Chapter 1~ The golden one

"Alpha, Luna's condition is getting worse. We don't have the time to reach the pack's hospital. She needs to give birth right now."

The wed nurse ran out of the tent towards Alpha Kent who was walking back and forth in front of the tent and gave him the news. Alpha Kent was devastated. In the midst of this forest, how will his mate give birth to their child? 

"It's not safe for her, Seline. What if something goes wrong?"

Alpha Kent expressed his tension to which wed nurse Seline just could give him a sympathetic look. 

"It will be very late till we reach the pack's hospital, Alpha. I'm afraid Luna won't be able to survive that long. The baby is premature and even you know the birth of this baby is prophesied. The baby is bound to be born in the midst of his or her origin. And her origin is forest, soil, earth." 

"Do whatever you can. I want my mate and my child safe and sound and with me soon."

Seline ran inside the tent once again. The clouds clashed with each other, thunder roaring in the sky. Alpha Kent looked here and there. He could see nothing but green, deep forests. Long trees and mountains. He knew his child was born in an unnatural situation but he never knew his child would be born in such a condition. 

The earth looks like it's gonna burst and hot melted lava is gonna come out of it. The sky seems to tear apart. Small stones rolled from the top of the mountains to the ground. The light droplets of rain are a sign only that a heavy thunderstorm is waiting for them. Yet they are safe. Nothing touching them. Even the droplets of rain falling away from them. 

Alpha Kent was unable to understand this magic. He knows his child is a special born, is a prophesied child but is his child so powerful that it can control nature even before it's birth. 

The thunders were roaring even louder now. Clashing with each other, fighting to retain their position. The wind is blowing fast.

Amongst these catastrophes, a distinct crying sound hit Alpha Kent's eardrums. His movements momentarily stopped. The thunder started hitting the ground now. But nothing could bring Alpha Kent out of his shock. 

"Alpha, your princess has come into this world."

Alpha Kent turned back. Everything seemed to be in slow motion. The wed nurse walked towards Alpha Kent. A smile gracing her lips and something wrapped in that white towel she has in her arms.

Anxious, ecstatic, disbelieving, joy everything was running in Alpha Kent's veins. He started taking small steps towards that wrapped thing. His eyes held disbelief. He held the baby in his arms. A sudden surge of protectiveness kicked his senses. His arms tighten around the baby but not tight enough to hurt it. 

He peered at the wrapped baby with water lining his eyes. 

"Your wish came true, Alpha. A princess is born. The princess of Midnight Pack." 

Alpha Kent looked at his daughter who was glowing despite the dark clouds hovering over them. When her eyes fell on her father, a smile bloomed on her lips. And that smile washed away every bit of negative emotion from Alpha Kent's body. 

The little baby girl raised her hand and touched her father's cheek with her fist. As soon as she did it, the tears rolled down his cheeks. The baby girl smiled once again and with that second smile the nature calmed down. The upcoming havoc calmed down. 

"She is my princess, my baby girl, my Aurelia."

The other wolves howled in appreciation. Their howls echoing through the forest, to the depth of the soil. 

"Let's meet your mother, my little princess."

Alpha Kent walked inside the tent with his babygirl. He saw his wife laying down on the small bed made with only a few soft mattresses and a pillow. Her body looked tired but her face was glowing with that smile on her lips. Alpha Kent placed the babygirl near his mate. 

"Serena, look she looks exactly like you." 

Alpha Kent exclaimed with joy. 

"She looks like us, Kent. See her smile and sharp nose. It's like you." 

Luna Serena flicked her baby's nose softly. 

"And her eyes are like a dark green forest. So green and beautiful. Deep, expressive, alluring."

Alpha Kent said in wonder. Her babygirl is an epitome of perfection. He made a promise to himself, he won't handover her daughter to anyone even if anyone is her mate. The one who is capable of her will get the opportunity to cherish her. 

"Did you name her?" 

"Yes, Aurelia Kent. My golden little one."

Luna Serena laughed gleefully seeing her mate's awestruck face. He surely is smitten by their daughter. A sudden realization dawned upon her. 

"I'm sorry, Kent. I forced you to camp here even though the weather was deteriorating."

Luna Serena apologized. She didn't know the weather would deteriorate so much and she will give birth on her seventh month itself. 

"It wasn't your wish, Serena. Our daughter is a prophesied child. No matter what happens, even if the world turns upside down, her birth was to take place in the midst of the forest, in nature. It's her origin. She is born for this nature. And she needs to find her motive. It's not your fault."

Luna Serena sighed in relief before pulling her daughter close to her and hugging herself to her chest. Both mother daughter duo closed their eyes, a relieved expression on their faces. Alpha Kent kisses on both their foreheads before heading out of the tent where he found his Beta Sam. 

"Alpha, the high officials and the Alpha King got to know about the princess's birth. We need to report to them soon."

"Not now. My mate and my child need rest. Prepare to leave. We will leave at the first ray of sun. And call some more warriors. I want proper protection for my mate and child." 

Beta Sam nodded and went off another way. Alpha Kent looked at the sky which was now clearing. He has this feeling from the time he held his daughter, his daughter is in great trouble. He needs to protect her at any cost. Moon Goddess blessed him with his responsibility and he will lay down his life while protecting his daughter. 

*In a dark room* 

"She has taken birth. She is here in this world. She is breathing the same air as me. She has taken birth."

The two people kneeling down looked at their Master in fear. They were feeling scared for their dear life. They know, their Master's only purpose has taken birth in this world and now her destiny will be written by their master's hand. 

The man turned around, his red eyes glowing bright. He snapped his fingers and both the people slumped down on the ground. Their eyes rolled back. The man moved his hand towards them and their eyes fell out of their place. 

"The eyes who saw her are not allowed to see anything ever again." 

He stated evilly before looking at the moon which is now out of the clutches of the clouds. 

"You are born for me. Only for me." 

Years of waiting 

He lived away 

To feel her presence 

Finally she is here 

To be His 

For ever and ever thereby……..
