Chapter 3: He is My Mate!

1273 Words
"Are you ready, Aarhea?" Amara asked me while waiting until midnight. Ten minutes more, and we will know who our mate was. I looked at her side, and I saw Logan standing while looking at me. I narrowed my eyes at him and asked Amara, "What did she doing here?" Amara showed me a sweet smile and looked at Logan. "I can't help myself to look at you, Your Highness," Logan was the one who answered. I gave him a bitter look. The first time I saw him, I admit that I fell for his seductive smile, his flowery words, and his physical body and face like a God! But now, I saw him like a stray dog! "I can feel that I have already found my mate. The desire on my heart is pointing on you, Your Highness," he continued. I tilted my head, "We don't know. Maybe your mate is Amara, not me," I answered with a grin. Amara and Logan looked at each other because of what I said. I saw Amara sign him something, but I don't mind them. "No, Aarhea. I have no feelings or something towards him, so that's impossible that he is my mate," Amara said immediately. "Me, too, but let's see what will happen," I replied. "Excuse me, Your Highness, I need to grab something, but I'll be back soon," Logan excused himself, which I didn't care about. I felt Amara grab my shoulder, so I looked at her. "Did you know that Logan trained abroad for two years to become a high-rank warrior here in Crimson, Aarhea?" Amara informed me. "And Dad told me he will train him so that when you take over the Crimson Pack, he will be your beta!" she added. "Is it amazing?" I frowned. I just noticed that Amara knows much about Logan, which I didn't think about two years ago. "You seem to know Logan very well, Amara. How long have you known each other?" I asked her, which made her eyes widen. "No...no! My dad mentioned him to me, and then I remembered his name. I only met him yesterday when he visited Dad," she replied, but I did not believe what she said. Her dad mentioned Logan to her. Then, she only met him yesterday? I can't believe how an i***t she was! "Hmmm." "Yes, Aarhea, and I also heard that he was at the top of his training! He will be a perfect Mate, or a husband for you, and a perfect Alpha in Crimson!" I tilted my head. It's pretty obvious that Amara was pushing me toward Logan. If she thinks she can fool me now as she did before, she's wrong! I already knew what their plan was, what game they were playing! "Let's see what happens later, Amara. You might be surprised, and Logan is the mate you've been looking for for a long time!" I said with a grin. She was silent because of what I said. I know she was surprised by my attitude today. I didn't talk and act like this two years ago, so I know she's wondering why I suddenly changed. The former sweet, kind, naive, and stupid Aarhea was gone! Because now, the Aarhea they will meet will be strong and wise in everything! Everyone who attended the mating ceremony looked up at the moon. The hall where it was held had an open roof so we could see the bright full moon. In just a few seconds, we will meet our mate. Not everyone meets their mate at the mating ceremony, but most start here. When I found out that Logan was my mate before, I had no objection, but now, if he were still the mate that the Moon Goddess would give me, I would not allow what happened to me to happen again. Loud grunts began to fill the entire hall. I went along and closed my eyes. Different smells were mixed, but even so, there was a unique smell that each individual would find here if their mate were here. I started walking when I smelled something sweet. I don't understand that smell, but it's like a magnet that took me somewhere. I opened my eyes, and I saw Amara just standing there and sad. I know her destined mate was not here. I didn't give attention to Amara, and I started looking for where the strange smell was coming from. I followed the smell. I frowned when I noticed I was going to the back of the hall. Was he there? If he was there, what was he doing in the back? "Your Highness..." someone called me. I looked to my side and saw Logan holding a bouquet of red roses. "For you," he placed the bouquet in front of me. "I don't need them. Don't block me because I'm going to see my mate," I said. I was about to leave when he grabbed my arm. "Why are you still looking? Am I not your mate?" he asked. "Unfortunately, you are not the one, Logan, so please, get lost," I answered. "But...I feel, and I know that you are my mate, Your Highness," he insisted. I narrowed my eyes at him, "Don't push yourself on me, Logan. I know you're not my mate, so if possible, stay away from me!" I said to him in disgust. I raised my voice, so I knew I had the attention of the other attendees. I looked around, and I was right. They all looked at me with surprise on their faces. I held my breath. I was about to walk to the back of the hall when my mate's smell intensified. I'm just standing and waiting for him to come out. I know he will enter the hall. Soon, a man came out from the back of the hall. My eyes widened when I recognized him. This can't be happening! He can't be my mate! He has a perfect physical body and a nerd look, but he is wolfless, the center of bullying by he-wolves at school, and I admit that I hurted him verbally several times when I heard that he has feeling on me. I can't believe that Moon Godness will give him to me! He looked at me while walking towards me. I gulped, and I closed my eyes because of the sensation I was feeling. I couldn't help myself, but I knew he didn't know that he was my mate. "Is there any problem, Your Highness?" I opened my eyes when he suddenly asked me. "None..none.." I answered, my voice stammering. He suddenly caressed my cheek, "You look like you're sick, Your Highness," he said, which made me move backward while looking at him. "How dare you touch Aarhea, Jake!" I heard Amara yell. I looked at Amara, and she pushed him. Jake bowed down because of what Amara did to him. I felt pity, so I approached them. "Don't yell at him, Amara. Jake didn't mean anything bad to me," I protected him. Jake looked at me in surprise. I gave him a smile which made him bow his head again. "But he touched you, Aarhea. You know he is the lowest he-wolf here in Crimson because he is wolfless! So he has no right to touch you!" "You don't have the authority to say who can touch me, Amara. And one more thing, it's okay with me when he touches me!" I replied, which made her shocked. "But..." She didn't continue her words when I talked. "He is my mate!" I announced, which made them all shocked.
