"What do you mean?" Helena asked, looking at Romeo confused.
"Remember when you said that you went to the Warrior Academy and I went to the Alpha Training Camp?" he asked Helena.
She nodded slowly.
Traditionally, all Alpha heirs went through training when they hit seventeen. At that age, their positions as Alpha Heir were more or less secured.
They went to learn how to manage their packs and fight.
It was also where they learned the traditions and history of their people.
"When we're in our final years, we're tasked with engaging in minor missions," Romeo explained. "And one of the missions I had to lead was one against the Dark Ridge pack."
Helena looked at Romeo, she could see a look of regret hovering on the surface.
"What happened?" Helena dared to ask.
"It was supposed to be a simple mission," he explained as he held her close. "Alphas in training were not asked to engage in any fights. We were just there to warn the Alpha, but my temper got the best of me."
