“We first want to thank Alpha King Reginald and Luna Queen Anne and their son Prince Alexander for joining us this week for Elite Warrior trials. It
truly is an honor to be a host pack and I know all of our young trainees have had an amazing time with your warriors. I know they are all excited to their new knowledge to use. It was also nice to have some friendly neighboring pack training, everyone involved learned a great deal and I wish you all luck in your placements with the Elite Warriors.” A polite amount of clapping follows.
Alpha Reggie follows up with congratulations to all who participated in the trials, stating his trainers have been left with some tough decisions to make. ”
We are also excited to see the young leaders at the training grounds here in a few weeks. Now that I have seen how much they have grown and wha
they are capable of here on their home turf, I can’t wait to see them challenged again this summer. I may have to rethink some of our strategies
seeing your young warriors train.” He chuckles and everyone else follows suit before Alpha Lucas finishes.
“We are here to not only celebrate the end of the trials and their success, we are celebrating the end of the year, with many of our graduating pack
members moving onto great and successful careers and our own future leaders heading into the next phase of their training. With their departure
following the mating ball next weekend we want to wish them well and good luck on their journey this summer. And from the sounds of it, they will
need all the luck they can get.” More laughter follows. “Please eat and enjoy yourselves, our pack has much to be thankful for.”
With that, both Alphas sit down and look, relieved maybe, that the formalities are all over. I look around at the crowd milling about. This is what I
imagine parties for the guys to be like, people crawling everywhere, standing room only and a constant humm of conversation. The buzz is almost
palpable.
It’s a weird sensation and I find myself smiling again for no reason other than I’m included this time.
“Sky, come sit with us.” Luna Ava calls me over. “We are all dying to hear about the trials. I was so excited to see your wolf out, she is so beautiful an
she has definitely gotten stronger since the last time I saw her.”
I moved into the chair she offered me and just smiled at the compliment. I didn’t know what else to say.
My wolf is just purring in my head at being called beautiful and strong. “She has grown since I’ve gotten her. I wasn’t sure if that was normal, or if she
still needs to grow since I got her so early. I have meant to ask Doc T in anatomy or maybe Mr. Lyons in history what they think.”
“T don’t know if I have ever heard of a wolf growing after they show up, but maybe you’re right, you got her very young. You are going to be a force
when you are fully trained, based on what I have seen over the last two days.” Alpha Reggie says.
I just smile again. I don’t really know what to do with all of these compliments. Before I have to really come up with anything though, a plate is placed
in front of me and Kota kisses the side of my head before sitting down next to me. Another plate is placed next to that and Cam kisses the other side
of my head then moves to sit across from me. I I look to my left. “Dakota, what is all of this?” I figure I would make a point of naming them while they
are on this social experiment thing.
“We didn’t think you would ever get a chance to eat, so we brought a little of all of your favorites.” Then he looks at his brother. “She’s still the only
one.”
Cam says across from me.
“Only one, what?” Luna Ava asks with an eyebrow raised.
“She’s the only person who can tell us apart, when we look exactly the same, don’t speak and give no hints.”
Kota Says.
“She’s the first person to call us by name since we came downstairs dressed the same. It’s actually kind of funny.” Cam adds.
“You can tell them apart like this?” Luna Ava looks impressed, gesturing to the twins. “Even I have trouble sometimes. Especially when they are
purposely trying to be difficult.”
“Yes. I can’t believe you two are still on this topic, but to be fair there are a bunch of things that set them apart, if people pay attention. I keep telling
them that. And thank you for the food, I am starving.” I say, becoming a little annoyed that they don’t believe me.
