The Royal Alpha

Chapter 1: Packing and Unpacking!

SIERRA

"I do not want to go to this training academy mother. It's all the way from our pack to the neutral territory which is a 2 day trip in the wolf form." I argue, hoping that they won't send me away.

Every werewolf at the age of 20 has to leave their pack to go and train under the 5 main elders of the werewolf community in Recrania. But I do not want to leave my pack.

"You should go and complete this training. You do not need to attend the warrior training. Just go to the academy. They will evaluate you in the first week and then advice you if you can learn the basic fighting skills or if you need to attend the warrior course," says my mother.

She just wants me to go out of this pack and explore different places, get trained thoroughly to win the beta position for our pack.

You see, my father is a beta of the pack but that does not mean that the title is going to be handed over to me on a golden plate.

No, I have to participate in a Beta Competition where all the interested pack members participate and fight to prove their physical ability to be the Alpha's second in command. Then the selected candidates also undergo an interview where his mental ability and decision-making ability is tested. This entire fiasco is what a person has to go through before attaining the title of the Beta of the pack.

But I do not want to be the Beta. I have my mate, the Alpha's son, and in no way am I going to handle both the beta and the Luna position. I don't understand why my parents insist for me to attend this so-called training.

"You do not really know whether Alpha Aztec is your mate. Just because you both like each other and have been fooling around that does not mean that he is your mate, Sierra," my mother says effectively ruining my thoughts of Aztec.

"But mom, I know Aztec is my mate. He has not yet had his 21st birthday so we just need to wait till that day so that he can officially claim me as his mate," I reply back. I just want my parents to understand this. Even Aztec's parents do not think that we are mates.

"Sierra, you are turning into a spoiled brat. I never thought you would be so blinded with Aztec's looks and fake behavior. He has been gone for the training since a year. Never even once has he tried to contact you. I do not understand why you are so hung up on that boy," scolds my mother.

"Aztec is my mate and you will see it the day he returns on his 21st birthday which is next month. He must be busy with the training. It's a 3 year training for Alphas and a one year training for a normal wolf. I want to be here if Aztec comes to meet me on his 21st birthday. I'll be claimed as his mate and then we can start with our Alpha training together," I shout the last words angrily and start marching towards the door. I need some fresh air to escape all this negativity about Aztec being my mate.

Hearing the commotion, my father makes his entrance with a whiskey in his right hand and a document in his left hand.

I had always been a daddy's girl but ever since he has known about Aztec being my boyfriend, he has been distant from me. A cold shoulder treatment.

"What's going on here, sweetheart?"

"Our daughter's adamant behavior has started grating on my nerves now, Henry. I'm trying to explain to her the seriousness of the training for young wolves, but she as usual just wants to stay here and pretend to be the damsel in distress for the future Alpha of our pack." My mother sneers as she walks past me and stands beside my father.

They have always been my ideal mated couple. I want to have a similar bond with Aztec. I just hope that these negative opinions about Aztec and me doesn't jinx my mating with him.
