Prologue
It was supposed to be a happy time for the Alpha and Luna of the Pearl Moon pack but, rogues were invading the pack. The couple had just had their first baby a little girl they named Evangeline. She was born a full Alpha female which is rare in the shape shifter world but this could be told through the glow in her bright blue eyes and later when her wolf is seen as pure white.
Full Alpha females tend to be given supernatural gifts which makes them valuable to any pack. Evangeline's mother was just happy to finally be holding her baby, something she never thought was in the cards for them. Her and her husband the Alpha had been trying for years to have a baby and when they finally did the largest rogue pack was invading their land.
It was unheard of to have such large packs of rogues as they have no true leadership. Rogues also lose most of their human side and act more like savages than anything, only leaving destruction and death in their paths. Which also causes hunters to find them and kill many of the rogues.
"Rogues are entering from all angles Alpha" his Beta Theo said
"Protect the Luna and baby at all cost" said the Alpha as he ran to the battle field
The pearl Moon pack was one of the strongest wolf packs in the south so, it was odd for them to be attacked but, this rogue pack was ruthless and killed some of the pack's best warriors. When before long several of the rogues managed to get past the defenses the Alpha knew he needed to turn back and protect his wife and new baby.
Meanwhile three rogues sneaked into the pack house. As if they knew exactly where they needed to be they went up the large spiral staircase and burst into the Luna's courters. They first circled around the Beta and in one movement they attacked throwing the man off for a bit but he soon regained his composure killing the three rogues as three more entered the room but this time one of them was able to grab the Beta by the throat and rip it out a fetal wound for any shifter. At that time the Luna placed her baby down and shifted into her white wolf but, she was still weak from her recent delivery. She was able to kill the first two rogues when another one entered and was able to throw her down allowing the other one to rip out her throat killing her.
One of the rogues in the room then shifted into his human form and grabbed the small baby and smiled at her.
"The rumors are tree she is destined to be a full Alpha wolf" he said with a smile on his face
At that time the Alpha had stormed into the room and seen a man holding his infant daughter in his arms and his wife dead at his feet. Still feeling the intense pain from the mate bond being broken by death anger surged through the man. He went to first ripped the head off the rogue not holding his daughter and then let out a large growl at the other. The baby was gently placed down and a smirk was left on the rogue's face.
"No matter what happens here today, we will win in the end and that daughter of yours will be given to the Rogue king's son" he said with a chuckle.
He then quickly shifted lounging at the alpha only to have his heart ripped from his chest. The rest of the rogues quickly retreated from the pack grounds. Blood staining the ground and death lingering in the air. Sadness now fell on the hearts of every pack member as news of the deaths of their beloved Luna and Beta spread.
The pain of her death never left the Alpha so he turned to the bottle. He left her room as she kept it prior to their attack and would sit there until he passed out drunk. Her clothes never touched and bed made with her favorite red and black comforter set everyday as if she was still alive but, the baby was never cared for my her parents.
Evangeline was raised an Alpha's daughter but not by her father, instead the Gamma Celestia raised her. Evangeline was taught to fight from an early age. She also had to learn the hard way to keep her head down when it came to being around her father. She had a black eye or two from saying the wrong thing to him.
Truth is Alpha John used to be a wonderful man and a very much respected Alpha but, now his pack detested him because all he cared about was revenge. He would send warriors to their death to find the rouge that calls himself king of the rogues without any success. Anyone that disagreed with his decision would be met with harsh punishment such as casted out or beaten.
Once Evangeline turned 16 she received her wolf and he already tried to sell her off to the Lycan king but he refused. At that point Evangeline knew her father didn't care for her at all. She decided that her father was just a danger to her and the pack and started training to challenge him for the position of Alpha. Her hope was to be ready by her 18th birthday.
When challenging for Alpha it does not have to be a battle to the death but one party or the other must submit to the winner. Although, genuinely it does end in death. Evangeline was prepared to die if she had to but, her goal was to save the pack from her father
