Chapter 101

“They are mate!” Valerie was screaming right now. “Don’t take my mate! You can’t take my mate away from me!” Tears streamed down her face.

Valerie broke down the moment they entered the bedroom. Thankfully, she knew better not to do it in front of thousand of people out there, who would obviously take this opportunity to be the topic of their gossips in every tea party.

Jasmine bit her lip, she balled her fists and watched how Valerie clung onto her destined mate.

Meanwhile, alpha Lorent was speechless, he held Valerie, but his eyes were on Jasmine. There was this longing in his eyes. The pull of the mate bond was too strong to be denied by the two of them.

Killian growled, while king Alex glowered at alpha Lorent.

“Is that true, Jasmine?” Alex asked his daughter, he knew the answer even before she replied to his question and his heart broke for her.

“Yes, father. He is my destined mate.” Jasmine didn’t know how she found her voice, but she was grateful that her voice was not shaking. She didn’t want to show her weakness, neither she wanted to shed tears in front of them. She didn’t know why, but she felt this strong urge to appear unfazed.

The king finally spoke after silence stretched out in this room. Not a complete silent, since Velerie’s cry echoed throughout the wall.

“We need to discuss about this further.”

“No!” Velerie refused and alpha Lorent tried to stop her, yet she didn’t want to listen to that. “I am pregnant! You couldn’t take him away from me! Just because you are the princess in this kingdom, you can do whatever you pleased!” Velerie was furious, even though Jasmine had not yet said anything about this matter.

And probably because Velerie was too emotional, she said something that she shouldn’t.

“You are not even the real daughter of the king!”

“Valerie!” alpha Lorent snapped. That was a taboo topic to talk about and the king had made sure no one questioned her royal status in this kingdom, but Valerie just mentioned something that was unacceptable.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

“Impudent!” Alex roared, the king was livid and Velerie whimpered when she became the receiving end of the king’s wrath.

The king was not the only one, who was enraged, Killian pushed himself off the door and approached them.

Out of instinct, alpha Lorent put himself in front of the two men to shield Velerie. He chose her for a reason and just because he found his destined mate, he would be fine if someone else harmed

her.

Jasmine didn’t want Valerie to be harmed too, she was not bothered by what she said. She could understand why she slipped up and she could see that Valerie was also shock after the word left her lips.

“Guard!” Alex growled.

“There is no need for that, father,” Jasmine said, she stepped forward and held her king father’s hand. He was shaking with rage. She also intertwined her fingers with her alpha father too, to prevent him from attacking alpha Lorent.

She knew how bad it looked like, but she would feel even worse if they harmed the two of them. In a way, the two of them were innocent.

She was also innocent in this matter. No one was at fault here. It was only the timing that was not right.

“Let me talk for a while,” Jasmine said, she gripped both of her fathers tightly, keeping them in place before their rage completely consumed them and when the guards came upon the king’s order, Jasmine dismissed them.

Once again, the room fell into silent, but this time, Valerie had m**d her cries. She was terrified for her being left by her mate, but at the same time, she was also terrified at the alpha and the king. The two of them looked like they were going to tear her apart for hurting the princess’s feeling.

Probably, this was the only time where Alex and Killian were on the same page. They were trying to protect their daughter.

It was not the same, but both of them had gone through the pain of losing their mate. Therefore, they didn’t want Jasmine to go through with the same agony.

“There is nothing to talk about,” Killian said sternly. “The rule is very clear. The mate stays together. You should prioritize your destined mate.”

It sounded so weird when the word came from him, but he couldn’t care less about it.

“No. I refused to stay with him.”

Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard that and this time, Valerie had completely stopped crying, she looked at Jasmine closely and blinked away her tears. She was surprised that Jasmine would say such thing.

“Tell me your full name.” Jasmine didn’t know what this man, she only knew he was her mate, but she didn’t even know his name at all, or anything about him, aside from the fact, he was going to

father a child with his chosen mate.

She was not going to do that. She couldn’t break a family. Therefore, it left her with no other option.

“Jasmine, we can fix this,” Killian said, but the king said nothing, he simply looked at his daughter and quietly observed her.

Shaking her head, she explained to her father. “No, father. I don’t want this union.”

“Jasmine, you don’t know what you are talking about. You don’t realize what will happen to you.” Jasmine simply looked at alpha Lorent. She didn’t ask whether he would agree with this rejection o not, because if he gave her his full name, it was the end of it, since she couldn’t reject him without

it.

“Lorent. Lorent Addison Jaz.”

And that was it.

It was not an easy decision for Jasmine to make, but finally she said the word. “I, Jasmine Alexandra Black, reject you, Lorent Addison Jaz, as my mate. May the bond severe forever.”
