My Mate From Another World

Kaiser

Elder Jass accompanied Adeline and me along with our convoy in the Dark Blood Pack. After my father saved that girl, former Alpha Darius left the council as well, and none of the Pack members remembered to replace him, so they had no representative in the headquarters.

The drive was a bit long, so I was thankful that we left HQ early. It was noon when we arrived at the Dark Blood Pack, and they were very welcoming, contrary to what I had expected. “Welcome, Alpha Kaiser, Elder Jass,” said the man with an alpha aura. “I am Alpha Dominic, and welcome to the Dark Blood Pack,” he continued.

I nodded at him and smiled, appreciating his warm welcome, before offering him my hand for a shake, which he took gratefully. “Thank you, Alpha Dominic,” I replied and introduced my mate.

The Alpha looked at Adeline as if trying to recognize her, but just like what Elder Jass said, her daughter’s makeup artist friend was really good. I couldn’t even recognize her after the transformation. “She somehow looks familiar.” Alpha Dominic said, “Anyway, this is my beta, Ricci, and my gamma, Tyler.”

“No Luna yet?’ Adeline asked.

“Yes. But I’m still waiting for her.” Alpha Dominic replied,

“She’ll come,” my mate replied casually.

“Yeah, I hope it’s soon.” the Alpha said before they led us inside the packhouse.

The Dark Blood Pack looks isolated, but I noticed they are hospitable. They also looked excited when they welcomed us. I think the Alpha was doing an excellent job since his pack members also looked respectful.

Their pack house was a two-story building and small compared to others. Because the furniture looks expensive, they don’t look lacking in terms of financial needs, so I wonder why the Alpha didn’t improve it.

There were omegas who were busy cleaning, and I’m sure there were some who were in the kitchen as well. “Alpha Kaiser, this way, please.” Alpha Dominic said and started walking up the stairs. Elder Jass, Adeline, and I followed him and the others. “The first floor was for common use. Anyone in the Pack can stay there and use everything there. The second floor is for my office, meeting room, and our quarters.” he continued, pointing at his beta and gamma. So they were living together as well.

There is also a living room on the second floor, which I think they use when they feel like spending time together. He and his gamma and beta stay there for a casual conversation. We passed by three doors before we stopped at the fourth one, and the gamma opened the door for us.

“Please have a seat,” Alpha Dominic said. “This is my office, and maybe you’ll think it’s a bit small compared to others. But this is all I need since I only talk to my beta and gamma here, and most of the time, I am alone with paperwork and guard reports.”

“I understand that, Alpha,” I replied, smiling.

“For a bigger meeting, we use the room next door since we can fit here, so I decided to conduct our discussion here. I hope it’s okay with you.”

“It doesn’t feel congested, so it’s fine,” Adeline replied.

“Discussing something we came here for in a small room is perfect; I didn’t want anyone to hear anything about it,” I added.

“Whatever we talk about here will remain in the four corners of this room.” Alpha Dominic assured us. Then I started asking him about the girl that Dad saved.

“After her father died, her entire family left the pack,” he started. “The former Alpha, who happens to be my father, didn’t want that, but they insisted. He even warned them about the danger they might face since they would become rogues, but they still left.”

“Do you know why they decided to do that?” Elder Jass asked.

“Elder Darius was old, and the girl will pass as his grandfather if you look at them. You will never think that they were father and daughter. But because they are pack members, we know that they are. But according to their family, they heard rumors around the pack that they were ridiculed, saying Olivia is not Elder Darius’s daughter.”

“Is it true?” Adeline asked curiously.

“Because of what they said, Dad decided to let them go. But still, as an alpha, he wanted to know the truth. He didn’t want any pack members to bully each other. It took long before he discovered that Olivia was his granddaughter.”

“Where are their family now?” I asked.

“No one knows. But I remember Dad asked someone to find them and persuade them to return to the pack. The last report he received was that the family met a certain man, and Olivia came to that man.”

“That’s all?” I asked again.

“The warrior who approached them was thrown out of the house they were living in, so Dad just let them. And if you want to know whether they were still in the same house, I don’t think you’d find them there now. My first and last visit to them was when I became Alpha. Like my father, I also want to bring them back here, but they are no longer there, and I don’t have any news about them or their whereabouts either.” I sighed and looked at my mate. We cannot determine whether that woman and the one in our dungeon are the same.

“Thank you for letting us know,” I replied. “I will also take this chance to ask you: Why don’t you send someone from your pack as a representative in the werewolf council?”

“I didn’t know that we are required to do so. Though before my Dad died, he told me to get help from the council if there was anything we needed.” He replied,

“And you didn’t need anything ever since?” Adeline asked curiously. Alpha Dominic and his beta and gamma looked at each other.

“We did,” Beta Ricci answered. “We sent a request when rogues threatened our pack.” I looked at Elder Jass, who seemed as confused as I was.

“I never heard anything about them requesting anything,” he said defensively. “Did you go to HQ yourself?” he asked the beta.

“Yes, with Gamma, Tyler, and the guard told us that no one was allowed to get in and talk to any council members without an appointment. We reported back to Alpha and informed him about it, so we requested an appointment online, but until now, we haven’t received any response.”

“Do we have a traitor in HQ?” I asked Elder Jass, who shrugged his shoulders. “I hope that none of the council members are involved in this,” I added angrily. Adeline might have felt it, so she held my hand, trying to soothe me.

The leaders of the Dark Blood Pack were looking at each other in confusion and shock. Maybe they didn’t know that something like this would happen to a place where every pack should get support. “I am sorry about this, Alpha Dominic. But I request that you send someone you can trust to be part of the werewolf council. Or better yet, you take part instead.”

“Wow! That’s overwhelming. If I had known that the council would be this approachable, I would have gone there and insisted on talking to you, Alpha.” I smiled at Alpha Dominic. I understand him because I’ve visited small packs who hesitate to come to us, thinking they won’t be able to get the help and attention they need. But,NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“I’m still lacking, knowing I failed you. It’s the very reason why, as much as possible, I wanted the council to be filled with every pack representative,” I replied. Everyone seemed to agree with what I said before we continued our discussion. I took the chance to learn about the needs that the council might provide for them, and I was astonished to know they only needed security assistance. Their pack is not as wealthy as the others, but they can provide for themselves.

Alpha Dominic and the others were just worried about the recent rogue sightings and attacks. So, I decided to leave the pack once their safety was secured and started collaborating with neighboring packs on training.

Elder Jass made a report about our visit, and once we get back to HQ, we will discuss this again and try to find out who the traitor was. We don’t need it since Elijah has started to move. Alpha Dominic couldn’t believe it, and he also gave me the list of his former pack members who had been found dead. He was worried since those pack members had all gone rogue and had done so much trouble in their pack. But he was more worried when he realized some cooperative pack members suddenly acted differently and opposed the werewolf laws.

‘Kais, I think fakes have infiltrated them.’ Adeline’s mind linked me, and I couldn’t agree more.
