Lycan Prince Matteo

Chapter 6



Freya

“Frey,” called Clay and Alec. I glared at Joric and Britney, my only recourse at the moment.

“I didn’t sign up; it’s them,” I explained, gesturing towards the future alpha and the frustrated Luna. “The dumb and the dumber,” I added, and they both chuckled before turning serious.

“You realize you can’t back out, right? The Lycan prince expects us to take responsibility for our actions and make our own decisions. That’s why he arranged the tournament with a week-long preparation,” Alec said, and I nodded. I was uncertain whether to appear vulnerable to them or not.

“I didn’t want to join either,” I admitted. I knew Mom and Dad would be concerned when they found out. I sighed deeply. I needed to contemplate this carefully because Pi had been on edge ever since we met our mate. She seemed different, always sensible, but I sensed something was amiss with her.

“There were instances when we sensed our friends’ disloyalty. I could sense her anger and fury, as if she wished harm upon whoever our mate was involved with. Similar to the previous occasion, she cried out in pain and anguish, calling for our mate and expressing our emotions.

“Just yield in your battles,” Alec said with concern.

“No way! I’m not a coward!” I exclaimed. Even if he suggested it for my well-being, I still disliked it and would never comply. I can fight, and I know that better than anyone else.

“What are you going to do? Just let whoever your opponent is hurt you. How long do you think it will take you to heal when you don’t have your wolf yet?” Alec persistently inquired.

“I’m going to try to find out something. If anything, I’m not going to withdraw, and that’s final,” I told him. He and Clay sighed deeply; they were concerned about me. I understood that we had been friends and they had seen me bullied by many, led by the future Alpha and his companion. They even tried to fight them for me, but I always stopped them.

Jack had no son, and Britney was his only child. Unfortunately for him, his lineage as a good beta would end with him. There’s no way the pack would accept Britney as the future Beta, not because she’s a woman, but because she knows nothing but trying to get Joric’s attention, which I think she fails at miserably because the idiot only wants her to warm his bed.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Our beta continued his announcement until my mate arrived. I didn’t expect him to attend because he said he had some important matters in the neighboring pack and wouldn’t be back until dinner. I wondered what happened to him. As soon as he arrived, he scanned the area, so I lowered my head. I had a feeling he was looking for someone.

We were all seated, and I, being not so tall, was covered by another she-wolf and her friend in front of me, so I was certain he wouldn’t be able to see me, unless he knew I was with Alec and Clay, who were both huge for their age.

“I’m thankful that many of you decided to join the tournament. I want to remind you that this is only a friendly fight and is meant to measure your strength. Your Alpha has organized an outstanding program for the event, and I hope all of you will abide by the rules he sets,” Matteo said. I was only listening and still had my head down. He wouldn’t get mad if I did this the whole time; it’s how we show respect to the royals.

“I’ll be watching everyone and observing how you’ve improved since I came here, so do not disappoint me. You have to give it your all and show your might. Even then, I won’t hold it against anyone who decides to withdraw, thinking they can’t face their opponents, but at least try,” he added. Was he thinking I wouldn’t be able to fight, so he said all of this? Wait, how did he know I was on the list? I didn’t smell any lycan around earlier to inform him, and why am I assuming it’s about me?

“Thank you so much, Your Highness,” said Alpha Daniel. Matteo finished his speech, and it was our Alpha’s turn to boost our confidence. “As we’ve already said, tomorrow is the start of our tournament. But today is the opening, so we’ll have our pack run led by his highness himself,” he added. My eyes widened because I didn’t know what I was going to do.

“Hey, relax. We all know you don’t have your wolf, so you won’t be able to run with us,” Clay said, noticing my uneasiness. Oh, silly me. Did I forget about that? Of course, I won’t be joining the pack run. I sighed in relief after that thought. ‘Frey,’ Pi called me.

‘Yes, Pi?’ I asked.

‘Something is going on with me,’ she replied.

‘I noticed that too. What do you think it is?’ I asked her.

‘I didn’t know either. But whatever it is, I feel good about it,’ she replied. ‘Can’t you feel that we are getting lighter and faster? I didn’t have any anger issues before, but now I have started to feel them, as well as rage, which is how wolves should be.’ she answered. ‘I think we are transforming, Frey,’ she added.

‘What do you mean?’ I asked worriedly.

‘Maybe because we are mated to the Lycan prince, we are starting to transform into one.’

‘What?’ I asked, shocked.

‘Yes, Frey.. Four full moons have passed since we found him to be our mate. Tonight is another full moon, which makes it 5, and on the 6th full moon, we will be totally transformed into a lycan. Our only problem is whether he will be able to smell our scent or not.’

‘Is that the reason why I suddenly felt stronger? I mean, we’re of alpha blood, but I think we are getting stronger than having the alpha blood itself.’

‘I guess so. You had better prepare yourself because I don’t think I will be able to control myself if I feel angry. You should be able to do that.’ and I started to get worried.

‘You know that you are the one who tries to control me not to get angry every time. What are you saying that I should be the one who should control you?’ I asked in a panic. It was true that ever since she was the one who was calm and collected, and I was the one who couldn’t control myself. How many times did she stop me from hitting Joric and Britney along with their minions? ‘Then, we had better try to calm ourselves instead and hope that nothing’s going to happen during the tournament,’ she said, and I started to hide in the back of my head.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” Alec asked. “You sighed really deep,” he added. I didn’t want him to worry, so I smiled at him and said,

“I am fine; I was just pissed at Joric and Britney for signing me up for this.” “Don’t worry, Clay and I were on your back,” he replied.

“Thanks.”

“No biggie,” Clay said, smiling.

“I decided to run,” I told them, and they were both eyeing me. Maybe they were thinking that I was stupid. “Not on your fours, though,” I added, smiling, and they both smiled at me, and Clay said, “You can choose which of our backs you want to get on when you get tired.”

“That is sweet of you two, but no, I am going to try this for the entire run,” I replied,

“Then you still have us on your back. We don’t mind being left behind by then on this run.” Alec said,

“Let’s get ready and go, then,” I replied, and we all stood up. I looked at my mate over my shoulder before I followed my friends. I just hope that nothing is going to happen in this run.
