Filed To Story: The Guardian Wolf and her Alpha Mate
“As soon as we felt her power Alex became restless, he was about to call the council when elder Martin reached out. Alex was too impatient to call you and thought the best idea was to just head here straight away” Ophelia says with humour as she looks at her mate. “Learning she was your mate was a lovely surprise though I have to admit.”
“Why don’t they sense Kingsley?” Zeus asks me suddenly.
“I think it’s part of his protection by the Moon Goddess perhaps, it’s worth looking into” I reply to him.
“Do you realise how incredible it is to have a Guardian Wolf alive in our lifetime?” Alex asks us with amazement.
“Elder Martin didn’t say she was my mate?” I check.
“No, he said she resided in your pack and that was enough for me, he said you’d be reaching out as you had a problem anyway and I thought to hell with it, we are coming to you” he says with a shrug.
“Well I’m glad you have” I sigh, “there is a lot going on and a lot we still don’t understand.”
“Alpha? Can I have a quick word?” Axel calls as he knocks on the door.
“Yes come in Axel” I shout before he opens the door and freezes at the sight before him.
“Alpha King, Lady Ophelia it’s an honour” he says bowing low. “I’m sorry I’ve been in the office I appear to have missed you arriving.”
“Hello Axel” Alex says stretching out his hand for him to shake.
“News?” I ask slightly impatiently.
“Right yes. News” he says still in shock, “I spoke to Elder Martin and he has further interrogated Dr Norton. Only Charles and Caroline ever had trackers installed, they were designed by Dr Norton so he has provided us with information on them. So we don’t need to worry about Hannah.”
“That’s good to hear” I say with relief.
“There’s more..” Axel says with excitement. “Dr Norton has ever so kindly provided the details of the trackers, I believe I can find Charles.”
“Seriously?” I ask looking at him in amazement.
“Yes! I was going to deactivate Caroline’s but then I thought perhaps we could lead a false trail to keep them busy for a few days. I know this weekend would be good to go ahead with no problems” he says.
Clicking my fingers I pat his shoulders in pride, “you are brilliant! Yes, Laurence is due back in a couple of hours, once he’s back you can arrange with him a false trail for the next few days. How long do you need to find Charles?”
“Give me 3 hours, can I have permission to stay here and only Evan travel back to Alpha Henry’s pack and run the scheduled scout missions? I believe I could be of more use here at the moment, Alpha Henry has cleared it” he says eagerly.
“Most definitely” I agree. “So Evan will be participating in the 30 hour mission yes? Due back Sunday morning and will have time to rest before the ceremony?”
“He will” Axel says confidently.
“Then go ahead, go and organise that and I will come find you once I am done here. Thank you Axel, Nova will be very pleased” I say with a grin which he returns. Bowing low to our guests he leaves with a spring in his step.
“Ceremony?” Alex asks with a mischievous gleam.
“Novas Luna Ceremony, and yes before you start you were to be invited. We only decided this morning to hold it in 3 days” I say rolling my eyes at him.
“Oh good..I do love a party” he smirks before Nova glides back into the room.
“Refreshments will be here shortly” she says softly.
“Congratulations on your upcoming ceremony Nova” Ophelia says as she steps forward to kiss her cheeks softly. “We can’t wait to celebrate with you.”
“Thank you” Nova says with a soft blush, “I have a room being prepared for you both if you’d like to stay here?”
“We won’t be leaving anytime soon Nova, I meant it when I said we would stay by you throughout this” Alex says as he guides Ophelia to sit beside him. “I would appreciate being told more?”
“Of course” I say instantly as Nova sits beside me also.
For the next 20 minutes we sit there and explain in detail everything that has happened thus far as they sit and listen attentively without asking questions. Once we have finished Alex leans forward and rests his elbows on his knees with his chin on his hands.
“That’s a lot” he comments.
“I did warn you” I chuckle.
“Can I offer my advice?” He says.
“Please do” Nova replies quickly.
“I think finding Charles is top priority, what Caroline said about your mother finding you I think could also be true. She has had 25 years with her parents now, to her knowledge her mate betrayed her and their mate bond, I think it’s a strong possibility she doesn’t know of her parents involvement in that” he says. “I do believe she will have been conditioned but I also believe that can be broken, seeing her daughter and her mate once more could be what’s needed for that to happen. I’m not saying let’s hang around and wait but there are no leads on your mum, she is a ghost in this. Which is exactly what your grandparents have designed.”
“You’re right” I say quietly. “We need to find the hunters.”
“The meeting that is scheduled is the perfect time, I don’t suggest attacking however. I suggest we scout it out and follow them from there, we can find their base, see the routes they take and more” he says with confidence. “My only concern is they will know the traitors have been found, it could be a trap because of that. Although from the sounds of it none of the traitors were told about the meeting otherwise Elder Martin would have told you by now so I believe there is a strong possibility this is a genuine meeting.”
“Things are amping up now” I say leaning forward with anticipation.
“They are” Alex agrees. “Once we know more on Monday I think it’s best to react quickly and not give them time to act.”
“Definitely, we go to them instead of them coming to us” Nova says.
“Exactly” Alex agrees. “I do have one suggestion though, if it is a genuine hunters meeting on Monday then we leave them a gift.”
“A gift?” I ask already having a feeling I know what he’s going to say.
