Lycan Prince Matteo novel Chapter 25

Third Person's POV

"What do you think you're doing?" Freya asked as Matteo put her down when they entered their bedroom.

"I don't think you will listen to me if I just approach you. So to make sure that we were left alone and talked, I had to do that," he replied,

"What is it that you want?"

"Let's talk,"

"We already are. Why don't you get straight to the point?" She snarled at him,

"Look, I'm sorry; I really am. I just never thought that Ronaldo would tell such a lie."

"So when someone tells me that you are fu****g someone else, should I believe them and say sorry after I find out that it was all a lie?" She asked, "I don't care whether you believe him or not, but at least you asked me first before you get angry at me and threaten me."

"I never threatened you!" he exclaimed.

"Holding me on my neck which almost choked me, was not threatening to you."

"I'm really sorry, Freya. I didn't mean to--"

"It's fine; at least I realized that I don't need to expect anything from you." She cut him off with whatever he was saying. She didn't want to listen to him anymore because she was already hurt. "If you have nothing to say, I want to be alone," she added, turning her back to him. Matteo didn't push through because he knew that he was at fault and decided to give her time to cool down instead.

He went out of their bedroom and saw his father. He needed to talk to him and ask for some advice. He knew that he shouldn't let this continue, but he had no way to assure Freya. He doesn't know what to do or what to say. He wanted his mate, but he never really had any serious relationships that would have taught him what to do in times like that.

"Son, got a problem?" King Marco asked, and he nodded as he sat on a chair in front of him. "It was about your mate?" he asked again.

"I don't know what I am going to do with her. She doesn't want to forgive me, and I was thinking about her to see if she still wanted me to be her mate."

"How can you say that? She came with you so naturally; she wanted you."

"Then why was it hard for her to forgive me? I saw how you and Mom were; even if she was very mad at you, she couldn't help but forgive and trust you back."

"Your mom and I are mated. We marked each other so naturally that our bond is strong. You and Freya, on the other hand, did not mark each other yet and had a bad start. Take it easy and be more understanding. I am sure that your mate is very insecure because she doesn't have a scent."

Matteo had planned on talking to her. That was the reason why she carried her back to their bedroom so he would be able to tell her about his first mate. But she was angry and didn't want to listen to her.

"Matteo, I won't be able to hand the kingdom over to you if you don't get yourself straight. You have to settle everything with your mate first before you take over. You need your mate; you need Freya," the king warned him, and he nodded. He already knew that; that's why he wanted to make things clear too.

"Dad, my beast is not helping me. I can feel him very happy when we are with Freya, but when we are alone, he would hide himself from me and never talk to me unless he was going to yell at me."

"Don't tell me until now you didn't know the name of your beast."

"I regret to inform you, but yes. He never told me what his name was, even his reason for not telling me." Matteo admitted,

"How did you manage to win all the wars that you have been through?"

"Well, when it comes to that, I don't need to ask him. He helped me and allowed me to use his power and strength."

"Then you need to be marked and mated." King Marco said, "I had a feeling that you had an ancient beast. One of the council members said that you are going to be the most powerful king in history. That must be the reason why, even if you are not getting along well, he still helped you during your fight. He didn't want to lose to anyone because he was superior to everyone. Being an ancient Lycan, he was fierce, and only his mate could ever calm and soothe him. Never bed any female Lycan, she-wolf, or woman; he is going to destroy you if your mate will never accept you," he added.

Matteo nodded his head. Now he would have to wait for the full moon and mark Freya. He wanted to be closer to her, but she wouldn't allow him, so he made a promise to only listen to her and no one else. He is going to make her his, no matter what.
