KESKA/CORLA: and into the house. Mackie and I start heading into the kitchen to start helping right away when we get in. As we pass the dining hall, I see three of the most handsome guys I have ever seen in my life. They stand a head above everyone else. I believe that they are the Lycan princes, but I have to go.
\`~~~\`
TREVER: I am the youngest of my three brothers, I am a prince of the Royal Lycan family, My older brothers, myself and my best friend Dutch (He is third born in his family of Gamma’s.) were sent to this mating ball by our parents in hopes that we would find our mates, and they said that it was only polite that we come as this is Lilly’s pack and we need to show our respect, and then if Barett did find his mate, they could step down and let my brother take over, as he is the oldest at 22. Then Trent at 20, and me at 18. I am hoping that both of my brothers find their mates. That will leave me free and clear to travel, I just want to see the world, experience the different cultures and flavors the world has to offer. I have been on edge, though, since we got here. I keep smelling a hint of mint chocolate coffee, and it's driving me crazy. Every time I try to follow it, it seems like I am just a little too late to see who or what has that mouthwatering smell; it’s frustrating.
BARETT: I am feeling on edge, and have been since we got here. My beast won’t settle, and it is making me edgy and cranky. I go find the Alpha of the pack. “Alpha Drake, I am in need of a run. I was wondering where I might go.” I asked him. “Of course, your highness, we have a rather large wood, and a small lake that you may find peaceful. Just head back towards the gate you entered when you arrived and follow it west and south.” He tells me. “Thank you.” I link my brothers. “I am going for a run, you both are welcome to join me, but I need to take the edge off before the Meet and Greet tonight. I will be back before lunch. I tell them. “I’m going with you; my beast won’t stop pacing.” Trent sends back. “My brother Trent will be joining me.” I tell Alpha Drake. “I have linked the head guard to let him know that you will be running, and he has informed the rest, so you should be fine and not be interrupted.” He tells me. “Thank you.” Just then, Trent appears at my side. We head out the front door of the pack house and in the direction the Alpha gave us, as we get near the gate I see a tall wolf, rather muscular, with brownish hair and honey-colored eyes, strong masculine features with an air about him that says he doesn’t take shit from anyone. I can respect that. “Your highnesses, I have a backpack for you, and you can change over there.” He says, pointing to the side of a large rectangular-looking building. “Thank you, and you are?” I asked him. “I’m Mitchell, the head warrior here at Blue Crescent Pack.” He says calmly. “Nice to make your acquaintance, Mitchell. I hope that our guards are fitting in and not causing any problems.” I say to him. “Better than some, your highness.” He says, “But it’s nothing I can’t put to rights.” He tells me. “We will be back before lunch.” I tell him. He nods. We go to the side of the building strip, change, and head out.
TREVER: I get the link from my brother, but I opt out of the run. I just kind of want to explore the grounds and see if I can’t find that delicious smell. I link Dutch to see if he wants to join me. We see a lot of Alpha apparents about and chatting among themselves. I overhear just a bit of a conversation between two girls. I stop, as does Dutch. “Do they know yet who stabbed her?” The girl with ash blond hair asked, “Apparently they do, and they were punished.” The girl with darker hair answered. “Was Jessie behind it?” The ash blond asked, “That I don’t know, they haven’t said anything.” The other girl answered. (I wonder who got stabbed, and wasn’t Jessie one of the twins? There is a mystery here for sure, but it’s not my business to get involved in.) I thought to myself. We continue to walk around the grounds exploring, and come across a door that looks to open into nowhere, so I open it, and surprise, it’s a garden, we go in. It is set up like one of those meditation mazes. Only this is with flower beds and not hedges, it helps to ease my beast somewhat, so I just wander through it. Until the call for lunch comes. I link my brothers to see if they are back yet. *“They just called for lunch, are you back yet?” “Yes, we are just coming in now. Where are you?” “In the garden maze, it’s inside the square.” “What?” “Just look around, you will see doors that seem to open to nothing, open one.”* I hear the door opening and turn to see my brothers entering the garden. “Wow, this is nice.” Trent says. “We may have to figure out how to incorporate something like this at the palace.” Barett adds. I nod. We all leave the garden and head upstairs to freshen up and get ready for lunch.
DRAKE: As lunch gets underway, I see Keska in her usual place helping in the kitchen like she is a common omega. I shake my head, I go get her and Mackinzie, and put them in the dining room to eat with the rest of the families and our guests. I clink my glass to get everyone’s attention. “Attention Please! Attention, I just want to thank you all for coming to celebrate the mating ball and my first set of twins’ 18 birthday, I know that most of you have traveled from a great distance, so we have left the afternoon open so you may rest before the Meet and Greet tonight, the festivities will start at 7:0’clock tonight dinner will be buffet style. Again, thank you for coming, and may the goddess bless you with finding your mates. Enjoy lunch.” I then sit down as a signal for everyone to go ahead and eat.
TREVER: I am watching the Alpha as he enters what appears to be the kitchen and comes out with two girls marching in front of him, and then it hits me that wonderful smell of mint chocolate coffee, I hear my beast say mate in my head. Oh great. I link my brother. *"Barett I have a problem, the girl the Alpha just came out of the kitchen with is my mate.” “Which one?” “The one that takes after Marsh.” “She does, doesn’t she, must be related to Lilly.” “Not the point, she’s not 18 yet. And she is sitting with the Alpha’s family, I don’t recall her being there when we met everyone.”* I say through the link. *“He did say one of his kids was showing another guest to their room, so it had to be her.”* Barett tells me. *“Damn and the full moon is tonight as well, we will have to talk to the Alpha.” “And just what do we say, we can’t take her, she has at least one, if not two, years to go before she is 18. It’s going to drive me nuts if I can’t have her close to me.” “Calm down, little bro, we will figure something out.”* I nod my head. Then I get a link from Dutch, *“The girl that came out with the Alpha, and is sitting with the Gamma family, is my mate.” “Welcome to the nightmare, the other one is my mate. And I believe that they are both underage, so we are going to have to suffer and wait for them.”* I send back to him. He groans, and I nod my head.
