BL: 002

With his hands held behind him, Alpha Jett strolled through his pack, passing houses after houses. He could only smile and feel his heart swell in dignity as he saw how optimistic his people were. His eyes meandered the children, trotting around, playing tags, they were joyous, everyone was cheerful, what could go wrong?

He might be youthful but he sanctioned his pack well and every one of his packs members gave him the reverence as the Alpha. It wasn't easy after his father died from a rogue raid but he had managed to pull it. He was eighteen then and now, he was twenty-five, six years since then but it still felt like it was just yesterday when everything fell on his shoulders. Suddenly, his gaze landed on a couple heading towards his direction, hands interlocked together, chuckles and giggles leaving their lips. Instantly, his smile dropped.

Most wolves found their mates as soon as they shift which was at the age of sixteen, it had been nine years since he shifted and his mate was nowhere to be found, his pack remained without a luna. He sighed, his shoulders dropping. Perhaps he didn't need a mate to rule his pack, maybe he was meant to be alone and when the lovely couple walked past him, bowing at him as their Alpha, he could only smile, knowing he was happy for them.

With a wheel, Jett headed back to the packhouse.

**********************

Thud!

Crash!

Yowls!

Howls!

Finally having enough of those sounds, Jett jerked up straight on his bed. He rubbed his head but his ears kept catching faints sounds of screams and many trying to break through the pack link.

Suddenly, the sound of his door being banged had him jumping out from the bed and rushing towards it, swinging the door open, to find his Beta, Riyan.

"What's going on?"

"It's a raid!"

Almost instantly, his eyes enlarged and he didn't ask for any further answers as he dashed out from his bedroom and ran down the halls ways of the majestic packhouse, wearing nothing but a pair of black pants, leaving his upper body and feet bare while Riyan was hot on his tracks, running behind him. There was barely any soul awake as it was still midnight and everyone was still fast asleep, oblivious of the happenings at the pack borders.

Both of them scrambled out from the packhouse and shifted into their huge wolf forms and sprinted towards the pack borders where the chaos was coming from. Fuck! Jett cursed as he ran faster, soon they were already in the thick forest.

And when he finally opened the pack link in his head, he nearly growled out in pain as waves of voice broke through it, hitting him with cries of fallen men and wounded. Just once, he decided to sleep blocking the pack, shit decided to happen, his biggest mistake, and now, his pack was under attack and it was his fault.

Finally reaching their destination, Jett nearly froze at the chaos, at the sight of his pack members being crushed by much larger wolves, most of them were already dead. Jett growled in anger when he heard the whimper of pain from his Gamma being held down by a large wolf, fangs buried deep into his neck. With a growl, Jett had the wolf tackled to the ground and without a moment though, dug his claws and fangs into his body, tearing his flesh into pieces, killing two more in an instant when they attacked.

"Alpha!" His Gamma whimpered, suddenly growing paralyzed by the pain, Jett turned to him, instantly noticing how his wounds weren't healing while losing too much blood. Jett leaned his mouth down and licked over the wound on his ground but a wolf jumped on him from behind, tackling him to the ground, and soon, they rolled over, Jett taking the upper hand and killing him.

"Take the injured and return to the pack, retreat!" Alpha Jett yelled through the pack link taking another wolf down but instead of dying out, more wolves emerged from the woods, with glaring red eyes, shining with animosity.

Jett watched as more and more wolves emerged out from the dark while helping those who are wounded. "Run!" He ordered the wolf that had his Gamma on his back, barely unconscious in his human form.

"No, I want to fight!" The Gamma protested but Jett glared at him.

"No, run and that's an Order from your Alpha!" he ordered and the wolf didn't argue as he sprinted towards the pack with the wounded Gamma.

When the injured were all gone, Jett and the others were surrounded by the tremendous wolves. He stared at them, noticing their difference, their massive form, their dark eyes, their sharp and long fangs, their claws, their heights, it was like they were a completely different breed, something he had never seen before and now, they were surrounded.

Jett growled at them, standing his ground, displaying his dominance, he was the Alpha, he refused to be intimidated by a bunch of wolves.

"Riyan, return to the pack!" he ordered through the pack and instantly, Riyan's black fur wolf turned to him.

"Alpha..." he tried to protest.

"The rest of us would be here, return to the pack, now, some might have gotten inside!"

Riyan nodded, but when he tried to make a run for it, his path was suddenly obstructed.

"Fucking wolves!" Jett cursed, eyeing the cursed breed with anger and malice, especially knowing their Alpha was nowhere to be found. "KILL THEM ALL!" he jumped, being the first to tackle down the wolf that blocked Riyan's path. "Go!" He ordered, biting the wolf while Riyan made a run for it, without looking back.

"You stupid piece of shit, where's your Alpha!" He ordered, clawing the wolf and biting it, and almost instantly, it went limp and he was unto the other one. The battle continued, his men killed more wolves while more emerged from the woods while the sky remained dark over their heads.

"Alpha, they are inside!"

Jett's heart nearly dripped to his chest at the words that reached him. How did they get inside!? Fucking fuck!!

"Retreat, to the pack, retreat!!" he ordered to his remaining men and everyone sprinted back to the pack, their home.

Jett ran with all his mighty, his heart speeding in his chest knowing his people were in danger, the people that entrusted him with their lives. Fuck! he cursed once again and from afar, he saw smoke raging from his home, cries, and screams, they were all calling for their Alpha to save them.

But almost there, a huge blow hit him and he ended up crashing on a tree that fell over at the force but before he could react, a heavy weight had pounded on him and hovering over him was a massive wolf, black and mighty, red eyes darker than anything he had never seen before, aura suffocating, powerful, nothing he had ever felt before, it felt so unreal but among that dominant scent, something else surrounded the wolf, something bitter yet sweet at the same time and when the realization finally hit him, everything went blank, with only but the thought of failing his pack crossing his mind.

To be continued...!
