The Alpha Don New Luna

Chapter 15 shifting

Cheyenne’s P.O.V

  Mercury and I hugged each other like we never wanted to let go, but Sheba was jumping around in my head, which was a really weird feeling.

  “Mate, mate, he's our mate.” Sheba said and I started laughing which made Mercury look at me worried.

  “Sheba is jumping around in my head, singing mate mate he's our mate.” I said and Mercury nodded.

  “Asher is doing the same thing, but we will see in a few days, we need to get you prepared.” Mercury replied, just then Saturn walked back inside, 

  "I agree, so what do you think we should do.” Saturn asked, looking at both of us. 

  “Well, Sheba was saying that she wants me to give her control when this shift thing happens, she will take control and when it's done, I'll have control back. I'm going to be honest, I'm terrified, I don't know what's going to happen with this and I don't know what's going to happen to me.” I said, they both nodded and Mercury held me closer.

  “Well, when it's your time to shift you're going to feel pain, pain that is so bad that you're going to want to pass out. Your bones will break and heal in different directions, your body will grow fur and your face will grow. When it's all over you will be a wolf, you will growl and your eyes will go dark. Goddess help the poor soul that you're mad at, you will be ready to rip them apart, but….yes there's a but….you must keep control in your first few weeks or you will go rogue.” Saturn said, explaining the shifting thingy and it sounded really scary and horrible.

  “Okay, what's a rogue? And don't you mean God, you said Goddess?” I asked, still trying to learn things.

  “No, I meant Goddess, the Moon Goddess to be exact. God is over humans, but the Moon Goddess is over werewolves, she is in charge of everything. A rogue is a wolf that decides to go on their own. They don't take baths, they kill to feed and try to take over other packs, they smell like rotten eggs and death. They find other rogue’s and make packs out of them, they try to kill other packs, so that they can take over their territory. They will try to kill the Luna so the Alpha will become weak. They kill whoever they decide to kill and they don't show any mercy.” Mercury said and I shuddered to think of them.

  “I would rather not become a rogue, they sound horrible. Is there anything else I need to know?” I asked, looking at Mercury and resting my head on his chest.

  “When you do finally shift, we will be able to tell if you're going to be a Luna Alpha, fighter, warrior or worker, just by the colour of your fur and how big you are.” Mercury said and just then Sheba spoke up.

  “We are going to be the baddest b***h ever, that's what we’re going to be.” Sheba said, making me smile when I heard her. I was still a bit worried about the shift and exactly how much it was going to hurt, but as long as I had Mercury and Saturn with me then I'm sure I would be alright, especially with Sheba looking out for me.

  Over the next three days I worked out in the gym even more, with Mercury and Trevor being my personal trainers, they were pushing me to my limit and over, it was really tiring and I was exhausted. Saturn was hurrying around and trying to get everything prepared for my first shift and she also talked me through everything I was going to feel and how to cope with it, but she also said that because I used to be human I could react differently. I was grateful for everyone's help, but I was also tired and the only thing I wanted to do was sleep. I went up to my room and laid down on my bed, closing my eyes for a few minutes and trying to get to sleep, when suddenly my whole body felt like it was on fire.

  “AHHHHHHHH!!!” I screamed out, when an intense pain shot through my whole body.

  Mercury's P.O.V

  It was 12:02 and now Cheyenne’s birthday. I heard Cheyenne screaming and I ran upstairs to her room as fast as I could, this was it, she was shifting for the first time. I kicked the door off its hinges and ran into the room, just as Cheyenne fell from the bed and on the floor, writhing in pain and clutching her stomach.

  “Trevor, Saturn, it's happening, Cheyenne is shifting. Get up here now.” I said, mind-linking them and ran over to Cheyenne.

  “IT HURTS! IT HURTS! MAKE IT STOP!!” Cheyenne screamed out again, but I couldn't make it stop.

  “Cheyenne, baby, I know it hurts, but take a deep breath and let Sheba take control, baby.” I said, picking her up as gently as I could and running out of her room. I passed Trevor and Saturn on the stairs and they quickly turned around following me. I ran all the way outside and placed Cheyenne down on the grass, hoping the cold from it would help cool her down a little and kneeled down beside her.

  “Cheyenne, you're outside now honey, try and let Sheba take over, honey.” I said, as she started sweating even more and gasping for air.

  Cheyenne’s P.O.V

  I was trying to let Sheba take control, but I was in too much pain. Mercury carried me outside and the coldness of the grass helped some with the fire burning through me, but the pain was too much and they were right. I felt like I was going to pass out. Mercury was talking to me and i was trying to listen and hear what he was saying, but the ringing in my ears was intense.

  “Cheyenne, let me take control. Let go of everything and I'll do the rest.” Sheba said and I did as she asked, it was hard at first as the pain seemed to come wave after wave, but as soon as I could I let go and Sheba took over. I felt like I was sitting in the back seat of my mind, the pain was still there and I could feel everything, but it was bearable now and when I looked around, everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. I felt my face elongate and change, my legs break and dislocate, shifting into their new place, my spine felt like it was twisting and snapping, fur started to sprout all over my body and when I looked down I was standing on four paws instead of two legs. Sheba seemed to give control back to me and I was yet again up front, but when I looked around everyone was staring at me with their mouths hanging wide open. The whole pack seemed to be here and I was starting to worry that something was wrong. Mercury came closer to me and ran his fingers through my fur.

  “Cheyenne, you are beautiful. You are a pure black wolf, you are an Alpha my Queen. Do you know how to change back?” Mercury asked and he had to be kidding right, change back, already I only just did this part, was he trying to kill me? I shook my head, well, my wolf shook its head.

  “Think about your human form, your skin colour, standing on two legs instead of four and the colour of your hair and eyes.” Mercury said and I started thinking about my human form and what I looked like. A few minutes went by and this was a lot less painful than i thought it was going to be. I was back in my human form, but the one thing that every single fucker here had forgotten to mention was that I was going to be naked when I shifted back. Mercury quickly passed me one of his shirts and I hurried to put it on and cover myself up.

  “Welcome my Alpha Queen to our pack life, our Mafia life.” Mercury said and everyone bowed down to me. Mercury pulled me into his side and held me close, kissing me softly.

  “My boss Queen.” Mercury whispered, smiling at me.

  “You bet your ass I am.” I replied, smiling and gently kissing him.

  Unknown P.O.V

  I was sitting on the bank in a fat bush, watching her shift into an Alpha wolf. How the hell am I going to get to her now? 

  “She's an Alpha now and from what I hear she's a bad ass and doesn't take s**t from anyone, not even the Mob boss. I'll just have to slit her throat, I'll get her and he will be mine.” I said, my voice filled with nothing but hate and venom for the b***h.

  Rogue’s P.O.V

  I watched as my mistress watched the pack, she desperately wanted to get to her, but even I don't think she will be able to. Hell I don’t even think she will stand a hope in hell against the new Luna, especially after The Alpha Don himself told her to stay away from the club, but something tells me that this is not the end of it. Why can't my mistress see that the Alpha Don doesn't want her, he doesn't want anything to do with her? What makes her think that once she has gotten rid of his Luna that he will welcome her with open arms? She is living in a fantasy world, but hey it's her funeral.

  Cheyenne’s P.O.V

  I looked up at Mercury and smirked at him, it seemed like all the touching was making it hard for me not to jump his bones right here and now, but I had to restrain myself. I needed to stand tall and not let people think that I am weak, when I'm not. Saturn and Mercury both said that once I had shifted they would know what I am in the pack and well, now that I have shifted they told me I'm a Luna, but what does that mean? What is my job here? What the hell is a Luna? What does a Luna do? Mercury took me by the hand and led me back into the house and I went straight to my room. I quickly got dressed, came back out and went back downstairs to meet the others who were waiting for me in the kitchen.

  “I'm sure you have questions.” Mercury said, as I jumped up and sat on a bar stool.

  “Yes, I do. What's a Luna and what is her job as a Luna?” I asked, just as Saturn came and sat next to me, while Trevor and Cody were leaning against the counter.

  “A Luna helps protect the pack, to love all, to help with the sick and take care of the pack, but also fights beside her mate. Although many Luna's decide not to fight, not to train and not learn the pack business, they tend to let the men do all the work, so they stay at home, have Luna meetings and decide which fighter will go into fighting and so on. The pack and Alpha’s tend to have to protect them because they do not know how to fight, so we have to hide them when the pack goes to war. Now don't get me wrong there are Luna's that are fighters, they fight in wars and beside their mates, they do take care of the pack and also make the hard decisions if I can't make them or am unable to decide. They will come face to face with the Luna's that do fight, will train hard and not take any bull s**t, there's not many of them at all, so when they find that Luna, they hurry and make it known to the others. So they can get together and train up, be prepared for anything.” Mercury said and I thought about it for a moment. I hope he didn't want me to just sit at home and knit because that is so not my style and never going to happen.

  "And what kind of Luna do you think I am?” I asked, putting him on the spot. Mercury thought for a moment, scratching his chin and I knew he was playing me up because he gave me that mischievous grin he has.

  “You are the boss woman, the head Don’s Luna, meaning you're a badass b***h that won't take any s**t from anyone. Everyone is going to love you, others will fear you and some might even s**t their pants because of you. There are some that might just run away from you, but you will have to watch your back though. Some might seem like your friend, but they will betray you in a heartbeat, so you have to watch what you say because they will try and get information out of you that you don't need to give them.” Mercury said, making me feel better at first and then nervous at the end, but I wasn't going to show it. I nodded taking in all the information and then Trevor stood up straight from the counter and walked over to the island I was sitting at.

  “But you are a pure black wolf, meaning that you're also an Alpha wolf. You and Mercury will rule together over the pack and you will be the most powerful couple ever, but that will mean a lot of trouble and problems. A lot of she-wolves are going to try and take your spot, the same goes with other Alpha’s, they are going to try and take Mercury’s spot, but I think you will both be strong enough to overcome this.” Trevor said, I nodded, but Mercury growled when Trevor said about the other Alpha’s wanting to take his spot and be with me.

  “I think I'm going to head upstairs and get some sleep.” I said, yawning. I walked over to Mercury and kissed his cheek, giving him a private message.

  Mercury’s P.O.V

  “Are you coming, I want you beside me.” Cheyenne said, mind-linking me and I nodded.

  “I think it's a good idea, it's been stressful for us all, so everyone should get some sleep. Goodnight everyone.” I said and caught up with her at the bottom of the stairs. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and we walked upstairs to her room.

  “When will you move into my room? There's a lot more room.” I said, trying to bring the subject up again. I opened the door and she went straight to the bathroom.

  “How about this, I move half of my stuff into your room and I stay with you a few days in there, if I like it then we can move the rest of my stuff in.” Cheyenne replied, making me chuckle. I started to get undressed as Cheyenne came out of the bathroom, drying her face.

  “Do I have a choice?” I asked and she shook her head no.

  “Alright it's a deal, we’ll start tomorrow.” I replied and she yawned once more and got into bed. I got in bed next to her and she turned on her side, falling straight to sleep. I pulled her closer to me and watched her sleep for a few minutes before deciding to link the mystery wolf that had been there tonight.

  “I know you're out there watching us and if I was you b***h I wouldn't try anything, I smelled you a mile away, try taking a bath.” I said, mind-linking the stupid b***h, whoever she was and then ended the link.
