The white wolf

“The alpha of bloodwood? There is no blood wood pack?” I tell my father, “not anymore, alpha Jerome, he was the alpha, he became obsessed with the power he felt in that room that day, he wanted it for himself. He was the rouge alpha who became king Jerome” “but how can someone become obsessed with power he feels, if it came from the king and queen how could he get it? How did he become the king? How could my mate possibly be a royal” I ask him. “I’m not sure how he did it, just rumours from other alphas. The story is that he got the help from a witch to make his wolf stronger, once the princess was born and he lead his pack, blood moon to the castle, they tore the place apart looking for the princess. He wanted her when she came of age. but the queen and princess were killed trying to flee, some of his pack had never seen the royals, they didn’t know who they were and killed them. The king had supposedly found them and went crazy, shifted and dragged them away, he had only been spotted a few times after that at a cabin but after a while people only saw a rabid wolf that attacked anyone that came near the cabin, I believe he is still there. If your mate is from the royals, she must not have been in the castle at the attack she looks around 18/19, maybe just a baby when it happened, when did the council say they would be here?”

Just as my father asked there was a knock on the door, “come in” I tell them, two older men walk in with my beta, “hello alpha Shane, I am council member Jacob and this is council member Ivan” me and my father both stand, “hello council members, I wasn’t expecting you till tomorrow” I say. “I was very intrigued to hear about the gold flowers you described, and the mate you claimed was a white wolf?”councilman Jacob says. I reach into my drawer and lift out the flower and sit it on my desk, councilman Ivan comes straight over looking, after a few moments he stands and picks it up gently, then says “this flower is extremely rare, this is real gold, these flowers are normally found when gold is near the surface, flowers can sometimes soak up the different metals in the soil, change colour or have small fragments inside the petals, this flower seems to have more than small fragments of gold in them, these are pure gold, this single flower could probably be worth thousands, where did you get this?” He says, Jacob looks like he is in deep thought, my beta has a huge grin on his face, then mind links me “I told u it looked like real gold” “shut it” I say back, then turn back the council members.

“My mate passed out in pain and in distress, these started to grow around her, when she woke back up she shifted into a white wolf, was extremely fast I might add but she has no wolven heritage, her mother was a witch and father human”. Council member Jacob comes and takes the flower and then him and council member Ivan’s eyes gloss over like they are mind linking, and then they are done councillor Jacob says “I would like to meet her, find out for myself, the only person I ever seen make those types of flowers was the late queen, the white wolf you described must be a royal, that with the powers described and this flower, she is either a direct descendant from a wolf royal, not a witch royal, an actual wolf blooded royal or she can’t be a white wolf, how certain are you she was white, any colour on her at all?” “Yes she was white, except her tail, the very top of it was black, but the rest of her were white with ice blue eyes, I don’t think she had changed before, she couldn’t stand or walk at first like it was all new, she can’t be lying that her parents are just a witch and human, why would she do that” Jacob sits on one if the chairs in-front of my desk and tells us “ the colour on the tail sounds like the marks the royals had with their mates, if she were a royal she would be in danger, king Jerome doesn’t want the council running things with the packs, the late king lucian put this council together, to help the packs and enforce the laws while he and the queen made piece with other territories and created peace with the humans so that we could both live together and in peace, king Jerome, doesn’t want that, he wants to rule everyone and everything, if he could get his hands on a royal by blood he could legitimise his thrown and we would have no choice, and the council would be disbanded and we all would just be an army, no more packs, just one big one.” “Not just that Jacob, these flowers have power, someone attack me so I can check something” Ivan says, my beta stands “I’ll do it,” I shake my head at him , this man loves to get bloody. “Go on then” I tell him. He then charges right at Ivan raising his hand but instead of his punch landing he’s flung back against the wall, in Ivan’s hand was the flower, but it was growing more brightly than it was before and then turns to ash before our very eyes. “What just happened?” My father immediately asks, “I believe these were protection flowers, gold is the royals trick, why they were rich and there was no poor packs, they helped everyone but the power they had made them royals, you see white wolves can have powers, nobody else can replicate, they can create nature and use it to their goals I seen the king catch a man trying to run from a murder wasn’t even near the man, was miles away at the time, they can use the elements, make special charms, make cures, Human witches tried to re-create these but it never worked, when royals are in danger, nature helps them, when your mate fainted, with the pain and distress you described your mate feeling her powers would create a safety net, such as flowers in this case, if you had bad intentions you would not have gotten to her, these flowers once used fade. And more would’ve grown in its place, as ur mate is okay, no more flowers will replace this. It would have eventually dissolved on its own now that it was no longer needed to protect her. The queen could do this but… I never seen her or heard of her creating a bed of them with a protection charm. I seen her make a bed of gold roses to help a poor pack but when she did a charm it wasn’t more than 5 at a time. the king could do maybe 8 at a time, as all white wolves could control nature, when the queen mated the king she gained powers and her grey coat got lighter but not white as the kings as she wasn’t a blood royal” Ivan tells us.

“Where is she” Jacob asks, I check the clock and say “probably at dinner, I got my gammas sister to show her where to get something to eat” I then mind link my beta and ask him to go to my mates campsite, told him what she told me” “got it, I’ll go get her back and try find out why rouges were there” and he stands and leaves, “I’ll show you where she is” we head to the dining room, my father comes as-well.
