บท 18: Packhouse
The huge gate of the Mansion of Prince Alcyd opens signaling the arrival of the Alpha of Golden Moon Pack. Then the convoy of black cars parked in front of the entrance of the mansion.
Prince Alcyd marvels at the view of his beautiful luna as she sleeps peacefully. Garrett wanted to inform his Alpha with their arrival in the mansion but he let the Alpha Prince have his moment basking in the beauty and absorb the spark that he feels from the mate bond.
It sank into the mind of the Alpha Prince that they have arrived already and time to wake his mate since they have plenty to discuss in regards to the arrangement and so she can be situated with her new normal.
"We have arrived, sleeping princess!" Prince Alcyd tries to wake his mate up.
Selene started to open her eyes and started to mumble. Though, her grogginess may seem to affect her body movement. The reality came rushing into her, that she has finally arrived in the packhouse of her mate.
And it is not just an ordinary packhouse. She is left astonished as she gets off the car, amused by the fascinating space that the packhouse occupies with such clearly expensive murals and decorations. She can hear the fountain running from a distance and smell the fragrance of the beautiful flowers coming from a garden.
Prince Alcyd started giving instructions to every staff that welcomed their arrival and mind-linked his Executive Officers to begin their facade and role in making sure that no one finds out the real identity of Selene.
Athena, the Beta's mate, carefully ushered the mate of their Alpha Prince while she is yet to recover from her fascination towards the place. Instead, Selene became more fascinated and left bemused by the regal ambiance inside the mansion. She thought that the outer appearance of the mansion was already impressive. She was more impressed by how stunning the interiors and murals inside the mansion. She was in awe while they walk through the halls of the mansion. She can estimate how expensive every furniture that is placed inside the mansion.
Selene can also feel the amusement of Sylvia inside her mind but she tries her best to contain her overjoyed spirit wolf.
Prince Alcyd, Selene, and the other Executive Officers immediately went straight ahead to the main office to discuss the new living arrangement and how will Selene be situated in the packhouse. The other staff of the mansion went back to their daily chores right after they welcomed their Alpha Prince.
"Everybody sit down!" Prince Alcyd instructed everybody as he stood by the front of his desk.
Selene remained to stand "Before you start giving orders, I want you to know first my conditions for why I agreed to come along with you and your pack plus I want you to prove me that Georgie and Freddie are alive."
"Athena will go with you to visit where the rogue brothers stay. So now, let us have your conditions since I am eager to know them." Unbeknownst to the Alpha Prince what kind of conditions that his mate has prepared for.
"First, I do not want any bodyguards following me around.
Second, No harm shall be done to my friends.
Third, my decision will not be dictated by you nor will I be forced into doing something that I do not want to.
Fourth, You have to find my older brother, my only blood relative in this world
and lastly, TBF" as Selene declares her conditions fearlessly to her mate.
Prince Alcyd stares seriously at his mate, thinking how to respond to his mate's conditions.
"Regarding your first condition, since we will be introducing you as the assistant of our chef in the mansion so bodyguards will be unnecessary and it will be useless to put bodyguards on you since you were able to take down my strongest male and female Executive Officer." Prince Alcyd reassures his mate.
Sylvia aired her disappointment in Selene's mind that they will be introduced only as a staff in the mansion.
"So I will be disguised as staff in your mansion and not announced as your mate?" Selene asks.
"I can announce to everybody that you are my mate right after we complete the process of mating. So, if you are ready then we can."
Selene immediately understood the need for hiding the fact that she is Alcyd's mate. "I completely understand now. So I am okay not being introduced as your mate."
"Good then! for your second request. Do not worry, the rogue brothers will not be harmed as long as they follow the rules and regulations here in our pack. They are made to stay in the rogue residences where all submitted rogues reside
For your third condition, I will never force you to do something that you do not want but there are things that you need to follow even you are my mate. For your fourth condition, I will do my best to find your brother but you need to help us describing his appearance so we can use our network of intelligence and connections in finding him.
So for your last condition, TBF, I do not understand what you mean about that." Prince Alcyd tells his beautiful mate.
"It means 'TO BE FOLLOWED', meaning I may add more when I think of something better. So you better follow all of it if you want me to stay."
The other present Executive Officers tried to contain their amusement towards Selene since she had the audacity to even outwit their Alpha and fearlessly express what she wants. They find it amusing that for the first time their ruthless Alpha Prince has found his own match.
The Alpha Prince coughed pretentiously to get the attention of his amused Executive Officers.
"I totally agree with all of your conditions. Now, let Lady Sonja enter, so we can start introducing Selene to her new living arrangement."
"Wait! What living arrangement?" Selene airs out her curiosity while Prince Alcyd simply ignored her last query.
Lady Sonja enters and greets everyone inside the main office with so much grace and formality.
"Lady Sonja is not just the Chef of the packhouse, she is also the Chief of Staff. She is my most trusted member of the pack next to my Executive Officers. She knows everything and we have informed her with my plans regarding how you will be situated here under the Golden Moon Pack Territory. So, she will assist you in everything you need to know and for you to have."
Lady Sonja made a facial expression towards the Alpha Prince as if he forgot to mention something.
"Oh! regarding your education. I presume you are still under 18 since you were not able to identify me as your mate. Am I right?" Prince Alcyd asks his mate.
"Yes you are right, I am 17 years old and I do not have any formal schooling. Though, I was homeschooled by my late foster mother." uncomfortably declared by Selene which even created more awkward silence in the office.
After a few moments of silence, Prince Alcyd instructed Lady Sonja to make sure that Selene gets enrolled in the Town's Highschool as Senior High and make sure that the necessary paper works are all taken care of.
He even informed Selene that she will be treated and known in the pack as Lady Sonja's niece to avoid any suspicion from others. They must make sure of Selene's safety through this disguise of her identity until Selene decides to be ready to undergo the process of completing mate-ship and embracing the role of being the future Luna of the Golden Moon pack.
"Lady Sonja, kindly show Selene around and bring her to the town so she can buy stuff for herself because it seems like she only has a bag of clothing. Kindly also prepare her wardrobe without creating any suspicion from other staff" as Prince Alcyd instructed Lady Sonja, Selene could not believe while she is listening that her living arrangement is being set by someone else.
"Yes! Alpha!" Lady Sonja respectfully and obediently responded as she started to escort Selene out of the main office. "Luna, this way Please!"
"Please, Just call me Selene" Selene explains to Lady Sonja what she prefers to be called.
As soon as Lady Sonja and Selene left the room, Prince Alcyd started to give instructions to his Executive Officers to do a background check on their future Luna and how come she is on her own. He even furthered on how will they take turns in making sure that Selene is being carefully watched.
"Moving on to the next Agenda, I want you all to prepare for the upcoming Parliament Session. My father has called the attention of every member of the parliament regarding the rising issue with the Legion of Vampires and the self-declared King of the Rogue Werewolves that has become alarming to the kingdom. Lastly, we have to observe in the next Altum Council Meeting."
"Are we bringing the future luna with us? or will she stay with Lady Sonja while we depart for a Royal business" Garrett asked his Alpha
"I cannot expose her yet to the royal court especially it is festered with vipers. My enemies are all waiting to find my weakness. Imagine what will happen once they find out that Selene is my mate. So I must protect her at all costs from any possible danger." Prince Alcyd clearly states his worry in front of his Executive Officers.
It is their first time to see their Alpha Prince not to be confident and baring his fear in front of them. They do realize now that the Alpha Prince has gained one big weakness that he wants to remain hidden.
All the Executive Officers pondered on the new realization that their Alpha Prince biggest weakness is no other than, their future Luna, SELENE.
