My Second Chance Mate's

Melissa

The moon party kicked off and I knew I was going to have fun. Everyone was clad in white or silver and had their heads decorated.

I was on my fourth potion when I noticed people staring at me in disgust.

I felt uncomfortable but I ignored them and continued to have another drink. I was so happy today because it was heavily rumored that the moon collided with the stars today and made finding mates so much easier.

I was twenty-two years old without a mate and it was embarrassing, I was taking yet another drink when a girl stood abruptly before me.

"Goddess!" I shouted,

"You scared me!" placing a hand on my chest as she continued to look at me like a crazy person then she smiled.

"Look, I don't know if you know but this is strictly by invitation..." she trailed off and I looked up at her, astonished by her audacity.

"People are staring and we don't want you to make people uncomfortable," she said and took a good look at me.

What did she mean by that!?

"Uncomfortable, how?" I asked, my voice getting defensive

I'm sure the alcohol was playing more than a few tricks on me.

"We know that you're mateless and woofless -

My face was constructed into one of shock and anger.

"You're a bad omen. Don't you see that?" She whispered and I didn't think my eyes could stretch more than they were.

" I think it would be best if you left so Please leave," she said in a sweet tone and walked out on me flipping her hair as she left.

I stood there like a statue, shocked to my bones at how people could be so mean.

A part of me wanted to keep on drinking, twice more than normal but I thought twice as shame engulfed me. Making me leave the party sad.

I was mateless and woofless but that wasn't my fault and how people kept knowing about that flaw made me wonder if I had it written somewhere.

I knew that I wasn't from their pack originally but that didn't give them or anyone the right to treat me that way.

I sighed to myself as something started to call out to me. I called out back and ecstasy filled my bones.

What was this?

I love the scent that engulfed me and before long I was breathing it in till that was all I could perceive, my mind searching for what it must have been.

A part of me remembered that to feel a scent from nowhere was to have your mate nearby.

I was suddenly excited as I grasped the opportunity of my mate being nearby.

This could be the end of everything. All the rejections and insults? This could be it.

If he was close, I needed to meet him.

I moved quickly, as I didn't want the scent to die out. Excitement powered me through as I moved till the scent was the only thing in my nose even when I came in contact with the palace gates, I still moved forward.

Suddenly, I felt my body light on fire, a good kind of fire that brought warmth to my skin and insides.

I pressed my legs together to stop the feeling but the more I pressed my legs, the more I felt a moan at the back of my throat.

I was excited and I was in heat, all I wanted to do was to see my mate and make him mark me as his and his alone.

The scent got stronger as I passed through the throne room and some other rooms but the moment I got to the garden, the scent stopped.

I was still excited and juices dripped down the side of my thighs as I moved, I bit my lip in ecstasy.

All the beautiful things that he could do to me filled my head proportionately.

I placed a hand on my stomach to still myself and that was when I heard it.

It started at first but then fast, tiny sounds coming from inside the garden.

My heart started to beat fast as I heard more thumping and as I pressed my ears to the closed door, I heard moans.

I wanted to back away but the more the moans came out, the more annoyed I felt.

I have never felt like this, constricted about what to do, as the moans came out even louder, I couldn't help the anger that suddenly built within me.

I opened the door with force and I was met with an outstretched bareback in the shadows, I realized that the moans were coming from someone else in this same Garden.

My face fell as I realized without a doubt that I was connected to the guy but that he was sleeping with someone else.

I gasped in horror as he finally turned back and paused for a moment.

"Don't stop" the girl said and he smiled broadly

And

He kept going!

I stood there, with my thighs dripping all of my juices, my mouth dry and watering at the same time.

I was the one supposed to be bent over, not someone else. Hurt filled my heart as I turned around and walked out of the door.

"Stay!" he commanded and as though I was under a spell, I stood there and heard his every grunt and heard every moan until he was finished, and from where I was, my eyes rolled back in pain and yet I was still hungry for his touch.

"Were you the one that called out to me?" He asked and I turned to look at him, my face in horror of what it was he was asking me, he stepped out of the shadows, a smirk on his face.

The moment my eyes saw him, I immediately felt stupid.

What on earth did they put in that drink because I was delusional?

"Are you,- stressing the word as though it was some form of disease

" supposed to be my mate?" He asked me as he looked at me from my head to my toes and I froze.

There was no way that Lucius Hayden, prince of the ice stone pack was my mate.

No way this man whore and brat was my mate!
