CHANDA'S REBIRTH: AWAKENED UNDER THE BLOOD MOON.

SIX MONTHS EARLIER.The air in the clearing was filled with anticipation as werewolves-male and female, alphas and omegas, from different packs, far and beyond, - all gathered as one, chanting and screaming, eager to witness the battle of Alpha supremacy. The Lycan Trial, fought under the light of the full moon, promised the arrival of a new Lycan king that will continue to strengthen and protect the years’ long bond between packs of the West region.Velkan of the Goda pack, stood at the edge of the window, awaiting the rise of the full moon to seal his fate. It wasn’t supposed to be like this, he thought, glaring down at the clearing. His dead father had been the Lycan king, loved and most importantly feared by all. His older brother was supposed to be in line for the position but he too had died on that fateful night, leaving him now , to have to fight and prove he was worthy of the position. “If I didn’t know better, I would have said you were nervous.” He turned to the voice. Ai

It was a long journey to the Goda pack but Chanda was in an utmost state of bliss. She stuck her head out the window of the car, letting the fresh breeze wash over her face as she admired the dusty roads and beautiful mountain tops. They drove past lakes and fields while she imagined herself running out the car, heading straight for the fields, never having to think of going back to the Montana pack.“Close that window, omega. Mia is going to catch an illness from all that dust.” Sera said, spoiling her daydream.“Yes, my lady.” She responded.The car came to a halt at the front of a checkpoint and they were approached by men dressed like guards. Sera held up a card and announced proudly, “I am Sera, Luna of The Montana pack and that’s my daughter, Mia. We are here for the Luna Ritual.”“Who’s the red haired?” He asked pointing at Chanda.“Oh, a nobody. Don’t mind her presence. She is my daughter’s personal servant.” Chanda sighed at the description, Sera sure knew how to make her fee

Every single female wolf dreams of her mating ceremony, when she would marry her mate or at least someone she loves, leave her pack or family and start a new life. Chanda always knew that might never happen for her, being a lowly omega and all. But she never in her life imagined being forced to become the Lycan Queen.She stood naked, in front of a mirror, in the room prepared for her to get ready to wed the Lycan King, staring at her reflection. Bruises were all over her back and arm from the beatings she had gotten from Sera and Velkan.“Chanda?” Mia walked in. “When do you plan on covering up? Everyone’s waiting.” She said.Chanda ran and dropped at her feet. “My Lady, please forgive me. I beg you. I still don’t understand what happened.” She pleaded.Mia stepped away from her. “It’s a really good plan I must say. I’m even surprised my mother didn’t think of it herself. You were always a clever sort.” She walked to the window, staring outside. “I remember I warned you to not make

Chanda didn’t think she had tears left in her body to cry anymore.She had cried when Velkan stormed out of the clearing after marking her. She had cried when Mia had walked past her without even glancing her way. She had cried while Sera had rained curses on her for bringing shame to their pack.She had cried herself to sleep on the floor in the Luna’s chamber after Leia had left her.Now, she laid on the floor, hugging herself, wishing this was all a nightmare and her life will go back to normal.‘My Lady!” A young maid opened the door, looked in and rushed when she saw Chanda, laying on the floor. “My Lady. Are you alright? Are you hurt?” She ran her hand over Chanda’s face to see if she was alive.Chanda only whimpered and stared at her in response.“Oh, I need to get the Lycan.” The maid turned to the door.Chanda gripped her arms in fear. “No, no, no. Please. I will get up.” She hurried to her feet, eyes pleading. She looked around the room, sad to see she was still living this

‘It’s been exactly six days’, Chanda thought as she laid on her bed and stared at the ceiling of her room. Six days since she became Velkan’s Luna. Six days since she had come so close to tasting the freedom of death at the hands of Velkan.Six days since she has been waiting in fear of his return.“Rise and shine, my Luna. It’s time!!!” A young maid came into the room, singing at the top of her voice.Chanda got to her feet. “Time for what, Mariam?”Mariam was the new maid that Leia had assigned to her. She was a young teen with a bubbly energy that always amused Chanda.“Time to show the world, the beauty that is the Goda Pack’s Luna.”“Very funny.” Chanda smiled at Mariam and sat back on her bed.“See, I told you. Your smile is really pretty.” Mariam pouted. “Maybe if the Alpha went to bed every night looking at your face, he might actually wake up in a good mood for once. Who knows? he might even fall in love.” Mariam joked.Mariam was a die-hard romantic who believed that Velkan
