Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott by J Belladonna

Chapter 99

I followed his gaze as his brows furrowed and he pinched the bridge of his nose,
something that he did when he was running short on time or he was frustrated
with shipping. I found Owen's pale body returning to its normal color and the
black scars which looked like burnt roots of trees on his back had vanished.

“He is recovering,” My Mom's voice startled me. I didn’t expect her to come here
at this hour. It was past midnight and I had already asked my Beta to announce
that the celebration was over.

Tilting my head to see her. I found a plate of food in her hands and a weary
expression on her face. “You didn't eat,” she uttered in a low voice as if she was
scared I would turn her away. After spending years without her, how could I do
this to her?

“Um, excuse me,” Prescott cleared his throat, turning to leave and give us the
privacy but Mom held his wrist and stopped him.

My heart thundered as I watched him looking at my mother with baffled
expression rather than angry as I had presumed as no one would dare stop him.
Well, I was the exception, of course. The thought alone made me giggle in my
head.

“I didn’t bring food for her alone, you also didn't eat, Alpha Prescott,” Mom said
softly, gazing at her son-in-law with motherly affection. He swallowed hard, not
knowing how to respond. He grew up without his mother so it must have been
hard for him.

“There is no need for that You don’t have to do that for me,” he hesitatingly
spoke, not bothered by the fact that Mom stopped him.

She let go of his hand and offered a warm smile to him. “I insist, Alpha Prescott. I
have no intention of taking the place of your mother but you can treat me like
your mother as I'm your mate's mother,” she sincerely said and Prescott smiled
back at her, giving in to her request.

“I'm grateful,” he nodded his head and all of us sat on the small dining table in
Owen's room. Sadly, we could do nothing for him except wait for him to heal and
wake up.

Mom mind-linked the maids and they brought us more food and served us. A
wide grin appeared on my face when I saw spaghetti with meatballs and risotto
with onion, garlic, and a walnut-ricotta pesto. Prescott dug into his baked pasta
with minced beef and veggies while Mom watched us cating like we were
starved.

We were big wolves, we had a big appetite and after all the drama, I was
famished.

“You used to love risotto and meatballs when you were a kid. I had to feed you
myself or else you would feed your clothes,” she giggled, remembering the
memories of the past.

“I wondered why you stopped cooking my favorite dishes for me but now it all
makes sense,” the words came out of my mouth before I could contemplate. Hurt
flashed in her eyes and I felt guilty

for reminding her of how she was away from us.

“I'm

so jealous of you. All I had to eat was my father’s burnt food or the food that
chefs made for us,” Prescott pouted, trying to ease up the tension I had
unwittingly built around us.

“Don't tell me that's why you learned to cook,” I pointed out to which he smirked.
“I wasn't a spoiled Princess so had to learn all on my own unlike you, who got
everything served on a silver plate,” he mocked me, taking a bite of his chicken
wraps.

“You're so annoying,” I grunted and resumed eating my risotto. Only if he knew
how hard my father was on me while growing up to train me to become the Alpha
Queen. I missed him though he hadn't been good to me lately, I couldn't help but
miss how he used to be so caring and loving until 1 turned to the age of training.
After that, he never looked back and treated me like a project that he had to
accomplish. I wondered where he was now and did he missed us or was
enjoying his life away from us in the human town.

Prescott had found out from his human connections that he was renting a place
in the town and

King in a company as a finance manager. Did he give up on his family and duties
and tun a

blind eye to us?

I wanted to meet him and question him but Mom refused me to go there as the
people needed me here and she wanted her mate to be happy wherever he
wanted to reside.

We finished the food and sat beside Owen, discussing the safety precautions we
needed to take while dealing with Dylan. Caleb was reporting back and forth to
us about that asshole, surprisingly, he was just sitting in the cell, not even trying
to escape for once.

“The elders and council members were eager to see your marking ceremony
more than your coronation ceremony as they believe that your pair is chosen by
the Goddess to rule over us and lead us as you both are the most powerful and
blessed wolves so everyone has accepted both of your as their King and Queen
from their hearts but after the news of our mate bond's severing broke out, they
needed to be assured that their King and Queen would still choose each other as
mates,” Mom explained the uation and I heaved a sigh of relief after knowing that
she wasn’t aware of my stu pid choice of throwing myself as an offering to that ba
sta rd to stop this war.

Thanks to Avery, she didn't tell Mom anything about it. My little sister who was
once playful and naughty had turned into a mature and responsible wolf. Perhaps
it was all because of the pressure of taking over Owen's position.

“After your sudden disappearance from the celebration, everyone was worried
but when Caleb announced that you wanted a private marking ceremony this
time, they were relieved,” she supplemented, reassuring me. “Dylan's arrival for
tonight was pretty unexpected but it all makes sense why both of you escaped
without notifying anyone.”

H

Oh, so that's what Avery told everyone and they bought it. The timing was quite
good.

Chapter 99

“Private marking ceremony, huh?” Prescott passed me a teasing look and I had
to roll my eyes to stop myself from blushing.

“I think

you should go for a rest now and have your marking completed as soon as
possible as tomorrow is the Red Moon again and I'm sure that Dylan will try to
escape soon because he wants to claim his powers and complete the crowning
ceremony tomorrow,” Mom suggested, rising to

her feet.

Heat crept up to my cheeks as I felt Prescott’s piercing gaze on me. I cleared my
throat and said, “Then, we must not let him escape and claim the powers that
would make him more powerful than he already is.”

All of us left Owen's room after warning the guards to stay on alert all the time.
Owen couldn't be killed because Avery hadn't officially taken over his post but we
couldn't trust Dylan. He was a lethal monster who had no boundaries and he
might be capable of killing Owen, we couldn't risk that.

“Alpha, Luna, a witch is asking for permission to enter the territory, the guard who
was in charge of the southern border mind-linked us when Prescott was closing
the door behind him and I was taking my earrings off.

“What's her name?’ Prescott asked.

“Riya,’ he replied and Prescott told him to let her enter.

“If Dylan could come inside the pack territory without permission, why couldn't
Riya enter?” I asked, feeling something wrong about this.

“There is only one hour left in the dawn. We need to complete our marking
ceremony to get the blessings from the Moon Goddess and the powers to fight
that b asta rd.” Prescott encased his arm around my waist and plopped his chin
on my shoulder, looking into the mirror.

“You're right,” I smiled at him and he turned me into his embrace, holding my chin
and making me look up.

“Witches are powerless in this place and I already know that it's not Riya
because she isn't responding to any calls or texts so I'm worried about her safety
but whoever this witch is, I have a feeling that she or he knows that Riya helped
us.” His voice was calm yet firm, he cupped my cheeks and I melted in his touch.
“Don’t worry, baby. I have already asked Jericho and Serena to go there and
keep an eye over that witch,” Prescott assured me and I smiled at him, nodding
my head in approval.
