Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

I decided to stay in my mansion after I left my coven. It pisses me off to think I was the one who needed to leave when, in fact, they were the ones who were trying to do something about my leadership. I want to think about what Chastity and I talked about, and I remember the feeling when our lips touched. I felt her sincerity and love. I wish we found each other under different circumstances.

Thinking about the current situation wherein I cannot trust those whom I should, I think I need to do everything as discreetly as possible. I could not let them get any idea about what was going on, so I needed to talk to Carlile. Right now, he and his family are the only ones I could trust.

After two days, I went back to Carlile but kept my lines open just in case Drake needed me. This is the time when I will be able to know whether he is loyal to me or not. I know that I still have the support of many, and those who go against me have either hidden agendas or they want to rule the vampires themselves.

Leaving my coven marked a significant turning point in my existence. Faced with the unsettling realization that the council harbored suspicions about my actions, I could only seek solace in the company of my longtime friend, Carlile. As I traversed the dusk, the morning sun peeking and starting to cast an ethereal glow on his path, I contemplated the intricate web of alliances and mistrust that now defined his existence.

Arriving at Carlile’s dwelling, a discreet haven nestled away from prying eyes, I found comfort in the familiar presence of my friend. I’m pretty sure that he is aware of the turmoil brewing within me and has greeted me with an understanding nod.

“Silas, my friend, it seems the winds of change are blowing,” Carlile remarked, his voice a low murmur echoing in the confines of the clandestine dwelling.

I nodded, as my thoughts were a tumultuous whirlwind. “The council suspects my intentions. They question my actions and alliances.”

Carlile’s eyes reflected a mixture of concern and curiosity. “What course of action will you take? The threads of fate are intertwined, and every decision we make sends ripples through the tapestry of our existence.”

I considered my options and the weight of responsibility pressingly. “I will remain here for a while, away from the prying eyes of the coven. I must discern the true extent of their suspicions and the potential consequences of their scrutiny.” I made my decision to seek refuge in the relative seclusion of Carlile’s dwelling. The bond of trust between us transcended the complexities of the coven’s politics. I found solace in the camaraderie I shared with him, a friendship forged over centuries.

As I settled into the shadows, contemplating the enigmatic dance of alliances and betrayals that defined my world, I also acknowledged the uncertainty of the path ahead. The delicate balance between loyalty to my kind and the pursuit of a connection with Chastity hung in the balance, and I, guided by a blend of determination and introspection, prepared to navigate the intricate tapestry of my fate.

Feeling relief that Carlile’s people considered me their leader, I met with those whom he put his trust in. I can’t just barge into their territory and act all high and mighty just because I am his friend. But thankfully, they knew who I was and who they were serving from the very beginning.

“I am grateful that you do what you have been told and respect each other. I hope that, just like Carlile, yours and mine are the same. I am looking forward to seeing everyone get along with all supernatural beings and humans. I didn’t want us to hide anymore, and it won’t change unless we stop being a threat to humans.” I said.

“My Lord, I can say that cloning blood has become innovative. Because of technology and intense research by our people, we managed to improve it, and no one would be able to tell the difference between the natural human blood.”

“That’s why I am thankful for those who have worked hard for this. Carlile told me about it and reported that there were among you who were living with their human mates without fear of sucking their blood dry.”

They discuss more about cloning before Carlile introduces him to his security. “They were the ones whom I trusted the most when it came to the lab’s security as well as our products. Not just with the cloning but also with all the medicines. I don’t think you have any idea how rich we are now.”

“You know that I didn’t care much about that. Although I wanted our kind to be sustainable in all aspects, no one would be able to put us down. You know, with humans, money is everything.” I replied.

“It’s not that it’s everything; it’s just that you need to buy everything,” he opposed.

“And you know that it’s the same.”

“No. Because some humans, are content when they have enough food on their tables. It was enough for them if they could afford to buy something they needed. Having been able to have what they wanted, some considered it a luxury.”

“I guess your mate still has influence over you. Her ideals are still living in your veins.” I said, smiling.

“And my kids took after her, and then my grandson and great-grandson,” he replied proudly.

“I say nothing,” I said, raising my hands in surrender with a smile on my face. He is always proud of his family, and even if his mate is long gone, he’s still happy. I saw contentment on his face with his actions and words. I wish I could do that as well in the future. But my happiness has to be set aside for now. I didn’t want to, but I had to. I am a leader, and I want my people to get what they deserve.

Yes, there were those who were working against me, but I want to do my best for those who believe in me, no matter how little they are or even if there is only one. Now that I see that there is a conspiracy forming within the council, I need to guard my position more because I want to change the way vampires live. We are the natural enemies of werewolves and humans. Because our lives are their deaths.

I grew up thinking that people’s blood was our source of life. There is no other way but to suck their blood. I’m just grateful that I came across vampires who had experienced genuine human love. Others couldn’t stop themselves from sucking the blood of their loved ones. But there are also those who have overcome their thirst for blood and are satisfied with the blood of animals.

Despite their knowledge that their mate is mortal, they still gambled. Just like my friend Carlile. And they are the kind that I want to help. Not the evil and greedy ones who oppose me. Since I have all the resources, I think it is about time to start doing what I had to do and fight the conspiracy. If I’m lucky, I will be able to spend my forever in Chastity.
