Audrey's pov:-
I woke up after a good long nap . I got up from my bed , the weather was a bit on colder side from our pack because mountain range started from Blue Mountain pack but cold never bothered werewolves anyway. I entered the bathroom and then I remembered my stuff was still in Alpha's car .
I came downstairs remembering the way from which Brian has brought us here . We were staying at the pack house so I found some people around . I need the car keys damnit. I mindlinked Lucas and then Mia .both didn't answer
"Still sleeping I guess " I murmured .
Find Alpha Rob , Artemis said.
I don't know where Alpha Rob is , I can't mind-link him either , I guess he is out of range, Ah.
I was pacing in the pack hall , when someone tapped my shoulder and I jumped.
" I am sorry did I startle you? " Brian said.
" It's fine Br-Alpha, I was just lost in thoughts" I said sheepishly.
" You don't need to call me Alpha , atleast until I inherit the title officially , you are an Alpha too(he means you have Alpha blood ) and above all we have same lineage, so spare the titles" Brian said.
What ? What is he talking about ?
" I am sorry but you have been mistaken , we don't have the same lineage and I don't have any Alpha blood " I said
He looked at me a bit confused then shrugged ,
" Okay , I guess you don't know . Anyways why are you pacing around ."
" I need to get my bags out of the car and I don't know where Alpha Rob is " I sighed.
" Alpha Rob left with Dad but I saw your beta ,David parking the car , maybe he has the keys. Come on let's go and ask him " Brian said and I followed him .
" Maybe he is sleeping I don't want to disturb him " I said gritting my teeth.
" He was just talking to Mom , I saw him , he isn't sleeping . Come on i will show you his room " Brian grabbed my hand .
We stopped in front of a door after passing through numerous hallways.
" That's it , this is David's room . Go on knock. " Brian said .
I was about to knock when the door flew open before it could hit me I jumped back but stumbled because the floor was quiet slippery and was about to land hard on my ass when someone caught me . It was Brian . He was looking down at me staring me with his beautiful sparkling blue eyes . He gave me a smile and I blushed , Damn !! , don't smile at me like that man. We were both lost in each other for a moment until someone cleared their throat ,
" I would prefer if you two take your stuff somewhere else , you guys are blocking the way " Beta David said clenching his jaw .
Why does he have to appear , Goddess , I was finally having such a cliche good moment of my life . But all good things must come to an end so I stood up and looked at beta David .
Well he looks angry , Artemis chuckled.
He gets like that when he sees me don't worry .
He shouldn't talk to Brian like that , we are not at our pack man and Brian is the Alpha . But last time I checked our beta is crazy so I hope blue Mountain pack puts him in a dungeon for insulating their Alpha.
" It's you Alpha Brian , I didn't see you man , do you need something from me " Beta's demeanor instantly changed when his eyes landed on Brian .
It didn't seem like he was faking so at least he respects him if not me .
" I don't , but Audrey does " Brian said pointing at me .
" Really , Audrey needs something from me " He said in mocking tone .
I gritted my teeth," I need car keys , I need my stuff "
" Why didn't you take it out before" he said irritated.
" I forgot " I said curtly.
" give her keys David, stop irritating her " Brian stared at him.
Finally , someone who stands up to him . He can't say no to Brian can he?. He is our host and our beta is here to find his precious little mate .We stan Brian.
" I will take her , come Audrey " beta David gestured and I followed him .
" Thanks for your help Brian" I smiled
" No problem " he smiled back and left . I turned to beta David and after seeing his angry face , my smile dropped.
We reached the parking lot . He opened the car trunk and threw my duffle bag on the ground .
" Here " he said shutting the trunk with a loud noise .
" There is one more Beta " I said
" No there isn't , you can check " he smirked.
I ran towards car and opened the trunk , it was empty.
No , no , no I gripped my hair but then my eyes landed on beta who was staring at me , " have you both met before ?" .
What , my bag with my clothes is missing and he is asking dumb questions.
" You and Alpha kid Brian , you both know each other " he asked again.
" I don't know him , I am visiting the blue Mountain pack for the first time " I rolled my eyes.
" The why aren't you calling him with his title , it will be considered disrespectful Audrey , I don't want you getting in trouble " beta David said stoically.
" He said I didn't need to call him by his title and you don't have to worry about me getting in trouble " I said shutting the car trunk.
"Where is my bag? " I said crying
literally.
" I threw it " beta said shrugging.
" What ,you th-rew my bag out " i yelled .
" I told you to to choose one as there wasn't enough space but you didn't so I threw the red one out " he said casually.
" You_ did _ what ?" I yelled my eyes black with rage .
" Lower your voice Audrey , I threw it in our pack's parking lot . It should be there some where " he shrugged.
" you'll pay for it ", I growled . It was louder than I imagined . Even beta David was in shock , he turned towards me and his his eyes grew wider.
" Stop right there Audrey " he used his beta voice on me but I don't know why it didn't work , technically it should have worked but it didn't .
I took my stance and marched towards him , but before I could reach him someone grabbed me from my back . I growled but when I saw Brian , I calmed down a bit . I saw some pack members staring at me which have probably gathered due to my growl .I realized I wasn't at my pack . If I did something wrong it would taint my pack's name .
" I am fine Brian let me go " I said to him , he nodded and let go of me . I stood up and grabbed my bag and turned towards beta David , " you 'll pay for it and you'll regret it " and then I left .
David's pov:-
I was left in shock . WTH was that ? .why didn't my command work on her ? . It was always quiet weird for me that why couldn't she obey my command like all others do . She wasn't as afraid of me as others and today she tried to attack me and didn't stop even when I ordered . Why didn't she stop , it wasn't working on her .
" Fiesty isn't she " Brian chuckled.
Why is this guy always around Audrey huh?
" Surprised that your beta command didn't work " Brian grinned.
He was pissing me off now.
" Calm down it's not your fault , beta command doesn't work on those of Alpha blood if they have guts and she has them " Brian said.
" Audrey isn't of Alpha blood . She isn't from the head family of Riverdales which have Alpha blood coursing through their veins " I said stoically as this guy wasn't making any sense.
" Who said she was from the Head family of Riverdales, She is from here , she is from the current ruling blood line of the Blue Mountain pack . Her name is Audrey Blue Miller " . Brain smirked , " I am gonna go check up on her " .
I gritted my teeth .
Do you think he is telling the truth ? Dakota my wolf inquired.
He has no reason to lie and our command doesn't work on her very well I have noticed that before but today she completely defied it.
Audrey's pov :-
I slammed my door shut and opened my duffle bag . It just had my night pajamas and athleisure and my tooth brush and accessories and underwear. All my formal clothes were in the other bag .
What do i do now ? .
There was a knock on the ," I am coming in Audrey" I heard Brian .
" Come in " I said.
" So what happened , I heard the growl and rushed to parking lot and then I saw you 'negotiating ' with David " Brian made air quotations.
" He left my trolley bag which had all my clothes back at our pack intentionally " I scoffed.
" That's a major problem then " Brian said brooding and I chuckled.
" well Mom is calling you she just mind-linked me . She is in the library " Brian said and I followed him.
When we reached the library he gestured me to go in .
" You aren't coming ?" I asked him
" I think it's better if you two do this alone " he said and left.
I took a deep breath and entered the library .
" Come sit here Audrey " Luna Ayla gestured to a seat in front of her . I sat down " want some tea " she asked .
" No thanks " I declined.
" Do you know why I have called you here ?"
" No , I have no idea"
" I guess Kate really didn't tell you anything but she shouldn't be hiding this from you . I don't know why she didn't tell you "
" Tell me what ?"
" That Kate is from this pack "
" Whaaaat " I said shocked
Her words reminded me how my mom's face turned white when Alpha called her that I was accompanying him to the Blue Mountain pack . She said she didn't want me to go but she can't stop me it's Alpha's order.
" Bu-t w-hy didn't she tell me . Why would she hide it from me . And why should I believe you ?" I asked
" You don't have to believe me , you could ask Kate yourself if you want " Luna Ayla said.
She won't tell me anything, if she kept it hidden for 18 years then she was planning to keep it that way .
" Does my father know ? Does he know my mom is from this pack " I asked.
" Of course he knows , your father Krist and your Alpha Rob found their mates at the same time when they visited our pack for the first time years ago " , Luna Ayla said.
I listened in silence , I wasn't expecting it to turn out like that but still it wasn't like there was something wrong . Why did mom hide it from me ?
" Why hide it ?" I asked Luna
" Ask Kate " she answered.
"She won't tell me . You can tell me i don't care , just tell me " I begged curiosity was killing me.
" Everyone deserves to know what they are ? Where they are from ? Who were their ancestors . So I will tell you but answer my few questions at first " Luna looked at me .
" Yes " I said.
" How is an Alpha chosen in your pack " she asked me .
" Same as everywhere Luna , previous Alpha's eldest son with approval from majority of the pack " I said .
" And who rules your pack right now ?"
" The head family of Riverdales . Our pack's 40% population consists of those of Riverdale blood line . They are the strongest among us and most our warriors and ranked wolves are of Riverdale blood line . The head family has ruled over Riverdale pack for centuries and we are all satisfied with them . The head family of any pack consists of those Alpha blood which in our pack are just Alpha Rob and Lucas . There is quiet a large number of Riverdales but they don't have Alpha blood so unless they challenge and defeat our Alpha , they can't rule " I explained.
" And who rules Blue Mountain pack right now?" Luna asked.
" Blue family " I answered.
