Jake
I watched as the son of a bitch I call a father leave the hall with so much arrogance. I cannot wait for tomorrow so that I can kill him, and the war can stop. This man let my mother die and has the audacity to keep bringing women here. Parading them around as Luna like my mother meant nothing.
Tomorrow will not be like the other times I challenged him for the position, and it certainly will not be like the time when I was twelve and he almost killed me. No, it will not be like any of those times. Now I am ready for him. My uncle Martin trained me well. I owe everything to that man. If it were not for him, I am sure I would have turned out exactly like that bastard.
The mating ceremony is now ruined because I challenged him for the alpha position, and I do not care much about that. I never approved of these things anyway, and this time he was going to be mating with my mate. Oh, Goddess, a mate. Why did you give me a mate when you know I do not want one?
Now when I kill William, she is going to be mine, my responsibility, which I did not want. This woman here was about to sleep with William. Not that I care, but now she is going to be my responsibility. The fool is even hiding a knife, and she thinks I know nothing about it. I only challenged William now because a maid came to ask me to help her escape.
She told me of her plan to kill William and I could not let her do that. William is mine to kill and avenge myself and my mother. I would not let this stranger take that away from me. People are talking in whispers, and I scan the room. Soon all of them will be free from that monster and they will not have to sit like this pretending to like what is going on.
My eyes land on my mate, and she looks bothered by something. Sorry, little mate for ruining your plans, but William will die by my hand, not yours. If you are angry because you did not get to sleep with the mighty alpha William, then too bad. You can sneak into his room and try your luck tonight though, so that you can have a story to tell as well.
Women can be stupid, always after dirty and powerful men like William knowing very well that they will only use them. I do not want a mate. They make a wolf weak. William is obsessed with sex and women that he does not care about anything else other than creating havoc all over in search of these women.
I do not want to be like him, and I do not want to be related to him either. Having a mate will make me no different from him and I refuse to be anything like that bastard. Because of these women, that man almost killed me twice and during the time I was recovering in the pack hospital. He never came to check on me, not even once.
My uncle was the one that has always been by my side through all those times. He cares for me and trained me in secret for this day, and I owe everything I am to him. He has been more of a father to me than my father ever was. For him, my mother, and this pack. I will kill William so that peace can reign once again.
This man has terrorized wolves long enough. For years after my mother died, I have watched him destroy pack after pack and bring different women here, mating them and making them Luna of this pack. I do not know if he was trying to replace my mother or what, but if he was, then I will have to admit that he was stupid because no one can replace a Goddess-given mate.
He should have known that and focused on being a good father to me and a good leader to this pack. But we were never enough for William and tomorrow I am going to rid our kind of him. They will not have to suffer because of him after tomorrow, and no other woman will ever set foot here in the name of being mated to an alpha here.
I do not even want this so-called mate of mine that is going to make me weak. I do not even know what the fuss is about when it comes to mates, because in my experience, nothing good comes out of having a mate. My wolf though does not agree with me, but I will understand in time why I do not want this she-wolf.
My pack members look scared. Fear is written all over their faces and shows worry in their eyes. I can understand how they feel. Some fear that this time William is going to kill me, their hope in having a better future. Some are simply scared that William will not stop at just killing me tomorrow, but a few of them as well.
That is how the mighty William is like. When he is enraged, he would slaughter anything in his path ruthlessly and without mercy. He does not care if you have offended him or not. His rage was reason enough for him to spill blood. I hope the she-wolves cleaning his floor stays clear of him because she might kill them in his rage.
I made him angry by ruining this ceremony and challenging him in front of his pack like that. I am sure right now he is thinking of brutal ways to end my life. But I will not be the one to die tomorrow. He is. I scan the room one more time and my heart breaks for the members of my pack.
They have been living in fear for a long time and have been patiently waiting for me to come of age and take over the pack. So that I can change things. I wish they had a little faith in me and my abilities. Trust that I will deliver them from the claws of William come tomorrow. But I do not blame them for being skeptical about me.
This is not the first time I have challenged William, and they have witnessed firsthand how he almost killed me each time. They think that tomorrow will be no different and that William was going to kill me for sure tomorrow.
“All shall be well. Trust that the Moon Goddess has heard all your cries through the years and have faith.” I try to encourage them. Some look at me skeptically while others look at me with newfound hope. That is enough for me. Tomorrow they will believe my words and things will change around here.
Being a powerful pack is not a problem, but being an animal like my father, then that is a problem. I say nothing else after that but start walking towards the door. But before I go any further, I look back at my mate and her face is all red. I look closely at her and she looks sick like she was going to fall off that chair any moment.
Before I can even think of what I am doing, I take large strides towards her and take her in my arms. She mumbles something I do not hear and the little weapon she had on her falls to the ground. I look at the thing. It looks like a piece of some glass. It is sharpened nicely and if she had a chance, she would have done a lot of damage to the bastard.
She wiggles in my arms, and I frown, looking at her, going in and out of consciousness. And then I make the mistake of inhaling and I freeze. Fucking hell. Why is this happening to me now? Bloody she-wolf is trying to turn me into something I am not!
I scan the room and find both mated and unmated wolves looking at me. Then I realize that the scent of her arousal has filled the mating hall. When I inhaled the second time, I know I am doomed. My mate is heat and I must get her the hell out of here before these horny animals can attack me and devour her.
Jake I take large strides, heading to the doors. I hear low growls behind me, but I ignore them and walk out the door. I do not stay in the packhouse because that is not my home anymore; it has not been my home for a long time. I take her to my uncle’s house and when I get in; he looks at me with questioning eyes. He inhales, then groans. “Heat?” he asks the obvious, and I nod. He points me to the guest room downstairs and follows me behind. I opened the door and placed her on the bed. She then wakes up and starts stripping off her clothes. I look at my uncle and he shrugs. “What do I do?” I asked my uncle. Her arousal is not helping things at all. My dick is hard as a rock, and my wolf wants nothing more than to devour his mate. But I cannot do that. I do not want to do this. “Fill a bath with cold water” my uncle says but when I am about to get out of the door, he stops me. “Take her to the shower instead and let her sit under running water.” He tells me and I curse under my bre
Jake I jerked up from bed when I heard a banging on the door; it takes me a minute to register what the banging was. “Come in.” I say yawning, I still want to sleep for a couple of more hours. “Why are you still sleeping at this time? The crowd is already gathering on the training grounds.” My uncles says, and it hits me. This is the day I get to put an end to John Williams.I get out of bed. “I am ready.” Now my expression has changed, sleep is long gone and the only thing that remained in my mind was killing the bastard. I head to the shower and take a quick one. When I get back to my room, my uncle is gone but there is a note on the bed, and I take it. ‘May the Goddess be with you today; may she bless you with strength to see this through. I have gone to the training ground, see you shortly. Your proud uncle.” The note read. A small smile plays on my lips as I read the last part of the note. Whether I win or lose, I know this man will still be proud of me. I frown thinking how I
Jake Trojan ran all the way to the woods behind our packhouse and all the way towards the mountain. I kept quiet and let him keep control. He blocked me off from his mind, so I didn’t know what was going on with him, but I decided to trust him. Today for the first time Trojan revealed a bit of information about himself. My wolf didn’t talk much, only when it was necessary.He ran and ran with his big paws thundering on the ground as he ran. Wind blew on his fur, he ran until he came to a stop at a clearing I didn’t even know existed. He drank water and sat down with his head laid on his front paws. I could feel the sadness pouring out of his whole being, I knew it was his because I felt nothing for the monster we just killed. “I held him in my arms when he was born, I remember how proud my son was when John was born.” Started Trojan.I did not interrupt him, I kept quiet and let him continue. “We thought he was going to be the greatest alpha the world has ever seen and indeed, he was
Elena I watched him leave, and I clenched my fist in anger. That arrogant bastard! To think I thought he was better than his father, they are just the same. How could he do this to me, how could he take away my only chance to avenge my parents? I am happy that dog Williams is dead, but I was angry I am not the one who did it. I wanted him to die by my hand. I wanted to look him in the eye as he took his last breath.He took that away from me, first, he takes advantage of me in my vulnerable moment then leaves in bed to go kill his father. He could have at least woken me up so that I can watch as he died. “I am sorry you feel this way, but our mate did not take advantage of us.” My wolf decides this was a good time to talk to me.“What do you mean by that? Do you think if I was in my right mind, I would have slept with him? Whose side are you on?” I asked my wolf one question after another. She was pissing me off. “I am on your side but let me ask you this, would you have preferred he
Elena After the talk I had with Martin, we had dinner in silence with both of us deep in thought, and when he went to bed; I offered to do the dishes. I just needed time alone to think. I did not know if I could trust Martin yet, if my alpha can betray me like that then who was Marin to be loyal to me? I am nothing to him and he owes me nothing.I might be his nephew’s mate, but he does not know me. So, what if he is setting me up? ‘He was sincere when he offered to help us.’ That he was but the important question is, can we trust him? I finished with the dishes and then still sat there thinking about all the members of my pack who lost their lives and my parents.My mate walks in, he looked exhausted. He sees me then frowns and my wolf whimpers. ‘He doesn’t want us.’ She says and I wish I can tell her she is wrong, but I cannot. “Your food is in the microwave; I can warm it for you if you would like.” I offered; I do not even know why I did that. He looked at me hesitating before no
Jake“Jake, wake up” I turned to the other side and continued to sleep. “Jake!” Trojan yells causing my head to hurt. “Go to sleep Trojan, we have a long day tomorrow.” I tell him then close my eyes trying to get more sleep. “There is something wrong with mate.” He says, and I feel irritated just by hearing that.Now a person cannot have peace because his mate is around, I did not even ask for this damned mate. “Is she dying?” that would be the only time I leave this bed to go check on her. “No, but I feel her destress, something is wrong?” Trojan tells me. “Then if she is not dying let me sleep, besides, what could be stressing her when she is supposed to be sleeping?” I asked letting my irritation show in my voice.“I can’t sense her in the house Jake.” He tells me, well, if she decided to go looking for trouble then that is not my problem. “Maybe she went for a walk, or a run and her distress has nothing to do with me.” I say then closed my eyes again trying to sleep more. “Your fa
Elena Martin did not have a problem with me joining training, I was so excited that it felt like he was taking longer finishing his breakfast. If it was not my first time going to train with these warriors, then I would have left Martin behind. He chuckled seeing me eyeing him again. “Training is not going anywhere Elena, relax and have coffee or something.” He tells me and I frown.I already had coffee; all I need now is to train. “I already had my breakfast.” I tell him and he just shrugs. His so annoying, can’t he just finish so we can go already? Finally, he finishes his last piece of toast and I stand up ready to go and he chuckles. “I didn’t say we can go,” he says with a raised eyebrow. “No need to sulk, we can go.” I jump out of my chair and head to the door.I hear him chuckling behind me, and I do not care. I just want to train; it has been so long. “I have never seen anyone who is eager to go get themselves beatings.” Martin says but I ignore him. If it were back, then I w
Jake I stood up the stairs and looked down as my uncle welcomed guests. The packhouse was nicely decorated and soft music played in the background. My pack members were nicely dressed in evening gowns and suits. They had genuine smiles on their faces, and nothing could please me more.But all that did not take away the anxiety I felt, I was about to meet all the alphas for the first time. I was not groomed like all the other alphas to take over, my father was not exactly a role model and he thought he was going to live longer, so he saw no reason to teach me how to be an alpha or introduce me to the others.How was he going to do that anyway when he did not get along with any of them? The only time John William was in the same space as another alpha was when he was attacking them. Now, how was I going to be introduced to them besides my father did not see me as his son but as something, he could play with whenever he felt like it.Elena’s alpha arrived, and I watched as he exchanged
Jake “Uncle, please tell we took a wrong turn somewhere.” That was the only logical explanation Jake could come up with seeing now there was a field where his newly acquired pack used to be. “We did not take a wrong turn, but something is not right here” seeing that the alpha and beta were clueless about what was happening. A warrior came forward. “I am sorry to interrupt alpha, but I think I might have an idea of what is happening here.” Both Jake and Martin looked at the warrior. “Speak your mind.” Jake just wanted to know what happened to his pack. “Well, you might not know this, but I was born from a witch mother and a werewolf father.” Jake was not one for stories and just the start of what the warrior was saying was already working on his nerves. “What of it, does you witch mother have anything to do with my pack disappearing?” the warrior swallowed hard. He was only trying to help but now it seemed he made a mistake. “No alpha, my mother died when I was only but seven year
JakeSomewhere outside of Elena’s old pack, an old witch was busy working. Her eyes were ice cold and distant. One could not look into them for long as they sent chills down a person’s spine. Not in a good way. They looked dead.Next to her stood a young boy and a redhaired woman. the woman looked scared and even regretting asking her aunt for help. She thought she would just help get her son his rightful place. For him to be recognised as the next alpha of the Golden Moon Pack when he came of age.But now it looked like it would take more bloodshed before that could happen. “Aunt, what are we doing here?” the woman did not even glance at her niece. She was concentrating on the spell she was busy chanting.“Aunt, am talking to you.” She said shaking the woman, but the moment she touched her she was flung and thrown a few feet away. The boy’s eyes widened in fear as he screamed.“Mama!!” he ran to his mother’s side. The woman was groaning on the ground feeling pain in all parts of her
Jake I walked into my office yawning still feeling sleepy since I did not sleep well last night and I get a shock of my life when I see my mate sleeping on my desk. Everything looks clean and tidy.What the hell was she doing here, did she sleep here and what the hell did she do with my papers? I feel my anger raising and Trojan scoffs in my head. ‘You are quick to get angry, yet you don’t even know what you are angry about. Wake her up and ask before you explode for no reason.’ Well, that makes sense but I thought she said she was not going to do Luna duties until I officially make her one. What was she doing here last night then? ‘wake her up and stop giving me a headache early in the morning.’ I walk towards my desk and shook her. But she did not move. I shook her again but still nothing. “Elena! Wake up.” She jumps and start looking around. Okay, that might have been too much but at least she is awake. She looked at me then out the window then yawns stretching her limbs. “Morn
Jake She is weak and yet she doesn’t want to train and improve her skills. We don’t have weak warriors at the Blood Moon and if she thinks she is going to be a weak Luna that needs to be taken care of by the other people then she has something else coming.She looks at me when I mind link her to go into the packhouse and find something to do. I ignore her looks but then came her answer. “I am not your Luna yet so you can’t tell me what to do, alpha” the chick of this woman. Who the hell does she think she is? “Our mate and Luna. That is who she is.” Trojan answers, I knew he was going to say something like this. ‘I know who she is Trojan, I just don’t want a weak mate’ I tell him, and he scoffs. ‘So, then you do want a mate just not a weak one, huh?’ he questions, and I regret not counting my words when I answered. “If you don’t want to do your Luna duties then train hard like everyone else.” I tell her and I could feel her eyes piercing through me, but I still don’t look. “Get up
ELENASome might think that what I did was cheap but what is being cheap with her fated mate? I never wanted to have an alpha for a mate just like he didn’t want to have a mate. But after he took away my purpose and killed his father then my alpha.I could relax, I could finally have a life. He kept on saying that he doesn’t want a mate but everything he did to protect me, tells a different story and it doesn’t help that we live in the same pack and house. The mate bond is growing by the second.I can’t keep denying myself the chance at happiness, I have been through a lot and a little happiness of my own wouldn’t hurt. I never thought I would be Luna though.I always thought that my fated mate would be a warrior just like I am. That we would spend our days training and protecting our pack. But the Moon Goddess had her own plans for me. so, who am I to complain.I am falling in love with Jake and what is there not to love? The man is considerate and caring. He might now show it but ev
JAKEMy uncle and my mate come to my side and the words of my wolf ring in my head when I see her. ‘The bond you share with our mate and I will give you power, power only the gods possess.’ I still wonder what he meant by that. Wolves are not normally born with powers except the white wolves, the descendants from the Moon Goddess. I believe mine is just an ordinary wolf with alpha power. He is old, yes but that does not mean he had special powers. Also, we do not get powers from mating with our chosen ones. It just makes us feel complete, that is all. Maybe the old fossil was pulling my leg and there is no need to think about it too much. “Are you alright?” askes my uncle making my mate close her mouth. Maybe she wanted to ask the same thi
JAKEThe silence is defining, I don’t know what happened but after that growl the attacks stopped and have heard nothing from the old fossil again. Did he leave? I wonder hope returning to me.“I felt that your growl is strong, and I can tell that you are an old wolf. Pity your kind was responsible for killing my kind a hundred years ago.” He laughs viciously.“It looks like I am getting revenge for a lot of people today. You kid are to pay for your ancestor’s sins as well as your fathers. What a glorious day this is.” Fuck me! Why do I have to be the one to pay for the sins of others. why can’t I pay for mine only?“But since I am also a generous man, I will give you a chance to make amends.” His words shocked me, this man was ready to kill me and now he wants me to make amends.“What do you want?” asked not sure I wanted to know what his going to ask. Vampires cannot be trusted, our years of hate for them is not for nothing. “You can get me another human bear a child for me. she mu
JAKEI am so fucked it’s not even funny, my warriors are doing a good job putting the vampires down but they don’t stand a chance against this one in front of me. he is a pure-blooded, old vampire and I am sure reading minds is not the only ability he has. “Do you have any last words before I put you down? At least I am giving you that yet your father gave my daughter nothing.” He says put me down like I am a dog. What disrespect!“You know that child was a mistake. I didn’t even want a child but the human got pregnant anyway. I knew long ago that I will not have children since a pure blood can only have a child with another pure blood. But the human proved me wrong and gave me a child I never thought I could have.” He paused looking sad.I feel his pain, I would feel the same if my child was killed. “I was happy, she was a half blood but more powerful than these morons you see here and she got that from me. but your greedy father had to go and kill her.” I see rage in his eyes, and
My warriors mind linked me and told me that they were ready for me. I stood up from the couch feeling tired and wanting this day to be over and done with. I need to go home and rest, but I can’t leave things like this here.Getting to the training grounds, I find all the pack members there, fear was thick in the air, they feared me, and I am not sure how I feel about that. All I wanted was to free myself and my pack from the claws of my father.I never wanted to acquire more packs and I certainly never wanted to be feared but to be respected. But I guess that is what I get for killing the king. “I will not take much of your time, this day has been long for all of us.” I start then scan their faces.She-wolves are holding their pups close, and fear is written all over their faces. As I continue to scan the crowd, I am met with fierce eyes of a red head. She is holding the hand of a young boy not older than eight, if I am not mistaken.The look in her eyes makes mine linger on her for a
