4. Queen of Wizarding World

[Xavier]

"Alpha." The 6-foot raven-haired man bowed.

"Did you inform them?" The Alpha asked while his eyes were trained on the laptop screen.

"Yes, Alpha. I have informed the packs so they can send in the human students who have been selected," the Beta informed.

"Good. Thanks, Arnold," the Alpha said, glancing at the royal Beta and a very good friend.

Arnold nodded with a smile.

"Do you think they will send the spy?" Arnold asked curiously.

He had seen his friend and Alpha go against the Council members to make this change. This was a big step. Nonetheless, he had his family's love and support and his friends as well.

After almost 3 centuries, humans will be allowed to set foot in the Ravenwood.

"Yes, they will, Arnold. They are becoming desperate day by day and the easiest way to sneak in is to get admission here," he replied thoughtfully.

"But won't they get suspicious? Suddenly..." Arnold trailed off.

"I know that but we need to take the risk. There will only be a handful of human students - 50 of them, which will enable us to keep tabs on each one of them and we can also find out who are the black moles, in our world if we catch that human," the Alpha King explained, hatred lacing his tone at the thought of the 'human' race and the traitors.

Arnold growled in agreement.

They knew certain werewolves, especially certain Alphas had allied with humans, but the reasons were still unclear.

Arnold nodded grimly. He knew the risk of letting humans enter this University. But he also knew that the King's decision was not taken quickly. He knew what he was doing. He was proud of their Alpha King and his decisions were never questioned, not because they were scared to ask, but for their tremendous respect and faith in their leader.

"Call a meeting today in the Hall in the evening," he instructed.

"Okay, King," Arnold responded.

His friend sighed, "Start calling me by my first name Arnold when we are not in public. You're my sister, Mathilda's mate. Therefore, you are family and we were on the first name basis before we took up our positions, remember?"

"Uh, sorry Al- I mean Xavier," Arnold replied sheepishly. "But you were more laid back then," he remarked.

Xavier tensed. How could he say that even after 9 years since he shifted at 16, he is yet to find his mate? Even though he has convinced himself that he might not be blessed with a soulmate, his wolf Leikos disagrees with him. So nowadays the word 'smile' seemed like a foreign word to him.

"The royal duties take a toll sometimes," he lied.

Arnold smiled wistfully. He knew that Xavier yearned for his mate, but he would never admit it out loud.

"By the way, today Alpha Samuel told me to inform you that aunt Jade is-"

But before Arnold could complete his sentence, the huge mahogany doors of the office flung open and in walked a tall woman wearing a turquoise sweater with white polka dots and a purple palazzo, her red high heels clicked on the floor and behind her the royal Delta, Vladimir floated in!

The other two males' eyes widened.

His head hit on the entrance. "Ow," he winced, making Arnold cringe. Then his body sunk a little lower but was still kept floating. He had an utter helpless look on his face.

Xavier let out an aggravated sigh while Arnold tried to smother his laughter with a cough. Vlad glared at Arnold and then looked at Xavier pleadingly.

Xavier stood up and greeted his aunt with a quick hug. Arnold too greeted her the same way.

"I see you boys are fine," Jade spoke, looking at the two of them and completely ignoring the person in the air.

"Thanks, aunt. You are looking... uh... beautiful as well," Arnold said with a nervous smile. The woman's crazy taste in fashion couldn't be criticised unless one wanted to get killed or worse, get punished by her spells.

"I know, kiddo. I am awesome," she smirked.

Xavier glanced at his Delta's pitiful state and came to his aid, "Aunt. Please set Vlad down."

"Nope," she said, flipping her blue-dyed hair. "Now he will learn not to mess with Jade Jenson," she glared at the poor guy.

"I...I was only following the King's order," Vlad cried, defending himself, flailing his hands in the air.

Jade glanced at the Delta, "I am his aunt and I am a Queen as well so I have the permission 24x7, right Xav?"

Xavier had no other choice. He knew better than to argue with this woman, "Yes. You do".

Jade said smugly, "See."

"I said I was sorry Queen. I forgot. But I do apologise. Can you please put me down? Please," Vlad pleaded.

Arnold snickered, not able to hold his amusement any longer. Vlad shot daggers with his eyes at the Beta.

"Oh alright. I hope you have learned your lesson," she admonished. Vlad nodded his head vigorously, ready to do anything.

She flicked her fingers and Vlad came crashing down on the concrete floor with an "oomph". The Delta scrambled up and profusely apologised to the Queen of the Wizards. Again.

"Okay, fine. Just get the hell out now," Jade dismissed him.

Sorry, Alpha. Vlad mind-linked Xavier.

Xavier nodded. Vlad scurried out of the room.

Xavier shook his head. How on earth could uncle Roland tolerate her antics and mood swings were beyond him? But then again, he was her mate, so that was normal. They did not have any kids but aunt Jade equalled 5 kids with her vivacious nature and mischiefs.

"Aunt, why did you grace us with your presence?" Xavier asked, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Oh right. I came here..." She trailed off and tapped her chin, "Wait...Why did I come here again?"

Xavier shut his eyes to control his rising temper.

"Uh... I have some work. I guess I will take your leave," Arnold said awkwardly, gauging the rising tension and trouble. He decided to remove himself from the presence of this dangerously mischievous witch. He bowed quickly and left them. Xavier scowled at him. Some friend he was.

"What happened to him?" Jade asked in confusion.

"Nothing. Absolutely nothing", Xavier shook his head, praying for more tolerance.

"Oh-oh, I remember, I remember", Jade suddenly cried out excitedly.

Xavier looked at her expectantly.

"I came here to tell you that I have done what you asked me to do. I have sealed the exclusive werewolf places with magic," she grinned.

Xavier's interest piqued. Now that was some good news seeming that the humans would be coming by the end of this week and he knew that no matter how mischievous she was, her spells were strong and effective. She was a true queen of the world of witches and wizards; he thought proudly.

"What spell have you used?" Xavier quizzed.

"It's a spell that manipulates anyone who goes near the place that's under that spell, they will immediately go somewhere else" Jade replied while looking at her manicured nails.

"Okay. Good," he said.

"It'll be fun to have them here," she grinned evilly.

"No. You will not, even by mistake, use magic in a human's presence. I forbid you to do so," Xavier warned, knowing exactly what his aunt was thinking.

"Okay. I will try," she pouted.

"You won't do any such thing," he growled.

"Oh alright," she rolled her eyes.

"Thanks a lot, aunt," Xavier said sarcastically.

"You're welcome, kiddo," she chirped.

"I'm not a kid," he replied irritably.

"Oh, but you will always be a kid in my eyes," she went on to pinch his cheek, but when he glowered at her, she retracted her hand.

She put her hand on her hip, "Listen here Mister, king or not. I have changed your diapers, so..."

"Aunt. You need to leave," he gritted out.

She rolled her eyes, "Need to text your mom that her adorable son is no more adorable".

Xavier scowled.

"Okay, okay, I am leaving, geez, and anyway,  I'm going on a lunch date with Ro," Jade gushed like a teenager.

"Yes, please," he muttered, relieved by the announcement.

"Oh and don't forget about the family dinner tonight. Au revoir mon cher," she said, pecking his cheek.

Once the door closed, he growled, "Fuck. My. Life".
