Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

Chassy

I hope Sena and her father will stop already. I didn’t want to think about them anymore because there were more important things that required my attention. I mean everyone’s attention, and that includes them. The vampire issue will affect not just me or my pack, but everyone. And yet here they are thinking about how they will get stronger than helping our kind to think of a possible way we would be able to defeat our common enemy.

Yes, I know the reason why Donovan insisted on making Sena the Luna of the Red Moon Pack. It’s because he wanted to ensure the safety of his pack. Xander is the strongest among the alphas in this meeting. I could feel it even if he wasn’t excreting his aura. I thought alphas were smart; just why the hell did he think that way?

“Chas, you don’t need to think about Sena and her father.” I looked at Xander and found him staring at me. We are having our breakfast, and I would have enjoyed it if not for the father-and-daughter duo sitting next to our table.

“I am not thinking about them,” I replied. “I don’t have time to think about them, Xander. Our relationships are the least of my priorities right now. All that’s on my mind are the vampires. How will I be able to defeat them?

“I already told you, we are together on this, and we will defeat them,” he replied.

“I know, but you also know that I made it my responsibility to ensure everyone’s safety.”

“We will discuss that matter in the meeting. For now, let’s finish our breakfast because I’m sure that we will be dealing with a much more irritable situation than when we started.” I sighed deeply before I nodded my head, and just as he said, I continued eating.

The food is great, just like the place. I feel like I want to come back here some other time for the sole purpose of enjoying myself and my vacation. For now, I will have to deal with the problems at hand. It’s down to two months, and thankfully, the council stepped up. We stayed in the lobby for a couple of hours after breakfast and talked about casual things with the other alphas. I’m glad that everyone sitting with us was all Xander’s friends during his academy years who were respectful, not just to me but to the others.

“So, she was from your pack? How did she become the alpha of the Silver Moon Pack?” one of his friends asked.

“When I went back to the pack from the academy, I found out that she’s my mate. Imagine she’s only 11 years old at that time; what do you expect me to do?” Xander replied,

“Ah, she left the pack. You rejected her?” The other asked,

“No! Of course not!” he exclaimed, and I wanted to laugh at his reaction. “She was the one who rejected me when she left the pack, thinking I didn’t care about her. I just had some issues I needed to attend to when she turned 18, so I neglected her unintentionally.”

“You’re lucky she came back to you.” The other replied,

“Yeah, goddamn lucky,” Xander said and looked at me with love and admiration.

“Come on, man, just because our luna’s aren’t here, you are allowed to show us that side of you,” they tease him, which he only laughed at.

“Come on, it’s time,” he said after he looked at the clock hanging on the wall behind me. We got up and started walking our way to the ballroom where we met yesterday.

We all took our seats, and I noticed that the council was complete. Even Alex was there already, while Donovan and Sena were both sitting at the same table they were at yesterday. And Xander, of course, stayed at my table and ignored the table that was assigned to him. Well, they all understand him, aside from the father-daughter duo.

“I hope everyone got a good night’s sleep yesterday. We had a rough day before this that almost led us to a challenge. But I’m glad that it didn’t take place. Again, I would like to reiterate that we are here to be united and to help one another in dealing with and defeating our common enemy, the vampires,” the head council started. “Since we talked about the potential war that they wage against us, I would like to let you know why they will do this.” I looked at Xander.

‘Does he know about me?’ I mind-linked him,

‘I don’t know. Let’s listen to him first,’ he replied, to which I agreed, and then we both looked in front of where the head council was standing.

“There is a prophecy that a Lycan will be born to help us defend and fight against the vampires. We all know that Lycan’s slowly vanished because of a curse. And that last Lycan family was nowhere to be found as well, so I had no idea whether there was at least one of them left.”

“What happens if we don’t get or see that Lycan?” One of the older alphas asked,

“I suggest that you train your warriors and fighters so they will be able to fight when the time comes.” The head council replied, “A training that the Red Moon Pack and the Silver Moon Pack had started a long time ago. They even formed a squad designated to fight those vampires,” he added, looking at our table. “Care to tell us why, Alpha Xander?”

My mate got up from his seat and went in front. He looked at me before he started telling them what we had found out about the vampire so far. “We had been attacked and had daily vampire sightings within my border. The news about a Lycan that was born in my pack has come to the vampire’s knowledge as well.” Everyone started to whisper and murmur.

“What do you mean a Lycan was born in the pack?” Alex asked, shocked. He looked clueless, so he had no idea about my father. Dad is so amazing at hiding his identity.

“The Lycan was born in the Red Moon Pack and was helping us with the training,” Xander replied,

“Who is he?” Alex asked, and everyone was waiting for his reply.

“I’m afraid I can’t disclose that information this time. I need to protect the identity of the Lycan for safety reasons. We don’t want the vampires to know about that Lycan as well.” Xander replied,

“I am your father, and we are the council.” Alex insisted.

“That doesn’t change the fact that the Lycan’s safety is important at this time. I am going to tell you everything once we have come up with a plan that will surely take down the vampires.” Xander replied.

“No, we want to know now.” Alex insisted. Xander looked at everyone and apologized.

“I hope that you understand me on this. I will share with you everything we found out about our enemy, but not the information with regards to the Lycan.”

“What information do you know about them then?” the head council asked.

“Their elder leader has awakened and is now looking for the Lycan. We also found out that there are humans who are supporting them financially as well.”All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“And you just informed us about this?” The head council asked again,

“I’m really sorry. I believe that the vampires will only come to us since they know the Lycan is under my custody. But after hearing everything you said during this meeting, I realized that they will still go and come to every pack to make the Lycan show up.”

“And now that you know about that, you still didn’t want to tell us who the hell he is?” The head council asked angrily. Of course, he would, thinking other packs would be attacked so that the vampires would find Lycan, who was me.

“In two months. Someone told us that it was the possible time the vampire would start their attacks.” Xander said, and I couldn’t believe he told them everything.

“And do you think it was enough time for us to train?” It was Donovan now.

“The squad that the packs in our region had formed was ready to be stationed in the pack that needed the training that Alpha Chassy had come up with.”

“That woman taught your squad how to deal with the vampires,” Donovan asked in disbelief and continued mockingly. “What makes her qualified for the job?”

“She can kill two vampires at the same time without a sweat in her human form,” Xander replied, and everyone went crazy. Then I felt all eyes on me.

“That woman? Your mate? You’re telling us that she took down two vampires?” Donovan asked again.

“I forgot to tell you that her Gamma, who is sitting over there, can kill a vampire without a sweat as well. And her beta can do the same.” Xander answered. “With the training regimen she made for the squad, they showed changes in the way they fight. I’m sure the alphas in our region will vouch for me.”

“Don’t overestimate that woman just because she’s your mate. She can’t even accept my daughter’s challenge; what more in killing a vampire?” Xander sighed exasperatedly and looked at the head council.

“Are you sure that your squad is ready to train other warriors?” he asked,

“Of course,” Xander replied. The head council looked at me and smiled before he replied,

“I already had an idea why you trusted her, so I believe you.”

“What!” Donovan exclaimed,

“Stop it already, Donovan; if you didn’t want your pack to be trained by their squad, it’s fine. Just don’t drag this meeting into some senseless challenge that you will regret in the end.”

“No! I, Alpha Donovan of the Meadows Pack, challenge you, Alpha Chassy of the Silver Moon Pack!” I closed my eyes, thinking fighting this man was inevitable.
