The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

[-In the Mansion of Jade Pack-]

The Alpha of the Jade Pack arranged the arrival of his eldest sister.

All the staff members of the mansion stood on stand-by for her expected arrival.

Security around the borders of the Jade Pack was heightened due to their current severing ties with the royal family and the throne.

Tension was incredibly high against the forces of the Alpha King.

Since their declaration, the entire werewolf population feared another possibility of war between werewolves.

If before the werewolf war was between the royal army and their allies versus the rogue werewolves. But this time around, it may be between the wolf packs.

After the prime minister issued a non-concrete response towards the pressuring move they made during the session in the parliament and in the royal court.

Such decision was made to corner the royal family and put them in a crucial decision-making.

At the arrival of Laura, Alpha Alister welcomed his eldest sister.

Looking upset and serious.

"Welcome, Laura! How was your travel?" Alpha Alister greeted his eldest sister with enthusiasm.

But his eldest sister was not in the mood for pleasantries.

"Request for the elders to proceed in your main office. There are things we need to finalize regarding the current issue with the royal family. I want you to step up as the Alpha of the Jade Pack." A serious tone on Laura.

Amber who just right behind Laura was giving their younger brother a signal that Laura was currently in a bad mood.

Reading the situation, Alpha Alister immediately acted upon the instruction of his eldest sister.

Proceeding to the main office of the Alpha.

Taking a seat next to the chair of the supposed seat of the Alpha, Laura was silent and seemed to be very distracted with something.

"What are you thinking, sister?" Amber curiously asked Laura.

Since it's only two of them in the main office.

Waiting for others to arrive for an emergency meeting.

Laura felt that it was safe to share her own thoughts with her younger sister.

"About how foolish I have been …" Laura directly told her younger sister.

"We both know that you are far from foolish, Laura! You are the smartest and the strongest woman I know. I refuse to agree with the warriors of the Golden Moon Pack stating Selene as the strongest and the smartest woman ever. Why would you think such a thing?" Amber made an attempt to comfort her eldest sister.

…

Laura took a pause before responding to her younger sister's words.

"Because I thought I would be truly loved by the Alpha King. That I would replace his dead mate in his cold heart. I really thought I hit the jackpot! Thinking … I would have the fairytale. The Prince Charming, the wealth, the power … everything!" 

She continued, "Who am I joking? I will never win against the dead! Now … I am pregnant … and based on the actions of the Alpha King, he doesn't want to pursue the marriage for a certain reason which he doesn't want to disclose."

Amber wondered, "He was completely head over heels with you before. Just recently, things changed completely. What happened?"

"I also don't know. He won't tell me as well. But I am sure something related to his mate. Because even the mate of his eldest brother has been acting weird lately. Actually, the entire royal family is acting weird. Hiding something from everyone." Laura replied.

She continued,

"My instinct tells me that it is related with his mate."

Laura paused for a while.

And Amber took this chance for her to speak out her mind.

"You surprised me when you really wanted to commit with the Alpha King. It is very unlike you to fall for someone who is mated to somebody else." Amber was direct with her older sister.

No hesitations.

No sugar coating.

"I know! But once you fall for someone, you would understand what I went through. Setting aside all your plans and having to hope for something different from the initial plans you had."

Laura kept going with her worries.

"And now … having this child … I refuse to lose the future I want for my child. Even they would hate me for it. I would take all lengths to achieve what I need to do. TO HAVE THE LIFE I WANT."

Moments after …

Alpha Alister arrived with the elders of the Jade Pack in tow.

The elders were surprised with the current developments and decision of the Alpha.

Seeing Laura present in the main office.

They feared that the sudden decision of their Alpha may have been influenced by his eldest sister.

Ever since the take down of their former Alpha, the elders feared the influence of Laura towards their Alpha and her own schemes.

No one could be compared to her scheming and she was considered to be a rival to Prince Alarick's skills and knowledge in politics.

"I thought this is an emergency meeting with the Alpha only." Tessio, one of the elders, expressed his concerns.

The other elders cowered in fear at the sight of Laura.

Her aura was filled with spite and evident tension.

"Tessio … I think you need to be careful with your words." The other elders tried to warn their fellow elder.

"Oh, Sir Tessio … listen to the other elders! Even elders can be easily replaced just like our resident witch. Do not question our presence because amber and I are the official advisers of the Alpha." Laura displayed an authoritative aura.

"Yes … as advisers … not the devils that will manipulate the Alpha to engage such impulsive decisions."

Immediately, the two younger siblings of Laura were surprised at the words of their elder.

Laura scoffed at the boldness of Tessio.

"Don't you know that the royal family is at the verge of tolerating the Alpha King's decision of backing out from his initial proposal? From what I have heard from our allied ministers close to the prime minister. There is a possibility of re-opening the private quarters for a concubine of the Alpha King. In other words, there is a decision of treating me as a concubine of the Alpha King."

"Such insult will not happen to me! If Persephone and her wolf pack allowed such a thing to her. Then they are wrong if I would let that happen to me."

The elders were shocked at the revelation of Laura.

"But …" Tessio was not able to finish his reasoning because Laura interjected his reasoning.

"Pressuring them and cornering them to a situation will allow us to achieve the things we intend to have."

"At the risk of stability of the kingdom and lives of our own people!" Tessio insisted his opposition in the sudden decision of their Alpha.

"It is not a risk if it is something that I know for sure they would not allow to get worsen." Laura showed her confidence in her plans.

Upon taking their seats, Tessio remained unsettled and bothered with the declaration of Alpha Alister and Laura.

To sever ties with the Alpha King.

"But are you not afraid that this will lead to war? They are far stronger and more powerful than our warriors."

Instantly, Laura retorted.

"Do not underestimate our wolf pack. We have the connections that they do not have and we are the richest wolf pack. Without our contributions and an embargo would cripple the entire kingdom. What do you think will happen if they lose our support and we block all operations on the distribution of the resources needed by the other wolf packs?"

Amber and Alpha Alister smiled at the elders.

Being proud for their eldest sister.

Only Laura had the audacity to challenge the royal family.

Knowing the leverage she could have against the royal family.

"We would not sever our ties with the Alpha King if we were not confident with the outcome." Alpha Alister supported his eldest sister.

The elders remained quiet.

Including Tessio.

After hearing their Alpha there was no sense in going against with his decision.

They have decided to concede.

…

Discussing on how they will approach their current situation.

…

When the meeting ended, Laura excused herself and left her younger brother with the elders.

Amber escorted Laura back to her room.

And was surprised to see their new resident witch.

"Everything is ready! Mia the -Grand Dark Witch- has been located and with your command … we can open the line of communication with her."

"Perfect!" Laura was satisfied by the report of the resident witch.

Her younger sister was astonished upon hearing the words from the new resident witch.
