Chapter 127: I Will Only Mate With Olivia

“Matthew, is she Theodore’s former mate?” Seraphina wanted a clear answer, her voice trembling.

Victoria was also tense, her maternal instincts warring with pack politics.

“Yes,” Matthew’s reply shattered their remaining hope. His tone was as calm as if discussing pack patrol schedules.

“How did you explain marking her to the European Council?”

“It’s very easy, I acted first and informed them later,” Matthew said coolly. He spoke as if discussing the weather rather than a decision that could destabilize supernatural politics.

“You!” Victoria was nearly faint with anger, her wolf bristling with maternal outrage. “When I couldn’t find her background, I thought she was just an ordinary wolf pup born into a normal pack, living an ordinary life, until you found her.”

“Having no records was a good thing for security. I never imagined her background was like this, Once mated with an

Alpha, and even had such a big son! What on earth are you thinking?”

Aside from the drama when he broke his engagement with Cynthia Mooncrest, she and Barrett Kane had never had to

worry about Matthew’s decisions. She never thought that now, her typically calm and composed son would drop a

bombshell, revealing that he too had a rebellious side.

“We allow you to dissolve the engagement with Cynthia, because we understand you, that for an Alpha, the destined mate

is above all else,” Victoria suppressed her rage. She knew that tears and threats were useless against an Alpha King.

“But you can’t just go and claim a rejected, second–hand she–wolf! There are countless daughters from noble bloodlines.”

She glanced at Seraphina, hoping for support from her daughter.

Seraphina sat there, her feelings complicated and conflicted. While she didn’t want a rejected she–wolf as her brother’s Luna, if Olivia wasn’t marked by Matthew, her own chances with the powerful Theodore would be even slimmer.

But if Theodore’s former mate was permanently mated to another Alpha, Then he’ll give up, right? Will he see me then? The thought flashed through her mind. Suddenly Olivia didn’t seem so detestable.

“You object to my marking?” Matthew glanced at his sister, his golden eyes holding a dangerous glint.

“I’m not opposing you taking a mate, I’m opposing you marking her,” Seraphina clarified. Though her voice lacked its usual

conviction.

Just then, Matthew caught the scent of moonlight and jasmine from the bathroom door. It was Olivia, and her appearance

made his wolf instinctually surge with a possessive satisfaction.

His voice was soft but carried the absolute authority of an Alpha King. “In this life, I will mark no one but her.”

“To oppose my mating with Olivia is to oppose my taking a Luna altogether. And I accept that consequence.”

Victoria’s face turned white with rage. “No Luna? Are you trying to let the Kane bloodline die out? Are you blackmailing

me?”

The thought of the royal line ending with her son was unbearable.

“We still have Seraphina,” Matthew retorted coolly. He picked up his intelligence files in a gesture of dismissal.

Although they all knew that Seraphina was incapable of ruling European territories. She doesn’t have Matthew’s political

acumen.

*Just wait! When your father comes back, we’ll settle this with you! Your father won’t approve of you being so willful!” Victoria roared angrily. “Let’s go, you useless thing.” She dragged her “useless” daughter away.

She swore that once Barrett Kane returned from his diplomatic mission, she would settle accounts with Matthew.

She would never allow this to happen.

The bathroom door opened, and the fresh fragrance of jasmine wafted out. Coincidentally, jasmine was his favorite scent, and for some reason, it smelled even sweeter on her skin.

Her damp hair caught the lamplight like spun silver. He looked at her, suppressing the restless wolf in his heart; he really wanted to kiss her fiercely.

“We need to talk,” Matthew said, placing the intelligence file on the coffee table. He had already declared he would mark

no one else; it was time to be completely transparent.

He didn’t want to hear the words ‘sever the bond‘ from her lips again.

He began carefully, “Aurora has believed since birth that I am her father, and the first word she learned to say was ‘daddy‘.

She has always treated me as her biological father.”

“For pups, it is not good to frequently change territories without a father’s protection during their early years.” His voice

was gentle, but the underlying possessiveness revealed his wolf’s sovereignty over the mother and pups.

Olivia pursed her lips, her grey eyes thoughtful. “I don’t plan on finding another father for Aurora,” she said quietly.

She meant that if they ended their arrangement, she wouldn’t give anyone else a chance to claim her or her daughter. The thought of another male near her pup made her wolf Zoe bristle protectively.

Matthew fell silent, finding the situation unexpectedly complex. A true mating couldn’t be forced, but every instinct told
