It's been two years since I've last seen her and smelled her scent from the source. Not just from her hair on the hairpin. I keep the hairpin in the pocket of my suit jacket. It is located in the chest pocket above my heart. Even though I don't actually know where she is, the pin calms my wolf down and allows me to pull it together. 'Thank the moon goddess for the hair clip; without it, my kingdom would probably be in shreds.My Queen, Amica mea, where are you?'
I sigh and sit on my throne and rest my chin on my left palm. The ball is in two weeks; if she doesn't come, I'm doomed to marry the Delta. The question that has haunted me for the past two years is, why did she run? We looked at each other; her beautiful chocolate eyes met my sky blue ones, then she ran. 'Why, my Queen, why have you left me?'
'Okay, I need to stop; I sound stupid and sappy.' I sit up as my Beta Jonathan and his mate walk in holding hands. "My king, are you excited for the ball?" My betta asks, causing me to growl playfully. "You know I hate being called that. by you most of all people," I said, causing him to laugh. "I know Amar. I love ruffling your tail." He says, causing the three of us to laugh.
'Mate.....' my wolf whimpers out, causing me to sigh. 'Dude, I know you're upset but shut up! I don't like being sappy! I'm not into that!' Striker growls in return but shuts up.
"So what color are the lady's wearing ?" Lily asked, causing me to look at her. "Blue, I didn't say a specific shade; I know most of them will wear royal blue anyway. I hope she won't; I want her to stand out." I said, causing them to nod.
"I need to go to a fitting for my suit. I'll be back later," I say as I get up for my throne and leave the room.
The door slams behind me. I know that I shouldn't let my anger out on them, but I can't help it when the love of my life is who knows where. Taking out the hairpiece, I calm myself down. Striker sighs in content when he smells her scent too. Holding the clip in my hand, I marvel at the Swarovski crystals and royal blue sapphires' details. It's magnificent, and I know she is too. It wasn't until then that I realized that one of the diamonds had fallen off, leaving behind the hairpin's backing. I took a look closer, and my jaw dropped. How come I have never noticed it before. Engraved on the backing of the hairpin was the insignia of the Black Moon Pack.
I look up and realize that I am at the threshold of the room where I am supposed to be getting my fitting done. I quickly turn back on my heels and head towards my office.
'The fitting can wait,' I thought.
With an intense growl rising from my throat, I quickly get the maids and servicemen to step out of my way. I finally have a lead on my mate, and I'm not letting their questions for the ball hold me up. My beta sees me storming through my castle, and I can tell that he is worried for me, but I have no time to catch him up. I slam open the doors of my office and head straight for the phone. I dial the Black Moon Pack's Alpha.
"Hello, this is Alpha Diavolo speaking; who is calling?"
"This is your King speaking." I hear him cough as if he's spitting out a drink. "Your majesty, what can I do for you?" I look at the pin. "I want to know about the ladies you brought with you, and don't lie to me; my guards saw you and your Beta with females." He sighs. "The women I brought were my chosen mate and my Beta's mate." I nod.
"Sir, if I may ask, what is this about?" I sit in my chair. "The pin that was in my mate's hair that night was made in your pack." He sighs. "Sire, we have a hairpin making company on my pack land; the name of the pack is on the backing of each diamond for authenticity. I'm sorry, but that could belong to any female that went." I sigh. "Ok, thanks for your time." I hang up with a stressed sigh and lean back in my chair with my pointer finger on top of my chin bent and thumb under, in a thinking position.
'Where is she?!' I let out a growl of frustration. I get up and walk to my window. My other arm around my midsection and my hand still on my chin. 'I hate waiting. Why did she run? Why was she scared of me? Why? Why? Why? Why?!' I punch the wall denting the wolf-proof wall, and scrape my hand, making it bleed. My Beta leaves, closing the door behind him, knowing I want to be alone when I'm like this. I watch as my warriors train in the grounds on the side of the castle. The door to my office is opened, and I see my sister Lucy, holding my baby sister, Jules.
Jules turns a year in a month. The little smart butt knows how to make me smile no matter what. Lucy hands me Jules, and I instantly calm down and kiss her forehead. Jules giggles and touches my nose. I make a honking noise, and she giggles. I kiss her hand and nuzzle my nose against her cheek. She hugs my neck and curls into me with a yawn. I look at the time and see it's twelve-thirty in the afternoon. Naptime. I go and sit in my office chair, and she falls asleep on me. My sister holds her hand out to take her, but I shake my head no.
'I need to be with my sister; she helps me feel better and less crazy. I love my sister, and so does my wolf. My father died halfway through my mom's pregnancy last year. When my sister was born, my brother/father instincts kicked in, and I've helped raise her. I don't know if I would have made it through not having my mate without her. I wouldn't trade my sisters for the world. I hope my mate feels the same way.'
