After placing a huge order at the bakery to be shipped to our pack and placing an order to be picked up on our way out of town in two days, Damien and I get in the Hummer with Ely and Eivin and we are on our way to the pack. Alpha and Beta will be later than us, because they have all the kids with them. I need to get back so that I can eat lunch, then start getting ready for the gathering after I help get the kids settled in. It's another busy day today.
When we get to the packhouse, I went straight to the dining room. While Damien and I were eating, Alpha Arnou and Beta Rule came in with the kids. They were all laughing, so I took this as a good sign. Alpha offered to let them sit at his table, and they took him up on it. They all got a plate of food and a drink and sat down with us. When Alpha stood, the pack went quiet. He said, "You all are aware of the kids that are coming out to film us. This is them. When I call your name, please stand. Sergio is the oldest. He is six
Please don't forget to rate what you've read so far. I love reading your comments.
After my shower, I was sitting at the make-up table, in my robe, while the hair and make-up ladies were working their magic on me. Damien walked in the room in a black tux and I started salivating. "Damn," I smiled, "How did I get so lucky?" He smiled and said, "I ask myself theat every day." I asked him, "Would you mind checking on the guys? I also want to tell them not to film the guests without their permission." He said, "I already told them that and they looked at me like I was stupid. They told me that it would be rude to do that." I laughed and said, "They must really want this if they are on their best behavior." He said, "Or they're afraid of us still." I said, "I hope not." When my hair and make-up were done, I went to the closet and chose a dark purple gown. I put on my shoes and walked out of the closet. Damien stood up and said, "I like that color on you. It makes your eyes look brighter." I smiled and said, "Thank you. It matches Anna's gown. I thought she woul
Damien and I were still standing there, when another huge man walked up to us. "Hello. You must be Alpha Damien and Luna Abby, from Red Fang Pack." Damien nodded and said, "We are. And you are?" He said, "I am Alpha Erick Fontenot from Shadow Pack. I have already heard a lot about you and the good you are doing for The Swamp Nightwalkers". Damien said, "You can thank my mate for that. She's the one with the heart to pull this all together. I could've never come up with these ideas." I poked him in the ribs, laughed, and said, "You could've, but sometimes, you need a she-wolf to bring out your caring side." Alpha Erick said, "I would love an alliance with your pack. I would also love to invite you to come visit my pack and see if anything can be done to improve relations with humans in my area." I said, "I'm sure we could stop in at your pack for a day or two, after we visit these other three packs." That was when Anna showed up again. I said, "We could make sure you get the
All three Alphas were smiling at me as though they were saying, "How cute," in their heads and it was really starting to piss me off. I looked at Damien and said, "Should I demonstrate?" He said, "But your gown?" I said, "I can fight in a ball gown without messing it up. I won't even make them bleed." Damien laughed and they all had a look of confusion as he nodded his head and I said, "Please, Alphas, let me demonstrate. I will take all of you on at the same time. Please, don't be gentle, either. I promise, I can take it." Damien said, "Trust me... She can take it." I kicked off my shoes and said, "I will take off my shoes, so I can't hurt you with them. I will not hurt you; just disable you... temporarily." They all stood there at first, then Alpha Ryne was the first to lunge for me. I dodged the attack and elevated all of us. While they were all disoriented from being off the ground, I swept all their legs out from under them. They all landed on their backs and star
I went inside to get my plate and I asked Ely and Eivin to come outside and eat with me. We sat at the picnic table as we watched the kids get on the backs of my mate and the other Alphas. After some other pack members showed them how to hold on and how to signal that they need to stop, they all went behind trees to shift. When they were all gathered, they all took off into the woods to my right. A few minutes later, we were eating our breakfast and I just happened to look to my left. I caught sight of an alligator walking up to us. I told the guys to sit on the table and I elevated the alligator to eye level for me. I started walking toward it when Ely said, "Luna, please don't get too close to it. Alpha would kill us if you got hurt." I said, "I'm not going to get too close, but something is going on. I haven't seen a single alligator before now." I walked until I was three feet from it and said, "Let's talk. I ask, you answer. Got it?" It nodded. I said, "Wh
As soon as we were all in the conference room, Alpha Arnou took his seat with the rest of us and turned on the television. Eivin put the video on, and all of the Alphas and Beta Rule watched the entire event, including me talking to the alligator. When I levitated the alligator, all three of the local Alphas looked like they wanted to admonish me for approaching it, until I started asking it questions and it started answering. Then their moths dropped. It stayed that way until my conversation with Zaros. That's when they all got serious. They were listening intently to my words, when I felt the sparks of Damien's arm around me. When the video ended, Damien said, "That's my mate, always thinking out-of-the-box." Alpha Arnou said, "Vampires, huh? You realize we are natural enemies." I said, "I do. But if we can have an agreement, in writing, why not? I am all about bringing species together, as long all parties behave. He now knows we will not tolerate the bullshit. If they st
Anna said, "I kinda hope we do. That would show all of the town that we can all live together in peace." Yara said, "I will tell Abby that she needs to talk to your parents. There are things the two of you need to know soon." Anna said, "It's just us and my mom. My dad was killed by a drunk driver." Yara said, "Okay. We can speak with your mom when we take you home, this evening." Damien said, "Yara, will you please let Abby come forward? We really need to talk to her now." Yara said, "Yes, Alpha. Your wish is my command." She winked at Damien, and I came forward. Damien was still chuckling when I came forward. I cringed as I said, "What did she say?" Damien laughed and said, "She was well behaved. I am pretty proud of her." I said to Anna, "Is there anything else you need to ask me?" She said, "I just want to know what to expect, if we do have wolves." I said, "Let's find out if that is even a possibility before we get into that. Okay?" She said, "Okay. I can do that.
We said goodbye to Alpha Erick and Alpha Ryne, then Alpha Arnou, the kids, Damien and I got in a van and left for the human town. While we were on our way, I noticed Anna was agitated. I reached for her hand and held it, "Sweetie," I said, "Everything is going to be okay. I'm sure it's all going to be just fine. Your mom knew that your dad was a werewolf. She had to know that you guys could be wolves too." She said, "But why hasn't she told us yet?" I said, "Honey, she's human. Plus, look at where you live, with all the Rougarou talk. I'm sure it was to protect you. There is a lot that she knows nothing about, as far as things that happen with young wolves. You guys are going to need a pack, or you will go insane." We arrived at city hall and the council was there, but only Steven's parents were there. Alpha Arnou thanked them for allowing him to come out to the pack. They said, "We are looking forward to seeing the video. These kids have talent." Alpha Arnou said, "They do,
After talking with the city council, it was settled that construction would begin on the water park as soon as the construction company was available. We gave them the link to the video. We watched it with them, and they were very impressed. One council member said, "I think I want to put this on the city's social media accounts as well as show it at all city meetings. This shows that you are not the monsters they think you are. It also talks about where the Rougarou originated from. They will be relieved to know that the Rougarou was taken out by werewolves to protect humans." We agreed that it would be a great idea. Alpha Arnou told them that Sergio's parents signed over custody of Sergio to him. The relinquished their parental rights. He showed them the paperwork and they made a copy for their records. The female council member said, "I'm so glad you are taking him. They are horrible parents. We couldn't do anything about it, because he never told anyone." Alpha Arnou said, "He h
