The Lycan's Mate

Chapter 9

Pandora's P.O.V.

Walking to my new truck I bought the day before I smiled. I finally felt that things were settling down since my pack moved over here. I also felt like an actual alpha now too. We did my ceremony for becoming an alpha yesterday and I felt power come into me like water.

Oh. Forgot to explain.

Alpha's are usually born alpha's but other wolves can become alpha's if they meet certain criteria. The same is also said for others in power like Beta and Gamma. My father had 7 children ( 5 of which weren't adopted) and some of us have the potential of being alpha. But as tradition goes, packs are usually passed down to your eldest. Which of course was usually a male.

My father thought it unfair. He told me once that why should only one of his kids have a pack when we're all so talented and capable. So he asked all of us except Shawn if we wanted to be an alpha of our own pack. The others were too young so he promised to ask when they turned 16. I was old enough and thought that I wanted to try and become who my father said I can be.

So I said yes.

That day I started training and learning how to become an Alpha. At the age of 10 mind you. You're all probably wondering why we're all so worried about succession and getting to be alphas. It's pretty simple. We don't live forever like the Lycans(and vamps) and my dad thought it important to experience everything before we eventually die or get killed. Naturally, every wolf has heard of Lycans. They were a legend. No one has seen any for over a century so we thought it to be fake or that they died off. Legends say they were immortal but I tend not to think about that possibility.

Anyway, when I finished putting my luggage in the truck, Charlotte called out to me.

"Alpha!"

I turned around when she stopped in front of me. "Yes?"

She fidgeted for a little then looked straight into my eyes.

"I decided to stay here but can you give him this letter for me Alpha?" She said holding the letter out to me.

"Sure but is there any particular reason why you want me to be the one to give it instead of Lucas?"

She nodded. I smiled and took the letter from her hands. "Leave it to me Charlotte." She smiled slightly.

"Have a good trip." She said as she walked away.

Once we arrived at the hotel I told them to meet me in the lobby in an hour. The first day was the dress up day(ugh) so Chloe picked out a dress for me. I didn't look at it until I reached my room. When I pulled out the dress I loved it immediately. I'm not fond of dresses but this one seemed to suit me just fine. [Look at the picture above]

An hour and a half later I was in my dress still waiting for Chloe and Lucas when they come running towards me. I looked at them and then laughed.

"What's so funny?" says the flushed Chloe. I smirked and looked the other way.

"Did you guys have a nice uh sleep?"

Chloe flushed even more while Lucas starts looking away with a smirk of his own and says, "Sure did Alpha."

I burst out laughing while Chloe starts hitting him on the arm. After calming down I said," Fix your 'bed' head, Chloe and Lucas, fix your tie. We're going in."

After complying with my orders they followed me into the meeting room.

Everyone stared at us while I walked calmly straight up to my father and brother. My father nods his head slightly.

"Welcome, Alpha Pandora."
