Part 1 More to come
"You look, lovely darling," I whispered in Mei's ears as the crowd of wolves were waiting for my speech.
"Only for you to lay your eyes on." She winked at me.
The military green tight fit dress complimented her perfect figure. I felt ready to lead. My energy and
mental strength were empowered by my great alpha wolves within me.
"This is a dream come true for me. I have always wanted to bring everyone together."
I heard everyone cheer and waited for everyone to calm down.
"I am looking forward to starting anew. With the vampires gathering a large fleet of them, a few
hundreds of us was impossible to defeat all of them, but now I can feel our family getting stronger than
ever."
Some of the wolves howled and clapped in encouragement, giving me further energy to carry on.
"We can fight and destroy them and their territories, making the world a safer place for every living
creature. Soon we will have more packs coming in and once they all arrive I can explain my plan," I
said with a deep growl, emphasising my passion towards my words.
"Make yourselves at home and enjoy these refreshments that will come out in a minute."
I motioned for Steph that was standing outside the kitchen doors to start serving.
Being the leader was a tough responsibility, but I wanted to spend some time going around meeting
with the new arrivals. I didn't want to show any pride, but more then anything, I wanted to be equal with
everyone.
"Will you come along?" I turned my face to look at Mei.
"Sure darling," she said nodding with a sincere smile.
We walked down the stairs and headed towards the crowd spotting an old friend.
"Ah, Alpha Nate. Long time no see," I yelled over the other voices.
"Luka, look at you. It has been a while. How are you Alpha king?" He said teasingly.
"Oh, well, I guess full-on busy. Still the same old Luka though."
I winked and patted him on the shoulder. Nate giggled deeply, raising his glass of champagne above
his head.
"Cheers. To the future, our better future," he said raising his eyebrows smiling.
"Cheers to an old friend, and like you said, a better future," I said smiling back clinking the glasses of
champagne together, before downing the glass.
Mei and I moved further in as we chatted to omegas, lunas and alphas.
It had been a long evening and it was getting late. With just one look at Mei, I knew she wanted to go to
bed so we fled from the crowd and headed into our quiet bedroom.
She took off her dress and hung it intently on the clothes hanger. She grabbed a nightgown and some
underwear and headed into the shower. Whilst I waited for my turn to wash, I took off my clothes and
just looked outside the window enjoying the view below.
My thoughts went on Korine, my adoptive mother which I haven't seen in months. Even though she
could never understand our traditions and roles, she filled the void of motherhood for me and for that I
was grateful.
I hoped that one day I could have permission from our goddess to have one last chance at a goodbye
before she passes away.
I knew that she was growing old and as a human, she would not live as long as wolves. I exhaled
sharply unknowingly when I feel two cold hands wrapping around my shoulders. I turned around to see
Mei looking at me with concerned eyes. We just stared at each other for a while then I went in for a
hug. We didn't say a word, but her actions comforted me.
I went in the shower feeling mentally drained so I just wanted to feel the light water dribbling down my
skin as I rested an arm on the wall. All my thoughts and responsibilities started coming in. Everyone
was leaning on my shoulders.
"Oh Beautiful Goddess of the bright moon, I hope that you made the right choice choosing me to lead
your army of wolves. I do have trust in you, I know you know that, but I sometimes feel alone in this."
I almost choked up feeling the weight on my shoulders. I went out of the shower and wrapped a towel
around my waist. After brushing my teeth I went out to grab the shorts from the bed. Mei was already
fast asleep so I quietly moved over to my side of the bed and slid under the covers, wrapping my arms
around her waist feeling the need of some closeness.
The bright warm sun hit my skin and I squeezed my eyes feeling my pupils dilate with the light coming
in. Mei was still fast asleep but I needed to head to the bathroom.
Mei's POV
I woke up feeling Luka's bedside empty with my elongated arms. It was still warm from his body so I
knew he was not far. I took a deep breath and his scent was all over the room. Still tired from the
previous night I stayed under the bedsheets. It took a few minutes for Luka to come out of the
bathroom when he noticed me.
"Ah, you are awake. Good morning sunshine." I smiled as I listened to his amazing voice.
I moaned and threw the bedsheet over the other end of the bed, exposing half of my body as I tried to
sit down. Luka leaned his body over me feeling the skin of my face with his large fingers.
"Breakfast?" He asked smiling at me.
I nodded and managed to stand up from the bed.
"Here," he said picking up a green crop top and black sportive trousers.
I giggled as I could see that he was giving me way too much attention this morning. I changed and we
walked downstairs. The crowd of people filled the whole dining room and I noticed that there were
another two new pack groups that came in early this morning. Luka and I headed to their tables to
welcome them.
"We have more coming in today," Luka explained to Sean, the alpha of the evergreen pack.
"I have been trying to get rid of the bloodsuckers for too long. This was the perfect opportunity. They
have killed hundreds of us along the time and we're getting weaker and weaker. This is a good thing."
Luka lowered his head and exhaled. "I am so sorry to hear this. I know how it feels like to lose even
one, let alone hundreds. That is so sad. Every day I get angrier and angrier at those bastards. And it is
all but a witch's fault. She wouldn't let her husband die in peace so she figured a way to cheat death.
Her spell moved from one human to another with each bite until they formed an army of them strong
enough to break the world."
I noticed his eyes turned ice blue as he held a fist.
"The witch was turned too, you know? Her husband turned her so that they would live together and get
to have as many children as they pleased. Each bite would create another one of the vamps. Years
ago they brought in a few doctors and scientists to help them create eggs if their own and mess with
their DNA to create more and more monsters like them. And you know what is the worst? The which
never lost her powers after the bite," Luka continued to explain.
"These vamps have to stop. No more dying or afraid of bumping into them as we run the forest. They
never belonged as part of nature," Sean said shaking his hands whilst raising his voice.
I sat down on the table where our pack was taking breakfast. Steph was going around just to check
how many wolves were left to feed.
"Hey Steph" I called.
She rushed next to me with her puffy red cheeks, trying to catch her breath.
"Gee, There are too many. The chefs are worn out already. We started early in the morning but it was
still not enough," She said.
I stood up from the chair offering her a helping hand.
"No Luna. It is not your job to do. But I would appreciate it if maybe our alpha would mention something
during this morning's meeting before everyone would head off to the training grounds."
I nodded and held a hand on Steph's arm, caressing it to help her relax.
"Don't worry. I will let him know. I am sure he will agree with the idea."
She ran off and I sat back down turning my head to see the plate already on the table in front of me. I
dug into my food and noticed some very young girls watching me intently. I smiled and motioned with
my hand for them to come closer. I heard a lot of squeaks before reaching my table.
"Luna. Oh my. We are so excited. Thank you for letting us join you."
I giggled, placing the fork and knife on the table to give them my full attention.
"Sure sweeties, any time. I am no better than anyone in here. Like you, I love to have someone to chat
with. Tell me, what are your names?" I asked smiling.
"This is Mei, just like you, Nina, Genna, Kelly and I'm Belle," she said motioning with her hands towards
her friends, pointing out who is who.
"Well, what wonderful names. Are you new here?"
They all nodded together.
"We are part of the Bane pack," Nina told me.
"Welcome darlings. We will be seeing each other often now. How about starting training with me? I can
teach you how to easily defend yourselves if you end up in deep trouble," I explained trying to convince
them, taking the opportunity to see what they think.
If I keep them close to me I might have more kids wanting to come for such training. They all looked at
each other with a big smile and wide eyes.
"Yes!" they said together in a choir excitedly.
"Well then. We will start our first day of training right after lunch. Now go fill up your bellies to get some
energy in you for later."
I winked at them before seeing them leave excitedly, hopping and screaming their lungs out.
"Ah, such energy," I told Luka as he was sitting himself down next to me.
"Did you just convince them to start training with you?" He asked with a smile.
"Why are you so surprised honey?" I giggled.
"Oh, You were born to be a Luna. Guess I shouldn't be," he said with a grin. "Cheers to that" he
continued as he raised his glass of water before sipping it down.
I smiled and turned my face down on the plate pricking some food with my fork.
