The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

[-Golden Moon Mansion-]

King Alcyd was unusually in the good mood after the departure of Booth and the meeting with the hunters.

Humming and doing his paper works for the Golden Moon Pack.

Completing all the necessary tasks before returning to the royal palace.

The staff members of the mansion and the other executive officers of the Alpha King noticed such good mood of their Alpha King.

No one dared to ask their Alpha King because they did not want to ruin his upbeat and good mood.

Except for his best friend, Beta Garrett.

Right after entering the main office and putting all the documents needed for the signing of their Alpha King, Beta Garrett could not contain his own thoughts.

"I guess you are happy that the hunter is no longer hanging around Selene." Beta Garrett pointed out.

"What do you mean?" King Alcyd feigning ignorance.

As if he was perplexed by the accurate observation of his best friend.

"Alcyd, I have known you for so long … I can tell!" Beta Garrett insisted.

"Can't I just be happy or be in a good mood? Since Selene has agreed to return with me in the royal palace." 

"That is one thing but the main reason … to your better aura today, is because the hunter has finally been removed from Selene's sight." Beta Garret won't give in to his best friend's reasoning.

The Alpha King looked at his best friend with a smile on his face.

"Fine! Can't I at least … feel good about it?" King Alcyd finally admitted the reason for his good mood.

"I thought so! You have been drinking yourself to death just because you cannot stand another man being close to Selene. Just tone down your good mood because others are still grieving for Lady Sonja's death." 

Immediately at the reminder of the death of Lady Sonja, the smile and good mood of King Alcyd disappeared.

Suddenly, the Alpha King started to cuss at his best friend.

"Aiish!!"

"Why do you have to ruin my mood?" King Alcyd complained at the valid point of his best friend.

Beta Garrett chuckled at his best friend.

"By the way, Selene went to town and met with the townsfolk. She had to reassure the members of the Golden Moon Pack and the residents that everything will be okay. Since, there are a lot of questions regarding her disappearance and return. Clearing things out with everyone … before leaving again …" Beta Garrett was not able to finish his words when King Alcyd stood from his chair.

"After all … Selene is still the Luna of the Golden Moon Pack. We are so lucky to have her as the Luna of this wolf pack. And as my mate. Why do I have to be so stupid in making poor decisions in life?" King Alcyd expressed his regret from his mistakes.

"The important thing is … we learn from our mistakes and failures! And try to be a better version of ourselves after it." Beta Garrett continued to comfort his best friend.

Hearing his best friend comfort him gave him hope for the days ahead.

"Let's finish this up! We have few days until our return to the royal palace. I already made the arrangements for Selene's stay in the royal palace." King Alcyd told his best friend.

"Regarding with Selene's stay … ummm …" Beta Garrett hesitated if it was the right time to inform the Alpha King about the arrangements made by Selene.

"What?!?!" King Alcyd wondered at the silence and momentary pause of his best friend.

"Selene already made arrangements. She already requested Chloe to convince your older brother to have her as guest in their manor."

The Alpha King burst into anger.

"HELL NO!!! She will be staying in the royal palace …" 

"AND WHAT? Cause a scene and trouble with your wife?" Selene interjected.

Making the two men surprised.

"Selene! I thought you will still be in …" Beta Garrett made way for Selene.

"We finished early. The arrangement is final. You cannot do anything about it now. I only agreed to return to the royal palace is for official matters. Not to disturb or cause any trouble with your wife." Selene clarified to the Alpha King about her intentions and plans.

"I thought …" King Alcyd sounded disappointed.

"I think everyone will agree. My presence will definitely cause chaos if I share the same space with you and your wife in the royal palace."

Selene continued explaining, "Remember, we have an arrangement. In order for me not to reject you and maintain our mate bond intact. So, your cooperation is needed. There are better things to be done in our return rather than your measly feelings."

For Selene to be brutally honest with King Alcyd was something unexpected by the Alpha King and his Beta.

Rendering him silent and disappointed.

Feeling upset once more.

After taking the necessary papers she needed for the last errand in the mansion, Selene was gently grabbed to the side after stepping outside the main office.

"Selene …" Beta Garrett requested for Selene's attention.

"Yes, Garrett?" Selene replied.

"Can I request something from you?" 

"Sure!"

"Will you be a little bit more considerate or gentle with your approach with Alcyd? I know you have the right to be angry and resentful to him. But he is trying his best you know … So, just give him a little slack from time to time. Losing Lady Sonja is quite a hit to take. Having you constantly reminding him of his mistakes and sins … will not make things better." 

Beta Garrett's last plea to Selene, "I am not saying ... forgive him now. But at least be gentler in your approach, less hurtful. Because he knows it already and admits to his own shortcomings. There is no need to crush him further."

At that point, Selene realized she has been the opposite of graceful.

In terms of dealing with Alcyd.

"Thank you for the reminder. And yes … I will do my best to heed your advice." Selene went her own way.

Before their intended return, Selene contemplated for the days to come.

How will she go on for these coming days?

Will everything be alright despite the complications of their current relationship?

Questions after another question invading Selene's mind.

Hoping for better days to come.
