The Unexpected Luna

Loneliness, my day-to-day life, can only be described as complete and absolute loneliness. Every day I wake up, and it is the same as any other day. I work, try to make amends to people that I have wronged, I have different reunions with Alphas to help my pack, and then I go to sleep. I lost everything, and I don’t mean recently, I mean since the moment I chose to damage the bond given by the Moon Goddess. I chose to hurt my fated mate, I chose to date her sister, and finally, I chose to reject her. Well, the last part isn’t entirely true, I wanted to reject her, but she was the one that did it in the end. I can’t blame her, she has a good reason for it. I was an asshole, I mistreated her. A mate is the person that you should worship, who is supposed to be your other half, the person that is going to complement you. And what did I do? f**k that up. Ares, my wolf, was furious. He stopped talking to me for years. The only time that he appeared was when my life was in danger, otherwise he ignored me. I had trouble turning into him, which is why people haven’t seen my wolf very much. Now we are in a better place. He was still hurt that he lost our mate, especially because I wanted to reject her because she was weak, and she sure as hell proved me wrong. She was now queen, and had a pup, Killian. I have met him a few times. The king and I weren’t exactly friends, but he had help me out to restore my pack. I changed a lot, but it was too late. Now I had to live with the consequences of my actions. My new beta, Joseph, was of great help. He was chosen with Ivy's help, as she had some kind of power or intuition to notice when someone was lying. I also made him take numerous tests to see if he was the correct person for the position. That was one law that I changed in my pack. Now everyone that wanted to be part of the high-ranking wolves needed to prove themselves worthy, and yes, that applied to be as well. Not many people challenged me for my position, fortunately, but the ones that did lost. Still, I noticed that I needed more training as an alpha, and so I went back to the basics. I went back to training camp. To see an almost thirty-year-old man with alphas who were teenagers was kind of pathetic for me, but I had to do it. I learned a lot and came back to continue my duty. The king made fun of me several times, but in the end he told me that it was a great decision, and that he was just messing with me. I was grateful, after all, with his help, I had taken my pack out of debt. Also, my father was facing numerous charges. He had committed too many crimes to be left without a punishment, and I was helping Kaid and Ivy with that as well. Why? Because when I investigated him I noticed links with werewolf trafficking, deviation of founds, mistreatment of several pack members, and even murder. He has been convicted, but now we have to find all the wolves that he trafficked. I had to give back all the money that he took for this "business", the part of the pack members had been issued with. I gave a public speech and told everyone to treat members fairly. I also issued an apology to everyone that may have been treated poorly. The murder part was hard, because he had killed several omegas who he had s*x with to shut their mouths. It had been a long journey, but I could finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. Now the only thing that I was missing was a Luna, but I still felt that I needed to grow more to be ready for one. I hoped that the Moon Goddess would decide to give me a second chance mate, but considering how I treated my first one, I highly doubted it. "Don't be so pessimistic, Ivy has told you to keep hope." Ares tried to lift my spirits up, but I still felt lonely, and now to make everything worse, Kaid wanted me to go to Alaska to go to another pack to investigate them. On top of that, I was going to go as the mate-less alfa, meaning that all the she-wolves were probably going to be after me. I don't want to seem like someone who thought he was the best of the world, but the problem was that if you are an alpha, many she-wolves are going to be after you. I had already learned from my experience with Bianca, and knew that I had to find a mate that I loved and cherished, but I wanted her to love me as well. I would love to have Ivy's ability, but I didn't, and I had to do things the old way, meaning, that I had to trust my instincts. Now I took Ares advice, he had better intuition than I did. Either way, I was not going to this event to get a mate, I was going to help Ivy and Kaid with the clue that they had. I was waiting for his call to finish up some details for the plan. They had investigated this pack for a long time, but they still lacked some information and I had to infiltrate to find that out. Joseph was going to come with me, to help me out with the mission. Only wolves without mates could go, so Kaid was out of the picture. Instead, they were going to send Chase. He was a human that was turned into a wolf by a maniac, the same one that kidnapped Ivy. He had become a great warrior, and even if he wasn't part of my pack I was more than glad to welcome him. Finally, my phone rang, and I knew it was Kaid, so I called Joseph to my office. "Hello your majesty." I heard a huff at the other end of the line. Kaid detested that people called him majesty, but that was what he was, and I had to show some respect. "Hello Alfa Alexander, is your beta with you?" Jospeh came into the office at that moment. I have to say, he was efficient. "Yes he is, so what else do you want to discuss?" I heard Ivy's and my heart skipped a beat. After all these years, she still had some effect on me. "Ivy is here with me to explain everything to you, we have more information that could be useful and also Chase is going to come to your pack tomorrow. Esmeralda is going to teleport him." They told us that the warrior that they had brought the last time wasn't a warrior at all, she was in fact a witch, and a very powerful one. "Okay, just tell us the location where he is going to appear, so I can make the arrangements." After that, they told me more information about why they needed me to go there in the first place. Apparently, when Bianca died she told Ivy that she had other enemies in the north, and with that warning they started looking for any suspicious activity there. Of course, they found it, as they noticed that werewolves had gone missing in that area, that people seemed to appear out of nowhere and that there was a report of a "disease" spreading. Apparently, it made wolves very sick, something unusual for us, to the point where some of them died. Great, they were sending me to a death trap. "And you are sending me there where they could put that virus on me and kill me? Are you sure you have forgiven me?" I heard Ivy chuckle. I probably sounded paranoid, but I didn't want to die in a place where no one knew me. "No silly, Esmeralda and I- her mate have already found a cure. We are going to send it with Chase, so if you start feeling sick you need to drink it immediately." That was a good backup plan, but I didn't know that Esmeralda's mate had knowledge of potions, and why did it seem like she wanted to say that she was the one that created the cure with Esmeralda? "Okay, then I have no more questions." We said our goodbyes and hung up. I had to prepare everything for the trip, to pack clothes and make sure that everything was alright for me to leave. My Gamma was going to stay, he was the only one that had a mate, so he did not have to come, but it was the first time he was going to be in charge. A new adventure awaited, and I hoped I was prepared for it. I was not going to let Ivy down. It was the least I could do for her.
