Trapped In The Mating Games

Locked away

~Veronica pov

I froze not knowing what to do.

This can't be true. I avoid everyone. Well all except one. The one person I should have stayed away from I ended up getting the closest to.

Just from a few words it all made sense. I was always the odd one out in my pack being a white wolf. I guess this explains why

My mate is the goddam prince

As I try to process the information Ben just stared at me waiting for a reaction or response.

I was so deep in thoughts that it didn't cross me that everyone was watching us.

Thinking more and more I think that this can't be true. I feel no bond towards Ben. Yes he is very attractive but I feel no feeling for him

"Your lying" I stubbornly say

He has to be lying. He just has to be. Today was my great escape.

"Ve I Promise I'm not lying," he says In a sad yet calm voice

No-no-no. If this is true. I hope it's not. He knows all my plans to escape.

"I don't feel attracted to you at all. And saying my wolf if white and putting my in a black dress shows nothing" I reply my anger slowing raising

" them small things are quite big to the royal family and other higher class people. For generations it has been a strict tradition that only the prince and princess wear black to indicate the future rulers. And still to this day we have stayed with that tradition.   Including right now" Ben says with a small pause at the end.

I look up into his eyes to see how blue they were just like mine. Our eyes really did look-alike and he was truly beautiful. But at this moment in time anything to see that this is a lie would help. But sadly I saw only truth from him

I start to wiggle out of his tight  grip on my waist

"No" I whisper whilst a single tear floods down my check

"No no this isn't true. I'm not a princess. I'm not your mate. I'm not your anything" I say whilst I keep trying to run away from him.

Runaway from it all

"Ve please don't run please it won't get you anywhere" Ben pleads

"You are my mate. That makes you our princess. You have been since birth. This is what the moon goddess planned for you. I'm presuming you are stronger then the rest of your pack" he said whilst looking at me.

I slightly nod my head agreeing with him

"Yes your strong because your an alpha child but you are also mated to a royal since birth making you royal. Therefore it's only natural for you to be stronger than everyone else" he said looking at me.

I hated the fact that everything he said was as proving this to be more and more true.

After enough struggling I managed to get out of his tight grip on me and stared to quickly make my way to the nearest exit.

My trembling hands grab hold tightly of the cold metal handles of the door and push it open in a quick motion letting the freshness of the air surround me.

The coldness of the air relaxed me but didn't make me stop. I started to run towards the back gate that should be off guard only to see 6 guards in front of me.

I looked at them wide eyes are that all gave me a sympathetic smile.

My heart sank. There was no escape for me. The tears started to gather in my eyes as soon enough were falling all down my face. Only a few seconds later was big warm armed round my waist pulling me back against their chest
