New title please read!!

You will meet a new title called the Solar, in my book only one with Alpha blood can take over as alpha, leaving the mate as the counter part. If the Alpha is a man, naturally his mate will be the Luna. If an Alpha family gives birth to a daughter first, which is very rare in this case, she will become the alpha her mate wil be known as a Solar, similar to the Luna title only in the male version.

"Now for the other matter on our agenda, Alpha Black." With my name being called I looked up from my notes. "Alpha Bradford, what is your issue at hand?" Lucy sits quietly next to him and plays with her fingers. She really looks uncomfortable and makes me wonder why her father would request her being in this meeting. "My daughter Lucy, has not found her mate yet and she is now 22, I am ready to step down as Alpha, but I need her to be mated." Lucy looks shocked to say the least. "But father.." "Hush dear!" She looks at the ground again. "As it would have it, I would like you to be mated to her since you have also have not found your mate. This collision can only benefit both packs. The counsel already approved my request." A growl escapes me, "You dare to request your daughter's hand in marriage to me with the counsel without consulting me!" Lucy's eyes grew wide as I raise my voice and the other Alphas begin to feel uncomfortable. They do not want to cross me and are wise to do so. "Alpha Black, with all respect, you know that the counsel will push for a marriage, who better than an Alphas daughter. You will gain land and pack members." I quietly examine Lucy while the wheels in my head are turning to formulate a plan. Her eyes met mine for a brief moment before she looked to the ground again and I knew what my plan was going to be. "Very well I will consider, but I do wish to speak to Lucy before I agree to anything." Everyone looks shocked since I've been battling the counsel for years to not arrange a marriage and suddenly now I agree. "Very well Ethan." Lucy looks like she is going to cry and I feel sorry for her. The meeting continues and my mind wonders off to my beautiful Madeline, she has been complaining about headaches and it stresses me out, werewolves don't normally get headaches.

The meeting is finally over and I walk to Lucy. "Do you have time now to go on a date with me?" She looks taken back by my bold request, but she nodds. "Alpha Bradford, I will we taking your daughter now." He nods and he walks away, but not before whispering something in Lucy's ear. The look of fear is plastered on her face and I wonder what he possibly could've said to her. It also amazes me how quiet she is when she was all chatty before the meeting." Well, are you coming?" I look back at her while I walk and she gets next to me in a hurry.
We walk to my car, silently, and I open the door for her and she gets in. Our drive was also silent you could cut the tention with a knife, deciding to put on the radio just to ease up. I could see from the corner of my eye that she is silently singing the words and it makes me smile, my plan will work out if my suspicion about her is correct.

We stop at one of my restaurants and the waiter immediately gave us a private room. Lucy really looks nervous and she refuse to look me in the eyes. "Lucy look at me."

Lucy

I meet his eyes, his eyes are truly beautiful it's almost as if you are looking in a maze. If you are not careful you can get lost in them. "I know you have met your mate." How could he have know? He gives me a smirk, "I know that look, it is very familiar to me there is no point in hiding it from me." He must be talking about how his friends found their mates.
"Because I have found mine to you see." Now I am more confused than ever.
Why would he hide her?
Is there something wrong with her?
Is he not happy with her ranking?
Is that why he wants me?
He laughs at me while a waiter gives us drinks. "I can see your mind going crazy, so ask away, but for each question I can ask you one on return deal?"
Accepting his offer I ask my question, "Why have you not told anyone that you found her?" He takes a deap breath before he answers. "I found her on the edge of my border few years ago, but there was a huge complication." He pauses while having his drink, he smiles and you could see that he loves her. "She, at the time I met her, was five." I choke on my own drink as he helps me contain myself. "Five!" He nodds and continues, "Her age shocked me to, I mean I was 18 at the time so imagine my surprise. Me and her mother agreed that she will remain a secret from everyone including the counsel so that she will have a normal life. Only my beta, gamma and delta and Madeline's personal guard knows about it and now you." More questions pop into my head but he stops me," Now my turn Lucy, why are you hiding your mate?" I think about my mate and it makes me smile.
"He is an omega, I do not care that he is, I want him and no one else. When I asked my dad what he would do if my mate was of lower ranking in my pack he said he will force him to reject me. I can't afford to lose Logan , I love him." I can feel the tears falling of my face and Ethan gives me tissues to clean myself up. He stares at me while I compose myself,"Lucy, the reason I agreed is because I have a proposition for you." Curiosity killed the cat so I got curious, "I'm listening."
