Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

Chassy

The Alpha’s office was a haven of subdued tension as I gathered the pack elders-trusted pillars of wisdom-along with Ethan, Limuel, Jack, and Alex. The scent of uncertainty hung in the air, intermingling with the earthy undertones of the wooden furnishings. The decision we were about to discuss had the potential to reshape our strategies against the looming threat of vampires and rogues.

“Ethan,” I began, my eyes meeting my son’s with a blend of maternal warmth and alpha authority. “I believe it’s time to share our plans with the pack, especially regarding the collaboration with the Silver Moon Pack’s trackers led by Nixon and Silas’s fighters.”

He nodded, his gaze mirroring a mix of apprehension and determination. The elders, wise and seasoned, exchanged glances that spoke volumes about their collective readiness to face the challenges ahead.

“We’ve seen an increase in rogue activities, and the vampires are getting bolder. Our trackers, under Nixon’s guidance, have invaluable information about their movements,” I continued, emphasizing the significance of our alliance. Silas has also pledged support through his fighters. The time has come for us to stand united.”

Limuel and Jack exchanged approving glances, a silent acknowledgment of the strength that collaboration could bring. The elders, their expressions a canvas of varied experiences, listened intently, awaiting the details of our strategy.

Alex, Xander’s father is quiet, but he didn’t object either. I think he still didn’t like the idea that I was mated to his son. but I have no time to think about him. I don’t care what he thinks of me; I only want both my packs to be safe from any kind of threat.

“Nixon will be working closely with our trackers, sharing information, and coordinating efforts,” Ethan added, stepping into his role with a commendable blend of authority and humility. “Silas’s fighters will complement our warriors, enhancing our defensive capabilities.”

The elders, with years etched into the lines of their faces, nodded in approval. The significance of unity resonated within the room-a shared understanding that transcended words. The collaborative effort, combining the prowess of our trackers and fighters, marked a pivotal moment in our pack’s history.

“We’ll keep the pack informed through regular updates. Our collective strength lies in staying vigilant and supporting one another,” I affirmed, my gaze sweeping across the assembled group. “Our survival depends on the strength of our unity.”

Ethan echoed my sentiment, emphasizing the importance of every pack member’s role in maintaining our safety and thwarting the impending threats. As the meeting unfolded, ideas and concerns were shared, fostering an atmosphere of collaboration and shared responsibility.

The room resonated with an unspoken agreement, a collective acknowledgment of Ethan’s burgeoning leadership. Each elder, warrior, and pack member in attendance carried an air of trust, their faith in our new Alpha evident in their eyes and postures.

“Ethan, we believe in your capability to lead us through these challenging times,” said one of the elders, a grizzled figure with a lifetime of experiences etched on his weathered face. The sentiment echoed through the room, a chorus of support from those who had witnessed the maturation of the young wolf.

Ethan, standing tall with an air of humility, accepted the affirmation with a nod. “Thank you, everyone. I know the responsibility that comes with this role, and I won’t let the pack down.”

Both the beta and the gamma offered encouraging smiles, silently reinforcing their commitment to guiding him through the intricate dynamics of leading a pack. The seasoned warriors, ever watchful, conveyed their trust through a shared sense of purpose.

His grandfather, Alex Finch, looked proud of him as well, and I don’t think he needs to say any encouraging words to lift Ethan’s spirit and confidence. On that matter, Alex and I shared the same belief.

“You have our full support, Alpha Ethan,” Jack stated, his voice resonating with a blend of respect and camaraderie. “Together, we’ll navigate these challenges and emerge stronger.”

The elders, representing the wisdom and history of our pack, voiced their collective confidence. “The moon chose well in selecting you as our Alpha,” commented an elder with a knowing smile. “Your father would be proud.”

The weight of those words lingered in the room, a poignant reminder of the legacy Xander had left behind. Ethan, though young, carried the burden of leadership with grace and determination, an embodiment of the strength that flowed through the Red Moon Pack.

As Alpha, Ethan would guide us through the trials that lay ahead. His capability, coupled with the collaboration we were forging with the Silver Moon Pack, laid the groundwork for a resilient alliance against impending threats. The room, once filled with uncertainty, now radiated a sense of collective resolve-a united front ready to face the challenges head-on.

In the midst of acknowledgment and support, I observed Ethan’s transformation-a symbolic passing of the torch from the previous generation to the next. The transition marked a new chapter for the Red Moon Pack, a chapter that would unfold under Ethan’s leadership, fortified by unity, collaboration, and the unwavering spirit that defined our pack’s essence.

The decision to ally with the Silver Moon Pack became a ray of hope in the Alpha’s office amid the tenacity of our pack. Through collaboration and unity, we sought to weave a shield that would guard against the encroaching darkness. The room, once laden with uncertainty, transformed into a sanctuary of collective determination, a testament to the unyielding spirit of the Red Moon Pack.

After the meeting, I was left alone in the office. Ethan needs to train the other young warriors, a task he is devoted to doing. He was willing to share everything he learned in the training center with his pack members, and that made him even more qualified to become the future alpha of the Red Moon Pack.

In Xander’s absence, he showed everyone that he was the son that every father would want to have. His capabilities have gone beyond my expectations, and that made me feel proud of him. Even though I am not his biological mother, I never felt threatened by his presence the moment I laid eyes on him in this office. And now I know why. He is the heir that I won’t be able to give to Xander.

As Alpha, he needs to secure the pack’s future. Including its future leader. But being mated to me made it impossible. Thanks to Ethan’s presence, my worry for the packs and Xander getting worried about the future dissipated. They are father and son, and they are both strong. Surely, the future of the Red Moon Pack is in good hands. But first, we must protect our present, which the conspiracy of rogues and lycans has threatened and thwarted.

They had to be put in their places, and I had no idea how to do that but to keep ourselves ready and prepared by being strong in defense and on offense. I don’t know what I would do if something happened to the people I love. I have two packs to protect and, at the same time, two mates who could help me.

Two mates. Who would have thought that I was going to have them in my life? I was neglected once, and I rejected one of them once as well. In all of this, Silas is the one who is under more pressure. We were away from each other, and he couldn’t even come to me unless it was important. We didn’t, or rather, we never had a chance to spend our time together, not thinking about my pack and his coven.

As I contemplated, I felt sorry for Silas, who had been doing everything he could to help me, especially in Xander’s condition. And speaking of his condition, I think it’s about time to tell Ethan about what Silas and I did to his father.

My thoughts were swirling in a tempest of apprehension. The weight of unspoken truths bore down on my shoulders, urging me to share the clandestine actions taken to revive Xander with his son, Ethan. The room, once filled with the resolute energy of united determination, now seemed to echo with the weight of the revelation I was about to impart. I just hope that he will not take it negatively. I know that the vampires are the reason why her mother, Sena, died. But I also hope that he will understand why I did it.

Taking a deep breath, I steeled myself for the impending conversation. Ethan had just accepted the mantle of leadership, and now I needed to disclose a facet of his father’s recovery that bore the signature of collaboration with an unlikely ally-a vampire.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
