Chapter 2- Alpha Ryder

As I stood up from the meeting, my Beta Duscha said, "It was pretty boring, wasn't it?" I responded with a grunt. I wasn't much of a talker. However, I was itching to let my wolf run free, and I also yearned for a warm body to spend the night with. I preferred a human female, as I didn't mess around with she-wolves ever since my mate passed away.

Duscha attempted to embrace me, but I evaded her and informed her that I had somewhere to be.

I am proud to lead the Blood Moon pack, and I take great honour in doing so. My pack members are satisfied and content, and I believe that I am doing a fine job.

As soon as I arrived at the Royal pack house, I rushed up to my room, took off my shirt, and headed to the backyard. I transformed into my majestic black wolf, who was proud and arrogant. Shaking his fur, he began to walk down the path with small strides. Before long, he broke into a full sprint and raced until we reached the end of the cliff where he let out a loud howl.

I understood his pain; he missed our mate, just as I did. Maxine was a beautiful and strong Luna. I loved her deeply. Maxine was a stunning and resilient Luna, and I adored her. However, she was taken from me by an illness, and I despised myself for being so powerful yet unable to save her. My wolf released another mournful howl, expressing his agony.

As soon as I finished my run, I went back to the Royal Pack House. In the kitchen, I saw my mother waiting for me with a sad smile on her face.

"Hello, Mother," I greeted her.

"My dear, you should put on some clothes. The poor maids are having an eyeful," she replied.

I looked down and realised that I was standing there naked. I sent her a curt nod and rushed upstairs to my room. All wolves had the power of super-fast speed. Once I got to my room, I quickly took a shower and dressed up in a suit.

As I was looking at myself in the mirror, Chester walked in, Ches is my Gamma and I trust him with my life, he's the only one allowed into my private chambers. I turned to him and gave him a nod of acknowledgement.

“I see you're going to the human realm, need company?” he asked.

“No man, I'm fine” I replied, assuring him that I could handle myself.

“Ok, be careful” and with that, he walked out.

I looked at myself one more time, making sure my golden eyes were back to their normal black colour then I stepped through the portal into the human world. The air was different here, thick with the scent of pollution and exhaust fumes. I made my way to my hotel, which I owned. It was a luxury establishment that my pack members could stay at whenever they wanted.

I went straight to the VIP suite, which was reserved for me, and my car keys were already waiting for me. I took a shot of whiskey to steady my nerves and then headed out to the garage. The drive to Sky High Club was uneventful, but I kept my senses on high alert, scanning the surroundings for any hint of danger.

I had been coming to Sky High Club for the longest time, so I was a VIP member. When I arrived, they showed me up to the VIP area where I was served drinks and entertained by women as usual. But something caught my eye on the dance floor, or rather, someone. She was a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair and a stunning figure. I couldn't take my eyes off her, and I felt a strange pull towards her.

I sat there, watching her move to the rhythm of the music. She was like a beautiful bird, free to fly and do whatever she wanted. I couldn't help but be drawn to her, and my eyes followed her every move.

As she danced, her long brown hair swayed gracefully, almost as if it had a life of its own. She was wearing a simple black dress that hugged her curves in all the right places, and her skin seemed to radiate in the dimly lit room.

I couldn't resist the urge to get closer to her, so I made my way down the stairs and tapped her shoulder lightly. She turned around, and I was struck by the beauty of her green eyes, speckled with gold.

"May I dance with you?" I asked, hoping that she would say yes.

She looked at me for a moment, and for a second, I thought she was going to say no. But then she smiled awkwardly and said, “Yeah, I mean if you'd like”.

I nodded in response. I wasn't there to chat; I needed someone to relieve my tension and she was the perfect human for the night.

I took her hand and led her to the dance floor. As we began to dance, I couldn't help but feel a connection with her. She moved with such grace and elegance that it was impossible not to be drawn to her.

As we danced, I caught a whiff of her scent. It was sweet and alluring, and I found myself wanting more of it. I leaned in closer to her, and she didn't resist and I kissed the side of her neck, wanting more of this sweet scent. s

She leaned in too, and soon our faces were inches apart.

I could feel her breath on my face, and my heart began to race. I knew what I wanted, and I was sure she wanted it too. So I asked, "Do you want to take this to somewhere more private?" And she nodded in response but that was all I needed.

I took her hand and led her out of the club and to my car parked waiting outside.

I opened the door for her and led her to my car. The engine roared to life as I turned the key and we began our journey to the hotel. Upon arrival, I quickly collected my keys and we made our way to the suite. As soon as the door closed, I pulled her close to me, feeling the warmth of her body against mine. Our lips met in a passionate kiss, and I could feel her responding eagerly. The intensity of our embrace grew with each passing moment, and soon we were both lost in the moment, completely consumed by our desire for each other.

The night was a canvas for our passion, as our bodies merged in an embrace that was both tender and intense. Our fingers traced every contour, our lips sought out every inch, and our hearts beat as one, fueling our fervour. Each passing moment was a discovery, each sensation more exhilarating than the last.

I felt my inner wolf stirring more than once, and I could sense my eyes turning into a primal golden hue, indicating that my wolf was eager to come out and play. However, I managed to control myself and kept him at bay. Once we were done, she fell asleep.

I left some money on the side table for her as payment for her services. Before leaving, I took one last look at her and then made my way back to Dreador.
