The Alpha Meeting
Gabriella POV
We just got back to the pack after visiting our grandfather for the last three days. I don’t remember my birth father at all, but I’m so glad we get to spend time with my grandfather Steven. He has told me stories about when Greg was a kid and I’m glad I can still be in his life. I love that he treats my brothers and sister the same way he treats me. We try to visit our grandfather at least once a month for a few days and we always have a great time. We had to leave because my dad has a meeting with other Alpha’s today. Today’s meeting is a little bit different than the others because my dad wants us all to be there. He has never wanted us pups to come for any meeting. I’m sixteen now, Serina and my brothers are thirteen. I assume he wants the other Alphas to see the future leader of the pack, but he doesn’t want me to feel excluded. I’m not a wolf, so Serina will be Alpha, I’m sure. My dad is not se.xist like some Alphas, so I know he wouldn’t pick the boys over Serina. I will help Serina any way I can when she takes her Alpha t!tle.
Serina and I head upstairs to get ready for the meeting. We reach our room and start to get dressed. “Why do you think dad wants us there today” Serina asks me. ” “Honestly, I don’t know, but I’m sure he wants them to know the future Alpha.” “I can’t imagine anyone but dad as Alpha.” “Everyone respects and loves him as Alpha” Serina says. I smile at her “I’m sure the new Alpha will be even better and dad will always be here to support you and so will I.” Her face falls at me saying about her being Alpha. I’ll talk to her later. I don’t want her to worry about the t!tle right now. She still has at least five years before she takes the t!tle. I can see she wants to say something but we need to get back down before mom comes looking for us. “Let’s get done so we can get this over with.” “We can talk about the Alpha thing more later.” Serina walks over to her closet and puts on a blue sundress. I finish putting on my sandals that I decided to wear with my jeans and peach blouse. I’ve definitely grown into a woman’s body. I feel
like I woke up one morning and boys started to notice me. I’m not built like most wolves. I’m not fat, but I’m curvy. I work out and train, but I don’t mind my curves. Once we are both dressed, we head downstairs and I make one more attempt to get us out of the meeting. “Mom, do we really need to go to this meeting,” I ask hoping she’ll give in and let us off the hook. Before she can answer, my dad does.
“You are the future Alpha of the pack and I want them to meet you and your siblings today.” I’m sure there is shock written all over my face because I couldn’t have heard him correctly. I look over at my mother and she has the same look as me. My father starts to laugh and I’m hoping he was joking. “Why do you both look like this is news to you?” “Gabby is my oldest child and the t!tle is her right as the oldest.” I of course, know that I’m not my father’s child by blood, but he is my father in every way that matters. He has never made me feel like I’m different or less than my siblings. In fact, he is a better father than most blood fathers are to their children. I don’t expect him to put the pack at risk by putting a human in charge to prove that he believes I’m his daughter. My father walks toward the stairs and we all follow behind him. My brothers could care less what’s happening and sit away from the conversation once we reach the office. Serina and I sit in the chairs in front of the desk. “Dad, you can’t be serious”, I say.
Archer POV
“I most certainly am serious.” “I love you dad and I know how much you love me but I am not a wolf.” “Your mother isn’t a wolf either, but she is the best Luna I could have ever asked for.” “I agree dad but being a Luna is totally different than trying to be an Alpha over this pack.” “Serina should be Alpha when she is old enough, not me.” “She is a wolf and your blood” I stop her immediately with a growl that is not only mine but Brutus’s too. “Don’t you dare say you are not my daughter in anyway.” I go around the desk and bend down in front of Gabby.” “Blood does not make you my daughter the love I have for you in my heart does.” “You are the next Alpha of this pack and anyone that doesn’t like it can leave or go to hell.” She wraps her hands around my neck and I hate that she thought she wasn’t enough to be this pack’s Alpha. I look back and Sabrina has tears in her eyes. I walk over and hug my
mate before I sit down in my chair. “Dad, can I ask for one thing if you really want me to be Alpha?” “Of course, you can.” “I would like for Serina and I to share the Alpha t!tle and duties.” I smile, “nothing would make me happier than to have you all be part of running this pack.” “I think that is a brilliant idea, your attached at the h!p anyway.” I smile at Serina and she runs over k!ssing my cheek before she runs back hugging her sister. I have truly been blessed with my children and mate. “Boys, what do you think about the plan for the pack when you are all grown up?” “About what plan, dad” they ask. Clearly, they weren’t paying attention to our conversation. I laugh “your sisters taking over together as Alphas when I retire.” “Sounds good, we want to be warriors and kick some b.utt.” We all burst out laughing. I get a link from Levi “I have shown the Alpha’s to the conference room.” “Thank you, we are on our way down.”
Gabriella POV
I’m still in shock that my father wants me to be Alpha. Based on my mother’s expression, she wasn’t expecting him to make me future Alpha either. My father really is an amazing man, mate, and father. I pray that if I’m blessed with a mate, he loves me like my father loves my mother and us. There’s no guarantee I’ll have a mate, since I’m not a wolf, which I hate. I don’t hate being a human just that I might not get a mate. I would prefer the goddess pick someone who will know I’m the one instantly. Then again, maybe a wolf will hate the thought of being mated to a human. Not every wolf is like my father. I will not beg any man to love me, so I hope he is smart enough to respect the bond. I just hope my father will not regret this decision. I will do everything in my power to be a great Alpha and make my parents proud. I’m glad that Serina and I will share the t!tle. My father brings me out of my thoughts “Gabby, I want you to know that I don’t make this decision lightly.” “If I felt that you were not capable, whether human or wolf, I would not make you Alpha.” I smile and nod, holding back tears of grat!tude. He comes around hugging me again. He whispers in my ear “never doubt yourself, Alpha.” When he pulls back, he smiles and winks at me. “Alright, it’s time to go meet with our guests.” We follow my father and wait in the back of the room while he greets our visitors.
The last Alpha to arrive isn’t alone. I assume it’s his son and the future Alpha of his pack that rush by us to greet my father. They all take their seats and I can feel the b.utterflies in my stomach about my father’s introduction of us and the announcement. “Thank you all for coming today so we can talk about rogues and alliances.” “Before we start, I would like to introduce you to my mate and the future Alphas of our pack. We walk to the front of the room and stand next to my father. I’m sure these men hear Alphas and think my twin brothers will be announced. “This is my Luna, Sabrina, and our pups.” “Our twin boys, Johnathon and James” he points at my brothers. “The future Alpha’s of the Scarlett Howl pack, Gabriella and Serina Lyons” he points at us. I smile before I see Alpha Raymond’s face change to one of disgust. “It’s bad enough you took a pathetic human as a Luna, but you plan on putting a human in charge of a wolf pack.” Now that pisses me off, him calling my mother a pathetic human. I’m just about to say something to the a**hat when my father does. “I believe it’s time for you to leave Raymond, as you are no longer welcome in our pack.” This is exactly what I was worried about for my father. “That’s fine, I want no alliance with such a pathetic pack.” “You are no Alpha” he says as they both rush from the room. I try to keep my face expressionless even though I’m both hurt and angry with that Alpha.
My father turns to the other Alphas. “If any of you feel the same way, you can also leave.” None of the Alphas move from their seats. Once my father has calmed down, they begin their meeting. Serina and I stay to listen while my brothers run like their a**es are on fire when my mother tells them they can leave. We formed three new alliances and strengthened the already existing ones today. After all the Alphas leave, it’s just the three of us in the conference room. “Dad, I don’t care what that ignorant Alpha said about me being a pathetic human.” “I think he is a pathetic excuse for an Alpha.” My father chuckles “I think your absolutely right.” “I have no intention of letting someone else’s opinion change who I am supposed to become.” “Spoken like a true Alpha.”
Lake POV
After I leave my father’s office, I head downstairs. I’m ready to go outside when I hear a voice I hate. “Lake where are you going?” “I don’t answer to you Jessica.” I don’t even give her a chance to say another word before I head outside. I take off on a run. I can’t wait for my first shift. Two years and I’ll have my wolf. When my father brought that b**ch home I prayed he wouldn’t mark her, but he did. She isn’t half the Luna my mother was. Everyone hates her and she treats the lower-ranked wolves like dirt. That’s why we don’t get along because unlike my father, I won’t allow it. My father was never warm or kind, but after my mother died, he became even more of a ba**ard. Nothing I ever do is good enough for him. He wants me to be as cold as he is. He even suggested I take a chosen mate to avoid the pain that comes from losing a fated mate. When I reach the edge of the territory, I sit on a rock that I have come to when I need to think.
I was twelve when my mother died. She always talked about how wonderful it would be when I found my mate. What a blessing the goddess given mates are to a wolf. A part of me still hopes that happens, but a part of me hopes I never find her. If I know my father, he will make us both miserable, so he gets his way. After about thirty minutes, I run back toward the pack house. I walk in and pray I can make it to my room without seeing my father or Jessica. Of course, I’m not that lucky. “Lake where were you” she asks. “Why do you care Jessica?” “Of course, I care you’re my son.” “I am not your son, you are my father’s mate.” “Don’t call me your son.” She rolls her eyes. “What happened at your meeting with the Alphas?” That’s why she is talking to me, she wants information. I knew she wanted something. “If you want to know what happened you should ask my father” I say as I push past her heading upstairs to my room.
Raymond POV Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
I’m in my office and I just finished making several phone calls to surrounding Alphas that were not at the meeting today. None of these cowards want to go against Archer Lyons. They act like he is some kind of king. I may have to be patient, but if pack wolves won’t go against him, then I will find others that will. Money can buy a lot of willing super naturals. My door opens and Jessica barges in. “What
have I told you about coming into my office without knocking?” “I’m the Luna, Raymond, I can go where I please.” I growl hating that I mated this b**ch. She was a good bed warmer after Marion died, but that should have been what I kept her as. “Did you hear me, Raymond?” “No, I didn’t Jessie.” Her face contorts to one of anger. “Do not call me that.” “Brian is the only one that calls me that.” “I’ll call you whatever I like Jessie.” She smiles “how did your meeting go today with Archer?”
“All the sudden, you’re interested in pack business.” “No, I’m just interested in Archer Lyons.” I growl “you will not disrespect me you b**ch.” “Calm down Raymond I meant because he is mated to a human and I know how you feel about them.” “How do you know about Archer’s mate.” “I traveled to that pack with Brian to find my fated mate many years ago and he ended up being a pathetic warrior.” I laugh “I wish I could have seen your face when you found that out.” She ignores me and keeps talking. “I met his pathetic human mate that day.” “Not only is he mated to a human but he intends to name a pathetic human as an Alpha of his pack when he steps down.” “How can that be allowed to happen?” “No Alpha’s want to go against Archer including your p**sy of a brother.” “Unfortunately, Brian and I don’t see eye to eye on many things.” “Look at the Luna he took that had no rank.” “Well, I will not stand by and allow a human to run a wolf pack as long as there is air in my lungs.” “What do you plan to do?” “That is none of your concern so just go back to whatever it is that you do to occupy your time.” “That’s fine Raymond but I would gladly help to get rid of the humans.” “If you think that Archer Lyons would look twice at you Jessie your delusional.” “Are you jealous Raymond?” “No, I just know you are an opportunist b**ch Jessie.” She gets up and leaves my office without another word.
