An Alpha is crowned

Jonathan's POV

my name is Jonathan and I am the son of an Alpha. I have always known that I would have to take my place someday and be the leader of my pack. my whole life has been nothing but a preparation for me to lead the Pack.

I had no idea what it would take for me to actually take my place and be an Alpha until the day my father told me that I would have to fight one of the strongest werewolves in the land in order for me to claim my place.

I have always thought myself as an honorable man so when I killed the Crescent Alpha I did it with respect and I make sure that the man died with his dignity intact, in a way I can say that I was tricked.

I thought that killing the Crescent Alpha would mean that my father would step down and let me take over as an Alpha. Instead he ordered me to take the place of the Alpha and be the leader of his pack.

That's not the only thing he said, he said that I must show no mercy to anyone in Cresent the pack. He said that the Crescents are a proud Wolf pack and that they will never submit to me unless I demanded it from them.

I refused to go and sit at the throne of a man a killed. I didn't think that it would be okay for me to rule a pack I didn't have any connections with. My father said that he didn't have a coward for a son and that I couldn't deny my Alpha want he wanted.

My father is heartless man and being his son didn't spare me from getting his wrath. Defiance to my Alpha could be fatal. He didn't really give me a choice in the matter. He sent me to rule a new pack of wolves whose bloodline was as old as time.

My father has faught the Cresent Alpha and lost every battle. I succeeded where he couldn't have and that should have been enough for him. Instead he sent me to the one place I never thought I'd find myself at.

He sent me with a team of Minions who despite my disapproval had slaughtered some wolves. I didn't expect a warm welcome but when one of the Alpha's daughter's came at me, I thought that she was brave.

But I also thought that she was being stupid especially since I could have easily been twice her size. She's such a fire cracker and if she didn't want to murder me in my sleep I might even like her.

I had to lock her away. I have been here for a few weeks and I can already tell that she's going to be a problem. I have since realised that even if they feared me, they had a lot of respect for her. 

A lot of people have been talking about how well trained she is and that she had great leadership skills. I don't know why they can't accept me but they would respect her this much.

I have also realised that I won't make it if I don't have the dead Alpha's bloodline by my side. I have met her sisters and I have decided to show them mercy. I have decided to keep them in the house.

They just had to do things differently from what they were used to. They were treated like princess before and now they're like everyone else in this house. They have their jobs and they have been good at them.

I just had to see where their loyalty was. So I set up a little bit of a trap. I thought that her sisters could persuade her to change her mind and submit to me as her Alpha. 

I started a false rumour. When I was with Nathan, who is my right hand man and my best friend, I said that I was going to lock her up in the silver room when she turns. That means that she would remain in her Wolfe state until the next full moon.

I wouldn't do that to anyone, not even my greatest enemy. We can only turn at will once a month and the rest of the time it comes when you need it but with her I saw something different. I saw her eyes glowing.

Ours glowed yellow but hers were electric blue which only made me wonder why she was so different from any other wolf I've met before. I am yet to find out.

The two sisters show no threat to me. They're basically harmless but I now know where their loyalty lies, they couldn't wait to go and tell her  what I said about the silver room.

I just had to get their sister to follow in line. A few more days went by and before I knew it, it had been a couple of weeks since I locked her in the dungeon.

I decided to have a little chat with her to see if she had changed her mind about me, it turned out she hadn't. She told me that she would never see me as an Alpha. I didn't want to come here and step on anyone's toes but I have no choice now.

I will have to be the man I never wanted to be. I am now an Alpha and I can't allow myself to be weak and mercy is a sign of weakness. I might not take her to the silver room but there's far worse punishments than that.

What I have planned for her is ruthless but I am a wolf and it's in my nature. I might not be as heartless as my father but I'm still his son and his rage runs through my blood as it does in his.

My mother is a strong woman and I believe that if she was still alive, she would do everything in her power to make my father see sense. This is not how I wanted to lead a pack of my own.

I had managed to do what wolves in my pack has failed to do for decades. I must admit that the old man gave me a good fight, so good that I couldn't have won this fight if he was younger.

I think that my father has been planning this for a long time which would explain why he trained me harder than everyone else. He said that he wanted to make me the strongest wolf and he did just that.

I suppose every father wants the best for their  children no matter what they have to do to get it. In his own way my father also wants the best for me. I just don't think that this place was the best place for me to be in .

I killed their leader, I took over his house, his daughter's are at my mercy but still I don't feel happy. I don't even like I belong in this place. I don't need the pressure as well. Which is why I have to make her submit to me.

I have a role I have to play, I know that my father is probably happy wherever he is but I am just trying to keep things together. I have a business to run and I'm stuck in this place that I don't want to be.

"Bring our prisoner to me..." I said to my best friend. He was afterall my right hand man.

"Right on it brother..." He said.

"Send one of her sisters to fetch her." I said.

"I'll do that..." He said and left the house.

Things are happening pretty fast but I don't care. I have to do this. I have to show her that I'm the Alpha and demand her submission. She is headstrong and I actually might even admire her a bit.

"Your father is going to be proud of you for doing this, you're showing your strength." Leon said.

"Yes he will, but I miss Nia..." I said thinking about the girl I left back home. I have been with Nia for three years. She has imprinted on me and even though I haven't imprinted, I know that I love her.

My father said that if I really loved her, I would have mated with her or atleast imprinted. The thing is that being imprinted comes naturally for wolves.

My mother said that everyone is born to have only person whom they will imprint with. She said that it's a connection like no other, the need to protect them, the need to love them and vice versa.

I had been waiting for years to imprint on Nia because Iove her but it hadn't happened yet. I just told myself that it didn't matter because I will never love another like I do her.

"You should have brought her here..." Leon said.

"My father wouldn't have allowed that, he thinks that there's someone else for me..." I said to Leon.

My father said that I couldn't bring her with me because we haven't mated, when I suggested that I mate with Nia he forbade it and said that my mate with will be with the woman I imprint on.

We both know that it's not going to happen. I haven't met a girl I haven't liked and still I haven't imprinted on anyone. It was different with Nia because I love her despite me not being able to imprint on her.

I went to one of our spirit elders and she did a reading on me. What she told me broke my heart into a thousand pieces. She said that I will never imprint on her no matter how much time passes because we are not meant to be together.

I asked her how was that possible if she had imprinted on me. She said that her instincts and her love for me made her imprint on me and that it wasn't going to last because she was going to meet the love of her life.

I had sleepless nights thinking about what my spirit elder told me about my relationship with Nia. I asked her if I would ever imprint on anyone and she told me that it was going to happen.

She said that it was going to be with someone who hated me. She said that when it happens I am going to break Nia's heart. At that point I didn't know what to do.

"Your father is right, I haven't imprinted on anyone either, don't be hard on yourself, It will happen." Leon said.

"Yeah, I suppose." I said.
