Sold AS The alpha King's Breeder

“Jessica! Jessica! Jessica!” I called after my girlfriend as she dashed towards the forest. I could see her golden locks glistening in the moonlight, and her yellow dress got stained with mud as she ran. Some kids from the crowd saw the commotion and followed us, but I chose to ignore them. Jessica was all I could think of.

“Get away from me!’ She shouted, suddenly turning around and shoving me. I saw the devastated and angry look in her eyes. I could not help feeling terrible when I looked into her eyes. She was beautiful, and she has been my only mate. I was so sure she was my mate until I experienced what I experienced just now.

“Listen, Jessica,” I said, panting as I tried to explain my behavior. “I don’t know what came over me. It was an inexplicable attraction that was coming from that girl. I don’t know who she is, and I would never cheat on you. I just couldn’t resist this. I’m sorry, Jessica.”

Her face was red and puffy. Her makeup had run down her cheeks. She seemed to soften a little when she heard my words, but she still seemed distraught. She stretched out her hand, grasped my hand gently, and squeezed it before she released it again.

“You’re the Alpha, Triton.” She said simply as she dabbed her face gently with a handkerchief. “You will know your mate without any mistakes or second guess. You seem to have found your mate. I can’t standby and watch you do it, though.”

“Jessica, listen, I don’t even know if I did,” I said slowly as I looked into her eyes pleadingly. “Don’t give up on us so easily. We have so many years together, and you’re the only mate I’ve ever had. And, will ever need.”

She smiled at me sweetly and touched my cheek. She gazed at me for a very long time until she finally let go of my cheek and turned, and walked away. I was going to go after her, but something held me back. The nagging feeling hit me and held me back from going after her. I was starting to think she was right. Maybe my real soulmate was inside the Moon Goddess ball. If she was, though, I did not want to meet her. Not tonight. All I wanted was Jessica. But, I knew deep down inside that she was right. She wasn’t for me after all.
