The Alpha Queen

Chapter 2 - Explanation

~ Davina’s pov ~

After waiting for 10 minutes mom and dad came down looking absolutely stunning together. They really fit together like a glove. I smile at them. They are dressed fancy like I am too. Mom have a nice long dress that hugs her torso and get loser the longer down it gets. Dad have a suite, he likes to dress fancy so he usually have that kind of clothing but today it’s a little extra. They are both dressed in blue, matching each other. They are glowing. They smile back at me.

”Happy anniversary! You guys looks amazing” I said as I got up from the couch. Mom came over to me and gave me a tight hug and kissed the top of my head.

"Thank you, and so do you honey!" Mom said with the warmest smile. You could see the love she have for me in her eyes. Right now a little extra for some reason. It must be because of their anniversary.

"You two are my lovely ladies and you both look stunning!" Dad said with his loving voice and joined in on our hug. I felt so loved right in this moment. I’m so lucky.

”Are my beautiful ladies ready to go?” Dad asked as he let go of us and took mom hand in his. Both me and mom smiled at him and we both nodded. We went out to their car and got in. It was a new Range Rover. I don't really get why they have this car when they life in the city. But they like it and that's all that matters. We drove to the city to a fancy restaurant. We don’t have any problems with money so we can afford the more expensive things in life if we want to. We usually don’t, but today is a special occasion. We where eating and laughing the hole evening. I felt watched but I ignored the feeling when I couldn’t figure out from where and from who. Dad payed and we went home.

”Thank you for tonight, I really had a good time” I said looking at them and gave them both a smile.

”We did too honey.” Mom said and smiled from ear to ear.

"Come here you two and give me a hug so we can end this night in the best way." Dad opened up his arms for me and mom. We didn't hesitate and we both half ran into his embrace.

”Happy anniversary again! Goodnight, sleep well” I said when we separated from the hug.

”Thank you! Goodnight.” They both said at the same time. I went up the stairs to my room and changed out of the dress and washed my face. I looked at myself in the mirror. In 2 days I’m 18. I still feel like 16 tho. I brushed my teeth and went to bed. I checked my phone but it was nothing on it. I didn’t set any alarm because tomorrow is Friday and I don’t have any school on Fridays. It’s because I’m a senior and I’m so far ahead in my classes that I don’t need to be there Fridays. I’m not complaining at all. I was thinking about what I should do tomorrow when I fell asleep.

”We need to tell her tomorrow” I said while looking at the tv. We had gotten into bed after the dinner. Jace had put on a movie but I wasn’t really paying attention so I don’t know what movie.

”I know darling but it will be fine” he reassured me and made me cuddle him. He kissed the top of my head. His eyes was soft as he was looking down at me. His eyes turned darker as he looked at me.

”I know exactly what you need to relax" he said huskily as he got over me and started kissing down my neck. I like where this is going and he was so right. He ripped my pyjamas off and looked me in the eyes. His eyes was black with lust now. I know my eyes matched his. He growled and continued to kiss his way down my body. I arched my back to give him better access to my body. This was indeed going to help me relax I thought as I let out a moan.

I slept like a baby after last nights love making to my sexy husband. He was right and I was so relaxed after so I slept like a baby. I got up and got in the shower. It’s still early, 8. 45 in the morning so Dav is still sleeping. That’s good. I can make breakfast and we can eat and then we can talk. Usually I work on Fridays but today I had taken the day off to have the talk to Dav. I was so nervous my hands where shaking. Jace still had to work in the morning but he was going to come home earlier than usual. I sight and got out of the shower. I took my towel and started to dry off. I looked at myself in the mirror, I looked as nervous as I felt. I know I had to get my s**t together before going down stairs. I took some deep breaths to calm myself down. I looked back in the mirror and now I looked determined. That's better.

”It’s now or never” I whispered to myself as I walked out of the bathroom to get ready for the day. Hopefully it all would go well and I prayed to the goddess that Dav wouldn't hate us.

I let out a yawn when I woke up. I looked at my phone and it said 10 in the morning. I got up and took a shower like I always do. I like my morning routine. It made me wake up in a good mood and made the hole day better. I feel fresh for the day. And with some music in the background it's even better. I jammed along to Hold on with Justin Bieber. I picked my outfit dancing and singing after the shower. Today I choose a pair of jeans and a hoodie, nothing fancy. I paired that with my worn out sneakers. I still haven’t decided what I wanted to do today yet so it’s a good outfit for now. I had this weird feeling about today. I don't really know why so I struggle the feeling off.

I went down to the kitchen and Mom was there. I didn’t know she would be home today. She usually works Fridays and she haven’t told me she would have a day off.

”Good morning mom” I greeted when I walked trough the door. She must have seen the surprise on my face because she smiled and laughed a little.

”Good morning honey” she greeted back still smiling a little but not meeting my gaze.

”I didn’t know you would be home today” I said still surprised as I took a seat at the table and started to put food on my plate. I wondered why mom didn't meet my gaze. I don't have a good reason for her not to. As I started eating, those thoughts was long gone. Mom always makes the best food and I couldn't focus my thoughts. She always makes breakfast like the ones when you stay at hotels. She sat at the table opposite me and started to fill her plate with food too still not meeting my gaze.

”Yes I know, I wanted it to be a surprise.” She said and smiled a little. She was being weird but I ignored it. I was happy that we could spend time together and I didn't want the day to be bad because I'm overthinking.

”Well then, what should we do today?” I answered my mouth full with food. She laughed a little at me, but not hole heartedly.

”I was thinking that later we could go get our nails done if you still feel like it” She said a little unsure and with a small voice. She looked down on her lap. I looked at her puzzled. I was so confused.

”What do you mean if I still feel like it?” She really was acting weird. So I wasn't overthinking before, it's something with her today. I always like to get my nails done, especially with her. She knew that, I never say no to a spa day with my mom. She still didn't look up at me and held her gaze at her lap.

”We need to have a talk first” she said nearly as a whisper and with an unsteady voice. I didn’t like this at all. Was something wrong?

”Uhm okey, what do we have to talk about?” I was now finished with my breakfast and so was she. I know you could hear my uncertainty in my voice as I spoke. But right now I didn't care. She was scaring me.

”Help me put away the dishes and we can go sit on the couch.” She got up. Still not looking at me. It was like she was ashamed? Maybe nervous? Or perhaps both? I just nodded and helped her. I went to the couch when we where done and she joined me. We sat at opposite sides of the couch. I looked at my mom and she didn’t look like her normal self. She is usually confident but right now she looked like the smallest person on earth.

”I don’t really know how I should start this or what to even say.” She started off still not looking at me.

”Okay?” It came out as more of a question than an answer. She looked at me with determination all of a sudden. Now she started to really scare me. I know she could see it in my eyes.

”Here goes nothing..." she started off. Now I'm terrified and just wants her to spit it out whatever she have to say.

"It was important that you didn't know this before your 18 birthday, for your own safety. I promised your parents that." Now I was so confused. My parents? What in the hell is she talking about? She and Jace are my parents? Before I could ask her about it she continued.

"I know you must have questions and you can ask me anything. But for starters I know you don't get what I mean about your parents. So me and Jace are not your real parents." She almost whispers the last part. I couldn't say anything. I just don’t get what she’s talking about.

"You remember my sister and her husband right?" I just nodded slowly as I knew my voice wouldn't work. I started to guess where this was going.

"They where your real parents. And I haven't been honest about the way they died ether. I know I told you they died in a car accident, but that's not at all what happened." She paused as she took a deep breath, I just stared at her. Now I was in chock. There was no better way to describe it. Just utter chock. She glanced at me but looked away again. Probably seeing my expression and how chocked I was.

"They where killed. Your mother Marley, my sister, knew all your lives was in danger and they had wrote us a letter if the worse case scenario did happen, that they would die. And they did. They knew their position wasn’t safe. But there was nothing they could have done. But they wanted to protect you at all costs." She took a deep breath before continued. She got that I wasn't able to talk so she didn't expect any answers.

"In the letter it said to keep you safe and not reveal anything about your past until you turn 18. That's the age where you would know what you are...-" This time I stopped her.

"Wait, what do you mean with what I am?" My voice sounded angry but I didn't feel angry. I felt confused. I haven't felt more confused in my entire life.

"What you are, what we all are, me and Jace too. We are werewolfs." She ended her sentence I interrupted. Wait. Werewolfs?

"When you turn 18 you will get your wolf and be able to shift. You will be able to feel things more differently because your senses will be more heighten. You will be stronger too, well you are already strong thanks to your training, but you will be even stronger. And you will be able to talk to your wolf." I just stared at her. This is absurd.

”We come from a long generation of them. Your parents was the alpha and luna of our pack. It’s like the king and queen of a pack. And well in this case they where the king and queen of all wolfs as well. And I think you can figure out what a pack is” I nodded, I had read and watched werewolf movies before, but I didn’t think it was real. Wait, why did I actually kind of believe all this? I shake my head as if the thought and the tings she was telling me magically would make sense. But it didn’t help.

”I know it’s hard to believe, but you are actually a really strong werewolf, it’s because you have alpha blood in you. And because you are the heir of the royal throne, but we will get to that later. Anyways your parents knew all this and that’s why they didn’t want me and Jace to tell you before you turned 18. They didn't want you to feel the pressure before you needed it." She explained. That I could understand in some way but I don't get why the lies about who my real parents are or how they died. I just looked at her and she shifted a little in her seat.”They knew how strong and powerful you would be one day and that’s why they still wanted to protect you. They also knew that the person that was after them would try to get to you so you couldn't be in the pack, you needed to be hidden away. That's why we moved here and kept a low-key life. But when you feel ready we will go to our pack and you can begin to take over as the new alpha queen of the pack, after your birthday of course.” That’s when I really got my voice back.

”What? You expect me to lead them? To lead other people? And wolfs non the less, I didn't even know they existed.” I asked in disbelief and I was mortified. She nodded her head.

"We have raised you to believe that everything is possible. We even courage you to believe in the supernatural without making it obvious that it existed, do you remember?" She asked and looked at me searching my face to see if I showed any recognition. I don't really know what my face shows right now. It feels like my brain is about to explode. So much information and I don't know how to comprehend it all. I do get what she ment tho, and maybe that's why I didn't have a hard time believing in this. It's just a lot to take in. That the parents I have known my hole life not being my real parentes. That they where royal alpha and queen and that I will be too. That I'm a wolf. Basically my hole life has been a lie.

"When did they die?" I asked. I didn't even know I was wondering that until I asked it. I mean it was a good question tho. No one really told me when before.

"They died when you where 5." Now I was puzzled. I mean I though I was a baby from the way she told me everything.

"What? Shouldn't I have memories of them? Like not a lot but still some?" As a 5 year old you still have memories right? Just not that many. But now as I think of it I can't remember anything before I turned 5. Mom, or rather my now aunt looked a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, about that... We had a witch take your memories away..." She trailed off sounding ashamed I think?

"But why? Why would you do that to me? Take the only memories I have of them..." I sounded heartbroken, and I felt like it too. I mean, they where my parents and I don't have my memories of them anymore.

"We couldn't risk you finding out. And they are not gone forever, you will get them back. The witch told us after you turn 18 all your memories will come back that was taken from you." Now I started to calm. That at least felt good.

"So what do I call you now? Mom? Aunt? Mavi?" I asked the question I had have for the longest. This was all so confusing.

"Thats up to you my dear, whatever you are comfortable with." She said smiling a little. I already know my answer.

"You are my mother, you have raised me and taken care of me as if I was your real daughter so you are therefor my mom and Jace is my dad. I doesn't matter if you are aren’t my real parents, they wanted you to take care of me and you have." I said slowly and with certainty so she would get that I meant it. I moved closer to her and took her hand.

"So you are not angry at us for not telling you?" Mom asked a little suspect but with hope in her eyes. I just smiled at her.

"I get that you guys had your reasons and who would you be not to honor my real parents last wishes? I get it, I still have a lot of questions but you have time to give me the answers. I'm happy tho that you told me before I turned 18 so I know what will happen so I can prepare for it." I squeezed her hand in mine and smiled more.

"Oh thank goddess!" She said with pure happiness and relief and hugged me so tight. I hugged her back just as tight. Then it hit me.

"Wait, Marissa says goddess too, everyone else says godness..." I trailed off as my mind was spinning in overdrive.

"Well about that, she is a wolf as well. She is the daughter of the beta couple of our pack, they are now the ones running the pack until you are ready to take over. They are some of the few people we actually trusts. They also have a son that will be your beta when you take over." She explained. I got that it was something about it she wasn't telling me so I gave her a look.

"Okay, okay, she is watching out for you. Even if you no longer are in the pack you are not entirely safe and she is a good warrior so she could protect you if something was to happen. She transformed some months ago so she already have her wolf." She explained. I'm actually grateful in some way but still a little betrayed as I felt by mom and dad too that they haven't told me anything.

"So she couldn't tell me as well then?" I asked just wanted to make sure. Mom nodded. Okay that makes me feel a little better knowing she couldn't tell me. I still don't know if she's actually friends with me because she likes me or if she just needs to. That explains why she tried so hard to become my friend. But all that is a problem for another day. Right now I only have one question in my head.

"Who killed them?" It came out nearly as a whisper. Mom looked down again. She looked torn.

"That I can't tell you yet. It's the only thing I can't tell you. But I promise you they will pay for it as soon as we are back in the pack and you have gotten the coronation and become the Alpha queen." She said slowly looking at me seriously. I got that I'm not going to find that out now so I didn't push it. The answer didn't help my curiousness at all tho.

"We have waited for 13 years, we can wait a little longer..." Mom trailed off so quiet, like she didn’t want me to hear. But I did. She was right, if mom and dad have known for 13 years and was able to wait, then I can wait a little longer than 5 minutes.

"Let's go get our nails done now mom. I know there is a lot more to learn but right now I just want some quality time with you." I stod up and she followed. She hugged me and I hugged her right back. I'm sure I saw a tear in her eye. I guess she was worried over how I would react. I still feel lucky, but now I want more answers. And I'm kind of exited about turning into a wolf. That would actually be amazing. I smiled at the thought and was so ready to be 18 tomorrow. I will get my wolf!

~ Unknown's pov ~

I watched her when she was out with her family last night. She was looking stunning. She was fit to be my luna. She would look great being next to me, like an accessory. It's one day now before she turns 18. Soon she will be mine. I just have to wait a little longer. Just until she have taken over her pack. I have after all waited for 13 years, I can wait a little longer. I have great plans for us and they are worth waiting for.

During the rest of the wait for her I have time to prepare for her arrival. There are a lot of things that has to be done before she gets here. My father have done a lot but not all that needs to be done. I am grateful for what he have done. I will soon take over from him and everything will be ready.

"When will we get her?" My second in demand asked me. I looked at him irritated. He could feel it but he ignored it as usual when he brings up the subject of her.

"Soon, I will tell you when it's time." I answer him like I always answer, but with a more anger this time. I don't even know why he bothers anymore when he gets the same answer over and over again.

"We will be ready my Alpha." He answers as he leaves me alone to my planning.

Indeed we will. I will not make mistakes as father did all those years ago. I will not let her go this time.
