Writers POV

"Your Highness," came a deep shaky, male voice from behind.

"Let me guess, you haven't found her." He said it without glancing back.

"N-no Your Highness." Before the man could blink, he was pinned to the wall by his neck. Prince Aiden squeezing his neck like it was a stress ball,

"How did a girl despair under your nose? huh?" He asked, in an incredibly calm voice, that sent cold shivers down the man's spine. His eyes were blood-red mixed with gold yellow, indicating his beast was at bay.

"I-uh" His voice came out to be scrambled

"Who made you the head warrior again? And what's your job when you're at the border? Do remind me again, will you." Aiden said clenching his jaw. The head warrior tried to wiggle out of his strong grip, but it was in vain. He could not answer as his throat was being crushed.

"Did she just vanish in thin air?" He asked him again.

The head warrior was now gasping for air as his lungs were giving up, and his brain was becoming baffled by the lack of oxygen. Prince Aiden had put more and more pressure on his throat with each passing second. The head warrior was about to pass out when the office door of Prince Aiden was knocked. He didn't bother to respond, because his beast was hungry for blood.

"ANSWER ME!"

As Prince Aiden lets out an ear bulging growl, his office door flies open and walks through his Beta.

"No Alpha, you must let him go." He grabbed the hand of Prince Aiden, who was holding his head warriors' throat. Nick tried to take his Alpha hands off the warrior, Aiden turned to look at his Beta, his Beta swallowed hard by the look of his Alpha. He knew that if he didn't do something, the place would crash down. Nick just knew what he was going to do, he said,

"Please Alpha, try to understand what if they find Luna, and she's stepping here to see you like this? Crushing his head warrior's neck? That's not going to be a good first impression right now, would it be?" He was trying to say that the last line, with a tone of joke hopping, would lighten up his mood. And he was right, the eyes of Prince Aiden went back being blue with a little red and gold yellow mixed in them, and he removes his hand. Beta Nick sighed in relief, he did not expect his Alpha to calm down so quickly just by mentioning the girl.

The head warrior falls with a hard thud, trying to consume as much oxygen as he can while coughing. Beta Nick gives him a wave of hand telling him to leave, he nods and rushes out of the room like someone caught his tail on fire.

"You've got to try and keep your cool. It's not his fa..."

"Finish that sentence and you're not going to live to see the sunshine tomorrow," Aiden said in a threatening tone. Beta Nick tossed his arms in surrender. Prince Aiden walks behind his huge wooden desk and sits down, running his hands through his hair in frustration. As the Beta follows every move, he knows that his Alpha is on the verge of rampage and how bad the situation is for him. Which puts the whole kingdom in danger.

"I don't fucking understand! How did she just...disappear from a locked room!"

"Through the balcony!" Nick said that in an obvious way. Aiden glared at his Beta for his statement.

"My room is on the fourth floor of Nick! How did a human girl survive the fall? Please enlighten me with the explanation."

"Oh, yeah. You're right, man." He said touching his chin. Aiden turned to his chair and looked aimlessly into the woods. Upon the forest floor lie trees of yesteryear, fallen in storms long forgotten. The seasons have been harsh, stripping away the bark and outer layers, yet rendering them all the more beautiful. They have the appearance of driftwood, twisting in patterns that remind Aiden of seaside waves; even the colour of the moss is kelp-like. They are soft, damp! The pines are several houses tall, reaching toward the golden rays of spring. Birdsong comes in lulls and bursts, the silence and the singing working together as well as any improvised melody. His heart stopped beating so fast for a moment, and his beast forgot his desperation and blood lust.

"Alpha" Aiden was drawn back to reality, and his beast remembered his bloodthirsty desire and his longing for their mate. He turned back to take a look at his Beta. Nick went on to say,

"Your parents are here." Aiden frowned, this was the last thing he needed right now.

He was riding this silver cocoon over the earth, his eyes on the trees that grow in their infinite patience, leave breathing out his oxygen, bathing in the same moonlight as he soon will. He could feel the movement of the wheels over the road, following the curves and greeting each slope in its smooth way. This could have been a peaceful ride unless he was extremely concerned about his friend and the girl glued to his arms like a sloth on a tree. He felt disgusted with her touch, he would only throw her out of the car if her parents did not bind her to him. He did not wish to recall his conversation with his parents in his office the very afternoon. It's more appropriate to call that a heated argument than a conversation that made Aiden almost jumped to strangle his father, King Bruce. He sighed, thinking about the complications that his father and he are in. He just hopes that he will find her, and when he does, he will show his father how much better she is than Julia. Just because Julia is a lycan doesn't mean she's qualified to become a queen, let alone be his mate. Julia was nagging at him right now, he almost felt like he's cheating on his mate and he felt more disgusted, giving her a deadly glare he looking out the window. The car was now on a concrete road in a dense forest. Soon the surrounding area was clearing and a beautiful five-story mansion was visible.

Once the car was near the metal gate, the guards immediately opened it and bowed as the car passed through the door towards the mansion.

The car came to the main entrance, and the driver opened the door to get him down. He got down first, and he helped Julia get down, too. He didn't forget his etiquettes as much as he hated her touching him. Walking into the huge ballroom through the magnificent wooden double door, they were welcomed by the huge ballroom, beautifully decorated with a white and blue design aesthetic. Chandeliers were hanging around and filled with elegantly dressed people who were chatting. As soon as the Alpha greeted Prince Aiden, the entire room was silenced by his presence.

"Welcome to the Dark Woods Pack of Your Highness." Alpha Charlie greeted Prince Aiden, baring his neck with respect. But Prince Aiden seemed distracted, and Julia shook his hand, trying to get his attention

"Hey? Aiden?"

As soon as his name left her lips, a vicious growl left Aiden's mouth, shaking the entire room. His eyes were now showing glimpses of yellow gold, meaning that his beast was at bay, the whole room cowardly with fear. His head snapped to his right and fell on a perfectly sculpted female figure who was wearing a long velvet red strapless dress that showed a decent amount of cleavage. It had a high slit showing a long, pale leg. His eyes travelled through her entire body, landing on her beautiful Doey hazel brown eyes, which held complete disbelief and shocked her lips parted and she was breathing heavily, her fierce black hair...wait what! A wrinkling formed between his brows, but he shook his head slightly getting rid of any other thoughts

"Mine"

The word left his mouth loud and clear, he took a step towards her and to his utter disbelief, she turned around and began to run. A loud and powerful growl came from him, shaking the whole room and the people there. He ran after her passing through the balcony, losing her track he was looking elsewhere, he looked down and found her running into the dense forest. Immediately his mind linked to the warriors who came with him, ordering them to follow and catch the girl. The next minute, he saw eight beasts on his mate's trail running into the forest. He went back to the side of the ballroom, taking a long leg in front of the Alpha Charlie. He grabbed his neck, and he was a few feet high in the air. "She was in your pack all this time and you didn't let me know! Lying to your King! Keeping my mate away from me! Your Queen!"

"I'm your Queen!" Julia said with a growl in an angry tone.

"IF YOU DON'T WISH TO SPEND REST OF YOUR LIFE IN PRISON, YOU WILL KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT." Julia trembled at her feet with a mighty aura coming from Prince Aiden. Moving back to the Alpha in his grip, he let out another vicious growl.

"Respond to me!" The Alpha was gasping to try to claw his hand. He could not take out a single word, the pressure on his throat was increasing, and the black dots clouded his vision. His neck was about to crack when Aiden was mind linked,

"We got her, Alpha."
