Future of the thunder pack

Chapter 4 Future of the Thunder Pack

Todd's POV:

Peering through the café's VIP suite one-way glass, I watched everything happening outside with a calm, distant look.

Bella-the human woman who somehow stirred something new inside me and my wolf-found herself stuck in a painfully awkward blind date. The guy, Marcus Smith, was rude and clueless, dripping with arrogance and shallowness.

When he suddenly splashed water on her, my wolf growled fiercely, claws scraping the floor like it wanted to jump out and tear that idiot apart.

Calm down," I told myself and my wolf. She wasn't mine- not yet. I had no right to step into her human affairs.

"Hmph. What a rude jerk." Grandma's voice came from beside me. I hadn't noticed her appear by the window. Her wise, aged eyes narrowed with disgust. "Looks like my arrangements were better. Bella deserves way better than that."

I didn't say anything. Grandma's plans were always a bit of a mystery, even to me.

Before long, Bella stood and left. Watching her walk away. shoulders a bit drooped, I felt a strange flicker inside- maybe sympathy? Or pain? It was unfamiliar but felt real

Then, the next scene played out. Will-one of my most trusted Betas-showed up, exactly as Grandma had planned And, sure enough, trouble quickly followed. Some low-lite humans tried a cheap fake accident scam.

"Grandma, you sent Will here too?" I asked.

"Of course." She nodded, eyes glued to Bella. "I want to test if the kindness and bravery that young lady showed me were real or just a passing thing."

Bella didn't hesitate. She faced those jerks head-on, eyes cold and fearless. A lone human woman standing firm against those threats without blinking?

Then, she kicked one of the scammers hard in the leg, and he jumped up, screaming like a baby. The kick was fast, precise, and a little brutal.

My wolf growled with approval.

"See that, Todd?" Grandma's voice was full of satisfaction. "She's kind but also brave and sharp. She caught their trick immediately. And when danger showed up, she stood her ground."

I watched as she shut the scammers down with barely a word, making them scatter like frightened rats. I was

impressed. Bella was different from some clingy Omegas and unsure Betas. She had guts.

Will stepped forward to thank her, as Grandma had

arranged. With his looks and charm, few women would turn him down.

But Bella didn't even look twice. She just turned and walked away, not showing the slightest interest in his fancy car or Will himself

"She's not blinded by money and not fooled by looks." Grandma chuckled softly. "Do you get it now, Todd? This human lady might be more fit to be Luna of the Thunder Pack than you ever imagined."

My wolf stirred at that thought, fired up by the idea of claiming this strange, amazing woman.

But I forced myself to stay realistic. She was human, and I was a werewolf Alpha. There was a huge gap between us- race, strength, lifestyle.

"She's interesting," I finally admitted. "But Grandma, she's

human."

"Yes, human. But her spirit? It shines brighter than most," Grandma said, turning to look at me. Her old but sharp gaze held me in place. "Todd, remember this. Real Alpha strength isn't just about breaking things. It's about protecting and accepting. The Moon Goddess doesn't make mistakes. Your heart and your wolf have already made a choice, right?"

Deep inside, my wolf gave a low, steady growl.

Yes. My wolf had chosen her from the moment she stepped into my world and the instant her scent struck me like lightning

But the real question was if I was ready to accept a human as my mate? This wasn't only about me. It was about the whole future of the Thunder Pack
