Not Just A Luna; I Am Alpha!

Chassy

Xander went to patrol while I stayed in his office and immediately called Sims to ask if he saved the number that Silas used when he called the Silver Moon Pack. I need to talk to my vampire mate to discuss the checkpoint that took place on a road to the south. It’s not far off that he knew about that incident because we found out that the delivery van was full of blood and suddenly turned the corner and didn’t go through the checkpoint that was waiting.

I can’t rest until I know if Silas had something to do with it or not. I was also hoping that if he does have something to do with it, I hope it’s not to harm any humans or my kind. I don’t want to be completely angry with him because he is my mate, and Thea will get hurt when we find out that he would rather ignore our bond than stop their evil plan against me and the rest of us.

I still haven’t figured out how to reconcile him with Xander, but I also don’t want to increase their misunderstanding because of Silas’ evil doings. To be honest, I don’t know if I will be able to choose between them. I just hope we don’t have to come to that point and we can get along.

“Dear,” said Daddy Jay’s voice when I answered his phone call.

“Did you talk to him, Dad?” I asked immediately. Sims was still on the trip, so Daddy Jay called Silas instead. I’m sure my beta begged him to make the call. They were protective of me and didn’t let me talk to my mate even on the phone.

“Yes, dear, just meet at your old meeting place,” answered Daddy Jay. It looks like I need to build a hut in that part of the Silver Moon Pack territory; that’s where Silas and I will meet.

“I have to go back there. When is he available?” my question

“Tomorrow. He said he had things to attend to, so he had to hurry.” Daddy Jay said

“Alright, I’ll inform Xander about it,” I said,

“Be careful when traveling, dear,” he reminds me.

“I’m always careful, and you know that, Dad,” I responded with a hint of reassurance. I also don’t want him to worry about me, so as much as possible, I always assure him that I’m fine and OK.

‘Xander, I need to go back to the Silver Moon Pack. I am going to meet Silas tomorrow morning.’ I mind-linked him. I thought he would rush himself to go back to the pack house, but he replied,

‘Okay, Chas. Take care.’ Wait, is that it?

‘Are you mad?’ I asked,

‘No, why do you ask?’

‘You sounded mad.’

‘I’m not.’

‘Why don’t you come back here first so I will be able to say goodbye to you properly?’

‘This is not goodbye, Chas. Stop saying that word. You’ll just have to go back to your pack to attend to something important.’ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

‘So, you didn’t want to see me go? Are you sulking now?’

‘Of course not!’ he exclaimed. ‘I just didn’t want to send you off thinking about whom you will be meeting. I want to stop myself from feeling jealous because I didn’t want us to come to the point that you’d feel annoyed at me because of that.’

‘Fine, I’m back before you know it.’

‘I’ll expect that, honey. I love you.’

‘I love you too.’ I sighed before I went to our bedroom and got changed. I will be driving my motorcycle, so I need my gear.

The midday sun cast dappled shadows through the dense foliage as I maneuvered my motorcycle along the winding forest trail. The hum of the engine echoed through the trees, merging with the rustle of leaves as the wind played its melody. Unbeknownst to her, lurking shadows marked the presence of vampires, ready to pounce on their unsuspecting prey.

As I rounded a bend, the air shifted, and an ominous stillness settled over the woods. Unnatural silence replaced the gentle sounds of nature. It took only a heartbeat for the first vampire to materialize, launching from the shadows with predatory grace. Long fangs gleamed in the filtered sunlight as the vampire closed the distance, swift and silent.

My instincts kicked in, and I swerved the motorcycle, narrowly evading the initial attack. “Not today,” I muttered, the determination evident in my voice. The forest erupted into chaos as more vampires materialized, their eyes gleaming with hunger. They pursued me with relentless speed, weaving through the trees like shadows in pursuit.

I roared my motorcycle’s engine, echoing the adrenaline coursing through my veins. “You think ambushing me is a smart move?” I taunted, with a voice cutting through the wind. I can see that the vampires, undeterred, closed in, their inhuman speed allowing them to keep pace with my speeding bike.

I gripped the hilt of the silver dagger strapped to my thigh. With a swift motion, I unsheathed the weapon, its silvery blade catching the sunlight. “Let’s dance,” I declared, channeling my lycan strength into my every move.

The forest became a blur as the vampires and I engaged in deadly pursuit. The occasional clash of metal against fang rang out, punctuating the frenetic rhythm of our chase. I skillfully maneuvered my motorcycle, using its speed to my advantage, while the vampires, agile and relentless, attempted to close in for the kill.

One vampire, more daring than the rest, lunged from a treetop, aiming to land on my back. I was anticipating the attack, executing a precise spin, my dagger meeting the vampire mid-air. A hiss of pain echoed as the vampire recoiled, momentarily thwarted.

“You’re persistent; I’ll give you that,” I remarked with a smirk, my eyes scanning the surroundings for an advantage. The forest provided ample cover, and I used the terrain to my advantage, leading the vampires into a thicket where their movements were hindered.

As the pursuit continued, I mind-linked anyone who was in the area. I knew that we have patrols who go beyond our border but keep their presence hidden. ‘Vampires are on my tail. Need backup,’ she transmitted urgently. Simon, along with a group of Silver Moon warriors, responded promptly, converging on my location.

With backup on the way, I pressed on, determined to shake off the relentless pursuit. The forest became a battleground, with the clash of wills echoing through the trees. The vampires, realizing they were outnumbered, retreated into the shadows, disappearing as swiftly as they had appeared.

The reinforcements arrived, their presence dissuading the vampires from further pursuit. I, though victorious, remained vigilant. “We’ll deal with them later. Right now, we have to fortify our defenses,” I instructed, my eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of the elusive foes.

The forest, once again serene, cradled the aftermath of the encounter. I turned to face my warriors. “Stay vigilant. The vampires won’t stop until they get what they want,” I warned, the weight of their unyielding adversaries lingering in the air. “And how come you’re here, Simon?” I asked the former beta.

“You know your dad. I guess he had dreamt about this as well,” he answered. Yes, Daddy Jay had been a great help in some of our future incidents. We managed to get away from a really dangerous situation because of him. He always had answers to almost everything, which makes me wonder if the moon goddess sent him to protect me and our kind.

“Thank you again for coming here.”

“No problem, Alpha,” he replied, smiling.

As the Silver Moon warriors formed a protective perimeter, I revved my motorcycle’s engine, the sound resonating through the forest. The chase might have ended for now, but the war against the vampires had only just begun.
