The beginning

3267 Words
*Regals POV* The earth is soft here. The damp earth smells of home, it smells like memories I don't remember making. The grass is soft and damp, but warm. I feel so warm I don't want to open my eyes. I hear something, a song. It sounds so familiar, but I don't remember my mother singing it. I reluctantly sat up and opened my eyes. A bright beautiful sun shines in my eyes. There are trees that have so many different colored leaves on them and they don't look real, the grass is such a luscious forest green. There's a pond a few feet away from me, it's so clear. I could see the clouds and the sky. I stood up to look at the water, my reflection was clear, my skin was clear, my red hair looked so healthy, so full, so vibrant. It was like anything I had ever seen in myself. Everything was so clear, so beautiful, so safe. There was no yelling, no Jake, no Alpha. Everything seemed so clear. I don't know how I got here, but I want to stay. There's a wolf pup sitting on the hill near the pond. I felt this pull to go towards it, to run towards it. My lungs and legs were burning, begging for air and rest. "Man, this pup is fast." We came to a clearing, and went into the woods. But I'm not scared to go into the woods though. I felt the pull and couldn't see the pup, so I assume they went into the woods. I stop running, I gasp for air. As my lungs burn and ache from the sudden rush of air, I couldn't have felt better though. I feel so serene, so calm. When my lungs feel back to normal, I begin to continue walking until I see a clearance, and the pup is in the middle of it, staring at me. The pup turns away from me and looks to the side and trots off to a woman in an ivory cloak. The cloak is beautiful and shines so bright, but not blinding me. I start to feel the pull again as the pup walks towards the woman in the cloak. I start walking towards the woman and feel so calm and safe the closer I get to her. When I am just a few feet away, she turns to look at me and I realize who she is. Moon Goddess... But what could the Moongoddess want with me? Did I do something wrong? She's so beautiful. I don't even realize that she has walked up to me as I am taking in all of her beauty. Her jet black hair fell to the middle of her back and was flowing graciously. She wasn't much taller than me, she wore a white knee-length dress. The floor-length cloak hands on her. Her eyes were a beautiful gray, blue with hints of gold flecks in them. My ears felt like they were under water. She just stares at me, waiting patiently, a small gentle smile and she puts her hand calmly on my shoulder and I feel clear again. Her smile widens and she takes her hand off my shoulder. I give her a shy smile and I can feel my face heat in embarrassment. "Hello my beautiful child" "H-Hello." I feel this urge to bow to her, so I start to bow and she places her hand on my shoulder, still smiling at me. " There's no need for that, dear." "yes ma'am" "am I.. am I dead.." She gives me a reassuring smile and takes my hands in her hands. "No dear, you're not, you are in the inbetween. This is the world I created for my children who are in between death and life." Panic rises from the pit of my stomach as I remember what happened and how I even got here to begin with. I feel like my jaw is on the floor, and I'm sure she can see the panic on my face. She gives my hands a light squeeze as to pull me from my thoughts. "There is something important you need to know about your life. You are not who you think you are, you are not who you were raised to be. There is danger coming to you." "What do you mean? If I am in the inbetween, don't I have to choose between going back or not?" Panic is now frozen into my veins as I fear going back and getting punished by my alpha and my parents. Fear is all that I am feeling while looking at my creator, the one who chose me to live on this earth and live in my pack. Feeling slightly angry with her for putting me with such a ruthless alpha and such a disgraceful son. "Yes, you do have a choice, and although I can see you would like to stay here, it is not your destiny to stay with me yet. You have so many things to accomplish, so many things you never thought possible before." My anger is filled with curiosity now as I remember the pup that sits next to her. I looked down at the pup. She then looks down at the little pup who is sitting calmly sitting next to her wagging its tail. She bent down and picked up the pup, releasing my hands from hers. The pup settled in her arms and licked her cheek gently. "This is your wolf. I brought her out to help you over to me. She is just a pup. When you turn 18, she will be the same age as you. Her name is Tali." "Tali". What a beautiful name. It is at this moment. I took a moment to examine the pup as she now looks at me. She is gorgeous, she is pure white and with patches of silver running along her tiny body with one eye a deep brown and the other eye a golden color. My eyes widen as I take in the beauty of this wolf pup the Moon Goddess is holding in her arms, gently petting her as if she was the first pup to ever be created. This is my wolf, my wolf that I am meeting for the first time. " She's white.... I've never seen a white wolf. Will she stay white?" "Yes she will, she was created for you, you don't know, but you have something special waiting for you. You just have to find the courage to run and grasp it. I know you would like to stay here but, I want to ask if you would like to go back." Without even thinking about it at first, just watching this beautiful pup in her hands, I nodded my head. She smiles gently and puts the pup down. "Good, I am glad you have chosen your destiny over this new tragedy." With the whisk of her hand, she disappears and I am in the calm and safe darkness again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *James POV* It's not that I necessarily care about the Omegas, I just don't want to seem like a cruel alpha inside my pack, because that is when people are going to try to overthrow you. As for Jake, I cannot give him the title now because the news will spread around the packhouse that he will be a terrible alpha who does everything wrong. Goddess I'm so angry with him that I could snap him in half and walk away without a bit of remorse. Jake had always been a disappointment, but when I told him that I would be giving the title to him soon, he started to straighten up.. a little bit anyway. He still went out and partied, would take home a different girl every night. Goddess take he is such a wh**e. I would talk to Jasimine about it later, but for now I have to talk to the doctor about this mutt's condition so I can let the packhouse know if she is going to die or not. Cleaning up yet another mess that my son has made. Making me look like a bad alpha for not keeping a tighter leash on him. Dr Anderson pulled me from my thoughts, he is one of the pack doctors here at Silver Lake. "Hey doc, how is she doing?" "Well, she has lost a lot of blood from a very serious wound on her head, and some very serious bruising, some of them look old and some of them are definitely new. We stitched her up and put her in a medically induced coma so she can heal, since she doesn't have her wolf yet, it will take her longer to heal. What did you say her name was Alpha?" I realize I don't even know who this mutt is that is in the hospital, in my pack. I didn't know half of the worthless omegas that worked here and lived here, except Ruthe, who was the head omega and was in charge of meal planning and keeping the omegas in check. I looked at the doctor and told him I wasn't sure that she must be new and we just hadn't had the chance for a welcoming ceremony yet. He looked at me with a lot of anger in his eyes, telling me that he had seen her before. He says nothing though and continues on about this girl's condition. I nodded understandingly and shook his hand, signaling that this conversation was over. "I need to go and check on my son, excuse me, Doc." "Oh yes, of course. I am actually your son's doctor too." We walked up to the nurses' station and one of the nurses handed him a different clipboard. He is examining it before he speaks, going over the paperwork on it. "Your son has a minor conclusion and had some glass in his back but we got it all out and I would like to keep him over night with you just for observation if you don't mind Alpha" "Go ahead doc, whatever you think is best for him." I couldn't care less if he didn't wake up at all because of how much he embarrassed me. I had to walk that mutt all through the packhouse to get her into the back of the aid van. Everyone saw me. Everyone knew what my son had done. "His room is down the hall and, too, room 234, Alpha. If you would like to go see him, the Luna is with him now." Sensing my anger, he decides to go ahead and walk away when he is done telling me about my disgrace as a son. I decided to go ahead and go to his room and hoped to get this yelling by Jasimime over with before we got back to the packhouse and she decided to do it in front of everyone. I slowly walked down the hall, to my son's room. I stared at my son as I stared through the already open door. I let my alpha aura expand in the room as I'm walking in, hoping to make him listen to me and understand what I am about to say to him. Jasimine shoots me a glare as I walk up to sit in the empty seat next to our son's bed. I decided not to say anything to her except that the doctor said he wanted to keep Jake for the night to observe him and make sure he was okay. After a few minutes of silence between the three of us, Jasimine gets up and shuts the door. Knowing that she is getting ready to yell at me as her Luna arua expands to meet my aura, I slump in my seat pretending to feel bad for our son. She walks up to me and slaps me across the face so hard I thought she broke my nose. My hand went to my now burning cheek as she is now telling me how awful it was to throw my son down the hallway. How disrespectful it was of me to downgrade our son in the packhouse, with the pack members in it showing them that he isn't worthy of being alpha and now they wouldn't respect him like they do me. By the time that she was done yelling at me, the burning in my cheek went away and I was just angry now. I calmly got up from my seat and walked over to her and put my arms on her shoulders. She calms down and walks back to her seat and watches me as I walk and stand at the end of my son's hospital bed, who is now looking at me with anger and disgust and even a hint of pity. "You will not become Alpha until you can learn to get your sh..i.t together, you will not take MY spot in MY pack unless you can get your emotions in check and STOP ACTING LIKE A F..KING CHILD" My voice shook the walls in his room as I saw the shock between him and Jasimins face. With that, I calmly walked out of the room. Leaving my Luna and son to ponder my decision. Slamming the door on my way out and back to the packhouse. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ *s****l assault occurs at this point. Please skip it if you need to. TRIGGER WARNING** *James' POV* The last thing I remember before hitting the wall and blacking out was standing over this f..king omega who was in my room with two other mutts. I locked the door as this mutt stared at me. She's frozen with fear and it makes my c.ck twitch with excitement as her fear fills the air. I ripped her shirt off, grabbed her bra and, in one swift motion, wiped it off her breasts, leaving them bare. I do the same with her pants and leave them shredded to pieces like the rest of her clothes, leaving her just in her panties. She puts her hands on her breasts and tries to cross her legs, hiding her body from me. I I get angrier than I've ever been and grab her by her arms and shake her "SHUT UP YOU WH**E!!" but she just cries more and her fear gets me. But the crying is so ugly. I hate it when they cry. These mutts are so f..king annoying! But I always enjoy a fight. At this point she is sobbing, trying to say something I cant understand.. "Please d-d-dont j-jake, a-alpha j-jake im so-sorry for whatever i -i did to a-anger you." "I SAID SHUT UP!" I pick her up by her throat and throw her against the room, she hits her head on the corner of the shelf hanging in my room and slumps to the floor. I I lifted her above my shoulder after I took my shirt off and put her on my shoulder about to throw her on the bed, when I hear my father banging on my door. I swear he's so fu..ing annoying, why the h.ll would he bother me? "I'M BUSY, WHAT?!" "GET THE F.CK OUT HER JAKE!" his voice shakes the door. I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Guess you'll have to wait till later" I said to the mutt, who was slumped over. Angry that she is getting blood on me, I drop her on the floor and reluctantly go open the door. My father grabbed my throat and I fly down the hallway, flying past my mother as the elevator opened. Crashing into the framed painting on the wall at the end of the long hallway. I feel the glass going into my back but cant scream out as my father has broken my windpipe. I passed out engulfed by darkness. A few hours later *Jakes POV* I drift into consciousness "beep" ugg what the h.ll is that noise, where am I? "beep" I open my eyes and get hit with a bright ass light in my eyes, so I just shut them and wait till I hear someone come back in. Someone came in and I wasn't sure who it was until I took a whiff. It's my mother. Great. Just what I need. "Oh sweetie, how are you feeling?! Are you okay?! How's your back?!" " Mom, turn the lights down, I don't have a voice because SOMEONE crushed my windpipe. But I can still mind the link at least." She turns the lights down and comes to sit next to me. My mind links me to talk about what happened, but I didn't want to talk about it, so I just told her to shut up. She looked bothered by what I said to her but more angry about the situation. A few minutes more and my father walked in and stared at me with anger in his eyes and I had anger at him for embarrassing me. I knew that he had carried me out in front of all of the pack members and I had to be subjected to the whole pack so that my father injured me. It made me look weak. My father took the seat next to my mother and said that they were going to keep me over night for observation. The silence that I knew only lasted a few minutes. It felt like hours and then my mother got up and closed the door to my room. She turned around and gracefully walked up to my father and slapped him so hard I thought she had broken his nose. She yelled at him but in a tone that was stern where no one else would have heard her. She said it was wrong that he threw me down the hallway and that circumstances, under No, she said that she didn't have any right to do it to me. She had said it was embarrassing for me to get taken out of there and know that he had done something to me. That now people wouldn't think I was fit enough to be an alpha anymore. It was true, people in the pack were going to look at me like I was not fit to lead them. All because my daddy punished me for something that I'm sure he'd done a million times before he met my mom. It was a worthless omega. My father gets up and comes to the end of my bed, fury still in his eyes, he centers himself in the middle of my bed. I stared at him in disgust. With so much anger, so much shame at what he did to me. In my packhouse. I'm glad that he will be giving up the pack, giving me the pack where it belongs. He is delusional about keeping the pack so long when he could have given it to me five f..king years ago when I turned eighteen. I by pulled from my thoughts at his booming but calm voice. "You will not become Alpha until you can learn to get your sh..i.t together, you will not take MY spot in MY pack unless you can get your emotions in check and STOP ACTING LIKE A F..KING CHILD!" I turned to my mother with more rage than I have ever felt in my life. "I WILL MAKE HIM PAY FOR THIS MOTHER AND YOU WILL NOT STOP ME!!" She gets up and walks out of the room.
