Chapter 45: *”Sub clause?”*

*The pups seem a little excited about what I am.” Officer Terrawing said to Alpha Andrew, amused by their reactions to him. “One looks as if she wants to study me, another looks as if she’s fighting with herself internally, and the other is trying to fight his instincts.”

The three he mentioned, Alora, Serenity, and Darien in that order, froze with stunned expressions on their faces. The wide–eyed looks the Dragon Master received from the three pups greatly amused him. Officer Terrawing loved being around younglings of all kinds, he always found their varied reactions to him amusing.

Alpha Andrew saw how amused the Dragon Master was and smiled. “I take it pups amuse you?”

“Younglings of all kinds amuse me. It has been a few centuries since my mates and have had a hatchling of our own. Sadly, even our eldest hatchling remains unmated, and we have no grand hatchlings to fawn over. Far too many Dragon Masters are going through the centuries without finding their mates as we have become too closely related to find our fated mates among our own kind. But my King is issuing an order and a change to our laws that gives me hope that all my hatchlings will soon be allowed to go out in the world and hopefully find their fated mates among the other beings of the world.” Officer Terrawing told him.

Alpha Andrew looked surprised. “Really, what about the Bloodpurists of the Dragon Master Council?”

“The King is no longer going to allow the Bloodpurists of the Dragon Master Council to prevent Dragon Masters from seeking their fated mates in other species. Before, the only reason the King allowed it was because the vast majority of Dragon Masters agreed with those Bloodpurists. Now with the majority of Dragon Masters four centuries and remaining mateless, they have changed their tune. Many a Dragon Master is tired of going through these long centuries alone, no mate, and no Hatchlings.” Officer Terrawing said, “The King’s order is being made official right now. Tomorrow you should start receiving requests for permission to enter your territory from Dragon Masters seeking their fated mates.”

Alpha Andrew’s expression was joyful, as was Luna Ember’s, this was an opportunity for many of their mateless Pack members to find their fated mates as well.

“This is wonderful news you bring us, we will welcome what Dragon Masters decide to start their search here.” Alpha Andrew said.

“That is good. My female said you were a great Alpha of Alpha’s and would welcome this news.” Officer Terrawing complemented.

“Your female?” Alpha Andrew asked.

“That is exactly what she thought, at first. She was snarling and barking, then she transformed, and we quickly realized the snarling and barking was her cursing and yelling at us for scaring her half to death and making her think she was about to become a midafternoon meal. Then she proceeded to yell at us that we were lucky she was a wolf and could scent that we were her mates, and would we please transform so we were no longer towering over her with hungry expressions on snouts that had way too many
