Rose's POV
"So, how have you guys been the past three years?" "We can see the changes, especially Rose. She looks like she just popped out from vogue magazine." "Right, she's so fit." They commented on our appearance as I was halfway through my dinner.
"Well, we met our best friend in the forest, who was there with the same intention of us being there. Rose's bestie Jessica, had quite skilled men with her as she was a part of a mafia or something and we learnt alot of stuffs from them. We had alot of fun during the training too." Tyler kept on explaining which I was effing grateful for because I had more time left to fill my stomach with food.
Tyler was done explaining and answering some of the questions when I was full and stuffed with food. Well, there wasn't much food left on the table anyway; the majority of them were in my stomach. I wiped my mouth, pretending like I was engaged in the conversation and I wasn't the one who finished all of the food.
"I didn't know Jessica would turn out to be related to mafia by any means. It seems like life truly is full of surprises." My mom said with a nostalgic tone. I looked at Tyler who was already looking at me and smiled at him.
"I am sure it is, mom. Shall we talk about business after dinner or right now?" I asked her as I prepared to tell them about me and Tyler being mates. I might have been a shy kid who kept our relation to ourselves but the training did alot of wonders to me.
I was ready to tell them and face the world on my own. Maybe the fact that Tyler was my mate and I had someone who would accompany me throughout the process encouraged me enough to come to the conclusion.
"I don't have any problem with us talking about it now." My dad said and Jack agreed with him. My mom and Jade shrugged in response and dad called for a maid, asking for her to serve the desserts.
"Well, first of all, I would like to tell you to introduce you guys to my mate." As soon as I uttered the word, 'Mate', their eyes bulged and they stood up from their seats, heating the poor table in response.
I couldn't continue my sentence as all of them surrounded me and started to bombard me with questions. On the other side of the table, I could hear Tyler chuckle and stuff his face with food; probably the desserts maids had served.
"GUYS!" I yelled at the top of my lungs which made them freeze on the spot and I took the chance to untangle myself from their grasps. I was starting to get tired of their dramatic asses. I wonder how they were even eligible to look after the whole species of werewolves.
"Do you really wanna know who my mate is or are you guys gonna continue this?" I asked them, frustrated, and all of them silently went to their seats, which made me roll my eyes as they were playing the victims now, making me look like the bad guy.
"Alright, so my mate is someone you guys are acquainted with, I am sure Jack and Jade know about this guy more than I do." As I said it, Tylor was smiling with mischievousness and others just looked at each other in confusion, which made me sigh at how clueless they could get.
"Tyler, do you know whose Rose's mate is? You guys have been staying together for years, I am sure you know who he is, don't you?" Jade asked his son and I had to resist myself from rolling my eyes. Do I really have to say it's their SON for them to get the hint? Haven't I been obvious enough? I am sure they saw us walking with our hands intertwined ever since we returned from training.
Tyler just shook his head and shrugged which made me shoot daggers at him. After that, everyone's eyes were on me in anticipation.
"How oblivious can you guys get? It's your son!" I said with my desperation clear in my voice and gasps were heard around the hall. Obviously, the maids were eavesdropping and the very next second, Tyler was attacked by the most oblivious parents of the world. He then shot me a 'Help me' look but I just shot him a kind smile and bit on the delicious looking cupcake.
"OMG! We are gonna be in-laws!" "OMG! We are going to be grandparents!" My mom and Jade's voice were loud enough to wake the whole world from their misery and I had to cover my ears at the nonsense phrases they were yelling at on top of their lungs.
A few minutes later, all of them calmed down and they sat on their seats with their hands on their lap and staring at us as if they didn't shout at the top of their lungs merely ten seconds ago.
"So-" "When are you guys gonna get married?" My mom blurted out and others shushed her, letting me continue. I let out a light laugh and started to tell them about the little plan I had on my mind.
"Before we hold our wedding, I would love to stabilize the kingdom and have a bit more time for us to enjoy. I am sure it's going to be chaotic the very moment we tell them about the truth we have all been hiding from them for a few years. We must be prepared to face the consequences of keeping it from them.
I am afraid we must be ready to face some of the werewolves turning their back on us. But I promise that I won't let you guys down and look after the kingdom with all my might. So, I guess my coronation and declaration comes first before anything."
All of them turned serious the very moment I started to talk about my plans and I was grateful they weren't as childish as they were a few minutes ago. When I was done, all of them nodded their heads in understanding and all of them were pondering about it for a few minutes.
"I agree with Rose. We mustn't have kept things from people who trusted us whole-heartedly. I have no objection towards Rose and starting from this very moment, I am gonna pledge to the whole world that I will do my best to serve her as my queen." Jack's solemn words echoed throughout the hall and I smiled gratefully at him.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it but I am just doing the things I am supposed to do as the heir. I am gonna need all of your guidance so I look forward to our collaboration to strengthen the werewolf kingdom." I could feel the proud stares of my mom and dad and I shook hands with Jack and Jade with a grateful smile on my face.
I am sure I will do a great job in building the empire for the betterment of people with them helping and standing by my side.
