Blue's pov
Being Alpha of this pack is not as nice as I thought it would be, I wa still learning even though I have been preparing all my life, I was sure that I wasn't ready so I had asked our parents to help us out. My parents had not traveled so much this year as they focused on helping me, the thing I was happy about was I wouldn't have to travel as much as my parents. Our pack was the biggest pack that meant a lot of packs would seek help from us, my parents were always ready to help and would aid even the council if they were needed, our elite warriors mostly traveled with them to train other packs or fight if others needed help either with war or rouges and since now their are retired as our pack leaders they were going to focus more on the help side so I wouldn't have to travel as much, I thought ruling with my friends was going to be easy, to be honest with you I wouldn't have needed that much help from our parents but for the past two years my life has been lonely , since the day Orion started avoiding me things became worse, all of my friends started avoiding me in the end they said they didn't want to be friends with me, they would help me lead the pack but that's where it ended and if I was not happy with that I could pick out new leadership but I couldn't do that if Zander's anger is anything to go by I wondered if my parents would look at me the same if they got to know the truth, I also knew that even though they hate me they had the pack's interest at heart, as it is Zander and I hardly talk he only comes out when it's necessary other than that nothing, I'm sure he would leave me if he could, I know he thought about it a few times but the only reason he didn't explore it further was he wanted to protect Hope from me, even my wolf didn't want to be with me. Someone had told my friends how I had forced Olive and Faith to submit whenever I found them trying to help Hope, the truth is I didn't like the fact that they were always ready to defend her and with how Zander would get annoyed with me bullying her it drove all sense out of my mind up to a point where I would forget that they where sisters to my friends and later mated to my other friends and also my friends . I was so focused on making Hope miserable I lost all my friends, they didn't even try to hide it till everyone started to notice it but I lied saying we wanted to focus more on the pack since it was our first year as leaders and if asked they would tell people to ask me. I've tried to make amends or speak to them but it hasn't changed anything, all of them started addressing me with my title even before I was made Alpha, I try to tell them it's okay to call me by my name as we are friends but they refuse, I've not heard any of them call me by my name for two years. The only constant person in my life was Beth so even though Zander hated her I had gone back together with her and I'm guessing that pushed him to the edge, Even though we were together she knew I wasn't exclusive with her. My parents have been inviting other packs to parties and I think it's an attempt to find me my mate they even suggested I visit other packs to look for my mate but nothing has changed, I might not have friends but I still didn't want a mate my life was my own I didn't need anyone to complete me. Beth suggested that I take her as my chosen mate and I could continue to leave my life the way I am, I was seriously considering it until I heard a rumor that she had found and rejected her mate when we hosted a party with another pack, I heard he was one of the warriors that came with the Alpha, I asked her about it but she refused but there is a look about her like someone in pain so I've been avoiding her again I wanted her to be sure this was something she wants not because she wanted to make me happy, I kept myself busy and threw myself into training and work, I've been with the elite warriors to train with them for a few days . The elite warriors were the best of the best we would host a tournament every year to choose the best warriors to join the elite, it was a great honor not only to the warrior but his family. It was not only concentrated on the new warriors but every warrior so most of the warriors kept training so they could be picked on the next tournament to be elite warriors it was also an advantage for our pack because it meant our warriors were always in top from. Before I left I has announced that Hope's birthday was going to be a big event for the pack not because I wanted to but I had overhead some omegas comments on how I was a bad alpha who couldn't even treat his sister right and how most of them were planning to leave as soon as my parents leave, I was far enough for them not to hear me or smell me, however I could hear them perfectly with my alpha hearing, my senses where sharper and stronger than others. I did not say or do anything to them because I still wanted to make a good impression on my parents and I also knew them leaving as soon as my parents do will show how horrible of an alpha and how weak of an alpha I was.
