The Forgotten Princess & her Beta Mates

Dallas' p.o.v.

"Did you see the dress code for the Ceremony?" Jesper asks, while turning it towards Joshua.

"No, I didn't. I don't need to know, because I will be wearing my uniform." I reply as I sit down behind my desk.

Usually the dress code for an Alpha and/or Luna Ceremony is similar, you show up in the colors of your Pack. In some cases they just ask you to wear something with your Pack's emblem on it, for men that usually means a tie with the emblem on it and most women wear a brooch or scarf with the emblem on it.

"No dress code, as long as there is a hint of bright pink." Jesper says and I roll my eyes at the disrespect Lucy shows to our traditions.

"Let's just get this started, before we get called away for another mission." I mumble, not looking forward to the paperwork this involves.

We start with the forms for the Alpha Ceremony, most of the information we have to fill out is easy. It is when we come to the reason for the cancellation that we have to be thoughtful, because if we formulate this incorrectly, it will sound as a challenge towards Alpha Leon.

"The reason for cancelling the Alpha Ceremony is breaking their Pack-law." I state and both Joshua and Jesper look at me for some answers.

I pull up the information the Elders have on Shadow Valley Pack and I let Joshua and Jesper read it.

"You knew this without having to look it up?" Joshua asks and I just nod my head, there is nothing else to say.

"I didn't know until I got here, but I also found out that Pack-laws have to be accessible for all Pack-members. Each Pack has to put it into the education of their children, so that no one can say that they didn't know that they were breaking Pack-laws.

Alpha Leon has admitted reports to the Elders on every child in his Pack that took the class and their grade for that class, but I know that it was never a part of our education." I state.

Joshua is writing down the reason for cancellation, while Jesper gets the forms for the Luna Ceremony and he starts filling out the information he has.

Once we have filled out all the forms for the cancellation, we start on the forms for a trial and I check the schedule to find a date that will give me some time to prepare, after I have cancelled both Ceremonies.

"Why not chose a date closer to the cancellation?" Jesper asks. "We have all the evidence we need."

"No, we don't. There are still a few things I need answers to and I hope to have found them all by the time the trial starts." I answer him.

"How can we help?" He asks and I hand him the list of questions I wrote on my way over here, most already have an answer. It is the ones without an answer that I need their help with.

"We'll take this one and I suggest that you talk to Elder Jensen about this question." Jesper says and I look at the list to see which one Elder Jensen might be able to help me with.

It is a question that I found after starting my studies, it was something one of my classmates had said and it had stuck with me ever since.

I decide to take Jesper advice and go to talk to Elder Jensen, hoping that he can help me out a little bit. Maybe he even has the answer to my question and it will be one more question I can cross off my list, one step closer to find out the truth.

I find Elder Jensen in his office and I close the door behind me, before I walk over to the couch.

"What can I help you with, Dallas?" Elder Jensen asks and I take a moment to gather my courage to ask my question.

"Can you tell me the difference between a Wolf and a Lycan? I was never educated on that subject, but we both know that I am a Lycan and that my Father lied to me. I need to know those differences and particularly about the bond between parents and their children." I manage to say.

It still hurts to know that my Father lied to me, I grew up believing that my Mother was an Omega Wolf. My time here with the Elders has shown me that he lied about a lot more than just my Mother being a Wolf.

"There is a lot on that subject and we will be here for a few weeks if I have to tell you all of it myself. I will get you a book from my personal library, it deals with all the differences between Wolves and Lycans and it will provide you with all the answers you need." Elder Jensen says.noveldrama

I accept his offer, it will be easier to read a book than to ask all the questions that are running through my mind.

"Come to my office in the main building in the morning, I will have it ready for you." He says, before I walk out of the office.

There is an office for the Elders in each building, just in case they want to work in peace or if a Squad member has asked for a meeting. Their main office is in the main building though, but I have never been in there before and I am actually curious about that office.

I head back up to my room and I lie down on my bed, just staring up at the ceiling.

I clear my mind of any thoughts, I need some time without so many questions running through my mind.

Closing my eyes, I take a deep breath and slowly exhale. I keep repeating this until I feel my body becoming heavy and I just lay there without anything running through my mind, I always love this feeling.

The only downside to this state is that I always manage to fall asleep and today isn't an exception, I slowly drift off the sleep with an empty mind.

Loud knocking on my door wakes me and I jump of the bed to open the door, just to see one of my Squad members standing there.

"Sorry to wake you, Captain. Joshua send me to get you for dinner." She says, before slightly bowing her head.

Dang, I slept a lot longer than I normally do.
