Xander
BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.
I rise from my slumber, silencing the persistent alarm which indicated it was 5 am. Just another day. I roll out of bed, stretching my body with a satisfying pop of joints and a flex of muscles. The routine is familiar. Off to the bathroom to attend to nature’s call, then into my workout attire. A protein smoothie prepares me for the upcoming regimen. As I lace up my running shoes, the call of the pack territory beckons, and I ran to make sure the patrol was in place.
I am Xander Coleman, the Alpha of the Black Moon Pack, a pack renowned for its size and strength, standing as one of the largest in the country. At the young age of 20, I stepped into my father’s shoes, taking on the responsibility of leading this pack. With over 5560 wolves under our banner and growing, the challenges are both invigorating and unrelenting. Growing up in this expansive pack, I gained insight into the complexities my father faced as its leader.
Traditionally, the Alpha stands as the pinnacle, the mightiest among the wolves, followed closely by the Luna. But that chapter in my life remains unwritten, for I am yet to find her. My mate. My other half. Sometimes my mother, the current Luna, lends her wisdom and helps me run the pack. I am grateful for her help.
Returning from my brisk morning run, I reenter the packhouse where I presently reside, as I am yet to find my mate. The hollow echoes of unmated wolves remind me of my solitary existence. Making my way to the packhouse’s gym, I immerse myself in a vigorous workout. As a werewolf, my robust metabolism demands consistent upkeep, and the discipline yields results. Mid-session, a seductive voice interjects.
“Alpha, could you lend a hand with these?” The voice trails a pair of entrancing eyes, and I turn to witness Stella approaching, attired in a hot pink sports bra and skimpy shorts. She was pointing towards the barbells that she could not hold. I assist her, intending to move on, yet her words keep me rooted.
“Alpha, you seem stressed. Could I offer a stress-relieving shoulder massage?” Her words dangle like a tantalizing offer, one I respectfully decline with a polite smile before resuming my regimen.
As an Alpha, female attention is a constant. I appreciate the allure, occasionally indulging, but with a caveat - my commitment lies with the pack. Pack members remain off-limits. The demands of leadership are formidable, and while my position and appearance hold appeal for many, my heart resolutely belongs to my yet-undiscovered mate, a sentiment echoed by my wolf, Xyler.
Post-training and breakfast, I navigate my way to the office, where the towering stack of paperwork greets me. An audible groan escapes my lips as I resign myself to the task at hand.
An hour later, a knock at the door interrupted my concentration, and I knew who it was by his scent. “Come on in, Dad.”
My father, Richard, saunters in, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “How’s the paperwork treating you, son?”
My father Alpha Richard Coleman, the former Alpha of our pack is one of the best Alphas out there. He has an unwavering strong aura and a brilliant mind. Not only he has been instrumental to lead the pack to the highest position in the country but also make our business list in the Fortune 500 companies year after year. Now I carry his legacy.
“It’s not funny, Dad; you already know how much paperwork can be a pain.”
He chuckled, his amusement contagious. “Well, you know, if you had a mate, our future Luna, she could share the load.”
My response was tinged with a mixture of resignation and longing. “Yes, I’m well aware. But as things stand. I haven’t found my mate, so I’ll have to manage.”
Xyler’s yearning for a mate echoed within me, a constant reminder of the companionship I had yet to find.
My father understands my longing for a mate, knowing the significance of Luna for the pack’s balance. The Luna tempers the Alpha’s vigor, offering solace and support. Werewolves rely on their leaders for their protection and guidance, mainly, their Luna. My mother, Vivian, embodies this role for my father throughout their time.
Yet, the Moon Goddess has not deemed it time to bestow my mate, although her absence weighs on me.
“The pack’s concerned, son,” my father conveys. “They’re nudging you to select a chosen mate.”
Raising my head, I met my father’s gaze. My heart aches thinking of spending my life without my mate and choosing someone else. I cannot do that. Yet,I said to appease, “I know the pack is concerned, and I appreciate their input. Maybe I will consider it as my 27th birthday is approaching. But choosing a mate is a monumental decision. I can’t rush it, and the responsibility of being a Luna is immense. Besides, I want to find her, Dad. I’m intensifying my search.”
Supportive, my father reminisces, “I understand your desire to wait for your mate. I hope she arrives soon. Finding your soulmate is a profound experience. When I saw your mother on her 18th birthday, I almost stumbled and fell on my knees. She is so beautiful.” His eyes shining with the memory and his lips stretched with the biggest smile.
Ah, yes, the tale I’ve heard countless times. My parents’ story, is a testament to love and destiny. My parents have narrated their encounters, how love found them unexpectedly, uniting them inextricably. Mom hardly knew Dad, but when they meet they just knew Moon Goddess knows what was right.
“I hope to meet her soon, Dad,” I whisper, my heart constricting day by day. If an Alpha werewolf doesn’t find their mate or take a chosen one after years, there is a chance they can decent into madness.
Understanding my sentiments, my father offered his support, acknowledging the weight of my decision. “I hope you meet your mate too, son. I’m here for you, whatever you choose. Just remember, the pack’s needs are important too. Your mother won’t be able to fulfill her role indefinitely.”
He departs, leaving an offer of assistance as I decline. Their retirement is a well-deserved time, and I want them to embrace it fully.
Growing up, I’ve revered my parents’ partnership, and their unwavering connection. Their love nurtured my belief in mates, but after nearly nine years of searching, doubt creeps in. While werewolves often unite with their mates at 18, I’m now 26. Perhaps the Moon Goddess did not decree a mate for me.
‘Don’t think like that; we’ll find our mate.’ Xyler tries to make me feel better.
‘It’s been years, Xyler. We searched every pack in the country looking for her,’ I replied, sighing in defeat. How can you long so much for someone you haven’t even met?
‘Maybe she’s in a different part of the world. We could start exploring packs in other countries,’ he said with hope dripping in his words. I know he wants our mate, too. He pumps hope and understanding into our body.
‘Let’s see what we can come up with.’ I said, feeling better.
‘All right, but after work, let’s go for a run. I need to burn this excess energy,’ he groaned, shaking his body.
I groaned in agreement, setting aside my concerns for the time being. It was time to focus on my duties and responsibilities as Alpha. After all, there was a pack relying on me.

Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comments section, and don’t forget to review and vote if you’ve liked the story.This book was my first ever work. I started this book first but MMH took priority so this book was pushed back. I learned a lot since MMH so I had to rewrite most of the chapters of TAM keeping the essence same. Thus, the editing process extended the timeline, but I’m delighted to say that it’s now complete.Now that we’ve reached the conclusion of this book, I’m excited to reveal that Alex’s story is in the works and will serve as the second installment of the Alpha series. I hope you’ll join me on this new journey, staying with us until the end of the series.You can follow me on social media. I hope I can see you there soon. I’m looking forward to interacting with you all there, addressing y
6 months later... XANDER “Are you ready?” I asked. My voice was muffled and filled with desire as I showered Aarya’s neck with sloppy kisses. I couldn’t resist indulging in her addictive scent, and the sparks between us added a thrilling touch to our love. “Hmm... Xander... stop,” she managed to utter, though her voice sounded more like a moan. The hmm sound went straight to my dick, making me feel impossibly hard and eager. ‘I think we need to cancel the press conference and take our mate in this room,’ Xyler salivated, sniffing the alluring scent of her arousal in the air. “Do you really want me to stop?” I asked huskily, kissing behind her ear and biting carefully, making her shiver in my hold. I pulled her flush against me. “Hmm, no... I mean y... yes,” she whispered, caught between her pleasure and her work, as I licked my mark on her neck again. She shivered in my hold and a thrill rushed through my spine. “So responsive, so sweet, so addictive,” I whispered, kissing her c
AaryaI stood in the serene pack cemetery, a gentle breeze rustling the leaves of the surrounding trees. Little Om, dressed in his adorable baby boss onesie gifted by Scott, wiggled in my arms as I pointed to the plaques dedicated to my departed family members. “This is Nanu (maternal grandpa), Nani (maternal grandma), and both your Mamu (maternal uncles). And this is where your uncle Scott is,” I said softly, my voice filled with sorrow and warmth.I couldn’t resist kissing his chubby cheek as he reached for the flowers I had carefully placed on the plaque. Xander has dedicated a plaque for my family in the pack cemetery as a place to remember them.The sight of Om holding Scott’s gifted teddy bear, saying “Yass queen” in Scott’s voice whenever you bopped its nose, tugged at my heartstrings. These were some of the cherished things in Scott’s gift basket he had prepared for Om in his apartment.Gently, I set Om down on a soft blanket and handed him his favorite teddy. With a bitterswee
XanderThe sight that greeted me that day was both heart-wrenching and awe-inspiring. Fallen warriors lay motionless, their sacrifices etched in the annals of our pack’s history. The battlefield was strewn with bodies, a poignant reminder of the price of war.My heart weighed heavy with sorrow for the loss of around 40 brave wolves from my pack and over 400 lives from our side. We honored not just our fallen pack members but also those from other packs who fought alongside us, standing against the enemy.With a heavy heart, I walked among the wounded, offering words of encouragement and support to those who were still fighting for their lives. Our skilled healers, guided by Dr. Heather’s expertise, worked tirelessly to tend to the injured, ensuring they received the care they needed.Steven and Harry were directing the recovery efforts with efficiency. They coordinated the pack members to rebuild what was damaged. It was essential to resurrect our pack lines with the help of a witch. T
XanderMy paws pounded the forest floor as I raced toward my pack, the pungent scent of battle filling my lungs long before the chaos came into view. The forest resounded with the clashing of metal and the fierce roars of werewolves, a tumultuous scene that unfolded before me like a vivid painting of desperation and mayhem.I shifted to my wolf as soon as I saw my pack line, knowing I could reach my pack faster on four legs. As I approached our pack, I could see the devastation left in the wake of the enemy’s assault. Bodies lay strewn across the forest floor, and the metallic scent of blood mingled with the earthy smell of the forest.My heart pounded in my chest as I mind-linked my mate, Aarya. Our bond tugged at me, pulling me inexorably toward her. The overpowering need to hear her voice, to ensure her safety, consumed me. Through our bond, I could feel every blow she took, every painful cut and bruise she endured in the fight. It only fueled my determination to reach her side.Ale
Aarya (contd)My heart pounded in my chest as I witnessed the awe-inspiring sight of a massive... dragon soaring majestically through the sky. Its immense size and power were overwhelming, its scales glistening like polished obsidian in the afternoon sunlight. Its eyes burned with a fierce intensity that pierced through the chaos on the ground below. The sight left me breathless, struggling to comprehend the reality of what I was seeing.“Is that a fucking dragon?” Kat exclaimed, her mouth agape in shock. I shared her disbelief; the sight of actual dragons was something I never thought I’d witness.“Luna, watch out to your left!” Steven’s urgent warning came too late, as a rogue slashed my arm with his claws, causing a deep, painful cut. Gritting my teeth, I hissed at the pain, feeling the warm blood seeping from the wound.My Baba would have kicked me from heaven, seeing me getting distracted in the middle of an intense battle. Without hesitation, I summoned my magical energy and dire
