* Alpha King Zed *"Alpha King, Your Majesty! There is a distress signal coming from the East. We are afraid that there could be something that happened to your Father sire."I looked up from the papers that I was reading and saw the face of the lead warrior at the border. Then I took a deep breath in, he was looking anxious waiting for my reply."The East? And who received the signal? Haris is with my Father and any signal from that Villa will not reach here. It could be from the other part of the East, however, I appreciate that you reported it to me directly."The lead warrior nodded while standing in front of me. There was a sign of slight relief in his eyes as he spoke slowly."Our warriors detected a commotion while monitoring the howling sounds last night sire and it was in the Eastern location. It was quite far, but I must report it to Beta Osuof and since he is not here I decided to seek your attention this early sire."Beta Osuof and my sister Zeina are visiting the West to
* Althea *It was after lunch when Princess Zeina told me that they needed to go back to the Place early. "But Zeina it's not even one day that you've been here, how come you need to go back so fast? There's a lot we must do together here, I need to show you a beautiful spot where we have breakfast after our run."From sitting on the balcony of my bedroom we saw that Beta Osuof and the two warriors were already standing beside the vehicle they used to get there."I can't stay much longer Thea, my brother will be mad. Beta Osuof has a lot of work waiting for him as well. Although I wanted to stay here for at least three days I am sure that if I don't leave now, Beta Osuof will drag me to the car and force me to go home. He will not defy my brother."I sighed and looked down at Beta Osuof who was also looking up at us, he waved his hand and I had no choice but to wave back since I saw him smiling. But his eyes towards Zeina are asking her that they should take a leave. "Oh Zeina, I wan
* Althea *I watch him walk slowly towards my seat with his eyes glued to me. Every female wolf should be attracted to him, aside from being a strong Alpha Joe is also good-looking with a gorgeous body. I can see the sincerity in his eyes when he sits beside me and grabs both of my hands, I was unable to move. Slowly he brought my hands to his lips and gently he kissed them one after the other. That's when I feel his warm lips on my skin."Oh no. Alpha Joe, we can't be doing this here."My eyes move to the wide open door. The door of the library, he didn't close it when he got in and I thought it was better."Don't be afraid of my cousin Thea. Alpha King Zed is maybe the Alpha King but he is my cousin, I know him. When he doesn't care about a woman he would not give his attention to her. I know the situation you are in, and I am willing to pay them for what is the cost that your family has given. I can talk to the old wolf too, uncle Rudolp would understand I am sure he does."I was s
* Alpha King Zed *It was sundown when Beta Osuof and my sister together with the rest of the warriors arrived in the Palace. I felt a sigh of relief knowing that they had traveled safely to and from the Western territory. As I had anticipated Zeina was not happy to come back early and I already knew that she wouldn't say anything to me. So I waited for Beta Osuof in the library."Good evening Your Majesty!"There is no sign of exhaustion on his face so I figured it was a smooth journey. "Glad to see you back sooner Beta."He came inside and closed the door behind him. Waiting for his report, I set aside the book that I was reading."Tell me what you have observed in the West and how Alpha Joe reacted to my message."Beta Osuof cleared his throat and sat on the couch facing me. "He's serious about her your Majesty. Alpha Joe was asking me if you could give him a chance to speak with you. He requests an appointment but you haven't replied to his letters. He said he has sent two?"There
* Alpha King Zed *"Alpha there was no traces of the enemy from the Villa where your father stayed towards a place where they came from. It seemed erased, the Alpha of the East expressed his sadness over what happened to your Father and the warriors."My eyes look at my Father who's lying on the white bed, still fighting for his life. His breathing was narrow and his heart beat very slow I couldn't hear it sometimes."And where are they during the commotion? Why did they not help my Father in the Villa? They could have noticed the enemies lurking in their territories! I am going to summon Alpha Lander here!"Anger and frustration that is what I feel at the moment, seeking someone to blame aside from myself for the horrible incident that may take the life of my Father. I couldn't tell if he would leave, the doctor had yet to confirm to me."No, Your Majesty please you can't blame the Alpha of the East I have spoken to him. Your Father refuses his help since the first time they welcome
* Althea *"Are you happy?"The direct question coming from Alpha Joe made me turn my head towards him who was in front of the steering wheel. While I was seated beside him in his Ford pickup, we were on the road to my family's place. My eyes then made a glance at Dylan who was sitting behind me, Albert stayed in the Villa with Donna."Of course! Thanks to you I can finally visit my mother and brother after months of being away."Although I am not sure if my brother is home, I know that Mom is always there. "Yeah, I don't know the reason of his Majesty. But it's best if we keep this to ourselves, I mean I am not afraid of him but I don't want him to feel that I have defied his order. Although he did not give me the order to stop you from visiting your family.""Yes, thank God for that."As Dylan leaned his back on the seat and pretended to take a nap I am sure that he could fully hear and was listening to our conversation. "You said your brother works with the warriors near your terri
* Alpha King Zed *"Wake up son! I have something to tell you so you must hear me, this is important!"My eyes flew open and I got up from my bed, the voice was coming from my Father. I didn't know that I had fallen asleep in my chambers, I scanned my eyes around. How did I get back here? I remembered sitting on a chair and watching his breathing. I was worried, his body had gone weak without any signs of life. I brushed my hair and let my feet down then I felt something in my room move."Are you ready to listen now?"My eyes turned to the right, but he wasn't there and then I looked in front of me and there he stood. Wearing his white robe, he looks refreshed and well."Father? How did you get here? You were sick in your bed, am I dreaming?""Stop asking silly questions! I need you to listen and understand, the Palace is in danger. It could be now or later but the rogues have thought they can conquer our Palace because of what they did to me. Enemies are everywhere son, please be sma
* Althea *I wake up to a beautiful Sunday morning, as I watch the bright rays of sun coming from the window of my room. Smiling at myself I got out of bed and stood in front of the glass window letting the low heat touch my skin. Today is a rest day for me, from the training and running on the hills and in the West Pack training center. A few knocks on my door made me turn around."Your Majesty, are you awake?"Donna is coming to fix my bed and ask me what I want for breakfast."Yes Donna, come in please."When she comes in, I walk towards the bathroom and have a quick shower to get ready for the day. Humming myself under the cold water, I hope the day goes by without anything bad happening as it is every day here in the West. After I finished Donna, Donna was waiting for me inside the room. "Breakfast your Majesty?"I smiled at her. "Oh, Donna thank you for waiting. Please just a fresh orange juice and some toast.""Coming right up, Your Majesty."When she leaves I choose a decent
* Robert Greene *"Let's drive back to the station George."He nodded. George had been my partner ever since I started this job in the North. With the recommendation coming from my father, I stopped my previous job and worked at a boring police station. I can't say I enjoyed this job but it is better than making my parents who are not getting any younger on the verge of weariness about my safety all the time."God, I can't believe you are leaving this station in a few days Robert. You're the only one who can stand up to those filthy rich bastards living in the mountain."I shook my head and smiled while I watched the road. "What do you mean I'm the only one? Of course you guys need to enforce the law no matter what or who the persons are. Filthy rich huh? I guess you could say that about them."This was not the first time I went on to the Xaviers's villa for questioning. There was an incident not long time ago that a dead body was found near their lands, but with not enough evidence a
* Princess Zeina *As I drove the car, I couldn't help but glance at the side mirror. The police vehicle was following us. If I went slow, they went slower, and they remained behind until we reached the territory of the Northern pack. "Your Majesty, are we in trouble with the policemen?"Anna asked worriedly as she glanced in the side mirror and saw them, too. "No, I don't think so. However, Mrs. Xavier is resting, and I don't want to disturb her.""Oh, what are we going to do then?"I closed my eyes and stopped in front of the gates. Then quickly called for Alpha Francis on the mind link."I hope I am not disturbing you but I need your help."He was surprised to hear my voice in the mind link. "No, I am in fact near the Alpha house. What's this about?""Oh! That's great then come to the Alpha house now. There are people that need to speak with you and I will explain when you get here."The guards opened the gates and I drove inside followed by the police car. "Your Majesty? Are they
* Princess Zeina *Another day in the North and my feet are itching to walk outside or perhaps drive a car around the mountains. It isn't similar to other days, now the clouds are behaving and although it is still cold the snow has stopped falling. Not to mention that the sun is shining brightly."Come on Anna, let's go out today."Old Mrs. Xavier had gone back to her bedroom after breakfast and was not feeling well so this was my chance. She said I could drive around using her car, and told me to take the keys from the key box near the entrance. Taking the pink car key in my hand I wasted no time and urged Anna to go out with me."But where are we going, your Majesty? Alpha Francis is not here and Mrs. Xavier is sick.""Don't worry Anna we won't go far, I just want to go out for a drive since it's been three days that we have been here and I am only staying inside the Alpha house. I think that even Mrs. Xavier is bored with looking at my face."We walk out of the house and into the g
* Princess Zeina *I was looking out the window, as the light fall of white pieces of tiny cotton ball balls from the dark sky fascinated me. It's almost seven in the evening and I know that they would be calling me out to eat, I'm not hungry but I had to go down and meet with them. Mrs. Xavier will be expecting me, she's such a kind old woman who reminds me of my mother. Alpha Francis is lucky to have at least one parent by his side even though he doesn't have any siblings."Your majesty? You need to go down now, Alpha Francis and his mother are waiting for you at the dining table."I turned around to see Anna opening the door of my room. "Oh yeah, let's go down together."She walks with me to the stairs and down to the dining hall. "Good evening everyone! I have to apologize for coming down late."Alpha Francis stands up and pulls out the chair opposite to him while Mrs. Xavier is on my right. "That's alright Princess Zeina, it hasn't been long since I arrived. My mother and I typic
* Princess Zeina *"Goodbye Zeina, take care of yourself while I am away. I promise to send Beta Osuof to take you back to the palace as soon as the war ends and the warriors of Alpha Francis are back here."I smiled at my brother, noticing the look of worry in his eyes. If we had a better choice, he would not have let me stay. However, we made a deal with the Alpha of the West, and he is bringing more warriors because I am staying."Yes, don't worry too much brother. Focus on winning the war and with the number of warriors that you have now I am confident that you will soon eliminate all the rogues in the West."He nodded and then walked towards Alpha Francis who was talking to the warriors that would go with my brother. The Alpha house in the West is a decent place and I wouldn't mind staying here for a short vacation, except that it's too cold."Your Majesty, maybe it's better for us to head inside now. The wind is too cold."I turned around to see my personal servant Anna shiverin
* Alpha King Zed *We were back at the palace before sundown but I had to make a quick meeting for the warriors of the North and the East. Some selected warriors of the Palace were also left in the West to guard and make sure that no more rogues were hiding in the hidden places. The prisoners are secured in the dungeons and somehow I felt at ease."Everyone for the Alpha of the North and the East please send them my token of gratitude. The war will not be over if not for your support. I just want to thank each one of you, you can choose to leave now or stay and get some rest but I know that most of you would leave to be back with your families.""It's an honor, your Majesty, we will go and bring the good news to Alpha Francis of the North."The lead warrior of the North together with his wolves bow to me and get ready to leave. "The same with us your Majesty, Alpha lander of the East will be happy to know that there are no more rogues in the West. Thank you for letting us go home ear
* Alpha King Zed *We run through the thick forest, conquering the distance between my territory and the West. But I signal to stop when I notice that we are about to cross the border. No more rogues were guarding the gates and I could hear the fighting of the warriors from Beta Osuof and the rogues, I wanted us to go further but I was sticking to the plan. Since I haven't heard anything from him yet, we need to stay where we are."Your majesty? Aren't we going to proceed?"The warrior from the North asked me, he was standing close and he could hear what I was listening to."Not yet, it's important to hear from Beta Osuof to prevent each one of you from getting hurt. If we can prevent it from happening then there is no need to rush."He nodded but after a few seconds of waiting Beta Osuof is calling me on the min link."Your majesty!? I can't hold them for much longer, you need to come now because there are too many of them."In between breaths, I heard him fighting and so I signaled
* Alpha King Zed *After three days of intense preparation and training for all the warriors, we are finally ready to attack the rogues of the West. I kept the death of Alpha Joe within the palace wall, I didn't want the news about it would affect the Alpha of the North nor alert the rogues in the West. The death of my cousin would only bring negative effects for the war that is set to happen and I wouldn't want that. "Your Majesty, the soldiers are ready."The plan was a two-group attack the first group was led by Beta Osuof. As agreed they were the first ones to challenge the rogues and when the enemies came out we would surprise them with the second group attacked which is led by me and the warriors of the North and the East."Remember the plan Beta Osuof and just like we have all agreed, may the Moon Goddess favor us tonight. We won't let the rogues remain in the West they can either die or run for their lives."Beta Osuof howled and with the warrior numbers the outside of the Pa
* Althea *After I fixed myself because of the incident, I was surprised to find out that the servants had started transferring all my belongings to the master's chamber. "Are you sure about this Donna?"She smiled and nodded. "Your Majesty, the Alpha King has declared that you will no longer stay here. This room will be emptied of all the portraits that he has from childhood as well. The other servants have put most of your things in His Majesty's chambers so you can also go and get some rest there. I will follow you with the rest of your things.""Oh, but is his Majesty in his chambers right now?"Donna shook her head. "I believe his still with Beta Osuof as I overheard that they will discuss something in private.""Alright, then I'm going on ahead."The smile on my face widened as I walked the hallway to the master's chambers. With a rapid heartbeat I couldn't help but get excited that I had to remind myself that the Alpha King might be busy. This is the third time I am moving bac
