*** Continuation of the flashback ***

'What do you want me to do then? Let her go and leave me on my own. If I have to lie just to keep her around me then I will do it, in a heartbeat!' Prince Alcyd's reply to his best friend through the mind-link.

'But lying to her will only make you lose her once she finds out that we really do not have any idea where her older brother is…' Garrett pointed out the consequence of lying to Selene.

Then Prince Alcyd stared at Garrett as if his best friend will be cut into half with the seriousness of the look on his eyes and returned his stare at Selene

'It will only happen if she finds out! So we must make sure she believes what I tell her. I expect my Beta to act like a Beta, am I clear on that?' a cold shivering retort by Prince Alcyd through the mind-link.

For the first time, Prince Alcyd emphasized Garrett's position and made him feel lower than him. 

Never in the entire course of friendship between Garrett and Prince Alcyd that the Alpha Prince emphasized their difference and position.

'Yes, Alpha! Rest assured that your command is clear.' Garrett with a hint of disappointment reassured their Alpha Prince with his complete obedience to the command given.

Selene was not able to notice the change in Garrett's facial expression since she is completely worried about her older brother.

In her worry, Selene interrupted Prince Alcyd's explanation of how he found out about her older brother.

"What…? How sure are you that he is serving King Lucius?" The surprised reaction by Selene and she continued by asking, "What are you planning to do next? We should not allow him to join the enemy of King Viktor. He may get hurt if it happens that he serves King Lucius."

"Do not worry, I have told my younger brother, Ranku. I have instructed him to assign a team that would continue the search for him. At least now, we have a clue to where we might be able to find him." Further lied by Prince Alcyd

Due to the desperation of finding her older brother, Selene believed everything that her mate said.

Immediately Selene expressed her gratitude to Prince Alcyd and promised him that she will stay in the Golden Moon Pack, "Thank you so much! I promise not to leave the pack and swear my loyalty. As long as you find my older brother. Find him… 

He is all I have got left in this world." A desperate plea of Selene as her tears fell from her left eye.

After hearing everything from Prince Alcyd and expressing her gratitude, Selene excused herself and left the main office.

"I want you to send a message to Ranku. And tell him everything I want him to do for me. Is it clear?" Prince Alcyd tells Garrett.

"Yes, Alpha!" Garrett's reply to Prince Alcyd.

"I do not care what others will think of me. I will do everything just to keep my mate beside me." Prince Alcyd stood by the window side and looked at the vastness of the sky.

A vastness with full of possibilities.

*** End of Flashback ***

-Ring- !

-Ring- !

The school bell rang which signifies the start of their classes.

"The entire lunch break passed by with so much silence and staring blankly from all of you." Georgie pointed out as they stood one by one.

"Just go to your class and stop whining like a little boy." Freddie's reply to his younger brother's complaints.

"Who you calling little boy?" Georgie jumping on his older brother's back.

Selene looked at the blue sky and wondered if how her older brother is doing.

=====================

Meanwhile,

In the royal palace of King Viktor, the king of all Alpha werewolves.

Persephone arrived and went immediately to her private chamber.

The other staff members moved out from the way of Persephone since she does not want anyone blocking her war.

Whispers started to start at the sight of Persephone acting arrogantly around the royal palace as if she is the queen.

Ever since the death of the late queen Esmeralda, Persephone behaved worse towards other people.

No one in the royal palace treated Persephone with the same warmth and acceptance compared to the late queen Esmeralda.

"She is not even the queen and she acts as if she owns the place." Whispered by one of the maids.

"I agree! She is too arrogant and full of herself." Replied by the other maid.

Despite the attempt of the maids to keep their thoughts among themselves and be discreet as possible, Persephone heard the whispering of the maids.

Then she stopped and looked at them with deadly stares. 

Immediately the maids scattered cowardly from their fear of Persephone.

"Insolent fools! Lowlife!" uttered by Persephone while she watched the maids walk away from her cowardly.

As soon as she enters her private chambers, 

Persephone sees King Viktor waiting for her while sitting on the couch covered by the shadows.

"And where were you?" asked by King Viktor with a shivering tone.

"I just visited my uncle, the former Alpha of the wolf pack that our son leads currently." Persephone explained while changing her clothes in the presence of King Viktor.

"I will ask you again. And this time around, you will tell me where were you all this time." A hint of anger could be heard from King Viktor as he asked Persephone once again.

A clap of loud thunder could be heard while King Viktor waits for the reply of Persephone.

There was no hint of nervousness or fear from Persephone at all and continued to dressing herself.

Then King Viktor ran out of patience and confronted Persephone.

"When I am asking you something, you answer me!" King Viktor venting out his frustration to Persephone.

"I already answered your question! What else do you want to hear from me?" unnerving reply of Persephone as she confidently faced King Viktor.

Then a loud slap greeted Persephone.

King Viktor was not done with just the slap, he grabbed Persephone's hair with his left hand and used his right hand to get a tight grip on her soft neck.

"You dare lie to my face? To the King of all Alpha werewolves!" loudly emphasized by King Viktor.

But not a shred of fear nor a blink from Persephone.

The vicious mate of King Viktor, Persephone, stared back at him with so much fury and spite.
