Bitten by a Goddess

Taking over

*** Six Years Ago***

Jackson

"I Jackson Major heir to throne challenge you Alpha King Zachary Major to take over as Alpha of Silver Waters pack, and as King to submition, or to death."

"You're making a grave mistake, child."

My father said to me as I stood in front of him and the werewolf council. I have been researching and looking into the Rogue issue reigning on the kingdom as my father instructed when I turned 18. When I found information from a captured Rogue, and learned he had been a part of it all along, and that's when I knew I had to put an end to this once and for all. Especially when I found out he was responsible for the murder of an entire pack, and my mother... I have all the information, documents, and the Rogue as my evidence that I am presenting to the council after I beat him.

"I know what I am doing, and I am not making a mistake. Steven, please bring in all the evidence to present to the council afterward."

Steven, my best friend since childhood, and if I survive this my soon to be Beta. Starts taking all the documents, letters, and information to the council members. An that's when I see my father start to sweat, and anger gleam in his eyes.

"You talk like you have any idea what you're doing you incompetent child! I have done everything to protect you! This is how you repay me! I accept your challenge to death!"

The entire council gasped in shock and stared expectantly. I know my father is scared and thinks he can protect me from a so-called prophecy he was told by the Rogue Prince and some old witch. He was told my mother would introduce me to my mate early. That's why he poisoned my mother. The monster in front of me needs to be gone, and if I can at least take him down, I'll be able to stop this insanity. The prophecy tells of a woman who has a rare red wolf with a silver marking who wears ruby will inherit the power to tap into the earth's energy. Doing so, she can also tap into her mates' energy and kill them. My father seemed to believe I'd be mated to the shewolf and went and killed all of Blood Moon pack because he heard rumor the pack had lineage of Red Wolves. He even killed the Alpha and Lunas child. At least, that's what was documented. There was no proof she died... The Rogue Prince told him there's going to be war unless the shewolf is found. He was playing my father all along... an he fell for it.

"Alright, father... This is fairwell. "

An I shifted. My wolf is a bit bigger than my father's. My wolf carries the same coloring my wolf has white paws and white tipped ears while his only has white paws and his wolf Braxten has red colored eyes while mine has red eyes like his they are different because one is partially silver. He constantly had me checked by the pack doctors, but they said nothing was wrong...

My father lunges for my throat, and I dodge. Coming around him and getting his hind leg in my mouth, I break it. His wolf howls in anguish. I've always been faster than him. He snaps back and catches my ear, tearing it, turning around, and slashing down my jaw it burns... My wolf Asher shakes it off and jumps back. My father is limping but still quick as he goes for my throat. He misses, and I get a good chunk out of his stomach. He just keeps going. I try to get him to reason and mindlink him to submit, and he just roars out in response. Going for my ribs, he sinks into them, and we go down to the ground he trying to rip out my lungs. Asher starts kicking him, taking full control over me, and kicks him in the jaw, breaking it. He whimpers in pain, releasing me and backing away he refuses to submit again and swipes his claws towards my throat, and that's when I realize he really did mean to the death. I was trying to save my father, but I'm done with this, and I go for hus throat, ripping it clean out... his wolf whimpers and looks at me, a tear rolling out and begins to choke slowly shifting back to human my Father lays there on the floor... dead....I killed him

One of the council members speaks first

"We all witnessed Jackson Major correctly initiate a duel for Alpha of Silver Waters Pack. The pack is rightfully yours, Alpha Jackson, and as heir to the throne, it will be a pleasure working with you, Your Highness. Now, could you explain all these documents and why their is a Rogue sitting in the hallway with Braden."

"Yes, Alpha Max."

I mindlink Braden to bring the Rogue in for his testament. After going through all the documents and listening to the Rogue the council came to the conclusion and degreed my father be buried in an unmarked grave to be forgotten as the highest punishment and removed from the royal tree for his treason.

After Alpha Max started to speak with me about when we'd hold a ball for all to meet their new King, and for me to find my mate. After losing my father all because of my "mate," I don't want her. I looked at him, shook my head, and left.

***Present Day***

Waking up to a call to meet with the Council Member, I rub a hand down my face and then Mindlink my Beta and Gamma, letting them know we will be meeting with the council. Probably about how I need to stop brutally murdering rogues and burning them.

Steven is the first to reply asking if he should come with me, but I tell him, no, and that Braden and him are in charge till I return.

Heading to the Council Hall, I run into Alpha Max, who welcomes me with a handshake and a pat on the back.

"You're doing well, Your Highness," he says.

"Just Jackson is fine,"

I hate being called Your Highness. I'll never be like my father.

"Okay... Well, Jackson, " he says, looking at me with a mischievous look. "Walk with me so we can start this meeting."

Walking into the meeting room, I can tell some things off, and I'm already exhausted just by being here. I have other things I need to worry about, like tracking down the Rogue Prince he's been way too quiet since my fathers passing 6 years ago, and the Rogue numbers keep climbing rapidly.. I need to put a stop to this before it gets worse than it already is.

One of the council members starts

"Since everyone is here, why don't we just cut to the chase so he can get on with planning. Hmmmm?"

"Planning what?" Looking at them, curiousity is not written on my face; annoyed if anything

"We've all agreed that it is time for you to hold a ball and meet with your people and hopefully find your mate amongst them. To help strengthen you and your kingdom, but to also help calm down your beast...He's rather brutal and it's scaring your people"

"I dont -" I get cut off from Alpha Max

"This isn't up for discussion. Either the ball happens this Saturday, or we will have to step in for the time being."

I'm thinking about it for a moment..

"Fine, we can do the ball, but I would like it to be a Masquerade Ball.
