CAROLINE POV
I woke up first.
I gaze at him as he slept, lightly snoring with his arms around me. A smile creeping on my lips at the thought of yesterday. It was truly wonderful. I lightly kissed his jawline and he shudders while sleeping. I like what my touch does and he always has the same impact on me too.
Slowly, unwrapping his arms from around me, I got up and decided to make breakfast for us.
As I cooked the eggs, the doorbell rang. It was still early. I went to open the door and saw Claude through the glass. He said bluntly"The Alpha King has requested to see you alone and he has strictly ordered to meet you right away. I'll be waiting for you in the woods" Before I could say anything, he just left.
I went back to the kitchen and made breakfast for Jaxon, setting the plate and warming the fresh pot of coffee in the coffee maker, leaving the plate on the island and the coffee mug too. I changed into a pair of jeans and a sweater because it was cold outside.
Before I walked out, I lightly kissed his cheek and left.

I walked for a good five minutes from the cabin to the woods and saw Claude waiting for me with three warriors behind him.
A lot of guards for little old me, that's suspicious.
I asked, "Why does he wanna see me?" Claude replied, "The King did not say."
Being the older brother, Claude never called Kane by his real name. Mostly called him Alpha King, King, Alpha, my liege. Which was weird for some reason. He didn't even let the name of his little brother roll out of his tongue at all.
I walked beside Claude and I catch him watching me every time, and he doesn't even try to hide that fact and I was not gonna back down either. I think it was the fact that I was walking side by side with him. Jaxon did tell me that Alphas and Betas, hold the power in their hands. And being a male werewolf, they hated women beside them.
I asked"So... Claude... Are you Kane's brother?"
Dumb question, I know. But I wanted to get in his head somehow. He held his hands behind his back and said without looking at me"Yes, I'm the King's brother."
See, again King.
I again asked, "So are you a beta first or a brother?" He looked at me in confusion but then answered"I'm the beta first." Rank is superior to family.
I didn't mean to even ask him another question when he instantly stood in front of me, stopping me in my tracks. I looked up at him, in his eyes as he looks down at me. We were standing close but I know that he did that on purpose to try and intimidate me. He warned "You can't use your psycho mind tricks on me, Dr. Quinn. You practiced them on humans... not wolves." I asked a simple "Well, aren't you part human, Beta Claude? Underneath that human skin, you have a heart same as mine as well as a brain. What makes us different?" He replies "Easy. You don't contain the spirit of a wolf."
