[Unknown Person’s Perspective.]

Minutes ticked by and Rose remained unconscious, giving me time to take a closer look at her. She had long and curly blond hair, long and curly eyelashes, a cute little nose, and rosy lips. But her face was pale from the blood loss and the beating. She was certainly a beautiful woman. But I still couldn’t help but think of my first mate, the only woman who I deemed as the most beautiful woman in the world.

I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts in my head. To be honest, I shouldn’t be thinking about anyone else in the presence of my mate. The door to the infirmary was suddenly pushed open as Alex and his lackeys rushed in. He wore a coronation crown on his head. The succession ceremony must have been completed.

Alex yelled at me indignantly. “Get away from my mate!”

I was a little stunned. Rose was Alex’s mate? Then why did I sense that she was my mate as well? Moreover, a mercenary like Alex was willing to accept a wolf-less slave become his partner? Werewolves without wolves were extremely rare and were often deemed as trash.

“Alex, we’ve already rejected each other. You don’t have the right to say that I’m your mate.”

Oh, my mate woke up at the right time to solve this mystery.

“Rose, it was all my fault. I was too childish, that’s why I treated you like that. I swear that I’ll definitely treat you well in the future!” Alex took a few steps forward and tried to make physical contact with Rose. However, my Beta Patrick appeared and blocked his path.

“Stop dreaming. I would rather die than have you as my mate. You and your tribe are a bunch of despicable murderers, b*stards, and sadists. You will be punished!”

I saw tears welling up in Rose’s eyes and could easily empathize with her. After all, her tribe had been exterminated by New Moon Tribe. If it was me, I would have killed these beasts years ago. However, Rose had been helpless all this time. After so many years, she was lucky enough to not die from their enslavement.

“Rose, don’t you know what’s good for you? You’re a useless slave with no wolf. Why don’t you take a piss and see who else would want you!” Alex continued to shout, but I couldn’t listen anymore.

“Alex, stay away from my mate.”

“Edward, are you sure you want to accept a female werewolf without a wolf as Luna of your tribe? I don’t think your parents and your tribe will agree.” Alex raised his eyebrows.

“That’s between my tribe and I. What you need to do now is to get out and stay away from my mate. If she gets hurt because of you again, I’ll make your tribe pay back double.”

“Just you wait. Rose is my woman and no one can say otherwise!” Alex left before I could transform into a wolf. What a helpless fool. He didn’t even dare to fight me in front of the woman he wanted.

I turned around to see if Rose was better, only to be met with her big sparkling eyes looking at me innocently and suspiciously.

“Did you just say I’m your mate? Who are you?”
