Chapter 113

***Chastity***

Shopping with Rowen had been a lot of fun. Yes technically we’re both adults, but it was fun to act like pups sometimes. I still couldn’t believe he bought me those dolls. I wasn’t sure where I was going to up them though. I guess i would have to figure it out later. We had just put in our drink order when Robert, and Beth arrived. After greeting each other, they sat across from us.

“What did you two do this morning?” Beth asked after putting in their drink order.

“I took Rowen to the comic book shop down the street.” I answered.

“Danny’s place?” Robert questioned.

“Yes.” I said with a smile.

“I love that place. I get a lot of my Star Wars stuff from him.” Robert said excitedly.

“He, Blake, and Darren go whenever they get a chance.” Beth said with a giggle.

“You like Star Wars?” I questioned.

“Please, please don’t get him started.” Beth pleaded, making me giggle.

“Yes I do. Very much. Have you seen any of them?” Robert asked, eyeing gleaming.

“No.” I responded.

“You really need to. They are the greatest movies. making me giggle.

“We need a shop like that is Moonlight.” I stated.

Robert started excitedly, but Beth stopped him

“Talk to Danny about it the next time you’re there.” Robert suggested.

“He wouldn’t want to move.” I stated confused.

“No he wouldn’t, but maybe he’d be interested in opening a second shop, and finding someone in your pack to run it.” Robert stated.

“That can be done?” I questioned.

“Sure. They do that in the human world. I’m sure we wolves can do something like that too. We do a lot of pack trading, and such already.” Rowen stated.

“That’s true.” I stated.

“Talk to him about it the next time you’re there Chas. If he’s interested tell him to come talk to me. Rowen, and I can look into making it work.” Robert advised, and I nodded.

When the waiter returned with our drinks, we placed our food orders.

“So I got your email this morning, Rowen.” Robert stated.

“And?” Rowen questioned.

“You know we have to run our own back grounds checks for security purposes, but as long as everything checks out, we should be good.”

“If you need a few more, just let me know.”

“There is a chance I might, but I’m not completely sure yet.”

“More responses than you expected?”

“No. That’s not it.”

“Was there some kind of threat?”

“No. Nothing like that. I got a call this morning. The King, Queen, Prince, and his mate are coming.”

My eyes widened, and I felt like my jaw hit the floor. I glanced over at Rowen to see him in pretty much the same state. Robert, and Beth were both nodding.

“I had the same reaction.” Robert admitted.

“Do you know why they’ve decided to come to this?” Rowen questioned after the shock wore off.

“From what I’m told, since it is the first mate ball held in so many years, the king wants to do his part to make sure it goes well. I think he also wants to observe how his people behave in a large group like this.”

I guess that makes sense.”

“Do….do you think they are going to attend all of them moving forward?” I asked.

“I’m not sure honestly. I guess time will tell.” Robert answered.

“Will he be bringing his own warriors as well?” Rowen questioned.

“I’m sure he will. He told me that he would send me a head count of how many people will be in his party in about a week.”

“Alright. Well let me know, and if you need more warriors for the weekend I’ll do what I can to make it happen.”

“Great. I really appreciate it.”

“Where will they be staying?” I asked.

“That’s the fun part.” Beth answered with a small giggle.

“How so?” I questioned, feeling confused.

“They’re staying at the pack house. When I told Clair this morning she got really excited, but then she completely freaked out. Suddenly the whole pack house needs a complete make over. Jeremy had a calm her down. I have never seen her like that before.” Beth explained.

“Oh dear. That doesn’t sound good.”

“Oh no. It is. She is over the moon happy to have them here, and staying in our pack house, but she’s so worried about making a good impression that she was scouring her Luna bible for how to handle royal visits.”

“Have they never been here before? I thought the Alpha meetings were rotated to a different pack every year?”

“It is, and she forgot they were just here 5 years ago.”

“So she’s worried about nothing, basically?”

“Pretty much, but that’s mom.” Robert said with a chuckle.

“I don’t know. I’d probably feel the same way in her shoes.” I admitted with a shrug.

“Why? They’re not here to see how the pack house looks. They’re here to see how the ball goes.” Rowen stated sounding confused, and I shook my head.

“You wouldn’t get it. It’s a female thing.”

“I’ll take your word for it.”

“How long are they staying?”

“They’ll get here the Friday the before, and leave Monday.” Robert answered.

“How many additional warriors do you think you’ll need?” Rowen asked.

“I’m not sure yet. The king’s assistant said they will be bringing their own contingent of warriors with them. I’m just waiting on a head count.”

“Well just let me know as soon as possible.”

“I definitely will.”

“Do you guys need any help getting the pack house ready?” I asked.

“I’m not sure yet. I know Clair plans to start going through all of the guest rooms, and everything than make some decisions. I’ll let you know as soon as I know.” Beth stated.

“Ok. I’ll do what I can to help.”

“Just don’t over extend yourself. You’re getting into the harder classes now, right?”

“Yes. I can’t promise I’ll be a lot of help, but I’ll do what I can.”

“Thank you. I’ll let Clair know.”

“Have decisions been made on where everyone will be staying for the weekend?” Rowen asked.

“After reviewing everything, and the potential head counts, we don’t have the space needed for everyone. There are several, large human hotels about an hour from here. We’ve sent all of the packs the hotel information.” Robert answered.

“How are they going to explain such large groups of people staying in those hotels, and leaving for hours. on end?” I questioned.

“The same it’s explained whenever we have Alpha meetings at smaller packs. Humans have what they call conventions, and stuff like that. I guess our gatherings can be called the same thing.” Robert answered.

“But couldn’t that draw attention to us?”
