Wulfric's POV
When I got to the side of the store I lifted the wounded wolf that had fallen asleep on the floor. I transformed back to my human skin and used my digits to unlock the door.
I was bare naked as I entered, carrying the wolf in my arms.
As I went into the house attached to the back of the store, I checked the face of the girl in my hand not bothered about her nakedness, I've seen so many naked wolves since we often transform during pack training.
I recognized her as a training warrior that I've never spoken to.
I left the wounded wolf with the maids in my house and left the house through the back door, I took a couple of steps before passing through the boundaries and landing in pack land.
In Prime pack, we were also at night. Our world might be enchanted to stop humans from entering but the sun and moon shine exactly like it would in the human world.
I stepped into a new world and made a run for the pack house.
My house which was the pack house was flooded with bright light for the crowning ceremony even though the main event was taking place at the back of the house.
Civilization had disturbed the normal arrangement of things. Our world had to be moved to the furthest boundaries of Prime valley that humans can't reach unless granted access by a werewolf. Prime pack had the west while blood moon pack had the north.
We went pack into pack lands for training and special events like this.
I crossed the distance in the ground floor of the pack house towards the flight of stair leading to the Alpha suit, but someone was waiting at the top of the stairs.
"Late for your own coronation!. What a good way to start your era as the new lycan king of Prime pack" Andrea spoke up. She stood akimbo like she was a mother talking to her child.
"Is everyone waiting?" I asked.
"Obviously!" Andrea whipped her black hair to the left exposing more of her neck embroidered with a silver necklace. The necklace seemed a little familiar. It reminded me of Mel's necklace upstairs in my room.
"I'll just dress up and be with them in a minute" my eyes unknowingly began to check her out. She was clad in a full length ball gown with Sapphire sequels arranged symmetrically. Her legs were covered with white heels which made her stand taller, almost as tall as Mel.
She had trimmed her hair just above shoulder length, and every strand of her black hair appeared neat and was shinning. For the first time ever I was noticing that Andrea was actually beautiful but I wasn't sure if I felt love for her.
I've known Andrea since when the wolves still lived together at the pack house before her family moved out and I know how she felt for me. She has stayed with me for years hoping to be my Luna but my Luna has yet to be revealed to me. Hopefully tonight, after my coronation.
She cleared her throat uncomfortably, flushing pink and flipping her hair again.
"Won't you go get dressed?" She blinked at me, her round black eyes glittering.
"Right" I pry my eyes off her body aware that she had caught me staring. I ran the rest of the stairs up, went past her and into the Alpha suit.
As I took a first glance at my bed, I was grateful to Andrea, she had arranged my blue cloak and my ceremonial outfit on my bed neatly.
The outfit was a sacared ceremonial cloth worn by all the Lycan king wolves before me and even my father. Now it was my turn to take the responsibility and my rightful place.
I examined them closely for a while before quickly changed into them, I examined myself in the full length mirror on my closet door and left my room again.
Andrea was waiting at the foot of the stairs pressing her phone, she glanced up when I approached her, "Thank God. Shall we?."
"I like your dress" I cleared my throat and managed to compliment her. She did look good, her blue dress matched my blue cloak. I had a feeling she bought the dress intentionally.
"Oh" color rose to her cheek, "Thank you. So do you" she gave a shy smile and asked softly, "Do you remember this necklace?."
"No" I fiddled with putting on my silver cufflinks turning my attention away from her.
"You gave it to me" she said in a low voice, before coming to help with the cufflinks, "Remember, my last birthday?."
She could go into details about it but I still wouldn't recall shit, I found it hard to remember things like that. But I nodded.
"All done," she flipped her hair again.
The way she flipped her hair reminded me of Mel, her hair had been all messed up tonight, I recalled the way she was holding up a stick at a werewolf, how stupid.
"Wulfric."
Andrea's voice snapped me out of my thoughts again.
"You can stare at me later, I know I look good" she said in a slightly flirty tone.
I wouldn't want to stare at her, somehow Mel was clouding my thoughts.
"Let's go" I lead the way to the back of the mansion, into the very spacious garden that was being used for the ceremony, it measured up to 50 acres of land and could conveniently fit the entire wolves of Prime pack.
All eyes landed on me immediately as I showed up with Andrea. The garden had been decorated beautifully and properly lightened that you couldn't tell if it was day or night. Everyone was properly seated on the well arranged chairs, while the council of werewolf court members sat on slightly elevated chairs.
The court members consisted of 3 of the oldest members of the pack. Elder Lint, Elder Rio, and Elder Wickerson. They were consulted before any important rule, decision or punishment was carried out. They were well respected because of their age and wisdom. But I wasn't in good terms with Elder Wickerson, he was against me being crowned as king on excuse that I was too young. Even though I had been preparing for this since forever.
Since it was just him against the 2 other Elders, his plea wasn't accepted and I'm being crowned king at 17.
Sir Frederick nodded for me to take my seat right in front of the entire pack. I gritted my teeth seeing that Nathan, the bastard step brother was seated beside my chair already. He sat shakily unable to meet my eye.
Why does he have to be my Beta of all the people in the world, even a pig would have done greatly. I caught a glimpse of his mother too, the over pompous woman was dressed extravagantly in heavy jewelry and sparkled to a point of blinding in the crowd, she wasn't hard to notice. She scoffed as I passed by her. I can't imagine her having an affair with my father behind my mother's back. It angered me.
Blake was seated too, he is to be crowned the new gamma of the pack tonight. Same age as me. Same as the new group of leaders, Tony and Felicity.
I took my seat proudly with my chin lifted high, I am going to be their new king even though most wolves do not agree.
Elder Troy held the crown above my head and said, "Do we accept Wulfric Oliver Lumen as the new lycan king of Prime pack?!."
The pack echoed a "Yes"
