Multiple Mates (Complete)

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO royalty returns ??

Barth replies, "In biology we learned that curcuma petiolata is also known as jewel of Thailand. It is a member of the ginger family. This plant has a few other names: siam tulip, hidden ginger, hidden lily or queen lily. Her wolf kept her safe by not using the name lily, but one of the nicknames. Now let us figure out when she was born."

Hidden Ginger back out of the room and was looking for an outfit. One of the warriors said, here take my shirt and pulled it off. He opened a door and said, "go change in there." She went into the room, changed and came back.

She looked at the warrior and whispered, "thank you," and walked back into the room.

Several alphas were standing talking while looking at the screen.

Sarah finally said, "I changed 4 years ago on April 16."

Jarrett said, "
April 18-
baby girl dropped off at Jasper pack orphanage.
baby boys dropped off silver beam orphanage. (Hope safe but caught a scent of a leach, so left other boy here.

Elder Ezra says, "I remember that we had two pups dropped off that day. One during the night. Then one in the middle of the afternoon. Issac was a year or two old and was before Jacob. I never thought a possibility of them being twins.

Alpha Issac put out a mind link, "will all wolves with April birthdays and are 20!years old please report to Alpha's office ASAP."

There were 4 wolves that shows up and Sarah is disappointed that it was not the guy who gave her his shirt. She knew he was not her mate, but she did wonder who he was. She felt connected to him.

Sarah was afraid to trust her feelings. Elsa and Ella went outside into the yard. Elsa was carrying a pitcher of water. She threw it at her sister. Her sister twirled her hands and it started heading toward her hand. It hit her hand and flew up into the air and came back down in her other hand. The water disappeared. All the sudden Tom had it flying from his hand toward Salt and she sent it two different ways. Some toward Pepper and some toward Sarah. All the sudden it froze in mid air. Sarah touch and flicked the frozen water and went toward two of the wolves. They caught the various ice with their hand and sent it flying toward Elsa who guide all the water back into the pitcher.

"Sarah, these are our brothers. We will all go to the clinic and have the doctor do DNA test to verify. Though I do wonder what are your names and wolves name are?"

One reply is " Shawn and wolf, Siam" and the other said "My wolf name is Curcuma, but I am just called Cuma and my human name is River."

The meeting was adjourned until after lunch. The children and Meri were not there for the afternoon session.

FLASH BACK ENDS

The next day all the packs showed up as ordered by their alphas. Councilwoman Marcia stood you on stage, Good morning. I know today many of you wonder why you are called here. The past couple of days, several Alphas have come together. We discovered that Elementals have returned. Then so has our King and Queen. They brought forth Dagian and Farra. This is our future King and Queen."

One of the people in the audience says, "you expect us to believe these two whelps are our future King and Queen? How do we know not a trick for Alpha Issac to take power?"

The councilwoman sighs, "one more outburst like that I will start doing contempt fines here. The other night we raised $254,061 toward the orphan fund. Before I was interrupted I was going to prove it." She then stares down the audience. "Many of us have heard the legend of the return of the king and queen. They would return along with then elementals to prepare us to take on a great evil that is heading out way. We would know when Elementals would start to appear. Plus the royalty would return and do something that no pup has done since the last royalty." She looks at the pups, "SHIFT." Before the various packs are two white pups. They all bow to the new king and queen. Then watch them as they wrestle and play. They play until they fall asleep. Then they transform back into their human forms.

"The council last night met in private. In three weeks from now we will host the mating gatherings again. We will continue to have all our packs where scent begone until the night of the hide and seek run.

The day after the hide and seek run well do a mateless raffle. All males 25 and older who are mateless will participate in a drawing. Any female from age 20-25 will have their names out into the drawing by their Alphas. Then she-wolves who are 26 and older can request their names be out in the drawing. Then each male wolf can choose which age group they wish to drawl a name from. The she wolf will be brought forward and marked.

But there is one catch. When both are on stage all singles will be asked to do one more whiff to ensure their mate isn't here. If no response then the male will mark his raffle mate and go complete the mating bond.

The next night we will have a combination coordination and mate ball. We will crown a new acting king. Him and his mate will stay acting king and queen until the new king and queen are of age to take control."

"Who will be named acting King and Queen?" Someone called out from the crowd.

"We have three members who are eligible for this role based on our ancient laws. It has to be blood ties to the king and queen. Plus be or has been an Alpha. This makes from the king side: his parents and grandparents. From the queen side this makes her grandparents."

The night of the ball each adult member 16 on up who have joined the union will be eligible to vote. At the stroke of midnight the votes officially end. The three eligible kings and queens will come to the stage. The winner will be crowned."

Now today all wolves from the packs will line up. Each member 16 years on up from all packs lined up.  Each alpha was given a ceremonial knife. The first alpha would cut their palm and his own. Each alpha will  say, "we are joining our packs together do you accept us as your alphas. They would reply yes and our palms touched and we merged together. The recipient had to do this with each alpha. If they moved fast it was only one cut needed, but if  they moved slow they got several cuts cuts since we healed so fast.  Once it was realized moving fast was what was needed for just one cut we quickly got through the line. This opened the mind link between all of us. Afterwards we went on a pack run. The elders and pregnant she-wolves stayed behind to watch the pups. They did one round about pack lands. Then they went back and gathered the ones who could not shift . They climbed on wolves backs. The infants and toddlers were placed in special bags and carried. Then we ran to the lake where we had the first barbecue as the Golden Rhelm Pack.
