The Alpha’s Luna Slave

CHAPTER FIVE

THE NIGHT _ SUN PACK

ALPHA LENNOX, BETA OSMOND

ALPHA LENNOX'S POINT OF VIEW

As the Alpha of the Night Sun pack and the supreme leader of my pack, it is totally understood why I should want to meet my mate as soon as I can and make her my Luna. This has bothered me for days that turned into weeks and weeks that turned into full moons and eventually, years. I become restless with each passing day and I am not ignorant of the implications of an Alpha going years without a mate.

"Alpha Lennox!"

I hear my Beta, Osmond call as I make to take a bend at the hallway leading to my chambers. I stop abruptly, ready to entertain him, whatever his concerns were

"How would you want me to help you, Osmond?" I ask as he takes the last few steps to me.

"You do remember the invitation from the Moon Stone pack, don't you, Alpha?" He asks as he takes a last step that brings him face to face with me.

Of course he is the only one who can stand before me and stare in my eyes as he was doing, especially when I was fast getting irritated by the slightest waste of time.

"What invitation are you talking about and what is the moon stone pack hosting?"

I ask him. He steps back and throws his head back in laughter, revealing his feral dentition.

"You waste time with me and you know how much I do not want to entertain that." I snapped.

He stopped laughing.

"Well, your eyes came alive with interest when you learnt that the Moon Stone pack would be hosting the first ball for the Northeast Alphas and royalties for the season. You said yourself that you were going to attend."

I sighed. I had been far gone in my many griefs that I had let it skip my mind.

"That is totally true." I say in a more relaxed air. I start to walk away and he follows me. Osmond was not going to give up until he was sure he had drummed his message in my ears.

"Now, do you know the ball is taking place in the next ten days and you are far from prepared for it?"

Osmond asks. I stop in my tracks and turn to him, not finding any sense in what he had said.

"Am I supposed to run around the pack telling everyone that I am going to attend a ball? Is that how to get prepared for something, Osmond?"

Osmond shakes his head, implying that I had misunderstood him.

" That is not what I mean. I am only saying that you have been brooding over many different issues that you hardly have time to prepare your mind for things like this."

"Well, I have every reason to brood over a host of other things, Osmond."

"But you know well that you are attending the ball with hope to find your mate at last, not so?"

I sigh. The most important reason I was attending the ball was so that I could finally meet my mate if she existed at all. I had begun to worry too much and it was obvious in everything I did or said with members of my pack. My patience with them was thin and I snapped at even the littlest things that I could easily overlooked.

"I totally understand what you are going through, Alpha Lennox."

" Don't pity me, Osmond."

" I do not. Believe me. I only understand what you are going through being that I had also suffered before I met my mate. For an Alpha, I know what you must be going through without a mate."

"Then what would you do to help the situation?"

" The ball, for godsake!" You are going to appear there in all grace and happiness and let your mind stay calm enough for you to find your mate."

"How am I even certain that I shall find my mate there?"

I ask him. I had attended several other balls and in all those times, he had gone with the hope of finding my mate and i never did. I had also had Alphas of many different packs let me see their daughters if any of them could be my mate but none turned out to be my mate and I had eventually given up the idea of meeting any of the ladies.

"I have a strong inclination that you will, or perhaps, it might be step closer to finding your mate."

"Nonsense! What step do you speak about? I am not a lover of uncertainties."

"But how then will I know if you will find your mate there if you do not go there at all?"

" I have not said I will not go, Osmond."

"You leave me in a dilemma, Alpha. What is your stance exactly? You are going to the ball and that means you must put up an appearance that befits the occasion. I shall see that the men are ready to take you and start to put things in order for the journey. I shall also see that the dressmakers come and take your measurements and __"

" Enough! You worry me with your idle chatter. Do what you must, Osmond and leave me be!"

Osmond stands staring at me as I walk off, pissed.

******

Alpha Lennox, as a young werewolf of eighteen had started to produce the hormones that was supposed to be smelled by a mate and also help him smell his mate but he had turned twenty eight and was still without mate. He knew what was ahead of him. His wolf got even more ferocious as the days sauntered by and he was slowly losing control over his emotions.. if he went unmated for too long, or longer than he had gone already, his wolf shifter was going to dominate him and he was going to lose all sense of rationality and his thoughts and actions would no longer be his.
