Alpha’s Surrogate by POOJA

emphasized that he was not in a position to make choices on this subject. Stephen had reason to bring

this topic up since the other elders were concerned that if they did

not invite the affluent and prominent pack, such as the Blue Moon Pack, that it would seem rude and

might harm their relationship.

“Whether it’s been two years or two hundred years, the Blue Moon Pack will never be included in our

pack at any of our events,” Xavier stated. Yes, the probation had been lifted and the treaty had been re-

established automatically, but the Blue Moon Pack had not dared to come before Xavier without his

permission. Who would dare to offend the Alpha? The elderly wolf’s gaze had been drawn to

Zander, who had already agreed with his brother’s decision.

“That’s fantastic! I was eager to hear that,”Stephen smiled proudly. He had been determined to voice his

displeasure if the Blue Moon Pack were to be invited. He had hoped for a smooth and pleasant marking

ceremony for his grandson. The old male walked away

since he had a busy schedule, but there was still tension amongst the males.

“As always, only the mention of them has f****d up my morning,” Zander hurled his body onto the sofa

once again. What an unexpected beginning of this day. Xavier remained silent as his gaze returned to

the television. The camera’s angle was completely off! She had only passed through the hall once, yet he

hadn’t been able to see her face! Dean was irritated, but Xavier’s lips curved into a grin.

She had agreed to sign the contract!

Xavier loved to drink, but it wasn’t until the night was over that he started to suffocate from the scent of it

early in the morning. After

down to the restroom, one by one, to wash away their exhaustion, the stink of alcohol, and perspiration.

Jenniter and Lena were aware of the bachelor party and had always outright barred their mates from

entering their room with the smell of alcohol on them.

The guys had already spent far too many hours in that office. Xavier had been the last to take a long

shower. The Alpha exited the washroom, knowing that his Beta was waiting for him in designer attire. His

clothing had been delivered to the pack house, but none of the ranked males had returned since a short

discussion with the elders needed to take place in the office building’s hall. But as it was

already afternoon, Xavier didn’t have much time to spare, so he requested Kaiden to bring his suit from

the office.

“The elders are waiting in the hall,” Tyler, who had already been assigned to the hall, said mind-linking to

both Alphas. During the

discussion, a brief disagreement between the two parties had taken a severe turn, which was connected

to the vampire’s violation of the

peace agreement.

Xavier became enraged and roared at all the males, even elders, who dared to argue in front of him.

Their wolves immediately lowered their heads and eyes. Their Alpha had already been disturbed by the

sensation he was experiencing as a result of the marking ritual he thought. His wolf had been restless

despite the fact that he was far away from the pack house. His gaze had been drawn to the

window, where he could just make out the outline of the building through the trees.

· “What’s wrong? You never yell at the elders,” Zander’s mind-linked to his sibling. The younger brother

had been watching Xavier’s mood swings from the for a long time. He wasn’t paying attention to the

meeting and kept gazing out at the pack house as if he longed to

be there.

“Nothing, just wrap this meeting up for me,” Xavier requested. He was perplexed by his own sudden

unpleasant and aggressive demeanor. Dean had been giving him hard time. The younger brother

instantly took control of the discussion, pacifying both sides, and announcing his decision. The eldest

brother nodded his head agreeing, and the meeting was over as soon as possible.

Even though it was growing late, the Alpha twins and their Beta and Gamma were still hard at work.

They needed to ensure the

pack’s security before returning to the pack house. During the marking ceremony, all of the pack

members would be occupied with the

guests, and the odds of a vampire attack were at an all-time high. del

When Xavier was returning to the Pack house a few hours later, his gaze was drawn to the young wolf

who’s handsome face was enough to aggravate the Alpha. He’d been assisting some of the guests by

opening their car doors. He’d put on a fake smile to greet

them, but it couldn’t fool the piercing green eyes of the Alpha. Cole’s always-smiling face had the

appearance of a wilted flower. His red

and puffy eyes were evidence that he hadn’t been able to sleep through the night. The black circles

under his eyes revealed a gloomy aspect to him. What had caused him to be so depressed? The Omega

was quick to notice the high-ranking males who had just passed by. Cole instantly lowered his head

when he felt Xavier’s gaze on him. The Omega hadn’t known what kind of look his Alpha had given him,

but it was clearly not positive. The younger Alpha had the same expression! Why had they given him

those looks?! In an instant, the

young wolf had chills!

As soon as the ranked males stepped into the pack house, everyone’s attention was drawn to the

beautiful decorations and lights. Xavier had entered the pack home the night before, it’s layout had

entirely changed. Every corner of it now sparkled in the light, making it a testament to everyone’s hard

effort and enthusiasm, as well as everyone’s happy smiles. Everyone was clamoring for a glimpse of the

Alpha. Xavier had simply been passing by them, when a strong aroma bothered him the moment he

entered the corridor.

“What type of fragrance is that?” Xavier instantly covered his nose with his hand. The fragrance was so

strong that it burnt his nose

since it had been dispersed so thickly in the air.

“Elder Stephen sent the Luna a lovely and unique perfume as a present, but sadly it fell a short way

outside of the Luna’s bedroom.

It’s been a half-hour since this incident occurred, yet its distinct odor is still lingering.” One of the pack

members recounted, recalling

Stephen’s rage and how the wolf who had made the mistake of dropping the perfume bottle was still

petrified of being punished.

“Open all the windows and assist this annoying perfume escape,” Xavier ordered. Yes, it was refreshing

and pleasant, but it was overkill! The odor was so overpowering that Xavier’s nose couldn’t even detect

Zander, who was standing right next to him, let alone the other wolf across from him. This perfume had

the ability to mask everyone’s scent. It was truly a one-of-a-kind gift, yet it was quite irritating. Why had

Grandfather felt the need to provide such a gift?

“But Alpha if we open the windows, then the decorations…” the same male began to speak but hastily

shut his mouth when he

“Do as you are told! Open the windows!” The Alpha growled. How dare he disobey his brother?! When it

comes to his brother, the

Alpha, who was usually cheerful and fun turned wicked and vengeful. The same goes to Xavier, who had

nearly skinned the bold wolf with

his eyes

whes Alpha,” said the Wolf. Everyone dashed around to open the windows Xavier approached the stairs

only to be stopped by

Jennifer and Lena

“Sorry Alpha, but we can’t allow you to pass, both females giggled in unison. Kiaden and Tyler’s gazes

were drawn to their mates,

who looked sexy in their tight outfits. Jennifer had been dressed in a gown that revealed her gorgeous

round belly. Kiaden mentally

grinned as he saw her in black. He’d already planned out his nighttime plan. Tyler’s gaze had become

fixated on Lena’s big boobs! She

was dressed in a low-cut blouse! His eyes were feasting, but wait! Tyler and Kaiden both shook their

heads. It was not the time to get caught up in lust. What were both of these she-wolves saying to the

Alpha? Keeping the Alpha from accessing his own room? If that was a joke, it was emphatically not

humorous. Both males gestured for their mates to move away and allow the Alpha to pass, but the

females

were stubbom.

“What are you two beautiful she-wolves up to?” Alpha Zander gave his beautiful Beta and Gamma

females his most handsome and

charming smile as he shoved both his hands inside his pockets and he leaned on the railing. He

succeeded in making them giggle and

blush again, but had to ignore the jealous wolves who were throwing daggers at him with their eyes. Had

he been flirting with their mates

right in front of their eyes?!

“The Alpha can’t see the Luna until she steps into the ceremonial hall, Alpha,” Jennifer explained and

Lena agreed.

“What?” Xavier frowned.

“Yes Alpha.”

“Who said that?!”

“According to our elders’ it is a centuries-old tradition and custom, the Alpha cannot see the Luna before

the marking ceremony or else it will be a bad omen,” Lena spoke a bit loudly to make sure everyone

heard.

Xavier chuckled darkly, stunned by what he was hearing. His aura was devilish! It had to have been his

Grandfather’s words, but at

the time of Petra and Xavier’s ceremony, the white-haired old wolf had been sitting in a corner,

motionless, like an object. On the one

hand, he lacked excitement, and on the other, he had not mentioned a single custom or tradition.

Perhaps it was partly because Petra hadn’t been able to contain her lust before the marking ceremony

and had appeared in Xavier’s

room an hour prior to the ceremony for wild sex. They had even met and had s*x. Their monas had

resonated through the packhouse,

everyone had been aware of it. Grandfather had remained silent at the time, but now the old male’s

attitude had changed! Stephen had

become terrified of a bad omen this time. He didn’t want a disruption at this marking ceremony under any

circumstances. It also

suggested that he didn’t fully trust his grandson’s assertion on taking a chosen mate.

Xavier had his fists balled up at his sides. He couldn’t go up to his room because of this custom. He

needed to make sure that the contract had been signed by Kiara, so he could calm Dean down since he

was dying to enter that room. Due to the fragrance of that perfume that was still lingering in the corridor,

Dean hadn’t been able to detect his little she-wolf, even though she was in his room, this

had made Dean more anxious.

“Fine,” Xavier took a step back as he exited the pack house. If he had wished to he could have entered

his room by eliminating

everyone in his path, but it was a question of traditions. If the Alpha broke the rule by abusing his

position, then a member of the pack would have a negative image of him.

There was just one option left now. He’d get the contract after the marking ceremony, which was in half

an hour.

“Oh my goddess! You are looking so stunning!!” Jennifer and Lena exclaimed as they walked inside

Kiara’s room. When they were dealing with the Alpha and their mates, They had left their soon to be

Luna alone with the makeup artist for half an hour. When they returned, Kiara had already been dolled

up with flawless makeup and a hairstyle that matched her bridal attire.

“Are you sure you are a werewolf and not a goddess?” Lena grinned, but Jennifer’s mouth remained

wide, still unable to believe that

rose from her seat, the young temale just smiled and blushed a little, since the makeup artist had already

left the room, leaving the Beta

and Gamma to tease their Luna even more.

“Please stop it. You are making me shy. It is just because this wedding gown is pretty,” Kiara stated,

attempting to brush both females who had been very enamored with her. She was already nervous about

her appearance because she had never been dressed so nicely in her life.

“Yes, the credit for your beauty does partly go to the wedding gown because it was chosen by the Alpha

for you,” Lena remarked,

noticing the small smile Kiara was attempting to conceal.

Another Sirius Bright Pack tradition was for the Alpha and Luna to pick each other’s wedding attire. Of

course, if they didn’t like it, they could wear something else, but the bridal gown that Xavier had picked

for Kiara was fit for a princess. She couldn’t fathom looking for another one when she had this one.

Wearing a wedding gown had been her dream that had been crushed when she had been engaged to

the Alpha who had been selected by her father. She wasn’t sure about the suit that she had picked for

Xavier.

She had picked a high end designer suit for him after seeing his collection of outfits in his closet, but she

had no clue if he would like

it or not. If the Alpha opted to wear something different, people could scoff at her. But she did not really

care what other people thought, it was his opinion that made her nervous. Venus had been quiet for a

long time, which seemed unusual. She had not talked to her

human for a while.

“Well, it’s time to join the ceremony. Let’s go,” Jennifer prompted. Kiara made her way to the door while

her Beta and Gamma

trailed after her, giving the young female the impression of a queen. Jennifer and Lena exchanged a look

when they realized that Kiara was walking as slowly as possible down the stairs. Every pack member

was there and Xavier too. Kiara’s hands and feet had grown

cold.

The she-wolf who had always been concealed in her old pack was clearly nervous. Most of the time, she

had been told to stay in her room and not come out in the presence of others unless absolutely

necessary. Yet today she was going to meet an entire pack officially. She was destined to be Xavier’s

Luna. It was enough for Kiara to lose control of her heart rate, which had been thumping erratically as

her steps drew closer to their destination. For a split second, she came to a halt and sought out Venus,

who had been acting strangely. What

was the matter with her wolf?

“Is there something wrong, Kiara?” Jennifer asked, puzzled.

“No,” Kiara responded while she resumed walking, realizing that the perfume that had diffused through

the pack house earlier had

totally dissipated. I had been replaced with a new aroma that had caught the attention of her heart. What

exactly was it? Kiara eventually proceeded to the bottom of the stairs, realizing that was the scent of

whiskey combined with something else that alarmed her

somehow.

“The Luna is here!” All of the people in the hall turned to look at the stairs to catch a glimpse of Kiara. It

was the first time that every

pack member had seen their new Luna, they were all astonished when they saw the beauty that their

Alpha had chosen. So young and

beautiful! Stephen returned his gaze to the door with a pleased smile where he sensed his grandson.

“The Alpha is also here!” The pack members squealed with delight. Xavier entered the ceremony hall at

the same time with his

brother and friends. The Alpha’s gaze was drawn to his female, whose eyes had been lowered as she

walked towards him. But when Kiara heard Xavier’s name she realized that the other fragrance that was

combined with whiskey was orange. She looked up to see the Alpha’s emerald eyes. He had already

been frozen in his spot.

“Mate!” Venus screamed in Kiara’s mind, scaring her. Her large chocolaty eyes had been locked with his

green ones. Kiara’s heart had

skipped a beat when she heard her wolf.

“Mate!” Dean roared once more in Xavier’s head as he recognized Kiara’s rose and chocolate aroma

from afar, wanting to storm into

the hall to see her. His eyes widened in disbelief.

Rose petals had been showered on the Alpha and Luna, who had not blinked their eyes once during this

unanticipated

discovery.

How was it possible that he had been given a second chance mate and she was none other than his

surrogate?
