Chapter 21 - Getting to know the wolf world
Rhiannon heard the king's words and the first thought which can in her mind was -'Run'.
Disregarding that fact that she was in a court, standing in front of a wolf king, surrounded by shapeshifting wolves in a country of wolves. There was no way she could escape this. She would be caught and probably shred to ribbons by these monsters. None of these things occurred to her.
She just turned and bolted.....
Vasilios heard the swishing noise beside him. He looked on as she ran towards the entrance of the great hall.
He could hear tuts and murmurs in the court, while his father looked on amused.
His mother was frowning as usual.
"Well, that's quite amusing!" King Rendall commented as Rhiannon's lithe figure ran out of the great hall.
Vasilios shook his head and walked out of the hall.
She had been caught by the palace guards and was screaming to be released. <

Vasilios was sitting in his chamber annoyed. Now that Rhiannon had been taken care of, he had other things to attend to, and also get some mental peace, if that was possible."Vasilios I can't believe it, you used your Alpha authority on me!" Helena walked in fuming."Leave me alone Helena." He said curtly.But his tone, rather than deter the unwelcome guest as it would, brought her forward until she stood before him, looking down at his slumped form in the handsomely carved chair."No, you humiliated me, in front of the omegas and that human, I cannot hold my tongue if I am to become your mate."Vasilios rose abruptly, looking down at the fair-haired woman with mild disgust."I have no interest to talk about your ambitions tonight, lady, so I suggest you remove yourself from my presence. I'll not ask again.""It's that girl, isn't it? That human girl -

"Werewolves also get attacked?" Rhiannon asked Arios."Every living thing is vulnerable to something or someone, lady Rhiannon. But you need not fret yourself. You are well protected in Arcadia." Arios smiled."I will wait for you, outside." Arios nodded and left her alone. Her omegas also arrived soon after, she wondered how. She never asked for them, but she was getting used to their strange ways.*********Vasilios walked towards the council room. As expected his father was holding a meeting with other councilmen and few pack leaders.Vasilios gave a quick scan, Lord Elios was missing. Which was a surprise, he would never leave an opportunity to undermine King Rendall."Welcome son, please join us," Randall said, ho's face grim."Well as already said there was another attack on the border village of Larks. Though it was of a smaller scale, due to increased patrol
Tribute to the Alpha Chapter 24 - The ceremony
When the morning dawned, Vasilios was nowhere to be found. At least Rhiannon didn't see him. He might have been somewhere in the enormous palace, but he didn't come to see her.Breakfast was served for her alone, as was midday lunch. Apart from her omega helpers, she was left alone.It was well past noon when the queen sent for her. Standing before her, Rhiannon dipped into her curtsy, as was to be expected."You can rise," the queen announced.It was then Rhiannon finally looked up, at the queen, Helena and a few other ladies and men. It was probably the inner court. Arios had told her during their tour that they had a smaller informal court as well as the queen's court.The mood there was uneasy, despite the familiar presence of Arios who sat stiffly, his face expressionless.Everyone else held expressions ranging from indifference, pity, malice to even hate.Rhiannon shivered under their gaze, praying for

"That can't be true," Rhiannon chuckled a little, trying to make herself feel better."I can't be a wolf, I am not like them." She noticed the appalled looks of people around her," I mean I can't turn, I have always been a human." Her head seemed to be spinning. This could not be happening. Barely a week ago she was a normal country girl. Suddenly, she was pronounced a werewolf."Surely there must be a mistake?" Rhiannon said."The chalice of truth never makes a mistake," Nymeria snapped at her. Her face was furious.She turned towards Marina, "How can this happen?""Your majesty, I have never come across anything like this, the girl has the wolf's blood but seems like it's been repressed. She never experienced the changes which a werewolf does when they reach puberty."Nymeria eyed Rhiannon."Who are you girl? What have you been hiding?""I..

"Vasilios! This is no time to jest," Nymeria said."Mother, I am not joking," Vasilios looked determined. His eyes flashing."Rhiannon is my mate, I had known it for quite some time, but.....", he waited for some time." I wanted to make sure that, this is what I wanted.""Preposterous!" Nymeria muttered.Rendall raised his hand to quiet the court."Vasilios, can you please explain?" The king asked.Vasilios explained the circumstances under which he had to bring Rhiannon.Elios observed the series of event with a smirk. He didn't even have to make any effort. Vasilios had walked into his ruin himself."Your majesty, if I may suggest, isn't taking a human mate forbidden for the Alphas?" Elios said from his seat.Vasilios knew this would happen. The courtiers followed the laws superficially, none of them had read and studied the book

Rhiannon opened her eyes and blinked in confusion. She was wearing bed cloth which she didn't remember putting them on.Then she spotted Vasilios next to her on the bed, she wasnt even in her room. Did something happen last night? She didn't remember anything.Adding to her shock was the fact that he was completely nude, his blanket was wrapped around his ankles. She couldn't help herself, her gaze roamed the sharp edges of his toned muscles, trailing down his abdomen to his morning erection, so unabashedly masculine."Do you like what you see ?" He purred, suddenly opening his eyes.She nearly screamed and jumped back moving a little out of his reach, a blush radiated from her face, embarrassed at being caught ogling the naked Prince. "Would you cover yourself please?" She said turning her back on his smirking face.He laughed, "You need to relax a little - I could teach you.""I'm su
Tribute to the Alpha Chapter 28 - Back to Allendale
A week had passed since Rhiannon had arrived in Arcadia, she spent most of her time with, Vasilios, Arios, or her Omegas.She had not seen the king and the queen since the day she was declared as Vasilios's mate, and thankfully Helena had not bothered either.Rhiannon had gone through every book in the library reading up about werewolves, and the mate bond.How mates could communicate mentally and even transfer their life energies to each other when needed. She wondered how Vasilios felt, she being still a human could not understand that depth, though she loved him.Standing in front of the mirror one night, Rhiannon opened her robe and gently touched the rune below her navel. She has tried deciphering it through the library books but she couldn't find anything."We'll get rid of it soon. " Vasilios called."Vasilios you can't just walk into a lady's chamber

Authur's eyes narrowed as he looked at his daughter. The feeling of fear and disgust ran through him."She assured me that you were not like her, " he muttered."Father please..." Rhiannon pleased again."Do not call me your father!" He snapped."Your mother was a disgusting creature. When I met her I thought she was a lady. But which lady throws herself so wantonly." Arthur paused."When I found out that she was a shapeshifting wolf, I left her. Unfortunately, she was already pregnant with you."Rhiannon clasped Vasilios's hand tightly, it was only due to his comforting presence she could sit through the narration."What happened to her?""I left her of course, however, she came pleading one night to take you in. Her people were not happy, they would have killed you. I have enough honour to not abandon my blood. So I took you in."Vasilios sc
