Chapter 3
Cruz's POV
"Ashi's on her way," I told my Dad, Eric. "I don't understand what's happening, Dad."
I was with my Dad on a pack meeting when Dad received a message from the enchantress through the mind link.
He's the Beta. Every concern comes to him.
Today was the Mapping where the She-Wolves who reached the age of eighteen will know where their mate is from.
Something goes wrong with Ashira's mapping process. That's what I was sure of and we immediately drove home once Dad received the news.
"Let's wait for Ashira. She must be looking for answers, as well. Once she's home, we'll talk."
My Dad said and he entered the door to his study. My mom, Ophelia, followed right after.
I'm the only child of Regal pack's Beta. Alpha David's son, Victor, will take over the pack in a few weeks. He'll be given the Alpha title once his 21st birthday comes. The same goes for me to be entitled with the Beta position.
I heard a loud thud of paws getting near. My sense of smell tells me it was Ashira in her wolf form.
I ran towards the back door. She must be frustrated to know something that she shifted! I took a robe hanging as I'm on my way out.
Ashira's white wolf stopped in front of me. Her emerald eyes looked at me and I almost forgot that we need to talk to Dad about something. Her wolf is really beautiful, though. She's not my blood sister but I treat her like one most of the times when she's not irritating, I guess.
I prepare the robe and held it wide with both hands. I made sure that the robe will conceal Ashira's naked body from my eyes once she shifts back.
'Close your eyes' her wolf said to me through our mind link. I rolled my eyes before following her bossy command.
Like hell, I'll like to see that, I thought.
I felt her grabbing the robe from my hands. A few seconds later, I opened my eyes, and Ashira is completely wrapped with the robe.
"What happened?" I asked.
Ashira walked past me, her breathing is uneven from running. She walked inside the house, heading towards Dad's office.
"I don't know. Something went wrong with my mapping. I'm yet aware of what that means."
I followed her as we walked inside our Dad's study room.
Eric is already seated on his chair, holding an old book. My mother standing beside him. My Dad looked at us and my mother rushed to Ash and held my sister in her arms.
"Everything will be alright," Ophelia assures Ashira. Ash just nodded and looked at my Dad again.
"The Enchantress called me a 'stealer'." She said to my father. I can hear her voice shaking but she sounded more confused than scared.
"She can't be wrong. You might be." My Dad said as he took a deep breath.
"What does that mean? The way she said that to me sounds like I'm a danger."
We took a sit in front of father. I was just listening to the conversation, trying to understand every bits of it.
"It's not like that. You're not dangerous, Ash. Being a stealer means," Eric paused for a second as he wait for my Mom to get near him. Once she wrapped her arms around Dad, he continued. "You're able to produce a pup with anyone, mate or not."
My eyes widened by surprise. That's rare! No, that's new!
I haven't even learned something about that. A wolf is destined with one mate. Only one. We can only have a child to that fated person, so hearing this makes me confuse as hell!
I decided to speak when Ash was stunned and unable to utter any words. "Does that mean she can have more than one mate?"
Ashira is eighteen years old and the main reason why she can participate in the mapping ceremony.
With her age, she'll be able to feel the mate bond once she met the one but as per my Dad's words, does it mean that Ashira is able to feel the mate bond with every male?
Whoa.
"No. Of course not! Her mate is only one, just like the others. That is too special to share." Eric held Ophelia's hand as he said that.
"I heard a 'but," Ashira stated, sounding a little more calm than earlier.
Maybe the thought that everyone won't fight over her because of her failure-mate bond is making her less worried.
"They will smell it on you." Sabi ni Eric kay Ashi. "Those wolves who's lost their mates will recognize you as a 'stealer'. Once they do, they'll bend everything to get you."
"Only those males who lost their mate?" I asked and he nodded.
My mom's hand moved to rub on my father's back. I just noticed how my father is shaking. His wolf is getting angry from the thought.
"B-But why? I-I'm confused.." Ashira asked.
