"Are you asking him to pursue my sister?" Alie still looked a bit surprised.
"Well, I was only encouraging him," Gabriel replied. He pulled out the phone from his pocket. "You two should continue," he said and left.
"Zander, I also want my sister to start living. But I don’t know how to convince her. You must be wanting to help you," Alie said, keeping a serious face.
"But you’ve already talked to her. I thought if you might talk to Flora, she would consider moving forward," Zander stated. "But I’m not in a rush. I can wait for her as much as she wants to," he affird, a small smile spreading on his lips.
"I’ll see what I can do, but I can’t give you a word that Flora will definitely consider your feelings," Alie didn’t assure him fully.
"I understand completely. You’re not wrong when you say people might question too, how can I bring Flora as my mate to the pack? It can even bring turmoil and more difficulties to Flora. I’ve to make sure they first see as the best Alpha for them. Though they trust , I still need to be sure that my choice of Luna will be respected by them too."
Alie smiled as she nodded her head slowly. "You have always been thoughtful. If the Moon Goddess wants the bond between you both to exist, then it will definitely happen," she stated.
"You’re right!" Zander agreed with her. "Alie, for a while, I’m curious to know why I’m sensing an Alpha she-wolf from you."
"Because I’m an Alpha," Alie answered. "It’s a long story. You can say my wolf was caged inside ," she added.
"That’s shocking!" Zander exclaid and smiled. "You had to undergo so much just because you were an oga in the others’ eyes. You were destined to et Gabriel, your true fated mate. I am sorry for not being able to help you when you needed it the most."
"It’s fine, Zander. You were rely following the orders from Alex at that ti. Besides, you chose to protect my family when Alex decided to end them. That itself explains how much uprightness you hold in your heart," Alie stated.
"Alie, what are you doing here? I got to know from a servant–" Katelyn abruptly stopped upon seeing an unknown man in the hall.
Zander imdiately left his seat and greeted the princess.
"This is Zander, Red River Pack’s Alpha," Alie replied.
"Oh. Wait, I think I do know you. But I’ve forgotten," Katelyn said. "I’ll leave you both alone. See you later, Alie."
She quietly made her way out while mumbling, "I thought Alie stopped talking to everyone who belonged to that pack."
As she crossed the Northern corridor of the castle, her head collided against sothing solid, but not hard.
"Can’t you walk straight?" Katelyn yelled and saw Karn as soon as she lifted her head.
"I’m sorry, Your Highness," he apologized, bowing his head.
"It’s fine," Katelyn said. "What are you doing here? My brother isn’t with Alie."
"Prince Gabriel is ahead near the fountain," Karn answered.
"Oh. Go ahead then," Katelyn replied, giving him the way.
Karn walked past her while she turned to look at him. ’Will he turn back?’
"Why are you gazing at him so intensely, Princess?" Sage’s voice fell on her ear, and she quickly turned around.
"What are you doing here?" She was flustered and placed both her hands on her cheeks.
"The King called to the palace," Sage answered. "He said his soon-to-be son-in-law should co a day before the wedding."
Katelyn rolled her eyes at him. "I’ve not said yes to you yet."
"You will soon," Sage replied.
"You know, over-confidence can beco the reason of your downfall," Katelyn remarked.
"That’s why I only stay confident," Sage stated.
"I told your father I would be bringing Katelyn, so let’s go." Without her response, he caught her hand and walked her with him.
"You can let go of my hand," Katelyn said. When he didn’t reply, she turned silent too. Finally, they were in the main hall of the palace, where everything seed chaotic.
"Your father is in the garden," Sage stated and they made their way outside.
They found Raidan seated on a chair.
"Your Majesty, sorry for making you wait too long," Sage said, bowing slightly and letting go of Katelyn’s hand.
"Dad, why did you call ? And I thought the guests will co tomorrow," she pronounced.
"Sage isn’t just a guest," Raidan stated, glancing at him and smiling.
"But he’s not either a part of this family," Katelyn said in a low voice. She looked at the magazine and furrowed her brows together before grabbing it to read.
"What is this?" Her eyes widened seeing the headline along with her and Sage’s image. It was from the city they visited to et their client.
"Princess Katelyn has found her fated mate!"
She read that headline and then gazed at Sage.
"Dad, it’s not true yet. I don’t know who clicked this picture," she muttered in fury.
"I know. I didn’t call you here for this. Sage, take a seat, please," Raidan gestured to the empty chair. He lowered himself and settled into it.
"Then why did you suddenly want both of us?" Katelyn asked.
"Tomorrow, many guests will be present. They may want to tell them the story behind this news. dia will be present too. So, I want to ask you what you’ll answer if they ask you."
"Ahh, I will tell the truth. Sage is my boss at work while I’m his secretary," Katelyn replied.
"That’s not how you answer when you are a princess," Raidan stated, frowning at her.
"Then, what am I supposed to answer? The truth lies there only."
"Kate, we are seeing each other. Don’t forget that part," Sage replied softly, turning his head to look at her.
"Yes, but it’s not official yet. So, why should I answer them with a lie?" Katelyn pressed.
"No one is telling you to lie. Just tell them that we both are seeing each other, but nothing is official yet," Sage stated. "Am I right, Your Majesty?"
"Yes," Raidan agreed.
