“mate!’

“mate!’

It rings in his ear angering him.

Emperor Dylan grip her hand and toss her down on the library table as he pinned his elbow on her neck.

"I don't have a mate who is a rogue!" He said as he tighten his elbow on her neck.

"And you better start talking to lessen your pain, make it easier for me and you, why are you here?" He asked not breaking eye contact.

"I was send on a mission." Emily said.

"Kill you and bring this pack down." Emily said without a hint of fear or remorse.

"Aren't you scare, I might decide to kill you." Hr said making Emily scoff.

"Wouldn't it be blissful, I dead in the hand of my mate." Emily said with a shrug making him frown.

"I want to know the truth, that's why am here too." Emily said, he look at her puzzled.

"What truth are you talking about?" He asked confused

"What happen two hundred years ago?" Emily asked making him frown.

"Why are you asking?" He asked looking suspicious at her.

"There was a bloody war between shadow pack and moon pack causing the death of my parents." Emily said.

He remove his elbow from her neck stepping backward.

"Two hundred years ago." He repeated searching through his memories.

"Yes, if I remember correctly, you weren't on the throne yet." Emily helped him, he nodded looking away, he walk toward the nearest window, his peep through looking st the guards walking to and fro guarding the mighty gate.

"Yes I wasn't!" He said finally.

"Before the late alpha passed on, he made prince Vince the alpha, due to alpha Arthur's jealousy and hatred, he started the war yo over thrown alpha Vince using his weakness." Emperor Dylan said making Emily to halt.

"His weakness!?" She asked.

"He fell in love with h a witch which was against the law governing both wolves and witches." Dylan stop when Emily stop moving since there was no space, her back was already touching the wall.

"Why can't witches and wolf fall in love?" Emily asked with a frown at the stupid ideal.

"It's the law and it's meant to be obeyed." He said talking his back at Emily.

"I.....

"Don't trust so easily, some person's are not worth it." Alpha Dylan.

"I want to be by your side, I don't want to leave here." Emily said walking to his front, she grip his hand in hers.

He stare at her before removing his hand from her hold.

"I don't need you by my side, when did I say I need a rogue to be my Luna!" Alpha Dylan asked with a scoff before passing Emily.

Emily heart squeeze in pain, she pray that wasn't a rejection, or she might die!

"I...I can't stay far from you, please don't reject me please I...
