Moonlight Lovers; Bonded By Fate

Alpha Jackson White boiled with rage when he found out his 18-year-old daughter, Camila White, was pregnant.

"Who got you pregnant?" Alpha Jackson roared at Camila as they stood inside his living room downstairs in his duplex mansion.

"Alpha, please take it easy on Camila. She is only a young girl," Camila's mother, Theresa White, pleaded with her husband. She served as the Luna of their pack, the Eastern Pack.

"Do not tell me to calm down. First, I opposed Camila going to the club to celebrate her birthday, but you said she was already an adult. Now look at what being an adult has turned her into. At this point in her life, when she is supposed to advance to university, she chose to bring shame and disgrace to our family and pack," Alpha Jackson said. He felt bitter upon discovering that Camila was already three months pregnant, and she did not know who had gotten her pregnant.

Camila knelt in her father's living room and cried, "Please, Father, forgive me."

"Shut up. I will ask you for the last time. Who did you shamefully sleep with?" Alpha Jackson questioned. Camila was his only daughter and only child.

It hurt Alpha Jackson deeply because he wanted Camila to marry Beta Lonald's son in the future to help him rule the pack, and now Camila had ruined everything with her foolishness and naivety.

"I do not know, Father," Camila cried as she knelt and begged her father.

The last thing Camila remembered was that she was at the clubhouse with her friends, celebrating her birthday. There, she met her mate, Andre Mason, and she fell in love with him. However, she could not remember what happened next after she drank from the wine bottle her best friend Anita George gave her.

"Answer me before I throw you out this minute! Who got you pregnant?" Alpha Jackson asked. Then he pulled off his trouser belt.

"I have been lenient with you long enough, and it seems to you that I cannot discipline you." Alpha Jackson rushed to Camila and started flogging her with his black belt.

"Alpha! Take it easy on Camila! You will kill her! Camila is our only daughter. Somebody help!" Luna Theresa screamed as she rushed to separate her husband from flogging Camila.

With the way Alpha Jackson's mansion was built, none of the people living nearby could enter Alpha Jackson's gate, even though it was late at night. They could only hear the sound of the whip and Camila's serious crying and wailing.

Alpha Jackson flogged Camila to the extent that her beautiful yellow skin peeled and her white nightgown tore.

"Guards!" Alpha Jackson called out to his stationed guards around him after he finished flogging Camila, who was breathing heavily and crying.

"Throw Camila out of this pack. I do not want to see her anywhere around our pack again, and Camila ceases to be my daughter from today onward," Alpha Jackson spoke to the two guards who came in.

"Okay, Alpha," the two guards replied. They immediately bundled Camila away.

"No, Alpha, you cannot do this to Camila. Bring back my daughter!" Luna Theresa cried as she called to the two guards, but none dared to go against Alpha Jackson's orders.

Luna Theresa ran after the two guards who had bundled Camila out. They carried Camila by her arms and took her out.

"No! Bring back my daughter! My precious jewel!" Luna Theresa screamed after the two guards. That attracted pack members to come out from their houses and wonder what was happening as the Luna of their pack cried.

"Camila! No!" Luna Theresa wore a lime-colored nightgown. She ran after the two guards, caught up with them, and tried to pull Camila away from their hold.

Camila was already too tired to protest, and her wolf, Ivy, was too weak to shapeshift and fight the two guards to go back and plead with her father.

Camila knew that her father was ruthless, but she had never gotten on her father's wrong side. She had always done what her father wanted her to be: a good girl who possessed a good leadership spirit so that other young werewolves in their pack would learn from her and look up to her as the next Alpha of their pack, irrespective of the fact that she was female.

But she had failed her father, and for the first time in her 18 years of living, her father raised his belt to her and disciplined her.

Camila felt sore as she watched her mother try to pull her away from the two guards who dragged her out of their pack.

"Luna, we cannot go against Alpha Jackson's orders. Camila has been banished. Please try to understand," the two guards begged. They knew how ruthless Alpha Jackson was and that he did not spare any offenders.

"No. You cannot take my daughter away. I have not banished Camila yet, and she is still a member of our Eastern Pack. Let go of Camila at once," Luna Theresa commanded. However, the two guards knew whose orders to follow best.

"We cannot, Luna. We are sorry." They refused to let go of Camila and dragged her away from her mother. They ran away with Camila while Luna Theresa chased after them.

Luna Theresa became exhausted from chasing the two guards as they ran fast with Camila. They had already left to exit the Eastern Pack.

"No! My Camila!" Luna Theresa fell to her knees and cried as her vision blurred with heavy tears.

The two guards finally arrived at their pack's exit gate. They threw Camila out and locked the heavy gate on her.

"Go away and never return to this pack. Otherwise, you know best what your father will do to you," one of the two guards warned Camila. They knew she was aware of her father's ruthlessness.

They also knew that Camila could have heard them, even though she was weak. She was still breathing and awake.

They turned and left Camila, then walked back into the Eastern Pack gate. The two guards at the entrance gate into the Eastern Pack territory shut the gate closed on Camila.

Camila was too weak to stand up. She knelt in front of her pack's entrance gate.

Her body hurt and stung from the pain she had received.

She did not know how she became pregnant. She also remembered meeting her mate for the first time and getting drunk after.

Tears streamed down her eyes, and soon heavy rain began to fall with heavy wind blowing.

Rain drops drenched her already light white nightgown, and Camila knew that she had no other option than to stand up and search for shelter. But from where?

Camila also knew that no other pack would accept her. She had the Eastern tattoo on her right arm and, more likely, the sun symbol tattoo on her forehead to indicate that she was from the Eastern Pack.

The rising sun symbol marked on her forehead served as a logo to show other packs that she was a foreigner from the Eastern Pack. Many other packs hated her father because they knew he did not tolerate cheating or any sin.

Alpha Jackson was known for the discipline, genuineness, and uprightness of their pack. And now she had failed to show that true leadership spirit.

Camila dragged herself to move as the heavy rain drenched her body. She made her way toward the path that led to the Western Pack.

Camila knew the Western Pack was full of liars, deceitful people, fraudsters, and, more likely, cheaters, as her father had told her.

The Western Pack opened its doors to foreigners and welcomed them freely to live in their pack.

Camila made her way to the Western Pack's border and entrance gate, which lay far from her father's pack. She felt hopeful that by the time she arrived, they would accept her despite knowing she was the Alpha's daughter.
