QuinnI walked out of the room few minutes later without waiting for Tyrex to come back. There was no need to do that. He would see the meat I had killed and that was the proof he needed to know that he had lost to me. It wasn't a total loss though as the one who lost in the duel for the position of the alpha automatically became the general of the pack.I hoped that the two of us would be able to work together for the better purpose of the pack. It wasn't an easy thing to wish for at this moment but I hoped that we could make it work. With the way Fedro hated my guts and the win that I had, I could only hope that he didn't incite Tyrex to rebel against me.I hoped that Tyrex wasn't a fool and a man of his own. I hoped that he wasn't swayed by Fredo to cause trouble and we would be able to have a stronger pack with the cooperation of the two of us.I decided that I would have a meeting with Tyrex after our initiation ceremony as the alpha and the general of the pack. I would have had
QuinnIt was coronation day. It was festival time. It was jubilation time. The pack was in a festive mood and I didn't think anything could stop that, not even Fredo's angry glares as he moved around the party. What was his problem? He should go back to his house if he felt like he didn't want to be here instead of acting up and walking around, looking like he would love to have a pass at our heads with his claws. Not that anyone cared about his sour looks. Everyone was too happy to care. It turned out that the wolves were happy that I got to be their alpha. There was a huge turnout of all the werewolves in the pack for the celebration event that we didn't have enough room for all the guests even though the mansion of the alpha was the biggest house of all the houses owned by anyone in the pack.We had to ask the werewolves to manage the rooms, four to a person and they didn't mind. They were all just too happy to have an excuse to be together, see one another and celebrate. Though it
QuinnI felt a sense of deja Vu as I stood before the men with Tyrex. We had had our meeting and had both worked out a plan for how we were going to run the pack and any war that we were to have. I was elated that Fredo wouldn't come in between us. He seemed like a man that had a mind of his own and I was glad that he hadn't disappointed me.He was truly meant to have dueled for the position of an alpha. He was meant to be the general of the pack.Standing before the men and looking at them reminded me of when I had stood before the soldiers of the vampire clan and was preparing them for war. That was what I was doing here as well. We were preparing for war, finally going against those who had dared to come after the men in our pack. Those were the men who had been the reason the elders had come to dad, why he had to confess to them that he wasn't strong and why we had had to have dueling ceremony faster than it was planned.I hoped that we wouldn't be having a war though. Not that I
QuinnI was back home. We had won the war. We had chased off the wolves to wherever else they could go through and had gotten our men back. I knew that the men weren't ever going to come back with what we had done to them.I had been trying to have pity on them, knowing they were a homeless pack and wanted to reach a compromise with them, working on how they could live happily with our men without breaking any code of conduct and making a mess of the law but they hadn't composed themselves in the manner of a pack that I would want my men to live with. Before long, if care wasn't taken and I allowed my men to get used to men as barbaric as that, they would be corrupted by their bad manners and start living as animals which was less than what they were.I leaned on my bed as I got out of the bathroom and splayed wide, explaining the rest I had. I needed it after the war that I had fought with those miscreants.I heard a subtle knock on the door and wondered who it was. Mia and my brothe
QuinnEventually, the silence was broken by Albus. He still looked stunned though. I glanced at Fredo and I was just a breath away from laughing and if not that I had to keep my prestige as a leader, I would have cracked open with laughter at the expression on his face.He looked stunned of them all, blinking repeatedly at me as if he couldn't believe his eyes.Hadn't he always loved acting as if he knew everything about me? I bet he wasn't expecting that."Isn't she your sister?" Albus asked."My step-sister. We aren't biological." I said in my defense."Is that what you say to yourself to make yourself feel better?" Fredo asked. "Is that what you said to yourself when you set out to seduce the poor girl? Is this why you've been single for long and wouldn't want to date anyone in the pack? Wouldn't you have dated someone else if your father hadn't married that human female? Didn't you see anyone else to mate with except that frail human girl?" He sighed. "This is ridiculous."I scowl
MiaI was bored. I missed the boys like crazy. I hadn't seen them for up to a day at a stretch ever since we got that call from Albert and had been told to return home.They had been busy with the preparations to make Quinn the alpha of the pack and even after he was alpha, there had still been no time to see one another. He had been busy on one official outing or the other as the alpha, seeing to the welfare of his people and going about visiting alphas of the neighborhood packs and renewing their relationship with them.Jack and John weren't the alpha but that didn't mean that they weren't as busy as he was. They were both either on official duties of the pack or off to another assignment on Quinn's behalf to help him. After all, everyone knew that they were the alpha's brothers and no one would have disputed their words if they had said anything.Moreover, they looked the same as Quinn did so they could easily pass off as him on assignments or journeys that needed Quinn's attention
MiaI was racked with nerves. I was afraid. I didn't think that I had ever been afraid in my life. My heart beat loudly as if it was going to jump out of my heart and I knew that I didn't have to knock on the door when I got to Albert's study to announce my arrival to the elders and whoever was in there.With the superior hearing of the wolves and the way my heart was beating loud enough to compete with the beats from a drum, I was sure that they would have heard me coming, even from miles apart.I was about to get to Albert's study when I turned back and ran outside to the garden. I couldn't do this. I couldn't do it. I couldn't face the elders when I was this much of a mess and didn't even know what they wanted from me. I had to be composed to stand before them and not be torn into shreds by them but I couldn't find it in me at all to compose myself.I ran all the way out to the garden seeking some fresh air for myself. Maybe after some minutes out there, I would have gotten the str
MiaI was right that it was a serious meeting. The elders, as they were called, were seated in Albert's study looking so fierce with their expressions that I wondered if they hated me and almost lost my footing. I didn't though and quickly straightened myself up, my head and my shoulder high with pride as the Luna that I was meant to be.I was glad that I had the boys with me or maybe I would have faltered in my confidence and steps. It was glad to have someone familiar and on your side in the room when you walk into the lion's den because that was what it felt to me.Even Albert didn't act as if he knew me and I was glad that I had run outside and found the boys and had come inside with them. I would have been shaken if I had thought that I had Albert on my side and he was behaving like this. I understood him though. He was trying to act with principles and show that it was a formal meeting and he didn't want to show any preference but that didn't mean that he couldn't have given me
