END OF FLASHBACK.
"Kyle". Alpha Max said snapping him out of reverie.
Kyle growled, no one should disrespect him. He could not deny the fact that he misses her and the closest he could get to her is through his memories of her.
"I am sorry, Alpha". Alpha Max bowed as a sign of respect. Kyle just noticed that Luna Claire left and turned to Alpha Max who seemed to understand his eyes language. "She left to take care of some things". He answered. Kyle only nodded since they were other pressing matters.
Kyle was about to leave when Alpha Max stopped him. "What about the warriors?".
"The Draeries promised to train the warriors as well as the pack members but each pack is given three elders and five Draeries. Father would have called all the neighbouring packs to start merging with their head packs". Kyle explained and left to his room.
Kyle walked to his room and saw Marianne on his bed with only a red lingerie on. "Have some decency, woman". He said walking to his bathroom but before he closed the door, he turned to Marianne and allowed his wolf who was disgusted by her presence to take over. "Don't come here again. Get this into your head, you are not my mate!".
The water was so cool but yet he couldn't savor the moment as he rested inside his Jacuzzi. She has always been on his mind. He remembered how her black wavy hair was always smooth and worn into a ponytail and her hazel eyes bright. He loved the way she focuses on things she was ready to learn.
Kyle sighed as he got out and wrapped his towel around his waist. He just knew how empty his room is without his mate. He was given the best room in the pack house since he didn't want to be far away in case of danger. He looked at his closet and saw an empty side. He immediately dressed so that he wouldn't dwell much on his thoughts. He looked round his room and realized it was painted grey just like his room in every of the ten Head Alphas pack house. He smiled sadly as his wolf, Arthur whispered. "We don't even know her favorite colour". Kyle nodded unable to talk as tears began to fall. As a royal, he was taught to never show his emotions but this time around, he couldn't. She was his life, his joy and his everything, how can he get her back now that she was so far away.
The next day was the time for them to go to the Academy. Kyle was surprised to see his father sitting with Alpha Max in his office. "Dad, what are you doing here?". He questioned.
His dad stood up with his face blank, he knew his face mirrored that of his father because that was how they were taught to behave. Kyle can count the number of times his father smiled to him and his mother, he couldn't tell why considering she was his mate.
"I am here to take you to the Academy". Not that he cares but sometimes his father has his own tricks up his sleeve. Kyle didn't question his father and reluctantly entered the black limo waiting for them.
The academy is castle like joined building which cannot be accessed easily except for some reasons. The castle was said to be built by the three of the most powerful witches. It can also be seen and conjured out by the chosen. Even though Kyle has no idea who was the new chosen one. He knew according to tales; he/she has to convince the elders why they had to make it seen to those coming. The academy was built to train supernatural. Vampires and werewolves are trained together while witches and elementals together. The two sides do not see each other regularly except lunch and when one side needs help because witches and elementals need to get a hold of their powers because one wrong spell can cause chaos.
Kyle was thankful for the silence because he knew how annoying his father is especially if he has been away for too long. Some think it is a way of caring but to him, he knows his father never cared. The old man just wants his heir alive but that does not stop him from choosing another.
"Wow". His attention was drawn to the magnificent building in front of him when Marianne gasped. The sun gave a glow to the castle and the silver cross placed at the rooftop was sparkling.
"We are here". His Father said excitingly. He was shocked when his father who was supposed to leave stayed.
Kyle was about to voice out his thoughts when a woman appeared behind them. "Damien darling". She said sweetly. Too close as he was clenching his fist.
"Who are you?". Kyle asked rudely, not caring about his father.
"Oh me?!". She asked and was adjusting his father's shirt when she turned and gave Kyle a wink. "Kimberly, Damien ex-girlfriend or should I say ex mate?".
~ SIX~
Kyle couldn't keep his mouth closed and yet his father made no move to take the slut away from his arms. She was dressed in a tight fitted black gown that barely covered her buttocks with her breast puffed out. When Kyle noticed that Marianne was resting her head on his shoulders, he realized that he was no different. He hurt Elizabeth and his worst nightmares has begun. He had promised himself never to be like his father but he broke that promise.
He gently pushed Marianne off him and cleared his throat. "My name is Kyle Frost". He said emphasizing on his surname as he brought his hands forward waiting for a handshake. Kyle has pushed her buttons, he knew it.
"Damien, I didn't know you had a son?". She said as if she was unaware but Kyle knew she was playing a game. He didn't know this woman's deal with his father and does not wish to know.
Kyle felt nauseous all of a sudden. This is not his feelings, he thought and realized minutes later, it was that of his mother. She knew.
Kyle couldn't keep his anger in when he said with command. "Get your hands off him, now!". He was beyond angry. Now he could get why his father was so excited to be here.
Kimberly glared at him as she had no choice but to obey his authority as Alpha. "See? Your mate fears you". Kim said while cat walking to the building.
She didn't take the fifth step when Kyle called out. "She is not". And added, "My mate is perfect and I am satisfied with her". Kyle said while glaring at his father.
Kimberly disappeared into the building as Kyle asked the obvious question. "Who is she?".
"Why did you do that and I don't have to answer to you". His father said angrily while opening the door of the car.
"Oh no! You are not leaving". He said closing the door while leaning on it. He just took noticed of Marianne and sent her inside.
"I won't ask again. Who is she?". Kyle was livid. Damien knows how powerful his son is. The elders could not give a logical explanation why his son's wolf was extremely powerful than any wolf.
Kyle smirked when he sensed the fear coming from his father. He was beaten and punished by his father for any little thing while his mother was sometimes beaten if she gets in the way. However, since last year when Kyle was permanently registered as the next heir and got to know how powerful his wolf was, he never allowed his dad get away with his abuse especially on his mother.
He had thought they had patched things up before he left but obviously he was wrong.
"She is my ex mate". Damien answered. Kyle kept quiet for his father to continue.
"She rejected me and screwed my best friend who is Alpha Keylar Connor".
Kyle raised his eyebrows. "So you are saying you are friends with the second ranked head Alpha?".
"We were. Keylar has everything, the only reason why we could beat him was because we are royals which means more money and power".
"So mom is your second chance mate?". Kyle asked. He wanted to know the reason why his father behaves the way he does.
Damien shook his head. "Your mother is not. I never did find my second chance mate so I chose your mother".
"How did you meet her?". He questioned further.
"Your mother was in Kimberly circus when I met her. She was like their slave, always receiving instructions from them. At first, I thought I loved her after she rejected me because she was always there for me but I later knew it was pity but it was too late to turn back. Charlotte was pregnant".
"So you were forced to stay with her, right? You should have left her". He was shouting with tears straining down his face.
"I am sorry. The council knew it was a boy so they forced me to mark her". Alpha Damien shouted. He wanted his son to see from his point of view. He knew how hard he was to Kyle and his mother and had wanted to make up for it but something seems to destroy the plan especially Kimberly.
"I wish you were not my father. I wish I wasn't born. I wish....". He couldn't complete his sentence as he started running his fingers through his blond hair.
Alpha Damien mouth was wide opened. He couldn't say anything as the words couldn't form. The only thing ringing in his head was his son hates him. He should have known it would have gotten to this point. He was brought out of his thoughts when Kyle walked away.
"Mom is hurt". Those were his only words as he disappeared into the building leaving his father in a confused state.
