Taken By My Alpha

“Almost there.” Mum whispered while slowing the car and turning down the heat.

“What are we going to say to them?” I huddled closer, coming at the edge of the seat nervously, “are we going to tell them that my wolf is a useless pup so our pack didn’t want me?”

Mom fell silent for a moment, then her hands started fishing around in the dashboard to look for something, “No. We are going to tell them that Alpha Brutus was violent and abusive to me.” she said calmly and took out a crowbar. Without a warning, she smashed it on her forehead.

“MOM!” I screamed in horror. Her head started bleeding so much!

“Hush.” she murmured and put the bloody crowbar back in the dashboard, “A small price to pay for a new future, Heather. ” She calmly wiped away the overflowing blood with kleenex. 

“You don’t have to hurt yourself.” I had my hand on my mouth to suppress my sobs, “mom-”

“I did what I have to do for us to survive.” She put down the paper and turned to me. Her big eyes gleaming in the dark, staring at me intently. “Mommy did this for us, for you. The best you can do is to make my sacrifice worth it.”

I lowered my hands and wiped the tears from my eyes while nodding my head. She was right. I couldn’t see her get hurt because of me any longer.

Ten minutes later, we were at the entrance of Moonstruck pack. Pack soldiers were guarding the territory at night actively. One of them immediately ran towards our car when it came to a stop in front of the gates.

He was a young, handsome man, with muscles bulging through his fair skin. He stood at six feet tall, with the build of a warrior. His hair was black, it fell to his shoulders. Leaning down to look through the car window, he glanced at the both of us before asking, “How can I help you?”

His knitted brows were focused on the wound on my mom’s head, but ignoring his piercing eyes, she turned off the ignition and got out of the car to speak with him. I followed her suit.

My mom told him our names and from where we came, asking to meet the alpha. He was clearly surprised to hear that we were from Silvae pack. As the rivalry between both the packs went back to several decades, I don’t think they ever had a visitor from the opposing pack.

“I am Alfred, Beta of Moonstruck pack.” he said, “I will be back in a bit. Please wait here.”

He turned around and jogged towards the pack house. It didn’t take him too long to return,

“Alpha is ready to see you. Please follow me closely.”
