Worth It

Nick
" So do you want to go or not?" my Betas voice pulled me from my thoughts. What were we talking about? Training? No, not training. Then it came back to me, the party for the Alpha of Blood Moon. Oh how I hate that runt of an Alpha, so tiny and doesn’t know when to be quiet. "I guess if we have to" I answer my Beta John. John has been my best friend since we were young pups. Our mothers and fathers were friends and his father Alex was my fathers beta. My name is Nicholas Marshall and no, I do not like my full name so everyone calls me Nick well, Alpha Nick now. I took over for my father as Alpha at 21 and now I am 25 and still without a Luna but I push those thoughts from my mind as my Beta keeps talking, "I know you don't like him but we need to keep the treaty in tact" my Beta mentions, "I don’t have to keep anything intact, he is the one who needs the treaty, not us" I remind him. Our Pack, the White Moon Pack is the largest pack in the Western United States with over 800 members, I don’t need a treaty with a pack as small as his.
"What is this party for now? It seems like he has one every six months." I quipped. "It's the Luna ceremony and yes, he does and you have missed the last 2 so I think you should be at this one." He reminds me. Fine. I don’t want to but John is right, I need to show my face and play nice as I am sure every Alpha from the country has been invited. "Fine I will attend, and you will be coming with me. Call and make the arrangements, I don’t want to be there any longer than we have to be." "yes Alpha" is the only response I get as John walks out to start making calls. Moon goddess, if I have to go to this party, please, make it worth it.
