Blaise's POV
It was quite a way to the castle. That's because the path was meant to look misleading. I drove up the path. It would take about 50 minutes to get there even though the castle looked close. "so where are we going?" Crystal asked. "our new home. There we have nothing to worry about." I said. I drove with one hand. I took Crystal's hand in mine. "I-I'm scared." she choked out. "it's alright." I reassured her.
"thanks Blaise." she said. "your welcome. I'm sorry for everything I've done to hurt you" I said. "it's okay, it's just who you are." she said. We had now been travelling for half an hour so we were nearly there. "only 20 minutes to go and then this car won't drive anywhere for a while." I said out loud. It was a quiet silence but it was nice. Crystal fell asleep. Eventually we arrived. It's been so long since I've lived here. I parked outside the main doors. Finally, we are here.
I got out of the car and headed to Crystal's side. I opened her door and carried her out. I walked though the door as it was open for me. "show me to a room." I said to one of the guards. "yes Alpha." he replied. "follow me." he instructed.

After a while of picking and choosing rooms I found two rooms. I placed Crystal under the covers of the bed. I walked out and closed the door behind me. "both of you stand outside her door so no one goes in." I ordered. They just nodes thier heads. I headed to my newly found room.
Crystal's POV
I woke up to the curtains being pulled. "owww, so bright." I complained. I wasn't sure who was in the room. I sat up and saw my luggage in the corner. Today was a new day. "good afternoon Luna." a woman greeted. "Crystal is just fine." I replied, yawning and stretching my arms. "wait afternoon?" I asked shocked. "how long have I been sleeping for?" I asked again. "oh dear, you've been sleeping for a while. It's now 1 o'clock in the afternoon." she replied. "oh well, so does that mean Blaise is awake then?" I asked. "yes he is, he's waiting for you in his study." the woman replied. "make sure to call him Alpha Steele." the woman said again. "okay thanks." I said. "also your reqiued to wear this outfit today." she said. "Oh okay, thanks I guess." I saud, another yawn following. "I'll wait outside for you do you can get ready, then I'll escort you to Alpha Steele."
"okay thanks." I said. I was so tired. I had a good sleep though.
The woman left the room. I took the outfit that sat on the end of the bed. I walked into the massive bathroom. The theme in this castle was interesting. Most castles I had seen in pictures were gold, white and purple. This was red, black and white and the occasional purple and gold. I wondered what Blaise's room looks like. I bet it was massive and beautiful. 'Just like him' my wolf suddenly said. Ugh why now. I got changed into the outfit. It didn't look right on me. "I look like a mess right now!" I shouted at the mirror. Suddenly the woman was behind me fixing the ties that were on the outfit. Hmm strange choice of clothing. "there we are dear, all done." the woman said. "um thanks." I said. "all good, now let's hurry, Alpha Steele is waiting for you, and as you know he hates waiting." she said. She basically pushdd down out of my room. I didn't know where we were going.
I assumed she was taking me to where my mate was. I passed multiple rooms. The doors were open people were in those rooms making beds and all sorts. Cleaning up I guess. As I passed the rooms, I noticed it was the same theme. Red and black with white, I didn't notice any purple or gold. I suddenly stopped.
Balsies POV
I waited patiently for my mate. I didn't care how long she took as long I got see her. I stood in front of my desk. "Ahhhh, don't push me so hard." I heard. I looked to see my mate. She almost tripped. I caught her arm and pulled her close to me. "Be careful!" I growled. "are you okay?" I asked. "n-no." she answered. I moved out the way so she could sit on the chair. "you!" I shouted pointing at at Elizabeth. "be careful with my mate, she's not an object that needs to be pushed roughly. She's a person." I growled. "I-I'm sorry Alpha, I-it w-won't happen again." she said. "good, now leave us." I demanded.
I turned to look at Crystal. "I'm so sorry she treated you like that." I said. "it's okay, I guess it's my fault for walking up late." she said. "it's not your fault at all, I told you not to down yourself." I said. "I'm sorry." she sobbed. "stop apologising to me." I said. "okay." was all she said.
"so, what do you think about me giving you a tour?" I asked. "hmm sounds good." she replied. I took her hand began the tour. After the tour we ended up on one of the balconys. "wow so pretty." she said. "just like you." I commented. I could see her face turn bright red. "from here you can see the pack." I said.
Stephanie's POV
I was late afternoon according to the sun dial. It was so different without Blaise here. Still he lead this pack. The castle belonged to this pack anyways. Without him here it was great. I ran towards my cousin. "hey isn't it great!" i shouted to Shannon. "what's great Stephanie?" she asked. "Alpha Steele isn't here all the time." I said excited. "oh yeah that's the best thing. I bet he's torturing his mate." she said suddenly saddened.
"I hope not, if he is he doesn't deserve a mate." I said angrily. "hey Shannon, do you know where the Alpha is?" ugh it was Samantha. "no sorry, why are you asking?" Shannon asked. "because I need to talk with him, and the only way I can do that is by killing his mate." she said. I couldn't belive what she was saying. "if he found out that you were trying to kill his mate, he'd kill you first." Tyler said. "well he wouldn't find out, please I need your help." she pleeded. "no, he may not be a very nice man but he's still our Alpha." I said. "he's just had a tough time. He different from all of us." Shannon said. I wondered what he'd be doing right now.
