The Alpha Luna

Lycan King

Ezekiel was just named king of the southern Republic a month ago on his 18th birthday. His father died years ago when he was a small child but, his uncle Brition took the rule until he reached 18. In the mornings before many of the staff and other members of the royal family were up Ezekiel liked to take a run by the river bank. He always walked out of the luxurious white castle, that sometimes felt like a prison.

The castle was white and tall with lots of large windows. Each window had a gold plate that shimmered when the sun hits them. leading away from the castle was a large path with lavish trees, bushes, and flowers on each side. When you reached the end of the path there was a tall gate and fence.

Ezekiel walked out the gate and came to a road if he walked down the road he would come to a little village where all his pack members live but instead he walked down another path across from the castle. He shifted into his wolf and ran down until he reached the river bank. Once he reached the river a wonderful smell hit him, it smelled like jasmine with a hint of peach.

He then looked across the river and saw her. A petite women with brown curls that hit her shoulders. She was bent over doing some gardening. He couldn't understand why she hadn't looked at him yet as it took all his will power not to cross the river and grab her into his arms.

When she finally looked up he seen her bright blue eyes. His wolf Zyander started stirring inside him. He knew he had to meet her and knew she must of been the new Alpha of the Pearl Moon pack. Then he really couldn't believe his eyes because she started to run from him.

"Why is our mate running from us" Zyander said within his head.

"Maybe because she could feel our Alpha Lycan power and became scared" Ezekiel suggested

Alpha Lycan's had a powerful aura that was able to subdue other shifters into submission. Although he felt that this wasn't the issue with the little Alpha female. At that moment he decided that he was going to that ball instead of his Uncle, who was now the Ambassador for the pack. He quickly turned on his heels and ran for his office

Inside the castle was a large main corridor with two sets of stair cases that both lead to the second floor that had a large balcony that overlooked the main corridor and then another set of stairs that lead to the third floor. On the first floor was the sitting room, library and dining room. On the second floor set the Alpha and Luna offices and their rooms. The third floor had other bedrooms.

Ezekiel entered into his office which had his large oak desk and building in book shelf's. He has had a large filing cabinet next to his desk. Ezekiel set down at his desk and picked up the phone.

"Hello, uncle we need to discuss this ball occuring this weekend please meet me in my office."

A few minutes later his uncle entered the room. He was a tall lean man with broad shoulders. His hair was grey with age and his eyes were a pale blue. There was always something about his uncle that made him feel like he was a cold man but he was his father's twin brother which made him just brush off any off feelings about his uncle.

"Hello, nephew what do you mean we need to discuss this alliance ball with the Pearl Moon pack? I thought I was just going as a normal diplomatic gesture and determine if they are truly ready to re-enter our Republic." his uncle asked.

"Uncle Brition I think I should personally meet the new Alpha. I believe that it shows good will that we show respect that a woman can be an Alpha and I discuss all the diplomatic information one on one with her." Ezekiel said.

"You heard she was beautiful didn't you nephew. A pretty face is not enough for us to let them in again. That father of hers is an alcoholic who just brought death and disaster to the Republic. Your father may still be alive today if that man didn't go causing trouble where it wasn't needed.We need to be sure that she doesn't carry those same traits. You do know that her father tried to sell her to me when she was just a child so, this pack allows selling of children which is disgusting to say the least."

"I'm sure she is a reasonable leader. I mean she challenge for the rule as Alpha so, she must be better than her father."

"I'm sure you are right. Well nephew allow me to go with you to assist in the negotiations".

"Ok so be it uncle. That will be all for now"

Brition left the room leaving Ezekiel to his thoughts. I can't believe her father would try to sell her and she didn't finish him off during their challenge. She had every right to rip his head off. Ezekiel thought to himself.

He felt that his mate deserved the best and should be lavishes with the best. He couldn't wait to see her again and to finally have her in his arms. He imagined her wonderful scent again and for a moment he felt like he could feel her but he was quickly awoken from his day dream when his little sister knocked on the door.

"Hey can I come to the ball too Ezekiel. I think it would be so fun getting out of this place for once. Mother said that you decided to go."

"Sophie I think it's best that only uncle and I go. It might be overwhelming for the small pack to have a large number of royal Lycans in their pack grounds. Besides your only 16 and you still have school to complete before needing to be part of the diplomatic stuff." Ezekiel said quickly hoping to keep as many of his family out of the loop of him meeting his mate.

Ezekiel worried that if to many of his family cornered his little mate that she would reject him right away. They can be overwhelming and he wanted some one on one time with her. He wanted to be the one to speak to her and most of all dance with her.
