My Mate Sent Me To Prison I Return As His Nightmare novel Chapter 33

"My mate hated us, her whole life she was raised to despise my family and that didn't change when she discovered I was her mate," he shrugged. I held his hand and he looked at me with an emotion I was unfamiliar with.

"My wolf despised me and hated me... I know, son of a bitch so I left, I couldn't risk anyone knowing I had no wolf, and my father would make me prey just to distract Wyatt so I left," He sighed, running his fingers through his tousled hair. 

"Wyatt hated me for leaving him alone, I was his older brother and he expected me to have his back even if it was just that time. I came back a year after the war was won, I knew Wyatt will win, he was determined and stronger for his age," he said the last part with a small smile. He was proud of Wyatt. 

"He took charge of everything, even the parliament wanted him as king even though they hated our bloodline, and my wolf resurfaced again," 

"Why?" 

"He was just angry at Wyatt for taking what's ours and he transmitted that anger to me. We challenged him and lost," 

"And your wolf disappeared again," I whispered, he nodded and my heart hurt for him. He must have been in pain at his loss. 

"Your wolf had issues but he'll come back if he did before," I grumbled and he nodded.

"Yes, but for now, I have Wolf," he gave his pet a few scratches. 

"Does anyone know you have no wolf?" I asked. 

"Wyatt's inner circle and Mila know about it so you can't tell anyone," he said 

"I won't," I gave him my word. 

"I'm sorry about everything that happened, Azriel," I told him sincerely. 

"Let's go inside, it's getting... Chilly," he said and I followed him in. He still looked vulnerable, he gave me a faint nod and I went up, first to Lucas' room. I was told he had just finished eating and gone to bed. 

"Luca," I called gently. 

"Hmm," he mumbled.

"Good night, buddy," 

"Good night," 

Wyatt's POV

"I can't believe you haven't told her about Rachel," Mom scolded, glaring at me. I sat back down and brought my hand to my face. I wanted to tell her the truth but every time she looked at me with those innocent eyes of hers, I couldn't produce any words. 

"Her wolf needs to accept that you rejected her and then it will fade, it takes time but it will," she said, and I nodded. We couldn't risk a war right now with the dark wolves targetting us. 

"But you need to tell Adira about Rachel, the blue moon is upon us in a month and she will expect you to mark her once she shifts," 

"Can I just tell her once Rachel's mark fades?" I asked, I don't want to hurt Adira, not when we are getting along so well. I'm scared she'll see me in a different light, a liar and I don't want that. 

"You're setting yourself up for failure then, Wyatt. She will be hurt but she will heal and you will be free of any secrets," 

"Her former pack hurt her, Mom, they abused her and did so much emotional damage, I just don't want her to associate me with any painful memories," I confessed. 

"And Azriel," Aspen asked. 

"he knows the consequences of telling her," I said. I spoke to him earlier about it and he understood it's my truth to tell. He gave me his word that he won't say a word to her, hopefully, he keeps it. 

"So you plan to keep Adira in the dark?" Asked mom. 

"I'll tell her eventually but after I settle everything and she can come to the palace as my official Queen, without anyone questioning her status," I explained my plan.
