The Lycan King

Nikolai

All the lights of the pack house were lit and it looked grander than ever. I heard murmurs saying 'he's here', 'Alpha's here', 'get ready'. My curiosity rose as I walked into the living room.

The lady in red caught my attention. In fact, she was the only one who had my attention. And I, her's. She gave me a dazzling pearly-white smile that made her dimples pop and I swear my heart stopped.

I took long steps to cover up the distance between us and held her hand and twirled her around herself, making her dress swoosh and then snaked my arm around her waist and dipped her as I have her a sweet? kiss.

"Wow, that was hot." I heard a girl say and then some hooting.

Grinning, I pulled Ava to her feet. "You look beautiful."

Blush rose on her cheeks as she smiled shyly at me, her big doe shaped eyes melting my heart. "Y-you too."

I heard some chuckles around us and my smile widened. "And that, kids, is how you make your lady speechless."

I looked at all the teenagers that surrounded us and gave them a wink.

"I hope my mate didn't cause too much trouble?" I joked.

"Nope. Only enough." A girl winked at Ava.

Ava grinned. "All of these fine young wolves have helped me the entire day. We have planned a party after the dinner which includes more greasy food, music and drinks which the entire pack will attend. I think we all deserve a last hooray before the big day." She said the last sentence softly.

"Excellent idea, Love." I nodded and looked at the kids. "Thank you so much for helping us. This wouldn't have been possible without your help."

Their chests puffed out and eyes shone with pride.

"Our guests are here." Mikhail announced as he entered.

"Let's go greet them." I grabbed Ava's hand and pulled her to the entrance.

Two cars and then a couple of mini buses rolled to a stop at the gates. Rhazien stepped out of the car and to my surprise, he had brought Tessa with him. Slowly, all the vampires started filling out and started making their way towards us.

"King Nikolai. Queen Avalyn." He bowed. Dimitri and Andrei, who had been tasked with bringing them in through the borders joined my side.

"Rise." I said. He stood straight with a grin. I clasped Rhazien's hand and gave him a handshake. After that, he greeted Ava with a kiss at the back of her hand.

"Pleasure to meet you again." He nodded. "If only the circumstances were better."

"You steal my words, Lord Rhazien." I said swiftly. "I welcome you all to the Rogue Pack. Please join is for dinner and a small party with the entire pack after that." I addressed everyone that had gathered behind him with a welcoming smile and then we all made our way inside.

All the high ranking vampires sat with us on the dining table and the rest were accommodated in the common eating area. The slaves did a quick job of serving everyone with their food and a glass of blood.

table was set, I stood up from my seat and raised my own glass of whiskey. "I would like to personally thank all of you for coming here and agreeing to fight for us. The Alpha of The Montana Pack, Emilio Gonzalez has never liked vampires. He first killed his own Alpha— Alpha Javier Alvarez and then strategically killed and removed all the vampires from his pack. He has violated the Vampire-Werewolf Treaty and has yet to suffer the consequences. The werewolf high council has neglected its duties.
