We arrived at noon the next day, and we called him when we got close, as he had instructed. When we pulled down the long drive leading to the compound, I was surprised that it was an actual castle.
"Wow! This is amazing!" I said, taking in the impressive view. Trees surrounded it on all sides, and the forst stretched out for as far as the eye could see. We followed the road around to the back.
"Isn't it?" Dakota beamed. "I think Zy modeled the castle for The Starlight Pack after this one. But I think this one's bigger."
"I had no idea this was even here!" But that was probably the idea. It was to remain secluded, unless someone was looking for it. I'd pity the person who ran into it accidently.
In the back, a tall American Indian man, well built and very good looking with long black hair stood beside an American Indian woman with long dark brown hair, who was very beautiful.
The caravan stopped, all pulling in behind my father's truck. Dakota got out and took my hand to help me out, as my father got out and walked beside us.
The tall man walked down the stairs, giving us a warm smile. "You must be Alpha Chavez," he said, offering me his hand.
"Yes," I replied, shaking his hand. "and you must be Alpha Supreme Grey."
He chuckled. "Just Julien is find." then he turned to the beautiful young woman. "And this is my wife, Lacey Grey, my Alpha Queen."
I wasn't sure what to do, so I gave a slight curtsie. "Your Magesty."
Lacey gave me a warm smile. "Please. Call me Lacey."
"You must remember my fiance, Dakota Ouray and my father, Caleb Chavez, Chief of the Ute Tribe."
"Yes, of course!" julien pulled my father in for a warm, manly hug and did the same for Dakota. "Caleb, Dakota, it's been a while."
"Too long," Caleb said.
Just then, Mark, Cathy, and Crystal walked up along wiht the rest of the pack.
"Matk...." Julien gave him a hearty handshwke. "I'm so glad to see you here. Wehn I heard that Alpha Chavez had now taken over as Alpha, I was worried."
"Please," I interjected. "Call me Jessica. And Mark is still an intrigal part of the pack leadership. I assure you."
"Thank you, Julien," Mark said and thne turned to Crystal. "This is my fiance Crystal, and her friend Cathy."
Julien nodded and smiled, but didn't offer him his hand. "Welcome. Well...." He turned to Lacey. "Shall we?"
"Indeed," Lacey replied, taking Julien's arm to let him lead her in, and Dakota and I walked by her side. "I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty in having the chef prepare you lunch. Are you hungry?"
"Yes, thank you," I replied, assending the stairs to the huge plate glass wall of windows and double doors. ""That was very gracious of you."
Lacey chuckled. "It was the least I could do. I'm so happy you came to visit. I'm sorry it was under these circumstances, but you and Dakota will have to come again soon when the threat has passed."
"We look forward to it," I said, looking over at Dakota, and he was smiling.
We entered the castle into a grand foyer. A staircase set on the left and then there were other doors down the hallway.
Julien led us to an open door on the left. "Welcome! I thought we'd discuss our business over lunch in a more intimate setting. Since your pack is small, I thought we'd use our private dining hall."
"Thank you," I replied. "It was very kind of you and Lacey."
Julien pulled Lacey to his side, beaming down at her. "It's our pleasure."
When we entered the small dining hall, beautiful landscape paintings adorned the walls in gold frames, setting off the room, and a buffet was lined up on the right. Servers stood on the sides of the buffet in case anyone needed anything, and two other servers stood ready with drinks.
"Please!" Julien said, stretching out his arm toward the buffet. "Help yourself. Once everyone is seated, then we'll discuss business."
"Thanks, Julien," Dakota said, shaking his hand.
Julien gave him a sly smile. "So, you've been keeping this beautiful creature a secret, have you?" He chuckled, looking over at me.
"And you've been keeping sectets, too," Dakota teased looking over at Lacey. "Your wife is lovely."
"And so is yours," Julien said.
"We're not married yet," he replied, "but soon."
Julien smiled. "Mkae sure not to let this one slip away."
Dakota chuckled. "Oh, I don't intend to."
Julien gave him a friendly slap on the shoulder. "I'm glad to see that you've finally found your mate."
Dakota nodded, smiling. "And you, yours."
Julien shrugged. "When you know, you know. Right?"
"Yes, indeed."
Dakota and I went through the buffet line after Julien and Lacey, as everyone followed suit.
Once everyone was seated, Julien tapped the side of his crystal glass. "I'm so glad that all of youw ere able to make it today." Then he looked over at me. "Jessica, is this all of the members of your pack?"
"Yes, sir," I replied, and then went around the table and introduced everyone, also pointing out the witches, vampire, and hybrids, too.
Julien nodded. "I'm so pleased to see that many of you are from different species but are all a part of the pack. Your pack is an inspiration to us all."
"Thank you," I replied, beaming at our pack.
"Before we get started," Julien said, folding his hands on the table. "Which one of you is Raina?"
She held up her hand.
"Please stand," Julien replied.
"Yes, sir" she replied, standing as Lexie frowned, sitting at he rside.
"From here on out," Julien began, "If you have a problem within your pack, you must first go to your Alpha. Then if you are not satisfied, then go to the Beta of the pack. Then if an agreement is not reached, a meeting with the heads of the pack, including the Alpha, Beta, alpha Trainer, and other leaders of membership is to be held. And then and only then, if you are not satisfied with the results of your Alpha Council, you are to report it to the Alpha and the Alpha will contact me for arbritration with the Alpha Queen and myself. Is that understood?"
Raina gritted her teeth. "Yes, Alpha Grey."
He studied ehr for a moment and then said. "You may sit." Once she was seated, then looked around the table, his eyes kind. "You are a pack. And from the look of it, a strong pack. Please, learn to pull together as a pack. I know there has been changes in leadership, but it appears that Jessica, Dakota, and Mark have matters in hand. I can assure you that Jessica is not running this pack alone. But as the Alpha, the final decision is ultimately hers. Is that clear?"
"Aye!" eveyrone said in unison.
"Good." Julien nodded. "Now, tell us again what you know about this impending Apocolypse. I would like the Alpha Queen to hear hwat you told me."
"Yes, sir," I said. Then I spent the next half hour telling them what we knew, that the Devil came on the Winter Solstice to wreak havoc and recruit, and will come back at the Summer Solstice to attack. I then told them that the Devil plans to make an appearance and check in at the Vernal Equinox. I also told them that they plan to capture me as the sacrifice.
My father gasped, but said nothing. I had been hoping to spare him that detail, but he needed to know.
"Have they made an attempt to capture you?" Julien asked.
I nodded. "Yes. Two attempts have been made: the first was a demon and the second a hellhound."
"And you survived?" Lacey asked, her eyes wide in disbelief.
I nodded. "Yes. I fought them, but The Great Spirit gave me the Amulet of Protection to help."
Julien and Lacey leaned closer. Then Julien nodded toward Tiara and Crystal. "You should work with your witches to learn how to use its magic."
I nodded. "I knew it had qualities of protection and it also serves as a weapon, but I didn't know it gave me magic to use with spells."
A crease formed between Julien's eyes. "I'd work with it and see. But from the look of it, it will provide you with whatever you need." He nodded, letting out a deep breath. "Jessica, The Great Spirit has given you a great gift. Make sure to use it wisely."
"And never take that off," Lacey replied. "From the other attacks, you'll need it."
"I've been teling her that, too." Dad chuckled.
i nodded. "Thank you. I never take it off. I assure you all." I looked over at Dad and eveyrone laughed.
"You also said that you have agents... Nephillim... that have infiltrated the cult?" Julien asked.
I nodded. "Yes. They are shapeshifters, too, and have taken the form of High Demons from Hell. So when we go in, they can't be killed."
Julien smirked. "Wehn we go in, you'll need to warn them not to be in their demon form so an accident doesn't happen."
"Yes, sir," I replied. "I'll make sure they know."
Julien bit his lower lip and then released it. "Do you know why they want you as a sacrifice?"
"The Devil has been wanting me to join him, but I've refused." I shrugged. "I think he just wants me in particular to make a point."
"I sincerely don't think so," Lacey said, tilting ehr head to the side. "What is the name of the cult?"
"The Sisterhood of the Damned," Crystal replied.
Lacey nodded, leaning forward. "I don't think they want to kill you... at least not your body. I'd bet the Devil wants to take over your body."
I gasped, along with Dakota, my father, and everyone else in the room.
"You're kidding," I said, for lack of anything better to say.
"Well, think about it," Lacey said. "The Devil will be the figurehead of the cult. And if it's a sisterhood--"
"Then he'll want to be a woman," I replied, cutting ehr off. "But he can take any form he wants. Why would he need my body?"
She shrugged. "You're trusted, are you not?"
I nodded. "Yes, of course."
"Well, as I said, don't ever take off that talisman," Lacey replied. "Ever."
"So," Julien interjected, "we'll plkan to attack on the evening of the Vernal Equinox. Don't worry aobut housing us. I'm not sure how long we will stay and we will nmake our own arrangements. In the meantime, I want weekly checkins with you. also, if you aquire any new information, call me right away. Is that udnerstood?"
I nodded. "Yes, Alpha Grey."
Julien nodded. "I don't want to take the chance on this getting out of hand. after all, we're speaking of the Devil and his minions here. It's nothing to take lightly."
"Yes, sir."
"Now, the Alpha Queen and I would liek to tell youa bout our new iniative," Julien announced. "We are trying to unify the packs. Also, every pack is now required to have an iniation process for new members. In addition, once a shifter is accepted, he or she cannot change packs for five eyars. I don't want packs to have a revolving door." Then he looked aorund the table and smiled. "But it seems that all of you have that in hand. You are an inspiration to us all. We should all be so tolderant of not only our same species, but with other species, as well."
"Thank you, sir," i said.
"Also, I have started an Alpha Council," Julien said, "And I'd like you, Dakota, Caleb, and Mark to attend. If there are any disagreements among packs, the Alpha Council will be the time to air them."
By the time lunch came to a close, I felt we had a plan with the understanding that everything would be finalized before the attack. Julien's knowledge of tactics, precision, and attention to detail was unprecidented. How he came to be the Alpha Supreme was clear. Although he was kind and understanding, it was clear that he was indeed a force to be recconed with. I was glad tha the was on our side.

“Are you sure you’re going to be okay?” Michelle asked. I really must have looked bad for Michelle to be this concerned. “I can drive you home and my dad can follow us....” Michelle rambled on, but I could hardly hear what she was saying. The buzzing in my ears was now a roar, like a freight train running back and forth through my head from ear to ear.

“I have to go, Michelle,” I said, pulling away from the curb, barely giving her time to close the door as I sped off. But I didn’t make it home. I made it as far as Granby Lake when the shaking was so uncontrollable that I had to pull over.

I threw the car into park and the keys under the mat in the driver’s seat. My body was shaking and quivering as pain coursed throughout my body. I screamed, almost a howl, as I ran for the woods. I didn’t know why, but I had the sudden urge to run, to let the coolness of the evening air soothe my skin... to be free.

My body shook uncontrollably as I ran faster than I had ever run before into the forest. The quivering ran from my hands and traveled throughout my body as I ran even faster, pushing harder, losing control of my body. What was happening to me? I screamed as I looked down to see my hands shimmering, changing into giant silver paws, but my screams ended in a howl as the quivering traveled down the length of my body, morphing and changing every cell. By instinct, I leapt into the air and my clothes shredded into pieces. I landed on four paws, running even faster. To where? I didn’t know. Was I going crazy? I looked around and nothing looked familiar. Where was I?

“This can’t be happening to me!” I thought, sprinting through the forest into the Colorado Rockies, as variations of pine and aspen rushed pasted. If I were in my human form, I would have been crying. As it was, dampness seeped from my eyes, soaking the fur underneath. I was almost to Wyoming when I heard voices inside my mind. I am going crazy! I thought to myself, as my powerful claws dug into the lichen along the forest floor, propelling my body even faster. To where? I didn't know.

With one last, satisfied look at herself she made her way down the winding staircase smelling the delicious aromas of breakfast making her mouth water with anticipation. Her current pack-house's lead cook, an Omega named Homer, was literally the most amazing chef this side of the Midwest… that she knew of anyway. Aurelia made her way to the gigantic and sturdy, natural oak breakfast table where she saw her mother, Carissa, her mother's husband Alpha Demetrius, and their twin boys, her half-siblings, Leonidas and Lucas. She chuckled as she watched her younger brothers quarrel over the remnants of breakfast and chocolate milk, gave her mother a quick kiss on her flushed cheeks, and said hello to Demetrius as she sat down to eat. Aurelia, ravenous, loaded her plate with crispy bacon, mouth-watering blueberry muffins, and a delicious strawberry-banana crepe. 


"Good morning, Evie! Your mother and I have some wonderful news!" Demetrius exclaimed. Aurelia almost choked on her breakfast, thinking they were announcing they were expecting again, swallowed and quirked her eyebrows in interest. Taking another bite of her heaven-sent blueberry muffin she listened as her mother excitedly stated "Not only is it your brothers' Baptism of Fire and Initiation Celebration but we also received news that the Royal Storm Riders Pack will be present for their Baptism of Fire! News arrived that their Alpha, Adrian Marcos Vassilis, King of All Alphas will be amongst those arriving to initiate your brothers into our pack, Whispering Woods, officially"! Aurelia's jaw almost hit the hardwood floor in amazement as her mother carried on "It's also rumored that the King Alpha still hasn't found his fated mate and he will take no other in place of her! So romantic! Oh, Aurelia darling you are almost 21 and have yet to find your fated mate as well! Even if the King Alpha isn't your fated mate, he is bringing his next in command Beta Orian Eros Cirillo and Gamma Nikolaos Ajax Masalis, as well as many other revered members of their pack. The GREATEST pack in this entire nation! Pray Dear Moon Goddess you find your mate today, Aurelia". 


 Wow, she used my birth given name so, she probably had actually prayed to Selene, the Mood Goddess, for me to find my fated mate more than this once. However, Aurelia had to watch her mother grieve, almost to death, for what felt like an untold amount of years over the loss of her father, Cassis; Gamma of the former Silver Moon Pack. She had not looked forward to her 18th birthday when she would finally be able to discover her mate fated to her by the Moon Goddess. Now almost three years later, those same fears she had on the eve of her 18th birthday rushed back into her core and she had the slightest urge to fake 'feeling sick' just to avoid this celebration at all costs. Instead, she flashed a smile and managed to get out between bites "I'm sure if the Moon Goddess wills it, it will be" and quickly hurried to busy herself with finishing her plate.


 As Aurelia ate, watching the people she loved most laugh and interact, she remembered back when things were explicably darker in her and her mother's lives and when that darkness started to slowly fade into the background. Ten years ago, her mother met Alpha Demetrius Apollo Kyriaku while trying to seek asylum for us into a strong pack when we heard news that Silver Moon Pack was taken over by those same feral Rogues who murdered my father and so many others. Those filthy Rogues had the audacity to rename our home pack, along with other packs they've overtaken, the Blood Moon Pack. We had to seek asylum, first, as it is too dangerous for two lone she-wolves to live outside a pack and well, second, my mother and I knew from experience what can happen to packs that lack in numbers or are too isolated from other packs. Demetrius was the Alpha of our 2nd and current pack, Whispering Woods, the 3rd largest pack in the nation and 2nd largest in the Midwest. Alpha Demetrius had lost his fated Luna, a human named Raquelle, before they could complete their mating bond, to a fatal car accident three years ago.


 Demetrius and her mother were drawn together by their shared sorrow of losing their fated mates. While her mother and Demetrius weren't fated by the Mood Goddess, they had a wonderful bond and marriage. Her mother has been Luna to Whispering Woods Pack for about 18 months and after only 6 and a half months of marriage they had conceived the twins. You wouldn't believe it now but her mother was broken by her father's death. Aurelia helped take care of her; she brushed her hair, picked out her clothes, helped her with household chores, and would often find herself consoling her mother until she finally slept. In those moments looking down upon her puffed, red face which was always streaked from tears of heartbreak, of tragic loss, Aurelia prayed she would never find her Moon-fated mate. She prayed she would never have to know the searing pain and heartache that her mother felt the day her father died to protect them.  


 "Evie, there are many preparations to make for tonight's festivities and we would love to have your help, if you're able, to assist the Omegas in setting up the Recreation Hall for the twin's Initiation Celebration. Your mother and I will be preparing the Sacred Grounds and calling upon our pack's Kin-Fetch to bless the boys' baptism this evening." Demetrius stated as he picked her mother up into a bear hug, twirled her around, and planted a loving peck to her nose. Aurelia couldn't help but smile, thankfully, at the scene in front of her and began to help some Omegas clear the table as she said "It would be my honor" and with that Aurelia gave a wave to her family and headed from the pack house, onto a stone path, into the woods.

Aurelia Evelyn Amerie Aviti, Evie to her close friends and family; experienced the horrific tragedy of her father's death and the demise of her home pack, Silver Moon, when she was only 9-years-old. She had to relive that same nightmare over and over, every night she went to sleep. She feared finding her mate fated to her by the Moon Goddess, Selene, after watching her mother, Carissa, almost grieve to death when the Moon-Fated Mate Bond was severed after her husband, Cassius, Aurelia's father, was murdered.

 Aurelia was born under a very rare Super Blue Blood Moon. There has been talk; rumors that this rare moon would take place again over this year's Winter Solstice. There is a prophecy about The Chosen; The Prophesied Wolf, that states when a wolf born under the light of a Super Blue Blood Moon receives their Baptism of Fire; they will be bestowed with divine gifts, rare abilities, given by The Moon Goddess. These abilities will help assist The Chosen in fighting an epic battle for the lives of Selene's children; her werewolves. 

 When Aurelia realizes that she may be this "Chosen; Prophesied Wolf" and finds out that her Moon-Fated Mate is the King of All Alphas, Adrian Marcos Damon Vassilis, of the Royal Storm Riders Pack; she's both apprehensive, yet exhilarated by the connection that they already share. Adrian sweeps Aurelia off her feet, vowing to protect her and keep her safe from harm. Per her mother's request, she travels with Adrian to Isle Royale, off of the Keweenaw Peninsula in the Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan; where the Royal Storm Riders Pack's Capital Palace resides. 

 On this journey, Aurelia experiences her nightmare from a different perspective. She watches her younger self as she witnesses the destruction of her home pack, Silver Moon, and her father's murder firsthand. Unbeknownst to her, she's an Ansin, and is unaware that she's actually astral projected herself into the past. She understands that this wasn't her usual night terror when she screams as she watches her father die; and the sinister evil who murdered him senses her presence and reaches out for her. The moment Aurelia awakens, she's suddenly aware of the claw-like rips made in her dress. 

She realizes that this evil will come for her with all it's might. It will stop at nothing to have her; body and soul. 

 Will Aurelia give in to the Moon-Fated Mating Bond? Will she accept her path as a Destined Queen and Warrior, if she is The Chosen; The Prophesied Wolf?

"Thank you Alpha Kaden and Luna Jessica for your alliance and it was also a pleasure staying at Deditus and being able to experience your hospitality", Riyana thanked the couple as she was all set to move to the next pack. Currently they were all seated in the pack house's dining hall devouring the delicious breakfast specially prepared by the Luna before their departure, finally the twenty one months journey of hers was going to end; there is only one more pack which is yet to be visited. The trip went well than she had anticipated, a few Alphas were reluctant but she proved herself worthy to be their ruler so, so far there was no need for proclaiming a war. 

"It is our honor your highness and I also wish you best of fates for your impending journey." the Alpha replied. 

Deditus is a Latin word translating to Devoted; this pack is worldwide known for their devotion towards their Goddess, community and their leader. 

"Which is your next destination Princess?", the Luna piped, during her stay in Deditus, Riyana observed that the young Luna is very curious wolf, she does have the motherly characteristics of a Luna, she was also a very bright and cheerful person like her mate but whereas the Alpha behaved reserved around her due to her rank, the she-wolf didn't mind much about it which perked up her interests. 
She was about to answer, when Henry bet her to it. 

"We are going to visit Fidens territory next, it is our final destination." he replied. 

"But Fidens is the nearest pack to the castle isn't it,then why are you visiting it last?" a very confused Luna asked. 

Riyana understood where she was coming from so she explained," Yes, Fidens is our neighboring pack, we thought to visit it at last because well be able to reach the castle immediately once the purpose is over, everyone tends to get impatient when they realize that they are nearing their journeys end." 

Jessica nodded understanding, she turns to the Alpha and saw worry etched on his normally clear visage, she had noticed him stiffen the moment Henry mentioned Fidens, and she do have a hunch regarding it. The Alpha of the Fidens has the reputation of being the most powerful and ruthless. He is the most youngest Alpha to take charge in decades, he took his place as the Alpha when he was fourteen years old and has made it prosper better than ever before in his rule of  eleven years. She has not met him in person, but has definitely heard about him. 

"It is time or us to leave, thank you for the breakfast Luna", Henry stood up from his seat as the clock struck nine. Riyana stood up following the suit. She once again thanked couple and the other pack members before making her way towards the car. 


"You can rest in this room Princess, I hope it is comfortable to you." the Beta led her into a room. 
"I once again apologize on behalf of our Alpha it was an emergency that's why he could not be here to receive you." 
They arrived to the Fidens about fifteen minutes ago and were greeted by the Beta of this pack Caleb, the Alpha has went to the eastern border as the patrols informed them regarding rogue movements there. 
"I completely understand Beta Caleb, you don't have to apologize for it and the room is also very well comfortable thank you." 
The Beta nodded and left her to rest and told that he will personally come to escort her to dinner, she changed into something more comfortable and collapsed onto the bed; it was indeed a very tiring nine hour journey. 

Riyana woke up to a dimly lit room and the loud ringing of her mobile; she rubbed her eyes trying to brush away the sleep off it. The curtains were closed so she couldn't exactly say whether it is dark outside, the only source of light in the room was from the bed side lamp. 
She grabbed her mobile to check the caller id, instead she saw Reynold's face with a toothy grin, he was face timing her. Riyana checked the time, it was around seven thirty in the evening she had a lot of time before dinner and decided to attend his call. She stood up from her bed and switched on the lights, once the room was well lit she observed it. She couldn't take a good look at the room before due to her fatigue, the room was painted in pastel pink with blossoms giving a warm feeling to it and a love seat was placed in the right corner along with a small coffee table and a T.V. was mounted on the wall directly in front of it, there was a door on the right leading to balcony and to the left are wardrobes and dressers and beside it a door was present leading to the bathroom. She again walked back to the bed placed in the centre of his room and took a seat before answering the call. She also made sure that she looked presentable otherwise Rey would tease the hell out of her. 

After a long relaxing bath, she changed into a dusky pink fit and flare dress, it has an off shoulder with short sleeves and flared hem .Talking with Reynolds definitely lifted her mood. An unknown dread and anticipation filled her from the moment she arrived at Fidens. She has been feeling this way as he was nearing the end of her journey, but now it intensified by ten folds. The knock on her door brought her out of her thoughts; she quickly tied her hair into a pony tail and went to open the door. It was Caleb; he has come to escort her to the dinner as promised. She greeted him and followed him to the pack dining hall, she noticed that it was a huge hall and around hundred members were already seated chatting away among themselves happily but the most attractive feature of the hall was the huge French door at the end of the hall granting a full view of the forest. 
She was about to enter the hall when it hit her, a strong intoxicating scent, it was a heady combination of spice and woods. She heard her wolf growling within her ,she wanted to do the same ,but then restrained herself from doing anything that would  gather unwanted attention, especially her mate's. Riyana tried to slip away from the area before her mate got to sense her presence, she was about to leave when a loud possessive growl resonated through the hall. She stilled involuntarily, her body was no more processing the orders of her brain. Her head snapped back to find the source of the sound, and her eyes made contact with the stormy grey pair of eyes the shine in them spoke it all.

I princess Riyana Lupus reject you as my mate and king",her hazel eyes boring into his grey ones seeking a reaction from him.His demeanor remained calm and cold,either he is very well versed in masking his emotions or is really unfazed by her rejection.The corner of his lips slowly tilted upwards forming into smirk as he gazed at her intently.

"I hope I have made my self clear",she seethed, clearly irritated by his lack of response,then as she turned on her heels to move away from him ,her destined mate she heard him say.

"I didn't accept your rejection princess nor do I intend on doing so in future".

It was not what he said but the way he said made her halt on her steps, eerily calm.

"What do mean?",she asked over her shoulders,as anxiety creeped through her.

"I deny it",his voice calm but firm as he walked towards her his intoxicating scent engulfing her.
She turned over slightly surprised by their proximity  and his words,denial. 

"You can't" she said her voice barely above a whisper"please",he can't really do that, can he?

 " Oh well I can".

He leaned forward his breath caressing her ever so lightly sending shivers across her spine,she searched his eyes for any traces of lie ,but found none.

"I Alpha Asher Rufus deny your rejection to be and accept me as your mate".

As soon as those words left his lips her heart beat accelerated,as she anticipated whatever that is to come.She had played her part already, whatever she say  or do now will  not undo the past few minutes of her life, because she very well know what the denial will bring upon them,upon her, the wrath of the goddess herself...

He watched the scene with satisfaction as it unfolds the way exactly as he orchestrated,the heavy downpour masking his scent as he hid behind a tree,he himself will change his destiny.He deny to let go of what is rightfully his.

"Why are you following us?" I asked annoyed. 

We had just gotten into the lift, Savy, me, Killion, and Mr Bossy Pants aka Mate, who had put a hand on the small of my back protectively to guide me through the lift door as if we were passing treacherous trenches of doom. 

I should have guessed something was up based on their outfits alone. I mean, Mate being in gym gear no matter how coincidentally matching to mine was one thing - he probably just changed into whatever Killion pulled out for him. 

But Killion in gym gear? Killion only wore gym gear when he was actually going to the gym, or for Friday Training Sessions. 

I had been too distracted, I mean annoyed by Mate to notice it earlier, but Killion was wearing the same black tight t-shirt with the letter 'A' on it, but with grey capri joggers that hung too low. 

Plus there had been four water bottles on the kitchen counter. I mean I noticed it, but I didn't connect the dots.

Not until the four of us were in the lift, heading to Thursday Night Training together. Why was I slow like that?

I won't lie and say I wasn't happy to have them join us. I was always "the more the merrier" when it came to pack runs, but they were attending the wrong training group. 

"Thursday Night Training is for under 18 shifted wolves." I informed the two guys. 

"Luna is still 18. He hasn't turned 19 yet." Killion said. 

I guess that was close enough, "What about you?" 

"I'm always young at heart." Killion smiled.

Bulls***. 

"The trainers and elders had a discussion and they decided it might be more effective to group us by tiers instead of the general criteria. So your Luna and I have been demoted." Killion said with a bright smile. 

This was good thinking, but why was I not informed? No, don't tell me, it was in the calendar, in that blasted contraption called a phone that was used for almost anything else than actually phoning someone. 

Omo. I sound like an old technology adverse Scrooge. I totally never expected to fall into that category of people before.

I had always wanted my own phone. I had imagined streaming music with it, reading online novels, playing games, chatting with friends, and maybe even sharing pics and vids. In my imagination, I would be cool and all that. BUT it wasn't like that in reality. 

It's not fair, all I got on my phone was... Well I wouldn't know since I barely used it, would I? 

Bah humbug! 

"Who's in our tier?" Mate asked. I could sense the air crackle, Mate was already in his competitive mode, all set on winning. Hahaha. That was kind of cute. Omo. Urm... I mean, just a typical male wolf's over-competitiveness! 

"Harvey definitely. And very probably Ben in a year or two when he shifts. They grouped us by our wolves' strength and speed. I can't quite imagine any of the others keeping up with us." Killion informed us. 

"Luna and I would still train with the older wolves on Friday night." Killion informed me, "It's a good opportunity to build bonds with the warrior wolves."

Okay, so they're doubling up, "But shouldn't Bell be going for Saturday Night with the other mated wolves?"

"You've mated?" Killion asked. 

"Yes." I said.
"No." Mate said. 

I pointed at mate, "You're my mate. So you're mated." 

"Princess, you're skipping a few steps here." Mate said. 

I flared up, "Mine!" 
How dare he deny it? He was even wearing our bangle! 

Savy cackled. How dare she laugh!

Grrr... 

"Goddess, you're both betrothed, but not mated yet." Killion paused and looked at Bell, "Right?" 

"Right." Bell growled back curtly. He looked annoyed at Killion. 

"Just making sure." Killion smiled guilelessly. 

Savy cackled again but that was completely unhelpful. 

"What?" I asked. 

Savy just shook her head, "Don't worry about it, Sam."

Grrr...

I looked at Killion who immediately deferred, "Maybe you should ask your Luna, goddess." 

Grrr...

I looked at Rebel who smirked condescendingly, "I'll explain when you're older." 

That did it! 
"I'M NOT A KID!" I pretty much alpha bombed in the lift. 

"Sam! Don't do that in an enclosed space." Savy yelled back. 

Who dares yell at the Alpha? Tell me! 

My hair had literally hit the roof. 

"Calm down, baby." Mate tried to sooth my wolf.

Who dares call the Alpha 'baby'? I snarled back, ready to bite off his hand. He retracted his hand.

The lift door opened and Killion held the door while Savy all but stumbled out. I felt a little sorry for bombing alpha control like that. Just a little.

Mate guided me through the lift doors again as if they were the steel jaws of death itself. So damn protective, as if anything could hurt me, much less an elevator. 
 
"Sam, it's okay, calm down and think." Savy tried to reason with me, "It's not hard. You can figure it out." 

"Of course I can! I not stupid." I blurted out. I'm super annoyed at the way everyone else knew whatever it was they were not telling me.

I stalked across the third floor corridor being annoyed. 

"No one thinks you're stupid, Sam." Savy soothed, and then she grinned evilly at Ki and Bell, "Maybe just a little slow." 

SLOW? WHO THE HELL THOUGHT I WAS SLOW? I'll show them slow! I'll punch them so hard their tears will fall in slow motion!

"This is going to be a rough night." Killion realised.

Savy cackled, "You could just explain it to her." 

"I can figure it by myself!" I insisted. Stupid guys, acting all superior. 

"And if I say you're my mate, then you're mated!" I yelled at Bell. Stoopid! He's mine. 

"Shhhh... Goddess, the entire packhouse will hear you." Killion cautioned. 

I clamped my mouth shut and took the stairs down to the opened second floor corridor. We made our way down to the training hall without another word. 

Why should I care that the entire packhouse heard it? Well, actually I didn't care. I just shut up because when Killion said that, I could feel Mate actually slightly panicked through the mate bond. Was he shy? 

Well fine, I won't shout it from the rooftop, that was embaressing for me too. But he was my mate. So why did he say he was an unmated wolf? Stoopid mate. Mine. Grrr...

I'm so angry that I couldn't even think in complete sentences anymore, either that or Wolfie had taken over. Who knew? 

But it was Thursday Night training and I was ready to run and punch something hard. Grrr... 

I stalked into the training hall, flinging the doors open so that it crashed. Killion entered almost immediately after, catching the door from slamming backwards into Savy. 

The other teens immediately stopped whatever they were doing.

"The Alpha and Luna are here." Killion announced. 

Everyone made a quick bow.

The mats were set up and Hank was waiting. Harvey moved forward to meet us.

I took a deep breath and released it evenly, whatever. I shrugged and put on my best smile. I was the Alpha. No matter how I felt it was time to train with my pack. 

Harvey made his way over to my side the moment we entered the training hall. I saw Savy slip off to join the other girls. There weren't many girls who continued warrior training after shifting, but they were all here: Marissa, Lola, Jessica, and Savy. 

Oh, I wanted to go to them, but I had two betas and Mate to shake off first. 

"Good evening, Princess, Luna." Harvey greeted, "Congratulations on your betrothal." 

"Thanks Harv." Rebel accepted Harvey's handshake and somehow it morphed into one of those buddy handshakes that guys do. 

"Delta Hank had made some changes to the system in order to improve the effectiveness of the training. They have decided to rank the shifted wolves in tiers according to their ability. This would allow more targeted training for each tier. It would also allow us to train together with our Alpha and Luna for future missions together. This new reorg will also increase the safety and comfort for the female trainees, allowing them to train together in an all-female tier."

"Delta Hank will be announcing this new tier system today. The members of each tier are also expected to spar for ranked placements. Members from other tiers are allowed to challenge members from upper tiers to move up tiers if they are dissatisfied with their placements."

"Princess, if I understood the new system correctly, you would be by default tiered with the other females. Should you wish to change tiers, you would have to challenge and win someone in the tier of your choice." 

"I believe that is the gist of it. Please do let Ki or I know if there is anything else we can assist you with." 

Did you hear that Ki? That's the way a good Beta should report. 

Rebel nodded, "Yeah, alright. Thanks Harv." 

Harvey smiled, "Welcome to Thursday Night Training Luna."

Hank's whistle blew and I realised I hadn't warmed up yet. Grrr... Oh well, we gathered in the usual semi circle. 

"Alright, the trainers had a meeting earlier this week and we had made some changes to the training system."

"This is to step up the effectiveness of the previous evening once a week we have for training." 

"But before I explain the system, I would like to welcome Beta Ki from Friday Night Sessions. We also have our future Luna with us tonight. Perhaps Sam might be able to introduce him better." 

In this way, Hank very suddenly handed the time over to me. 

But this was my pack. I grinned widely, "Everybody meet my Luna, Bell. He's mean and bossy, please take care of him." 

Bell raised a brow at me, and the wolves from my pack laughed and clapped. Even the Morning Light goons. I guess they must have heard something about Luna Bell who could play pool and the guitar from the others by now.p

"If I may add goddess?" Killion asked. 

I nodded, sure, whatever. 

"Outside our pack, our lovely Luna Bell is also known as James Rebel Lorent the Third, Alpha Heir to the Lorent Pack." Killion smiled. 

Rebels face remained stoic and he seemed completely indifferent to the reference to his pack and lineage. 

But the other wolves became quiet very quickly as they regarded the future alpha of the Lorent pack.

"Please note that photography and videography of the main Lorent family members without written permission is strictly prohibited by Lorent law, and even though we are in Night Leaf, I would advise against causing unnecessary trouble with our neighboring pack." Killion stated, smiling his usual adept smile. 

Hank immediately picked up the reins, "Alright, you heard it! There would be disciplinary action against anyone breaking this rule during training time. Am I clear?" 

"Yes, sir!" All of us said. 

"Now, I'm going to call your names. Please gather and stand in rows. From my left to right! Tier 1: Killion, Harvey, Luna. Tier 2: Link..." Hank read out all our names, tier by tier. As Harvey predicted, I was in the last Tier along with the other females. 

Next Hank got us to sit around a large mat in our groups. He explained we would be sparring for our individual rank within our tier, starting from tier one. We may also request to challenge someone from a higher tier to switch tiers. 

"You may issue the challenge at the beginning of any Thursday Night Training Session and the trainer will schedule a time for the match to take place." Hank said. 

At this point, I raised my hand. I wanted to fight Tier 1. Hank looked at me, "Yes, Sam?" 

"Like we can issue challenge now?" I asked. 

Hank looked conflicted, and then he answered, "Yes, you may, but for today, you may also wait and watch the first round of ranking fights within the tiers and then challenge after. It might be better to study your opponents first. You need to win the match to cross over." 

Oh, okay. 

"Okay, thanks." I nodded happily. This was going to be so fun! 

"Are you thinking of switching to Tier 1?" Lola asked. 

"To be with your mate?" Jessica asked shyly. Opps Jessica... I never told her.

"Harvey's really tough." Lola warned me, "Be careful." 

"Maybe Luna would let you win? You can use your charm." Jessica suggested. 

"Jessica... You know I'm hopeless with stuff like that - and there is no meaning if I don't win by my own strength." I said. 

Jessica sighed, "Sam, a woman's charm is also her strength." 

Lola laughed at that. 

Marissa who had been listening said, "The other two can't be easy to beat either. Did you see their wolves last week at the run? They were the two huge white ones."

"Marissa, are you going to switch out or the girl's tier? Jessica asked. 

Marissa shook her head, "Since Lola is here, I think I'll stay." 

So all the girls are staying together. Savy was currently leaning on my shoulder. It was completely comfortable here being with the girls. 

"Let's watch the match for now." Jessica said, "If it gets boring, Sam can tell us all about her romance with the Lorent's future alpha!" 

The girls giggled and sat closer to each other. 

"Looks like they're going to start from Tier 1. Harvey's got competition. Those two white wolves are damn hot." Marissa surprised me by saying, she cast me a quick glance, "No offense, Sam." 

Lola laughed softly and then filled us in, "The one named Ki is already 22. Luna is younger, he turns 19 in September." 

Wait, how did Lola get that information? 

Savy covered her mouth so no one could hear her cackle, "It's more fun with us girls, isn't it?" 

It's true... In a way, sitting back and listening to random details about the guys from the girls POV was pretty fun. 

"My cousin says he's the bad boy type." Jessica shared. Then she looked at me, "Is he?"

I tried my best to answer her but I couldn't. He wasn't like Marlow, who was currently my living definition of the pack's bad boy. I wasn't sure if there were other types of bad boys or if it was like a spectrum. 

I shrugged and was forced to admit, "I dunno the answer to these kind of things."

Savy shook her head and answered for me, "Bell is like a meaner and sharper version of Sam." 

WTH? What was that suppose to mean?

The other girls considered the idea with serious expressions.

"So not a bad boy. What kind of guy does that make him?" Jessica wondered.

Please, it's not really something they needed to analyse so deeply, but all three of them stared hard at me, as if the answer was found somewhere on my person.

"You know those gangster movies where the old mob boss has a super ambitious good looking capable and loyal second in command?" Savy finally said, "He's that kind of guy." 

Essentially, you're saying my mate is not a bad boy type, but a bad guy type? I remembered the time in the dungeons with the rogues... Yeah, Mate had potential for the underworld. But Savy wasn't there at the dungeon, so where did she get the idea from?

But now that she had said this, I couldn't quite shake of the image of Mate as a young black and white movie mobster. 

"We'd better be careful not to cross our new Luna." Marissa decided cheerfully. 

As oppose to crossing me? WTH. 

And then Tier 1's ranking matches begin, and it was so fun, I suddenly understood something about myself; 

Maybe this was the reason why I'd never make it as one of the girls. I remembered how the girls at Winderhill liked to sit around and watch Liam and the boys play football. I liked listening the the girls talk and laugh, but...

It's a hundred times more fun to run into the action than watch from the sides. 

I mean, it's one thing to sit back and watch Harvey or Mate play the guitar and sing. But this wasn't music, this was a fight! You know my Wolfie was a fighter wolf, right? If I died fighting in a match like this, I would have died happy. 

So there was no way I was going to sit out on tonight's fun. 

Ah wait, I want to write down each fight in more heart stopping detail. I'll try to include some of the girl's comments too, but please understand that the main point was the heart stopping action. 

The first match was Harvey VS Mate. I hope my description will do the match justice. Let me just start it on a fresh page...

Big-hearted and witty, Samantha Kingsley is the Alpha's daughter who grew up learning to meet everyone's expectations. But Samantha isn't a pup anymore, she's in high school now, and is just about to discover that her life is written by her choices. Not by dreams, or prophecies, or even the moon goddess. This girl is going to protect the happiness of her pack and everyone she loves.

Updated every night.

Volume Synopsis
VOL 1
It's the first week of school. Despite my failed attempt to make a friend, I somehow ended up surrounded by a handful of wolf classmates, got accepted by the human "cool" girls, and became a vampire's guard dog? 


VOL 2
I think I'm just starting to get the hang of school. From navigating school halls, new friends, vampires, and school clubs... 
Back home it should have been the usual drill, but things started shifting. And I urm...might have been messing around where I shouldn't.


VOL 3
I had to miss a couple of school days this week due to my ah, long term bout of "anemia". It's been pretty intense at home. My alpha position was challenged, rogues burnt down our home, I rescued my first fight dog, discovered the Lorent's secret oracle, almost rescued my mate...and accidentally stumbled into my Alpha Dad's secret.


VOL 4
My worlds collide as some members from my pack come to my school to sell concert tickets. And when Grandpa Alpha shocked us all by dying, my dad's family comes together to pay their last respects at the Night Forest Pack. 


VOL 5
It's February and the Vampire Queen is celebrating her birthday. Would Rebel's plan to escape work out? Meanwhile, I'm stuck in school dealing with high school drama, an evolving wolf, and a new human sister. In the Red Packlands, war nearly breaks out. (This might have been a very little bit my fault.)

VOL 6
It's the week of Valentine's Day, but I've got a highschool play, Lorent drama, Vampire slaying training, and an underground army to deal with first. And then warlock weather threw an extended snowstorm at us. The whole of Green Packlands goes into lockdown - but what about Valentine's Day?

VOL 7
Exams are a week away, and it feels like my time at Winderhill is really coming to a close. I'm trying to be a good student, but there are paparazzi camped outside my school, I ran with rogues (I'm shocked too), Maria just had to enter her dark cycle in school...My life is too exciting to study for exams.

VOL 8
It's exam week, but I've got far greater problems brewing at home. The prophecies are merging. River's stone had unlocked warlock trouble, the rogue king has moved in, and then there's Uncle Louis' economical problems... one at a time. Just let me survive Code Black and figure out what's going on at Heller's first, and I'm sure everything else will work out somehow.

VOL 9
Its the last week of school and the exams are over. Its like for better or worse, all the big bad things are over now. At home, My pack works to clean up the aftermath of the rogue war, the warlock's defeat, and Jude's betrayal. In school, everyone treats me more or less the same... like a freak. Meanwhile, our school play is in dire straights, and as the Last Hurrah's debut draws near, I get ready to say good bye to Winderhill for good.

While Aosh was dumbfounded and processing the information he just learned Tiza had begun to ask around the room for the student's names and their expectations for the class. Finally he came to Aosh.
"And what's your name, stud?" The words came out cocky and was a jab at the fact he was the only male who had entered the class, as if Aosh wasn't already painfully aware. Aosh fumbled to find words, his brain frazzled by a sudden rush of nerves and emotions. Which was very unlike him, he was usually a very collected guy. His mouth was dry as he opened it to proclaim who he was, to tell Tiza who he was.
 
"I'm sorry I'm late everyone! The wife wasn't feeling too good so I had to take her to the clinic." The tawny-haired man entered the room quickly, cutting of Aosh before he could even say anything.
"I'm Sean Jeannot. Tiza's brother and former teacher. I'll mostly be here to supervise and help with positioning occasionally. I am by no means teaching this class, but making sure Tiza starts his first class on the right foot." He brushed his bangs from his face and smiled wholeheartedly.
Tiza clapped his hands excitedly.
"Alright now let's get started with some stretching and basic positions. Everyone, find a spot on the bars!"
 
For the rest of lesson Aosh was really at a loss for words. Well more than he was before. He honestly couldn't take his eyes off of Tiza. He's almost too afraid to blink ,in fear this all being a dream. It was real however. Just as real as the burn he felt in his thighs and ankles as he practiced the stretches and positions Tiza put them in. Aosh had to admit to himself he was rather bulky to be moving like this. He was all muscle and there was nothing elegant about him trying to accomplish these exercises. At one point the Omega had come up to him to adjust his hips when the Alpha attempted the fourth position. His slender hands barely touched him,guiding the other into the correct angle.
"It's easier if you relax, you know." He cocked an eyebrow at Aosh.
 The faint body heat coming from where Tiza stood behind him was causing his brain to short circuit.Opening his mouth to say something, nothing came out. His mind was too focused on the tingling sensation the Omega's feather light touch left on his hips. When Tiza didn't receive an intelligible answer he walked away to help position someone else.
 
It was then that Aosh decided he needed to get his act together and stop acting like a damn fool in front of the other man. He needed to confront him in private. To tell him his name, who he was, and that they were meant to be together; even if that sounded cheesy in his own head. He braced himself on the bars as he plied as wide as his legs would go. 
'After class, that's when I'll do it.' he thought as he tried to go deeper into the plie; the burn in his legs unlike any he had felt before. This is exactly why he only lifted weights.

"Alright class that will do it for today. You all did pretty well for beginners. Classes are usually held four days a week but since it is a Thursday the next class won't be until Monday. That should give you all plenty of time to get the appropriate attire from the front office." Tiza dismissed the class for the day; all of the students talked amongst each other and began gathering their things.
Aosh made a beeline for the Omega who was about to walk out the studio. Just as he was close to reaching him two women stepped in front of him.
"Hey! You did really great in class today."
"Yea, I didn't think you could bend like that."
"You want to come to the drink bar with us? It'll be our treat." 
"Not interested." He said rather bluntly and pushed passed them ,then out the door.
Tiza was nowhere to be found. 

Aosh sighed into his hands as he sat down on the steps that lead up to the main entrance of the fitness complex. If he had just said something during class he could have avoided all this. Now he would have to wait until next Monday to confront the man about who he was. A small ring sounded from his phone and he rubbed his face before he pulled it out of his pocket to answer it.
 
[ Where the hell were you Aosh? You left Hunter and I looking like idiots.]
It was Marcus. 'Good.' Aosh thought. Now he could chew him out for leaving him to his own devices in that class.
{Where was I?? Where were you?? You left me alone in that ballet class full of women. I had to fend for my life.}
[Ballet class? Dude you were supposed to sign up for the hip hop class. Wow. It doesn't matter anyway that Omega babe wasnt teaching the class the other dude was. Hunter and I already got our money back.]
{It would be nice if we all had agreed on that. It was like that class was filled with a bunch of horny school girls. Anyway something good came out of it.}
[ Man of course you would end up surrounded by women. Just my fucking luck. What happened,did you score?]
Aosh rolled his eyes. It took him awhile to figure out how to word what he'd type next.
{You're not going to believe it but that Omega is my fated mate. I didn't get a chance to introduce myself, but I think I'll stick in the class another week so I can do it properly. Honestly, I have to thank you dude. If you haven't had the idea to take these classes in the first place I would've never met him. Seriously man, thanks.}
 
Aosh wished he could express how grateful he was via text without it turning out to be a couple paragraphs long. This much would suffice until he was able to see Marcus again in person.

 Marcus could be an asshole ,but sometimes he was a good friend. Even if the two men didn't share the same opinion of fated mates, maybe Marcus could appreciate what he experienced and see things the way he saw them for once. 'Love didn't have to be as difficult as he made it.' Aosh thought. He had left things to fate up to this point and everything was turning out just fine, despite the fact that he had to wait three more days to see his fated mate again. To him this amount of time was insignificant, he had been waiting for this moment for seventeen years after all.
After a few minutes went by without a response from Marcus, Aosh got up and headed down the street; realizing that he was going to be late for work if he didn't run home now to get changed.
                       ..................….

The weekend seemed like it dragged on forever. This was most likely due to his excitement in seeing his potential mate again. The mundane tasks he had to endure at work and the lack of school work to be done made it feel like time came to an aggravating halt.
There was a silver lining to the wait. Having three days to build up his confidence and figure out what he was going to say is exactly what the nervous Alpha needed. Most of the empty time was filled with Aosh writing what he was going to say, rehearsing it, and re-writing it again. God forbid he was a bumbling mess in front of the ballet instructor again. 

It was odd, he thought. Neither Marcus or Hunter had returned his text messages over the weekend. Aosh tried not to let it get to him,but a familiar feeling of dread filled his thoughts. Even now as he walked briskly up the fitness complex's steps the feeling wouldn't go away.

The Alpha forced himself to push it to the side; there were bigger things to focus on. He decided to arrive early to today's dance lesson. Determined to not make a fool of himself,especially in front of all those women, he wanted to try and catch the Omega before class started so they could hopefully talk in private.
After stopping by the locker room to drop off his duffel bag and changing into some loose fitting clothes he traveled to where the dance studio was.
 
Coming to the double doors that led to the studio, Aosh peaked in and saw no one inside. He didn't think Tiza would be there to be honest, so he continued down the hall and made a left to where the offices were. Going down the hallway that housed the offices his eyes swept up to the signs above the doors to find the right one. He finally found the right door at the end of the hallway, but paused mid-knock as he heard voices from the otherside.

"-he doesn't deserve someone like you."
"Who are you talking about? Get out of my office-"
Silence.
"Oh? You going into heat? For me? That just proves we're meant to be together."
"I don't want to be with anyone- LET ME GO!"
A crash, a thud, and more silence. Without hesitation, Aosh burst through the door. As the door swung open it brought with it the sweet smell of Omega pheromones. The concentration of it smacked Aosh in his senses and made his head spin if only for a moment. But it didn't last.Before his eyes he saw Tiza,belly down on the ground,pinned under Marcus.
The blonde was flushed with anger and heat, his wide feral eyes brimmed with tears; plump lips curled around the hand that tried to keep him quiet. Biting into the flesh and causing it to bleed, the Beta above him pressed Tiza's slender body into the cold tile floor in response.
 
"Well..speak of the devil-" Marcus' words were cut short as Aosh lunged at him, dragging him off Tiza by the collar of his shirt and holding him against the office's back wall. Immediately scrambling off the floor when the weight was lifted off of him, Tiza bolted through the open door and down the hall out of sight.

"Hmph...you let him get away." Marcus leisurely said, looking over the Alpha's shoulder. Aosh was very aware he let the omega go. His entire body was screaming at him to follow after an Omega in heat; such a saccharine aroma was like a siren calling and Aosh was a sailor easily lured by it's song. It was taking quite a bit of effort on his part to not give chase. The hand holding Marcus against the wall reflected this, his grip tightening dangerously in a show of restraint in not following the pheromone trail as it slowly drifted away.
 
"What the HELL do you think you're doing?!"Aosh brought him closer to eye level and bored his obsidian eyes into the Beta.
"What does it look like I was doing dip-shit? Taking what I want, since someone isn't 'Alpha' enough to do it himself." Marcus sneered.
"Why?!Didn't you even read what I sent you?! He's my-"
"You're fated mate, yea yea, I read your message. I'm so sick and tired of this fated mate bullshit, Aosh. Fated mate this, fated mate that. Fuck you, Aosh. You want to know why I'm tired of it?" Marcus stood up straighter and got in Aosh's face.
"Because Alpha's get everything on a silver platter, while Betas get the scraps. Do you know what it's like to get sloppy seconds your entire life, asshole?!" Marcus punctuated that last word with a knee to Aosh's stomach. The Alpha stumbled back and Marcus wasted no time throwing a punch to his chest; sending him slumping against the only desk in the office and then onto the floor. Marcus mercilessly kicked his side as he continued.

"Alphas can have any Beta or Omega they want, but a Beta can't even get an Omega to look their way! We have no ruts or pheromones to attract them! We're not blessed with brains or physical ability from birth! So excuse me for being a little underhanded in getting what I want. Excuse me for sticking around your sorry ass thinking that your good reputation you were gifted at birth would get me somewhere by association! Letting an Omega in heat get away from you, you really are a waste of an Alpha." 
Those last four words were spat out in utter disgust. Marcus went for one last kick, but before he could, Aosh's hand shot out to catch his foot and pull it. Unceremoniously the Beta toppled over giving Aosh an opportunity of attack. Marcus couldn't even retaliate before he was sucker punched between the eyes.

The Beta was punched so hard his head hit the tile and he was knocked unconscious. Aosh crouched over him. His breathing came out shallow and his brows were furrowed in anger; hot tears pricked at his eyes as he stared at the man he once called a friend.
 It happened again.
 It's not like he didn't expect it to not happen again, but he always hoped it wouldn't.Yet here he was, his heart stretched in two directions. One by the Omega he desired who was out of his reach once again, and the other by the Beta he had the heart to call a friend; only to find out that the other never even considered him as such.

 Aosh told himself he should be used to it by now, it wasn't the first time he had been used by others just because he was an Alpha. Even so,things had ended up like this and it still felt like his heart was ripped to shreds. Like a fool he put too much trust in people; they say you learn from your mistakes, but sadly for Aosh that just wasn't the case.
 He refused to let those tears shed and he refused to let his emotions get the best of him; not like punching the Beta wasn't exactly that, but the bastard started it.
A faint hint of Omega pheromones still lingered in the small office and it brought Aosh out of his thoughts. He needed to make sure Tiza was ok. The terrified expression the blonde wore when he opened the door was practically burned into his mind's eye. Resolutely he turned around, not bothering with Marcus anymore and followed the sweet trail left behind by the fleeing Omega.

                                  ..................….
 
By the time Aosh started to follow Tiza's pheromones the trail was too faint for him to tell where he had gone. His body ached where he was kicked and punched but even so Aosh went throughout the complex looking for the Omega. After running around to the main offices, the lobby, and the locker rooms with nothing to show; Aosh resigned himself to finally check the dance studio on the off chance Tiza would be there. When he walked by the studio, class had already been going on for sometime. Sean,Tiza's brother, was teaching the class but Tiza was not there. Aosh decided to wait and question his brother when the lesson was over, if anyone knew the whereabouts of his fated mate it would be him. 

After the classes, while the tired students filed out, Aosh approached Sean, clearing his throat to get his attention.
"Excuse me is Tiza-"
"Is Tiza what?" Sean's answer was short and laced with malice, that Aosh could easily tell.
"Is Tiza ok after being attacked by you and your friend? No. No he's not."Sean turned away from him to continue packing away his teaching materials.
"I had no part in what he did, and I helped Tiza."Aosh said taken aback by the hostility and being accused of being Marcus' accomplice when it was the furthest thing from the truth.
"And am I supposed to believe you? Or am I supposed to thank you? Yes, thank you. Without you who knows what would've happened to my brother. But also, without YOU and YOUR friends seeking out these classes for the sole purpose of getting near MY brother, this would've never happened. Before you say anything, yes, I figured it out; if not from you being the only Alpha in this class then it was from those other two asking where my brother was in my hip hop class. And now Tiza is being blamed by the faculty for not taking heat suppressants before coming to work and putting others in danger. The fact that he was sexually assaulted is being glossed over. But that's nothing new, considering he's an Omega." The Beta threw his duffel bag over his shoulder in a huff and brushed past Aosh to leave.

"Wait-wait! I don't have any negative intentions for your brother I just-"
"Save it! Do you know how many times he and I have been through this before? If you have no intention of taking this class seriously, get out. If you have no intention of leaving my brother alone,GET OUT." With that Sean shoved the double doors and walked away; leaving Aosh just as angry as he was before in the quiet of the studio.

Aosh Tsustumi is the textbook definition of an Alpha; devilishly good looking with the brains to match and a killer smile. Although society says Alpha’s are supposed to act a certain way, Aosh lives his life far from it. This kind hearted and sensitive Alpha only wants to find his fated mate,Tiza Jeannot, the person whose name has been scared on his body from childhood. The two have never met, but Aosh is determined to have the happily ever after he's always dreamed of.
