The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

Under the shade of a tree from a distance, Selene prepares herself before deciding to finally enter 'THE PERKS' tavern. She checked the scroll and her favorite weapon, the twin daggers.

Fluffy wagging his tail, waiting for Selene to instruct him to finally hide in her shadows as he usually does.

Fluffy knew Selene is too pre-occupied in the preparation so her guardian wolf looked around to check if there is anyone looking around that may take notice of him and Selene. When he finally sees that the coast is clear, he immediately jumped within the shadow of Selene.

Selene felt Fluffy enters her shadow "Sorry bud! I had to prepare some other things too. Just wait for my signal if I will be needing some backup okay. Do not reveal yourself without my approval! We cannot make others get curious about us since we are also avoiding any attention to ourselves."

Fluffy barked in approval while he was hidden in her shadow.

'Sylvia! you have been silent lately. Will you give me a hand? just in case some unexpected turn of events may arise..... Sylvia?'

'So now you want me to speak?' Selene's wolf sarcastically responds.

'You are still upset with me? for running away from that Alpha Loser? Come on girl! Stop being grumpy with me, will you?'

'For your information, he is our M.A.T.E ! not ALPHA LOSER! Do not worry, of course, I will step in once things get messy, and once I sensed you cannot handle it anymore. You are my responsibility so I have to make sure that you are covered'

'That's my SYLVIA! Thanks, girl! I know I can rely on you.' Selene openly expresses her gratitude towards her wolf Sylvia.

'Well, If only you did not run away from our mate and let him help us then it would be easier for both of us. In terms of strength and resources, he is much capable of giving us a hand and make everything easier for both of us. Not to mention, HE IS A FREAKING ALPHA PRINCE!'

Selene immediately shut Sylvia down and started her way towards the tavern for the supernaturals.

As Selene enters the tavern, she could sense how busy the tavern can be even in broad daylight. The presence of each Armored Barbarians standing at the four different corners of the tavern is very apparent for Selene.

Selene thinks how secured the premises is if there are beings like the Armored Barbarians guarding the place to ensure no violence may take place. The owner of every tavern is provided by the Altum Council, the Council of the Supernaturals, with some provisions and compensation in order to support them in securing a safe space for every supernatural being to hang out without worrying about any danger and discrimination. It may be open 24/7 but the security is most re-assured with some very rare high-powered anti-magic weapons which were provided by the Altum Council.

Sounds of toast and busy conversations bustling around the special tavern as Selene tries to scan the premises for any hint of the presence of her employer, the mysterious warlock. She looks around and scans more attentively until she spotted a hooded guy with a cape. She tried to remember the figure and how the mysterious warlock looked like.

The mysterious warlock may try to cover himself with a royal blue thick hooded cape but his golden hair is too long to be covered. Selene was able to recognize him by it as he is sitting on the corner-most portion of the tavern.

"The retrieval mission you gave me brought so much trouble which truly deserves a huge amount of reward." Selene declares to the warlock as she sits opposite of him.

"I am even amazed that you were able to make it out alive. So I assume you got the scroll?"

"Yes, I do! and before I hand it over, Where is the huge reward that you promised?"

The mysterious warlock handed over a grey briefcase to Selene who is very eager to see how much will it be worth from retrieving such a mysterious scroll as well.

Selene received the grey briefcase and checked for what it contains. Satisfaction beams all over her expression knowing that all the struggle she went through with Georgie and Freddie is totally worth it.

"That will cover your personal expenses for many years. That is worth 7 digits in dollar currency!" reassured by the mysterious Warlock.

"Where the hell you got such an unbelievable amount? If you do not mind me asking?"

"Then will you tell me how were you able to survive in retrieving this scroll against such a powerful being?"

Selene had no interest in sharing her wicked ways of doing her missions.

"Touche! then it was a pleasure doing business with you. I hope there will be next time!" When Selene was about to stand, the mysterious warlock interrupts her almost departure.

"I think you are forgetting something !" the mysterious warlock reminds Selene.

"Oh ya! Right. I am so sorry! The reward got me all too excited. So silly of me!" trying to brush her forgetfulness into a silly jester laugh.

Selene hands over the scroll but curiously observes the mysterious warlock check the scroll for its authenticity if it is truly what he is looking for.

"What is in that scroll that made you spend so much just to retrieve it back? The former henchman was carefully guarding it as well."

"This scroll contains something important that can decipher an important relic. That is why, it is kept and needed to be preserved due to its higher value than any treasures in the world." the mysterious warlock informs Selene vaguely.

While Selene was trying to figure out what kind of relic it may be, the mysterious warlock left her on her own while she was immersed in her own thoughts of what kind of relic that will be more important than any treasures in the world.

When she was about to express another curiosity of hers, she realized that the warlock left her on her own. She tried to look around if the warlock is still around the premises but the mysterious warlock completely left the vicinity of the tavern.

Selene tried to plan her next destination and contemplated if the Rogue brothers were able to escape or was caught by the Alpha Prince, who is also her mate. She wanted to convince herself that Georgie and Freddie were able to escape successfully but there was also a chance that they were captured by her mate, the Alpha Prince.

Thus, Selene decided to move and start her departure from the tavern. She planned to visit the Rogue brothers' apartment while she walked outside the tavern.

"Fluffy! We will be visiting some friends and I hope they are well."
