Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

Chassy

It was morning, and I was about to go to the Red Moon Pack. No matter how much I wanted to avoid a conversation with Xander, I couldn’t ditch the training because of that. I didn’t want to jeopardize the plan that we made because of my personal reasons.

“Good morning, Alpha.” Ana, an omega who was assigned to the dining hall, greeted me.

“Good morning. What’s for breakfast?” I asked,

“Would you like some pancakes?”

“Of course, I’m sure it’s going to be very delicious,” I replied.

I sat at the head of the table as the morning meal spread before me, a rare moment of calm before the day’s responsibilities enveloped me. The scent of the forest wafted through the open windows, mingling with the aroma of my breakfast. The ambiance was serene, a tranquil respite in the midst of my Alpha duties. Little did I know that the calm would be shattered in an instant.

As I was about to take a sip of my warm tea, a sharp jolt pierced my mind. It was the unmistakable sensation of a distress call through the pack’s mind link-an urgent cry for help. The feeling was like a lightning bolt, jolting from my peaceful breakfast. Then, a patrol guard’s voice echoed in my mind, panic and urgency lacing every word. “Alpha! Vampire sighting near the southern border! We need immediate assistance!”

My heart skipped a beat. Vampires within the borders were a dire threat that needed immediate attention. Without a second thought, I stood, my chair scraping against the floor, and sprinted towards the door.

‘I’m on my way!’ I replied through the mind link to the distressed patrol guard, trying to calm my voice amidst the chaos.

I raced through the corridors of the packhouse while my mind raced in sync with my footsteps. The patrol guard’s report echoed my thoughts as I sprinted towards the southern border.

‘The vampires-there’s at least half a dozen of them, maybe more. They’re highly aggressive and attack any wolves in their path.’

Fear and urgency gnawed at me, but I pushed them aside, replacing them with the determined focus that had defined me as an Alpha. I mind-linked Sims as I ran.

‘Sims, call the Red Moon Pack. Let them know I won’t be able to make it to the training. Tell Xander to stay in his pack and continue training. We can’t afford to be spread thin.’

Sims’ voice, tinged with concern, came through the link, ‘Understood, Alpha. And I’ll be there as soon as I can. Stay safe.”

The border was within reach, and the commotion grew louder. The familiar sounds of a struggle reached my ears, the clash of fangs and claws reverberating through the forest. As I approached, I saw the patrol guard bravely holding off the vampires, who were even outnumbered but faster than them.

I leaped into the fray and ensured my presence was commanding and powerful. The sight before me was a brutal reminder of the savagery of the vampire threat. The patrol guard fought valiantly, but the vampires were relentless, their crimson eyes reflecting the bloodlust that drove them.

In an instant, I sharpened and scanned the scene, analyzing the situation swiftly. The patrol guard was holding his own, but they needed reinforcement. With a howl that pierced the air, I signaled my approach with fierce determination, filling the forest.

The vampires turned their attention towards me, their eyes narrowing with predatory focus. My lips curled into a snarl, my golden eyes blazing with a fire that matched the inferno of my will.

“Stand your ground!” I commanded the patrol guard, my voice unwavering. “We’ll drive them back together.” With a primal roar, I lunged into the fight. My movements were a dance of fury and precision, and I utilized every technique I had trained for over the years, landing my blows accurately and strategically. It was a brutal battle, with the scent of blood and the clash of forces filling the air.

I fought with the ferocity of a true Alpha as my muscles rippled with each strike. I couldn’t afford to let fear or hesitation slow me or us down. The patrol guard fought bravely at my side, the two of them a formidable force against the vampires.

Minutes felt like hours as we clashed with the vampires. When Allie and Sims arrived, they assisted the patrol guard who was under attack from two vampires. Each side pushes the other to the brink. My mind was a whirlwind of strategy and instinct, anticipating the vampires’ moves, countering their attacks, and defending our pack.

Finally, the vampires began to retreat, overwhelmed by their fierce resistance and ferocity. My howl of victory echoed through the forest, a rallying cry for my pack. The patrol guard joined me, howling in triumph, our pack’s spirit burning bright.

‘We did it,’ I said through our link, my voice filled with pride. ‘The threat is contained. Secure the borders and tend to the wounded.’

As the adrenaline of battle began to ebb, my mind shifted to the larger picture. I had missed the training with the Red Moon Pack, a sacrifice I had to make to protect my pack. I knew I would have to coordinate with them, share intelligence, and strengthen our alliance further. The war against the vampires was far from over, and unity among the packs was our greatest asset.

With a heavy heart for the missed training and a sense of duty fulfilled, I began organizing the aftermath. The patrol guard, bruised but resolute, stood beside me. Together, we would ensure our borders were secure and our pack was safe. As night fell, I stood at the border, watching the moon rise, thankful for the safety of my pack and ever vigilant for the challenges that lay ahead.

We have wounded warriors now, and I didn’t want to think about what would happen next. What if I was not here? I know that Sims and Allie are both reliable, plus Daddy Jay and his former beta and gamma were there to provide support whenever needed. But I can’t help but feel worried for the entire pack. I didn’t want anything to happen to them. They had been my family for at least three years, and I will never forgive myself if any of them get hurt.

This incident made me realize I couldn’t do everything alone. I needed all the help that I could get. I needed to be stronger than I already was, and as Daddy Jay and my dad said, it would only happen if I was going to accept my mate.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

My acceptance will benefit both of us. Just like me, he will become stronger. Unlike when he marked me when I didn’t have my Lycan yet, now I have to think about whether I will accept him or not at this point.

I sighed deeply. It was really hard to think whenever I was filled with concern and worry for my pack while I thought about all my experiences in the Red Moon Pack. Does the moon goddess really want me to be with Xander?

As the night fell, I made a decision. In the coming days, I will focus on training my pack. I had to remind them, especially my beta and gamma, about what they needed to do during training. We had been doing that for over a year. But the attack earlier made me realize that it wasn’t enough. We need to train harder. I’ll inform Xander about it and excuse myself from training for a few days; then, I am going to talk to him about us. Yes, that’s it, and it’s final.
