I nod and do as she says, putting my guilt to the back of my mind for now, I focus on driving.
Alora’s POV
We got to the Middle Plains Pack Territory, and it was beautiful. I could see for miles, there were gently sloping hills covered in wildflowers, we past a beautiful lake that was deep blue and had a rocky shore. The City was a marvel, there was greenery all over the buildings, whether they were small or tall, and they all had roof top gardens. There were areas in the City dedicated to water fountains and plant and tree life, with public gardens here and there. 2
The materials of the buildings were made out of what looked like different types of stone and concrete, with a few red brick buildings here and there. We passed through the City till we got to down town and arrive at a large Luxury Condo Complex. This was were the Alpha of this Pack lived, when we pulled up we were directed to an underground garage. The guest parking was easy to find as it was well marked. Once parked, there was staff that came to lead us to this Pack’s Alpha. O
The Alpha lived on the top floor, occupying the whole floor as his home. The Alpha looked older than I very old indeed, he looked to be a healthy human forty. He was taller than Damien by an inch and wore a dark charcoal three piece Armani suit with black pinstripes. The shirt was light grey silk, paired with a dark grey tie. His hair was waist length and pulled back with a leather tie, there was a few streaks of steel gray in his hair, but it just made him look more distinguished.
He had dark green eyes surrounded by a dark grey rim and a pale skin complexion. His look was gentle, but I had the feeling, that was only because we hadn’t gotten on his bad side. You didn’t get to be an Alpha for as long as he had, without having the strength to back it up, especially with a Pack this large. It made me think on how powerful Alpha Andrew was, as he is the Alpha of Alpha’s. I glance at my mate, someday he would be taking over that title.
Damien bows in respect to the Alpha of the Middle Plains Pack. “Greetings Alpha Logan Lake Windstorm.” Damien says. ” I am
Alpha Damien Moonstar Heartsong, this is my mate Clan Alpha Alora Luna Heartsong.”
I bow at the Alpha in respect after Damien made my introduction. “Greetings Alpha Logan Lake Windstorm.” I say.
The Alpha laughs “Greetings to you both.” He says in a bright and booming voice, then he laughs again. “Here I though that kind of formal greeting had died out a hundred years ago.” he says, amusement in his tone, his eyes dancing. O
He takes a look at me. “Clan Alpha of the Heartsongs are ya?” he says. “Now that is a very old lineage, it goes back to the creation of our Councils.” he says. “And you seem to be quite young, if you don’t mind me asking, how old are you?” He asked me.
I glance at my mate, a little taken aback by this Alpha. His voice had one volume so far, loud, and he wasn’t trying to be rude, far from it, he was being very friendly. “I’ve just turned eighteen a few weeks ago.” I tell him honestly. “I was given this title when I graduated from my High School, and University.” I tell him.
He looks surprised. “You must be one smart little female.” he says. His words should have been insulting, but I could tell he truly meant them as a compliment. He sniffs in my direction, taking in my scent, and his eyebrows go up, with a wide smile he booms
“A Hybrid, well you are certainly very special, and a Vampire Werewolf Hybrid, that’s a powerful combination.”
Damien clears his throat, getting everyone’s attention. “Alpha Logan, I would like to introduce you to Alora’s father, King
Sabastian Dayblood of the Vampires, and his mate, Alora’s new mother, Queen Stephanie Dayblood of the Vampires.” He says gesturing at my parents.
The Alpha looks at them wide eyed “Oh ho! Young female, you are more special than you first appear, how is it I have never heard of you till now?” he asks me.
“That, Alpha Logan…is a long story.” I tell him, smiling despite my grim tone, the happy energy from this Alpha was hard not to get caught up in.
Damien’s POV
My father said I would instantly like this Alpha and he was right, I did. The Alpha was only an inch taller than my six foot eight, but he felt larger than life, because he had such a big personality. When he asked my mate how she got to have her title, her response had surprised the Alpha. I couldn’t help saying aloud “It’s more than just long, what my mate has gone through, will make you angry Alpha.” I tell him.
His smile disappears, and a serious look came to his face. He gives us both assessing looks and seems to think, we all remain silent while he thinks, he looks to Sabastian. “If you wouldn’t mind me asking, why is your daughter’s story one I won’t like?” his voice was less booming, but still a loud rumble.
Sabastian sighs, and there was a sadness to it. “For the longest time, the Werewolf who bore me Alora, lied and said that she was dead. She had spells placed on Alora when she was just a new born that cut her off from her inner selves. They also kept me from being able to feel her life chain, so when I was presented with the evidence of a car crash, and the picture of a dead infant, a male infant, I believed her.” He tells the Alpha.
The Alpha has a dark look to his face now. “What kind of spells.” his voice was a growl.
“Black Magic.” Alora answers his question. I knew she was going for a neutral tone, but I could hear, and feel the suppressed anger behind those words.
The Alpha looks back at her. “How would your mother know how to use Black Magic?” Alpha Logan asks her.
“That female….was never my mother…she may have born me….but she was never my mother.” Alora says in a quiet voice, glaring at the ground, her tone was cold and angry. I felt her fury, was the opposite of her tone, it was fiery hot, a burning in her chest. Thoroughly laced throughout that anger, was pain…so much pain.2
I grab her hand, giving it a squeeze, it gets her attention, her gaze meets mine, and I feel her calm instantly. After a moment of staring, she smiles at me, love in her eyes again as she let go of her anger and fury. “She’s gone my Starlight, and I’m right here by your side.” I assure her through our mind link. I feel the comfort and warmth my words gave my mate, and I felt a scenes of pride at being able to give my mate that. 2
“I’m thinking I need you to tell me your whole story young Alpha, so I can avoid any more triggers.” Alpha Logan says, his voice a low boom, but his tone held compassion. This Alpha genuinely cared about the pain his words had caused my mate. O
She looks up at Alpha Logan, her look became sad, after a moment of thinking, she nods. The Alpha nods back and then gestures us to follow him, he leads us to a study that looked like my father’s. Only the wood was black, and the cushions on the furniture were in dark and pale light greys. They were a soft dove grey, like a cloud with just a touch of a storm.
The floor was white marble with glittering silver veins. The coffee tables in his sitting area were all glass tops on thick gunmetal gray frames. There was no fire going, but the temperature outside was a comfortable warmth. The Alpha had the windows, and the doors to his balcony open and the wind blowing in was making the white sheer curtains flutter around.
The wind carried the scents of his balcony garden, one of the plants was honeysuckle, and the other lilac. It was such a surprising coincidence, that those flowers would be here, after having had them in products at the Hotel six hours from here, In a human city no less. But those scents had a calming effect on everyone as they took their seats.
“These scents….they had them in the oils and lotions at the Hotel.” Alora said aloud. She takes a deep breath, drawing the scents into her lungs, then slowly lets her breath out, a feeling of peace was now coming from my mate. “I love the honeysuckle and lilac, they’re so calming.” she says.
The Alpha laughs. “Well I’m glad you like them, my wife owns an essential oil business, and her sister will put them into bath and skin product, they then sell the products and oils all over, they have a website now. Honeysuckle and Lilac are the signature scents.” he says, obviously very proud of his mate, and very much in love judging by the affection I could hear in his words.
The door to the study was opened, and two wolves came in, one looked vaguely familiar. It was his scent and his voice, that made me realize this was the wolf who pulled me over, him and his partner were in plain clothes. “Alpha Logan, I was told to report to you” the wolf said.
