Chapter 79
Ana.
As I stare at my mate, a sense of nostalgia engulfs me. We have been in this position so many times that I thought it would be enough for a lifetime.
Jace’s watery eyes softly stare at me. His unevenly beating heart is full of different emotions and I can’t help but feel pity. I want to hate him for not trying hard enough but my heart can’t even dream of doing that.
I love him so much to blame him for a mistake that was not his intention.
“Come” I stretch my right hand to him and my mate quickly stumbles to me. Jace falls to his knees in front of me and wordlessly buries his face into my lap.
I tightly hold his head when his b*dy starts to shake and I hate that he is hurting.
“I didn’t mean it. I know I should have done something but I chose to fail you once again” he cries holding me tighter as if I will disappear on him if he isn’t careful enough.
“Stop” I murmur, gently running my fingers through his hair. There was a time when I had
my doubts about Jace. But he showed me how sincere he is and it would be unfair if I pushed him away at his lowest.
“It was not your fault, babe. If anything, I am happy you came back to me” I sincerely mumble, pressing a soft k*ss on his head.
“Ana no, how can you not be mad? Please, hit me, yell at me, because I don’t deserve your kindness. I broke your heart again even after promising not to do again” My heart bleeds when I stare into my mate’s red eyes, and his breaking voice makes it worse. I feel what he is feeling and it’s nothing good. Jace is broken.
“I know what you will do to make me feel better” I whisper, using my thumbs to clear the water from his eyes. There are a lot of things that will help him retain his composure. I want the sad mood gone for a while. What matters is that he is okay and back to us. Hopefully, there are no more thirsty she-wolves after him.
“Anything, baby. I will do anything to earn your forgiveness” Jace frantically nods and I slightly smile as I peck him on the l*ps.
“Train me” I know my dad thought that I didn’t need training but I do. I can’t only depend on my wolf because when she is not here, I will become a laughing stock of a shi tty queen. I need to learn all the tactics there is in fighting and one able to handle a fight in both forms.

“What?” My mate’s voice quivers in shock and I laugh. What was he expecting me to say?
“You are the strongest wolf I know Jace. I love you so much and I trust you too. Please train me” I repeat my plea and my mate sighs returning his head to my lap.
“Baby, you don’t have to. You know I can protect you” His muf fled voice whispers. I return my fingers in his hair and he sighs and inhales deeply afterwards. His emotions are eventually calming down and I am glad I didn’t give him a hard time. are eventually calming down a
“No Jace, you are the reason I never trained and with everything that we have been through, I believe you agree with me that I need to get on the training ground and learn how to defend myself and anyone else. Very soon I will have a huge responsibility and I can’t fail the kingdom. Many wolves lost their lives and that of their loved ones. We can’t allow it to happen again” My voice takes a serious tone, causing confusion to appear on my mate’s face.
“What do you mean?” Jace looks up at me with deeply furrowed brows.
“My dad is about to retire. You know that right? And now that he got his second mate, I know he would want to get away for a while. We are succeeding him and I hope you know leaders aren’t meant to be weak” I explain without mentioning that my
dad no
longer trusts my mate.
If Jace finds out about my dad’s plan, he will feel more dejected than he is feeling right now. It’s all the same anyway. When I am queen, my mate will automatically be king. It doesn’t matter which bloodline he came from. It’s only that unlike before, Jace won’t be Noah’s heir.
“Okay, I will. Can I please hold you?” Jace begs and I nod without hesitation. My mate gets up and instantly lifts me from the couch, keeping me close.
Jace walks us to the bed and when we lay down, he gently positions his head on my chest and shuts his eyes.

ace.
I know Ana. Ever since we were kids, Ana would always act strong, especially when I was lown. She never liked seeing me hurt and my mate would do everything to make sure I lidn’t feel that way, even when she had to hide her own hurt.
That is what Ana is doing right now. She still has her emotions locked away which neans she doesn’t want me to feel them. I can’t reach her wolf either and mine is lawing at me to reach her.

Another weird thing, Ana is willing to train which is something she used to hate. This can only mean that my mate no longer has faith in me. Who would, when I kept failing them?
She had said she would take care of our family while I handled the throne. But her wanting to go to the training field only indicates that the King no longer thinks I am capable enough of succeeding him. No wonder he was cold to me earlier.
It doesn’t matter anyway, as long as I keep holding my mate like this for the rest of my life.
