(Author’s POV)
"Brave’s wolf has woken up? How did that happen?" Maximus Corbin asked, he was thrilled to know that.
Noah and Sara exchanged glances with each other and then looked at them as Sara said, "This was the very reason we called for an urgent meeting. When the attack happened, Nora and her friend were taking a walk outside the mansion and that’s when they found Brave. Elder Clement, do you remember about the rare black opal you told us from the legend ..... we somehow managed to find it and Brave was wearing it as a pendant but his wolf didn’t respond even after that."
Clement face stayed neutral while Maximus questioned, "It didn’t work? Then how did his wolf even wake up?"
There was a brief moment of silence as neither Noah nor Sara uttered any word. This was part where it would get tricky to explain and they knew very well how both of the elders would react.
Noah started, "About that pendant, when Nora’s friend held it, the gemstone imploded and that’s when his wolf, Raw woke up from his deep slumber. But~ .... But as soon as he came to consciousness, he said something unusual," Noah paused and continued further, "He called Nora’s friend ... his mate."
Maximus eyes lit up as he got overly excited and muttered, "That’s great news Lycan King Noah. Princess’s friend is young Alpha’s second chance mate and now with his wolf woken up, he can resume his heir apparent duties without any hitch."
Out of all the Everests siblings, Maximus wanted Brave as the next Lycan King. After all, Brave has been groomed and taught since childhood and he knew the duties and responsibilities of becoming a Lycan King well enough. So, when he heard Noah’s words, he couldn’t contain his excitement and happiness and blurred his internal feelings out.
Though, Noah didn’t like his suggestion. It was not that he didn’t wanted Brave as his heir but whether Brave himself wanted the title or not. And also, now that Alaric was named his successor, he didn’t want to take this opportunity away from his other son to prove himself.
Although, Alaric was notorious for his coldness and ruthlessness, he too deserved a chance. Noah knew very well what Alaric was capable of. He is the designated COO of Everests group and has done extremely well.
And then there was Dion, Elio and now even Nora. All of them were potential candidates for the next heir. He wanted to be fair to everyone.
Sara felt the same way. Both the husband and wife were on the same page.
Clement who had been silent up until now mumbled loud enough, with a sour face, "Princess’s friend? Is she that one, that famous goddess daughter you adopted?" He asked, his words sharp.
