1 hour later.

The Beta turned around to see a black wolf with three golden stripes on his back.

He immediately went on his knees.

"May I know the future Alpha's wolf?" he asked.

"Call me, Ivan." was the wolf's reply in mind link.

"Can we see the pack now?" the Beta asked again.

"Yup!"

Getting this permission, the Beta led the way to the party.

The pack members cheered and danced upon seeing the large, fearsome wolf. This was their future Alpha.

"Ah, he's so robust!"

"Look at that shiny black fur!"

"It's the stripes for me. His legs are sturdy too."

The girls said excitedly.

Some hadn't shifted. The ones who had shifted didn't hear their wolf cry "MATE!" so they knew he wasn't theirs. But maybe someone else was, but who was the person?

Alpha Blake walked to his son's wolf and patted him on the head.

"Good job!" he said with red eyes.

"Alpha, his name is Ivan." the Beta said.

"Woah... such a manly name!"

"Ah, Cupid's arrow!"

Some girls said dramatically.

Others shook their head at the love-struck ladies.

"Shift!" Alpha Blake commanded and the black wolf transformed back to Chase in three minutes.

He stood without clothes and faced the pack. His eyes changed from red to green.

The pack could see a blur in his private places. They couldn't see his nipples, navel and abdomen down to his thighs clearly.

"This is your future Alpha." the Alpha raised his son's left hand up, and the audience cheered.

His mom, Luna Anita, went to hug him.

"My dear son," she whispered.

"Have you found your mate?" she asked.

"My mate isn't here, mum. She must be from another pack." Chase said to the hearing of all.

"Maybe she is among these unshifted hotties." the Luna said and Chase nodded.

"Mum, I'm a bit embarrassed." he mind linked his mom.

"But no one can see you bare darling. There's a blur," she replied back in mind link.

"That doesn't apply to parents and doctors," he mumbled.

"Hahaha. So, my son is this shy?"

"I'm not. Only my mate should see my body without the blur."

"Okay, my boy! Let's get you clothed. " she broke the hug and suddenly carried him on her shoulder.

"Hey, mum. Put me down. This is embarrassing!" he complained.

"Son, it's tradition," she said with a smile.

"What nonsense tradition? You just want to treat me like a child."

"But you are a child. You'll be a man only when you are Alpha and get your mate."

Chase felt defeated. This mum of his!

"Alright, let's have a blast people!" the Beta yelled after the Alpha had returned to his designated seat.

3 years later.

Lavana chewed the special herbs to heal faster. She had just been beaten by two 15-year-old unshifted girls.

"I'm already 19 and still haven't shifted. What the hell is going on?" she thought in worry.

Since last year, the voice in her head did not talk to her at all. Now it's already 5 months into this year and she still didn't shift.
