C10 Royal Lycan pack pt. 1

Clarissa POV

Following this same path after a whole year feels different for many reasons and I can’t help but observe the surroundings to double check for any danger. Cynthia had once told me that before she left the pack, an anonymous tip about some rogue movement was received and handled by the beta and gamma who were in charge at the time because the Alpha was on trip.

Its Cynthia’s birthday this weekend and the young huntress need to return home for her inauguration ceremony because her father threatened to send the pack warriors for her if she doesn’t return home to take over her duties.

Her father had given her six months to travel and find her mate before she takes over her position from him but somehow she’d managed to make him extend it to a year, yet she’s had no luck locating her mate.

It’s her birthday tomorrow which makes it a perfect opportunity for the pack to hold her ceremony, so here we are heading to the Royal pack and I can’t help but feel giddy on the inside for two very valid reasons.

One, I’m finally going to the Royal pack even though I don’t know what to expect and two, I have a very deep crush for their Alpha but then again, who wouldn’t. He's a living Greek god.

As we cross the pack border, I feel Emerald tense up and come forward to merge with me making one of my irises red while the other remains brown.

We feel them, the pack warriors and they’re on high alert because they sense a rogue and my aura and I grip the steering wheel tightly making my knuckles turn white.

Cynthia stiffens feeling my aura and lets out a growl commanding the warriors to stand down and I turn to give her a grateful nod while she just smiles reassuringly at me.

We hear one of the wolves howl excitedly and Cynthia responds with equal excitement and I instantly know its her younger brother James.

I pull up into a stop before a huge stone castle that looks like something right out of a medieval era or fantasy movie in all its glory.

I gape at the size, beauty, magnificence and dream worthy appearance of the pack house and can’t help but wonder how they’ve managed to maintain it so well over the years.

I’m snapped out of my trance when two Identical pups in pink and purple princess dresses come running and squealing towards my best friend who just crouches low and opens her arms wide as the twin pups jump into her waiting arms.

“Aunty Cynthia you’re finally home” the one in a pink dress squeals excitedly.

“ I missed you so much, no I missed you the most Aunty Cynty” the one in a purple dress says sheepishly while eyeing her gaping twin proudly causing her to pout.

Before Cynthia can get a word in the conversation, my phone rings and I curse lowly looking at the caller while Cynthia raises an eyebrow at me silently asking who the caller is and I just wave the phone before her eyes and she just huffs in annoyance.

“Rinny I swear to the creator if this is not important I’m putting you in a hospital for at least a month” I snap at my PA who audibly gulps.

My best friend laughs and I pin her a glare that makes her shut up while the twins giggle making me smile at them softly.

“Boss I’m sorry but you said to call you if something unexpected happens and I’m afraid a raging Vampire elder in front of humans is very suitable for that category” he says anxiously and I hear shouting in the background instantly recognizing it.

“F**k, I’m on my way back right now and tell those a*****s they’re going to have a very memorable weekend” I instruct him angrily before ending the call.

I look to my best friend and she smiles at me in understanding making me feel more guilty for breaking my promise to spend the weekend with her and help her prepare for her ceremony.

“I’ll come back tonight latest babes, I promise” I say to her apologetically and kiss her lips making her grin and wave me off.

“When you finish decorating his pale skin please tell him I’m coming for interest” She says sarcastically and I laugh hopping back into the car. After two omegas grab our luggage from the trunk.

“Please tell your patrol to expect me tonight and I’ll be on foot or in wolf form” I remind her and she smiles reassuringly.
