The Unlucky Alpha

It's a fresh day conveying new hopes and aspirations. It's barely 8 am, yet the weather condition was already heated despite the turbulent heavy downpour that occurred the previous day.

Just like his usual morning routine, Alpha Lottana was seated happily in his beautiful garden, admiring his beautiful edifice and reminiscing his journey so far since becoming the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack.

The Blood Pack is a magnificent and attractive edification, constructed with fortified gigantic walls that usually prevent opposition wolves from trooping into the royal Castle unannounced.

While Alpha Lottana was seated in his beautiful garden, meditating and taking pleasure, a strange person found her way to the Alpha's quarters without his knowledge. No one saw her walk inside despite the massive male wolves safeguarding the castle walls. It was as though she appeared with the aid of a whirlwind. Channeling her gaze at the environment, she sniffed the atmosphere and shook her head in pity. “Hmm! This isn't nice.

Drastic attention needs to be taken. I smell danger. The real danger that may wreck the Alpha's lineage lurks around,"

"Halt! Where are you going? I need you to run an errand for me."

She points at a staff passing by.

"No, I'm not free. I'm so starving right now. I just need to get something to eat before I perish. starved me to sleep last night," the young girl suspected to be Alpha Lottana's staff responded.

"Your food? That can wait. You can do that some other time. But right now, I need to speak with the Alpha. It's an emergency. I bring him a message that's more important than feeding your empty stomach. Now depart immediately without hesitation before I lose it completely," Arinidia, the moon guardian ordered but the staff refused and insisted on being fed before running errands for the moon guardian even when Alpha Lottana was involved.

"You must be a fool to think I'll ever let you go. How dare you defile my orders? Go call the Alpha this moment if you don't wanna see the other side of me. I can be very dangerous. I'll ensure the Alpha punishes you severely for disobeying me. The choice is yours to make. I'm not gonna put the pressure on you. I'm not asking you, this is me telling you to do this and you're gonna obey me," she threatened the chef, sending shivers down her spine. This time, the domestic staff obeyed and immediately stormed to the garden to fetch the Alpha.

"Are you blind or has the moon goddess seized your sight? Can't you see I'm observing my quiet time? How dare you interrupt my hour? Have you suddenly lost respect for the Alpha's privacy? Now I get it. You're tired of your duty. You want a dismissal?" Alpha Lottana yelled at his staff after hearing that his attention was needed at the pack.

"I apologize for invading your privacy. It wasn't intentional. But the moon guardian sounded so urgent. She wouldn't leave until you showed up. You may wanna consider her request, my Alpha."

"The moon guardian? What does she want at this hour? Isn't it too early to visit? Hmm! You go tell the moon guardian I'll be there shortly. You can leave," Lottana instructed.

But she demands to see you immediately, my Alpha,"

"One more word from you and that's the end. I'll dismiss you without pay. That's not all. I'll ensure no one associates with you in this pack. Now get the fuck out of here," Lottana threatened him. Immediately, she took to her heels and dashed back to the moon guardian.

"I just spoke with the Alpha. He'll join you shortly. Your message was delivered. Can I leave now?"

"Hmm" nodding her head in affirmation, the moon guardian replied.

"What a pleasant surprise. I wasn't expecting to see you this early.

What is conveyed by the Moon guardian to my pack at this hour? We all know you rarely visit, but when you do, it calls for swift attention. I want to believe this isn't a friendly visit, right? What message does the moon goddess have for me this time,” walking majestically to his sacred throne and accompanied by his BETA, Durella, Alpha Lottana tossed the question at Arindia, the moon guardian. He can't seem to recall the last time she visited the pack, let alone at this hour. His instincts tell him there is a situation on the ground that requires drastic attention, but he just can't decipher. Hopefully, the moon guardian would spill.

Good to see you again, Alpha Lottana. You barely even visit my cave. You may not be far from the truth, Alpha. Wait for it! You have plenty of time to ask questions. Smart of you to know I rarely visit, but when I do, then it calls for urgent attention. I doubt you're ready for what's coming your way.”

"Coming my way? You're making me feel scared. I can't seem to comprehend what you're talking about. Please be seated, let's dwell on this extensively. What do you care for? I could ask my staff to get you something. I'm completely lost here. What are you talking about? A little explanation would do.” Lottana was puzzled. He strives to discern the aura hovering around him, but he just can't wrap his head around it.

"So generous of you Alpha. I'm indeed honored by your act of generosity. But I prefer to stand and divulge the divine message sent by Selene, the moon goddess. I didn't come here to be entertained like a special guest. I was just sent by the moon goddess to deliver an important message. Once that is accomplished, I'll leave.” Politely, she refused. Narrowing her gaze into his blue eyes, she frowned and looked away.

Hmm! Quite impressive for a wordsmith.

Your words convey profound utterances that could only be understood by the wise. I'm afraid I cannot understand the in-depth meaning. I am not loving the suspense, either. Please speak and quit playing with my emotions,” Lottana sparked outrageously. He doesn't appreciate being kept in suspense for too long. Especially in a situation like this involving the moon goddess.

From the tone of her expression, Lottana could discern an impending storm lurking in his pack. But whatever that is, he's willing to find out.

Now you're beginning to act like your omegas; so weak and timid. You're the Alpha of the Blood pack. You're the strongest of them all. Why shiver? Don't be scared. Be courageous and patient, my Alpha. When it comes to issues of the supernatural, absolute patience is required to aid easy comprehension,” Arindia made an upraised hand to calm Lottana and allay his fears.
