294-Close To My Mate.

Beatrice's POV:

’You brought her home?"

’Are you in your right mind?'

’Do you not remember why one of your brothers died and the other is in a coma?"

I woke up to a heated argument between what seemed likely to be Akin, Sofia, and Vasquez. Now that

I have taken a wholesome rest, I don't feel the bodily pain anymore. But that didn't mean I wouldn't

encounter crazy parents.

I rolled out of bed and realized I was only wearing Akin's coat. His scent was so mild and comforting

that I sat on the edge of the bed, sniffing his coat for the next two minutes.

'Take a good sniffy sniff, good morning!’ Ace, greeting me, almost took me off guard. I was not used to

her waking up with me.

'Don't tell me you forgot about me,' she said dramatically, 'Ah! So this is how morning feels after

transitioning,' she continued yammering, making me wonder how I am going to prevent her from

coming out without my pills.

'Are you forgetting something?' I raised a concern, waiting for her to stop playing and acknowledge the

problem we might need to deal with.

'What?' she scoffed at me for running her mood.

'Ace! You are not supposed to transform here. They will kill you,' I warned her, even thinking about

what will happen when we shift into our weredragon form.

'Don't worry. We are royalty. After our first transition, we will not transition for another twenty days, as

our bones need rest and all that bullshit. But remember, after that, we are free. So you better hurry and

leave for the Midwest,' she said, with an urgency in her voice that seemed valid.

'I will do something about it. Don't worry. I just need to find Maura and her mother,' as soon as I said

their names, I felt this burning sensation inside me.

Why? You are not taking them with us, are you?' I knew it. Ace wasn't very forgiving of others. I

assumed it was because she had inherited that royal ego from her ancestors.

'Can we talk about that and focus on this matter for now?' I said as I recalled the argument going on in

the living room.

'What about it? Let Akin take care of it,' she scoffed again, and I swear I was shocked. Ace was just too

much.

'Fine. She can stay here, but find her a new place soon. Don’t you see she is a cursed one? Death

follows her wherever she goes," Sofia yelled at her son, and it wasn't like she lied. I was beginning to

look like the cursed one.

’She will stay as long as I want. If you have a problem with that, you can talk to the council and let them

know you want to kick out the alpha king's mate," Akin calling me his mate made me close my eyes

and hug myself a little too gently.

'Oh! We should taste him someday, you know,' Ace made me roll my eyes at her.

'Where are Maddox and Zane?" Vasquez asked, ignoring the main subject.

Maddox went to get me some stuff while Zane came home drunk and tired. He is sleeping in his room,'

Sofia said.

It was weird how the two started talking to each other as if Akin weren't there.

'Make sure the two of them stay away from her room. She will try to persuade them to — or invite them

—,” Vasquez didn't have to finish what he was going to say, as I understood it.

'Not everyone thinks like you," Akin commented, but he specified little. I heard his father grunting, but

Akin had already walked towards the guestroom by now. He opened the door and got inside to find me

sitting on the edge of the bed with nothing but his coat on.

’I brought you some stuff," he pointed at the closet near the bathroom.

'Thank you for saving me last night," I uttered awkwardly, hugging myself to make sure Ace didn't pop

out our boobs. That would be embarrassing. It's not that he didn't see me naked last night, but it was

weird to think he saw me.

I have to say, I was rather shy when next to Akin.

’No problem. I had a feeling you were in trouble. My guard told me you didn't open the door when he

checked on you, so I rushed around-looking for you,' Akin stated, looking very tired.

I knew we hadn't talked about his wolf again, but it has to be the reason for his discomfort.

'I don't plan to stay here for too long. Your parents hate me and see me as the reason they don't have

their son with them. This place also reminds me of him, so I would like to leave as soon as possible," I

murmured, stealing eyes from him. My heart hadn't dealt with losing Helel. There was also this

obligation on my shoulders to rescue my kind, now that I knew I was their princess and they were

innocent creatures.

’I will get you a safer place," he said, but I shook my head at him.

"I want to be able to survive myself," I excused.

'You told me you transitioned last night, which means you either didn't take your pills or you didn't have

any left. Do you want me to get you the pills? Where did your mom use to get them from?" He ignored

my wanting to leave and focused on the pills.

Before I could answer him, the commotion outside stole our attention. We shared a glance before Akin

ran out of the room, and I followed him to see what was happening.

’Step aside," Maddox told the maid while making his way into the living room, carrying someone in his

arms.

’What happened to her?" Sofia gasped, watching him place the girl on the couch, "Is she alive?" she

kept asking while looking worried about the girl.

I peered through Akin's shoulders and recognized the girl as,

’Reign!" I uttered.
