*Alpha Zero*
I held my ground as we waited for barely half a minute and listen to their footsteps get closer. Six wolves, but there is one who stood out from the rest. A big wolf in dark chocolate whose mane is thick and eyes as golden brown with a lengthy tail. His ears are perk and he snarled on the air as he approached. What a rude little wolf!
"Identify yourselves! You are standing on the land owned by the Alpha of the North without permission!
Larry raised a boisterous declaration.
I growled back in a much louder noise that the air surrounding the clearing have stirred and the wolves with him felt the force, they hide themselves behind the big wolf. In surprised but more like fear, have I shown too much?
The action earned a chuckle from Greta and the two warriors with me. It was meant to make them see that I am the alpha of the North and this is a place where they can
*Princess Jasmin*A month have already past. Maleficus and Ayah have worked hard on finding a better solution to the Queen's problem, looking after her health and the baby inside her womb. Nothing seems to be wrong, they are both healthy and well. But still, deep in my heart I worry that something will just come and take her away.I woke up one morning to a beautiful weather with the sound of the birds chirping outside the big glass window of my room. I watch as the rays of the morning sun penetrates through the middle of the curtains, creating a wonderful view. I have missed this wonderful view of my room which reminded me of my childhood."Princess, good morning. Are you awake?"A series of knocks on the door followed by a woman’s voice, coming from my personal help Kiera have brought me back into my senses."Yes Kiera, you can come in."
*Princess Jasmin*I opened my eyes and woke up in a room that is unfamiliar to me, although I know it is inside the palace so I got up and looked around to realized that it was the guest room beside the Queen's space. Oh!Carmela!...I remember the Queen and that moment before I passed out from the scene, I quickly removed the sheets covering me and come down from the bed.The lights are already on inside the room, which signifies sundown. How long was I out? I searched for my footwear and grab the doorknob when the howling sound reached my ears. Oh Moon Goddess, let Carmela survive...please!When I opened the door, Ayah came rushing towards me. "Princess Jasmin! I'm so glad your awake, come see the Prince in the nursery room. He is so adorable and precious, he reminds me of that time when Zero was born."She grab my elbow and ushered me towards the other room, drawing away my attention when I was supposed to go to th
*Alpha Zero*"Alpha Zero, we have visitors in the North Eastern border! The Alpha of the East, he came with his sister and four other friends. They said, you are expecting them."Greta sounded a little rush through the mind link. Beta Derek raised his head towards me from the message that he's reading in his hands. A letter from the old Alpha of the East. Alpha Robin's father, requesting to let me help his son. To provide a good training that he needs.I groaned and ran my fingers through my hair, I have something to do tomorrow. I promised the Princess I will be there in the Langston Palace, and I am not the type who would break his words."Alpha, this does not look good! I can't imagine why Alpha Li Jun will say such things."Beta Derek tossed the letter back to my desk, like me, the message was difficult to take. I have read it a couple of times to try and understand what he meant."That is
* Alpha Zero*The trip to the Royal pack took more than six hours on the road. Loki and Jim take turns from driving while I keep my thoughts to myself along the way. When we arrived at the nearest border of the Royal pack's territory, my back immediately straightened up from the seat.The huge wall of the gate brought back memories, in so many times that I have visited this place.Loki halted in front of the gate and it only took a couple of seconds before two of the warrior guards from the Royal pack came towards us.I scrolled the tinted window of our four wheel drive down and glanced at the guards standing in front of me."Good day gentlemen! I am Alpha Zero of the North. The Princess is expecting me."The man who stood in front did not smile or blink but bowed down his head. "Welcome Alpha Zero, you and your companions can proceed when the gates are op
*Princess Jasmin*"Do you think your brother will talk to me?" Alpha Zero holds my hand while we started walking towards the room that the Queen lies. We leaved the little Prince who started sleeping after playing with him for a few minutes inside his crib. We watched him drink milk in the careful hands of the two reliable chamber maids before he began to close his beautiful eyes into sleep.It was the first time that I saw this side of Alpha Zero, he looked happy and surprised. He must be overwhelmed by the sight of a baby in the palace with us.Looking at his tiny angelic face made us forget the worries of both our packs even for a little while.Alpha Zero must not have expected to meet such a cute and wonderful baby boy today. I just wished my brother would recognized him soon enough
*Alpha Zero*We did not even spend the night in the Langston Palace, after the talk between the Alpha King and Princess Jasmin, I mind linked every wolf from our pack to get ready and head home. Ayah was forced to join us when I told her of what the Princess have decided to do. I allowed Ayah to have a little time talking to the Princess before we left.Now, I am asking myself how strong is the mate bond that we have? Maybe it isn't enough to convince her to come with me or maybe it is because I am not reciprocating the same amount of feelings for the bond due to the fact that I am still unable to smell her as my mate. Despite all that, my mind is preoccupied by her face every single day since she leave the North."Zero, how is everything back in the pack? Is there something new? Are there any rogue attacks?"Ayah was behind me leaning forward in my seat while I was sitting beside Loki who is driving the ford and co
* Princess Jasmin*The sweat glistening through my face and entire body began to increase as the punches I made in the pear-shaped bag suspended from the ceiling speed up. I am keeping myself physically and mentally strong, to keep myself fit and do well on my duties in the pack while my brother is on a journey searching for the woman who bear Queen Carmela's incarnate.The confirmation of my brother's love being incarnated inside a she wolf's womb is supported by Maleficus and his vision on the future, however anything could happen according to the will of the Moon Goddess.Honestly, I thought it was such a blessing that the Moon Goddess has given my brother a second chance for love. I think he deserved it being the Alpha King in all the four regions ruled by wolves. I watched their love grow and prosper inside the palace, and now that they have the prince, I hoped they will overcome
*Alpha Zero*We arrived quicker than I expected in the huge Palace of the Royal pack. I looked around me as the scene abruptly turned into high ceilings and walls painted with beige and gold. The carpeted floor and long hallways remind me of how splendid this place was made to let the noble wolves live in luxury.A huge door with beautiful carvings is in front of us. "We are here Alpha Zero, just push the door open. Behind that door the Princess is waiting for you. Now I have somewhere else that I should be."The old man smiled and bowed slightly to me. He left before I could open my mouth to speak. I took a deep breath in and smoothed the clothes that I'm wearing. My hand slightly trembled as i twist the knob and pushed the door open."Princess! I'm here.."My eyes searched the vast and luxurious room as soon as I walked in. A huge Victorian bed set in the middle of the fancy room have i
*Alpha King Jack*That wide place in front of our old room window in the Palace, is where most of our sweetest memories lies. An area that is covered by nature's best growing plants, my very own favorite spot and was later on became Carmela's beloved place too.Those times when our love for each other is stilled both in our hearts and minds, when our mate bond runs deep with in our hearts and soul.As we get closer to the entrance, I made the car stop smoothly outside the thick railings of the gates. A guard who stood by immediately open the tall barrier when he recognized my vehicle.I promptly went out of the car and open the door on her side of the seat, in less than two seconds. Looking at how lovely she is in the dress that she's wearing, I thought if it's just a sheer coincidence that she is portraying as the prettiest fairy in my rose garden. Where she have often times wal
*Carmela*Summer break, I think all the young people like me who goes to school everyday has been waiting for this moment like it's the best part of our lives.After the celebration of my birthday and the little commotion which is created by Marga and two other girls from school, I have stayed home with a wolf guard outside our door.My father have insisted to keep my safety in the top of his priority, specially when he's not around the house.Today he was out early, I didn't ask where he was going but he told me to stay home since he is requested to accompany the Alpha King's son who arrived yesterday. They are set for an important mission to the city.The Prince have been studying abroad for a degree. I've seen him a couple of times, and he always is the center of attention whenever he is around. With his goo
*Alpha King Jack*That night was both memorable and special yet I ended up being disappointed. I shouldn't have expected that Carmela's memories would come back sooner at her age right now, and the worst thing is. They might not come back at all. But what makes me a little glad is the fact that she felt attracted towards me too. However, that wasn't enough. We had memories so full of love together, which is not easy to just let go and start over like it didn't exist."Good morning Alpha King, the breakfast is ready sir."As soon as my foot step out of my bedroom the Palace maids who's been waiting outside immediately ask for my first meal of the day."No, I'm heading directly to the office. Just have someone send me a cup of black coffee. Please."The maid looked disappointed but nodded her head in submission. I rarely have breakfast but despite that, the people who work for me a
*Carmela*"Where have you been in the past few hours Carmela? I haven't seen you until now. The other guests was looking for you, and I can't blame them. This is your party after all!"My father surveyed my face, trying to read my expression and furrowed his brows when he realized that I am wearing a different gown. Not the same one that he bought, his eyes turned wide in surprise as he open his mouth to say something but the powerful figure behind him approached us and beat his tongue to it."Beta Derek! Can I join you and our birthday celebrant in your table?"His deep and well modulated voice made me feel anxious. Alpha King Jack! Just by looking at him has made my heart rate beats faster inside my chest. Our eyes meet when I look up to greet him in my most controlled manner. Trying hard not to show the excitement and surprise when he brush the air beside me.I love the wonder
*Alpha King Jack*When her head nod in agreement, my heart began to pound faster inside of my chest. Just like the very first time that I kissed her in many years ago, the strong feeling of desire and longing is a sweet torture that makes my anticipation clawing from the inside of my body. Carmela, my mate, my bride the love of my life. How much longer do I have to wait? I wanted to unveil the truth to everyone most specially to her, the history about us and the fact of our love.My feelings for Carmela has never change through the years, it only becomes stronger than ever everyday. Her lashes shut and she tilted her head upwards waiting for my kiss. I started to feel the need to have her in my arms and to pressed my lips against her soft mouth, to know if her lips tasted the same like how it's used to be. Like how I remembered it made me feel."You don't know how long I have waited for this moment Carmela." 
*Alpha King Jack*I don't know what makes me more mad, the fact that those girls did something to harm Carmela or the thought that I invited them in the first place. I could blame myself because I was not aware of how envied she could be, at school and all around the Palace. I wanted to reveal to everyone why she is treated special, and why she's very protected but I am afraid that the news would shock her as well as all the wolves in the Kingdom.My eyes did not leave her place, when she began to moan a little louder than usual. She's in pain, the drug is giving her hallucinations and torture! Where the hell is Maleficus!? He was gone for almost ten minutes and every second which passes felt like years.I kneeled down beside her and hold her hands, they felt hot. The sight of her eye lashes fluttering and the glistening sweat that flows on her forehead have tripled the worries that I am feeling deep in my heart. And the rage I'm fe
*Carmela*Two shots, that's all it takes and I am officially friends with Marga and the girls. We walk out of the wine place like there's nothing happened, but the exchange of glances between the other girls have me thinking if something was wrong or if there was a hidden meaning on the motion. The short drinking session was too easy so I wonder if there's a catch."You did great Carmela! I am so proud of you."Marga held my hand like I am her sister, it felt a little weird since not long ago they were just ignoring me specially at school and in the classroom."Thank you, I am happy to be friends with you girls. I thought this day will never come."My statement is sincere, I have not really thought about getting along with this girls since the day I meet them at school."Of course Carmela, today is your birthday! All of us is celebrating with yo
*Carmela*The day for my birthday celebration finally come, which made me busy of the preparation since it desired my great attention being the celebrant. My father have paid for a costly dress that I would wear for the significant occasion, and the jewelries that matches them was sent by the Alpha King. My heart is overwhelmed when I heard that the Palace are officially concentrated on the festivity.My seventeenth birthday, it would have been better if I will turn eighteen. That way, I will know the fated mate that I have from the Moon Goddess. Nothing excites me better than the gift that Alpha King Jack promised to give me.Discreetly I wished that my fated mate is him, although I know that it would be impossible since he's way older than I am."Isn't she ready yet?"My father, showed a display of impatience feature as he gazes towards the Palace maid putting
*Carmela*The Alpha King, I can't believe that he would say something like that. It was actually what I have been dreaming of ever since I've heard the girls talking about their first kiss. I don't know why but the handsome face of our Alpha is the first person that comes to my mind, and then I told myself. Even if the Moon Goddess have already chosen a mate for him, I would still choose the Alpha King as my first kiss.A smile form in my lips as I lay in my bed and watch the ceiling. I can still hear the voice of Alpha King Jack and everything that he just said in the couch. He asked me to stop calling him sir and call him Alpha King Jack. I bit my lips and smiled on top of that, he said something that he would give me on my birthday.I closed my eyes and let my mind fall into a deep slumber while thinking about him and the upcoming event that will mark another year of my life.It was a bright and beautiful morning
