The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

[-In the Crimson Pack-]

While Lucas went off to the royal palace, Selene tried to contact Ben.

Calling him through phone.

Ben informed Selene about the sudden changes on Melody's behavior and mood swings.

*** Through Phone Patch ***

"Melody is not shifting nor having a heat cycle. She is not a werewolf! And she is not marked by Lucas. Have you told President Tony about her condition?" Selene's response to Ben's concerns about Melody.

"I thought …" Ben was standing by the window while watching over a sleeping Melody.

"Your assumption is wrong. But it might have to do with her being a siren. Something within her might be starting to develop like the shifting of the werewolves." Selene told Ben.

She continued in her explanation.

"While we were in the Golden Moon Pack, we made our own research during our stay there. All about sirens. And Melody has not yet developed maturely as a siren. Maybe she is going through her evolution."

"WHAT?!" 

"Keep her sedated. If she starts to feel extremely hot and dry, do not quench her thirst immediately. She must be weakened completely before we go through the process of her evolution. Because it will involve the safety of those around her."

"Why? Should I be worried?"

"YES! Because I found out personally that Sirens become predators during their process of … transformation."

"TRANSFORMATION?"

"Transforming into her amphibious form is part of her evolution. Since she is a hybrid, half-human and half-siren … her transformation has been delayed a lot. So … I bet she will go through her evolution all at once. Completing into her final mature state."

Ben was shocked at the revelation of Selene.

"BUT … this is …"

"YES, EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE THINKING RIGHT NOW!"

"Other hunters will treat her as a threat!" 

"THAT IS WHY YOU KEEP HER INSIDE! AWAY FROM ANY EYES!"

"I understand! But I can't do this alone! I will need help!" Ben expressed his worry to Selene.

"Don't worry! Once my older brother arrives, we will immediately reinforce you and assist you in helping Melody's condition."

"THAT'S REALLY REASSURING!"

"Of course, Melody is like a sister to me. So it's normal for me to do my best in keeping her safe. And I sent my wolf guardian through Melody's shadow. In case there will be any complication and threat, Fluffy will be there to help you." 

"I promise to do my best here. Please come soon! I don't know if how long I can keep this down."

"Ben … you are a clever hunter and I know you can do this. Think of it as your greatest service to President Tony and his only daughter. I know how grateful you are to them and this is your chance to prove them." 

Selene knew how committed Ben can be for his service to President Tony and his only daughter.

And Selene utilized Ben's genuine deep devotion.

In order for him to do his best.

*** End of Phone Patch ***

…

After two days since Lucas left …

Selene tried to train herself and assist the warriors of the Crimson Pack.

At the same time prepare for their travel to help Melody.

Beta Inyagi was on the ground after getting knocked over by Selene.

Praises from her father who was watching them spar.

"You are truly my daughter! Only a fool will try to go against you in a hand to hand combat." Alpha Berrick could not help himself but feel proud for his daughter.

"Thank you father! I was a mercenary for quite some time. Learning to fight in an early age helped me develop some moves of my own. And of course I was harnessed further at the Golden Moon Pack." Selene elaborated how she gained such prowess in combat.

Alpha Berrick forced a smile at the mention of the Golden Moon Pack.

Pretending he was not affected by it.

Though, in reality he was not interested nor pleased to hear the wolf pack affiliated to Viktor.

Due to the arrival of Lucas, Selene excused herself and wanted to talk with Lucas.

Since, Alpha Berrick was suspicious about the trip of Lucas to the royal palace.

He followed Selene and planned to join the discussion.

…

[-Outside the packhouse-]

"Lucas!" Selene greeted her older brother.

"What a trip it was! Things were crazy in the royal palace. If it weren't for your recommendation, the Alpha King would have made a drastic decision of apprehending all the opposition." Lucas immediately reported to Selene.

"Great thing you were there! We need to discuss about Magdeline's mission and how Alcyd …" Selene wanted to ask further about her mate but their father appeared right behind her.

"And what about your mate? That good-for-nothing!" Alpha Berrick's serious tone spooked Selene.

Instantly she acted cool and casual with her response.

"How Alcyd's allies and siblings helping him? Especially if things are getting worse and intense there." Selene's quick thinking.

Alpha Berrick carefully looked at his son and daughter.

"Get inside already! We will be having our early dinner with Alpha Maximo and Luna Zavy." Alpha Berrick instructed the two.

While he secretly tried to eavesdrop on the mind-link conversation of Lucas and Selene. If ever they were having one.

Instead of conversing audibly where their father would be hearing them, Selene tried to mind-link with Lucas.

'Luke! How is he? Is Alcyd alright?'

'Don't worry! He is in good shape and things are getting under control with Magdeline's presence. But he terribly misses you. I had to lie about why you had to stay longer in Crimson Pack so he won't cause any trouble with our father.' Lucas response to Selene's query.

'Thanks Luke! But we have to talk about Melody after dinner.'

'Why? Is something wrong with her?' 

Lucas grabbed Selene's hand. 

Stopping her from her tracks.

Then Alpha Berrick pretended to discuss with his Beta so he could keep spying on his son and daughter.

'She is currently okay as of now but we need to see her and help her go through something important. But the problem is … how are we going to reason out with our strict father?'

'You are right! That is our main challenge. Getting his permission!'

Both, Selene and Lucas looked at their father.

Unknowingly, Alpha Berrick was already aware of their dilemma.

As they were looking at their father, Alpha Berrick thought to himself.

'If you two are planning to go behind my back with things I am not pleased with … then I will take my chances in doing things that you may not approve of as well.' 

Faking his obliviousness from the discreet mind-link conversation of Lucas and Selene.
