Phoenix the Rising Alpha

20

Roswell's POV:

Phoenix and I are out snacks quietly, but quickly. I think he was just as excited as I was wanting to talk to his mom, maybe even more so than I was.

From what my parents have told me about the BlackStone Alpha duo, they are strong, protective and loving. They will do anything for their pup's, but Phoenix is the only one close to his mother that Luna Larry can shift into some times.

It amazes me the more I learn about my mate and his family, including the Royal Vampires, what amazed me the most is when my parents allowed the King and Queen of the Vampires along with their son's here in the Academy without warning any of the werewolves that attend the Academy. Not surprisingly being the King and Queen of the Vampires they have just as much pull in the supernatural world as my parents and even Phoenix parents do, that's most likely why my parents didn't announce that the King and Queen of the Vampires were going to visit.

"What are you thinking"? I heard Phoenix ask me. At first I was confused why he asked me, but then I remembered him telling me that he is trying his hardest not to invade my thoughts. I smiled up at him and just shook my head.

'Nothing important'. I told him honestly. I sighed and wrapped him tightly in my arms, laid my head on his shoulder and just held him as he continued to eat his snacks.

"If it's not important then why did you sigh"? He asked me. I sighed again and decided to tell him. To me it's not important but it might be to him.

'I was just thinking about your family and how even my parents respect them'. I told him. I grew up as the Prince of the werewolves so being respected was a must for those that came and went, but that was just because I am royalty. Phoenix parents as far as I know are not royalty, yet the receive the respect as though they are.

"My parents are special, I cannot tell you how special until I get the okay for both my parents". "As you know my father is very protective of his pup's". "Well when it comes to my dad and his true identity (more so because he is my father's true mate though) my father's protection is on a whole other level". He explained to me taking a deep breath before he finished. "So I will have to get both their permission before I am able to share anything that important with you". "And yes I know it bothers you that I cannot tell you even though we are mate's, but it is because this is about my dad, not me". "I hope you can understand that". He told me, I can tell he was feeling a little guilty, but in truth like he told me, it is not for him to say anything about his parents and why every supernatural creature including the Royal King's and Queen's show his parents respect without them giving him permission to do so. I sighed and wrapped my arms around Phoenix, squeezing him tightly, kissing the top of his head.

Phoenix POV:
I hate that I have to keep secrets especially from my mate, but when we were pup's Beast, my father's wolf told us that the Moon Goddess had warned him to keep my father, dad and his pup's safe from everyone including those closest to us. My father said he wasn't sure if all the threats have passed, so until we do we keep almost everything about us a secret.

'Does Nezm know'? Roswell asked me, causing me to stiffen in his arms. How am I to tell my mate that yes my other mate knows but not because we had sat down and told him and his brother, but because Uncle Jackson and Uncle Egon was there when my parents were attacked and the old supernatural council tried to get rid of my dad.

'Phoenix what is wrong'? I heard my dad through our link. I sighed thanking the Moon Goddess for this link she helped create for our kind.

"I'm kinda freaking out". "Roswell wants to know about our family". "And because I hadn't given him anything except telling him I have to get permission from you and father first, he asked if Nezm knows". I explained sighing heavily afterwards.

'Tell him we will talk later on and he can ask all the questions he wants'. My dad said causing me to smile.

"Okay dad I'll tell him". I said closing our link.

I pulled away from Roswell so I can look him in the eye and told him what my dad just said.

"My dad said when we video chat tonight, you can ask him all the questions you want". I said smiling at him.

'Cool'. Roswell said causing me to chuckle. It seemed so important to him just a few minutes ago, but now that my dad said he can ask all the questions he wants, it seems it's not as important to him as it was before.

'When are we video chatting your parents'? Roswell asked. I shrugged my shoulders not really knowing when.

"I don't know, but I'm sure my dad will link me when he and my father are done with work for the day, (which should be pretty soon actually), and let me know their ready". I told him.

"Let's finish eating our snack and clean up, that way all's we have to do tonight is cuddle and watch a movie after we talk to my parents". I told him getting off the bed and picking up our empty wrappers.

'Are we changing into our night clothes'? Roswell asked with a hint of desire in his voice. A shiver ran down my spine.

"If you want". I was able to whisper out. The more time we spend together the harder it is to avoid being turned on by him. The very thought of us cuddling makes it difficult for me to concentrate on whatever movie we picked out to watch.

'You don't want to watch me change'? Roswell said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. I growl lightly, walking towards the garbage can to toss the trash in.

"Hurry up". I told him, chuckling.

"Moon Goddess, please give me the strength". I prayed to her as I sat back down on the bed and waited for Roswell to finish changing.
