

'vanilla and mint'

'all i can smell your majesty is that girl'

"son. care to share" my mother asked gracefully

"mum..." i was just then interrupted as the alpha came to the table.

"your majesties, i wanted to ask if the drinks were adequate enough for you" the alpha asked.

"yes. thank you, can you ask that girl come back please. i would like a refil and thank her"

"of course my king" with that the alpha stormed off, he heard yelling then a petite she wolf came out.

she hurried over to us and refilled our drinks.

'mate' my wolf whimpered.

"thank you my dear, what is your name"

"her name is maria, your majesty, she is quite the trouble sometimes" the alpha butted in.

as the alpha spoke i noticed the girl flinch, is she afraid.

"thank you"

"mum i would like to talk to the girl, if possible alpha" he asked.

he noticed the girl nodding after her eyes glossed over.
