Queen of all Werewolves

Chapter Eight - Queens Duty

Esmeralda’s POV

After breakfast was over I’ve made my way to my office to work on some Queen duties. My office is big. I don’t know why I’m calling it an office, it looks more like a hall with a golden throne mainly for me and there’s a round oval shape desk on the right side with ten golden chairs around it where meetings are held and on the left, there are couches, bookshelf with books and scrolls. I have also a small desk in front of my throne where I do my paperwork most of the days. I’m in charge of keeping all werewolves under control and out of trouble. When there’s a problem, they come and see me here at my golden throne or I give them a visit at their pack territory. Being a Queen is like being a judge to put an order in the court. The only difference is there are no jurors to define the defendant guilty or not guilty. My job is to listen to both sides of the story and do the ruling myself.

Ash says I’m more like a counselor because the majority of werewolves seek personal counseling and advice. I had many mothers come in seeking advice for their children from my pack. They got tired of asking for help from the Alpha. You would think it’s Alpha’s job to do his duties in his pack but even the Alpha himself can’t deal with women seeking advice. It’s not the Alpha’s job to listen to people complain about unnecessarily things. So the Alpha sends them my way for a better ruling.

One woman complained that his son kept escaping at night to play video games at his friend’s house and came home late. She was stressing too much, she needed to get laid. They say getting laid relieves stress and that’s what this woman did and it worked. As a werewolf, once mated, we are very intimate with our mate or mates and if we don’t have s*x on a daily basis, our wolf will go crazy inside which causes our human to stress a lot.

As I was sitting down on my throne, I was alerted by my border patrol through mind-link that there were some Rogues nearby. I thought I got rid of them all. But eventually, years pass by and Rogues do grow. I’ve decide to teleport myself to the border patrol to see what the issue is. Once I was at the border patrol, I was confronted by my mates. Oh, they look pissed, worried and lust at me.

"Oh, hey mates," I said to them.

"What are you doing here, Esmeralda," asked Brandon?

"I wanted to investigate the Rogues," I answered.

"It is our job to protect you. You must stay back at the packhouse," said Ash.

"But I want to help. I am not a weak little thing to treat me like I’m very fragile. You guys do know I am a lot stronger than you guys," I said while I was getting very upset with them for not wanting my presence. 

"Alright, but you don’t have to rub it in. It hurts," said Ash trying to be funny.

"Oh, is that right? Did I hurt you? Do you need me to kiss your booboo," I asked trying to be sarcastic?

"You’re not funny, Esme. This is serious. There are about ten Rogues roaming around and another strange scent I’ve never smelled before," said Brandon who broke the ice.

"It must be my unicorn," said Melissa when she suddenly appeared all of a sudden with Nathaniel.

"Melissa and Nathaniel, what are you guys doing here and how did you escaped from the guard’s at the front door," asked Ash?

They started giggling, apologizing and took off running back to the packhouse before I’ve spoken to them. But they were too damn fast. I’ve wondered if they sneak their way out or teleported. Hmmmmm. I’ll deal with this some other time. For now, I rather focus on this new scent that is out there roaming with the Rogues. 

My mates and I transformed into our wolves and headed out into the forest to find out what that scent was. As we approached closer to the smell, we heard Rogues arguing and taking bits at each other. The Rogues were also in wolf form. Then we had a clear view of the scene in front of us. There they were ten Rogues and a woman in a black long trench coat almost touching the ground. She had long white hair with blue eyes. Her skin was the color of snow-white. She was arguing with the Rogues.

"You Rogues are so pathetic. What makes you think you can come to this pack territory when you guys are not fully trained? Get back this very instant or I will burn you to ashes," said the woman.

Before we continued forward, the woman cast a spell over them and vanished.

"She’s a witch. What’s going on? Why is there a witch with those Rogues," I asked through our mind-link?

I was just there, pondering to myself and I took a big sniff and scented that these Rogues are new. I have never scented them before. They must be plotting something and I must find out soon before something bad happens.

"Let’s head back boys," I said to them.

Then I’ve turned around and run back to the packhouse with my mates following behind me. It would have been better if I’ve teleported us back but my wolf was bothering me for a run lately. So I let her take over for a while. Once we reached the border patrol, we alerted them about the witch. They got so worried when I’ve said the word witch. Witches can do magic spells and cast them out to harm any living thing. A werewolf cannot stand a chance against a witch. It will take a lot of werewolves to try to take down one witch alone. You have to sneak behind her back while the others are trying to get the witches' attention. It is the only way to take down a witch. I’ve honestly never fought a witch before, so I can’t really say I have a chance to fight a witch or not. I don’t know how strong my powers are against witches. I just hope that will never happen.

Once inside the packhouse, I’ve just remembered about the twins. I’ve asked the guards about my twins escaping and they had no idea that they did. I’ve warned them to do better or else they will get punished. I must find my twins now. Now, where did I put that cookie jar? I’m going to lure the twins with the cookie jar so we can have a serious talk. The twins have to stop sneaking around or something bad can happen to them.
