The Deserted Alpha Princess novel Chapter 4

Jennifer's POV:

As per Alpha Norman's strict instructions, I began to prepare for the welcome ceremony and the trials, and tried my best to not make any mistakes. While I was busy working, I heard my wolf crying in my mind.-

"Eva, what's wrong?" I asked.

"We were rejected by our mate."

"I'm sorry. I have accepted his rejection."

"You don't have to apologize. I know he won't be a good mate. But still, I can't help feeling sad."

"We might not have another mate," I said dejectedly.

She stopped crying at once and said, "That's impossible! I believe that the Moon Goddess will give us a second chance."

"Maybe. But after last time, I don't have much expectation for my mate."

"Be optimistic! By the way, Jennifer, you haven't told me your birthday wish yet."

"My birthday wish? I want to become stronger so that I can take revenge!"

Although Alpha Norman had clearly told me that I couldn't participate in the trials, I didn't give up. Becoming stronger was my only goal. I would never forget the way Beta Arthur killed my father and took over the pack. Only when I became stronger could I successfully take revenge!

Two days later, on the day of the welcome ceremony, the Dark River Pack was bustling. All the werewolves of the pack gathered in the square, and there was a long line to welcome the prince. Everyone was excited to see him in person.

At noon, Prince Anthony Jones of the Osman Kingdom finally arrived with a group of lycan guards. The square was covered with expensive red carpet, and firecrackers were being set off everywhere, filling the area with loud crackling noises.

Prince Anthony was wearing a blue military uniform, with a lot of medals pinned on his chest. He had a handsome chiseled face, but with delicate facial features that made him look noble. He was tall and sturdy, with a serious expression on his face. There was a dignified aura around him that was befitting of royalty. Every step he took made the she-wolves gathering in the square scream like crazy. However, sensing his innate coldness, they did not dare to approach him, and could only settle for admiring him from afar.

"He's so handsome! Oh my God! I have never seen such a handsome man before."

"Who can avoid falling in love with such a handsome and powerful man? What's more, he is the prince of the Osman Kingdom! He comes from a noble and supreme background."

"God, I'm falling in love with him."

Many of the she-wolves were gushing. Some of them even started daydreaming about getting close to him. But I wasn't in the mood to look down on them. I just stared at Prince Anthony in utter disbelief.

I smelled a unique fragrance coming from Prince Anthony, which was even stronger than what I had smelled from Kevin.

Eva excitedly paced around my mind. "Jennifer, he's our mate!"

"No, it must be a mistake. He is a lycan, but I'm just an ordinary werewolf. Besides, I'm just a slave right now! How could the Moon Goddess choose me to be his mate?"

"He is your mate," Eva insisted cheerfully.

At this moment, Prince Anthony turned and looked straight at me.

My heart pounded wildly against my chest, and I could barely breathe. The prince must have found out that I was his mate!

But what would he do? He was in such a high position that he definitely couldn't accept me as his mate. Did that mean he would reject me immediately?

I wanted to see his reaction, but he remained expressionless. After staring at me for a moment, he looked away. Then, he continued to walk forward.
