The Last Alpha

chapter SIX

Junkyu POV

I watched the japanese pack silently during our travel to the airport and noticed that despite being inside the car everyone was tense. They are on alert and each of their senses are heightened and yet they have not let any of their scents nor any aura of their wolves out.

"As if, they are being hunted." Hyul whispered inside my head as he opened his drowsy left eyes and closed it back. I stared at my mate seating just next to me, patiently waiting for the plane to take off. And as soon as the plane hovered in the air, their guard collapsed as if the danger has passed.

The moment they let their guards down, everyone felt it -- the pressure of a dominator, the presence of a powerful alpha. Even I, who has tolerance to his pressure as his mate, can feel that thick pressure of sheer strength. It was nothing like the one he released the other day to threathen Raesung, it was as if he is claiming back his dominance.

The japanese pack shivered, their fangs showing and their wolves taking hold. The plane suffocated with power as soon as it took off as if restrictions were released.

Breathe, Luna. Mahiro pointed out inside the pack link. I let out a exhaled a deep breath as I realized that I momentarily forgot how to breathe due to the pressure. It took roughly two minutes for the power to settle down and disappear as if that monstrous display was nothing but an illusion.

Even without knowing the reason, I know that something that limited the japanese pack before had broken down especially with my mate whose eyes are still closed as he concentrated on controlling his own power.

Yedam, do you know a way to limit a pack's power? Curiousity took hold of me as I asked our knowledgeable pack doctor on our pack link.

"Yes. However, it usually is a painful process for the alpha. The stronger the pack, the stronger the pain. Why do you ask?" Yedam replied making me flinch on my seat and stare at my mate whose eyes are still close. I could feel Hyul's worry and rage bubbling and I rushed to calm him.

Hyul, not now. Control your self. Hyul growled lightly inside my mind as he fought his own instinct. If there was something Hyul would be best then it would be his self-control.

"Investigate this" Hyul let out an air of frustration as he retreated back to the deeps of my consciousness after I agreed to his demands. Well, even without him saying I was already planning doing that.

"Hyung?" Yedam asked on the pack link making me snap from my thoughts. "Nothing to worry about, Dammie. I'll explain it later once we arrive"

Mashiho's POV

As soon as the plane took off, Mahiro immediately dispelled the restrictions placed on the pack and the everyone regained their original strength. Afterall, we dont need to fear being hunted as soon as we let out our scent anymore.

Alpha, can you lessen the pressure? Our Luna is unable to breathe. Haruto asked in our pack link which Junkyu is currently is blocked out.

Even if you tell me so, I am currently doing my best controlling my strength already. It should take a minute or two for me to master retracting it. I answered as I focused on trying to control and retract the pressure I am currently releasing.

"Breathe, Luna." Mahiro temporarily opened the link to my mate to ease him and I am thankful for that. As of right now, I don't have the leisure to tend to my mate as I am on the process of controlling my recently released abilities. My brilliant miko, Mahiro, discreetly blocked my innocent and pure mate from the pack link again.

"Please master the control of your powers before we land, Mashiho-sama. We don't want the Korean government know that they are welcoming a foreign wolf god in their country" My sangre, Noa, reminded knowing that my focus is getting weaker. I unconciously clicked my tongue and brought my focus on the task at hand.

Pathetic. Let me control it for you. Ginya sighed as he pulled the rampaging power to his conciousness and skillfully calmed them down. With a growl, my wolf who is the last of his kin, tamed the previously berserking strength and passed the control back to me. I sighed at my own powerlessness.

I'll learn to control it on my own. Thanks, Gin. My wolf nodded his head lightly before retreating back to the deepest part of my consciousness again.

Since that's done, shall we discuss how we should proceed from here? As I approached the most pressing topic, I can feel the tense attention my pack was giving me.

It depends on your wish, Alpha. My beta, Haruto, approached the topic carefully. Do you wish to establish a new domain on the place they prepared for us and slowly have our brethren join us or would you like to recover or lands and raised a war?

Either case, both choices would lead to a bloodbath. It would be a question of which war we fight for. Kotaro, our head warrior and the one currently waiting for us in Korea, joined the conversation.

We should take consideration of the status of our pack warriors' mates. Just our Luna alone is a beta of another established and renowned pack. Our beta has his mate from the strongest pack of the nation we are headed to. Noa voiced out his opinion. He usually is quiet and reserve but when it comes to the welfare of the pack he gets quite passionate.

You forgot that your mate is the Alpha of my mate's pack. Haruto reminded our sangre of the fact that he wanted to forget. For the serious and dedicated protector, a mate can only be a point of weakness against him. However, he also knows that he cannot reject the bond or else he would betray the moon goddess.

It is better to avoid war against the korean packs where mates of our pack members originates. It would not end well. Yoshi, our pack doctor, pitched in his opinion. How about proposing a temporary alliance?

Kotaro-san, you've been in their lands for a long time now. What do you think of the Alpha Raesung and Alpha Byounggon? Keita asked lightly. When it comes to information, Keita definitely would have not missed anything. As the tracker of the pack, he had built a vast and well-hidden information network. However, what he is asking for right now would be the opinion of our head warrior who had lived in the land surrounded by the domains of the packs in concern.

Loyal, serious and trustworthy. Well, they are a very effective leader I must say. One is as sturdy as a tree while the other as deep as the sea. I wish our Alpha would learn prudence from them and stop being reckless. Kotaro answered without forgetting to voice his complaints lightly.

Shall I add that to my prayers to the mood goddess? Mahiro teased while I decided to ignore the complaint completely.

Don't waste your time praying for the impossible. Prudence is the last thing our Alpha would possess. Asahi finally joined the conversation to talk badly about me. As expected of our ever silent sadist.

In any case, let's talk about this at a latet time. As of the moment, we've arrived. Haruto dismissed the conversation as he announced that we landed on our destination. I opened my eyes and immediately noticed my mate staring at me with a concerned look on his beautiful face.

Good Luck for later, Luna. My pack members cheered my confused mate after they stared at me silently. They all wear a teasing grin on their faces. You wouldn't believe that I just met them recently with the way they are acting. How come they know what my plans are?

My mate stared at me with confusion obviously written on his face. With his expressive round eyes, he asked "What are they talking about?"

I grinned as I raised my hand and took hold of his nape. With my pointing finger, I traced the line connecting the back of his head and his spine and replied, "That something would be placed here later."

Picking up the nuance of my words and actions, my mate blushed furiously. How cute. I can't wait until we arrived at the hotel and be alone with him. Ginya let out a soft whimper in agreement. But first, let's get off the plane.
