The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

[-In the royal court of King Viktor-]

Selene was surrounded with King Viktor's royal guards.

Despite this intense situation formed due to King Viktor's decisions, Selene remained calm and composed.

On their way to the royal court, King Viktor has discussed to her their role as monarch in the werewolf kingdom.

Slightly putting some impression to her that it is crucial for a royal family member to find an influential and strong mate who will be greatly helpful in their responsibility as important figures in the werewolf kingdom.

Not even a single moment nor instance where Selene exhibited any disrespectful or any reason for King Viktor to deem her unworthy.

Even King Viktor started to become frustrated in his attempts to discourage Selene but it seems to be unfruitful due to her firm expression and unwavering feelings towards Prince Alcyd.

When the Alpha King of all Alpha Werewolves finally sat on his throne, he gestured to his royal guards to bring Selene on the side of the steps where she will be heavily guarded by the royal guards of King Viktor.

By this time, Selene wondered for the sudden command of King Viktor.

"What is the meaning of this, your highness? I thought you will only show me around and offer me your hospitality." Selene pointed out to King Viktor.

Upon hearing Selene's words, King Viktor laughed loudly.

"You thought that I would be hospitable towards a lone wolf? Just because you became my son's mate does not entitle you for such privilege. Indeed … The likes of you are too naive to even grasp the situation that you are in." King Viktor finally removed his façade and revealed his true intentions towards Selene.

Even though Selene has been directly insulted and underestimated, she did not attempt to retaliate nor cause any violent response towards the father of his mate.

Though, it does not mean that her spirit wolf would allow such treatment towards Selene.

A struggle of control took place within Selene.

Due to her spirit wolf trying to takeover control.

'Let me have control, Selene! I cannot let this old geezer just insult us like that! We will show him what we are made of!' Selene's spirit wolf was triggered and angered due to King Viktor's insulting words.

'Stop it! Do not forget as well, he is our mate's father! The Alpha King of all Alpha Werewolves … Are you willing to risk our position and the relationship of our mate to his father?' Selene retorted her spirit wolf's impulse.

A sudden silence from Selene's spirit wolf after hearing Selene's explanation.

Consistent patience and composed expression were seen from Selene.

"For what real purpose I was brought here, your highness?" Selene requested for enlightenment from King Viktor.

Then King Viktor pondered on the real purpose for Selene being dragged to the royal court without her full awareness.

*** Brief Flashback ***

[-In the main office of King Viktor-]

One of the royal guards reported back to King Viktor regarding with Prince Alcyd's movements and was excused after informing King Viktor everything about the current movements of Prince Alcyd around the royal palace.

It did not sit well with King Viktor that his favorite son chose to remain mated with someone not affiliated to any influential wolf pack nor powerful ally of his.

"What do you want to do now, King Viktor?" Mia asked the Alpha King of all Alpha Werewolves.

"My son leaves me with no choice! He dares to continuously disappoint me … If he truly intends to defy my orders and release his younger siblings from the dungeon. Then I must take his mate and see if I can force him to follow." King Viktor's reply.

"But King Viktor … We all know that Prince Alcyd may not respond well through force and threats especially if it will involve his mate. I do not know if we would like his response to this." Beta Nolan worriedly informed King Viktor.

King Viktor only chuckled at his Beta.

"Didn't my threats work on you, Nolan? When it comes to his mate, I am sure he would bend perfectly to my will. I do not tolerate disobedience and insubordination. There will be no soul that will prevent me from my plans!" King Viktor shared to Beta Nolan his thoughts about his decision.

Mia looked at Beta Nolan as if she was looking down upon him.

Both glared at each other regarding the remarks of King Viktor.

Because Beta Nolan does not agree to involve Prince Alcyd's mate due to his concern for his former disciple.

"King Viktor, what should we do if your favorite son released his younger siblings?" Mia's query towards the Alpha King.

"That is why … we have to drag his mate in the royal court and force him to bend on my will. Thus, it will show him the volatility of the position of his platinum-haired mate. I will not tolerate his newfound defiance towards me. This is unacceptable!" King Viktor clenched his fist due to his agitation towards the bold and open defiance of Prince Alcyd.

"In other words, we will hold his mate as hostage. So, just in case he keeps defying your orders … What will be the next step then?" A valid query from Mia, the darkest witch.

A long pause before King Viktor gave his reply to Mia.

…

…

…

"Then he will leave me with no choice ... I will have to break his defiance through his mate. Something that he will never forget!" A looming threat that King Viktor would impose once Prince Alcyd kept his defiant attitude.

Beta Nolan became more nervous about King Viktor's plans.

*** End of Flashback ***

Back in the royal court,

While things get more intense, King Viktor waited patiently for his favorite son.

They expect him to arrive anytime soon since he would be aware this time regarding his mate.

"I think it will be a bad idea to provoke your son, your highness!" a piece of honest advice from Selene.

She looked calm and genuine after giving her unsolicited advice.
