‘ she won't eat at the same table with my mate. ’ Keats said trying to calm down his temper that his mother has skyrocketing ever since he returned.
‘ then let her eat in your chambers. ’ the Queen stated.
‘ Darling, you know that there are punishments for trying to come in between mates. ’ Killian tried to say to his wife in a soothing tone but she as having of it.
‘ oh shush, dear, the divinities wanted some one to come in between them or else they should not have tied that prophesy around her neck. ’
‘ fine, if you are that way. ’ Keats said as he stood up.
‘ where are you going ’, his mother asked.
‘ to be with my mate who you did not even welcome. ’
‘ crown Prince Keats Ernest Marcello. Your duty is to obey the king and queen. I order you to take a seat. ’
‘ you are wrong. ’ Keats replied without turning to face them. ‘ my duty is first to my mate above all. ’ Keats said as he left but they heard a girl voice outside.
‘ where are you going ?’ Mo asks as Keats came out from the room.
‘ we are not to eat with them, let's eat in private. ’ Keats said as he dragged moira hand to make her follow him.

‘ the queen requires your presence in the morning room. ’ a maid said as she shook Mo violently to wake up.
‘ if your hand is still in contact with my skin in the next 10 seconds, you will lose the entire hand. ’ Mo said sleepy but the maid jerked her hand far away from Mo then backed away from her as she rises and yawned. ‘ great now what were you saying, I did not get anything before due to you almost shaking all my teeth out of my mouth. ’
The maid recovered herself enough to raise her chin in a haughty manner. ‘ the queen orders you to the morning room for tea. ’
‘ and the location. ’ Moira asks rubbing her eyes sleepily.
‘ the side of the room where you met your mate as he was coming out from last night. ’ the maid said with a scorn on her face.
‘ Okay. ’ Mo replied as she stood. ‘ keep in mind that you are already in my bad book and that the queen won't remain in that position forever. In fact in less than five years I will be queen and you know what that means ?’ Moira asks the maid who wore a thinking expression and when she realised what it means her eyes widens in fear and uncertainty. While Mo gave a a feral smile and the maid started shifting back until she was out of the door then ran as fast as her legs could carry her.

‘ I requested for your presence an hour ago. ’ the queen snapped at Moira who entered wearing a jeans shorts and an oversized tee shirt.
‘ I know. I had to do my morning rituals and take a cup of caffeine then something told me that you would pick a fight with me and I needed energy so I had to eat. ’ Mo said as she sat down crossed her legs in front of her and poured tea into a tea cup.
‘ that's not how to behave like a princess. ’ the queen said as she stared at her son mate who was everything that a princess would never be and more.
‘ I know and it is a good thing. Imagine that I act so bratty. Your son would have rejected me. ’
‘ well he should have either way. There is no hope for you. ’ the queen snapped.
‘ thank God. ’ Mo said happily as she stood up. ‘ so that means that there is no need for us to see each other face right. ’
‘ sit, ’ the queen commanded with enough force inside her tone that had Mo sitting before she realised that she had obeyed. ‘ moira. ’ the queen said testing the name on her tongue. ‘ so bland. ’
Mo chuckles ‘ I can not believe that you alpha commanded me. ’
The queen ignored Mo as if she did not say anything. ‘ unlike Clarissa. It sounds simply divine. ’ the Queen said as Clarissa bowed her head to the queen.
‘ so this the point where you tell me that I am not good enough for my mate then say the Clarissa is better than me making me feel bad then I run out crying. ’ Mo asked with her hands folded across her chest. ‘ No thank you. I don't want to act as if I give a crap In fact I think that I am done here ’ Mo stood up.
‘ sit. ’ The queen commanded but Mo was prepared and she absorbed the power behind the word the smirk when she saw the queen surprised face. ‘ I said sit down. ’ the Queen ordered more force behind the command that she took a step towards the chair before steeling herself.
‘ I am an Omega. ’ Mo said as she turned her face sideways to look at them. ‘ I do not need to tell you which type do I? ’ she concluded as she left, while the queen and Clarissa sat in shock.
‘ she is an absorber. ’ Clarissa whispers.
‘ it can't be. They are extinct and certainly not a quality found among wolves. ' the queen snapped.
