The Frozen Alpha novel Chapter 38

I walked into my packs building seeing my friends who had become alphas standing together with their mates with so much beauty in their behavior towards their mates and that made me think of my own mate.

I wondered how she would look like and what kind of behavior she would portray towards me and her newfound pack.

I turned to see my mum.

Luna was staring at me with a look that I found difficult to understand.

Was it my dressing?

Or was it because of the twelve-packs I had destroyed yesterday?

I walked towards her and she quickly removed her eyes from me as she stared elsewhere with her red curly hair and strands of white glittering off her head.

Even so, her facial beauty remained the same as the only thing that could change was her gray hair.

"Xavier! Today is such a great heart storming day for I and you together with all the members of this pack.

I am happy for you but something worries me which I pray will go away" she says to me while taking a drink.

"What is it mum," I asked her and she inhaled deeply and a little bit of fear was beginning to creep into me as I thought what sort of thing SL could make my mum, a great Luna like she was sad?

I stepped to her front and she looked down like she was shy to welcome my presence with her sight.

I held her shoulder with my left hand and raised her chin with my left hand only to find her eyes watered with tears and that hit me hard to discover.

Seeing her crying was something I felt I will never see even when I have my kids but she was actually crying.

I did not know if I should get annoyed for some reason or if I should try to understand what was making my mother this broken.

"Xavier! You are all I have got left and I wish all the best for you" she says using her hand to shift me to her left as my father's beta worked towards her.

I greeted him and he acknowledged me as he took a kneeling position in front of her with a golden designed tray which had two silver-colored hand gloves and she put it on.

At this point, I wanted to ask her why her eyes kept being wet with tears because of the number of times she had done that today whenever she looked at me.

The drums sounded so loud in the silent chambers.

"Boom!... Boom!... Boom!" at three internals and it continued as so and she began to walk towards where I stood together with Allison by the right-hand side who carried an unusual smile.

It was then I remembered a story my mum always told me as my bedtime story when I was much younger.

"They once lived a prince who never knew he was cursed to sleep a thousand years and to wake up with the memories he had worn away in time, even so, he was blessed with magical gifts of fire and ice."

"He lived so happily with everyone but he never knew that in the happiness of everyone around him was the saddest experience they could ever have and feel."

"The prince soon discovered why his mother... The queen always cried whenever she looked at him... It was not because she disliked him but because he was cursed to be consumed by the powers he had and on his eighteenth birthday which he was supposed to be crowned king... To never be known as a ruling king of the people who loved him so dearly."

"It was then that he broke in tears as well, he understood the sadness the queen must have felt for the years he grew before her very own eyes and the pain that she felt as she was to crown and lose him at the same time"
