Mated to the Alpha Knight novel Chapter 17

“Babe, you don’t understand! I can’t wear pale pink polish!”

“What about hot pink?”

“No! That’s even worse, I need like a sassy pink or maybe an angry pink,”

“An angry pink?” Emrys questioned as he watched Ostana bicker to Laker about nail polish, I laughed and pushed both boys out of the way. Laker and Emrys reflected each other's faces as Ostana was deep in thought, peering over each polish bottle, her finger twirling a strand of her raven black hair.

“Here,” Picking up the color I knew Ostana was looking for, I turned around as all three pair of eyes landed on me. “Cerise pink,”

“Perfect!” She squealed, prancing in a small dance. Smirking towards Laker, I shook my head.

“Don’t worry, you'll learn soon,”

“I hope,” He murmured, ice green eyes wide. Ostana chuckled and pecked his cheek, after we paid for the nail polish and went to a few more stores, I was feeling hungry; Ostana and I agreeing that the food court would suffice, both boys took our orders and went to get the food while we sat at a table.

Ever since Emrys and I got closer, my heat had kept itself at bay, but still my body yearned to be close as possible to Emrys; this morning we had hardly woken up and I was already atop of him, my lips gaining heavenly dominance over his, and the only reason we didn’t mate was because Laker started banging on Emrys’ door, screaming about dragging his ass out of bed so we could all go get pancakes.

“I love this city,” Ostana spoke as she watched passing people, all of them laughing and happy; so different from our shallow faced town. “Its bright, beautiful, and the people are so nice; a part of me wouldn’t mind moving in with Laker tomorrow,”

Smiling at her, I agreed. “Yeah, and did you see that huge park in front of Laker’s house? It’s super gorgeous!” Before I could utter another word, two girls came up to us. One was short and plum, her dark complexion complimented by a gold nose piercing, while her friend was tall and super skinny, her almond eyes darker than Ostana’s and hair much shorter.

“This might be weird,” The tall girl started. “But are you two for real hanging out with the future knight and his beta?”

“The future who?” I questioned raising my brows as Ostana looked towards me in confusion. Pointing a finger, the shorter one smiled and blushed, following her line of sight, sure enough - she was pointing at the backs of Laker and Emrys.

“Future Knight of the King’s army, you know the hot tall one with black hair,”

“The beta is hot too,” The girls' voices overlapped each other, giggling, and their first sentence was enough to send me into a fury of rage; Emrys was mine. How dare they look at him, at my mate, and drool over him as if all he was is a sex item. And Future Knight? As in Future Knight Alpha… No… It couldn’t be.
