Chapter One
~Legend's POV~
"So tell me why you are not excited about your father's birthday?" Gael, my best friend and Beta's son, said and I exhaled deeply.
"It is not that I am not excited about it. Heck, I am so happy that he is aging fast and I will become the Alpha King but my wolf has been feeling jittery which is making me look stressed than usual." I explained to him and pinched the bridge of my nose. But instead this fool took it as a joke and grinned like a dummy. I snickered at him in annoyance and almost rolled my eyes at him.
I can't. As per my father's word, I am the Alpha Prince and I am supposed to act respectable in front of the entire werewolf world but I don't think that's how I behave according to the rumors going round in the palace. Yes, the rumors are about me but I don't give a fvck. I make the rules and call the shots.
Okay, yeah, not yet but soon enough.
"Am I good?" I asked as I looked at myself in the large mirror before me. Gael looked at me with admiration and smiled.
Dummy.
"You look so handsome and regal." He said with a flattering voice. I scoffed and hit him on the forehead.
"Ouch." He faked a wince.
"Shut up, you sound like a dummy." I said to him and picked my wristwatch and wore it. I had told the maids not to bother dressing me. Well, I don't like it anyways. I know if my father hears a word of it, he is going to make a fuss about it. Like being the Alpha Prince and all royal stuffs I don't care about.
I dusted the tuxedo suit and cast a last look at myself. I winked at the mirror and I heard Gael stifle a laugh.
What am I going to do with him?!
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Who's there?" Gael said, more like yelling.
"Alpha Prince Legend, your presence is being requested by the Alpha King and Luna Queen." A tiny feminine voice said.
"On our way." Gael replied and she scurried off just like that.
"Are you ready?" I asked him and he gave me a pointed look.
"I should be the one asking you that question since you are the one who will be giving off the impression of the good Alpha Prince." He said and I narrowed my eyes at him.
"And I guess you will be giving off the impression of the bad Beta's son." I teased him. He glared at me playfully.
"You don't need to think about how my father reprimands me. I am a good and obedient guy." He said, adjusting his suit and I almost splash the water I was about to drink. He snorted and looked away. I dropped the cup and started for the door. He followed behind me and we exited the room.
Then we saw my father's adviser, marching towards us with her heels clicking the floor.
"Oh, Legend. I was about to come and get you. It's time for us to make the appearance." She said with a warm smile. I nodded my head and walked alongside with her.
We got to the passage and saw my parents standing so close to each other. My father was whispering some things into my mother's ear and she was giggling.
Does love truly exist like theirs?
