Meanwhile somewhere in Canada
“Son get your butt in the office now! I won’t ask again!”
Everyday is the same old thing. ‘Get your f*****g carcass in the office. We need to go over the plans again. Blah blah blah.’ It gets boring after a while but if I was being truly honest with myself I was kind of excited about the time that was drawing near. The full moon was in two days. Which meant it was her birthday. And we were so close to prepared. All we needed to do was book the flights. I couldn’t wait to see her face I was very briefly able to connect with her and she is gorgeous. A little petite for a wolf but that was totally fine. It made the idea of controlling her that much more delicious. Putting her in chains and giving her a rough f*****g was my dream every night for the past year. And she would cry out in digest and pain, and I relished it.
“I won’t say it again!”
“Alright alright already I’m coming! Sheesh!”
I walked down the stairs to the office passing by servants all of them young werewolf girls. My dad aka our alpha has some...... twisted tastes lets just say. Any young men that opposed him were killed. Women and children were in abundance, but I wanted not just any woman. I wanted her. Unfortunately so did my father. I knew that I needed to take over before he killed me off and ruined my chances of making the chit mine.
I stuffed into the office and saw both of my buddies there along with the beta and third. My buddies and I had been training for a monument like this for a while. I gave the two a nod of acknowledgment before looking at the old men in front of me.
The corner of my mouth hugged upwards before I gave the signal. This was going to be fun.
—Axel POV —
Previous day
“I sure am going to miss this place. It looks great Uncle.” I looked up at the pack house that we just finished building this past week. I had come up to Alaska to help my Uncle with his repairs, but to also work on myself and work towards earning my Alpha title. I had been pretty messed up before coming here. But this past year has definitely helped give me insight to myself and how my behavior was affecting everyone around me. It was quite the eye opener. All I can say is I really hope I never have a pup that acts like I did. Ever.
I turn to my Uncle and give him a warm smile. He returned it without hesitation. He was a very powerful Alpha even if his stature didn’t show it. He lost some of his muscle mass due to the fire that destroyed the old pack house. He has been paralyzed for about 4 months before he finally regained the feeling in his legs enough to get up and move around a little. He had rushed into the fire when he heard a pup cry out from being trapped in a room that had no windows and the door had been covered in fire. Without hesitation he had gone in to rescue the boy and had to throw him out the entrance when a beam collapsed on top of him. The boy loves to this day and always followed him around. (My Uncle that is.) his name is Krane and he happens to be the first one to put me in my place. Even before my Uncle did but that is a story for a different time.
What I was looking forward to, though and also a little worried about, was going home. And it just so happened to be the day before Rosertina‘a birthday. I couldn’t wait honestly. All I hoped was that she didn’t have a mate yet and that she would give me a chance.
My Uncle must have known what I was thinking of since he laughed and patted my shoulder.
“What’s so funny?”
“You are. Turning me my new pack house is great when all you are really thinking about is the one that’s waiting for you at home, and that young lady you keep pinning after.”
My cheeks flushed red, I could feel it. I punched his shoulder lightly, “shut up.”
He chuckled at my reaction when we heard the Luna call his name. We turned to see her walking up with a few envelopes of mail. She must have gone into town since the only way they got any mail was through a PO Box. A few women were putting groceries into their houses which took an army to unload. We werewolves know how to eat.
As she neared she walked up to Uncle and gave him a kiss that would have regular and charged with PDA. She went for a nice deep French kiss before leaving his arms and walking over to me and handing me a letter.
“It’s from your pack but I don’t know who it didn’t say.”
I took it and studied the front. The handwriting looked familiar but I couldn’t quite place it but whoever it was from made Freight, my wolf, perk up a little bit.
“Thank you Luna.”
She rolled her eyes at me and smacked the back of my head lightly. “Oh please. At least call me Aunt will ya? Luna just sounds so... formal.”
I laughed before hugging her. “Yes Aunt.”
She’s patted my cheek before pushing me towards the pack house. “Yeah yeah suck up. Now get. Go read your letter. Go on. Shoo.” She started running after me; trying to swat my ass with the rest of her mail as I ran towards the house. I laughed as I reached the porch and turned around before sticking my tongue out at her. In hind sight that probably wasn’t the look I was going for since I am 24 now, but I couldn’t help antagonizing her. She reminded me of mom, who I missed dearly. WE did video chats every week but I was ready to hug her again. I missed it. All of it.
The pack, my friends, my ROOM!!! My own bed (never admit it though) was much better then the one I am currently sleeping in. I found out later that my precious uncle made my bed out of wood chips and some hardy board with a TINY bit of cotton around that. Yeah just super comfortable. I had come here with a terrible mind set, almost to the point of going rogue, I was so angry. My dad had told me that I needed to learn the privilege of doing things for others in order to learn how to lead without a strict, but fair, hand. To add the terrible bed on top of that was not what I was looking forward to.
But as I made myself watch this pack live in such a harsh environment and how they needed the help of their Alpha to live, it made me realize that there was much more to being the leader then just leading. You had to give your time, efforts, but most importantly, your body. I know that may sound weird but, what do you give when you need to lift stuff for weaker ones, your body. What do you allow others to use when they are tired and need a shoulder? Your body. Most importantly what do you use to please your mate? Your body. Just saying. Okay that maybe isn’t the best answer but it’s my answer and I’m sticking to it.
Now I’m so glad I get to go home and am appreciative of the time I got to spend learning the trade. My dad may be an Alpha but he still asks for advice sometimes from my Uncle. Even if it’s just to confirm what he already decided on.
For now though I put all of those thoughts aside and enter my room which is on the second floor in the East part of the house. And there is definitely an East and a west since it is a freaking mansion. Once I make sure the door is secure, I go to my bed and look at the envelope. Taking a deep breath I slide my finger through the seal and open it up to what looks like a fancy paper with cursive writing. Curiously I pull it out completely and read what looks to be an invitation.
You are formally invited to the coronation of the Healer Rosertina Anna Smithson on Full Moon two days hence. Please attire in all white dressings in celebration of our pure Healer’s induction by Great Mother and the Moon Goddess.
I smiled as I read the invitation which I knew that my mother had written. The addresses I’m sure were written by Rose herself. I felt Freight howl in satisfaction at the thought of seeing her again. The only thing I had to be careful of was my old self making an appearance. If I scare this up I will never live it down. I flopped backwards on my bed and fell asleep dreaming of my petite tattooed princess.
