Chapter Fifteen – Lose Appetite
Killian's POV
The way my mate emphasized the "second daughter of a smaller kingdom" sounded like she didn't see herself as more than that.
And why did she keep mentioning her awful older sister? Would she want such a person with me? Did she think her sister was better suited for me than she was?
I let go of her hand and looked towards the light coming from the window. She might not be confident in her position here because of how suddenly it happened.
Her father needed a way to thank me after saving them, and I knew my mate didn't like where she was, so I asked for marriage with his second daughter immediately.
Everything aligned for me perfectly, but not for her, so it made sense why she questioned everything and assumed I hadn't made my decision yet.
She was my mate, and for some reasons I couldn't place, but had to endure, she couldn't feel the mate bond, and her wolf's scent was really faint.
