CHAPTER FOUR.

MIKHAIL'S P.O.V

I woke up early today because my wolf Caleb is acting restless and excited for some unknown Reason. I asked why he's so happy but he only told me that I would find out soon and when I tried to ask more questions he didn't reply. Deciding to ignore him I took a bath, ate breakfast and went to my office to do some paper work. After going through some documents I found out that we had been sensing Rouges near our territory for about a month now. They weren't attacking or anything but it was very suspicious and the part that baffles me most is that whenever we track their scents to a specific part in the forest surrounding our pack we wouldn't find anyone there like they just disappeared or something and that bothered me a lot. I had given orders to the guards to double the patrols around the forest and to increase the pack training, I had to make sure we were ready should there be an attack on the pack. We had to maintain our status as one of the strongest packs in America and I had to prove to the enemies that I was a Brutal Alpha so that they would think twice before attacking my pack. I rub my forehead as I feel a headache coming on. The paper work has been stressing me out for the past few days. I remember when my parents were still alive and I used to watch my father do paperwork. Back then I didn't really understand much of what he was doing but I didn't attempt to know more about the pack work. I thought I still had a long way to go before becoming Alpha of the pack but I didn't anticipate that my parents would be killed In a rogue attack and that I would have to become Alpha when I wasn't even ready.

I clench my fists when I remember the day my parents died. It was a few months to my 18th birthday party and a rogue group had attacked. We could have overpowered them but my mother got hurt in the process of getting the pups out of harm's way. One of the rogue's snuck up on her and managed to injure her leg. My father felt the pain and got distracted from his fight with the leader of the rogues. The man wasn't an ordinary rogue, I've never seen such skill and intelligence in a normal rogue. That little moment of distraction was enough for him. He ripped out my father's throat and my father bled out on the forest floor. I was also fighting against some rogues when I heard my mother's scream of agony. I looked at her and saw her running towards my father's lifeless body on the floor. She reached him in seconds and started crying. I saw one of the rogues approaching her from behind. She was too distracted to notice, I tried to run to her but I was too late. He ripped her head right off her neck. I remember freezing in my place for a few seconds because I couldn't believe what I saw. I felt a rage so dangerous that it threatened to destroy me whole. I rushed at the rogue immediately ripping him to shreds. I started tearing into the rogues and in a few minutes my black fur was coated into the coppery liquid that was the rogues blood. After tearing apart several rogues i realized that the man who murdered my father was no longer in the forest. He was gone, we couldn't find him. I spent months loathing every rogue in existence after that incidence. The heartache of telling my little sister Daphne that she wouldn't see our parents anymore. I wonder if that man is still alive, to make him pay for what he did to my family and pack. Ever since then I became the alpha and took care of the pack. I had everything under control but I didn't have a mate. Others found their mates when they were 18 but I was 24 years already and still mateless and to be honest I had already given up on ever having a mate. I was already planning to pick a girl from my pack and mate her so that the pack can have their Luna but my younger sister Daphne doesn't agree with me on that, she thinks it's a disrespect to my mate by getting with someone else. she hasn't found her mate too but she still has a chance since she's just 18. Later that evening while I was working I heard a knock on the door when my beta/best friend Jace and my Delta Mark came in.

I looked at them "what's wrong?" I asked "look we sensed someone in the forest surrounding the area, we think it's a human but we're not sure" Jace said which got me annoyed. Could it be the Rouges we have been sensing for a while now? And if it's them what do they want now? They definitely need to investigate but if it's just a human and they see them in wolf form then that could cause problems too. "Okay you and Mark go check it out but make sure you shift back to your human forms before showing yourselves to the person, we wouldn't want you scaring a human since you're not sure who it is". "They agreed and left after telling me that they would mind link me when they got there. After about 10 minutes I heard Mark's voice in my head "hey bro it's just a human girl". "Okay what's she doing there?" I asked surprised, it wasn't everyday that we found humans in the forest. The pack was located here so as to keep from humans and now I find out one is in the forest. "She says she's just passing by and she seems pretty harmless" Mark is always like this, he sees the good in everyone and can vouch for anyone. "No! bring her to the pack house so I can question her, we don't know if she saw any of the pack members shifting or if she's a spy" I told Mark getting Annoyed that he was planning on letting her go. "But how do we convince her to come with us? She might think we want to do something bad to her and run" Mark asked. "convince her that this land belongs to a group of people and that the leader wants to talk to her to make sure she's not a threat to the safety of the people" I need to question her to make sure she wasn't sent here to spy on the pack by other packs or even worse by Rouges. "She agreed to come with us. We're headed for the pack house now" Mark said. After a while I heard a knock on the door and I knew they were here, I told them to come in and I looked up to see the girl. I was surprised when my eyes landed on her. she was the most Beautiful girl I'd ever seen before, she had blonde hair and brown eyes. Those eyes seemed to be calling out to me and she smelt like peaches and honey. I was still lost staring at her when I heard Caleb my wolf yelling in my head saying "Mate, she's our Mate" i couldn't stop myself from saying it out loud, she looked confused about what I said but Jace and Mark GASPED knowing what I meant by that.
