Chapter 2

Williams POV

 

"I still find it surprising that a young female wolf would take on the younger brother of Alpha Thomas and kill him." My Beta exclaimed as we watched the news of the death of Lewis.

 

When the news came up, I was surprised because it is a well known fact that Alphas as their family all have strong blood, even stronger than the average wolf in the pack.

 

"And from the rumours that have gone around, they say she is a weak wolf." My Beta added further as the news broadcast is rounded up.

 

"Killing an Alphas brother is a treacherous crime that should be known amongst male wolves and not females. I believe they must have done something to her." 

 

The door opens and my Gamma stepped into the room with a sense of urgency.

 

"My King, we have a problem on our hands."

 

 

"Speak." I commanded.

 

"The Rogue King and his cohort are pushing for the Western boaders of the kingdom and a lot of the members in BloodMoon Pack are begging for your intervention." 

 

"Rally up the soldiers and send them off the lands." I ordered.

 

"It is not that easy your highness." I turned to my Beta Justin, so he could explain further. "The Rogues have stationed their base in these areas. If we are to send the pack soldiers from our pack to help the Blood Moon, it would be fatal loss because they are much bigger than our army."

 

I paced around the room silently, pondering over the words of Justin for a moment.

 

"Then we need to create a treaty with other Alphas. Prepare my convoy, we are going to Black Mist Pack." I announced.

 

"Alpha Thomas Pack? He is mourning the death of his brother, I don't think it would be a perfect time to create treaty your highness." Justin stated.

 

"I am the Alpha King and I rule across all the packs in this kingdom. If I decide to step my foot into a pack, I don't think anyone should be able to question my reason. Do what I have asked of you immediately." I ordered and both Justin and my Gamma Derrick stepped out of the chambers.

 

I walked towards the shelves were piles of history books were neatly arranged. 

 

As the Alpha King it is my duty to make sure that there is peace in the land and I am going to ensure such peace becomes the order of the day.

 

I flipped the pages of the book I have been reading; it is about the ancient history of the kingdom and how the rogues came about, when my eyes landed on a picture.

 

Water and Fire mixed together to create a perfection; the ideal symphony that the moon goddess wants and have created.

 

'Do you think we will ever find our mate?' Bailor my wolf asked.

He had been bugging me with this question for the past days and I was slowly getting exhausted from his disturbance.

 

'I already told you, when the moon goddess says the time is right we would meet our mate.' The door opens and Justin enters.

 

"The convoy is ready your highness." He announced.

 

I closed the placed my pen on the page which talks the symphony of the moon goddess, placing a mental note to make sure and revisit that prophecy  when I come back from my trip.

1 Hour later....

 

"It is a pleasure to have you in our Pack my King." Thomas stated, holding up a glass of wine. "I hope your visit here would create profitable alliance for my pack." 

 

"I wish for the same too." We clinged our glass together and I had a quick sip from the wine. "Now if you will excuse me, I would love to use the restroom." 

 

"I will direct you my King." Thomas' Luna suggested, but I stopped her before she would get up to her feet.

 

"That won't be necessary, one of the soldier can show me the way." I gave her a knowing smile before moving out of the dinning table, trailing behind one of the soldiers.

 

We were almost close to the restroom, when my eyes picked up on the sound of lashes and a gentle cry. I stopped in my track and follow the direction of the sound, till it lead me to a room.

 

"What is going on here?" I asked, the moment I pulled the door opened. "Release her at once!"

 

"And who are you to tell me what to do?" I was taken aback by the audacious words of the soldier.

 

"My King, I thought you wanted to use the restroom." The soldier, who had been appointed to take me to the restroom asked, the moment he stepped into the room.

 

"What is the meaning of this? And who appointed this bastard as a soldier?" I was visibly angry, because the young lady on the floor looked like she was going to die any moment.

 

"She killed the Alpha's brother." I looked towards the lady's direction after the soldier informed me. I did not understand why I was taking a keen interest in her, but I did.

 

Alpha Thomas and his wife also came into the room at that moment.

 

"We heard the King's voice and thought it was ideal to come find out what is wrong." Thomas explained.

 

"I want you to hand over this girl to me. She will be under my custody." I instructed Thomas.

 

"But my king, she killed my brother and all I desire is to make sure that she pays for her crime." 

 

"You have every right to be angry over the death of your brother. I want you to understand however that I have given my order and you must learn to obey them...." I walk closer to him. "Except you think it is appropriate to challenge the Alpha."

 

I stared into Thomas eyes and I noticed he was angry, but could not do anything. I understand that he wanted to teach her a lesson, but there was something about this lady that I could not resist.

 

"Fine, she will be handed over to you my King." Thomas succumbed.
