“We first want to thank Alpha King Reginald and Luna Queen Anne and their son Prince Alexander for joining us this week for Elite Warrior trials. It truly is an honor to be a host pack and I know all of our young trainees have had an amazing time with your warriors. I know they are all excited to put their new knowledge to use. It was also nice to have some friendly neighboring pack training, everyone involved learned a great deal and I wish you all luck in your placements with the Elite Warriors.” A polite amount of clapping follows.

Alpha Reggie follows up with congratulations to all who participated in the trials, stating his trainers have been left with some tough decisions to make. ”

We are also excited to see the young leaders at the training grounds here in a few weeks. Now that I have seen how much they have grown and what they are capable of here on their home turf, I can’t wait to see them challenged again this summer. I may have to rethink some of our strategies seeing your young warriors train.” He chuckles and everyone else follows suit before Alpha Lucas finishes.

“We are here to not only celebrate the end of the trials and their success, we are celebrating the end of the year, with many of our graduating pack members moving onto great and successful careers and our own future leaders heading into the next phase of their training. With their departure following the mating ball next weekend we want to wish them well and good luck on their journey this summer. And from the sounds of it, they will need all the luck they can get.” More laughter follows. “Please eat and enjoy yourselves, our pack has much to be thankful for.”

With that, both Alphas sit down and look, relieved maybe, that the formalities are all over. I look around at the crowd milling about. This is what I imagine parties for the guys to be like, people

crawling everywhere, standing room only and a constant humm of conversation. The buzz is almost palpable.

It’s a weird sensation and I find myself smiling again for no reason other than I’m included this time.
