The alpha’s chosen mate

Chapter Two

Liam's POV

Going through the tons of documents that was begging to be stamped,I had a lot of work to do in the office ,the everyday life of an Alpha,it was getting hot so I turned on the AC, played some music, just then my Beta walked in to give his report looking at his countenance, I could tell something is wrong turned off the sound system and gave him permission to give his report. "Alpha the rogues are getting closer to our borderline,the frost heart pack our neighboring pack reported 12 deaths of their warriors including male and female,that died while preventing them from entering their land.

"Is that bad?"

"Yes sir"

"How close are they to our border?"

"About 500 miles"

"How many warriors are on the border?"

"Thirty full grown capable and strong wolves sir"

"How many rogues are we seeing?"

"Ten upfront,still trying to figure out what they want."

"You know what they want Henry! They come close to our border you kill them on sight,we aren't outnumbered,we don't negotiate with rouges"

"Roger that sir"

"You can go"

One thing I love about Henry is that not only he is my best friend, he worries about the state of the pack and my well-being, putting his life at risk he's one noble wolf, people tend to tell him matters, they love him because of his cool character,he teases me most of the time, with what people say about me, that I have an aloof aura, frightening presence.Well as an Alpha I wouldn't be able to control and maintain my position if I wasn't trained that way.

The issues of the rogues have been coming up lately,rogues are werewolves who are not part of a pack, they are either rebels or they chose to live independently. But it seems these rouges have banded together and I need to do something about it, they aren't coming near my pack.

After finishing some of the pack duties,and making sure things were okay at the border,I went home,the compound is a secluded place it's where higher officials live,my place is more encircled with Tall trees surrounding it,a winding pathway,an entrance gate crafted from gnarled oak,an intricate lattice,moss covered stone walls, it's specifically designed to suit the Alpha and his family,and to show the dominance, authority and wealth the Alpha has.it is not just a dwelling it is the heritage of the pack.

"Welcome Alpha" "Hello Jane"

"Where is my mom?" "She's in her room" "Okay, thank you."

I went into my mom's room,she was reading a book,one of her many hobbies, went to her and gave her a peck on her cheek.

"Liam how are you?"

"I'm a good mom," I said as I rubbed the back of my head.

"Liam,I can tell something is wrong"

"It's nothing to be bothered about mom."

"Liam, do you think I'm also not capable, because of my condition?" My mom said as she rolled her wheelchair towards me.

My mom have been paralyzed for some years now, after the death of her mate my father,the pack doctor at that time said she is lucky that's she's alive,she could have died since her mate is dead, something about the mate bond that annoys me,both wolf are connected if something happens to one it happens to the other,this is why i will never have a mate,i would rather be a mateless wolf,than let my pack suffer my mom have been sensitive to issues lately,she blames herself for not being there for the pack, so i decided to let her in on it.

"Mom, you are the strongest and most capable wolf I've ever seen."

"I'm not Liam,I wasn't there for my mate,I failed my pack."

"Don't think that way mom,you didn't fail us,you are the strongest wolf i have ever seen,rogues have been loitering around the border but we've taken necessary measures."

"I'm sorry son for not being able to support you." "You being here is a support" I gave her a hug and helped her relax on her bed,we chatted for a while before I retired to my room.

I woke up very early in the morning did my exercise routine,it was like a free day or let me say i decided to take a break before i collapse due to the stress,i took my bath to eradicate the sweat from the exercise went to the dining room, to have breakfast fast with my mom,we were having waffles with flax and almond butter and a scrambled egg. My mom was silent, playing with the utensils she wasn't eating, I'm sure something is on her mind she must be worrying about the issues with the border,but she didn't have to bother herself, Henry had called earlier to tell me the rogues had back down, seeing they were outnumbered. "Mom the rogues have backed down,you don't need to feel bothered about it."

"Is that so?"

"Yes mom, Henry called earlier to tell me." "I feel relieved son."

"I know"

"I haven't seen Henry in awhile, invite him over some other time."

''Okay mom, I'll."

"Liam you haven't found your mate yet?"

My mom had just spoiled the serene atmosphere. The topic was something I didn't want to talk about,"No mom I haven't,I guess I don't have one."

"Every wolf has one son, I'm sure she'll show up soon,we need a Luna." I nodded at her response, "well I hope she never shows."
