Chapter 5. He is the Alpha Prince

• Carmela *

I saw a beautiful woman with a baby in her hands Her face is a picture of beauty and love, I turned my eyes and looked around then I noticed the luxurious place that we're in is full of baby things. From the hand-carved baby cribs and rocking chairs up to the glamorous baby dressers.

She is there sitting in what seems to be a very huge bed with sumptuous beddings and luxury features that only fit royalty. The room is also filled with gold decor from its walls to the ceiling and polished marble floors.

As I am standing at the corner watching silently, the big doors suddenly opened and a tall man came in.

"How is our son, my Queen?

The man is devastatingly handsome with hazel eyes and I immediately noticed his resemblance to my abductor. Tall and statuesque like a spitting image of him. She looks up at him with fondness in her brown eyes and as he walks near she answers.

"Oh, our Prince Jack is sleeping my King. Be careful not to wake him up please".

The man smiled and walked slowly.

As I heard the two of them converse and whisper their love for the child I asked myself why I am seeing this? None of them notices me, it's as if I am invisible.

A few moments have passed when the scene changes slowly.

My eyes blinked a few times as everything started with a blur then I saw a young boy running in the green grass inside a wide forest full of trees and wild flowers. Now I know this boy's name is Jack. He is my abductor and he is a prince! At this time he is just about twelve years old, and I don't know how I traveled back at this time.

I looked at him as he ran fast then his body twisted and his body hair grew. His clothes started to tear and he jumped high up in the air.

I am shocked and in disbelief, when I saw him land on the ground as a big furry beast with sharp claws and long fangs.

The little boy turned into a wolf! A dark gray wolf. I trembled and stepped back. My whole body is shaking in fear. My father's tale when I was young is true, these creatures do exist and right now my life could be in danger. I covered my eyes with both of my hands as I waited for the beast to attack me. But he didn't, instead, I saw two more wolves come to greet him.

One big black wolf and the other is white. The boy is the small dark gray one with golden eyes, and he seemed to be their child. They're a family of wolves!

As the young gray wolf looked at the two. His father sniffed the air urging him on what to do and he followed.

The young wolf ran and I followed too, like I'm drawn to the force that came from him. He stopped to tackle a boar, and in one violent but swift move, he ended its life. I looked at the gray wolf's muzzle as it was covered in blood, I should be disgusted but I am not. Instead, I watch as he finishes his blood and runs through the hills then again he shifts, this time into a tall young man with a lean body, broad shoulders, and a handsome face also a perfectly chiseled jawline.

His golden brown eyes reflected the light of the moon as he looked up at the sky. He stood there naked in the middle of the night, as he howled at the full moon giving thanks for his meal.

He then shifted back into a huge gray wolf, this time he was surrounded by other wolves who were just hiding behind the trees. One by one they came out, my eyes opened wide in terror as I lost count of their numbers. There are so many of them that I thought I was going to faint. I'm still afraid.

But then I know that they don't see me and this is all nothing but just a dream so I continued to watch, and slowly made myself feel at ease. I watched intently as the formation of the wolves gets ready for battle then I began to understand, this is an army of wolves and the leader is Prince Jack.

I watched as their opponent, another group of wolves with dirty black fur started the fight and the gray wolf stayed and kept his stance.

As I watched I felt my heart begin to pound faster and my skin began to sweat, i held my breath when the gray wolf was being attacked. But he is stronger and more powerful he could take two at a time. He jumps and claws them then sinks his fangs on their necks, he never stops until the opponent lies lifeless on the ground.

I heard the loud whimpers of the dying wolves. The crying of the ones who met their bitter ends. Their blood painted the green grass red. It wasn't long before the winners had been decided, the army of wolves which was led by Prince Jack. Somehow I felt relieved that he wasn't hurt. Like watching a show that goes on I began to get attached to the main lead whose name is Jack.

But I can't help but wonder how these things relate to my abduction by this handsome Prince. So I followed him as he marched his way to the big palace.

At the front gate, he was greeted with a band and both the King and Queen of this beautiful land. I admired him as he shifted back into a man who's both handsome and strong but naked. The servants quickly covered him in fine garments to hide his naked body that was in a split second at plain sight to the people around. But that was all too quick I only had a glimpse.

The people greeted him, adorned him with warm kisses and hugs. A huge celebration was discussed after a few days when the wounded wolves would heal, a feast would be held to honor their victory with the Prince.

After the people left, the Prince stayed sitting beside his Father who was also a good-looking man with godly features. No doubt that their beauty is not normal, the kind in which even if you put them in the middle of a thousand people their faces would still stand out.

"My son it's about time you find your mate. You're mother and I are set to travel the world in a few years. Claim your mate and ascend the throne."

"Father!

The tone of protest in Prince Jack's voice is obvious as he jerks forward from the luxury chair.

"I am still busy with the battles that our pack is facing". His excuse.

"Some of the battles are not necessary my son! They will soon bow down to you and accept you as the King of all Alphas. You are a Langstone, the strongest in the Royal pack. My son, with our blood that's immune to silver we are invincible!

Let the word spread that only the Langstone bloodline has this gift from the moon Goddess, then you will see the enemy of our pack cower in fear!

"Find you're mate and marry her! Claim the throne and produce heirs".

I listened to his father's words then the word mate sinks in. A shiver ran through my skin if i am his mate it means that I am abducted to become the prince wolf's bride. How is this even possible? I am still young. Yes, this Prince Jack is a fine-looking man with a body that's to die for but he's not human!

"Give me a little time Father, then I will go look for my mate".

Prince Jack turned his back on the King and started to walk away when the King replied.

"I will consult this matter with Maleficus and have a meeting with you after a week my son. Now, I understand you are tired from the battle so rest and enjoy but remember none of the she wolves outside is your mate!

"See you after a week Father".

Prince Jack continues to walk outside with a grim face that makes my heart ache a little.

I felt my hand being squeezed really hard and I snapped back to reality. Back in the room where I am detained and standing in front of me is the old man named Maleficus. My eyes are still misty from the scenes that I've watched and my mind is a little dizzy.

"Do forgive me Carmela but that dizziness is just a slight after effect it will pass in a few minutes. Now I understand that we are clear about Prince Jack's motives to you and you're fate as his mate".

He smiled gently at me like a grandpa to a grandchild but I am not his family or Prince Jack's mate!

"No no no! There could be a mistake I think I'm not the person you are looking for!

I turned my head sideways while grabbing my hands away from the old man named Maleficus.

"There's no mistake here Carmela, the Alpha will never make a mistake regarding his mate. We know you are here in this little town that's why we came. It is you that he sniffed, he is very drawn to your scent. As a human, you didn't feel anything for him aside from the mild sexual attraction but when you turned into a she-wolf you will understand".

"W-what!?

I must be hearing this wrong, yes I am sexually attracted to him but who wouldn't?

A she-wolf means not human! And I for one never wants to be a beast or the Prince's of the wolves' bride.
