Chapter One: 5 Years Later
~Luna~
I sat in my seat, staring out the window. I watched as the trees flew past when I heard a giggle and turned around. Lucas, who was now 15, sat in the middle seat with two 4 years olds in his lap as he talked with them playfully telling jokes and funny stories. The twins, who were now 11, sat on either side of him. Steal had his headphones on as he looked out the window. Meanwhile Silver read through a book quietly. The toddlers sitting on Lucas's lap were both boy's. One had chocolate brown hair and chestnut brown eyes. He had his fathers hair and his mother's eyes. I found it cute. Speaking of his mother, Luka drove down the rode with the radio playing quietly. Every now and again he'd glance at the back through the rearview mirror to smile at his little brother getting along with his son and mine. My own 4 year old sat on Lucas's other knee with raven black that I noted came from his father since mine was more of a pitch black and his eyes were different colors. His right eye was the same emerald green as his fathers, but his left was my same cyan. It even glowed like mine do.
I smiled at the scene in front of my eyes. I loved my little Kade. I honestly don't even know why I named him that. For the longest time I couldn't think of any baby names, but when I held Kade in my arms I suddenly felt the need to name him that.
It would be both boy's birthdays soon. In about nine months. They were born on the same day at the same time. Me and Luka may not be related and neither are the toddlers fathers, but we always called them our 'twins of chance'. Me and Luka are like brother and sister so Kade & Clayton getting along and considering each other brothers was a dream come true for us.
It helped a lot that Lucas was such a great uncle to both of them. The real twins were more like annoyed older siblings though. Well, mostly Steal. He didn't have much patience, but Silver absolutely adored them and self proclaimed herself as their big sissy.
I was brought out of my thoughts when Luka tapped my shoulder. I turned and gave him a curious look. "Look at the sign. I didn't even realise we were headed this direction." He said and I looked to the sign that welcomed us to a familiar town. It'd been 5 years since we'd been here. The place we met our sons fathers.
The town that housed the Silver Moon Pack.
I sighed. "Well... We do need to by some more food.... And gas..... And at least we know the pack is friendly so long as we mean no harm. Besides. The blue moon isn't for another week!" I waved it off, trying to stay relaxed.
My heart jumped when Luka shot me a look. "They deserve to know Luna." He said sternly. He rarely called me by my name.
"They probably already found their mates and settled down Luka. I wouldn't want to disturb that!"
"Kade and Clayton are their first born sons and rightful theirs to their titles Luna. We can't just ignore that."
"Wh-what if I want to?! Besides! Not all packs go with the first born! It depends on circumstances!"
"LUNA."
I sighed in defeat. "Fine, but only if we actually run into them."
"Fair enough."
~Kale~
I woke up to the feeling of cold water in my face. "WHAT THE HELL?!" I growled out and glared to the perpetrator. My father stood there with his arms crossed and an empty glass on my nightstand next to him. I looked to him exasperated and bewildered. "Dad?! What was that for?!" I asked in shock and confusion.
He simply shook his head. "Easy. You turn 20 next week." He answered as if it were obvious.
I sat there with my mouth a gap. "What does that have to do with anything?" I asked as I used my blanket to dry my face.
"Easy. As per tradition you'll become Alpha when you turn 20, but you still haven't found a mate to produce an heir with! I had found your mother by time I was 15!" He exclaimed.
"Dad... We can't even sense our mates til we're 18." I stated bluntly.
"EXACTLY! I KNEW HER BEFORE I EVEN KNEW WE WERE MATES!" He shouted.
"Some wolves just don't finds their mates Dad." I stated. A bit deflated. I actually wanted a mate, but she wasn't in the pack or any packs near by. Not even a human from town.
"Don't scare me like that boy! I want to see you happily married with an heir either here or on the way before I die..... and your mom wants to be a grandma already." He trailed off as he pinched his nose.
I just sighed and stood up. "Trust me, I want me to have a mate just as much as you do. I just... Can't seem to find her." I said a little depressed now. I wondered why she never showed up. Could she have died at a young age? It's not unheard of for that to be a reason for not finding ones mate. I didn't even want to think about it though. The thought scared me.
I simply ushered him out before he could say any thing else though.
Once I was dressed I grabbed my keys and walked out side. Ash and Allison were sitting on the porch making out. It looks like my dad was right to welcome Ash into the pack all those years ago. Seeing as he turned out to be Allison's mate and all. I was glad. Really. I'm happy for them, but it pained me to see them like that because it made me long for my mate even more. I sighed and left my Gamma's be before walking off. Gabriel had also found his mate. She was a warrior born, perfect for the Delta.
After all. The Alpha may lead, but he has help in the form of the Beta, his second in command, the godfather to his pups, and his next in line should the ruling Alpha family die out. The Gamma is in charge of hunting, watching over pack pups in time of need, and acts as a voice of guidance and wisdom. The Delta trains the troupes and acts as their general.
With those three and their mates by my side as well as my own one day hopefully, I can rule this pack into greatness and peace.
I ended up picking up Dalton. My dear Beta who is also mateless. So long as neither of us finds a mate the pack is doomed.
We were going to go into town for pizza when I got a call from Ash.
"Yo. What's with the call?"
"Just wanted to know if you and Dalton want to go on a double date with me and Allison."
"DUDE. What have I told you?! We're not even gay!"
I paused for a minute.
"I'm not at least."
"Haha! I know. Just jooking. In all seriousness. I had entered into this mini competition to win a free meal for me and Ally, but what I didn't realize is it's four meal tickets. I tried talking to Gabriel about it, but he's to busy making an heir if you know what I mean. Either way the tickets expire soon. So? Want a free meal? I kinda gotta use all four at once or it won't count so....."
I pinched the brim of my nose and put my cell on mute. I then looked to Dalton. "Wanna go eat with the lovely Gammas? Free meal." I asked him, adding the free part at the end to entice him more. He thought about it.
"Why in the whole wide world would I want to willingly witness them making out?" He asked and I chuckled.
That was just like Dalton. He was no fan of PDA. Never saw why people could be that 'obsessed' with each other. Ash used to be the same way. Key word is used to be. As in, not any more. Not since finding out Ally is his mate at least.
"Free food! Besides! I can always use an Alpha command if they start going to far." I said in reply. He simply nodded.
I feel bad for Dalton though. For years He thought he was asexual. He never really was attracted to women and didn't even consider the idea he could be into men just because he's a Beta.
That night five years ago changed everything. When that Omega boy showed up. I think his name was Luka? Anyways. Somehow that Omega turned on the boy who couldn't be turned on by the hottest she wolf in all the packs of this region! That was when he had to except that he's gay, but that crushed him worse.
Why? Because homosexual werewolves have an extremely low rate of matting. If they even do find their mate it usually ends in rejection.
Why? Whoever is in charge of deciding who is whose mate has a sick sense of humor because one of them is usually straight or homophobic or worse... Both.
If that's not it then one or both of the two don't make it to adult hood since a lot of packs beat and abuse homosexual wolves and some out right murder them. Other times one is kicked out of their pack and becomes rogue. That's the worse one though.
If your mate becomes a rogue you can feel it. Even if you haven't met them yet. Even if you're not of age yet. You feel it. Your heart and soul tear to shreds as your mate looses all sanity and hope of salvation.
Either way. Because the world can't get over itself and most packs are stuck in the old ways and very homophobic a lot of same sex mates don't get to even meet.
Hence why I worry for him. I really hope he's one of the lucky ones. I hope with all my heart. He's my Beta. The man I call my brother. Blood or not. He's family and he's a member of this pack. We the Silver Moon Pack will never shun a wolf for being who they are. Even if it means same sex relations.
After convincing Dalton to go we got in my car and met them there. It was a nice restaurant. We had a secluded booth where no one else could see us.
Needless to say I had to use an Alpha command more then once.
When we finally got out I suddenly froze as the outside air hit me like a truck. I could smell my mate. She smelled like dew drops in the summer and vanilla. It somehow seemed familiar. I looked to Dalton to see his pupils slitted as his irises darkened. He also smelled his mate. When Ash and Ally saw us they went wide eyed and watched us take off in the same direction before following.
We soon came across and ice cream stand where a 15 year old boy stood with two toddlers. He looked to the younger boys. "What flavors do you want? Uncle Lucas will get them for you. Okay?" He said to them and they beamed up at him.
"Please tell me you two aren't mated to pups!" Ally gasped in horror. I gave her a look.
"No! I smell my mate on those three." I said to her in a huff. I now felt very offended.
"Same." Was all Dalton said as he held the same offended look.
Ash being Ash, he laughed.
When the 15 year old spotted us he smiled. "Kale! Dalton! Ash! Allison! No way!" He said. It was then that I noticed they were lone wolves. He was an Omega and the toddlers were an Alpha and a Beta. We looked to the Omega confused. How did this lone know our names? Most of all what was he doing on our territory?
I stalked over to him. "What are you doing on my territory and how do you know my name?" I asked him and he gasped. "No way man! Did you forget? I'm Lucas! Luka's little brother! As in Luna and Luka?" He explained.
Ash stepped forward. "Your the lone wolf clan we met 5 years ago?" He asked in bewilderment. Lucas just nodded.
Just then a female voice cried out. "Lucas! We're headed out soon!" Cried an 11 year old girl as she ran over. I recognized the healing aura. It was Silver. When she saw me her eyes widened and she bowed. "Kale! So sorry to be trespassing again! We're on our way out now!" She explained.
Just then the Omega Dalton slept with walked over. "What's all the commotion?" He asked then froze when he saw us. When he noticed Dalton though... His own eyes slitted and darkened. No. Way. They're mates?!
Dalton could only reach out and touch his cheek while muttering "MATE" under his breath again and again. Luka smiled and put a hand over his with a smile. All he said was "YOURS" and they suddenly kissed. It was sweet and loving. Like lovers who'd spent decades apart.
Lucas smiled at his older brother in glee. You could tell the brothers were close.
After the kiss they pulled back and smiled at each other. The smile faded from Dalton's lips when the brunette Beta toddler tugged on Luka's pant leg and said: "Mommy who is that and why did you kiss Him?"
I saw a flicker of anger in Dalton's eye before looking between Luka and the child questioningly. Luka simply chuckled and Dalton crossed his arms. "Do you find this funny? I finally find my mate and he got knocked up by another guy?" He asked with anger evident in his voice.
Luka merely shook his head. "No, Dalton. *Sigh* Clayton, this is Dalton. The man I told you about? Remember? And Dalton, this is Clayton.... OUR child." He explained with amusement in his eyes as it clicked in Dalton's head what was happening.
Dalton looked to the boy then to Luka. "He's ours.... As in... I'm the... F-fa-father?" He asked and Luka simply nodded. He scooped up Luka and Clayton both. "MINE." He kept saying over and over again. Luka just laughed a bit as Clayton seemed happy.
I then looked to the other little boy. "Who is this?" I asked as I gave the small boy a smile. He gave me a suspicious glare and hid behind Lucas's leg.
Silver kneeled down to the boy and gave him a reassuring smile. "Don't worry Kade. This is Kale, the man your Mommy and Uncle Luke told you about. You know, the really nice Alpha?" She explained and he suddenly looked to me with hope in his eyes.
"Daddy?"
That one line was all I needed to hear before the world went silent.
Did this kid just call me his father?
I looked to Lucas and Silver as if begging for an explanation.
"Don't you remember what you did with Luna five years ago?" Luka explained and it clicked.
I knocked her up.
She's probably not even my mate. How could I be so stupid?! Mom and Dad are gonna kill me!
My vision was blurry from the shock.
~Luka~
I stared at Alpha Kale with concern as he stood there in shock. Poor Kade looked like he was about to cry, so I pushed myself out of my new Mate's hold and kneeled down then spread my arms while smiling at the toddler. "Come to Uncle Luka. It's alright Kade." I said gently and he ran into my arms. I knew Kale wasn't trying to reject the small boy right now, but to Kade that's how it looked so I comforted him the best I could.
Dalton kneeled down beside me and pet the little Alpha's hair a little as my little Clayton came over and hugged onto Kade. I smiled at the sight. I loved my little Clayton and Kade both. Luna may not be blood, but she's still my sister.
Ash and Allison watched Kale with concern in their eyes. They seemed to not want to take their eyes off him for fear something bad could happen.
That was when Steal walked over. "Hey, Luna said she payed for last night and turned in the keys already. We gotta hit the rode." He said rather indifferently. Then again that's just how the young Warrior is.
I sighed. "Then I need to go get mine and Clayton's bags from the truck." I explained as I stood up. He looked to me with curiosity.
"Luka found his mate! In Dalton! So of course he would want to stay here with him! Not like a Beta can just up and leave his pack after all!" Silver explained to her twin excitedly.
"Oh... Yeah." I heard Lucas say with a depressed tone. This made me look to my little brother. He's 15 now and handsome as ever as he looks to the ground in disappointment.
Dalton is the future Beta of his pack. I can't tare him away from that, but I also can't force the others to stop being lone wolves. Luna doesn't want to join a pack at all. She's Alpha blood so not many packs would except her as a member anyways. Two Alpha families in 1 pack is a big no-no for a very good reason that shouldn't need explanation after all.
There is no way she'd just let Kale take Kade. Father or not. As far as we know the two aren't mates so if Kale were to take him then meet his mate? No telling how she'd react to her mate raising a pup that's not her's.
As for the twins? Luna found them in the forest one day. Their parents just abandoned them there. She took them in after that. Teenager or not at the time she's been a really good mother figure to both of them and they love her as such. They even call Kade their little brother. No way they'd up and and leave her.
As for Lucas? That's up to him. He may be my little brother, but our parents adopted Luna before he was born so he's known her as his big sister his whole life. I may be blood, but that doesn't matter. He loves us both as family so I know neither of us would want to make him choose, but as an Alpha blood Luna can't just stay on another pack's land. She can't live just outside it either. We agreed to stop claiming territory a long time ago. It's to risky. Rogues will be to tempted to fight for it and she has three kids to look after. Plus an Omega if Lucas chooses to go with her. I'd honestly rather him do that. Omega's aren't treated well by packs.
The only reason I have no fear is because I'm mated to Dalton. I'll be the Beta's mate. I don't care if I'll be called the 'Beta Female' even though I'm male. The title alone will keep me safe for the most part and I trust Dalton to make sure of it.
Lucas is another story though. He's not mated to anyone high ranking and he's still only 15.... Not to mention a male Omega. Just 1 male Omega is rare, but 2? End of story. I'd rather him be traveling with a strong Alpha like Luna. He'll be safer that way.
I put a hand on his shoulder. "Go with Luna. You'll be safe that way. We can still call you know." I said to him and he choked back some tears before nodding. He's always been well behaved that way.
Dalton looked concerned, but I could tell he knew why I'd push my brother away like this. It's just safer.
That was when Luna pulled up in the truck. She had her ear buds in as she got out of the drivers seat and bobbed her head to the music. She then looked to us and smiled as she paused her music. "Y'all ready? Let's go-" She stopped and stared at Kale as her eyes slitted. No way!
~Luna~
When I pulled my ear bud out to hear the others that was when I finally sensed it. My mate. I looked strait at him. It was Kale. "MATE!" Cried out my wolf as I felt her jump around in my head, the other two were silent. "We finally found him. We sure are lucky Kade is his." Stated my other wolf. She always had this soft and motherly voice. "KILL!" Screeched my third wolf. She had this dark murderous voice. I nicknamed her Dark Side. She's always had murderous thoughts. I can never shift into her because I don't trust her.
I took a step back though. I could feel Dark Side clawing her way out. She wanted Kale dead. She wanted it now. I could feel her starting to force me to shift. I already knew my eyes were darkening to a deep blue violet.
~Kade~
I watched as Luna slowly backed away with horror in her eyes before taking of running. She ran for the forest as I fell to my knees. She hadn't done it out right, but she ran. She ran away from her mate. Talk about rejection.
I felt a stabbing pain in my chest as my eyes flooded with tears. The next thing I heard was my apparent son, Kade I think his name was, calling out for his Mommy before shifting and running after her.
I felt a hand on my shoulder next. I recognized the touch as Ash. He was being his reassuring self. "Maybe it's not what you think?" He tries to offer up, but I couldn't find it in me to even respond.
Why?
Why would she run from me?
