Chapter 30: Wait… A God can have a Mate?

{No Name}

I was highly pissed off that the she- wolf named Sasha and Alpha Harry and Alpha Luke failed to capture Trinity and bring her to me. Not only did they fail, they got themselves killed! Not to mention High Council Member Maddie failed to convince the other High Council Member's that I didn't do anything wrong. She failed me for the fourth time!

The first time she failed me was when I got my birth name archived and changed to the ridiculous name that I have now. No Name, what type of name is that? The second time she failed me was when I wound up getting r*ped. I'll admit I had that one coming to me because I had done that to so many women in the past. The third time she failed me was when my ex-girlfriend and child got killed.

Now this is the fourth time she's failed me and the High Council wants me dead. But fine let Trinity come to me. They'll be giving me exactly what I want, which is her. I doubt that she'll be able to kill me but hey it wouldn't hurt to let her try.

So far the best way to get High Council Member Maddie on my side was to pretend to be her boyfriend. I was able to convince her that even though Trinity would be my wife, I was in love with her and not Trinity. That seems to be working so far and if I didn't know any better I'd say she truly loves me even though I don't love her. I should feel bad about taking advantage of her but I don't. That's mostly because I'm only focused on my goal which is spending eternity with the person I love who is Trinity.

At this time I had summoned High Council Member Maddie and because I'm her 'boyfriend' I call her Maddie and I called her to my room. As soon as she entered my room I jumped her like I was going to have sex with her and I took off her clothes and tied her to bed. I started to feel sort of horny so I decided to kill two birds with one stone, I could have sex and torture her for failing me yet again.

"Well someone's feisty today," Maddie commented.

I rolled my eyes. "You do realize I have you tied up right?"

She nodded. "Mhm and it's so sexy! I should get punished more often if I'd known it was going to be this sexy!"

That statement killed the mood. I looked at her hissed. "You have no idea how pissed off I am right now! The High Council wants me dead now!"

Maddie tilted her head. "Don't see this as a bad thing considering who they're going to send to try and kill you."

"Yeah I agree with you on that point," I said. "But knowing the Moon Goddess she probably has a trick up her sleeve to make Trinity succeed in killing me."

"She won't succeed no matter how many tricks she has! I'm going to make sure she doesn't succeed!" Maddie declared.

"Are you trying to get out your punishment?" I asked, "It's not going to work. I will punish you and then you can tell me what your idea is."

Maddie shook her head rapidly and I'm going to assume she remembered what happened the last time she tried to get out of her punishment when she failed me.

I nodded. "Good."

I got off her and went to my closet where I keep my torture instruments in them. I took out a knife and right after I cut Maddie with it I paused because I heard a strange voice in my head. Don't hurt her anymore!

Huh? What the fuck? Who are you? I snapped.

I'm your spirit voice and that is our mate you're messing with! You should feel bad for using her like that! The voice scolded me.

I rolled my eyes because no way in hell was I going to yield to some stupid voice in my head. Even if it was true that I had a mate that wouldn't stop me from hurting her if need be. The same thing goes for Trinity. If I have to hurt her to get my point across then I will.

I clenched my teeth. "You've got to be fucking kidding me!"

Maddie looked up at me with a pained expression after I took the knife out of her. It's a good thing Celestials heal fast because that wound would've put her out of commission and possibly in the hospital.

Maddie paused. "What's wrong?"

"There's no way in hell you're my mate!" I roared, "No fucking way!"

At first her eyes went wide in horror but after hearing what I said she had a smile on her face. "This is wonderful! Now you won't look at any other woman besides me! I forgot that some God's can have mates and it's about time you got one, that-"

"No!" I roared, "No way in hell do I have a mate! And even if it's true, I don't want you!"

I took a couple of deep breaths and calmed down. Okay, I need to think rationally about this. Why the hell would the High Ruler suddenly decide to give me a mate when he knows that that's no way I'm going to respect the mate bond?

It's about time you settle down. But your mate might wind up dying because you're going to die. That's what you get for being an asshole all your life! The voice in my head thought. If it was any other person I might feel bad for them, but no, the High Ruler decided to send me to you to let you know your fate. You have a mate and even if you start respecting the mating bond soon you both will die! Enjoy your time with your mate while it lasts.

Enjoy my time with her? Oh I'll enjoy my time with her alright! I thought. I was going to say something else but the voice in my head went quiet on me.

I smiled a wicked smile at Maddie. "Well, this is an interesting change of events. It doesn't matter Trinity will be my wife and you will be my mistress. I have a feeling Trinity will fight me every step of the way since she's married to her mate but I don't give a damn!"

Maddie seemed rather pissed and I don't blame her. "Why are you being such an idiot? You are the most evil person I've ever met! You're trying to destroy someone's happy marriage for your own selfish needs! How-"

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

"SHUT. UP!" I roared. I didn't give a damn if Maddie was angry and she was right about one thing, I'm trying to destroy someone's happy marriage just so I can make the woman of my dreams my wife.

Little did I know that the voice inside my head was right. I wouldn't have much time to spend with my mate because we were both going to die.

{Moon Goddess}

"Oh you are so mean, Your Highness!" I chuckled.

I was sitting in the High Ruler's chamber's living room having some tea with him and his wife. We were talking about the fact that the High Ruler got wind of what was going on with No Name finally. That fact is an eye roller in itself because the issues between No Name and I had been going on for over a decade! But now the High Ruler decided that he would send No Name a mate just to torture him.

He had a feeling that No Name wouldn't respect the mating bond but sometimes the mating bond changes people. A lot of times the mating bond changes people for the better and even if No Name changes it's too late his death sentence has been sealed.

The High Ruler laughed, "Yeah I'm sorry I didn't catch on to what No Name was doing until now but it this will be torture for him until the day he dies! It's a good thing he can't kill his mate. It's also a good thing that he doesn't have to mark his mate or accept his mate to complete the mating bond. I made sure of that this time."

We had a good laugh at that thought. But then I thought of something. "Why don't you want to have one of your children take the throne when you step down next?"

He sighed, "Because I'm ready to step aside and have someone else's legacy be tied to the throne. I've talked about it with my wife and son and they agreed with me. Although they don't really have much of a say in it regardless, I least wanted them to know what was going to happen in the future."

"You're not going to regret this later are you?" I asked.

He shrugged, "Not really and if I do I've made my choice and I'm not changing it."

His wife giggled, "That's exactly what I like about you my dear honeybun. You're very decisive and you know what you want and get it. You stick to your word even if you have second thoughts. You're VERY noble! If you ask me, that adds to your sexiness!"

I snorted when I saw the High Ruler's face turn red at his wife's display of affection as she praised him.

"Um… T-thanks honey," the High Ruler stammered.

I covered my mouth to stifle a laugh.

The High Ruler rolled his eyes. "That's not funny Ms. Moon Goddess!"

"Actually I think it is funny and adorable how you react to your wife's affections like that," I said. "It almost makes me wish I had a mate. But right now I have so much work to do."

As soon as I said that I kind of regretted it. I had a feeling that statement made the gears in the High Ruler's head start going. The thing about the High Ruler is that they have the power over every god in every universe. Even the god's that humans worship answer to the High Ruler. But even though I have the final say in sending mates for werewolves and other supernaturals the High Ruler has the final say in sending a god a mate. So if the High Ruler wants to send me a mate he can do that.

When a god or goddess gets a mate they don't have to accept them, mark them or mate with them to complete the mating bond. Thankfully, if a god doesn't accept their mate that mate won't die like when a werewolf gets rejected by their mate there's a possibility that they could die.

Anyway, once Trinity becomes the High Ruler that will be my biggest achievement ever! I mean it'll be weird answering to my creation but I kind of like the idea.

I have no idea what the High Ruler might have in mind or if he's going to send me a mate or not. I guess I'll just have to sit back and see what happens.

{Trinity}

After Chad and I sent Charlie to the After Realm to face judgment, things seemed to be a little bit easier with getting the rest of the spirits inside that prison out. So far we've succeeded in getting out ten more spirits so now there's sixty-one spirits left. The first spirit I ever summoned his name is Zach, he has agreed to be the last one to leave the prison. Honestly, if I didn't know any better I'd say he's sticking around out of his sense of 'duty' to me as a Guardian. It's that reasoning that gets on my nerves.

I mean why can't people do something because they want to and not because they have to? It doesn't make sense to me. I guess being a Luna for the Steel Armor means that I have a duty to protect my pack is doing something out of a sense of duty. But before I became a Luna I always protected my friends and loved ones by keeping them out of my problems.

For whatever the reason, today my Dad decided to take me to the training grounds where the knights were training with their swords.

"Okay why are we here?" I asked.

"Because you need to train with your swords to help you control your powers better," Dad answered. "And yes I know the Black Lotto Ceremony is coming up very soon. Don't worry you're such a fast learner I think you'll be able to take down twenty men just by using your swords! But no pressure, you don't have to be able to do that right off the bat."

I gave him a skeptical look. "Riight, sure no pressure!"

I heard Danger laughing inside my head. Yup! That's because you're superwoman! Don't worry I can lend you some of my strength but there's no way that I'm letting you shift, it'll harm the babies.

"I know that look when I see it Trinity!" Dad said, "You're doubting yourself again aren't you?"

I sighed, "I guess you can say that." Then I added, "But like you said, no pressure."

Dad went over to a young man who looked about my age and brought him over to where I was standing. "Trinity, meet General Alex, he's one the charge of the sword fighting unit."

General Alex bowed and said, "Your Highness it is such an honor to meet you!"

Dad cleared his throat, "General, I need you to pick ten of your best fighters. Trinity needs to learn how to fight with her swords in order to control her powers." He turned to me and gave me a look of concern. "If you start to feel bad let me know. Don't push yourself, okay?"

I nodded.

General Alex paused. "Your Highness, did you say that Princess Trinity needs to learn how to fight with her swords? As in more than one sword?"

Dad nodded. "Yup! She's a Doubled Knighted wolf! She's one of a kind, but please let me know if you think she's pushing it. She has a tendency to do that sometimes."

General Alex chuckled, "Yeah I understand. You know what they say: no pain no gain right?"

"Anyway, General Alex I need to have a word with you in private before you start her training," Dad said.

He pulled him off to the side and I have no idea what he said to the guy because General Alex couldn't stop freaking out until Dad slapped him. I couldn't help but find that amusing.

Once General Alex calmed down he went back over to me and said, "Alright then let's get started. And I do agree with his Highness that if you start feeling bad let me know and don't push yourself. It's not good for the babies."

The next thing I knew I was standing in front of five different people who were standing in attention waiting for General Alex to give his orders.

General Alex looked at me. "Your Highness the first lesson for today is you'll be learning your fighting stances and learning how to swordfight in general. Please summon your swords."

I nodded and did as I was told. The soldiers standing in front of me looked at me in awe. I raised an eyebrow. "What?"

General Alex chuckled, "They're looking at you like that because you're a Double Knighted Wolf! True, Knighted Wolves are common within the Celestial Kingdom but Double Knighted Wolves are rare. Although it doesn't really surprise that you're powerful because you are Prince Andrew's daughter and he's pretty strong in his own right."

I felt my face turn red at the compliment. He chuckled again, "Alrighty then, let's get started on your training."
