THE RED MOON

Olivia

I actually have just one sibling, Amelia.

Amelia is an arrogant jerk, always feeling proud and boastful just because she is the next in line as the name is Olivia Gael. I am the second child of Alpha kai Gael, the Alpha of crescent moon pack. e new Alpha of our pack.

I am just like the invisible child while Amelia is the most noticed and loved child of our parents and pack.

I will be turning eighteen tomorrow and my wolf, Mia, is so excited because we will know who our mate is tomorrow. Amelia is twenty two and she already has a mate, Gahbran, the beta of our clan.

"Olivia.." I heard my mum call me and immediately rushed to answer her.

"Yes mum, I am on my way.." I screamed.

Once in the main room, I saw my mum sitting elegantly with her legs crossed.

"Umm..hey mum, you called me.." I said.

"Oh, yes darling, I need you to check up on the prisoner.." she said.

" But mum, the guards can do that, and besides he is scary, I don't want to go there.." I complained.

" Nonsense, I want you to personally go check up on him, now go immediately, shoo!" My mum reluctantly said as she sipped on her wine. "Oh..I hope these useless omegas are preparing for the feast that will take place today.." she said more to herself than to me.

" Uhh..mum, it is not just fair, really.." I said as I headed out of the room.

My mum could be unfair and strange at times, why would she want me to go check up on the prisoner?

The prisoner was actually a powerful Lycan king of the paxon pack that was captured by our pack years ago, I think his name is Kayden or so?.

He was sold out by his beta to our pack. My dad, the Alpha of our pack, was a cruel and cunning man. He always wanted power and fame to himself and he saw the Lycan king as a threat because his pack was more powerful than ours, so he used the greedy beta of the Lycan king's pack to capture the Lycan king. Aside from that, my dad also did so many horrible things to the Lycan king's pack, he killed the Lycan king's beta that helped him, raped his mate to death, and killed so many people in the Lycan king's pack.

On arrival at the dungeon where he was kept, I shakily entered into his own cell.

"Oh God.." I muttered in fear as I gulped nervously. "Please be careful.." my wolf, Mia said.

She too was scared.

He was there! Covered in blood with his head down. He was bound in heavy strong chains that was single handedly made by the most famous chain maker in all the werewolf packs.

I stared at him in fear and after some seconds, I decided it was time to go. As I turned around, he suddenly brought up his head and watched me with his bloodshot eyes.

"Ahhh!!!" I screamed in fear and panic as I immediately rushed out of the dungeon without even looking back.

"God! That was close!!" I said in fear as I made it out of the dungeon, my heart beating like crazy. I was literally sweating in all parts of my body.

I started heading back to the pack house. There were two hundred werewolves that lived in the pack house.

On my way, I sighted Amelia. She was dressed in a red long gown which hugged all her curves and her auburn hair which she packed in a high ponytail. She looked beautiful and sexy as always. I have always been low-key jealous of her every since we were still little pups, she was beautiful, strong, courageous, sexy, fully endowed, infact, she was everything I could not be. I was a weakling, thin with a pale skin. I looked malnourished.

"Hey sis, why are you looking like you were chased by a lion or.. did you see a ghost.." she said mockingly as I just rolled my eyes and walked past her.

I could hear her laugh behind me.

As I walked slowly back to the pack house, I kept thinking back to the prisoner. His bloody eyes staring right at me gave me the chills. I wrapped my arms around myself, the wind suddenly feeling colder.

My sister Amelia stood outside, is she waiting to taunt me again?

Her red gown is tight around her curves. As always, she looked beautiful. I felt that familiar pang of jealousy. Why did she get the good looks while I was as thin as a stick?

"You look like you've seen a ghost," Amelia said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes and kept walking. Her laugh trailed behind me.

....

It was almost nine, everyone in the crescent moon pack gathered in the Alpha's throne room for the feast.

There was a really large table set in the Middle for a great many.

I sat there and watch the feast, laughter and merriments could be heard but suddenly, the moon suddenly turned red.

It was the red moon!

Kayden

I was in the dungeon, all chained up like a criminal with my head down sleeping when a scent that made me go crazy filled my nostrils. I looked up to see a young girl staring at me, she was looking scared and thin. Suddenly, she screamed and ran out of the dungeon.

I hated everyone in this pack after what they did to me. I was sold out by my beta to them and I was going to take my revenge on them. My wolf, Waylen, was put to sleep by a powerful sorceress, so for now, I am just like a wolfless Lycan.

Fifteen years ago, I was captured by the crescent moon pack and imprisoned. Ever since that day, I have planned my revenge and escape strategically, awaiting the red moon which only came out once in twenty years. And according to my calculations, the red moon was going to come out tonight.

I heard the dungeon gates open and looked up to see it was that bitch, Amelia.

The cell door clanged open and Amelia strode in confidently. I glared at her. If only these chains weren't holding me back.

Amelia was actually the one who seduced my damned beta into selling me out, I so hated her.

"Hey handsome.." she called slyly as I glared dangerously at her.

"How are you doing today.." she said as she smirked, touching my biceps.

"I am doing well, you know Amelia, you are one smart woman, if you weren't a bitch, I would have kissed you right now for being so smart.." I said as I smirked.

" Yeah.. unfortunately you can't do that when you are all chained up like a hopeless fool.."

she said, causing my blood to boil.

" Alright then, I just came to check up on you, enjoy your day.." she said as she was walking out of the dungeon.

"I would kiss you for being so smart if you weren't such a bitch," I said through gritted teeth.

She just laughed. "Have fun rotting down here."

I felt so angry and if I wasn't in this situation right now, I would have torn her into shreds.

Anger boiled inside me. Someday I would get revenge for what her pack did. For now I had to bide my time.

......

5 hours later

Music and laughter floated down from the feast upstairs. I stared up at the small cellar window, waiting.

Suddenly the moon's light turned blood red. My wolf Waylen stirred, his energy rushing into me. The chains strained against my writhing muscles.

I started feeling restless and my nerves were all tensed up.

Suddenly, my claws came out and my eye blazed red. I heard my wolf growl inside.

He was awake!

"Welcome back," I said. My claws lengthened, eyes burning red. After all this time, finally freedom was near.

My wolf is back!

But could I defeat an entire pack on my own?
