Do You Believe in Destiny?

~ Chapter 4 ~

King Xenith POV

After I took a run out in the Silver Star Pack's territory, it was already evening and I had to go back to their pack house.

"Hey Xenith what happened back there and where were you?", my Beta and best friend Brad asked.

"When? And I just took a run", I said frustratedly, already feeling a headache coming on just thinking about the situation.

"What happened when I left?", He said acting curious like always.

"Why do you ask so many questions?", I asked trying to change the subject.

"You're not going to get out of this Xenith.", Brad said sternly.

"Alright alright alright curious George. Have you ever heard the phrase curiosity killed the cat?", I replied knowing that I wasn't going to get out of this one.

"Good thing I'm not a cat right?", he yelled. Brad was the only one that could yell at me like that. We both grew up together and he knows me inside and out so there was no use for any more of my excuses.

"Fine I guess I can tell you.", I breathed out.

"Come on we're not getting any younger here dude!", he said clearly irritated.

"So by the time you took that kid to Alpha Cole's dungeon I was already smelling my mate's scent...", I explained.

"That's great man!", Brad exclaimed.

"But it was vague and faint and I couldn't locate or find where it was leading to, it was like she was just there then disappeared.", I spat irritably. "If it wasn't for my vampire side, not even a werewolf could have smelled it. It seemed like her wolf was dying or wasn't present."

"Don't worry dude at least you know that she's in this pack and uh...umm...", Brad said speaking stuttering and I hate when people hesitate thinking that they can spare my feelings.

"Say it!", I spat angrily.

"Umm..... I just hope she doesn't end up like Aubrey, sorry Alpha.", he said shaking with fear.

I lost it.

Even though Brad was my best friend, it angered me to a whole new level when people talked about Aubrey. She was my first mate and no one dared to speak about her in my presence.

Red clouded my vision as my wolf was about to shift. Even though he's playful he knows when to be serious.

"Shut the fuck up Brad. Just shut the fuck up. I don't really care if you're my best friend or not, you don't have the right to speak or her in my presence! Just get your ass out of my room before me, my wolf, and my vampire looses it.", I spoke demonically.

Immediately after those words came out of my mouth Brad fled out of my room to leave me, my wolf, and my vampire to calm down in silence.

Aubrey. She was my first mate. The day I discovered her was the happiest day of my damn life. I was 17 at the time and she had just turned 16, finally shifting and discovering her wolf. All was going well until she was kidnapped. I only knew her for a day. Damn. I was so fucked over when I discovered she was missing. When she disappeared I did some investigation for 5 days straight without any sleep but when I slept it over I finally knew who took her. Nathan. He was cursed with immortality because he decided to mess with the fates that the Moon Goddess had created for us because of his obsession for power. He wanted me for my power and strength ever since I was born.

You see I come from a very crazy and complicated family tree. Nathan is my great great grandfather. My great great grandmother (from my mom's side) comes from the family of the first vampires and since Nathan wanted power he had an affair with her and my great grandmother was born. The immortality and power didn't reach any females, so after my great grandmother gave birth to my grandmother than to my mother, Nathan was still in the shadows lurking for when a male (a.k.a me) to be born.
