ALPHA RYAN (BLOOD MOON)

RIANA Here we are again, attending one of these ridiculous Alpha crowning ceremonies if you want to call it that. I am attending the ceremony with my twin brother Raid and my parents. This time the ceremony is to appoint the next Alpha of the Black Sword Pack. I must say that these things annoy me to the core. I am constantly surrounded by horny, unmated males that want to push their luck with me. If you must know, it is extremely hard being a female werewolf, especially when your body decides to go into heat. Well, I have never gone into heat because I haven’t found my mate yet, but I have heard the stories. That is when all these vultures really come out to play. I am constantly reminding my parents that one day I will really have to kill one of these male werewolves. The only response I ever receive from my mother is her telling me to act and behave like a lady. She sometimes forgets that I am the strongest she-wolf in our pack. Let me put this properly, I am one of the strongest females to have ever lived in our time. It may seem crazy, and you are wondering how we knew this. Well, it is simple. When my mom was pregnant she was told that she was carrying a special child. When Raid and I were born, she originally thought it was Raid, but it happened to be me. My brother is the next Alpha of our pack, guess what? I am his f*****g beta. I never wanted that position, but according to my parents, the moon goddess chose me. I call it bullshit, they just wanted to hide the fact I have Alpha blood like Raid. I never did care for any form of power. I just always wanted time for myself and freedom to do whatever the hell I wanted. Now I am his second in command and must cover up his duties when he's away for Alpha meetings. It is not like he runs our pack, but dad has taken a little step back, so it is like the Alpha position is his without a ceremony. I know what you think I shouldn't be there protecting him? I leave that work to his best friend, who so happens to be his omega. I hate attending those meetings. Hence, I am so not interested in this stupid and f****d up ceremony. My family and I are from the Blood Moon Pack. Crazy name, right, but wait before you judge. It was said that many years ago our pack got its name because of the period of the blood moon. This period makes werewolves stronger, so the pack elders chose the name. I am dressed in formal attire, wearing a form-fitting black dress with an open back that drops until the tip of my gluteus. My dress also has a slit on the right side of my thigh, along with a dipping sweetheart neckline, exposing a little bit of cleavage. How dare mom say I do not behave like a lady when I look like a goddess? I look like a bomb arise woman, not that I am bragging or anything, it is just what it is. My long and wavy black hair is tied in a high ponytail which falls over the right side of my shoulder. 'Earth too, Riana.’ I heard Raid say. 'What do you want, beast?' I said as I rolled my eyes at him. 'When are you planning on growing up?’ He growls at me. 'Says the chicken who needs babysitting from his sister.’ I said while smirking at him. 'Oh, just shut up and listen.' Raid says as he decides to face the stage up ahead, and completely forgets the reason he just snapped at me for. We are standing close to the stage because the oldest Alpha's family always get the front row for the best view, personally I do not care where I stand because this hardly concerns me. 'Quiet down.’ Dad says as he looks at Raid and me. ‘No one’s talking anymore.’ I mutter under my breath and receive a death glare from my mom. Raid chuckles at me, earning him a glare too. The speaker on the stage finally starts to speak and we quiet down, well not all of us. Everyone also does. 'Attention everybody as you all know our Alpha has retired and his son is required to take his place. The soon to be Alpha was already in training by attending meetings and handling pack affairs. Today is just the official crowning of Black Swords new Alpha. People, please give a beast welcome to Black Swords new Alpha, Ryan River.’ The woman on the stage says, and the crowd erupts in cheers and loud clapping and howling noises. As soon as the man walked on the stage my nostrils picked up a scent one, I never thought I would come across. A sexy mint and woody smell filled my nose. That is when I looked up and a muscular man stood there with all his glory. Within seconds the crowd went completely silent after these exact words were uttered from the Alpha’s mouth. 'Mine.’ Alpha Ryan says. Silence engulfed the crowd, Ryan jumped down from the stage, walks towards my family, and stands right in front of me and repeated the same words he just said while on the stage a few seconds ago. 'Mine.’ Ryan repeated, and his green eyes flashed orange. Without realising my mistake my eyes flash blue and I say, 'Mine'. Oh, dear what the f**k just happened? I think I have just met my freaking mate. Call this doom at your door. The so-called Ryan stood there in front of me, eyes still flashing orange and sniffing me. I cannot believe he is doing this when everyone is watching us. ‘Are you f*****g sniffing me?’ I ask Ryan angrily. This snaps him out from wherever the hell his mind was. ‘Why are you addressed in such revealing clothes?’ Ryan asks me looking angry at me. The guy is bluffing with me because we just met. Actually, we cannot even call it that. ‘f*****g stop lover boy, or I’ll get mad.’ He moves back from me and so do I. The lady on the stage clears her voice and people stop staring at us and try to get back to what they were doing before this. This must really be the end of my life, why did I have to meet my mate now. Dam you moon goddess.
