Lycan Prince Matteo novel Chapter 21

Freya

The breakfast was over, and after that, Ronaldo, the financial advisor, messed with my mind. He left as if he hadn't done anything. Yes, what he said affected me so much. Who wouldn't, when you found out that your mate had scented his mate from a long time ago and that I am actually his second chance mate? I don't know if that was possible for them, but do I need to think about it?

Something like trust is very hard to get from anyone. Now that I found out about Matteo's first mate, I am starting to think that it was the reason why he wasn't marking me yet. He is almost a hundred years old, so he might have smelled his mate before. But what made me think was the fact that he never heard anything from her at all after that. He didn't find her, and if she was dead, he could have felt it, right?

I wanted to talk to him about that, but I had a feeling that he didn't want to discuss it with me. After breakfast, he sent me back to our room, and Camila was the only person I talked with. I didn't leave the bedroom; isn't that unusual? I should have been roaming around the palace and getting to know everyone as their princess and future queen. So, why am I really here?

"Do you have something in mind that bothers you, princess?" Camila asked. She must have noticed me sighing heavily. Yes, heavily, because of the fact that he might have doubts or hesitations about our mate bond. I don't know about him, but my feelings for him are very intense.

"No, nothing at all," I replied. I don't know her yet, so I don't want to tell her how or what I feel.

"If there is anything that bothers you, please don't hesitate to tell me or ask anything, and I am going to try to answer truthfully," she said, and I could see that she was sincere, so I smiled at her. She couldn't tell me what I wanted to know; Matteo, my mate, should.

"Don't worry, I didn't have any problems whatsoever." I simply told her.

"Prince Matteo will be back a little late; he had a meeting with his future beta and gamma, and every time they do that, they tend to forget about the time." She informed me,

"Thank you; if you have anything to do, you can leave me here, and I can manage by myself," I told her,

"No, I was assigned to watch after you when you're inside the palace. Prince Matteo is very strict about not leaving you alone. I guess he was worried that something might happen to you or someone might bully you." she replied,

"There's nothing to worry about; I can take care of myself." I said, "Is there a place where I can pass the time besides in this room?" I asked after I was bored to death and wanted to leave the bedroom already.

Matteo didn't say anything after he sent me back here, so I didn't know if I was allowed to go out either. But why would he restrict me to our bedroom? Is my life really in danger?

"If you are interested in gardening, the back of the palace has a lot of flowers. You could do some planting if you like." She answered, but sorry for her; I had no idea about planting anything.

"I see, how about cooking?" she asked.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know about that either."

"That's Prince Matteo to you. You stand in your place, and we won't have any problems." I replied, which made her angrier. I wanted to laugh at what she looked like, and I thought that she looked somehow familiar when the royal financial advisor came.

"Eunice, dear, you're back," he said, and then I looked at them and realized that they looked alike. So, are they father and daughter?

"Dad, what is this bitch doing here?" she asked,

"Matteo, bring her here," he replied, and it angered my wolf, Pi.

"That's Prince Matteo to you too, old man," I said, and Camila gasped.

"How dare you call me an old man!!" he shouted,

"How dare you shout at me? I am your princess!!!!" I yelled back. Pi was so angry that she excreted her aura, and I'm pretty sure that they felt it because their eyes widened at the same time. "You are going to address Matteo as Prince and not by his name, you disrespectful bitch and old man!" Pi added, shouting, and the two bared their necks in confusion.

"Now that we are clear," I continued and looked at Camila. "Let's go; I wanted to freshen up," I said and walked to the stairs first. That bitch being here will surely make my life miserable, and she will surely taunt me. Sorry to say, but there's no way that I am going to back down. Not if it was for Matteo.
