Our Time

Story Time

I woke up to a knock at my door. “Rosalie! Are you still sleeping? Its already 9 am. You missed training.” Said Thomas.

F**K! I missed training. I have never slept in before. I am up before my alarms. I got up and went straight to the bathroom. I took a quick shower and got dress. I opened the door and Julie was standing there. She looked like she was about to knock but stopped herself when I opened the door.

“Someone is late today” she snickered.

“Oh S**T up! I don’t know why I didn’t get up.” I spoke.

“Maybe you’re a little overwhelmed.” She spoke.

Maybe Julie is right. I was getting ready to take over the pack, my father wanted truce with the other pack, now I am to be married. We are trying to combine 2 packs as one. Trying to convince people it’s a good idea. Goddess, why are we doing this?

Julie put her hands on my shoulder. I didn’t realize I was sitting on my bed. Suddenly, she pulled me into a hug. I could feel tears fill my eyes. I am just overwhelmed with all the alpha stuff and being a good daughter. I just want to make sure everyone is cared for I am not worried about myself.

“I am sorry Rosa. I will never fully understand you, but I just wanted to let you know we are always sisters. Life will always figure itself out. I know you! You are head strong. You can do this.” She encouraged me.

“Thanks Julie. It’s just that mom and dad have some more explaining for me today. I hope it’s nothing serious.” I spoke.

After about 10 mins, she gestured for me to go eat breakfast. So, we linked arms and headed to the dining room for breakfast. Everyone was there, my father smiled brightly at me, and my mother looked a little worried.

“You feeling ok Rosalie?” Said my mother.

“Yeah, I will adjust to this in time.” I said while sitting down. Julie sat next to me. I started eating breakfast while everyone was chatting and laughing. I just feel so left out right now. I want to know what is going on.

As I was lost in thought my father mind linked me.

‘Darling, why the long face?’

‘Sorry dad, I guess the realization that I am going to be leaving my home is starting to settle in.’

I can hear him chuckling in my head.

‘It will be ok Rosalie. I promise you. This is what is best. After breakfast we can go over pack issues in the office. You love to do that’

‘Actually, I would like to finish our conversation from yesterday’

As I said that he choked on his water and started coughing. My mother tried to help him. He put his hand up and said he was ok. Then he looked at me, he looked at Vincent and said, “Let’s have a meeting in my office after breakfast about pack issues.”

I saw Vincent nod his head yes and glanced over at me with a smile. I am sure my dad noticed it because he cleared his throat. I was going to get a drink from my orange juice. Then I realized I never got my tea. I was going to ask about it, but my mother mind linked me.

‘You won’t need the tea today. I will tell you why later.’

I looked at her as she smiled at me. I smiled back and just drank my orange juice. I finished off my meal and excused myself to the bathroom. After the bathroom I was heading to the Alpha’s office to meet my parents. I rounded the corner when I was met with a handsome man with hazel eyes. It was Vincent.

He was just standing there staring at me. I felt my heart race and it felt like it was just me and him. We were just staring at one another. He started walking towards me, picked me up, and pinned me to the wall. I could feel his body press against mine and he leaned in close. You can smell the rain and freshly cut grass. I felt like I was on cloud 9.

“You’re beautiful. Would you like to go on a date with me?” he said.

“Where would you like to go?” I said back.

“I have never been here would you like to give me a tour?” he asked

“I would love too.” I spoke.

Just then he put his forehead against mine and closed his eyes. He started going in to give me a kiss, but my father cleared his throat. Vincent gently put me down and turned to my father who was at the end of the hall at the doorway to the Alpha’s office. I was embarrassed as I was trying to adjust myself. Nothing happened.

“I am just going to pretend I didn’t just see that. I would actually like to have a conversation with both of you about the white wolf people are talking about.” He told us.

White wolf? What is he talking about? This did catch Vincent’s attention because he perked up. I suppose this white wolf matters a lot. Vincent gestured me to go first. I could feel him looking at me from behind. We got in and my mother was already sitting to my father’s left side. I sat down and Vincent sat next to me.

“Alright, What about this white wolf?” He asked. Seems like he likes to get down to the point. I like that.

“Well, it was once said that there are 2 rare wolves. The white wolf is the strongest because it was the wolf of the goddess. Her mate on the other hand is the silver wolf.” My father said.

Whatever my father said stunned Vincent. I could feel the tension at the silver wolf. What about it? Why are we worried about the white and silver wolfs? They no longer exist.

“The silver wolf is the white wolfs mate. He was the king that ruled during the time. They said that the first pack that was made was Moonlight. It was handed down to the children of the white and silver wolf. After a few generations the power of darkness and greed overcame some of these wolves. The started fighting again and the incident of the Beta a few years ago killing the Alpha and Luna surface.” He spoke.

“Why do I feel like this is the full story?” I spoke.

“My dear, the reality is we were told a silver wolf male would be born. Then a white female wolf would be born shortly after. They are to be mated. They are going to rule for an eternity.” Said my mother.

Eternity… Sooo. They will be immortal. I thought that was for Vampires only.

“If you want the full story, we can do that.” Said my father.

“YES!” responded Vincent.

“OK. There was a time when the God decided to create life. The Goddess was pure and could shapeshift into a werewolf. Her wolf was pure white with a full moon on her forehead. The first thing she asked for was to have someone who would be bound to her for eternity. This is how mates were created. The Gods granted her this wish to have a mate for her lifetime. He was a Sliver wolf and shine like the stars in the sky. They were destined to create the life of werewolves. They did successfully. They left all the packs here and went back to the Moon. For a while all packs lived in harmony until there were attacks and wars for more land and more power. It was the greed that took over. It started to get bad, so the Moon Goddess came back to settle things. She deemed Moonlight Pack to be the royal pack. They morals were the best. It was the elder brother that was pure of heart and ruled with fairness. King Leroy Windsor. His brother was beta….” My father stopped for a moment. You could tell it was not an easy topic.

“His brother is Anthony Windsor. He believed he would have been a better ruler than his brother. He was shallower and was a cruel to the lowest of our kind. Unlike King Leroy who showed fairness even to lone rouge wolves. Anthony would demand they be killed on the spot. He was more focus on keeping and taking lands. He was made beta because King Leroy believed he would change. King Leroy found his mate Queen Rani. She was beautiful. After they married, they had 3 children. A daughter, Alexandra, and twin boys, Darius, and Basil. Anthony was mad and believed he should be with power and poisoned the king and queen. Then he determined that their children must die if he were to rule. Our packs surround theirs for protection. When Golden Moon and Silver Moon heard of his betrayal, we acted fast and decided to attack and get the thrown back. Little did we know it would cause a long battle to see who would rule after we won.” Said my father.

“It was mostly the Luna. They were fighting to be Queen. They both believed they would be able to match the energy of Queen Rani. They could not match the energy and it created tension. They blinded the alphas with their greed to be queen. Now we want to combine power. I don’t want you to think we are bad for having you two marry.” My mother said.

“I don’t think it is bad to want to end a decade long war. I want peace for our packs.” I spoke.

“Rosalie, there is more. The white wolf has returned. The day before you were born the Moon Goddess came to me. She told me you were to be queen one day. You must be ready for the day you are to rule endlessly. You must not let greed blind you.” My mother said.

“Rosalie. The day you were born you were glowing brightly…” My father paused for a moment. “Rosalie. You are the white wolf.”

In that moment I froze, in the corner of my eyes you could see Vincent grip his chair. You could tell he was a little irritated. Since we already told them we do not know a while wolf. There was a moment of tension but then I saw Vincent relax.

“This silver wolf. Was meant to be with the white wolf after all.” He mentions.

“Yes. They are to create a strong bond and rule like King Leroy and Queen Rani.” My mother responded.

“They are creating a stronger bond and finally bring peace back. But we always known that there will always be darkness in the shadows.” Said Vincent.

That got me thinking about what we will do if we were to rule like King Leroy and Queen Rani. They put trust in their own family. But they were betrayed. Would that happen within our own family?
