New Alpha

I meet Jay still eating.

"How long have you been eating?" I ask snatching the plate away from him.

He looks at me.

"I'm really starving!" He answers. Reaching for the table cloth and wiping his mouth with it.

"And I haven't really tasted something like this before!" He says earning a stare from me.

"How would you even know that? You don't remember anything!" I say and I watch him run his hands in his hair with a sigh.

He gets off the chair and walks up to me.

"I'm sorry for cutting our conversation short earlier!" He says.

I didn't know how to respond. Just threw the left over food away and washed the plate.

"I'm sorry for whatever happened to your dad!"

"I'm off to work!" My mum says and leaves the house. My gaze follows her till she leaves.

Xander already left for school so its I and Jay alone in this house.

"You don't need to be sorry. I mean, it's not your fault!" I say.

"I know!"

There just seems to be something about our closure. Like some sort of force of attraction. 

"You can tell me anything you want about the werewolf. I'll listen!"

Jay 

Looking at her delicate lips. How badly I want to devour it.

It's just grace that I'm able to withstand Willy's taunts and this feeling disturbing me.

I just don't want to ruin whatever we are starting to have.

I need to get to know her first and for that, I really don't have any plans on revealing myself to her till I feel its right.

Everything doesn't just seem to make sense now.

A human, being my mate and her dad been killed by a werewolf when Werewolves are banished from this world.

Who is that, that would cross the border and kill a human?

Even I am shocked that I could cross the border with no effects like I had been told.

Really don't know what is going on and what to think but I guess I have to figure it out and I also feel there's a reason why am here.

Why my mate is a human. Like a mystery for me to unravel.

"Are you sure?" My attention returns back to her and I find myself nodding.

"I find them fascinating. From the movies to stories about them, I find them really intriguing. Their personality, lifestyle, everything about them. Having one form and being able to change in to another is really nice too. Jay, I just love them!"

So funny how she thinks being a werewolf is awesome as a human.

And here I am, a werewolf feeling being a human will be awesome.

What a coincidence. 

"Do you think you'll find one soon?" I ask and she sighs before nodding slightly. 

"I hope so! I mean there's obviously one out there, he strikes during the full moon."

"Do you really want to risk your life on a full moon just to prove that Werewolves exist?" I ask.

"What do you mean?" She asks with Her face full of confusion.

"Full moon is when Werewolves are at their deadliest moments right? I mean you could get killed. It spares no one."

"For someone who has amnesia you sure know alot about Werewolves." She says with a giggle.

"That's besides the point." I utter trying to change the topic.

"

"It's not like if I see one I'll put myself out there for it to kill me."

"Then what would you do?" I ask

"I don't know. Take pictures? Ask him to transform so I can see. Tell him to take me to his world. Elope from here with him. So many things I want to do Jay" She says spinning around with her hands outstretched. 

"That's crazy" I mutter a bit amused by her enthusiasm. 

"It's all ready in my imaginations just left to make it a reality. It sucks here. I'm all alone in my world. I just want to feel alive and want all my imaginations to be a reality. My mum here doesn't care for me that much, my little brother is a pain in the ass and my only friend Cara, she has her own life too" sadness is very clear in her eyes.

"I'm sorry!" Really don't know what else to say.

"What will you do when you find out you and this werewolf are destined to be together?" 

I said it. Yes I did but I've got to know what she thinks.

She burst in to laughter and for a moment I wondered what's so amusing.

"Do you mean that?" She asks in between her laughter. 

"Jay, if you're talking about mating, humans and Werewolves can never be mates. I mean our world doesn't collide with theirs. It's impossible " She says after her laughter dies down.

"What if it is possible?" I ask feeling so stupid for asking such questions. 

She looks at me like she's sort of displeased with my questions. 

"It's not. I know it's not. Like imagine how it would be. Jay please we can talk about other things but this." She says.

Willy groans in me with so much pain and heartbreak.

"Okay!".

"How old do you think you are?" She asks totally changing the topic and I shrug.

"Do you remember how you got to the hill?" She asks and I shake my head.

"We should go back to the hill. And walk around the area. Maybe we will see someone or find something?" She says and I nod.

Zach

The entire pack is infuriated. Jay has pulled a fast one on us. A fast one on me.

Where on earth did he go to?

Where has that moron run off to?

He has to still be here. He can't go beyond here. He just can't. They've been told the stories and I know Jay won't want to risk his life.

With every hour passing by, I feel myself loosing my patience. 

Everyone is waiting on me for another instruction. To say something. 

In as much as I try to hide it, I'm worried.

He can't cross the border but why do I feel like he has actually crossed the border.

Jay is quite stubborn. He doesn't ever listen.

If he doesn't return soon, I'll have to do what I can.

This pack must move on. He may be my son but I will definitely not tolerate any mischievous stunt of his.

Lucia comes running in. She holds on to my cloth with tears streaming down her eyes.

I'm sure she's here to nag and complain about her missing son.

She's behaving like she's the only one affected. This stupid stunt of Jay's has embarrassed us. Embarrassed me.

"Zach! Find him! Find Jay. He can't die. Surely he's alive. Maybe he's just hiding and trying to avoid this marriage. He wants to find his mate. Why don't you just let him find her. Please Zach. Find him" She holding her two hands together still pleading.

Yes I don't want him to find his real mate. He just can't.

"Get out Lucia. I really don't have time for all this rubbish!" I say shoving her away with such force.

I guess she falls and hit her face but I don't turn to look at her.

With my hands folded behind me, I walk out of the room.

Lora stands at the hallway. She looks so heartbroken and really deserted.

"Alpha, he still hasn't been found. He missed our marriage. His coronation is a few days from now and he is no where. I'm not yet a Luna. Alpha do something !" She groans and it only stresses me more.

"Lora please! Not now. I'm obviously troubled. Don't make it worse!" I say and try to walk pass.

"Make Buck the Alpha and make me his Luna!" I turn to look at her confused.

She looks at me with her sad eyes and nods continuously .

"What did you say?" I ask her just making sure I heard it well.

"You heard me. Make Buck the Alpha and make me his Luna. I want to be Luna. Buck is 18 already. He's a man already. Make him the Alpha "

"And what will happen to Jay?"

"You'll think of something. Alpha just do this. Do it. It's the right thing."

"You don't know what you're saying Lora. Go get some sleep." I say and walk out.

How can I make Buck the next Alpha.

Yes I want to step down early and let my son take over.

I'm meant to die first but I need them to rule.

Reasons best known to me.

And making Buck the next Alpha, .....
