Scarlet's POV ...
While l am fixing my things from my two luggage, someone knocked, that is why stopped what I am doing.
I walked many steps to the door because the door is a little bit far away from my walk-in cabinet.
"Hello, Scarlet!"
It was Tyler. Well, I was not expecting someone else to knock and come for this hour. He said to me that he will go here a while ago and I forgot about it.
"How are you? Is your new room okay for you or do you want to go to another room?" He concernedly asked me.
"What? No! This room is very elegant and big for me, and I really love it. I just do not know why this is the room you gave to me. It is like I am the queen of this mansion, and l am not used to it. I think my room should be less luxurious. I mean I am just new here and I am just a half-werewolf and half-human. I think I do not deserve this for now," I humbly said to him.
What l am saying is true. To be honest, I enjoy this room, but I feel a little guilty. After all, I feel like I should not be enjoying it because I am just me.
He laughed because of what I said to him.
"Scarlet, you are a queen here."
"?"
"You still really do not know how things work here. Did not you understand what your father explained to you on the night of your birthday? That you are a Luna and what Luna is?"
"What my dad was saying to me that night was not sinking into my mind. Actually, until now. I can't still believe that all of this is happening."
He walked past me as he went inside my room like he is doing before in my old room. He does not ask permission before going inside.
"Shh, I can go inside this room whenever I want. I am the king of this mansion."
My eyes were widened because of what he said.
"Whatever. You do not look like a king, Tyler." I rolled my eyes at him. He just stayed silent and then he walked towards me. Our face is getting near and near to each other again. I can feel his breath against mine.
"I am the king here and you are my queen."
I do not know what to do! My heartbeat is beating really fast and strong and I know that Tyler feels and hears it.
"Stop! Whatever Tyler."
He went away from me and then he smiled. I fixed myself.
"You're so cute."
I just did not mind what he said to me.
"And you know what, I was thinking of putting us in the same room together," He winked.
"Don't you dare think about it."
"Be thankful because I didn't. Of course, I know, and I still want to respect you and your privacy."
I turned my back on him because I can't stop myself from smiling because of him. My gosh Scarlet!
"Why are you still here? I mean I think you checked on me already. I really need to take some rest, and you too." I faced him again.
"Are you making me leave?"
"Of course not, I was just asking you," I sarcastically said.
"I still need to talk to you about certain things." He started talking seriously.
"Like what?"
"Further details about us. Like why we are going to live in this mansion, explaining to you what your role and my role is, what we need to face, and what is our purpose because you don't know a single detail yet and I can see it on your face that you need to be familiarized with it. Especially since you did not understand much about what your dad told you on the night of your birthday about your destiny."
Maybe he is right. Of course, I also want to know what the purpose is I am here.
I have an idea from what my dad told me, but that is not enough.
"Okay, start giving me knowledge because l will admit that I have not really idea about what is going on right now."
We sat down on the sofa next to my big bed.
"Okay let me start to this house."
"Mansion," I corrected him. I do not want to call this just a house. This place is really applicable for the word 'mansion'.
"Oh yeah right whatever you want to call it ...
This mansion is for us for our time because we are the Alpha and Luna of this generation. This mansion will be passed to the next Luna and Alpha after us."
"So, you mean that there were also past Alpha and Luna that lived here?"
"Technically, yes. This mansion was built for the destined Luna and Alpha, I think in the year 1810."
What?!
"What? Are you serious? That was many years of decades! The design of this house is really modern, and it is not obvious that this made was made in the ear 1880. How?"
"I do not really ask them about that because I am not interested in it, and you should not be interested in it either. You should be interested in our destiny and learning how to do it."
Is he scolding me?
"Yeah whatever, continue speaking. I was just curious." I rolled my eyes.
So, this mansion has many histories because as he said, the several passed Luna and Alpha lived here.
"The next thing is our own roles. Do you have any knowledge of Alphas and Lunas?"
"All I know is that they are the one who is going to rule their ..."
"Pack," He continued.
"Oh yeah pack. That is all, and wait! Alpha and Luna should be together, and they are each other's soulmates," I added.
"Yes, you are right. Alpha is the most leader of a pack. Do you know what a pack is?"
"Werewolves?"
"Yes, you have a point, but you are lacking in the description. A pack is a group of werewolves living together in a certain area and it is needed to be led by a leader which is the Luna and Alpha."
"How many members are a pack?" I was curious.
"I think a pack can have up to 800 members. I am not sure. It can be less, it can be more."
Wow, that is a lot.
"Let's get back to our topic. Do you understand what an Alpha is?"
I nodded.
"Okay, our next is Luna. So, Luna, which is your role, take note of that, us an Alpha's mate. She is like more than the queen of the pack that is I am calling you queen. A Luna also holds power as an Alpha does."
"Mate is like soulmates?"
"Yes, we are destined and chosen by our moon goddess, it is our god."
"So that makes us soulmates?" I looked at him badly. I am too young to have a soulmate. I never imagined having a boyfriend before. All the guys who attempted to court me, l just rejected them all.
"Yes of course! You are in luck because I am your soulmate."
"You always say that."
"It is true."
l just rolled my eyes at him because I know that if I will be against him, he will just say to me again the things he is fighting for. Like he is my soulmate, and I should be lucky about it. Ugh!
"The next thing that I would be discussing with you is our purpose. Of course, we all know that our purpose here is to lead our pack. But before that, we need to learn first the ways, especially you because you lived in the human world for 18 years and you have no idea what a life of a werewolf is. Of course, leading a pack is not just that simple. We have to learn ways. For me, I already know some basics."
I was nervous about what he said. It looks like I will pass through a hole of a sewing needle.
"Do you think I can do it?"
"Of course. Our moon goddess chose you because she knows that you can. Besides, I will be here for you. From now on, think of us as a team."
"Thanks."
"I almost forgot, you are also going to a school here with me. That school also is the school where you are going to be trained and learned."
"Why? Is it just me?" She keeps on saying 'you' to me. I think we also both need to learn because as he said a while ago, he knows some basics and that gives me an idea that he also does not know another forte of being an Alpha.
"Okay fine, us. We need to go to the Ivy Reacher Academy."
So that is the name of the school. It sounds very mysterious and scary.
"Do you think I will be fine there?"
"To be honest, no" He whispered to me. Is he just making me scared?
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, that is why if someone bullies and hurts you there. Just call me right away and I will be there." He stand up and then started walking to the door.
"Maria will call you later for our dinner. For now, take some rest first." He winked and then he went outside my room already.
I was even more nervous when I heard what he said. Will I be able to survive the Ivy Reacher Academy?
