Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North

"What the meaning of this, Zander?" Lance asked, he came directly toward the king when he heard what happened. "How could you send my mate away?"

Zander dismissed the representative from Holy Kingdom and faced his royal gamma. "Just because I have been nice to you, you could disrespect me in front of other people."

Lance immediately lowered his head, realizing his mistake. "My apologized for my action, my king." He balled his fists tightly. He couldn’t compose himself when he heard that Celine would go with Zenith to the north. She would replace Aurel’s position as the healer for him and helped with the treatment. "But, I need to know why you have to choose Celine to be sent to the north? She is my mate, she should be with me."

Zander gestured for Lance to follow him, so they could find a quiet place to talk. "She was the one, who came to me and suggest this."

"You can reject the suggestion." Lance didn’t seem surprised, his gut feeling told him that Celine had been wanting a way out. "She is my mate, you know how the mate bond worked, right? You can’t separate a mate from one another."

"Have you taken some time to think about this matter, Lance? In that case, why would Celine take the initiative to be away from you if you thought the mate bond between you is strong?"

"We only face some problem. It’s nothing."

Zander tilted his head. "Lance, you have been my royal gamma for a few years now and truthfully speaking, I am disappointed with you for the way you treated your mate."

"I treated her nicely."
