Lycan Prince Matteo

Freya

“Does Clay like me? I initially thought he and Alec were just teasing me. I am aware of the rejection he experienced from a female Lycan two years ago. It was confirmed that I couldn’t move an inch when I stumbled upon them kissing and making out. I was certain she was his first, considering he was still very young. What baffles me is how he recognized her as his mate when he didn’t have a wolf at the time of rejection.

Clay is truly exceptional. He acquired his wolf only last year, just before turning 17, earning him the position of Joric’s future beta. Britney isn’t suited for the role, not because she’s a she-wolf, but simply because she’s the beta’s daughter. Despite having a wolf, she lacks proficiency in combat.

“Clay…” I uttered as I noticed his expression falter until his lips met mine. I like him. He could be the right one for me. He’s been a constant presence in my life for as long as I can remember, and choosing him as my mate doesn’t feel wrong. I welcomed the kiss, even as Pi sent me a warning. I no longer cared about that. He had been with a different female Lycan, and I had been alone the entire time.

As we savored the shared kiss, a growl interrupted us. We stopped and turned towards the source, only for my eyes to widen in shock. Our eyes locked, and I couldn’t comprehend what happened because he suddenly yelled,

“MINEEEE…” Concern for Clay consumed me, so I shielded him with my body as the approaching figure neared.

“Do you dare defend him?” he asked angrily. Yes, he was furious, and I understood. Anyone would feel that way finding their mate kissing another man.

“You’re approaching as though you’re going to harm him,” I replied.

“What do you expect me to do? I caught you two kissing! You let him kiss you, knowing you have a mate!” He said angrily, “You know I am your mate!!” he added.

“Frey,” Clay spoke up,

“Don’t you dare call her that way!!” he shouted, “Can you stop shouting?” I said with irritation. “And you dare talk back to me?”

“It’s because you’re shouting. Can’t you keep your calm?” I asked.

“You want me to be calm after what I saw? What do you think of me, Freya?” he asked angrily. “You’re the Lycan Prince; you should know how to act like one.”

“You are my mate. You should know what you should have done,” he replied.

“Would you believe me if I claimed you were mine the moment you stepped out of your SUV when you arrived here? With your woman?” I asked, leaving him speechless.

“I thought so. I had already given up when I endured so much pain because you were with that female Lycan. We crossed paths, but you never noticed me. Do you expect me to wait until you smell my scent? That’s not going to happen. I don’t know how or when you found out, but that doesn’t give you a reason to get mad at me or what I am doing,” I said, then…”

Here’s a proofread and rephrased version of the text:

I glanced at Clay and said, “Come on, Mom has prepared dinner for us,” smiling as I started to walk away.

Matteo instructed, “Kevin, go to Alpha’s office and tell Daniel that we will be talking tomorrow.” He then appeared in front of me.

“Do you know your way home?” he asked Clay, causing him to look at me before nodding. “Then go home after informing her parents that I will be taking her with me to the villa,” he stated, taking my hand.

“What?” I asked, surprised.

“You heard me; don’t make me repeat it.”

“No, I need to go home,” I insisted, which only angered him again.

“You didn’t want to come with me, your mate, but allowed him to kiss you?” I hissed, “Fine!” giving Clay a sorry look, but he just smiled at me.

“He’ll take care of you, I’m sure,” he said.

“Clay, don’t tell my parents,” I told him, and he nodded before walking toward our house.

“You didn’t want them to know about us?” Matteo asked impatiently. “I should be telling them, not anyone, even Clay, my friend.”

“You will be keeping your distance from your friend, then.” It wasn’t a request; it felt like a command. I glared at him before speaking. “Are you expecting me to let you be together when I already saw you kissing?”

“You wouldn’t understand even if I explained it to you.”

“What are you trying to explain? Will you wait for me to have a chosen mate so you can be free with that future beta? Or will you reject me the way your friend’s mate did to him? I may not have noticed you, but you could at least try to tell me. You know that I will never know unless you tell me.”

“How am I going to do that when that FEMALE LYCAN WAS ALL OVER YOU WHEREVER YOU GO, wrapping her hands around yours?” I asked angrily. This time, it was Pi who was talking to him.

“She was with me, but I didn’t know that my mate was right in front of me!” he yelled again. “You, on the other hand, knew that, yet you let yourself be kissed by that mutt. And for that, I will have to punish you,” he declared.

“What-” I began to protest, but he stopped me with his mouth and kissed me. I didn’t know how to kiss yet, so I didn’t know how to respond to him. His kiss was different from Clay’s because, as he said, he was punishing me. Clay was gentle while he was ravaging. I thought I was doing right, so I wondered why I heard him growl.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Certainly! Here’s a proofread and slightly rephrased version of the passage:

“Damn!” he exclaimed after releasing me. “Damn! Damn! Damn! That mutt was your first kiss!!!” he shouted as he paced back and forth in front of me. How did he find out about that? My eyes remained wide as he carried me. When I regained my senses, I attempted to free myself, growing concerned about his evident anger.

“Put me down!” I shouted. “I said, put me down!” He paid no heed to my pleas and continued striding toward the villa where he and the other lycans were staying.

“No way,” he retorted, picking up the pace until we reached his room. Upon entering, my anger flared when I spotted a female lycan on his bed.

“Put me down!” I demanded.

“What the hell are you doing here?” Matteo yelled as he put me down, though his hand still lingered on my waist.

“Why did you bring that woman here?” Eunice asked angrily as she rose from the bed. Heavy footsteps approached, and his future beta entered.

“Why is she here, Calvin?” he asked, his tone furious.

“I don’t know. I ordered the warrior to take her back to the palace,” Calvin replied, glancing at me. “Hello, Your Highness,” he greeted with a bow.

“Are you out of your mind?” I asked him, and he chuckled.

“I suppose things aren’t settled between you and His Highness yet. We’ll leave you two alone then,” he replied, addressing Eunice. “Come with me before I handle you,” he said angrily. Fear filled the female lycan as she followed Calvin.

“Eunice, ensure you follow orders, or I’ll deal with you personally,” Matteo warned before leaving the bedroom. I was certain that she knew Matteo would carry out his threat if she disobeyed.

“Sit there,” he instructed, gesturing to the bed. “There’s no way I’m sitting there.”

“I would do as I said if I were you, Freya,” he warned. The fear gripped me, but I refused to let him see it, so I stared back at him. I didn’t care what he did to me; I would not comply with his wishes.”
