(Xeraphina’s POV)
How dare that insolent man think he can make a mockery out of our kingdom. How dare our father decide not to speak against him. He walked into view after his ignorant comment, and I froze. He was smiling like a Chesshire cat, staring straight at me. Who was this man?
I stared at him. My cold demeaner never faltered as I stared straight at my mate. I felt the pull towards him, but I couldn’t pull any emotions for him, why was I like this?
Should I reject him?
‘Don’t even think about it Xera.’ Artemis bellowed in shock. See, we are different, and I know I wouldn’t die, plus why would we want to bring another down with us. We couldn’t give him what another mate could.
‘He could die though.’ Artemis whined from hearing my thoughts. Only if he was a royal. Is he one?
