Chapter 10 Prince Patrick&Apos;S Pov

• It's already an hour since the party began, and instead of me being seated next to my father, while being entertained by beautiful she-wolves, one of whom I might later choose as my mate, I was dressed in a baggy coat, seated in a room filled with drunk warriors, admiring the beautiful lady who was all alone taking orders.
• Wondering what had brought me here? Well, after four years of college abroad, I finally returned to my pack. Those four years had been a struggle through thick and thin. Since I left the pack, my dad's constant nagging about me getting a mate had made me avoid visiting. Since I turned 18, the pressure of finding a mate had been intense. My dad and I had had countless arguments which led to disagreements.
• As the only child of Alpha Rogan, it was customary for me to have a Luna before assuming the throne of an alpha. My dad was already getting old, and being the Alpha of one of the strongest packs, who had stepped on the toes of many alphas, the fear of him being attacked and killed at any time troubled him greatly, leading to him pressuring me to get a mate. This way, I could get ready to lead our people if something happened to him. However, I still don't know why it was taking so long to find my mate. My father's lack of patience led him to arrange for many she-wolves for me to choose from just to become an alpha. When later I found my mate, I could marry her as a second wife. I hooked up with many of the beautiful she-wolves he had arranged for me, but after everything, it ended up being a fling. I was the kind of wolf who would never have anything serious if I didn't feel any connection, and I couldn't even fake it.
