Chapter 216 - 215

Every pack had the opportunity to bring as many as seven werewolves but only three of them would be allowed to stay in the palace's  guest quarters. The most important guests were the Alpha of the pack of course, the Beta and the head Wolf Warrior. They would be given their own guest house in the compound at the back of the palace where they would be free to do as they pleased. Four packs in total would be visiting BloodBound, each one of them the strongest in their territory. Moonshine in the west, Bloodfangs in the South, Wolfdom  in the North and Bloodmoon in the East. 

Kai had hoped that Philip with his pack would arrive first but unfortunately that was not the case. The first werewolves to arrive were the members of Bloodfangs, with their leader Alloy, their Beta Derek and their head Wolf Warrior Astra. After the rest of the members they had brought in had been guided to one of the inns the palace had reserved to him the three main guests were shown their living quarters and then taken to the throne room. 

If it wasn't Moonshine Kai had really no intention of greeting them but at the sound of that woman's name he was quite curious. She was the one who supposedly had a crush on Philip, something the vampire had never heard before. So, just to check the waters, Kai had joined the rest of his family, Ash, with him standing in a corner of the throne room together with John, to see who that Alpha was. 

They entered the throne room, their eyes instantly focusing on the throne where Cecilia sat, her husband by her side. Under normal circumstances Cecilia would have been the one standing next to him but after everything Aleron had done, well, she wasn't going to make his life easy and she was obviously planning to kill his so-called royal pride. If you wanted to be called a king and treated like one you should have acted like one, she had thought with a grin on her face. Aleron, knowing exactly the way her mind worked, hadn't said anything, just stood besides her. 

Xan, Nelia and Kai stood at the other side of the throne and Kai focused on the new people in his home, staring at them one by one, examining them with his cold blue eyes as they bowed respectfully and greeted the queen. 

Alloy was tall, really tall, with a tanned body and long blond straight hair that reached her back, her lips were full and her eyes reminding Kai that of a doe, big with a honey like color. She was very attractive, her full lips colored a very paint of pink while she wore a simple violet dress with long sleeves. Her Beta, Derek, was shorter than her, black hair and black eyes, he looked strict, dressed in all black, a wolf tattoo on his right tanned arm.  He stood by her side, silent and stern. Astra was their wolf warrior, another tall woman with a pixie cut and brown hair, blue eyes and the same skin complexion as the rest of their pack. She was the one who in a way seemed more approachable. She was looking around, in awe of the huge palace. 

"Thank you for having us, your Highness. We have been anticipating the renewal of the treaties for the sake of both of our people." Alloy said, her tone low. She had a very beautiful voice, mature even for the young way she looked.

"Thank you for accepting our invite, our people have managed to live in peace for years, we do hope you enjoy your time here."

"Well, not really in peace. After what Moonshine did." Alloy said. "I heard a lot of your people died because of their Alpha, sold to the witches."

Kai didn't like her. It took him only a minute to realize that. The way she looked at her mother, she was greedy but the vampire prince hadn't realized for what reason . She wanted to bring Moonshine's mistake to make themselves look better? Or was she trying to hear if there was a punishment awaiting Philip since she was said to like him?

"Yes, the truth is that some mistakes have been made but the problem has been resolved, their old Alpha has been disposed of." Cecilia told her, her cold stare landing on her like a lethal iceberg. His mother didn't like her either, the only thing they seemed to feel the same for. 

"Is that so? Oh right!" she pretended to be surprised. "It is true that news came to us that a new Alpha has been assigned. Philip, isn't that right?"

"I do not involve myself with werewolf business but if I have been informed correctly, yes, that is the new Alpha's name." Cecilia answered her, while Kai was trying to understand where this conversation was heading towards. 

"Yes, Philip is very nice, quite capable of being an Alpha. But there have been some people, talking and telling things that no one could believe about him, you see, the werewolf community is really small and word travels fast." Kai froze, his eyes widened as he heard Alloy giggle. She couldn't, no one could know…

"What do you mean?" 

"A rumor says that Philip, the Alpha of Moonshine is mated with your youngest son? Is that actually true?" Alloy asked her and Cecilia tensed, her hand grabbing the armstand of the throne. 

"Where did you hear that?" she asked her, her tone cold. 

"Oh, well I have my sources, people need to be informed in our line of…work." she said with a beautiful smile. "So is it true?" she asked. 

"What if I am?" Kai stepped in, looking down at her, arrogantly.
