Thirty minutes later, Alpha Stone walked into the pack house and went to the Alpha's chambers. Alpha Kasper was standing with his back to his father, his royal robe was already put off, leaving him with the inner clothing.
Alpha Stone stared at his son's back. A warrior, a trained warrior and one who had subdued packs and merged them together with the cliffwood pack was destined with a wolfless Omega.
How ironic!
"What message have you brought from the elders father?" He demanded. He knew that a meeting was summoned by the Pack's healer in respect of that curse thing she goes around with.
Nana is on his bad book, and he would bring her grey hair down at his feet. She just waited and saw what he would do to her.
"First, the elders request that you look into the injustice that Amelia was going through being referred to as a curse..." he was saying when Alpha Kasper raised his hand
"The second" he demanded and his father sighed softly. The rule of Kasper, his son, will be more brutal than his. He wouldn't take nonsense because he has zero tolerance for it.
"That you reject Amelia and leave her to fate. Whether she survived the rejection or not, that's her fate because we cannot jeopardize the fate of the royal family and the pack as a whole because someone might not survive a rejection" Alpha Stone explained.
Alpha Kasper's lips hived up with a smirk. Those elders think he is a toy that they can play with? Even if he intends to reject her, for now, he wouldn't. He wants to play around with her first.
He will so much torture her that she would beg him for the rejection because death will be more desirable by her than remaining with him.
"The elders are not going to tell me what to do. I am not you, dad" he deadpanned. He turned abruptly and faced his father, his eyes blazing red for fury.
"I am Alpha Kasper and I won't listen to any of the bullshit the elders are saying. I will do whatever I feel like doing, and they can't stop me. Anyone who dares, his head will roll and his blood will flow on the street of cliffwood pack!" He growled.
He could feel his wolf, trying to take over his human body. He was restraining it with all difficulty. If he does, he certainly knows he would devour some certain fools who parade themselves as elders of the pack.
"You should control your wolf, Kasper. You have to listen to the elders. They are the deciding party to whatever decision the Alpha is going to take concerning the pack. They don't have the right to interfere with your personal life but..." Alpha Stone was saying when Kasper interrupted him.
"Telling me what to do about my cursed mate, isn't that my private life? Who says they can advise the Alpha how or whatever he chooses to do with his mate?" He groaned.
"Nana the pack healer invited them over and made a complaint. But the final decision is solely yours to make, Alpha Kasper" Alpha Stone declared and simply nodded before stepping out of his chambers.
∆∆∆∆∆∆
"No ooo" Chelsea growled, her eyes fiery red and her fingers turned into claws and her bones cracked within a split of seconds and returned to her human form.
The elders insulted her father and she wouldn't let it go. She grabbed her sword and dashed out. She needs to teach someone a lesson and make her a public example.
Nana had crossed every line when she made a complaint against her man and now her father. The two most important personalities in her life had been ridiculed and she's not going to take it lightly.
"Chelsea, if you are to use your sword, it should be on that cursed thing locked up in the dungeon. Just a single blow, it would be over. And don't use your full strength, she's a wolfless and spineless pack member.." Beta Night instructed.
But Chelsea couldn't wait to hear that as she made her way to the old healer's pack. Her movements were fast and swift, walking with the speed of her wolf. She soon reached the old healer's house and grawled aloud.
She gnashed her teeth, her palm fastened tightly against her sword as she made a loud howling sound. The old hag should step out at once, she was ready to finish her up.
Nana immediately stepped out and saw the fury in Chelsea's face. Her wolf form had taken over her senses and she knew it wasn't the best time to argue or exchange words with her.
She turned to leave just when Chelsea raised her hand and let it descend on the head of the healer. It was just once, she doesn't need to do it twice.
The flattened side of her sword slapped against the old healer's skull. The old healer made a painful howl. Her old body slumped. Her wolf made grasping, graggling noises. From her old skull, she felt hurt and her scalp burned. Her pain filled howl far into the pack and everyone was at alert.
"You dare to make a complaint against Alpha Kasper and the Beta? This is the warning to you. The next time I come over to settle a score with you, it's your head that would roll" she growled and walked away.
She felt light. She's the most powerful female warrior in the pack. No one dares her, not even the male warriors. Only to Alpha Kasper can her sword drop.
"Curse, curse be upon you and your offspring forever, curse curse" the healer kept howling out curses on Chelsea but she cared nothing about the vain words she was uttering.
Pack members all rushed out, all cladded with swords at hand. When they saw Chelsea, the daughter of Beta, the best female warrior, no one could stop her or say a word.
Nana's blood dropped and those who came quickly bound up her wound. It would heal fast but her scalp might be affected, her hair might fall off and was definitely not going to grow back.
In low tones and whispers, everyone condemned the act of Beta's daughter. Nana was old enough to be her grandma. How can she do this to the old woman?
As fast as it takes wildfire to spread, the news soon got to the pack house. Alpha Kasper and the royal mother rushed down and saw the pathetic state of Nana. He was going to thundered on who did it, when his servant whispered to his ears.
"Chelsea Night did it, your highness"
Hearing it was Chelsea, the Alpha slipped away and asked that Chelsea be summoned. She had no rights to take laws into her hands and hurt anyone, especially an old woman like Nana.
Rather than coming at the Alpha's summon, beta Night came instead "Your Highness, I asked to speak on behalf of Chelsea. It was a defensive fight, your Highness. Nana attacked her first and she defended herself.
You know she's a warrior. Her fighting instincts took over and her sense of defense overrule her and she didn't remember that the one who attacked her was a weak old woman"
He waved his hand and said she might have to appear before the royal court the next morning" Alpha Kasper declared.
Beta Night smirked, it should have been Amelia, she should have been the one dead instead of Nana being hurt.
