Mated to Alpha Hunter

Chapter One

My internal alarm goes off and I start to get out of bed and get ready for the day. My uncle, the Alpha, has a big meeting today with a rival pack, which happens to be the largest pack in North America whose Alpha is not known for his kindness, about the recent rogue problems and to decide if we were renewing our peace treaty. Even though I am next in line for the alphaship, my cousin Riley will be attending the meeting with the rival pack. My father was the Alpha when I was born making me an Alpha Female, the one and only apparently, however not many people know of my existence. My pack knows me as their Alpha Female however if other packs knew of my title it would be dangerous so, the few people outside of my pack that do know of me believe that I am just a normal wolf whose uncle happens to be an Alpha.

As Alpha female and next in line for the alphaship I am technically would be taking over as Alpha when I turn 21. In most packs the next Alpha takes over at 18, but in my pack it is 21. My cousin Riley and I are both seventeen, we were born on the same day within an hour of each other. Because of this we are parabatai, which means that we have a special connection and a private mindlink along with a few other things. This bond made us incredibly close throughout our lives. We do everything together, we go to school together, train together, hang out together. He is always by side. He is my best friend.

“Iz! Are you almost ready to go? What’s taking so damn long?” Riley yelled through our private mindlink.

“Hold on! I'm just finishing up” I yelled back through mindlink while running down the stairs putting my raven black hair up into a ponytail. I decided on a pair of black running shorts and a royal blue tank top for our run this morning. Blue is my favorite color so it makes sense that my pack name is Blue Crescent.

When I reached the bottom I ran outside to meet up with my cousin for our morning run. I shifted into my snow white wolf and excitedly leaped towards his pitch black wolf. All Alphas, and only Alpha’s, have pitch black fur. You may be wondering why my wolf is white and my cousin's wolf is black. To be honest no one really knows why but Ii’m pretty sure it has something to do with the fact that I am the only Alpha Female. And Riley’s wolf is pitch black because he will inevitably be Alpha and because his father is the current Alpha. When my parents died back when I was 6 my Uncle Antonio took over as Alpha and everyone always assumed Ry would end up taking over as Alpha when we turn 21. It has always been assumed that my mate would not be from our pack and so I would not be able to be Alpha of my home pack. Until then we are both training to be the next Alpha so no matter who it is we are prepared. However, if I were to meet my mate I would have to resign my position in line for the alphaship for my cousin to be able to take over.

We had some time before we were expecting our guests from the rival pack and I would have to leave to hopefully not be noticed by them and draw attention to myself. Riley and I took off into the woods chasing each other. We ran further and further away from the pack house dodging trees and jumping over fallen ones. We were near the pack border and it was almost time to turn around and start our Journey home. I looked over at Ry to see if he thought the same  and all of a sudden a wolf jumped out of nowhere and tackled him to the ground.
