Alpha Princess's Possessive Mate

Chapter 142 - Eventful Life

"I somehow always count on you Sam," I responded with a smile and his grin widened on his face and back straightened as if he was proud about that fact.

I truly could count on Sam with matters like these. Even during my injuries, I was able to tell Sam comfortably that I was already healed and would be pretending, which he wholeheartedly supported. I would have been doubtful of him if he had ever acted against it, but he rather went out of his way to remind me of it when I had forgotten to act it out. It almost made me cry remembering how worst it was back at the castle when Dandeline was busy and I was left to my ownself. 

Sam leaned ahead and pulled in a hug without warning. He must have seen the tears that I was trying to drink back. "You know you can always count on me and even others. That is what friends are for. Don't worry, I won't tell your secret to be known even in my dying breaths."

My eyes widened at his words. How pure can one simple friendship be? "Hey don't go around talking about your death. You are one of the few important people for the entire pack. What will we do without our mommy?"

"Haha, very funny," Sam ridiculed as he left the hug and I chuckled at my own stupid joke. "Why do you even try? I already told you, you have lame jokes, Selene."

I stuck my tongue out and shrugged, "Whatever mama."

Sam huff a laugh before rolling his eyes and getting up from his chair. "I should get going now, you should probably burn that piece of paper," he said, pointing at the paper that I had tightly gripped between my fingers. 

"Yes I will," I got up with him and eyes the paper before slipping it back in my pocket. I will even burn the residual ashes of this troublesome small white sheet. Sam smiled at me in goodbye, but before he could say it I asked him, "By the way, how are things with Arina?" I raised my eyebrows teasingly, satiating my curiosity. 

"Amazing, I couldn't have asked for any better," Sam was not even a bit shy about admitting it. Rather, he was excited with stars in his eyes, "I will mark her today itself and ask Channing to officially proclaim us as couples a day after tomorrow."

That was the thing an Alpha did. We werewolves never had an official marriage. The sealing of the bond was enough.

The Alpha then proceeds with introducing the couples as husband and wife in front of the village. It was equivalent to marriage. There were some rich brats who would love to do the marriage, so churches were built in some parts of the capital city. There also existed some agencies to create a destination theme wedding by the river or the opera house. I would have my marriage would be in the castle where only royals wed. That was one of the parts I was looking forwards to apart from leaving Adalolpha.

"Why not tomorrow?" I asked Sam, confused. There was no reason for him to wait he was going to mark Arina today itself. 

"It's Channing's birthday tomorrow!" Sam almost shouted at the fact that I had forgotten it. Channing did mention it today when he was introducing himself to Dandeline as she was a new member of the pack. "We want only him to be the highlight of the day tomorrow," Sam added with a solemn expression. 

How thoughtful was that on their part. Arina and Sam would be postponing them being declared couples by a day just for Channing to have an entire day, specially for himself.

"I almost forgot it was his birthday," I admitted, as my thoughts started rushing through all the possibilities of gifts that I could get for Channing. "Where will it be celebrated?" I asked. It won't be lame I suppose it was the birthday of the Alpha after all. 

Sam tapped at the bottom of his jaw and hummed in thought. "Probably gym as it is an exclusive place for us pack members," he responded, unsure about the destination. 

"We should decorate it after the morning's training," I was quick to approve of that idea.

If his birthday had not slipped from my mind, I would have never put up the first practice session of people's special abilities tomorrow. It was late now I just had to rush through the listing part tomorrow and we could skip the practice for the next day. 

"You bet we should," Sam agreed excitedly. I could see he was already going through what kinds of decoration he would be adding. "I will arrange everything and also get Suzan and Arina on the plan quickly," he cracked his knuckles nervously, all the anxious adrenaline rushing coursing through his body. 

"I bet Suzan would be excited from the moment she knows," I giggled at the thought of her excitement.

I bet she would scream and it would be heard from the residential complex till my house that was on the outskirts of the village. Sam shook my hand and quickly darted out, "We will get to it immediately. Thanks for reminding me about the decorations."

I snickered, watching him run out of my house in a hurry and almost stumble at the stairs. "Be careful on your way," I shouted to him and he waved his hands over his bike and sped off to the village.

When he was gone, I shut the door behind him and pulled the crumpled piece of paper from my jeans pocket. 

My eyes went through the shabbily written contents- Here is my vote for you darling, so next when we meet I can crush you in a fair fight, without any rules. After all, it would be fun to win against the new Beta as well as a Warchild. Best luck, Selene Warchild, I know your little secret here and I hope a nice blood-chilling fight between us seals my lips. ~ Love your favourite opponent Hailey.

My fist clenched, the note crumpling it again. I rushed to the kitchen, finding a match box and lighting the paper on fire. My eyes did not move from it till the last bit of it was turned into ashes. 

The last thing I wanted was for my secret to leak out. I hoped she did not leave the prison soon enough because I did not want to unnecessarily fight that crazy woman. The fight without rules was sure going to be bloody and I might end up with severe injuries. I was grateful that it was only Sam who had found out the note, else this would have been troublesome I wondered how did Hailey found out I was a Warchild.

Luckily, she did not find out I was a princess and as for Sam, I know he won't go around spying and checking which village my Warchild blood belonged to. 

If Hailey wanted a fight, I would surely give her a good one. But before that, I had to train as she was a formidable opponent. Her unethical ways of fighting made it tough to think that I would survive her next strike. What a stupidly eventful life I have here outside the castle walls.
