Alpha King pov
Sigh... I don't know how they will take this news, but I've got no choice. I must give Tharn a chance to be next in line. I love Thorn, he is my first baby. He took my soul since the first time I heard his heartbeat. I would die for him... But alas, this kid is just not normal. I fear sometimes he came into this world without a soul.
"Right... Well my boys as you can imagine I wanted to talk to you both about which of you will be taking my place once I step down... I need some alone time with your mother hehe"
"All right father, get to the point. We do not need to know about you and mother... I don't even know why we are here, I AM NEXT IN LINE! It is OUR ways!"
"Shut the fuck up Thorn!" The King Barked. "Last time I checked I was King. I DECIDE! And your behavior right now is not making a great case for your cause..."
After taking a deep breath to calm down, he continues.
I was blessed with two sons, with two alphas. Not many fathers can say that. I am very proud of... both... of you. But like I've told you before, the order of your birth is not a prerequisite of you being next in line."
A low growl escaped Thorn's chest.
Now I know this boy is not growling at me right now. 👀 Anyway...
"..... Tharn... In the eyes of our people you are second in line. I've observed you for years now with them, and they truly love and admire you.... YOU are my first choice... "
A moment of tense silence went through the room. Everyone was waiting for Thorn to react. But he just sat there with that look in his eyes waiting. That same look that made me choose Tharn in the first place. The look of a killer without remorse.
Don't get me wrong, as the Alpha King, I've had to kill. But only when I absolutely had to. Never once did I enjoy it.
The King continues:
"Um...however, as Thorn stated, it is not our way to skip the first born... But Tharn If you can find your mate I know for a fact the pack will be more than willing to accept you... (Thorn is still unusually quiet)... So, that being said I am giving you a year to find her. If you still can't, then the Throne goes to Thorn."After that was said Thorn ran out the room kicking chairs out of his way and slamming the doors behind him.
I forgot to order him not to hurt Tharn... He wouldn't... Right ?... It's his brother after all.
*End of Flashback *
—--------------------------------------------------------——
He forgot how long he has been in the shower thinking of that day when his father gave him a year to find his mate.
He turns off the water, opens the glass shower door, wrap a towel around his waist and starts drying his hair with another.
"Tul... We only got one month left"
"I know Tharn, what should we do? "
"Maybe we should do the one thing I never wanted to do..."
"Wait... Are you sure Tharn? That would mean..."
"Yes... I know you don't like it, but we have to think of our people."
Tul started whimpering, and Tharn could feel him pacing back and forth in his mind. He decides to block Tul for now. He couldn't take it. He has his own whimpering to do after all he has just decided to give up on finding his mate, and to just pick an Omega, mark him and let the bond from that do its job. Just thinking about it made his heart ache...
"Oh my darling where are you?... I am so sorry I've failed you."
His legs suddenly lost their strength, he falls to his knees on the bathroom floor, clenching his chest, digging his nails onto his skin, crying his heart out, grieving for the love he will never get to have and craves for.
