Writer’s pov 🎀
Alpha’s mansion….!
The queen squirts her eyes and stare at Xander.. Xander sits on a sofa and throws his head back on the headrest.
His mother sits opposite him, knitting patterns.
“Xander, it’s so early, what are you doing here? And where is your mate?” She asked.
“Ah!” Xander sighs for the hundredth time.
“Boy! If you don’t wanna tell me the reason you’ve been sighing, then get your butts back to your mansion!” His mother said.
“Ah!” He sighs again.
“Ok, that’s it, get up!”
His mother got up and was ready to pull him off the sofa, but Xander shakes his head and held onto the sofa tightly.
“Alexa shifted yesterday and….”
“Alexa shifted?!” She cuts him off.
Xander nods.
“Yeah, that’s what I said!”
“She shifted!” She said as if she couldn’t believe her ears.
She does a little happy dance.. Xander simply stares at her as she dances to her heart content.
He wasn’t surprised, he was expecting this reaction from her.. cause he wasn’t any better too yesterday.
Yesterday Liam bugged him until he shifts and laid next to Alexa on their bed.. licking her cheek jumping and wagging his tail happily.
“Mom, are you done?” Xander asks.
She ignores him and continue dancing.
“Mom!”
She stops and stares at him.
“Are you done?”
“Oh, yeah!” She quickly sits down.
There’s a brief silence but Xander’s mom breaks it.. she turns to him with a frown.
“Wait.. Alexa just had her first shift, she needs you most now.. what are you doing here?”
“Er… Jenna said Joyce are with her”
“Jenna and Joyce?!”
She leans forward and smacks his head, he whine and rubs his head.
“What is wrong with you?! She must have tons of questions, why did you leave her with them?”
“I know she have tons of questions, that’s why I sent for Jenna and Joyce to be with her!”
She raised an eyebrow.
“Really?!” He nods. “Why can’t you answer them and get other people to it for you?!” She asked pulling his ear.
“Ow! Mom, stop it.. it hurts!”
His mother scoffs and lets go of his ear.
“Stop saying it hurts anytime I pull your ear, it makes me angry cause I know you don’t feel any pain!” She folds her arms on her chest.
Xander laughs lightly.
“Mom, it really does hurt me when you do it!”
His mother smacks his head again and glares at him.
“Don’t try to change the topic! Get up and go back to your mate, answer whatever questions she have!”
He shakes his head.
“I can’t!”
“You can’t?!”
“No!”
“Why?!”
“Mom, there are some kind of things she ought to know that I don’t think I’m suitable to tell her!”
His mother keeps quiet and stares at him with a raised eyebrow.. waiting for him to continue.
But Xander doesn’t say anything, rather he avoids his mother’s eyes.
“What exactly are those things you think you’re not suitable to tell her?”
Xander gets up and clears his throat.
“Mom, I’m going to the dungeon, I wanna interrogate those hunters and find out their main base from them!”
His mother grabs his hand and pulls him back onto the sofa.. she pass him a very harsh glare.
“Mom…. ”
“Tell me what exactly it is that you aren’t suitable to tell her yourself”
Xander keeps quiet for a moment, then clears his throat.
“Things like heat… Mating… Marking… I can’t explain these things to her clearly” he said… blushing as he’s already thinking about it.
His mother thinks about it and nods in agreement.
“Yeah, you really can’t tell her about these!”
His mother stares at him briefly and a mischievous smirk grows in the corner of her l-ips.
“Xander?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you wanna mate with her now?” She asked.
Xander’s face, ears and neck all turn red instantly.. he choked on his spit and coughs lightly.
“Mom! What are you talking about?!”
“What do you mean.. don’t tell me you don’t wanna mate with her!”
Xander scratches the back of his neck nervously.
“Mom, I don’t wanna rush Alexa, we’ll go step by step!”
“Silly boy, you don’t take this step by step.. you have to speed up the process…”
“No, Alexa and I will take it step by step.. we’ll let everything happen naturally”
His mother sighs and rests her head on her palm.. she look like she’s tired of living right now.
“Ah! When I thought I can finally have some grandpups to play with! I’m gonna die lonely… Tell me why I should continue living!” She laments dramatically.
Xander shakes his head and got up… He knows exactly where this is going.
“Mom, I have to go now!”
She ignores him and continue her dramatic lamentation.
“No grandpups will miss me when I die… I’m so miserable, I’m living a miserable life!”
“Ok, that’s it.. I’m leaving, I’ll call your mate to come take care of you!” Xander said and head towards the door.
His mother stops crying and rushes after him.
“Stop there you unfilial son! Stop right ther…. ”
And he’s gone. His mother sighs and shakes her head.. them she laughs.
“Such a cute pup!”

Alexa’s pov 🎀
I gulp down a glass of water and frown as I noticed Miss Damien and Joyce are staring at me.
They’ve been watching me eat since Xander left and I’m kinda getting tired of their stare.
It’s as if they’re here to arrest me for a crime….I clear my throat.
“Do you guys have anything to say?” I asked.
They both nod.. I raised an eyebrow, signaling them to speak.
“Alexa, do you feel pains in anywhere?” Miss Damien asked.
Pains? I shake my head.
“You don’t feel pains around your jaw? Like your teeth wanna fall off?” Joyce asked.
Oh, that… I nod. It’s like someone is trying to dig out my teeth.. it’s worse than a decay cavity.
Miss Damien reach for something in her bag and hands it to me… it’s a small bottle with a potion in it.
“Drink it twice daily for three days!” She said.
“What’s this?” I asked looking at it strangely.
“Hmm, I don’t know.. my mom gave it to me when I had my first shift and it helped numb the pain!” She explained.
I nod and drops it on the table. I look at them, waiting for them to continue.
“So, since you had your first shift, I’d advice you stay indoors for now!” Miss Damien said.
“Why?”
“Heat!” Joyce and Miss Damien said simultaneously.
I stare at them and frown in confusion.
“Heat?”
“Yeah, you’re going to go into heat and you’ll need Xander to be with you all the time then!”
Heat? I thought only animals can be in heat.
“Wait… Is it the kind of heat I know about?” I asked.
“Which kind of heat do you know?” Joyce asked me back.
“I only know that animals go into heat and that’s the time they mate and reproduce!”
They both nod.
“Yes, we are talking about the same heat!” Joyce said.
My mouth hangs open as I don’t know what to say… I mean, how can humans go into heat?
“We are humans, how can we go into heat?”
Joyce and Miss Damien laughs lightly.
“Honey, we are partly animals, we are wolves!” Miss Damien said.
Then I think about it and realize she’s right, we are werewolves… well, I just discovered I’m a werewolf today.. so it’s possible that I can go into heat period.
I nod… but a question strikes me.
“Why do I need Xander during my heat period? I don’t wanna mate with him yet!”
“Heat is painful, very painful… It hurts more than menstruation cramps and worse part of it is… no drug can numb the pain!” Joyce said.
“Huh?!”
I usually take drugs for my menstruation cramps, now they’re saying there’s no drug for heat?!
“Your mate’s touch is the only drug to the pain!” Joyce said.
“Like we must mate?!” I asked in panic.
Miss Damien shakes her head and smile.
“Dear, some werewolves mate during heat, but since you’re not ready to mate with him yet, he’ll just have to hold you closer to him!”
I released a long sigh.. thank God! I thought I’d have to mate with him.. but I know we’re still gonna mate someday!
A very embarrassing question pop in my mind.. I clear my throat and gulp.
“er… I wanna as you guys a very important question”
“Go on!”
I stare at them brief and look away.. I don’t know how to ask this questions.
“Alexa, you wanna ask us something!” Joyce said.
I close my eyes briefly.
“The… er.. mating… ” I trail off hoping they’d get my question.
But they just stay silent waiting for me to continue… I thought werewolves speak and understand each other telepathically.
“If I wanna mate with Xander… are we gonna do it in human form or we’ll do it while we’re wolves!” I asked quickly.
My cheeks heating up from embarrassment.. but Joyce and Miss Damien don’t seem to be embarrassed.. it’s like a normal question to them.
“Well, it depends” miss Damien paused. “Some people like mating in human form and others in wolf form!”
Joyce grabs my hand and closes her eyes as if she’s reminiscing something.
“Alexa, I’d advise you mate in wolf form… trust me it’s the sweetest!”
I smile at her statement while Miss Damien smacks her head gently.
“Corrupt wolf, don’t influence her!”
“Oh!”
We shared a brief laugh.
“I have another question!” I said.
“Go on, ask anything!” Miss Damien said.
“I normally see my brothers stare at each other and they’ll understand… I guess that’s a secret way of communication among wolves… I don’t seem to have it, why?”
“That’s because your pack-link is not open yet!” Joyce said.
“Why? How can I open it?”
“Every pack have their own symbols, we all have it that’s why we can communicate telepathically!” Joyce said again.
I frown, I want to understand something but she’s making it even more difficult to understand.
“Joyce, I don’t think I understand you”
“Alexa, darling, after the birth of every pup in any pack, the Alpha will bite a particular s₱0t in their arms.. ”
she stretches out her hand and shows me an example.. there’s a tattoo like word imprinted in her arms..*crescent moonstone*
“.. this is what opens the pack-link and you can mind-link anyone in the pack.. you don’t have it because you weren’t born in the pack, so the alpha didn’t give you the mark!” Miss Damien explained.
I nod, now I understand it clearly.
“Then how can I get the alpha to give me the mark?”
“You don’t need the alpha to give you!” Miss Damien replied.
“Why?” I frown.
“Because your mate is an Alpha prince.. just wait for him to mark you and you’ll get both the pack-link and mate-link!”
I nod but quickly frown again.
“Mate-link?! There’s also a mate-link?!”
They both nod.
“Explanation please?”
“The mate-link is a special link between you and your mate, you’ll get to know each other’s thought… and it’ll help you locate your mate easily!”
I gasp.
“Know each other’s thought?!”
“Yeah!”
“That’s invasion of privacy!” I exclaimed.
They laughed and shake their heads.
“Don’t worry baby, there’s a way to block Xander from knowing your thoughts, I’ll show you how when you’re marked!” Miss Damien said.
I nod and sigh.
There better be a way to block him from knowing my thoughts.. I always have wild imaginations, can’t let Xander know about them.
“Do you have any other questions?”
I think for a brief moment and shake my head.
“No, that’s all for now!” I replied.
My eyes wander around and lands on the wall clock in the living room… 9:48am!
“Joyce, we’re late for school”
“No! Missy, you’re not going to school for the wh0le if this week!” Joyce said.
“Why?!”
“You just shift, your sense of hearing and smell is still over the place… You shouldn’t be in a noisy and crowded place right now!”
“My sense of hearing and smell?”
She nods.
“Listen, what do you hear?”
I stayed silent and listen… I hear people talking as if they are right behind me.. I turn but found no one, we’re the only people in the mansion.
“That’s people talking in the infirmary… It’s very far from here, like 10minutes walk but you can still hear them!” Joyce said.
Then I remembered when I woke up this morning, I heard water dripping on the sink from Xander’s room.
I smiled, being a werewolf is actually so cool… No one can talk behind my back now!
“These are the perks of being a werewolf! Do you like it?” Miss Damien asked.
I nod. “Yes!”
She smiles. Joyce puffs out air and rests her head on the counter.
“Thankfully, you didn’t freak out like I had expected!”
I rolled my eyes, I’m actually surprised too.. if it were my former self I’d have freak out but I didn’t.
“Oh, Alexa, I heard you dealt with some hunters! That was so cool!” Joyce said.
I smiled.
“I was just trying to save Eleanor!”
“And you didn’t think about your own safety, that’s selfless.. a good trait of a great leader!” Miss Damien compliment me.
“Thank you, Miss Damien!”
Then there’s a moment of silence.
“Right, where’s Eleanor?” I asked.
“With her mate!” Joyce replies.
I nod and sigh… I can’t go to school today, I’ll be bored to death.
Miss Damien claps her hand and jump in her chair.
“Let’s show you around the pack since you aren’t going to school today!” She said.
“But Joyce said Xander said I shouldn’t leave the mansion”
“He said you shouldn’t go to school.. besides we are just walking around the pack!”
I think about it, she’s right. I nod and got off my chair.
“I should go change first!”

Writer’s pov 🎀
Crescent high…! 9:50am…!
Brett look towards the desk Alexa normally occupy and got another disappointment… Alexa still haven’t showed up.
*.. that’s the end of today’s class!* He heard the teacher say.
He got up and rushed out like everyone else.. he stands by the door, waiting for Janet.
He pulls Janet to corner immediately she steps out.
“What are you doing?! Let go!” Janet yells at him and snatches her hand from him.
“Where’s Alexa? Why didn’t she come to school today?” He asked her.
She glares at him and scoffs.
“How would I know? Had your so-called plan worked, she’d be with you by now!”
Brett narrows his eyes and knits his brows together.
“Are you trying to say she’s with Xander?”
“Possibly!” She said and turns to leave but suddenly stops as if she just remember something.
She smiles at him.
“Oh, I don’t see how our cooperation is doing me any good, I’ll get Xander in my own way.. forget about us working together!” She fl¡ps her hair and walks away.
Brett grits his teeth.. clenched his jaw and punches the wall.

Alexa’s pov 🎀
“Perfect!” Miss Damien exclaims.
I look down at my outfit and frown slightly… this is something Xander would totally disapprove of!
I’m wearing a ripped off faded blue jean shorts that’s only a few inches below my butts… A white crop top and a fades blue jean jacket.
My hair falls perfectly on my shoulders.. a pair of white sneakers to compliment my outfit.
“Epitome of beauty!” Joyce supports her.
I sigh and tries to take off the jacket and change into something else.. but Miss Damien stops me.
“What are you doing? Why are you taking it off?”
“Xander’s not gonna approve of this, I don’t want another scene of his jealousy and tantrums” I replied.
She slaps my hands away from the jacket and adjusts it well on me.
“Alexa, listen to me, I know Xander is your mate, you ought to respect his decision and all… But it doesn’t mean you’ll play the obedient mate all the time”
She throws an arm around my shoulder.
“There are times you have rebel.. make him jealous.. get him angry.. pick unnecessary fights with him… All these will spice up your relationsh¡p!” She turns to Joyce. “Right, Joyce?”
“Miss Damien is right, you don’t have to be so submissive all the time!” She winks at me.
I inhaled deeply… There’s no need to argue with them cause they won’t listen to me.
“Fine, so where are you girls taking me?” I asked.
“Packhouse!” Miss Damien replies.
“Packhouse?!”
“What’s with the surprised look?” She asked.
“What if we run into Xander there?” I look down at my outfit. “He’ll get angry!”
Miss Damien and Joyce sighed.
“Are you deaf? What did we just talked about?” Joyce asked.
“And besides, I just mind-link Xander, he’s in the dungeon!” Miss Damien said.
I nod, that’s good, we won’t run into each other then.
“Ok, let’s go!” I said.
★★★★★
Someone bumps into me just as we step foot in the packhouse… I raised my head and realize it’s Micah.
He’s got dark circles under his eyes and his hair is disheveled.
“Micah, what happened to you? Are you ok?” I asked him.
He raised his head and sees me… his eyes suddenly lits up and he pulls me into a brief hug.
“Lexa! You’re finally here!” He said.
“Er.. were you looking for me?”
He nods.
“Yeah, I wanted to come get you!”
“What happened?!” I asked looking at his face.
Judging from how he look right now, I don’t think he had any sleep last… If he knows how ugly he look right now, I’m sure his scre-m will blow off the roof of this packhouse.
“It’s my mate, she’s being hiding away from me in my bathroom since last night!” He complains.
“Hiding away from you?” I turn to look at Miss Damien and Joyce if they have any idea what’s going on but they shrug.
“What happened? Why is she hiding from you?” I asked.
He shakes his head.
“I don’t know, she’s been asking to see you!”
She was fine after I talked to her yesterday, what’s wrong with her now?
Micah holds my hand.
“My sweet, most beautiful, loving and caring sister! You seem to be the only one she trust right now.. please help me check on her!”
I sighed. I guess I’ll just talk to her before we continue this tour… I nod.
“Ok!”
He embrace me tightly and showers k-sses on my face.. them pulls away with a smile on his face.
“Thank you, kiddo! You can’t imagine how happy I am!” He paused and look upstairs. “You know my room, right?”
I nod.
“Ok, I’ll have to go to the training ground now.. I’ll be back soon!”
I nod but quickly remember his ugly face, I can’t let him go out like this or he’ll be so mad at me when he finds out how hideous he look.
“Er.. Micah, you might wanna check your face in a mirror!”
“My face?!” He exclaimed.
He dips his hand in his pocket and quickly brings out a small mirror.
“Tell me you took that mirror with you by mistake” Joyce said.
I rolled my eyes, if only she knew him.
“I bring it with me everywhere, sweetheart!” He replies her.. Joyce’s mouth just hangs open.
“Close your mouth, Joyce, you’re gonna catch some flies!” I told her.
“Arghhhhhhhhhh!”
My hands quickly flies to cover my ears… Now I know how sensitive my ears really are.
Miss Damien and Joyce also cover their ears as Micah continues scre-ming… I told you guys, he’d scre-m the roof off.
He stops and runs his fingers through his face.. combing his hair with his fingers.
“F**k! What happened to my face?! Why did I end up like this?! I look so hideous!! Can this be the end of my life?! I’m dying!! I’m dying!! My face, I…..”
I tone him off and turns to Miss Damien and Joyce.. I signal them to go upstairs with me.
They nod and we left Micah to continue his drama downstairs.
To be continued.
