Escape to the woods

Knock! Knock! Knock! 

"Who's there?" Adolph enquired 

It's me, Louis. 

"Oh, Louis, come in" Adolph ushered Louis in.

Adolph's bedroom speaks of royalty.

The bedroom has wooden walls and beams and is designed in the form of a cabin. A king-sized bed with a robust wooden headboard, a bed frame covered in cozy hand-stitched linens, and luxurious bedding is located in the middle of the room.

A sizable stone fireplace to the left provides warmth and acts as a welcoming focal point. An inviting armchair is placed next to the fireplace.

Large windows in the space provide panoramic views of the surrounding countryside as well as a lot of natural light.

Louis is a Beta werewolf who is Adolph's right-hand general, and also his best friend. They have been friends since childhood. 

Adolph lost his mom at birth, so he was taken care of by his mom's head servant. Adolph's dad also passed away when Adolph was 15, and since then, he became the Alpha king of the Moonlight pack.

Being a young alpha king of the Moonlight pack comes with a lot of challenges and responsibilities because you are entrusted with the leadership of the pack, and you are expected to make decisions that will impact thousands of lives. You must also protect the pack from external threats. 

Thanks to Louis or else, it wouldn't have been easy at all for Adolph.

"Where have you been Louis?" Adolpha asked.

" I am so sorry, I have been busy with the pack duties, you know as a general, I have tight schedules, so I quickly rushed to complete today's task so I can come to see you."

"Hope no problem?" Louis asked.

"It is nothing too serious," Adolph replied. 

 

"It is just that I had a dream. In my dream, I saw myself helping a girl that was attacked by a bear, and I helped her in annihilating the bear. Do you know the shocking part? I told her that I was her mate. I didn't know how I knew she was my mate. Adolph narrated his dream to Louis.

Louis with a surprised look hugged Adolph, then he said with joy. "I guess you have finally found your mate. I am so happy for you. After all these years you have been looking for a mate.

What does she look like? Is she beautiful? Is she tall or short? Does she belong to this pack?" Louis kept asking Adolph a series of questions.

"I am sorry to disappoint you, I didn't get to notice  all these details" 

"I woke up as I was about to meet her closely." Adolph blushed.

"Thank the goddess you have finally met your mate at the age of 19. I had always thought you wouldn't meet your mate, and you will be celibate forever. You are the first king not to have met his mate earlier."

"It is good news getting to know you finally have a mate." Louis teased Adolph.

"I have to go now, it's almost time for evening duties so I guess this is where we are drawing the curtains of this discussion.

I hope you meet your mate physically soon, and I am curious to know who she is, and what she looks like." Louis grinned. 

"Anyways, I am sneaking out to my usual spot tonight, and I won't be back to the pack till 10 pm. I need some time to myself to relax so I am entrusting this pack to you till I am back." Adolph informed Louis. 

I am not allowing you to go alone to the woods." Louis disagreed. "There are a lot of dangerous things out there, and I would not want you to be hurt by any. The wood might not be safe for you to go."

"I know you care about me, Louis but I need to go. This rest is essential for me, and you know that being around nature makes me relaxed, and increases my ability to think fast and judge well."

"I guess I have to allow you to go then but make sure you are safe out there and be conscious of your environment." Louis reluctantly agreed.

"I will be leaving as soon as you are leaving my room so I can be back before 10 pm."

With a confident look, Adolph declared, "You don't have to worry too much about me, Louis, I am an alpha and a king of this pack. I shouldn't be scared of the wood, instead, the wood should be scared of my presence, and all animals should be and respect me."

"Let me escort you, then." Louis offered.

"Oh, it's okay. I think that would make you a little bit relieved."

Louis accompanied Adolph to the main entrance of the pack, then he returned to the pack, and Adolph headed to the woods.
