Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott by J Belladonna

Chapter 25
Gabriel
The anger and hatred I had seen in her purple eyes for me on her coronation day
wasn't present anymore. Her eyes were soft and pitiful which was a plus point for
me.
It would be easier for me to convince her to get back together. I just had to wait
for a proper chance to talk to her.
“Can I please get some finance help? I want to go to the human town and live
among them,” I pleaded, looking at Prescott.
If 1 wanted to have her, I didn’t need Prescott’s attention on me so I avoided
looking at Matilda.
“You'll have to hide your identity,” Prescott said, “Just because you saved my wife
from Vincent, I'm letting you stay here till you recover. Then, you'll be provided
with money for a week's expenses and travel expenses.
“Thank you so much, Alpha King,” I bowed to him.
“Please, meet me for once, Matty.” I wrote it down on paper, handed her without
being noticed by everyone else, and left from there.
A nurse gave me medicines and food and I slept on the hospital bed to take
some rest. I would convince Matilda to come with me and we will escape from
here together as soon as possible.
My wounds were healing from the herbal soup I was given. I could easily shift
and run with those wounds.
“Alpha Prescott is kind enough to let you stay here, Gabriel,” Matilda's bitter voice
fell in my ears and I got up from the bed.
I tried to hug her but she took a few steps back. “Stay away from me. Don't touch
me.”
“Why, Matty? What's wrong? You love me and I love you. Please, forgive me for
my past. mistakes. Let's escape together and start a new life in the town,” I said
in excitement, holding her hands in mine but I missed the sparks.
The bond between us
was ended so I couldn't feel the sparks in my body after touching her. I missed
those sparks./
She retracted her hands and looked at me with a poker face. “You're too late. You
never loved me and I would rather die than escape with you again. I can't forget
how you betrayed me and took advantage of me while I loved you.”

“I loved you, too, Matilda. I was just blinded by the rage and revenge that Vincent
had put into my mind,” I said, defending myself.
“You didn’t love me. You loved Isabel. You abused me and let everyone else in
your pack abuse me. You were going to marry Isabel because you loved her, not
me,” she accused, locking me dead in the eye.
“You have changed, Matty. The girl I knew loved me so much that she would
understand me and forgive me,” I pressed my lips, feeling dejected.
She giggled sarcastically. “I had to change to protect myself from the liars like
you. not a weak she-wolf anymore.”
“I'm not a liar, baby,” I whispered after tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.
I'm
I cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead. “When I said I love you, I fu*king
meant it. I had to fight my feelings for you and my wolf always craved you.”
Matilda smiled tauntingly before putting her hands on mine and forcing them to
move. away from her face. “You kept Isabel as your Mistress, Gabriel. She
abused me, hit me, hurt me and you never cared about me. You didn’t crave me
when you were fu*king her. Now that I have become the Alpha Queen and got
over you, you want me back?”
A rueful chuckle escaped through her lips. “I hate you, Gabriel.”
“No, you love me. You still love me,” I held her arms and shook them. “I saw how
much you were hurting when Prescott expelled me from the pack. You still care
about me. You still love me.”
“Let go of me or I'll rip your hand from your body,” she growled, warning me, and
the strong aura she rolled off forced me to let her go.
“I was confused if I still had feelings for you but then, I realized that it was just
pity. You used me for your revenge and Vincent used you for his revenge. I know
how it feels to be just a pawn in someone’s game,” she said gloomily.
She was smarter than I had given her credit for. “This is love, Matty, not pity. I
saved you from Vincent because I love you. We'll be together finally after going
through all those shits.”
“You saved me because you wanted to impress me and my Alpha. We're never
getting back together,” she spat furiously.
“I'm sorry. Vincent had manipulated me and I believed his lies,” I kneeled in front
of her. “Please, don’t punish me like this. I can't live without you.”
My mate scoffed, “Your sorry can't fix anything. Suck it up and leave this pack.”

“What should I do to get your forgiveness? I'll do anything for you, baby,” I
begged her. “You escaped from your arranged marriage for me, Matty. You'll do it
again for your first love, won't you?”
“That was the biggest mistake of my life. Alpha Prescott was my destiny. I should
have accepted my fate and rejected you,” she folded her hands and stared out of
the window with a smile.
“You're my mate. You can't accept Prescott. I can still smell your pure lavender
scent and there is no mark on your neck. You haven't marked or mated with him
because you love me,” I told her and she looked at me in disbelief.

I played my last card. Matilda didn't say anything but the rigid expressions on her
face
hurt me.
“You're just obsessed with me. I'm not your mate anymore so don’t wait for me,”
she said coldly before turning her heels on. I had to wait for the right time.
I took some rest and then, headed towards the woods, hoping to find Matilda
there.
“Hello, friend,” a she-wolf flashed a smile at me. “Why are you leaving so soon?"
“Who are you?” I asked her. I hadn't seen her before.
“I'm Phoebe. My witch friend can help you get what you want,” she smirked.
