Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne
Chapter 81

Chapter 81 I think I got it.

Doris followed Enzo back to camp and tried not to seem obvious she was looking around forWilliam. The villagers glanced at her curiously as she passed but said nothing. She was quite positivemost of them still didnt like her and were only tolerating her presence. Not that she blamed them,she supposed. It wasn't easy to allow outsiders in especially when you were taught not to trust themyour entire life. It was clear the villagers felt uneasy whenever one of the royal party was nearespecially William himself. They looked to Enzo for guidance and his ease calmed their fears justenough but it still lingered on the surface of every expression they made. “Would you like to join mefor dinner?” Enzo asked, snapping Doris out of her racing thoughts. “Oh,” Doris trailed her eyesacross the barely familiar faces and still couldn't replace the one that had those deadly blue eyes. “Ishouldn't.” “Why shouldn't you?” Enzo asked as they stopped in front of her cabin. His brows wereraised in an almost humorous expression as he looked her over. “Afraid the prince will think we'regetting married?”. Doris blushed and turned her face away. “That's absurd. I shouldn't because Ishould be trying to figure out my wolf. She's quite difficult to understand right now.” “Well, morethe reason you should dine with me. I can give you some advice that your prince might have beenneglectful to share.” Enzo clasped his hands behind his back and flashed a grin at her. Doris sighed.She knew she shouldn't accept, if William saw her alone with him he would think the worst. But-figuring out her wolf was much more important than whatever he thought of her. Which, at themoment, wasn't much. “Alright. When?” “I'll send someone to get you.” Enzo said and turned away.Doris watched as he left, offering smiles to those that passed him. She'd never met someone whowas so loved and feared at the same time. For his villagers, she assumed he was more loved thanfeared by the way they looked at him with such adoration. « Inside her cabin, Doris locked the doorand flung herself on her bed to bury her face deep in her pillow. Flashes of William entered hermind, she tried to force them out and think of something-anything else. Her lips tingled as if shecould still feel the brief touch he pressed upon her. What did he expect from her? His rough handsturned a bit soft as he turned her face to his to kiss her and then spit her out. She would neverforget the look on his face when he realized how rotten she truly was. How much he didn’t wanther. 1 Doris turned and stared up at the ceiling. Her fingers lightly trailed along her lips and couldswear he lingered there long after he was gone. His disgust for her set him in a new light that shedidn't dare try to touch-nor did she want to. Her shame and sorrows were long pushed down by thetime the sun had gone down she only wanted her mate and wanted Doris to bow down to hisneeds. Especially when the man that she claimed was her mate hated her guts and grew sick just bytheir kiss. “What if I don't listen to what she wants?” “You have to replace a compromise. I recommendtaking a full day to try and figure her out otherwise she will never want to listen if you don't getalong with her. It won't happen over night, but it will help more than you think. Give it a shot.” Dorisnodded and picked at her food. It was delicious and the meat melted in her mouth in the best waypossible—but her stomach turned on her. She was starving before she stepped through the door,but now that William was here she could only think about the way he spit at her feet after he kissedher. “I know she doesn't like being told what to do, she refuses to come to me when I call her andshe only shifts when she wants. I was caught out in the snow storm and she wouldn't even changeto save me.” “It will be like that for a while. She's trying to show you she’s the dominate one insideyou so you will answer to her. They don't care what they have to do to show their control, even if itkills them.” Enzo said, William shifted in his seat. “Mine tried to control me for years when I wasyounger. It made me do horrible things it wanted just so I could get it to change until I realized itwasn't right. We are the ones that control our wolves.” Patrick took a long drink and cleared histhroat.” She will learn, don't fall for anything she tells you.” Doris felt as if it was the same adviceover and over, but none of it helped her understand what to do. Argue with her wolf until it agreedto change? Threaten her wolf or try to show dominance she didn't have? They all stared at her as ifthey expected her to understand them. She didn’t understand anything, they'd all been wolves forso long they didn't know what it was like to know nothing about it. Doris took a deep breath and letit out slowly before she spoke. “Okay. I think I got it.”
