A White Moon

Keaton POV

The drive to the Red Moon pack was tiredsome, first there were traffic and then some poor sucker drove his car into the railing. Both events made us forty minutes later than I would've liked.

Owen pulled up to the gate, he rolled the window down.

"Names?" the guard ask. I lean over to take a look at the guard, he was farley tall and had brown hair.

"Alpha Keaton Hayes and Beta Owen Gray for the Alpha gathering."

His eyes cloud over for a few seconds before he say. "Okay. Driver down this road. Then there'll be someone meet you."

We drove through the gates and were met with forrest as far as the eye could see. Owen drove for about ten minutes then we saw a guy pointing to us where to park. Once we step out he greet us.

"Welcome to the Red Moon. I'm Hank, please this way Alpha, beta."

I throw my overnight bag over my shoulder and follow Hank with Owen following me. Once the packhouse is in view I smell wildberries and honey. It's smelled like the strawberry and raspberry pie my mom made when I grew up. I look up and see a goddess, her piericing eyes staring straight into mine.

SHE RECOGNIZE US TOO! My wolf roars in my head followed by a loud howl.

Shut up you animal! I snub him before I stalk over to her, I stop just before I would've collided with her.

My arm snakes around her thin waist and I lean down to smell the spot that connect her lovely neck and left shoulder. I take a deep breath to fill my lungs with her scent, when I let the breathe go I feel her body shiver.

A growl rumble in my chest. A few seconds later I smell it- arousal. Her arousal!

I lean towards her again and say.

“My, my. Little mate. You smell absolutely delicious.” I nibble her earlobe completely inticed by her smell.

A delicate little moan escapes her lips. Just as I'm about to ask her name then proceed to take her up to my room she steps away from me. What the f**k?

“Come on boys, let’s go find your momma.” she mumbles an ushers two kids in front of her. Who does the kids belong to? In a matter of seconds she bolts and I'm left there dumbfounded.

"What the-" I grumble.

"Nice. I've never seen you flunk with a chick before. This is new."

My wolf is on all four in zero to none seconds and before we know it we've turned around and grabbed a hold of his collar. "You better show some f**king respect, beta. That's your future Luna."

"Sure. Chill out dude, I meant no harm."

Asshole. my wolf grunts.

We enter the foyer of the Pack house and there stands a group of men, the man in the front I recognize as the Red Moon packs Alpha, his big frame is hard to miss, I'm only a tad shorter and not as bulky as he is. On the other hand I've been told he's the father of five little ones. Impressive.

"Alpha Hayes" he greets with a small bow.

"Alpha Williams" I answer with a small bow of my own.

"Welcome. This is my beta Aaron." he presents the blonde man man next to him.

"Pleasure." I answer but my eyes keeps pulling towards the stairs that smell of her. I indicate towards my right side where Owen is "My beta Owen Gray."

"By my understanding we will become family. That means that when this gathering is over you can call me Logan." Alpha Willims says and takes me by surprise, I studie him in a new light. I'm mated to his, what? He's not old enough for her to be his daughter, I'm go back in my mind to when I read over the file on the Alpha. He's in his 30's, she must be at least eighteen for me to have found her. Is she his little sister?

"I'm sorry. I didn't get her name. It all happened very fast." I say to not act dumb while my heads spinning all over the place.

"Her name is Rochelle, Elle by short." he answer.

Elle my wolf purrs That's very pretty and suiting our little mate

I agree with him.

"Thank you Alpha." I bow my head in a small nod.

"If you both will follow this omega, she'll show you to your room for the night." A middleaged omega steps forward on que and gives an polite smile.

"Hello Alpha, Beta, my name is Joy, this way please."

She ascends the stairs that smells like my little mate. To my disappointment my mates scent continues upstairs as we go by the staris the the room furthest down in the hallway. We enter to find two comfy 120 beds, they remind me of something you'd find on IKEA but the colour is a dark cherry red. There are two drawers in each bed. Probably for our clothes.

"If there's anything else you two need please feel free to flag me or one of my pack mates and we will do our best to help you with what it is." Joy says with a pleasing smile. She's pretty, but my mind is completely occupied by the sexy little she-wolf I met fifteen minutes ago.

Just as Joy closes the door my phone starts to ring. As I look I see Lennox picture and name so I turn to show Owen my phone so he know he it is, then answer.

"Yo, bro." he says.

"Really-" I roll my eyes. "I'm the Alpha. 'Yo, bro' ain't quite appropriate to greet."

"But you are my bro-" he tries.

"What do you want?" I intrerrupt.

"Can I be acting Alpha when your away on business?" he asks. It didn't take much to get him to spill his beans.

"I'll take it that Maddox is there with you?" I refer to my other younger brother.

"Present!" I hear in the background.

"Neither one of you are acting Alpha. When I'm away Owen is. If he's away too then Tyler is. Should Tyler be away too, then dad is. Then mom. I wouldn't trust our pack with you two yet. You guys are fourteen years old. Neither of you have your wolves. So again no."

"COME ON!" I hear them both complaining

"Like it or not. Now I've got to see if I can bring home your Luna-"

"YOU FOUND HER?!?!?!" They both yell.

"I'll get back to you."

I hang up the call, then I call Tyler to check in with him. He update me on the few things that have happened since me and Owen left about three hours ago. The call is done in ten minutes, Owen and I decide to go down to the migle before the meeting.

As we come down I see Alpha Wyatt of the Blue River pack and his Beta Kenickie, come in from outside. I hear her voice without seeing her.

“I’d love that, if that is okay with you. Excuse me-”

What would she love?! And with whom other than me!? I move towards the outside where I heard her voice. Just in time to see a dude in grey leather jacket and blue jeans snake his damn arm around and pull her flush against his chest.

His hand goes up to her neck and pull away some hair only to dip his f**king face into her neck.

I hear the f**ker whisper "Mine". Then the most amazing smell reach my nose. It takes me a few seconds to realise that it's my little mate that's all hot and bothered.

THAT IS OUR MATE! my wolf roars, he rips through me and and loud growl escape me.

“What. The. Actual. f**k. Is. This.” I say out loud.

She pulls away from grey jacket and he looks up at me and have the stomach to growl at me! I growl back and Owen joins in. The man next to grey jacket starts to also growl. More growls join in but I pay them no attention as my only focus is this fucker trying to steal my mate!

Then I hear Alpha Logan say “Okay, everybody please calm yourselves. This is supposed to be a peaceful meeting. So, this is what we’re doing. Dad. Mom. Please greet the rest of our guests while we try to figure out what’s going on, with… this. Whatever this is.”

What the hell does that mean!? I turn my eyes towards the Alpha and his Luna beside him, a baby in her arms.

The Luna looks in the direction of my mate with concern.

“Alpha Keaton, Alpha Kayden, Beta Owen, Beta Mason please follow me. Elle, Adora come on.” Logan continues.

“Children. Go with the nannies.” The Luna instructs the kids as she hands over the baby to a young woman beside her.

Elle just stands frozen so when the Luna takes her hand and start to pull her with her I see my mate halter.

“Dora I think I’m going to faint.“ she states. Then her eyes roll back in her head and she falls. Pure instict kicks in and I use my speed to catch her head before it hits the ground.

Though I'm not the only one fast enough, grey jacket is just as fast.

Shitbag

"OH MY GODDESS, ELLE!" The Luna shouts as she falls to her knees. "Logan!"

Logan bends down to pick my mate up. I'll allow it only because I still decided if I will rearrange grey jackets face or not. We follow Alpha Logan as he carries the beautiful young woman in his arms.

We walk into a small livingroom and Logan sit her down in an armchair, she looks very natural in it.

"Logan. What happened?" I hear her grunt.

“Your system overloaded little sis, take it easy.” 'Little sis'? That must mean she's his sister? But why is the Luna the one who seems more concerned?

“Easy for you to say!” the Luna scolds.

My little mate looks at grey jacket and then meets my eyes. Her head goes back and forth a few times before the Alpha comments.

“I see I am not the only one that’s confused.”

“That’s an understatement.” I hear her mumble.

“Okay Elle. This is-“ Logan stands up, stretch his hand out to help her stand. Then gestures towards me “Alpha Keaton Hayes of the Golden Moon pack and his Beta Owen.”

“Hi, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” she says with a delicate voice.

“The pleasures all mine, little mate.” I smile at her.

I hear a growl across from me and meet the eyes of grey jacket, his eyes are dark with anger and he glares straight at me.

“Then you must be Alpha Kayden.” her delicate voice says.

“Kayden Michaels, Alpha of the Lupine Moon Warriors, my love.” as he speaks he gives a small bow and I can't controll the growl that escapes me and I glare. I glare at the stupid Alpha Kayden.

I notice the Luna stand up. “Okay. Can we all please sit down?”

“Yes Luna.” We all respond. Alpha and Luna Williams sit down, so does Elle and Kayden sits opposite from me.

“So. This is really confusing.” I hear Elle say.

“What’s confusing, little mate?” I retort. “It’s simple. I saw you first. You’re mine!”

“It’s not that simple! I want her!” Kayden growls.

“You can’t come late to the party and expect all the goodies to be still there for you!” I say a bit more agitated as my wolf's hackles all standing up.

“I’m not expecting anything except that you do not treat her as an object!” Kayden states with eyes black in anger.

“Okay. But she does not know you or me! How is she going to choose from that?” I ask the stupid simpleton that he seems to be.

I see my mate stand up so I turn my attention at her.

“Yes, little mate?” I ask.

“I need some fresh air. Can we go for a walk?” She look at Alpha simpleton aka Kayden then me, that means it will be the three of us, I guess.

“Sure thing, love.” Kayden responds and directs a mocking smile towards me. I narrow my eyes at him but choose to ignore it and start to walk after Elle towards the door.

When we get outside Kayden falls in on her right side and I take the left side.

“So.” She starts “I don’t know how this is going to work guys.”

“What do you mean? There’s nothing to figure out.” Alpha simpleton reply. Something we agree on, because she's mine!

Elle stops and look between us. “Okay, from one thing to another. How come you look like twins?”

I was about to respond to Kayden but stop dead in my track. I finally take a close look at him, and it's like looking in a mirror except for the hairstyle. Whilst he's got short hair mine is long enough to be pulled up in a small bun. It seems as Kayden is really checking our similarities out as well.

Elle gives us a few short minutes then keeps walking and we follow her while remaining silent. She then draw a light breath.

“Can you tell me more about you, Keaton?”

“What do you want to know?” I ask.

A few hours later during the Alpha meeting

I sneak out of the meeting to go to the bathroom, but once I'm out my wolf and I catch her scent. We follow it to the kitchen where she sits with her back to me. A colorful yet simple knee length dress hugs her every curve. I see her tenses and a shiver runs through her body, she turns to meet my eyes. Her gaze holding mine. I break my gaze free only for her subtle clevage to pull my attention. As if that's no torture enough her skirt has ridden up and her honeypot is almost visable.

"Fuck." I clench my teeth. It doesn't help so I close my eyes and draw deep breaths.

Soon a burnt cheeseball scent spreads in the room and I hear a soft yet determined growl. I open my eyes and smirk at the scene unfoldning. My little mate and her wolf are possessive.

“Can I talk to you Elle?” I ask her since neither of us have exchanged any words yet.

“We were just going to the playground.” She smiles apologizingly but the a twinkle lights in her eyes. “Do you have time to come with us?”

I really shouldn't as I'm supposed to be at the Alpha meeting, but I can't resist spending time with her. So I nod once. A girl I didn't even see hops down from a stool and walks off through another door. Elle stands and she ushers her nieces to get going. The big wolf from before pushes his way into the kitchen.

“Let’s go Keaton.” Elle says and I hold the door for the four of them.

Outside two other wolves join us. I can smell they're female and they're also a bit smaller than most male wolves.

“What is your favorite color Alpha Keaton?” One of the little girls ask, I'm not sure which.

“It was black but now I’m leaning towards pink.” I say and gestures towards her pink tutu dress while smiling towards her. “It´s a really pretty color on you, sweety.”

“Thank you!” she beams.

As we get to the playground the girls run off to play while the wolves spread out. Elle keeps walking slowly. I see her eyes cloud over for a couple of seconds then she's back with me.

“What did you want to talk about?” she asks with a smile.

“Well…” I start, I guess I should just tell her. “You asked some questions before. I didn’t want to bring it up in front of Alpha Kayden, so he would get any ideas, about me being weak. I didn’t want to put my family in danger. Last year I wasn't the Alpha of my pack.”

She turn to face me, shock evident on her face. “Please continue.”

So I do.

“My Alpha was abusive and a horrible person. He raped the women in our pack. One day I walked outside his office…” I swallow hard remembering the day. Agnes tearstained face and Farids horrible grip on her hips, drawing blood. “I heard a humping sound and stiffled crying from inside. Something inside me just broke and I slammed the door open. I shifted and attacked so fast that the bastard didn’t even have presence enough to pull out of the poor girl he’d forcefully shoved his d**k inside of.” The more I say the more liberated I feel. “Luckily she had faster reflexes than him and threw herself out of the way so I could rip his throat out. Afterwards it was discovered that the bastard had abducted and made a lot of human women pregnant over the years, then he had killed them and their babies to cover up his trails. He had also under the same time raped thirty-five women in our pack, starting at the age of fifteen. He even raped his own three daughters, one of them got pregnant but she ‘somehow’ got beat up so bad she lost the baby.”

She looks lik she wants to vomit. “What a horrible man! Completely and utterly disgusting. But it sounds like you did a lot of women a favor by becoming Alpha.”

“But I’m not from an ‘Alpha stock’.” I use an old word I heard my dad use once when I was a teenager.

“Keaton.” she says and her eyes meet mine. “I do not care about any of that shit.”
