Chapter 146 Pack–house
Daniel’s P.O.V.
Hunter has been quiet ever since we left their Pack, she has been staring out the window as we have talked about everything Aspen could come up with. It doesn’t feel as if she is nervous or anxious and I wonder what is going through her mind.
“Hunter, are you okay?” I ask her and for a moment I am not sure if she will answer me. I am fine, Dad. Just trying not to freak out about the fact that I will be living in a fucking Castle.” Ibarst ona in laughter at her words and the others just stare at me.
“I asked Hunter if she was okay, she hasn’t said a word since we drove off and she had me a little worried. The answer I got was not the answer I was expecting from Hunter.
I thought she would be worried about a lot of things, not about living in a Castle.” I say and we all burst out in laughter. “Don’t worry, Princess. It is just a very big Pack–house.” Brent says and she smiles at him.
Brent tells her that we live in the east wing of the Palace and that most unmated males and females live in the west wing. She turns her head to Gabe and asks him why he lied to her. “What do you mean, Princess? I would never lie to you, no matter what.” He asks shocked.
“Hunter, he didn’t lie to you.” I say, because I know why she asked him that question. “The Pack–house in my Pack’s territory is as Gabe described, it is the place I meet with Alphas that need help from the Royals.
Only the Council knows who I really am, no one outside the Palace Grounds knows that I am the King. To make sure no one will ever know, we built a Pack–house on that territory and there is a Pack living there.
They are a part of the King’s Pack and they volunteered to live there to keep my identity a secret. It functions as a normal Pack, even though I am not there on a daily basis.
I have two Betas and two Gammas, so there is always leadership at the Pack and they are Gabe and Brent’s younger Brothers. Both of them have a Mate and Pups, they love living there and they know what I expect them to do.”
Hunter turns her head towards the window and know she is processing my words. It is a lot to take in and I give her the time she needs to come to terms with it.
My Father never wanted to keep my identity a secret, but after two attempts to kidnap me and loosing his Mate during the last attempt he knew he had to. No one ever answered any questions about the last attempt and soon rumors had spread that I had died with my Mother.

**Fack–house
The Council had agreed with my Father and the rumors had never been denied. When he had taken a chosen Mate rumors started to go around that she had given birth to the next heir, but again it was not confirmed or denied.
They never had any offspring; Father had chosen his Mate because she couldn’t have any Pups and she had always known that. She raised me and I am grateful for the time I had with the both of them.
The love they shared was nothing compared to what my parents had, but my Father was happy and that was the most important thing to me. She died long before I met my Mate and I felt sorry they never had the chance to get to know one another.
Hunter’s P.O.V.
There are so many questions I have after Daniel explained everything to me, but I don’t know with which one to start. I need to sort out my thoughts first before I release an avalanche of questions.
Victor is the one to pull me out of my thoughts as he asks what I am thinking, I smile at him before I tell him he might not want to know and we both laugh at the expression on Gabe’s face.
“I actually have a few questions that I would like to get an answer to. Does this mean that I have two bedrooms and that I have two wardrobes?” Mom starts laughing and Brent turns his head towards the window.
“Hell, if I need to fill up two closets I need to go shopping.” I say. “Think I can get my Brothers nuts enough to accompany me?” I ask and Daniel starts laughing uncontrollably as Victor is shaking his head.
“Why did I even ask that question?” Victor mumbles. Gabe just stares at me and I see a mischievous look in his eyes as he replies, “And two schools to attend to.”
I smile at him and say, “Finally a challenge when it comes to school. One school is boring the hell out of me, but I hope you also know how I can get from one school to the next on time, GeeGee.” Daniel and Brent double over as Mom is shaking her head at my comment,
