015~Drexel

I was about standing up from the bed while Vessa was still snuggling me.
She held my shirt so tight. I gently removed her hands, and her eyelids fluttered.
I don’t want to wake her, neither do I want to leave her sight. But I’ve an impromptu meeting with my council.
She mumbled some words in her sleep. She talks too much, like Milan.
I stood up and her eyes were wide open.
Oh no, this was what I was avoiding. Now unlimited questions will be asked.
“Where are you going to, Drex?” she asked, frowning.
“I’ve been in my kingdom for three days, and I haven’t spoken with my council of elders yet. It isn’t right, so they called for a meeting.”
She nodded while yawning. “I’m still here. Don’t stay too long, okay?”
“Ryvessa, you’ve been weirdly sleeping too much these days. Why the hell is that happening? A cop is supposed to be active, especially the one on a mission,” I smirked.
She frowned. “Hey, forget that. I need sleep, please.”
“Ohh, so you’re not arresting me again, right?
Go for the meeting. You sure don’t wanna go late, right?”
“I’m the Alpha. Early or late, no one questions me.”
She nodded, turning her head to sleep. “I’m going to inform Sky to take you to get your clothes! You okay with that?"
“No!” she screamed. “Who the hell is Sky? Whenever you get back from your meeting, we’ll go get my dress.”
“I’m not coming back today, so you know.”
“The hell...who do I stay with then?”
“You’ll be fine, Vessa. I’ll be back by morning.”
“Drexel, why? I hate staying here alone! I hate leaving your presence!"
“C’mon, mama, stop being childish. It’s just the night. I need to do something else.”
She was frowning already.
“Ryvessa, stop frowning. I’ll be back before you wake up. You can talk to me in your mind through the bracelet when you feel bored. I’ll respond ASAP.”
“But am I going to see your face?” she asked.
“If you wish to, you could tell it. Anything for you, princessa.”
She smiled and I kissed her on her forehead.
Then I started moving out of the room.
“Drexel!” she called me, frowning.
“What’s it again, cop?”
“You know that wasn’t a kiss, right? Come do the right thing!”
I chuckled. “I love how romantic you’re these days, Ryvessa.”
I went to the bed, held her chin, licked her lips. Hmm, coconut lippies.
I kissed her lips, then French-kissed her while she reciprocated.
She loves kisses....no wonder she’s learned how to do it so fast.
I stopped and said, “If I kiss you any more, Vessa, we’re not going to end up with clothes on. So let me hang up here.”
I stood, adjusting my robe, and went out.
Funny how I wasn’t even thinking about what’s ahead. Ryvessa is making me go crazy.
I love her. I love everything about her. I love how freely she’s with me.
When the time is right, I’ll let her know about her twin sister, but right now I’ve a lot of information to dig out. It won’t be easy, and I won’t let go too.
I teleported to the meeting room. They were already seated in their orders..the head of the Beta, Gamma, Omega, my stepbrother, and stepmother.
I walked in and they all bowed except Damon, my stepbrother.
I saw him but chose to ignore.
I sat on the throne and they sat too.
Looking at their faces to understand their expression before I’d say my words.
“Why the sudden meeting?” Damon stood up. I knew the fool was going to speak first.
“You’ve been in the kingdom for about three days now.
You just informed your Gamma servant to announce your official arrival, yet you couldn’t even call a meeting to see how your council is faring."
"Are you there yet?"
“Of course, baby. I’m seated on the throne now, and I love how you distracted me from hearing something!”
“Ohh, okay...that’s good!” she said.
I thought you were joking when you said this thing could make me speak with her anytime.
“Well, now you know I’m being serious. Alright, permit me to handle a case. When I’m done, I’ll let you know, okay?”
“Yeah,” she replied.
I looked over to Damon and saw he was seated already. I smirked. To hell with whatever he said!
“Anybody else? Who has something contrary to what he said?”
They looked at me strangely like I just spoke some foreign language!
“No one else. Don’t freaking delay me, elders. I’ve got a lot to do.”
Gavin, the council chief, stood up. “Permit me to speak, Alpha.”
“Go on,” I answered him.
“You’ve not informed us yet of your mate, and it's getting longer.
I believe you know this is your last year. If there isn't any Luna on stand, we’ll have you step aside as the Alpha of the pack.
Besides, Queen Mother said she talked to Elder Harris’ daughter, your cousin, who will be visiting next week for her to start performing the royal right of a Luna...to avoid you stepping down.”
I looked over to Queen Mother. “Why don’t you give her wolf to your son instead?”
“Now everyone of you listen. I know it has been your plan...or should I say will instead!...that my cousin should be my Luna.
You all have been elders for a long time. You know how the kingdom rules operate! Isn’t that harem? I asked. Because tell me why the hell you would want me to marry my cousin?
Did I freaking tell you I don’t have a Luna? Huh? Did I tell you that I don’t have a mate?
Why the hell will you guys just conclude things on your own damn thinking! Can’t you all just wait till I present her?
I’m the one supposed to be worried about getting a mate.
But why is it the other way round? Why are you all so interested in making my cousin my mate?
I’ve a mate. When it’s time, I’ll introduce her to you all. Get that into your sinking skulls!”
I yelled, my voice thundered loudly. Some shook, some kept their faces rigid.
“Peace in, peace out,” they responded.
I teleported out of the room. There shouldn’t be any call-up meeting for now.
Cancel any meetings involving the council, I told Sky while leaving the palace gate.
