THE ALPHA & HIS OMEGA

THE PACK FAMILY

Every werewolf loves the run, a werewolf enjoys the run because they feel more alive and they see the world in a different perspective, when an alpha runs it doesn’t run alone it runs with its family, its pack, it was about 6 am and I have just finished taking the pack out for a run, we were heading back to the mansion, "bare manor".

Bare manor was an ancient castle left for every firstborn son of the dark family, my father didn’t want the castle, so he passed it down to me years ago although I hated the castle, it was a convenient place for the pack to meet and converse,

After every run, the pack would meet.

Early that morning I gathered my pack to meet, there have been rumors of a mutt on the loose attacking and killing alphas of packs in California, so every pack family was at alert and the alphas were protected by every member of the family, so Jared who was the pack sentinel,

“A sentinel ensures that the pack is safe by patrolling the territory and watching the movements of the surroundings”.

Jared was to report any suspicious activity happening around the surrounding,

Josh was the younger brother of Jared he was the pack’s doctor, in charge of taking care of an injured member, he had a PhD in medicine and he was also a doctor at the UCLA medical center, werewolf heals faster than human, a werewolf can only be killed with silver, and during the ancient wars of old between humans and our kind, the humans discovered a way to kill us so they made weapons with silver and a special squad of skilled werewolf killers were sent to the war they were known as werewolf hunters,

They killed a lot of our kind, but the ones who survived fled and started a new life with new identities leaving in secrets from the rest of the human race, many believed we have been extinct, but a few still haunt us.

Karla was our hunter, she was the most skillful fighter in the pack, and she can track anybody on the face of the earth,

she was the fastest among the pack, she had her husband Alexei navalny who was an ambusher,

“An ambusher supports the hunter to ambush prey and strike them down”

Alexei was a Russian spy, he fought in the cold war and a KGB Agent for the Russians, but when Karla saved his life in battle he swore loyalty to her and promised to protect her for the rest of his life, I met them a couple years back at a pub in Russia, well that’s a story for later, and we have Derek, he was a scout,

Scout werewolves are responsible for warning the pack when any danger is close by and also in charge of keeping the peace among neighboring werewolf clans”

Derek wasn’t always around, but for every meeting he would come with news from his endeavors.

Andrea and Antonia was the youngest member of the family, they are siblings, I saved them from my visit to Italy last fall, they murdered everyone from their orphanage on their first transformation, they were scared and alone, I remember too well what that feels like, but now they have a family.

So after the run we gathered at bare manor, as it was the tradition.

we’d have breakfast and drinks, I made bacon, Stephan made taco, oh yea Stephan,

Stephen was my beta, and also my best friend, we met after Aurelia died, he was a journalist, he was one hell of a journalist, going after the big corrupt companies, always fighting for the truth no matter the cost, well that cost was his family, his family had just been murdered by some very powerful people, and they tried to kill him too, he was hit by a car, at the point of death, I made him an offer to help him bring down the people responsible for his family’s death,

I turned him into a werewolf and together we brought hell and destruction down the path of everyone responsible for his pain.

So after breakfast and drinks, Derek warned of a mutt uprising,

“There is a war coming" he said

Some powerful werewolves’ beta had gone rogue to form a pack and they were attacking alphas of packs in California, they were led by a werewolf named "Nicklaus"

When i heard it was nick i was surprised,

"Nicklaus is my older brother, after my father, and i he was the most powerful werewolf i had ever seen, he was my father’s favorite, did all his dirty work,

I figured this must be my father sending a message to me, if this is a message from my father, I needed to send him my message as well. I Knew i needed to talk to nick alone first to find out what my was father wanted

The pack murmured in confusion as they should, many of them knew my brother, only a few didn’t and Andrea and Antonia didn't so they asked out of curiosity

“Who the f**k is Nicklaus?”

I had to address them, at this point they would bring the roof down. I didn’t need to sit for this, they were my family and they needed to be brave now if we were all going to make it out of this alive, i knew dad had a powerful army and with nick the master battle's man, it was definitely going to be a challenge for us.

So I stood up to address the pack,put their mind at ease, they were all counting on what I had to say

I didn't want to give a speech, i just wanted to assure them that no matter what, i would always protect them and together as a team, as a family we have faced worse days and we will always prevail.

“when I lost Aurelia, I was scared, hopeless, I felt my world was ending,

"I thought of ending my life, hell I even tried, but am one hard son of a b***h to kill, there wasn’t a reason to keep going,"

"But then I met a man who even after losing everything he had, his wife, his son, he was just six years old, his daughter, she was four, they where are murdered, even though he had nothing else to live for, he had that pain, that rage and that anger, he fought hard, even when he was weak, he got powerful and made his revenge on everyone responsible for his pain, and in the process he made a friend, a brother and a family",

"You all are my family, and together we are strong, nick is my brother, he’s powerful, an enemy like none we have faced before and he’s working for my father, this is his way of trying to control me like he has always wanted, but we have all felt pain and loss and that’s why we are the strongest pack in California, so let them come boys,"

"let’s show them how strong a real family is, now we train, we plan and we wait, it’s war boys, drink up”

The pack roared in cheers,

I could feel their spirit lifted as they smiled and drank

A good alpha always motivates its pack, I knew nick was close, I could feel him calling, it’s was time to go say hi to my brother,

it has been a long time since i last saw nick, we used to be so close, until my father made him his wolf general, and power corrupted him and he changed.

But maybe, there was hope for him yet, maybe the brother i once knew was still there somewhere, the only way to find out was to go looking for him so,

while the pack cheered and laughed, I walked out, tore my clothes off, turned into a wolf and ran into the woods.
