Alpha Lincoln
It had been over a week and had finally got the go ahead to talk to this mysterious woman they call Abby.
I knocked on her door. "It's open." She said as if she knew it was me. Her voice sent shivers down my spine.
As though she held an aura of authority. I could tell the moon goddess had chosen well; she was dominant and everyone should bow down to her, but not one of them had.
I entered the room, closing the door behind me. I looked over at her and she almost took my breath away. She was a picture, medium built, not thin, not too big. Just perfect Luna material.
I couldn't think why that alpha asshole didn't treat her as one. She was simply perfect. Her green eyes shone and sparkled in the morning sun. "When you've stopped eye f*****g me you can tell me who you are."
Shit.
I cleared my throat. "Sorry for the intrusion, Mom, my name is Lincoln. Alpha Lincoln and this is my pack. I hope you are enjoying your stay.."
"Abigail, Abby for short. And yes, I am thank you alpha. I'd like to thank you for letting me and my children stay and for saving me."
"All in a day's work, Abby."
She smiled at me.
"Can you tell me why you were so close to my pack's border?"
"I apologise for that. You see, I had a second chance mate thinking he was better than the first. I agreed to join him and his pack instead of keeping running. I thought he was my escape from the treatury I had left behind. I was wrong. Everything changed after I had our first born. He began treating me like an outsider, not a Luna, just like the pack that had welcomed me warmly with open arms until he turned every single one of them against me. I almost lost my second child to him because he couldn't keep his filthy hands to himself. He agreed to help me bring up the twins, but that all changed once they turned ten. They are now both sixteen. They haven't had it easy."
I nodded.
"My daughter had an argument with her beta that day and I knew then we had to get out of there. We didn't belong there. He had made it quite clear I wasn't Luna material and he had chosen another to take my place and I was to be demoted to an omega. That didn't go well with me, or Storm."
"So you ran?"
"We did and I'm sorry we've caused you any inconvenience. We'll be on our way now. I've got the all clear."
"Nonesece." I looked into her eyes and she was hiding something. I needed to find out what I was.
"Tell me about your life before him. Who was your fated mate?"
"I'd rather not talk about him?"
"Why? Was he that bad?"
"Worse. I wasn't wanted in my pack. He was one of my tournamentors and he thought it would be fun to mark me and take everything away from me. He was the beta of the pack and an asshole. I tried to reject him, so he decided to take my virginity and mark me.
That day I ran, rejecting his pathetic ass and severed all ties with the pack that ever wanted me there in the first place. I ran straight into rouge Kings territory. He took me in to make me his queen.
The day I shifted, the war between the rogues and my old pack began, so I ran."
"Who are you?"
"What do you mean I don't understand?"
"Why were you so important to all of them?"
"I don't know." She lied.
My eyes turned black, my wolf was taking over. She cowered back.
Abby
"Show yourself!" He grinned in a commanding tone.
"Show him Abby I trust him."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Show yourself!" He snapped.
And all I could do was obey. He was an alpha after all.
I slid up off the bed. Well, here goes nothing. I felt my bones crack as my arms transformed into front legs, my left into hind legs, my body full of white fur, my face into the shape of a snout for a nose, a mouth with sharp incisors. My hands were big paws with purple fur, my eyes the same colour.
I looked at him. He was an inch taller than me in his wolf form with black fur and cold blue eyes. He bowed. This was new.
"I will protect my Luna with my life. I promise you my pack will do everything in our power to protect you from harm and intruders."
"Thank you, but you have no need to."
"There is every need to, my Luna. If your true identity is shown to those after power and glory, they will do anything to get that power for themselves. I pledge to be your protector." He bowed. "Shift."
I shifted naked. He stood inches away from me naked. This was awkward.
