Lycan Prince Matteo

The finals arrived, and I was glad to see two Midnight Pack members. Another warrior and Joric, the future Alpha I always see Joric giving me that “you’re mine” look, but I ignore him. I don’t know why he keeps on insisting he is my mate. He must have liked me, but I am sorry for him. I only like my prince, Matteo, and I only have one mate.

The five fighters wore their gear. It has a sensor that detects every hit. The king and Rapha thought about this. It was like fencing. The last two who had the least number of hits taken will be announced as winners.

The tournament was only held in human form. We already know how strong their wolves are, and strengthening them physically will make their wolves stronger.

When they shifted, wolves usually took over their bodies. And because they were animals, they were good when it came to survival. It is believed that the stronger the human form, the stronger the wolf. That’s how it works. It was solely for that reason that the tournament was organized and arranged.

It appears to me that Joric and the warrior agreed to work together. It was an advantage, and nobody would think it was unfair since they were both from the same pack and Joric was the future Alpha, as Jessie was planning on transferring to him the title depending on the result of this tournament. But their opponents weren’t stupid, so they decided to work together even if they were from three different packs. They made sure to eliminate them before they fought for the top two spots.

“Joric will be one of the winners,” Matteo said. I agree with him. Judging by the way the warrior took all the hits that were supposed to be his,

“Joric didn’t tell him to do that,” I replied.

“I know that. He was shocked every time the warrior took a hit. He thought in advance and already foresaw that they were going to join forces.”

“At least there’s one from my pack that will be a winner. I wonder if Alec and Clay will be able to be in the finals if they join too.”

“Do you want to see them fighting for you?” Matteo asked, which made me look at him in astonishment. Is he jealous now?

“Just so you know, Alec had found his mate, and Clay had already accepted the fact that we couldn’t be together.”

“And Joric?”

“What about him? He is nothing to me emotionally.” I couldn’t help but wonder, “Are you jealous?” I asked.

As he looked at the fighters and did not answer my question, I focused on the tournament as well. The warrior was smart enough to land a hit on whoever Joric was fighting against. I looked at the king and found him watching happily. I’m sure that it was because of the teamwork that they displayed, even if this round was for individuals. They had to win and think of any possible legal ways to make that happen.

As a result, Joric won, followed by Arthur from the Meadow Pack. “I would like to congratulate all the participants who attended this tournament. You have shown us a really good show.” King Marco said, “It was very entertaining, even if the purpose of this activity was to find out how capable every one of you is. If only the palace could take all of you at the same time for training, I would gladly do it. But we can’t,” he added. Then we continued with the award ceremony.

The happiness on everyone’s faces was priceless, and that made us very happy as well. In the end, King Marco announced that the top five, who had been very satisfactory in showing the importance of teamwork, would get the chance to train in the palace with the Lycans. The warrior who sacrifices himself to ensure Joric becomes one of the winners receives an extra award.

“He showed us that we might die in battle for the cause of our kind. Sacrifices happen, whether we like them or not. At the time we decide to do that, know that you will never be forgotten,” the king said, and everyone applauded the warrior. Everyone enjoys themselves after the award ceremony at the party.

Tomorrow, I am planning to ask everyone to conduct an Alpha training session for all incoming Alphas of every pack as well as for their betas and gammas. In addition to training them through fighting, it was imperative to train them to become responsible leaders. I don’t know if Joric learned anything from this tournament, but I still hope he did.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

My parents decided to stay in the Midnight Pack, and I wanted to ensure their safety under Joric. Having become a royal, I believe we should help future pack leaders become responsible and duty-driven. We retire for the day and look forward to the next day.

*** Dream ***

“Freya, you’re going to become a royal. I want you to learn everything you need to know. I am a hybrid, but you’re a pure wolf. You are just like your grandmother,” Lexi said.

“What do you want me to do, Mom?” young Freya asked.

“You do what I say. I want you to train harder than anyone else. Become the strongest version of yourself because many will try to prevent you from becoming a queen, so you have to fight for it. Never let anyone stop it from happening, and I will do my best to protect you as much as I can.”

“OK, mommy.”

“Listen to me now. When something bad happens, I want you to follow every word that I am going to tell you without questions being asked. Anything you need to know will be answered in time. I want you to be strong because you will face so much pain very soon. However, don’t worry; I will make it go away for the time being. But you have to promise me that when the time comes, you will be able to remember everything. Find it in your heart to calm yourself and think rationally.”

“I will try, Mommy,” she replied.

***** Change of scene in Freya’s dream ***** “Stay here, Freya!” Robert said.

“I want to go to Mom’s!~” she replied. “No! You need to hide and survive this!”

“Please, Daddy!” she pleaded, crying. In her young mind, she already knew something was happening because of the continuous howling from everyone in the pack.

Robert left her in the room and came in with Lexi. “I already showed you where to hide. Go there now, dear.”

“No, Mommy, I want to come with you.”

“Your daddy needs me now,” she said and ran off, thinking Freya would do as she said. As she went down into the living room, she saw her mate fighting a Lycan. She knew that no matter how strong Robert was, he was no match for that beast. She tried to help her mate and fought with him.

‘What are you doing, Lexi? Go and save our daughter!’ Robert exclaimed in their mind-link. ‘I can’t just leave you here.’

‘You and Freya are the most important to me. I need you two to be alive. Please leave with our daughter now.’ He pleaded.

Lexi was about to respond, but the Lycan grabbed her and pressed his paw against her heart. “Mommyyyyy…” A scream from the stairs made her look and find her daughter. The Lycan looked as well and paid full attention to Freya, who was now crying. Robert noticed that the beast was heading in his daughter’s direction, so he gathered his strength and stopped him.

Seeing that, Freya ran to her mother and tried to get her up. “Be strong, dear,” she said, and she started casting some spells. The child got injured without a reason and bled. “It’s a Lycan. Someone from the Lycans wants you dead.” Lexi whispered, but she understood it clearly. They both looked at their father and saw how the Lycans had killed him. Before everything becomes dark for her daughter, Lexi opens a portal and teleports her. The last thing Freya saw was her mother running towards her father before she completely shut her eyes.
