The coronation day finally came and Luke was fully prepared for it, dressed in a black royal suit he stood in front of the mirror waiting to be called to the grand hall.
He could feel a presence behind the door, a familiar scent he loved so much. “Voilet” he called her name and she stumbled out in fear. “I’m sorry young Alpha, I was just passing by” she said and ran away before he could utter another word. She acted so cute that he couldn’t help but smile, even though he had wanted to ask how he looked to her. He could never get the answer seeing how quick she escaped him. He turn back to the mirror staring at him, the day had finally come to fill in the shoes of his parents, to be the Alpha and rule the pack just like his parents did.“Luke, your presence is needed” Leo came to call him in, he was dressed in a blue suit.
He ushered Luke to the grand hall where a huge crowd was waiting for him. Luke did not feel intimidated as he walked towards the stage, he took a kneel before Channel who was officiating the event.“Members of the Black moon pack, we are all aware of the tragic death of our Alpha and Luna two years ago. It left a blow to our hearts and we felt despair. Today we are here to fill our hearts with joy because their son would be taking the title/mantle. It is a thing of joy to see us finally have a new Alpha” Channel announced and the crowd let out a happy cheer. The coronation event has been highly anticipated by the pack, a day their young Alpha would take up his father’s position.
Channel moved closer to Luke,
“Do you accept to be the Alpha of this pack, to lead and protect your people from any harm and put their needs before yours” he asked. “I do” Luke replied. “I can’t hear you?” Channel made fun of him despite the amount of people watching them. “I do” Luke said more firmly and louder this time with a look of death on Channel. He was years older than him but he still joke around like a teenager. “I pick this mantle today and present it to the new Alpha of this pack” he stretched the mantle to Luke who collected and stood on his feet facing the crowd. He was firm and tall with an ounce of nervousness, his eyes scanned through the crowd until they fell on Violet standing by the corner almost unnoticeable like a needle in a haystack. “Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you the new Alpha of this pack, Alpha Luke” Channel yelled. The crowd went down on one kneel submitting to Luke as their new Alpha and leader to protect and rule them.Luke let out a sigh having fulfilled his parent’s dream of him being the Alpha, he had waited a long time for him to do that, he trained day and night for him to get to where he was and he was certain that they would be proud of him. All that was left was for him to rule the pack much better than they did.
The door to the hall which had been sealed shut due to the ceremony blasted open and the man with dark brown eyes walked in.“What is the meaning of this?” Channel asked the man as he straddled forward.
“Are we all going to pretend like we are safe in the hands of a young boy as our Alpha” the man echoed to the crowd. “What do you think you are doing, Beta Ryan. Has the two years wherein you took care of this pack made you believe you can be Alpha” Channel called out to him again cautioning him, he may have ruled the pack for two years while Luke was training but that didn’t give him the right to claim the title for himself. “Be quiet channel or I will have your head on a stick in less than a second” Ryan warned him and he sealed his lips shut.Luke watched the Beta of the pack make a scene at his coronation.
“We all know that our enemies are getting stronger, do we still want a little boy to lead us to our deaths” he added. “What do you want Beta Ryan” Luke asked him. His voice was deeper and more firm as he took a stand before him not intimidated by him one bit. “I want a duel” Ryan requested of him. “You came here just so you could fight me” Luke stated and the crowd laughed. “I want a duel for the Alpha title” Ryan corrected. At first Luke thought it was a joke because why would the Beta challenge him for the title of the Alpha but when he saw the seriousness in his eyes, he knew he wasn’t playing around.“Impossible”
“How dare he when he is just a beta” “It is the Alpha’s birthright” the crowd murmured among themselves finding Beta Ryan’s request to be absurd. There was an uproar in the hall.“And if I refuse” Luke asked him.
“It just shows how weak you are” Ryan uttered knowing fully well that Luke did not want to look weak in front of his people. “Has this been your plan all along, to try to take the title of the Alpha from Alpha Luke” Channel asked him. “Alpha Luke, how absurd can that sound. I Beta Ryan challenge your Alpha Luke to a duel” he voiced out. “What am I to gain from this duel” Luke asked him. “My whole family will step down from ever taking the Beta title and I would resign but if I win then I will be the Alpha and you will be sent away from the pack house” Ryan bargained. The deal sounded good to Luke’s ear, he had always wanted to get rid of his family, both him and his annoying son who was up to be the next beta after him.Luke turned back to Channel and Leo and they shook their head asking him not accept it, he turned to his people and they were staring back at him with anticipation. He couldn’t turn down the duel because he would look weak in front of them, this was a chance to prove to them that he had trained to be an Alpha.
“Fine, I accept your challenge” he said and Beta Ryan smiled in response.
The duel was taken outside.
Beta Ryan had already changed to his Lycan waiting for Luke. The sound of bone cracking filled the air and a black Lycan was seen standing on his two feet, his eyes were red with rage and claws elongated. Luke’s Lycan Theo stood in front of Ryan’s Lycan. “Take him down” Luke whispered to Theo. “Let the duel begin” Channel rung the bell.Ryan ran as fast as he could towards Fenrir but he dodged his attack.
He sprinted towards him the second time and he still dodged it. Feeling angry Ryan pounced on him hitting his paws on his chest. Theo pushed him off him and stood on his fours, he clawed his face leaving a huge scar by the side of his eyes. He bit him down on his neck and flipped him to the ground. Ryan stood up furious, he clawed Theo by the leg and then tried to pick him up but Theo did that instead and threw him in the air then he kicked him to the wall. He picked him up again and smashed his body to the wall. Ryan wouldn’t take that attack likely he got back on his feet and charged towards Theo hitting him to the ground. Theo knocked him off in an instance. He dug his claw in his body dragging it down and that left a huge scar on Ryan. Still not satisfied, Theo picked him up in the air then smashed his body to the ground again.Ryan slowly stood up clenching his fist, Theo turned back surprised to see him stand but then he noticed something green being crushed in his hand. Ryan raced towards him but Theo caught him and flipped him to the ground, he turned his back towards him letting his guard down thinking Ryan was weak when he got stabbed. Ryan buried his claws deep into his back.
Theo could feel himself being drugged, he grew weaker by each second until he fell to the ground.
‘What is that?’ He thought to himself knowing it had something to do with the green substance which was now in his body. Theo could hardly lift his body so he laid weak on the ground.“Stand up” Leo whispered to him.
Picking up the little strength he has, Theo stood up slowly and turned to face Ryan. His breathing was uneven and so was his jawline. He raced towards Ryan who dodged it and he slammed his head on a wall. Ryan grabbed him by both legs and smashed his body to the same wall. He picked him up squeezing his neck while pinning him to the wall. His claws pierced through his chest aiming to pull out his heart thereby killing him. Theo couldn’t let that happen so he slashed his eyes making him let go of him. He jumped on him pushing him to the ground and his feet was on his neck as he kept stumping on him down to the earth to bury his head in the sand. Theo was so firm on killing him since he tried to do that to him but then his body began to fail him again. Ryan grabbed his leg and twisted it breaking his bone, he punched his body and Theo was flown away to quite a great distance causing a dent to the wall. He rushed towards him and grabbed him then he threw him to the air waiting for him to crash on the ground. A few distance between Theo and the hard floor, Ryan leaped in the air and pounced on him doubling the impact as Theo fell to the ground with Ryan on top of him. He was so weak that he couldn’t get him off him.Ryan stepped down from him and changed back to his human form with only his shorts on.
“Is this who you wanted to make Alpha” he asked the people as he took a silver knife from one of the guard. “This is who you wanted to lead you” he asked. Theo slowly stood up while he was talking to fight again when he felt a pierce into his heart. He looked down and saw a knife straight into his chest, deep enough for him to fall to the ground vomiting blood. He looked up and saw Ryan with a smile on his face watching him drop to the ground.“I am not going to stand and watch a weakling like him rule me or this pack, he may be the son of the the late Alpha and Luna but that doesn’t mean he is capable of ruling this great pack. He has just shown us that he has no skill in combat and would be easily defeated, which means this pack could be easily defeated because if our Alpha is weak then we are also weak” he stated.
Theo slowly changed back to Luke still with the stick in his chest. He watched Ryan move closer to him.
“As of this day Luke, you have been stripped from becoming the Alpha and reduced to an ordinary pack member” he uttered then leaned closer, “I have so looked forward to this day” he mocked him.Ryan took the mantle from Channel and stood before the people,
“Kneel before your new Alpha” he ordered. The pack went down on their knees kneeling to Ryan, his soul was deeply pleased seeing such a scene. He turned towards Luke who was still laying on the floor, “Lock him up in the dungeon” he ordered and the guards picked him up and took him away.“Is that really necessary” Leo wanted to challenge Ryan but Channel held him back. If Luke was no match for Ryan which was a complete surprise then Leo would be a needle for him to bend and break into pieces in no time.
“Now is not the right time” he uttered pulling him away.Three days of being locked up by Alpha Ryan, Luke lost hope that he could ever be free. His wounds were all healed up but he had no food nor tasted water for those three days. The sound of a metal stick clanging down the dungeon was all he could hear until Alpha Ryan was now standing in front of him. “How does it feel being locked up?” Alpha Ryan asked him. “I don’t know what pleasure you derive in this but I will make sure that you pay for this” he warned. His breath haggard and his eyes fixed deeply on him.He was so mad that Ryan could actually do such a thing to him such as steal his birthright. A chilling laugh escaped Alpha Ryan’s lips, “I don’t think you understand what is going on, the title of the Alpha was never meant to be yours. Do you think I would let a young boy like you lead this pack, we would be dead by our first attack” Alpha Ryan stated. He saw no faith in Luke leading the pack when he could lead it to clear victories. “Why don’t you leave that f
A week had passed and there was yet another ceremony in the pack as if the last ceremony didn’t end badly. The anticipated day for the Alpha to choose a breeder which was announced to the pack a day before the ceremony. No one had expected Alpha Ryan would need a breeder because of how old he was. His mate died after giving birth to Denver and he had been alone for a while. The breeder he will choose would bear the heir to the Alpha title , he would be the next Alpha irrespective of Denver his son because he was born when Ryan was still the Beta so he had no right to become the Alpha. The hall was swarming with unmated girls between the age of 18 to 25 who haven’t found their mates, the omegas were no exception as they were told to present themselves also. They were arranged in five consecutive lines according to their ranks and the omega were placed in the fifth line. Men and women also attended the ceremony to see who the Alpha would pick and gossip about it on their way back.
The sum beaming high up in the sky, Alpha Ryan sat in his office when Michael walked in.“What is it?” He asked seeing the worried expression on his face.“The people are infuriated” he said.“What do you mean by that?” Ryan asked raising his head slightly to look at him.Michael moved closer to him with his head down to his ears,“Yesterday was supposed to be a memorable event where you would have to pick a female from the pack as your breeder. With high expectations from the pack of you, instead of going for those with noble birth and a much higher ranking, you went straight to the line of the omegas to pick that lowly girl. Why would you do such a thing” he asked him.“It was my choice” he answered.“I know that but couldn’t you have chosen someone better and more submissive, the mess you made yesterday was a huge one and it has people conversing about it” Michael related to him. He had prepared for Alpha Ryan to pick a female from the first line but instead he didn’t bother to go
Violet was summoned to the Alpha’s office in the middle of the night which was quite surprising for her.Considering she had been caught by Denver, she was shaking uncontrollably as she walked to his office. Her hands pulled the door knob until she found Denver seated with Alpha Ryan. Her legs instantly became stiff as she stood by the door with their eyes on her.“Come in” Alpha Ryan ordered and she forced her way in despite her shaky body. Denver pressed his eyes on her then rolled them up,“I just heard strange news from my son, I called you to confirm if they were true.Son tell me what you said before” Alpha Ryan demanded. “I was returning back to my room when I decided to visit Luke in the dungeon, I found Violet with a bag in her hand heading towards there. When I asked what she was doing there, she told me she was about to dispose of the trash in her bag and when I offered to help her with it, She refused.The trash she claimed to dispose of had the scent of freshly prepared
Locked up in the dungeon for four days was Luke, he was already going crazy thinking about what could happen to Violet rather than himself. She had already been chosen as the breeder for the Alpha which meant he could go to her as he pleaded.“No” he shook his head denying such fact, the thought of his mate being with another man was killing him.“Look who we have here” A voice he detested so much said until the person stood in front of him.“I don’t remember us being close to the point that you would visit me” Luke said seeing his disgusting face.“It is also good to check up on your enemies” “You must be really happy having me locked up in here” Luke asked, he could see the obvious smirk on his face.“I am” Denver replied. Anything to feel him feel at the top while Luke was withering in the ground underneath him. He was super satisfied to see him that way, locked up, in chains, and unable to do anything as he used to.“I am not gonna hide it, I really am happy that you are in this
It wasn’t a regular day for Violet as she woke up feeling a bit thrilled.It was finally her 20th birthday and and was going to figure out who her mate truly was.She picked up a pink dress from her closet which she had gotten yesterday from the matron, the dress fitted perfectly making her smile. It was just a simple dress with flowers on it but Violet felt happy to have such a dress. She has no idea how it came about the cloth fitted perfectly on her.She tied her hair into a neat bun and stood in front of the mirror. Her beauty was already emitting from the dress while she smiled at her.Violet hoped to have some time to herself just because it was her birthday, she opened the door and noticed that the guard was missing. She didn’t think much of it and took it as an opportunity to explore her day.She went straight to the kitchen to pick up a few snacks which she put in a one-piece bag and hung on her shoulders walking away with a grin on her face.Walking right down the stairs to
Hot tears rolled down Violet’s eyes as she ran back to her room and slammed the door behind her. All her life she had wished Luke would notice her, she had wished she could confess her love to him but what could an omega do for a young Alpha?. He could have as many women as he pleased, what if he didn't like her in return as she did?.She knew he would take out some of his time to talk to her but she believed it was out of sheer kindness towards her. She had not for once thought he had felt the same thing or she could ever be chosen as his mate.Violet let her heartbreak so much, she desired Luke more than any man in her life. Just looking at him would make her heart skip, she would find reasons just to be alone with him. His green eyes on her made her heart flutter and she fell more in love with him each time they spent time talking.“Why does this have to happen to me” she questions herself.Why did her happiness have to turn to sadness, just when she could have been thrilled from ha
“What took you so long” Denver barged into the room immediately she opened it.His eyes scanned around searching for a prey.“Do you need anything?” She asked noticing how he kept on checking each corner of the room. She was lucky to have sent Luke away in time rather than hide him in her room because Denver would have caught up to him already.He opened her closet and saw nothing and then checked under the bed but still saw nothing.“What are you looking for Beta?” She asked him.He sharply turned to her,“I heard voices, who were you speaking with?” He asked her.Violet raised her eyebrows in shock and covered her lips.“What are you talking about?” She whispered to him.“I definitely heard voices coming from this room, were you with anyone?” He asked again.She took a good look at him, asking her questions doesn’t mean she was going to tell him the truth. He was the reason why she was almost raped by the Alpha. This time she decided to give him the benefit of doubt.“What do you me
