My Little Mate: The White Wolf

TODD'S POV As the sun was beginning to set, I let out a long and loud yawn. I had been going through paperwork since 4 a.m. and I was exhausted. Being an Alpha requires a lot of work and effort. Being the Alpha of one of the biggest packs in both the Northern and Southern clans irked me even more work. I needed to take a break but I couldn't. I had not solved the issue at hand yet. "Joel, are you done with the research and interrogation of the rogue," I asked through our mind link. I am met with silence. " Come up to my office now," I ordered. Joel was my best friend and the Beta of my pack. I was the Alpha of the Tsuna Blood pack, the biggest and richest pack in the Southern clan. We were known for having the best pack warriors. They could also give my pack the title offer of the most peaceful and orderly pack. Anyone who knew me personally would surely describe me as a person who loved to follow things in an orderly way. This trait, therefore, was also exhibited by my pack members. This peace and order I cherished was being threatened by a group of rogues. In the space of two weeks, I had lost eight pack members. Each of them left with a piece in my heart. The mind link I shared with my pack members had been filled with sorrowful thoughts the past weeks. The once happy and cheerful pack members I had grown to be with, had been replaced with gloomy faces. All this threatened my sanity as an Alpha. Joel's voice and entry to my office brought me out of my deep thinking. " He refused to say anything, Todd. We have used all our coercive methods on him to make him talk but he yielded to none. Interrogating him is a lost cause at this moment. He is close to death now due to the silver chains and the wolfsbane injected into his system." Anger was an understatement to what I felt right now, I was at boiling point. I banged my hands on my desk, breaking it in the middle. This was not enough to release the anger and frustration that was building inside me. Just when I felt I had my hands on the answer to the issue, it just slipped off my hands again. I have never felt so pissed off in my years of existence. Killing these rogues wasn't the issue but the more we kill, the more they come and harm my pack members. "We might have a solution to this, though I think you might not like it," Joel said. It was very evident on his face that I wasn't going to like the idea " It's our best shot at this." He tried to assure me. "What is our best shot at this," I mumbled. I was met with silence once again. " Spit it out!" " We could seek help from Rseundo Cove Pack. They have the best trackers, we would be able to find out the hideouts of these rogues quickly." The moment I heard the word 'help', it felt like a blow to my name and reputation. "No! There has to be another way." I'd rather keep looking for solutions than seek help from the egoistic Xavier. Surely, there had to be another solution to this problem. I looked at my Beta, Joel and he gave me the 'Are you serious ' look. Just as I was about to defend myself, my heart stopped beating and I felt something bad happening. I opened up my mind link immediately. "Alpha!" a panicked voice broke into my mind. I was being mind-linked by a pack member; a warrior. " What is wrong, Calm down." What could be the issue now, just then I feel another piece of my pack break. ' Not again." I growled. " Who just died?" With no time to answer that question, I shifted and rushed to the pack hospital. On getting there, I saw a lot of my pack members wailing. I went behind a tree and shifted back to my human form, as I rushed inside the hospital. On the bed, Crystal, one of the most loved children of the pack was lying lifeless. Her stomach ripped open and her inside spilled everywhere. The chocolates she offered me two days ago were still on my office table untouched. I turned around not being able to look at the scene anymore I turned and faced her parents with tears in my eyes. Their eyes carried the emotions they felt; lifeless, hopeless, and full of sorrow. This look finalized my decisions. I had to seek help and I had to do it urgently. "All males above 18, who have shifted should be gathered at the Crimson hall in ten minutes." My voice boomed in my mind link to all the pack members. In that ten minutes, I had to let my wolf out. I needed to ease my frustration with running. I dashed into the dense forest, and each stride of mine purged the intensity of my emotions. I let go of all the emotions I had been bottling inside and thought of the next step I needed to take. When I finally felt exhausted, I let out a howl to the moon which my pack members also reciprocated. This prepared me with an unwavering determination to protect my pack. Reaching Crimson Hall, I saw the mass population and once again I felt the need to protect them. " You all would have an idea of why we are all here. For the past two weeks, our once peaceful home has been turning into shambles. A cankerworm in the form of rogues has eaten into our orderly system. We have lost the lives of our siblings, children, and parents. We can't go on like this. So I have decided to go with twenty people, whether warrior or not to the Rseundo Cove Pack to learn from their best trackers." My speech was interrupted by mumblings and chatters from my pack members. I made a sign for order and the hall was once again quiet. " This has already been decided, if you are interested, meet the Gamma to put down your names. We leave in three days." I dismissed the meeting and went to my office to write a letter to the Rseundo Cove Pack about my arrival. After writing the letter, I sent a message through my mind link to my Beta, Gamma, the elders of the pack, and my chief warriors. " Preparations should be made now. All hands should be on deck. Joel, send in the messenger to fetch the letter. Elders of the pack make arrangements for the means of transportation. All the warriors selected should not be seen on the training ground until the departure date. Get all your weapons and equipment ready." With this, I called it a day as I locked my office and headed home. My wolf had been uneasy since my announcement, I hope this visit went well.
