Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

Third Person

Chassy’s steps were measured as she made her way back to the pack house after a long and fulfilling day of training the young warriors. The sun had dipped below the horizon, leaving a trail of fiery hues in its wake. Despite the exhaustion that settled in her bones, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of contentment. The pack’s future protectors were shaping up nicely, and the unity she had witnessed today filled her with pride.

The familiar scent of home enveloped her as she approached the pack house. The training grounds might have been where she honed their physical skills, but this was where the heart of the pack resided. Her thoughts drifted to Xander. She knew he’d be in his office, likely going over pack matters or strategizing for the future. She knew how dedicated he was as a leader, always putting the pack’s needs first.

Chassy made her way to Xander’s office with a tired but genuine smile. She wanted to see him before cleaning up and tending to her own pack’s needs. Their bond was a source of comfort and strength; the brief moments they could steal together during their busy days were cherished.

However, she could never have anticipated what awaited her behind that office door.

As she pushed the door open and entered, her heart seemed to plummet to the pit of her stomach. Her tiredness was momentarily forgotten as her eyes fell upon a scene that was nothing short of shocking. In front of Xander’s desk stood a woman, her eyes filled with a mix of determination and apprehension, while a young boy of about nine or ten clung to her side, casting uncertain glances around the room.

Chassy’s eyes immediately flicked to Xander, who was standing beside his desk, his expression a blend of confusion and discomfort. The atmosphere in the room was tense and heavy, with unspoken words and unexplained emotions.

The woman was the first to break the silence. “Xander, believe me, he’s our son.”

Chassy’s mind was racing, her heart pounding loudly in her ears. Son? What was happening? She had known Xander to have many women when he was young. He’s handsome and gorgeous, in addition to being strong. She even thought before that he might have a child with one of those women. But knowing it to be true at that time weakens her.

Xander’s voice was strained as he replied, “Sena, I wanted to believe you. But why can’t you explain to me the reason why you only showed up now?” Xander asked,All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Sensing the tension in the room, the boy clutched his mother’s hand tighter, his eyes wide but confident. And that didn’t go unnoticed by Xander. Chassy’s heart ached for the child, who was undoubtedly caught in the middle of a situation he couldn’t comprehend.

Sena’s gaze hardened, her resolve unwavering. “Xander, look at him. Look at Ethan. He has your eyes, your hair. How can you deny him?”

“I am not denying him. I am asking you why you only showed up now. Why not after you find out that you are pregnant? Or after you gave birth to him? Why only now?”

Chassy watched as Xander’s eyes briefly flicked toward the boy, Ethan. It was a fleeting glance that betrayed a mixture of emotions-shock and a hint of recognition. But just as quickly as it appeared, Xander’s mask of composure returned. She took a hesitant step forward, her voice steady but laced with concern. “Xander, what’s going on? Do you know this woman?”

Sena turned to Chassy, her expression wary but resolute. “You must be Chassy, the Luna of the Red Moon Pack. I’ve heard about you.” She nodded, her eyes never leaving Xander.

“Yes, I am. Now, can someone please explain what’s happening here?”

Sena took a deep breath before launching into her story. “Chassy, I was a pack member of the Crimson Pack. Xander and I met when we were young and, you know, wild. We shared a night together, and I thought we had a future, even if he had already told me he would wait for his mate. Then I discovered that I was pregnant with Ethan, and I had no choice but to leave the pack because my father would never accept my son without his father. I can’t tell them it was Xander for fear that it would lead to a misunderstanding on both packs. And as I already said, he told me before we did it that he wanted only his mate.”

Chassy’s heart sank as she listened to Sena’s words. She couldn’t fathom that Xander would leave a mess like that. Although she knew how playful her mate was, and Sena admitted that she knew that he would never choose her, she thought that Xander should have been responsible at that time.

Xander, for his part, remained silent, his jaw clenched as he absorbed Sena’s words, which continued, her voice filled with frustration and sadness. “I tried to reach out to him, to tell him about Ethan, but in the end, I still couldn’t. Out of fear that something like this might happen. I had to raise our son alone, and it hasn’t been easy.“

Chassy glanced at Ethan, the young boy who was now at the center of this tumultuous revelation. He looked lost, caught in the crossfire of emotions between his mother and the man who was supposedly his father, but there was determination in his eyes. She turned her attention back to Xander, her voice tinged with hurt and anger. “Xander, is this true? Did you really leave a woman and a child without a word?”

Xander finally spoke, his voice heavy with regret. “Chassy, I… I can explain. I was young then, and everything seemed easy. That happened back then because I was impetuous…”

But Chassy, feeling a whirlwind of emotions, held up a hand to stop him. “No, Xander. This is a lot to process. I need time to think to understand. But know this, we will discuss this further. We owe it to each other and our pack.”

With that, she turned and left the room, her heart heavy with the weight of the revelation. The pack, which had just been a haven of trust and unity, now faced a challenge that threatened to shake its very core. And at the heart of it was a young boy named Ethan, a child caught in the complexity of his parents’ past.
