The Alpha and the Fairy ( Black Moon Pack Book 1)

Hidden within the mountains was the territory of the Black Moon Pack. Alpha Alec Chase had taken over the position from his father three years ago on his 21st birthday three years after his first shift on his 18th birthday. The territory also held a magical shifter high school where werewolves along with other magical creatures learned to not only harness their powers but about the other species. Alec had graduated from the school when he was eighteen but his little sister Ashley Chase was a few years younger and still attended. Today was the first day of the new semester. All of the shifters would be returning to campus. Dragons, Witches, witches, Sirens, Werewolves, Bears and Fairies alike would swarm to the Black Moon territory to attend the prestigious school. Not everyone originally came from the black moon. The dragons and the Wiccans came from the eastern side of the territory. It was normally hotter than the rest of the areas in the realm. The sirens came from the watery wetlands of the western part of the realm. The wolves and bears came from the central area in the mountains where the pack was located. Finally, the fairies came from all over. There were earth fairies from the south end, fire fairies from the east, water fairies from the west and finally the winter fairies from the most north of the realm where the land was covered in snow and ice. When Alec's father stepped down as Alpha of the Black Moon pack, he instructed Alec to take care of the magical school, he gave him speech after speech about the importance of each realm, and most importantly he talked to Alec about finding his mate. When werewolves come of age at eighteen years old and after their completed first shift, they can find their mates. That one person who gave their being purpose. A mate was the most precious gift to the shifter kind. Alec had been hoping to meet his mate when he turned eighteen, but now he is twenty-three and still single. He was frustrated that he was leading his pack without his Luna but he knew that he would eventually find her. "Come on Alec, come back to bed" Jackie whined. He had a moment of weakness over the summer and took up a s****l relationship with the pack slut Jackie. "Jackie, why are you still here?" Alec coldly asked. Their relationship was purely s****l, at least to him. Jackie was delusional and thought she was going to be Alec's chosen mate and Black Moon's Luna. "Why wouldn't I be?" Jackie sweetly replied. "Get dressed and get out!" Alec commanded in his alpha tone. He threw her clothes at her, and she had no choice but to comply, werewolves could not disobey a direct order from their Alpha. Jackie stiffened at the command, but quickly got dressed and as she headed to the door of Alec's master bedroom. But stopped when she heard the soft knock on the door. "Who is it?" Alec bellowed. "Ashley" came a small sweet voice from behind the door. Ashley was Alec's seventeen-year-old little sister. Jackie rolled her eyes dramatically, Alec loved Ashley and Jackie was always jealous of their close relationship. Jackie threw open the door and glared at Ashley who just walked into the room. "Hello Jackie," Ashley said. Jackie rolled her eyes and stomped through the door slamming it behind her. "Why do you still waste your time with Jackie, Al?" Ashley said she was the only one besides his parents and his beta and gamma that called him Al. "I'm bored, and she's easy," he replied nonchalantly. Ashley laughed at her brother's honesty. No one liked Jackie and everyone was thankful that she was not his destined mate. "Ready for school today Ash?" Alec asked, throwing on a plain black V-neck shirt. He still had on his pyjama pants but figured since his sister was in his room he'd be more clothed. "Ya!" she exclaimed "are you still driving me?" she asked. Alec nodded his head "meet me downstairs in fifteen minutes and we'll head out." he said. Ashley hugged her brother and left the room to finish getting ready herself. Once she was out of the room Alec headed into his closet to change. He couldn't very well leave the house looking like he just rolled out of bed. Unfortunately, he didn't have time to shower so he still smelled like Jackie. He made a mental note to break things off with her soon. Picking out his clothes for the day he decided on a pair of dark wash blue jeans, his black V-neck and a pair of timberland boots. He kept his black hair short so it was easy to care. He stood in front of the mirror fixing his hair with some gel. Alec was tall, standing approximately 6 feet 4 inches tall and had dark blue eyes. He was known to be quite classically handsome. She-wolves had been throwing themselves at him for as long as he could remember. Why he chose Jackie was a mystery to his loved ones, but it was because he was lonely. He had been searching for his mate for five years and had yet to find her. Alec did one final check in the mirror before heading down to meet Ashley and drive her to school. He liked to make an appearance throughout the year. A lot of his pack members attended the school, and he wanted to make sure everyone felt welcomed. He had to look his best in case he ran into his mate too. Once he was satisfied with his appearance, he headed out of his room and downstairs to meet his sister and grab a cup of coffee before the drive into town. Ashley already prepared a mug and had it waiting for him as she quickly finished her breakfast. Alec's beta Kenneth or Ken for short was sitting at the kitchen table reading the newspaper. "Morning Al," he said briefly looking up "Anything interesting Ken?" Alec said, pointing to the paper in his hands. Kenneth just shook his head and went back to his reading. Nicholas or Nick burst into the kitchen sweaty and shirtless. He was Alec's gamma. The three had been best friends for as long as they could remember. Their fathers had run this pack before them so it made sense that they were so close. Nicholas grabbed a grey t-shirt from the top of a kitchen chair and threw it on. "Sorry, I just came from the gym. I didn't want to miss saying good luck to our little Ashley" he said, he loved to tease Ashley, she was the only girl in the inner circle none of the ranked members had found their mates yet. "It's the time!" Ashley squeezed, grabbing her backpack and running to the garage where Alec kept his truck. "Were we this excited for school?" Nick asked the group of guys who remained in the kitchen. Both Alec and Kenneth shook their heads and laughed. Alec downed his coffee and headed the same way Ashley went. "I'll be back in a bit, then we can go over the new training strategies and patrol routines," Alec said over his shoulder before making it to the garage. He had taken the day off work to drive his sister to school. Not that he really needed to go every day; he was president and CEO of a contracting firm on top of running a fully fledged pack of over five hundred wolves. Ashley was already buckled up in the front seat. She had her feet up on the dashboard and was playing with her hair. She had the same silky black hair as Alec, but her eyes were grey instead of deep blue. She stood probably five foot five inches tall, normal height for female wolves. Alec got in the driver's seat and swatted at Ashley's legs. She sat up and Alec threw the car in reverse, opening the garage door and backed out. The drive down the mountain was filled with laughter and conversation. They talked about how excited Ashley was to be back for her final year. She was also excited because this year she would ascend and finally be able to shift and find her mate. Unlike her brother, Ashley was a virgin. She was saving herself for the singular person picked out for her by the moon goddess. It took thirty minutes to drive from the packhouse to the school. When they arrived, Alec got out of the car and surveyed the terrain. Werewolves, Witches, witches, Dragons, Werebears, Sirens and Fairies were everywhere he looked. This made Alec extremely proud. More students flocked to the school every year. Even though it was selective, it had a reputation to help any magical creature in need. "See you after school Ash," Alec said as his sister hopped out. She waved to him and ran towards the big wooden doors. Alec didn't hang around too long, he left Nick and Ken at home and the three of them needed to get the routines and schedules in place, especially with school back in session.
