TWO

Alpha Luther

I leave my precious Laura and return with my family to prepare for the celebration tonight. Tonight I take my place permanently as Alpha. My ailing father can no longer continue his role with the pack, and it is up to me to continue his legacy.

My mother insisted we invite Laura and her family to the celebration. She wants to see Laura and I together, but she does not condone the sneaking around and hiding the relationship. She does not think it is good for the pack or the relations with the fairy tribe for me to sneak around with Laura. It is time to come clean and endure the consequences of our relationship.

We run to the house, and the four of us, my mother, both of my younger brothers, and I settle on the porch—my mother motions for me to sit with her. I sit beside her.

"Son, it is important that you and Laura are honest about this relationship and make a decision. The alpha of this pack cannot be having a secret love affair with a neighboring tribe. It could cause problems in the long run," my mother says to me.

I lean back in my chair. "I know, mother, I only wanted to give her time to tell her parents, that is all," I say.

"How long has this been going on? I believe she has had plenty of time to fess up; tonight is the night or lets her go," my mother says.

"I will never let her go, and I love her. I want her with me, here," I say.

"I have no doubt you love her, but does she love you enough to leave her tribe and take her place as your Luna? You need her here with you, or you need to let her go. If she doesn't love you enough to be with you, then you are only hurting yourself, not to mention the pain it will cause the pack. Take charge, Alpha. Be the Alpha; I expect more from you than this sneaking around," my mother says.

"I will do what is necessary for the pack, no worries, mother," I say.

"The pack will accept her if that is a worry of her family. A fairy and a wolf would make powerful hybrids to protect the pack," my mother says.

"I am aware of what we could produce, but that is not why I am in love with her. I am in love with her because she is so innocent and sweet, unlike this wild bunch here," I say.

"Love her or not, tonight is the night. If she does not accept your offer, you must choose another Luna," my mother says.

I get up from my chair and return to my wolf form. I go for a run in the woods. The same woods I met a scared little fairy so many years ago. The day I fell in love with her and knew she was my mate. Our connection was instant. It was unreal and almost seemed fated.

I run as fast as I can back to the edge of the woods. I should be at the house preparing for tonight, but I need just one more glimpse into the fairy tribe land just in case she chooses her tribe over me.

Surely she will choose me. She promised to be mine and love me. She is everything to me. I cannot live without her. I hear paws coming up fast behind me. I turn to see my brother.

"You need to get back to the house. We have to prepare for tonight. Just think tonight is the last night mother can boss you around, Alpha," Drake says as she turns and runs back to the house.

"I am not Alpha yet," I yell at my brother.

I look out to the green grass of the fairy tribe and smile. I love you, Laura Angel. Soon you will be mine, forever. I will have you with me in my pack and in my bed, Laura Angel.

I run back to the house. I am sure my mother is fuming. She should enjoy her last few hours as head of the pack until I take over at midnight. There will be a lot of changes that take place tomorrow. I hope Laura, as my Luna is one of the changes. I will not choose another.

As I run back to the house, I see a lone wolf running in the woods. Occasionally there are a few rogues that pass through our land. They never cause any problems, and we do not give them any either. As long as they keep moving, I am okay with them passing through our woods to their next destination.

I watch him for a moment, and he seems to be watching me too. He is probably afraid I am going to go after him. I really do not have time to fight anyone right now. I have a mother to piss off and the love of my life to get ready for right now. After a moment, he starts moving faster. I turn and run toward the house.

"Are you done with your tantrum," my mother asks as I run upon the porch?

"Watch it, old woman, I might be your son, but I am also your Alpha," I say to her, laughing.

"Enjoy it, son. After midnight there will be no time for games and nonsense. You will take all these responsibilities I have been covering for your father, and let me tell you something, son, and this old woman is ready to give it all to you, Alpha," my mother says to me.

"Good, then you will stop interfering in my love life, too. Surely you can meddle in Drake and Silas's love life for a while and let mine alone," I say as I go into the house.

I have to prepare myself for taking over as the Alpha. I need to spend time with my father before the ceremony. Maybe he can help me handle his Luna until midnight.
