Alpha Clause and Fay stood up from the couch as Selene and Thomas came to stand in front of them.
"Hello Alpha Clause, we are delighted to have you as our Fay's mate." Thomas said with a grin on his face as he looked from Fay to Alpha Clause. He stretched out his hand to Alpha Clause. The Alpha let go of Fay's hand to shake her dad's hand.
"Hello, it is my utmost pleasure to be Fay's mate." He replied with a small smile.
"Do you plan on taking her with you tonight?" Thomas asked since it was in their tradition for the male to take his mate back to his home at the time they meet.
"Yes, we will be going right after greeting you." He answered as his gaze went to Fay who was watching their interaction along with Selene before it went back to Thomas.
"Very well, you should know that Fay is a Queen and you should treat her that way." Thomas said as Selene took hold of Fay's wrist and led her out of the living room.
"Yes, I understand, Sir." She heard Alphas Clause answer her dad as they stepped out of the living room.
Selene let go of her wrist and faced her, "Fay, I want to talk to you about being with your mate. I know we have had this talk many times before, but there are still some things I haven't told you about."
"Yeah, I know. I didn't know that the pull towards your mate is so strong."
"Yes, I didn't tell you that either. The need to mate with your mate is just as strong and I'm sure that you can feel it too. Alpha Clause should be feeling it stronger than you since he is a Lycan." Selene explained.
"But should we follow our wolves and mate right away?"
"Yes, it is highly encouraged to do that as soon as you meet your mate, right after the personal mating ceremony. This is because you will let everyone know that they are yours once you mark and mate them." Selene answered Fay just as Alpha Clause walked out of the living room followed by Thomas, bringing their talk to an end.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of Fay." Alpha Clause said as he looked between Thomas and Selene.
They both smiled and Thomas said, "We trust that you will, Alpha. Come visit us anytime soon."
As Thomas said the last part, he glanced at Fay then looked back at Alpha Clause. "Yes, we will."
"And hopefully with new pups about to come." Selene added with a chuckle, Thomas chuckled with her as Fay blushed and Alpha Clause smiled.
Fay turned to her mom and dad, "I will miss you two, good night. I will call you first in the morning."
Thomas wrapped her up in a bear hug and pulled back, "Okay, we're going to miss you too, Fay."
Selene hugged her too then released her, "Good night, sweetie. I'll be waiting for your call tomorrow. Have a safe journey."
Fay nodded with a small smile and both Selene and Thomas looked to Alpha Clause. They didn't meet his eyes since he was still their Alpha, "Good night, Alpha."
"Good night, it was wonderful meeting you." Alpha Clause replied as Fay moved closer to stand beside him.
Thomas and Selene nodded as he turned around and opened the door. He walked out of the door with Fay beside him to the limo. She glimpsed back at her parents to see them standing at the door, watching them. They waved at her and she raised her hand and waved at them too. She smiled wider and turned back around just as they reached the limo.
Alpha Clause opened the door and held it open for her and she climbed in. He climbed in next to her and shut the door. The driver started the car to High Valley as she looked out the window, getting lost in her thoughts. High Valley was the area Alpha Clause lived which was still in their town as Alpha Clause was their part of the land's Alpha.
Their lands were divided into four parts; The South, West, East and North. Each had their Alpha, South was ruled by Alpha Sloan, West was ruled by Alpha Wyatt, North was ruled by Alpha Nathan, East was ruled by Alpha Clause. Alpha Mason was the leader of The Five so he maintained the peace and order of the land, and made sure everything was under control.
The Five ruled their lands because they were the only remaining heirs of the First Lycans except for Alpha Ross who went Rogue. Werewolves were originally made from Lycans who were the more powerful and superior form of werewolves. The Lycans used to mate amongst themselves until some of them started finding their mates among humans. They gave birth to Lycans and werewolves.
The Lycans have more Lycan blood in them and are more powerful than the werewolves. The werewolves are less powerful lycans because of the higher amount of human blood that flows through them. When Lycans mate with werewolves, they can give birth to Lycans and werewolves depending on how much Lycan blood flows through them. When two werewolves mate, they give birth to only werewolves.
Children between werewolves and humans are either werewolves or humans, also depending on the amount of Lycan blood in them. Fay's parents were both werewolves, so she was only a werewolf, but since her mate was a Lycan, that meant she was a born leader, Luna. The mate of Alphas are called Luna as they lead their packs alongside them.
Alpha Clause's parents were both Lycans as she heard while growing up, unlike the other four Alphas that were from Lycan and werewolf parents. That meant he was stronger and more powerful than them, but why wasn't he the leader of The Five? Fay has always wondered about that, maybe it was because Alpha Mason was older or Alpha Clause grew up in High Valley and didn't want to leave there? Now that she was his mate, she could ask him and put an end to her curiosity.
