Alpha Dominic

Dominic's POV

“Secure our borders, send more guards to keep watch on the gate, I don't want any surprises, keep all intruders out." I instructed Carl and Harriet as I shifted into my beast and went out to engage the infiltrators before they could get here.

I got a report from my spies to inform me that the king is sending some warriors to infiltrate my castle. I sent some men to investigate and they confirmed that it is true. He had planned to take me unawares. He must have heard about my victory party, that is why he sent his men over to sneak in when we weren't looking.

I've gota mole in my camp and he/she is biting more than they can chew. My castle is fortified like a fortress and I'm pretty sure that they can never sneak past my security measures. I had my warriors split into four groups and we chased them through the woods, driving them towards one of the minefields around my borders. We watched them get blown into bits and pieces, putting an end to their miserable lives. King Ashford is nothing but a spineless kitty cat. He keeps sending his warriors to their death while he seats back in his palace and indulges in his frivolous lifestyle.

I have sworn not to be such a lazy king, I love being in the game and I get a kick from all these actions, it's taking my mind of Bethany and I get to taunt king Ashford and make him go mad with videos of my victories, it's so much fun. I stopped by the Alphas court and I called for an emergency meeting with all the Alphas, someone among them is messing with me. My instinct says it's Alpha Robert Delaney, but I still haven't been able to prove anything so I let him roam freely, letting him to believe that he is too smart to be caught. But I have him on strict watch and soon, I'll be able to find out how he communicates and send information to king Ashford. When I gather enough evidence to implicate him, I'll call him out on hi deeds and have him hanged for treachery. He is beginning to take my leniency for weakness and it's f****g pissing me off. “Someone among you is leaking information to king Ashford. Now, I know a lot of you still feel that you owe him your loyalty I think I have been patient enough with you all and right now, I am here to announce to you that as of today, I am now fully dedicated to searching for the mole among us and his accomplice. This is a warning to anyone that still feel that I am not fit to be king, this is a warning to all those plotting against me right under my roof, be warned, Alphas. If I discover the culprit or culprits responsible for all this, I would not be lenient in my punishment. You will be hanged and your family will be banished out of my kingdom and ill be sure to send them over to King Ashford. Let's see how they survive as slaves to the Lycans.

This is not a threat, it is a warning and it is my final warning. Stay away from my activities. I am King Dominic, neither you no King Ashford can do anything to change that. It's either you fall in line or you suffer the same fate as the Lycan warriors that just lost their lives for their spineless king. Like I said earlier, this is just a fair warning, keep your sneaky nose out of my business” I spat out in disgust, keeping my eyes pinned on Alpha Robert as I said the last words. I did not wait for their questions, I got up and left their presence right after I expressed my displeasure.

It was already 6:00 pm when we arrived back at Castle Black. I was informed of the arrival of the girls and I could see that th banquet hall has been prepared. I did not realize how hungry I was until I got hit by an aroma coming from the kitchen. Bianca has outdone herself again, she is such a good cook. She is the last daughter of Alpha Richard of the pitch-black pack Alpha Richard is one of the wise Alphas that agreed to support my reign. A few days after I conquered his pack, he offered hi last daughter to me, asking me to train her to be like Harriet. I tried training her as a warrior but she just doesn't belong to the battlefield. I was planning to send her back to her father's house before she gets herself killed in training, then she confessed to me that she is more skilled in the kitchen and she offered to work in my kitchen and oversee the affairs of my castle.

I accepted her offer because I know that she has the expertise to run this Castle perfectly besides, I have no plans of mating with any she-wolf anytime soon. She is an Alphas daughter and she is used to being in charge. So far, she has been doing great and her cooking is to die for. She had amazed me with her special skills in the kitchen. Her foods are so good, so frrr4g good. One time, she tried to make a pass at me and I got so pissed at her because I make it a habit not to fool aroun with omega’s or other domestic staffers, I plan to lead by example so I try to keep my hands off the girls. I prefer using the girls at the club to satis2fy my desires, that way, I don't have to be scared about getting tricked or blackmailed.

When Bianca tried to get down with me, I had wanted to send her away, but I just couldn't do it, I would not be able to eat any other food that is not prepared by her, she is just too good, so good. I put up with some of her nasty behaviour because know that she is a keeper, her food could make a grown man forget his own name. I ran u the stairs to my room, taking the stairs two at a time so I can hurry down and eat some of those delicious meals that are making me salivate right now. I'm sure that everyone would be waiting impatiently for me but that is not my major concern right now, all I want to do is to eat those delightful, tasty meals.

I'am hoping that some of my men would find their mates among these girls, our population is decreasing every year. It's pretty difficult to find a mate. Most guys don't wait for their mates anymore, you simply get a girl you're compatible with anc you get mated, it's as simple as that. Sometimes, we find our mates among humans, but if anyone ends up falling in love with a human girl that is not your mate, well, it's up to you to try and convince her to stay and the decision to either stay or leave lies sorely on the girl.

I spent some time in the bathroom, trying desperately to wash off the stench of the lycan blood that splash on us when they got blown away. It’s just a formal party so there is absolutely no need to dress too formal. I decided to go on casual but I ha to look the part of a king so I don't get mistaken for a commoner, right? Gosh! I must have forgotten how difficultly get for m whenever I want to pick an outfit to go out. I wanted to look casual but I ended up wearing a black shirt, black trousers and black trench coat. I put a brown scarf around my neck, completing my fashion style with a brown Italian moccasin. I put on my brown leather Relogios Lite wristwatch. I finished dressing and grooming myself before I turned to look at the mirror. “Mehn, I look dapper”

I hope I don't steal someone's mate tonight because I look good, so damn good. I wish Bethany could see me tonight, I know she would drool at my good looks, she would never be able to resist my charms, I'm so irresistible. As I walked down the stairs, I felt Scott stirring in my head. I didn't think much into it, I guessed he simply wants to ruin my fun as usual. I pushed him to the back of my head and I shut out his rambling, he can be so annoying sometimes. If you ask me, I think Scott wants “me to turn celibate simply because I could not find his mate. He is never happy when I get other girls to satisfy my desires and sometimes, he tries to ruin my fun time with my pack, he is just so annoying and sometimes it can be so frustrating. “Not today man, I won't let you ruin my fun. For f***s sake, I just defeated two squads of Lycan warriors, I deserve a break, okay. You need to chill out and enjoy the party," I muttered softly before shutting him out completely. I could feel his anger as he tries to break out but I didn't let him out, not even for a second. I walked into the banquet hall and an applaud erupted in the hall as they all cheered and applauded my entrance. I took my seat at the end of the table, then I made a hand gesture for them to sit down and they all sat down in their respective seats.

“There is only one rule tonight, let's party like never before. You my faithful warriors and generals, you earned all this fun fo yourselves, you deserve it. I wish for you all to find your mates, believe me, I know how difficult it is for a warrior to live without his mate to bring him peace of mind.

But I must warn you all, these his must be treated with love and respect. The decision to stay or leave lies with the girls, let them make their choices. On that note, go get the girls Bianca, it's fun time." I ordered with a smirk, earning me more cheers from the guys. While we waited for the girls to arrive, the omega's brought out the appetizers and placed them on every tabl in the hall. I took a bit from a few plates, confused on what to settle for because everything looked pretty appetizing. I bit into the bacon-wrapped scallop that seemed to be topped with some sort of creamy substance on the top. I had to suppress a most as the taste exploded in my mouth. My eyes wanted to roll into the back of my eyes. I ignored everyone around, not bothering much with the chit chat except to agree with people that were praising the food. Then I felt it again, that tug on m heartstrings that had Scott howling in excitement.

“Damn it, Scott!!!

Why must you be such a joy killer?

The least you can do is to let me savour these delicious appetizers, it's been a long day man. What are you whining about this time, what could be so important that you can’t wait for me to get food into my...

I broke off in my question when I watched the girls walk in, taking precise steps as they walked in like models on a runway. I wasn't really captivated by their beautiful walks, what got me gawking at them is a redhead that looks like the goddess of fire. She had the looks that could be mistaken for a fallen angel but her redhead makes her look wild and fabulous. It felt like her body and heart were waging war together. By her calm and collected demeanour, You could tell that she is a calm and collected person but her outfit and her looks spoke a different story. She is wearing a floor-length blue gown that flows down to the floor. The sleeves are thin and off-shoulder with a long slit on the right side running up her thigh, exposing her beautiful, spotless long legs. The back of the gown has a very low neckline that shows off my flawless skin at her back, and her red heels match with her purse and hair. Her wavy red hair is combed out and it flows down her shoulder, giving her an enchanting look. She wore a gold earring, necklace and bracelet that suits me and compliments her outfit, I just couldn't take my eyes off her.

“The redhead is mine," I told everyone through our mind link, but I had my eyes on her, looking closely at her face. She had her eyes down and I could tell that she is avoiding my eyes on purpose, but it doesn't change a damn thing. That face, that pretty face that had nearly made me go crazy. I could point out that face in a crowded dark room, I've gazed at her picture long enough to know every line and spot on her face. Why don't I smell her?

Could my mind be playing tricks on me?

This must be why Scott is acting all weird, he must have sensed her presence even if he doesn't smell her. According to Carl, she had run away from here because she thought I was going to kill her, now she is her in my Castle, disguised as a redhead, looking so sexy and tempting. She must be really smart or very stupid, Why would she come back here and how did she become a stripper?

Is she trying to play a fast one on me?

Everyone was waiting for me to make my choice. I had already told them that I wanted the redhead, but they just can't go to the floor before me, besides, they know I may probably pick more than one girl and that is exactly what I plan to do. That redhead is Bethany Delaney and she has got some tricks up her sleeve, I just don't know what she is planning, but I'm willin; to play along and see what she is made of. Does she know that I am her mate? Her wolf is most be suppressed because I can't feel the connection and I can't perceive her scent. I stood up and walked to the girls, moving from one girl to the other I stopped in front of a blonde lady that looks to be in her early twenties, and she is standing right next to Bethany with her head down, looking so young and innocent.

“Hello beautiful, what's your name?” I asked her with a warm smile, lifting her head to gaze into her eyes. I could feel Beth's eyes on me and from the corner of my eyes, I could see her brown eyes gazing intently at me. Why are her eyes brown, why i everything so different about her?

“Marcus, did you happen to mention my name to the girls before you brought them here?” I asked him curiously. He is the one I put in charge of this operation. He is a beta in one of the packs I conquered and he offered to work for me. He acts a bit weird sometimes, I always catch him with one of the omega’s and he never sticks to one chick. I've warned him severally but he just can't control his d**k, but he is still useful to me so I have to put up with his stupidity sometimes. So far, he hasn't forced himself on any girl so I don't pay too much attention to his lousy attitude.

“I did my king, I let them know that I was bringing them to castle black to meet our king. Is there a problem, my king?" he asked me back.

“No Marcus, there is no problem at all. Could you check on Carl and Harriet and find out why they are late to this party?” I told him as a mischievous smile spread across my face,

“This is going to be very funny?

What the hell is she up to?”
