The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

[In the mansion of the Alpha Prince, Alcyd]

After days since Selene arrived at the mansion, she has done nothing but to try in settling down and observed first.

Selene's current room has been designed with rose pink plain customized wallpaper which makes it special especially since every part of her room screams girly.

Laying in her soft bed while her arms are stretched out. She never had a choice to design the room because it was Prince Alcyd's orders and instructions on how the room was going to be for Selene.

The sun has started to appear which signals the arrival of full daylight. Selene starts to wake herself up and stares at the ceiling of her room. Her eyes try to scan her room before she delved deep into her thoughts in recollecting how her days passed so far since her arrival.

Her recollection went by;

{Day 1} ...

Selene was introduced to every staff as Sonja's niece and will be part of the staff as the assistant chef in the kitchen. Every staff member was inquisitive towards Selene. The Chief of staff, Sonja, never mentioned that she had a niece. She was very strict towards other staff so they had no time to really ask her.

Sonja was very discreet about her personal life. This introduction gave such an intriguing revelation for other staff members.

Then, Sonja showed Selene around the huge mansion except for the off-limits, the Dungeon. It was explained to Selene that there are rules to be followed in the mansion and Selene is not exempted from it.

From a strict and intimidating presence around the other staff members, Sonja shows a respectful and courteous approach towards Selene since she knows exactly who is Selene towards their Alpha Prince.

The first day went by, through Mansion tour and introduction to the entire staff members. It was an overwhelming day for Selene for she had to accept her new reality and adjust to her new identity being in the territory of Golden Moon pack.

{Day2} ...

Selene observed how busy the Executive Officers of the Alpha Prince gets. She was able to observe as she moves around the mansion freely that there are certain roles that each Executive Officers have to play.

like ...

** Garrett, he serves as Beta of the pack and serves as the right hand of Prince Alcyd.

** Caleb, the Commander of the warriors in the pack, training and leading the warriors is his main responsibility. He is also responsible for supervising the guards in the mansion.

** Theodulf or Theo, the Delta of the pack, he is third in command in the pack. Mainly, he is tasked to check the weapons and monitor the armory in the mansion since his expertise deals with handling machines and weapons.

** Oliver, the Gamma of the pack, he is fourth in command in the pack. Usually, when the other Executive Officers are not around, he is left in charge. Though, he is always in the Library of the mansion reading lots of books and looking maps of sorts that Selene could tell by the lines and figures of the material.

** Jackson, who leads the patrol team to the borders of their territory and checks every assigned unit before they set off for patrol in teams. He collaborates with Caleb in supervising the patrol team since Caleb is more aware of who to put together and assign as a unit.

** Athena, the Beta's mate, she is considered as the strongest female warrior in the Golden Moon Pack. She supervises the guards in the mansion when Caleb is busy training the warriors. Most of her task involves substitution or taking in charge when others are busy to do their main task. So basically, she is the stand-in or deputy of every important task in the mansion. She has the most diverse role among the Executive Officers. Her expertise though is medicine and first aid. She is in the clinic when she has free time

** Jane, Jackson's mate, she is also always in the library assisting Oliver in research and some academic stuff. She is the same age as Oliver. She is the least person that Selene has observed.

{Day 3} ...

Selene is getting more used to roaming around the mansion and helping along in the kitchen. All members of the Executive Officers stay in the mansion. There is a portion of the mansion where every staff and Executive Officers stay.

Sonja showed Selene around the town during the day. Showing her around and introduced her to some townsfolk who are also members of the Golden Moon Pack.

Humans and werewolves have been cohabitating peacefully with other supernatural beings in the territory of the Golden Moon Pack.

Selene assisted in buying stuff and necessities for the mansion. The entire town was filled with seriousness with their own job and was peaceful. It was safe to say that the town was boring for her own taste. Traveling around, city to city, during her mercenary missions allowed Selene to compare different vibes of every place.

Though, the orphanage near the hospital left a lasting impression on Selene since she is fond of children. She thought of visiting the orphanage and spending longer once she gets a vacant time for her to do so.

When Selene returned with Sonja back to the mansion, they both immediately prepared the dinner.

During the meal, the Executive Officers eat with the Alpha Prince while other staff members eat after they eat. The Alpha Prince wanted Selene to join but he had to keep pretending and be consistent with their pretense.

Despite his desire to keep Selene around him, he knows that this is the best way to protect Selene from unnecessary threats and harm since she is his mate.

The dining area is also huge and elegant. It screams regal and royalty. The design and ambiance of the dining area exhibit grandeur elegance with its crystal chandelier hanging on the high ceiling.

Every furniture and the long dining table, that can cater to a lot of people, are expensive-looking and high quality.

Both the Alpha Prince and Selene were trying their best to play their own respective roles in this charade of disguise that they both need to keep up.

All the Executive Officers, including Sonja, are being entertained deep inside on seeing their Alpha Prince act awkwardly towards Selene. All of them tittered at the situation that their Alpha Prince is entangled with.

{Day 4} ... at Present

Selene gave out a deep breath and sighed on the new emotions she is feeling towards the Alpha Prince. It frustrates her on how much it affects her.

The bond of having a mate is something difficult to shy away from. No matter how much she tries to avoid the spark and the pull of the bond seems to be inescapable. She believes it to be an artificial or unnatural way of falling for someone.

This is the exact reason why Selene does not want to find her mate or be with him. Aside from being a distraction, she believes that having mate is a form of enslaving a werewolf under a certain state which is unjust and torture.

She stood and prepared for a new day.

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

[Meanwhile, in the main office of the Alpha Prince]

Garrett is surprised that Prince Alcyd is awake early and looking out of his mind. Talking to himself as if he is rehearsing something.

"If you want to approach the future Luna then I think you need to head to the garden. I saw her on her way to the garden." Garrett tries to advise Prince Alcyd.

Prince Alcyd tries to get back to his paper works and pretends to occupy himself with reading while Garrett approaches. Then, Garrett tried to flip the paper upside down which Prince Alcyd pretending to read.

"One thing for sure you have not learned to read upside down and you will not achieve anything holding your paper upside down." Garrett chuckled

"What should I do Garrett? I do not know how to start a conversation with my mate without making her mad or pushing any of her buttons."

Then, Kratos, the spirit wolf of Prince Alcyd suddenly boast about his better appeal.

'Let me take over and you will see how our mate will like us. I am way better than you in handling ladies, and that is a fact!'

Prince Alcyd pushes Kratos deep down his mind to prevent it from distracting and frustrating him more.

"If I were you, go to the garden now and observe her first and wait for her to acknowledge your presence. Do not start with an opinion about her nor tell her things which she should not do because definitely you will not like how she responds at you."

"How should I start then?" Prince Alcyd frustration becomes more apparent.

"After observing her and when she acknowledges your presence, start asking how she feels. Show your concern by asking if she is settling in properly in the mansion. Then, you inform her about your plans to travel to the Royal Palace and how long you will be gone. Eventually, she will open up and start asking you things. By that, you answer all her concerns and end your conversation by hoping she would look after herself and you will bring something for her once you get back."

Prince Alcyd contemplates on the advice of his best friend.

Finally, he took the courage to stand and made his way to his mate.

The moment Prince Alcyd left the main office, Garrett immediately mind-linked his mate and to inform the other Executive Officers that their ruthless Alpha Prince is on his way to the garden in an attempt to interact with Selene, the Alpha Prince's mate, after few excruciating days of longing to spend time with Selene.

Now, their Alpha has finally had the guts to approach Selene in a more subtle approach.

Every Executive Officer excitedly made their way to the hall near the garden to discreetly witness a once in a lifetime moment, their Alpha being subtle and some hoping to see their Alpha Prince embarrass himself.

Lady Sonja saw the Alpha Prince intending to make his way to the garden which she immediately understood what Prince Alcyd intends to do. She instructed all other staff members to go to town and buy plenty of vegetables and a variety of fruits.

"All of us, Lady Sonja?" one staff confusedly asked.

"Should I repeat myself? Hurry! What you all waiting for?" Sonja stresses out her authority.

Everyone went out hastily.

What the other staff members do not know, there was something unusual about to take place in the garden.

Every Executive Officer, including Lady Sonja, is standing discreetly behind the windows in view of their Alpha Prince and Selene in the garden.

Prince Alcyd internally recites to himself,

'Observe first, Observe first. Wait for her to acknowledge your presence'

'Do not mess up!'
