Chapter 114

　　Alpha King Damon

　　Maia wilts like flower petals under my touch when I put my hand on her face but stiffens when I mention the word mate.

　　‘My kingdom has been waiting a very long time for their Luna and their Queen,’ I say. Her breathing is heavy, and she is starting to panic.

　　She is my mate. She should be just as excited as I am. I’m struggling to restrain my wolf, and here she is, reacting unexpectedly to our connection.

　　I tilt her head up with my hand under her chin, forcing her to look at me. Her mesmerising violet eyes stare into my wolf eyes, and I register her fear. She screams, then runs. Forest detritus, dirt, leaves, and twigs swirl around her as she runs, and I’m knocked backward by a strong gust of wind.

　　I am in disbelief and awe, wondering how she could do that with the wind.

　　I pull my clothes off and discard them in a trail, continuing the chase in wolf form.
