You Rejected A Silver Wolf novel Chapter 2

A Mate For Princess Vanessa

Chapter Two: A Mate for Princess Vanessa

*Rihanna’s POV*

“Hmm. From here? Why don’t you go down? Can you see anything?”

The Alpha’s son tried to look from where I was standing. Sometimes he forgot I was the hated Beta’s daughter. His niceness to me usually caught me off guard because he was my enemy’s brother!

My ears weren’t very sharp, so my eyes were sharper. He was almost slipping from the hill, trying to peek down, so I wrapped my hands around him.

“Thank you,” he sighed deeply as I pulled him back. My face was beet red, and I dared not look at him. I had felt sparks holding him.

“Come down and celebrate with us. Your birthday is soon.” he stated. I laughed it off. My birthday would go as it came.

I noticed when I laughed, his eyes seemed to linger on me, so I frowned. I knew I was ugly when I laughed; he didn’t have to stare.

“You know, laugh more. You look pretty.”

What, sir? Did he mean that? I looked at his retreating figure and felt flying insects inside my stomach. Did I swallow butterflies?

That was the third chariot coming in today, carrying the last Alpha—or soon-to-be Alpha or son of an Alpha. I wanted to laugh; my wolf, Lana, was laughing already. It seemed our pretty Princess Vanessa wouldn’t find her mate today. If she did, he wouldn’t be among those fine Alpha males she hoped on.

Lana smirked devilishly. “Today will be bad for her. I’ll annoy her again.”

I brushed the idea off immediately. “You wouldn’t. Stop acting rash just because you have powers. You’ll be caught.”

And then I’d be punished for it. I only wish to lie low in this pack and be as happy as I can be.

Raymond ran to me, and I chuckled, seeing him struggle to climb the hill. The gel on his hair had weakened, making his hair look tattered. But he looked dashing nevertheless—nothing seemed to make him look bad.

I looked ahead and saw Princess Vanessa’s frustrated face. It remained for one more Alpha to arrive. I didn’t get why she, as the Alpha King’s daughter, had to get married to an Alpha as well. It should be to her mate, Alpha or not. And if he wasn’t an Alpha, would she bear to reject him? Insecure thoughts filtered into my head. Would my own mate reject me? I was a no one.

“Ahh, Rih, how do you do this!” Raymond grunted as he finally reached the top of the hill. He laid face up beside me. I rolled my eyes. He was just a weak little wolf. Or I was a really strong wolf. I made sure not to show it so as not to get hated more.

“Why are you here? Won’t you go sing for your princess?” I teased him. I knew he hated her, and his disgusted face confirmed it.

“Nah, I ran from there because so far, all the Alphas weren’t her mate. What if somehow, I became her mate? You know, maybe the Moon Goddess gave her a future Beta instead!”

My face contorted. Lana was laughing inside me; I didn’t even see what was funny. Ray ran from there because he didn’t want to be her mate?

“If you are her mate, you both would feel a mate bond before eighteen. Neither of you felt one, so you can’t be her mate now.” I explained. And if you were, dear brother, I’d make sure you reject her because she’d be the end of you.

Ray shrugged. “She’s nice to me recently, so I thought of that. Maybe it’s because her brother’s coronation is coming.” Raymond nodded.
