Princess Zara is 21 years old, and the only daughter of King Alan and queen Lyarra. She was asked to marry their enemy, King Carl of Everton in other to protect her nation Azrael and its people. ****** The princess was now standing in front of me. But she was not what I expected. In fact, to say I was disappointed was an understatement. Like what the fuck. I've heard stories about how beautiful and enchanting she was, but the woman standing in front of me was completely opposite from that description. I could also see the confused look on my council member's face, while Gwen who was also standing among the council members had a smirk. The woman standing in front of me was chubby. What the hell? I thought they said she was slim and slender. She even had a mole on her nose and when she smiled at me, I almost puked. She had a huge gap tooth and looked like a clown. Can someone put her out of my misery? I thought. It's a good thing I didn't go out to welcome her. "Greetings your highest," she said, and I almost died. Her voice was deep like a man's voice. So much for an angelic voice. Who the hell gave that description of her, I wouldn't hesitate to kill them if I find them. My eyes caught with another beautiful ocean blue ones, and I was lost staring that them. I scanned the face of the person, and it was so beautiful, like the most beautiful face, I've ever seen. The face was so small that it could fit into my palm. She was dressed like a boy, but I knew she was a girl. She had a smirk on her face as she looked at me. What, is she also laughing at my misery, I thought and scoff. Why can't she be the princess? I thought, sighing how unfortunate I am. There is no way I was marrying that ugly princess. "Greetings your Majesty," I heard the most angelic voice, I've ever heard said, and I glanced up to see the same beautiful face staring at me. "I'm princess Zara of Azrael," she announced, and everyone gasped.

Chapter 1 Decision

ZARA'S POV

"You'll have to marry king carl," dad said, and I looked at him like he had gone nuts.

" Dad you are are joking right, why would I marry king carl?"

King Carl was our enemy, ad he was very dangerous and ruthless. I've never seen him, but I've heard stories about him.

"Dad, I can't marry carl, not now not ever."

"You don't have a choice, my decision is final. I'm not asking you, I'm giving you an order."

"But dad, I can't believe you're willing to sacrifice me to that monster, how could you? I'm your daughter why are you treating me this way."

"This is not about you Zara, it is about our nation Azrael, and our people. If it means I have to sacrifice one person, for the good of others, I will do it, even if that person is my daughter."

But dad.....

"You're a princess Zara, you should know that you have a duty to your people even if it's hard, That's the price royalties have to pay. we don't live for ourselves but for our people, so I beg you to please understand that right now, your nation and your people need you."

I thought about what he said, I can't believe I'll have to marry that ruthless king. Why, why do I have to be a princess? I wish I was just an ordinary person, maybe that way, I'll get to live my life the way I want.

"I need some time to think about this," I said walking out.

"It needs to be quick Zara, there is no time and king Carl will not spare us if we don't ally," dad yelled after me.

I used to think that my case will be different, that I'll marry for love and not a marriage of convenience. But I guess it was just a dream.

I was just lying to myself, I'm a princess after all, I should have known better.

I walked into my room and closed the door behind me. My heart was broken, but I wouldn't cry. What's the point when my tears would change nothing.

I sat down on my bed thinking. I have to leave my home, my people, my family, and everyone I loved. If I was getting married to someone I loved, I wouldn't mind. But that was not the case.

I guess this is my destiny, and fate has played a cruel game on me.

I sighed, standing up from my bed. If this will be my last day here, I might at least have fun. I can't just sit here, thinking about my ill fate.

Lia, I called walking out of my room. Lia was my personal maid and my best friend and we've been friends ever since we were Little.

"Come, Lia, we are going out,"

"but your highness...

"Don't call me that Lia, we're best friends."

"Okay princess, are you okay?" she asked, I guess she was concerned because she found out about my marriage.

"I'm fine Lia, you don't have to worry about me. Now come let's go have fun, I said dragging her."

"You know, you are strange princess, if it were other girls in your place, they will be crying and worried, but you just want to have fun."

"I'm not other girls Lia, why should I worry and cry, when it would change nothing. Instead of worrying about what I can't change, I rather just go have fun and eat lots of food."

"You're crazy princess," she muttered, and I laughed.

"Let's go grab a horse," I said running, and Lia ran after me.

"Zara, you need to stop running or you'll get into trouble, Zara, she called and kept on chasing.

I rode my horse fast into the woods, loving the feeling of the wind on my face. Earlier I sneaked out of the palace with Lia.

I knew my parents would be worried but I didn't care, I needed to make the most of this day.

"It's dangerous out here, we need to go back," Lia said trying to convince me. but I didn't listen to her.

"I'm going to be married soon and maybe I won't be able to do this again, just stay quiet and come with me."

Seeing that I was not going to listen, she gave up and decided to go with me, after all, once my mind was set on something there is no way to convince me otherwise.

We rode to a stream and I quickly jumped down from my horse, running towards it.

"You're such a tomboy, Lia yelled, and I chuckled. It's was said that women are not supposed to use a sword or any other weapon.

But I would always hide and practices, I would even go hunting and the king would be so angry. He got tired of me and let me continue since it was in secret.

I took off my clothes diving into the water, Loving the way the water felt against my skin.

"How can you swim naked? You're a princess what if someone sees you? you're just so crazy, and I've never met anyone as crazy as you princess."

"Come on Lia, don't be a spoilt sport. just come into the water, I yelled.

Lia looked around to make sure no one was there before taking off her clothes and jumping into the water. We swimmed for a long time, and it was dark when we got back to the palace.

We sneaked in through the back like thieves and both ran to my chambers.

Immediately we walked in, we saw the queen and flinched. What is she doing here? I thought.

mother never comes to my chambers she always sends for me. is it something urgent? I thought.

"Where have you been?" Mother asked in a stern voice.

I racked her brain for what to say. I can't tell her I sneaked out to have fun. I turned to Lia for help but it looked like she was also out of excuse.

"I know you sneaked out again. How could you be so careless? What if something happens to you, what if you got captured by the enemy? And you, she said pointing at Lia. you suppose to stop the princess from sneaking out how could you encourage her behavior."

I could see the queen was furious and I immediately stepped in to defend Lia.

"It's not her fault, it's mine. I was the one who forced her, even though she was against it, she didn't have a choice.

The queen sighed, knowing who I was, she knew no one could talk me out of it.

"You're so reckless she muttered pulling my ears playfully, she just couldn't stay angry at me.

NEXT DAY

The king summoned me and my heart was raising.

"Zara, have you thought about it, did you make your decision?" he asked, immediately I entered his chambers.

"I've made my decision dad, I will marry king carl."

He looked at me, giving me a sad smile.

" I'm sorry Zara, I have to choose the people over you."

"It's fine dad, you are a king and you need to make hard decisions sometimes, You don't have to feel guilty, I understand."

"Thank you, he muttered, patting my hair."

"You should get ready Zara, you have to leave the day after tomorrow."

She was hurt. She was bullied and made fun of. And the only hope that kept her going was finding her mate. She has always been weak. Weak to the world. Why? Because she was a lantern. She didn't have a wolf. That's what everyone thought about her. When she found her mate, he wanted her to be his slut and not a wife. She might be an omega, but it doesn't mean she will take disloyalty and betrayal lightly. So she did something that no one in history ever did. She rejected an Alpha. "I, Alexis Clark, reject Brandon Sterling, the alpha of Black mist pack, and consider myself a free soul until I decide so."; Were her last words before she left that torturous place and became a rogue. A rogue that everyone was fearing and finding. Why? Because she was the rogue that has become one of the biggest problems of almost all the packs in the country. She was Alexis Clark. A rogue that rejected an Alpha, stealth food, kill other rogues, and more than that was living with humans and studying with them. What will happen when her case is given to the world's most dangerous alpha, Sebastian Sinclair, who has taken it upon himself to punish this rogue. The one who hated rogues and omega to a level that was beyond understanding. Why? Because his mate was an omega, who betrayed him with a rogue before dying. How will Alexis tackle this alpha, in whose College she was studying and living under hiding for almost a year? What will Sebastian do when he finds out the new girl he had been talking to is none other than the rogue omega that he had decided to kill?
