THE LAST MOON QUEEN

Tonight was the mating ceremony. Korg is supposed to be crowned the new Alpha of the Moon Crown Pack, he had always desired to be. The hall was full of influential and prominent businessmen and tycoons from around the country. Soft background music is heard. Everyone appeared in their expensive party gown and suit, drinking and vibing gently to the music as they waited for the main event to commence. Inside the hall was heavily crowded. Tonight, Korg would be crowned Alpha and also choose a mate. Excitement and anticipation fell on all the young wolves at the gathering. Who would Korg pick as his Luna tonight? They haven’t seen her with any female wolf before, so everybody’s hope was high as they wished he would pick them as his queen and Luna. The Moon Crown Pack was the most influential and richest amongst the other packs. So being a Luna to Korg means a lot to these ladies. Korg wore a dark blue suit, smiling chin to chin as he walked around with his shoulders high. “Alpha! Alpha” People cheered at him excitedly as he stepped out of the hall to the open space outside where people danced and drank themselves to a stupor. The party was yet to commence but had already gone down. His phone rang and it was Linda. His estranged girlfriend is the mother of his unborn child. His countenance changed immediately. For some reason, he dislikes Linda and makes sure their relationship is a deep secret. He let the phone ring for a while before picking up. “Hey Korg,” Came Linda from the other end of the phone. “ I’m already close to the venue my Alpha, I can hear the blasting music.” She said happily. “Where are you?” Korg fumed. He never wanted her to come. She would ruin things for him. Linda is a witch he met at Blackthorn forest the night he tried exploring which was greatly forbidden. He intended to keep it simple and just use her as a s*x machine to quench his ravishing thirst. But things took a wrong turn, Linda fell in love and refused to let him go. He couldn't just break up with her, he feared she was too powerful a witch to let the pain slide. Worst, Linda is pregnant for him, heavily pregnant and soon to have the baby. This has caused so much despair for Korg. The Pack would frown at this. As the future Alpha, he was meant to mate with a wolf and breed a pure wolf to succeed him just like the previous Alphas before him. “I told you not to come Linda, why did you disobey my order?” He asked with so much irritation. “But tonight is your biggest night, I know how much it means to you, I want to watch you be crowned and celebrate the moment with you.” “Linda but you're not a werewolf.” She paused. “I can see you from here, turn around.” He hesitated. He sweated a bit on his forehead. “Damn it!” He gushed out as he growled a little not too loud and hung up, he was absolutely pissed. He turned slowly. Her shimmering golden dress glittered. She stood a bit far from the party ground under a big oak tree, but he knew it was her, she had asked him to turn around. At this point, her stomach was visibly big enough for the blind to see she was carrying a baby. Luckily for him, the shade she stood in was dark enough to cover her and only allowed the golden stones on her apparel to glitter. As he made to step out someone called him from behind. His heart skipped a little. Linda is a secret and should remain as one. Whoever called him from behind must not see her. “Long live the Alpha, the party will start in a few minutes, I was asked to inform you of that.” Said his Beta. He sighed. “I'll be there in a minute, let me say hello to my guest.” The Beta bowed slightly and left. Korg watched as he went into the hall of the event, he had to make sure no other eye was on him. Then he sneaked over to the tree. It was dark but he could see her smiling broadly at him. “My Alpha.” She whispered in his ear as she hugged him. He felt so uneasy. “Linda, you need to leave.” “Why? You are to pick a mate tonight, and I should be here.” “No Linda! You're not a wolf.” His face was stern. “You say that often and I don't care a bit, you have to choose me tonight, as your Luna Korg. Wolf or not I’ll do everything in my power to blend in.” “Blend in?” He laughed in a wicked manner. Linda got confused. “Korg” She called out softly. “Linda I am the future Alpha, tonight I’ll be crowned, I need my fellow wolf to run this empire with me.” Linda gasped in devastation. How could he tell her this now? “Korg, you mean you’ll pick another over me tonight?” She asked softly, at the point of tears. “Linda……just go! Leave here” “I am pregnant.” She yelled. He held her immediately, using his palm to cover her mouth as he looked around to see if anyone heard her. He bit his lower lip so hard. His hand was still placed on her mouth. “Linda just go, after tonight I’ll come over and we’ll talk about this.” He said. She shakes her head vigorously giving a no sign. She was already soaked in tears. Heartbroken. Heavily pregnant. Abandoned. Korg removed his hand from his mouth. She obviously had a lot to say but tears already took words away from her. She almost choked on her words. Korg looked at her with no empathy, he tried to leave but she held his hand still crying. Forcefully he tried to let loose but she wasn't ready to let him go, this soon became a fight, and he unknowingly shoved her off to the ground. She gave out a loud cry of pain. Korg panicked. Someone might hear her. He rushed over to her. She panted fast and loud. Afraid, he asked “What is wrong with you?” She managed to respond, “ My water just broke…..I think the baby is coming.” Korg’s eyes widened in great fear as the words rang a bell in his eardrum.
