Dexter Pov
"What are you both doing, I told you countless times not to set me up on any blind dates or talk any girl into thinking that they can become the Luna or my mate— Dad what if Grandma and Grandpa hindered you from searching for mum and told you that you need to get another woman to be your mate I know you would lose it, Please just let me find her don't take this from me please Mum please Dad" I pleaded.
" We do understand all of that but the kingdom needs you to have a queen," said my Dad, "Dad please I am asking as your son, not a subject or anything else son please Dad I will find her," I said and he just stared at me for a while "okay just please find her fast and the prophecy just don't forget about that" my dad added "it always at the back of my mind Dad" I said.
"Okay, we will refrain from that from now on but please time is certainly not on our side and we need our queen fast," my dad said. "I understand Dad but I haven't found her we just have to wait a little longer we will find her eventually," I said. "Okay let's get to the party we don't want to keep our guests waiting" my Mum added hurriedly.
"I will take your happy face as your parents finally agreed to find your mate a little longer," said Xavier and I just answered with a smile. "Wow, you really over the moon with their response because I haven't seen you smile this big in a long while," said Devon. "Thanks, bro, they finally allowed me to search for her a little longer and I just pray I find her real soon before my time runs out," I said sadly.
Zahria POV
I was walking through the forest and I heard screams I thought I was hearing things but I kept hearing those screams over again more dreadful than the last one and I knew immediately someone needed help. I changed into Olori masking my scent immediately. Whoever is doing that is on their last lap tonight. As I traced the scent to a cave I saw a Rogue trying to take advantage of a girl who looked like she was terrified of her attacker. He grabbed the girl by her hair and tore open her clothes trying to take advantage of her and I lost it.
I lunged at the guy and immediately tore him apart, I had this murderous gaze on anybody that wishes to die could willingly walk towards me right now. I was so livid and dangerous because the amount of time I had to save people from the situation that I was once in just made me mad at a lot of things. People that are meant to be protected are the same people that are violated and now it's up to someone else to protect the one that should be protected.
As we strike the leader of the gang, others come at me to try to strike but today I was not in a good mood to play I will kill all of them and that I did. Only to get attacked from behind by a coward with a smirk thinking because he strikes with a silver laced wolf's bane knife. It should kill me but am not a normal wolf I shot my claws into his chest and I violently ripped out his heart but the wound still hurts. This fucker will cause me to get scolded by Dad for going in on my own with no backup and Mum will just sob on Dad's chest inconsolably—"they will heal" said Olori we just need to get the girl out of here.
As I walked towards her she looked very scared of me, " I won't hurt you; I am here to help you I need you to stand up for me" I said and she did. I proceeded to ask her if there were other prisoners I should know of and she said most of them were dead and she was the last one here that she didn't know the reason why she was kept alive this long while sobbing in my arms "okay no worries you will be fine" I said to her.
"You are injured terribly how can you help me now" she said "Let's just conclude am not a normal wolf," I said to her —"but I need you to be strong right now I will give you an address they will help you when you get there tell them I sent you" I answered. "What is your name," she asked "Zahria is my name" I said and she left.
"I can't go back home," I told Olori "Mum will start crying and it's impossible to soothe her on this one because this is the most I have been injured we need to find somewhere to lay down so we can heal properly," I said. "I smell a pack not far away from here I just pray they help us— just try to keep our scent I don't want anybody picking on our scent and making it hard for us to escape" I replied, "no problem," said Olori.
We walked some miles and I found the pack as soon as I crossed the borders I was surrounded by different men trying to ensure I wasn't a Rogue. "I need help," I said. "Shift," said one of the men I just laughed "If you are going help me just do that if you can't I take my leave," I said painfully "You think you have a chance Rogue," said the man in disdain.
I was about to rise from my feet to leave their pack all of a sudden I saw darkness. Waking up a few hours later I heard a conversation on how fast my body healed from the amount of injuries I had and how the Alpha and his minions are not around to deal with me and they don't know what to do with me. I just lay there pretending to still be asleep. "Olori are you fine" I said to her trying to ensure that I could still communicate with my wolf.
'Can we escape already, we need to leave here before the Alpha and his minions are back I can't risk trying to fight an army of men in this state" I said hurriedly. "Goodness I am very tired but we should be able to run home from here it seems it's not too far from here" Olori answered. "We just need to leave before they notice we are gone" I added. "Okay let me check if any of them are around to ensure our escape has no interference from anyone," Olori said. "Okay, we should be able to leave" Olori assured me, I jumped out of the window swiftly turning into Olori and running back home before they noticed I was long gone.
As I ran out of that place I had a feeling I would be back sooner than expected. I ran home my injuries were not all healed up but still didn't look as bad as before and as I tried to tiptoe back to my room to avoid my parents, I just heard the lights switched on with my parents on the couch and the girl I saved by their side. I know I was in it when Mom saw my injuries and Dad was staring at me angrily.
"I can explain," I said, "we are listening," Dad said angrily "I saw her in a cave being maltreated by some group of rogues and I couldn't leave her there, they were trying to rape her" I added and my parent's eyes soften, well my Dad eyes soften my mum was sobbing into his neck. "Zahria I told you so many times you shouldn't go on a mission without me— we are a team we need to help ourselves together every time you come back from this solo mission you make your mum cry from the amount of injuries you have," Dad said sadly.
"I understand Dad I just couldn't leave her by herself to come get you I had to go in by myself and I am sorry to bother you, You trying to help me and I keep making mum cry— I am sorry" I said sadly and I ran up to my room because I was too tired to talk I needed my wounds to heal "I know it's not easy to see people taking advantage of people that are weak but you need to take it easy on yourself," Olori said—"how can I take it easy on myself when they are hundreds of people who have faced what I went through from my last family thank the Goddess I had you," I said angrily at myself. "Just take it easy we will help those we can help May the Goddess guide us just rest I am very tired," Olori said and with that I slept.
A few days later, "Miss Zahria you have a meeting with the Black Stone Enterprise" said my secretary Laura "Thanks Laura please tell my driver that he should get the car ready for departure I need to get there early" I told her. After a few minutes, I got ready for my meeting with the Alpha King aka Mr. Dexter Black Stone I heard a lot of things about Mr. Dexter Black Well but I felt uneasy about meeting Mr. Dexter.
"Olori why are feeling so anxious I have a very important meeting in a few minutes and you are making me feel uncomfortable," I said. " I just feel like this— I am not sure but I feel like something big is going to happen today" she replied, "And what might that be" I asked. "That I am not sure" she answered. If that is the case please control yourself I have an important meeting and I can't afford to mess it up alright" I added, " I understand" Olori said rolling her eyes.
"Morning Miss Zahria "my driver Mr. Green greeted and I answered, "Morning Mr. Green let's go now". I arrived at the Black Stone Enterprise and Goddess was it huge I can't afford any mistakes in this Meeting I need this contract to go well. I entered the building and was guided to a meeting room by his secretary and some men were already in the room waiting for me. I greeted them only to get welcomed by the most beautiful scent I ever imagined and looked at the owner of this scent which only meant one thing "MATE" Olori shouted in my mind.
" Well that doesn't happen everyday" I said and decided to walk to my mate offering a handshake which he took and this electrifying shock waved through me and I am not going to lie I love it. I registered to myself that the Alpha king was my mate which could only mean one thing I was the Luna Queen "okay Zahria don't panic he is our mate How can you not tell me that the Alpha king is my mate" I yelled at Olori.
" I know the moon goddess said that my mate is a special person and I will meet them when it is time But the Alpha king is just too much" I added "You can't say that he has been waiting for us the way you have been waiting for him," Olori said. "I understand Olori am sorry I just panicked but goodness is that man fine oh now you can see he is fine," Olori said and I just chuckled.
