Howl At The Moon

Helena snow was born on a cold winter night at 9:58 pm on December 21st. the first day of winter, weighing 8pounds and 11ounces. with a full head of hair in various shades of silver. Her eyes were crystal Blue with a fire opal finish. she had the brightest smile that could melt even the coldest of hearts. or so it did with her father, Christopher snow was one of the most cold-hearted and ruthless alpha's to walk the earth. And his chosen mate and beloved bride Jessica Anne Snow, she wasn't much to play with either. together they ruled the north with an iron claw! they were a force to be reckoned with all on their own. never needing much for followers. Jessica was born half-witch half-mortal half Lycon she was blessed with the powers of the moon and the power to siphon the seasons spewing ice and fire as hot as volcanic lava from her hands. Christopher however, was only a mere wolf shifter with a strong muscular body and the love of a powerful woman by his side, thus making him an unstoppable force. Jessica, a member of one of the last lycanthrope families in existence. the youngest child and only girl born to Abigail and Henry Berandtino. for those of you who aren't familiar with the Lycan allow me to inform you, the lycanthrope is known as one of the largest, greatest Apex Predators to roam the earth, sitting right at the very top of the food chain just above werewolves. however, werewolves and Lycans share almost the same physical strength. unlike the werewolf, Lycans are said to be smarter and much more difficult to kill with their larger muscular frame and extremely deadly claws. the Berandtino's were unlike any other Lycans they were rumored to hold immense power following the aftermath of a Lycan being mated to a warlock many years ago. as you may know, wolves and Lycans alike are typically stronger when meeting their true mates. the moon goddess pairs two wolves together based on their strengths in order to create a balance in power and love. normally the wolf's mate would make them stronger but in Christopher and Jessica's case being together and falling in love was going against the moon goddess herself. think of it as when someone gives you a gift, something special just for you and you throw it away right in front of their face!. well, that's what it feels like when you go against the goddess of the moon, some may even say you're dooming yourself for all eternity. but that's a bit dramatic don't you think?. However there is such a thing as a second chance mate, which typically comes into play after being rejected by the i***t who was chosen for you. It's sorta like an escape clause in a contract, where the moon goddess goes "Oopsie! I've made a mistake" which rarely ever happens. She's a "god" for goddess sake! but when you think you know better than the goddess herself. well, let's just say in my experience it never ends well.  Although you know Christopher snow already, I can assure you'd never have guessed it but Christopher has met his one true mate before long ago. her name was Linda Romelie she was a short chubby kid with short black curls surrounding her chubby little face and had the biggest bifocals on her face that made her look like a nerdy grandmother. Christopher on the other hand had a skinny little body with a round potbelly so big he could barely see his feet. and bright red square glasses resting on the bridge of his pale tiny pink nose with a piece of tape in between them holding them together from the many times plopped down on the sofa forgetting they were in his back pocket. he was always breaking those things. The two of them grew up together in the same pack, they were inseparable almost. those two played together running around exploring every inch of the packhouse hand in hand. with Linda leading the way as Christopher followed in tow. they'd get into so much trouble together and you could tell they loved every second of it. around the time high school started Christopher started growing into his looks working out with his fellow packmates studying to become the future alpha of his father's pack, his muscular frame showing through his tight v neck, arms ripped 6pack and all. every she-wolf in school began to take notice. eyeing him from afar. some were even bold enough to walk right up to him with flirty googly eyes and drool on their chins. after a while, Linda just stopped seeming so important to run behind anymore and the two of them drifted apart as childhood pals do. around junior year Linda too started to come into her looks, and pretty soon Christopher wasn't the only one whose physique began poking through their shirts. Linda began turning heads all on her own. she had a curvy body with long black hair falling down her back. she ditched the granny bifocals for contacts sophomore year and puberty sure didn't forget about her this time around. Christopher sure did though, it wasn't until Linda became "Hot Linda" that he even began acknowledging her existence again. But by then she could care less, she became a new version of herself now being noticed by the pack and even the human boys in school. even started dating a human boy by the name of collin one of the biggest guys on their school's football team. around the time of Christophers 16th moon day, he finally met his wolf, Culver, Returning to school a new wolf 10times stronger than the day before, his anger more intense than ever before. walking past the gym on his way to the cafeteria like usual he smelled it. that wondrous aroma of sweet cinnamon apples, his favorite smell since he was a young pup. Before he knew what was happening, losing all control of his senses. his feet seemed to have a mind of their own, leading him right up to the double doors of the school gym, bursting through so loud that even the players turned back in the middle of practice looking dead at the source of the loud swinging doors flying open hitting the walls with such force. but none of that seemed to matter to Christopher at that moment. Nothing other than finding the source of that smell. looking around the gym Christopher scanning the room until his eyes lay on none other than his old pal Linda sitting there watching her boyfriends practice looking up at every chance she could to show support, still continuously glancing down then remembering to look back up once more from the book she was holding in front of her, clearly she was more interested in whatever lame book she was reading then pay Collins game any attention. Christopher stared at her like she was the only person in the room at that moment. his soul was calling out for her, but he couldn't understand one thing. standing there in the gym doorway while all eyes were on him except the one his heart was yearning for, "if she turned 16 just three months before me then she had to know" he thought to himself. Linda never even looked up at him not even once. she was a wolf herself. there was no way she couldn't sense her true mate was right there before her. peering into her soul as if it was the first time he saw her. he stood there for a few seconds more before vanishing like he was never there but all the while she knew. and that was the day his obsession with Linda started. from that day forward Christopher and a few of his pack mates began tormenting collin every day after pushing him in the halls, knocking books out of his hands. collin began receiving notes in his locker every period between classes, a new anonymous letter stating he should leave Linda alone threatening his life and it didn't stop there he even began making threats towards his family members, cutting brake lines on collins motorcycle. completely making his life a living hell. the constant need to look over his shoulder eventually grew to be way too much. one afternoon he just had enough, collin walked right up to the group calling Christopher out in front of half the student body. collin pushed past some chatty she wolfs and waltzed right up to his tormentor and outed him right there where he stood amidst all his pack members. "HEY ASS HOLE!" he shouted. "YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU AND YOUR DISTURBING OBSESSION WITH MY LINDA!!". "YOU WILL NEVER GET NEAR HER, DO YOU HEAR ME! ASS HOLE" collin shouted causing a scene prompting the other students human and supernatural all to stop dead in their tracks awaiting this long-coming fight to unfold between the two. Christopher just scuffed and walked off followed behind by three muscular wolves, his normal crew of misfits. later on, that day collin was discovered dead, and his death was chalked up to be a random animal attack. one of many around the human town. it was said that his bike ran out of gas not long after leaving school and he decided to walk through the woods over to the nearest gas station a mile and a half away, where he must have encountered a bobcat of sorts. after his death, everyone at school mourned him for a long 2 months. the principal even held a school meeting in the auditorium to inform students there was counseling offered if needed. they even went as far as to hold a candlelight vigil for his fellow classmates to gather together and talk about the good times they had with collin. he wasn't the first death from the human town and definitely wasn't going to be the last. after collins's sudden passing Linda shortly stopped showing up to school herself. no one has seen her since either. not like anyone else seemed to notice other than Christopher anyway. he never did mate her. she was just the one that got away. after Linda disappeared Christopher took some time off school as well, pack business and all. he was next in line to become alpha after his father Alpha Ang decided it was time for him to step down after meeting his new mate a young she-wolf from brazil. she was only 18 when they married so everyone just assumed she married him for his money, couldn't blame her. anyway, soon after he passed the torch down to Christopher. who needed that title like he needed a hole in his head. Christopher grew ruthless after Linda skipped town. Burning down villages, human and supernatural alike. Guess he didn't really care he only needed the space and their lands to expand his own. he continued this way until he was richer than any other alpha around. and well into his fifties. rumor has it his ice-cold heart only ever melted when Jessica joined his life. marrying her brought a different kind of beast out of him. he was fair and just with her by his side. but some say he still wasn't to be trusted. he was after all a wolf.
