From Princess To Queen
Chapter 18

Kelly Accepts

Xavior woke up kissing his mate on the cheek while she was still sleeping. He went to the bathroom to do his business and shower. When he finished, he dressed and had Dunken send breakfast for the three. Clara woke up while he was in the shower, and she watched him as he walked off the closet in sweats and a t-shirt.

“How long have you been awake, my mate?”

“Long enough to watch you dress.” Smiling from ear to ear.

He walks to her, kisses her, slaps her on the ass, and tells her to get up as Dunken will be here shortly with breakfast.

Xavior calls the alphas and lets them know what is happening and the plans to trap Felix and the king. The men and women he spoke with were all bored with the projects. They wanted to be kept in the loop on how Kelly was doing being the spy.

“We need to figure out how to get to Libby and get all this set up on her phones and vehicles as well.”

“I got it; we will bring in Kelly Carlson; she’s not mated and an excellent tracker.”

“I don’t know; she is very fond of the pack and her family, but she is a loner and doesn’t have many friends I know.”

Clara links Kelly to come into her room. They are friends and have been for a long time, but they are not best friends, as Kelly is happy to be alone.

“Princess, you asked for me to come?”

“Yes, I did, and what we are about to tell you are very top secret, and going to ask you to do a mission for us. You can turn it down; it will never be held against you.” Clara lets her know that Kelly has the option to refuse.

“Okay, please tell me what you wish me to do, and I will make an informed decision afterward.”

“Kelly, that is fair enough and all we ask of you. This is Xavior and Dunken, the true alpha and beta; the other is Felix portraying Xavior.”

“Okay, I am sorry, but I was not paying as much attention as I should have, and I apologize for that, alpha.”

“No, do not worry about I was at my pack doing pack business, then got the call that I surely cannot be in two places at once.”

Xavior chuckles.

“What are you needing, alpha and princess?”

“We want to send a spy into Libby’s camp of rogues undercover. This is where it will be tricky, so please hear us out before you ask us questions, okay?”

“Yes, sir, just lay it all on the table, and I will not judge. I may repeat to ensure I understand everything, then give you my decision.”

They all take a deep breath before going into their needs. They have everything written down so that they remember everything, and they can provide the paper to Kelly so she can look over it and put her personal touch on her background if she so chooses.

“We know you have round bottle green eyes and are pretty much a loner and like to keep to yourself, which is one reason why we chose you. We would like you to go into her camp as a rogue, set up cameras, and tap all Libby’s phones, including all her vehicles. If we could get this done there, we would have to go immediately after she visits the castle to visit the king. We are looking for information to help us take her over, including her pack, and kill off Felix all in one blow. Then we can handle the king himself.”

“Okay, I don’t understand what the king has to do with this. Sorry, I interrupted.”

“We will get to that. So here is what your rogue will be like. Loner, no friends, able to work for others, have a negative body image, weak as a human, but a wolf is immensely stronger than normal, possesses magic, and you would have died for your king and pack. But you got kicked out of Pack and Castle for not protecting the king or the princess.”

“Wow, that is a lot, but I can add what I want to this, right?”

“Yes, that is if you decide to take on the task. You will always be in constant contact with us, so you do not have to worry about not being off our limits. Try to get in good with Libby, gain her trust so she will let you go on missions with her, including bringing her back here so that we can do the work to her vehicles unless you want to try and do that yourself.”

“Let’s see, I can mask my scent, even change it to make myself stinky, I possess some magic, but not much I will have Mom teach me...ooo I can use that as an excuse to gain access to their camp. I want to practice magic, and you all exiled me because of it. I do not have to tell them I am from this pack but a different one, so that would make it easier to get in for a while, get the intel you need, and then move on.”

“Correct, but only if you want to do this; we know you are not mated; that is one reason why we pulled you and asked if you want the task.”

“What if I replace my mate while in the rogue camp? What should I do then?”

“You can accept him or her and fully become rogue, bring them back here, and we will explain everything but have to put him in the cells to make sure he does not run back blow your cover or our operations, or you can reject them and hope to get a better mate.”

She looks over the papers, reads them carefully once again, and starts coming up with a back story that would work exceptionally well with their plan.

“I’m in; when do you want to pack and go?”

“Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Yes, I am now; what does this have to do with this girl Libby and the king?”

“He’s doing something with Libby and the rogues and has visited them a lot, and she’s been here frequently as well. It will be my job to challenge him and overthrow him if he does not let me take over the throne within the next six months to a year. I will let him know this and see how it goes, then prepare myself for this battle. Now we know the battle against Felix will be epic, and we do not know when that will happen, and I am not sure if I want to take the thrown over before or after the fight with Felix.” Clara speaks up, giving her the low down on her father.

“I am truly sorry, princess; I do not have words to say right now. Clara, we are friends, and your father has kept you away from all the other kids in our pack.”

“It’s okay; I know the truth of who I am and have been secretly leaving this pack to train with my family, so it’s no biggie. Plus, I got these big brains here to help me train extra for what I need.”

The king and ‘Xavior’ return to the castle to do work, but ‘Xavior’ (Felix) excuses himself to return to Clara’s bedroom to make those phone calls that he was supposed to make. When he arrived, new guards were in place; he did not know why and must ask her when he walked in. But they stop him before he gets to the door.

“Where do you think you are going?” one of the guards said with a booming voice.

“Move, or I’ll break your neck, pup,” he yelled.

“Orders from the princess not to let anyone pass through to her room. If you kill my partner or me, you will be murdered on the spot. Would you like that, sir?”

Clara hears the commotion going on outside her door. She orders the guards to take Xavior to a different room four doors down from hers. It will be there; she will meet with him while her mate and Dunken return to her room for more meetings with Scott and Steven.

As he was walking towards the door, he entered as his phone rang. He looked down at the call, and he was pissed. He had to keep up the appearances as his mother disguised herself as him, aka Alpha Xavior but left and pushed him to be the one who is now hidden.

“What the hell do you want?” he exclaims angrily, forgetting that he was with Clara.

She keeps an eye on him and the conversation he is having, and he is being recorded so they can keep tabs on him and all the calls that go to him and his mother.

“What do you want? I told you not to call me. I am on a mission, damn it!”

“Alpha, I am sorry to interrupt your mission to gain the trust of the princess, but your mother is here with a guest; she is getting pissed because you are not at home.”

“Put that bitch on the phone now.”

“Where are you, darling?”

“Do not ‘darling’ me, you bitch; get the hell off my territory, or I will have my beta kill you now! Furthermore, it is none of your business what the fucking hell I do!”

“My, my, my, such a temper Felix. I would think twice about using that tone with me as you know what I can do to your entire pack if I want to.”

“Get out now!”

“Xavior, you will not speak in that tone in this castle. We have much to do now; sit down, and let us start.” Clara reprimands him in front of her guards.

He stood there looking at Clara, not realizing she was listening to his conversation once she scolded him. He huffs in rage, takes her by the throat, and squeezes it. Her guard sees this and pulls him off her, throwing him to the ground. Xavior pushes the guard off him when Dunken comes in and punches Xavior in the face.

“What the hell do you think you are doing to my princess? You will never lay a hand on her again!” then Dunken punches him in the face.

He grabs his coat and leaves the room, speeding down the hall toward the king’s royal office and barking an order at a staff member to get his vehicle.

“Okay, come on out, he’s gone, now. That was perfect, except we needed his phone to put the recording device in it. He’ll come back, and we must distract him from his phone to do that.” Clara sighs.

“I put the tracker on his car before one of the members came to get it. We can also track his GPS in his vehicle when it is turned on,” Scott tells them.

“Good, now we need to do this with the king’s phones and all the vehicles he drives, old and new. Also, we need to hear and see what is being said on the cells, including the texts and emails. See about putting anything on his computer, if possible, to trace those emails and bank accounts. We need videos in his offices and all the rooms he occupies daily and if he watches to see where he goes and ensure there is something there too. We must have solid evidence that he is as dirty as Felix. We must watch everyone and trust no one from the castle or the pack, as we do not know who the mole is here.” Xavior tells the group.

Scott and his brother are tech geniuses, but so are their cousins, who will monitor the entire process in a different territory. They are linked, so they can communicate with the pack members but are strictly instructed to share with Clara and their cousins only.

“Matthew, I must leave; Mother is on my pack lands again. I have to take care of her. I don’t know when I will be back again.” Xavior tells the king.

“Alex, go to her and respect her; she is your mother. I know she is not the best with people, but she did give you birth.”

Xavior sighs, looking defeated, and leaves for his own home. He does not like her as she is constantly starting trouble, but he always takes the risk for her. He likes overpowering the other alphas’ and taking over their packs. It’s a thrill he loves, the hunt he loves, the bloodshed he gets to do.

He goes and leaves the castle heading towards his home. He does not know that his cover has been blown, nor his mother’s.
