The Cursed Alpha

Chapter 6

Carl's POV

I just looked at my family who stood before me with pure shock written across their faces. But the one with an unreadable expression .. is my Dad. There is something going on in his mind that I am sure, is not a good thing.

"Let's get home before someone notices and the word passes around" Mom said looking around.

I just nodded.

I don't know what to do. I silently walked behind them to the pack house. Of course I shook everyone by shifting into a bloodsucker instead of werewolf. That too in a werewolf pack for which, my dad is the Alpha King.

Talk about the irony!

Once we got back to the pack house, everyone sat in the living room. Layla and her brother Jason are already asleep since we were gone for a long time. They might have slept when we were still at the clearing.

"What now?" Uncle Kevin asked.

"You go and sleep Carl! We will find something" Grandma said in a sweet voice.

"But you know he can hear our conversation right?'' My mom voiced out that it made a lot of sense.

"Hey!" A voice rang in my head that made me freeze.

"What's wrong.?" My mom asked.

"I heard a voice. Do bloodsuckers have this too?" I asked.

"Yes! Since I am not a bloodsucker by nature.. I mean.. My father turned into a bloodsucker from being human and I was born the same way too. So we have human as well as vampire sides" She said.

"Did he talk?" She asked again.

I just nodded.

"Ok! Whatever you need to talk to him, just speak out loud in your mind." She said holding my shoulder.

"Hi?" I spoke but with my mouth shut.

"I'm Raul. Very very unfortunate to meet you" He spoke.

"What the-"

"Lower your voice Kid! I am not like this wolf who just rolls his eyes" he said, making me freeze in my spot again.

"Does that mean..?" I wasn't able to finish the sentence because this is too much!

"Good night" he said with a yawn.

What does he mean? Do I have a wolf as well?? Or does he also mean another? Being an Oracle itself is huge already. I can't handle being a hybrid alongside.

"Everything ok?" My mom asked me again.

"Yeah. He is just being an asshole" I whispered, making my mom let out a little giggle.

"But with this, his position as Werewolf King would be at stake" My dad spoke.

Alright! So this is what is bothering him! And thinking of it, I really can't take the title of Alpha King when I don't even have a wolf. This is going downhill.

"He can't be the bloodsucker king! No! I wouldn't let that happen" My mom slightly yelled.

She always kept me away from the bloodsucker territories. For one fact I know.. as I eavesdrop on mom and dad's convo I came to know that the bloodsuckers wouldn't leave a chance to take the title from my mom. Even if they had to use me as bait.

"Let us leave it here till we find a solution. I'll be leaving tomorrow. To the witch community, supernatural council and everywhere else to find the answer" Grandpa said.

"Let me tag along" I requested.

"No! You are not usual now Carl! You need to stay indoors for sometime. Do not let anyone know about this" Dad said as well.

I just nodded. I know being rare runs in my family but I guess I am super rare. Of course I would be one. The Werewolf King and Bloodsucker Queen has an only child! What would you expect that child to grow up as? Weirdly unusual!!

I stood up to go to my room. From the corner of my eye I saw Aiden following me silently.

"Good night," Mom whispered.

"Night" I whispered back without even glancing.

Aiden decided he'll just sleep with me in my room. Because the pack house is literally packed because Grandpa and Grandma decided to stay for the night as well.

"You ok?" Aiden whispered as soon as we laid on bed.

"I am. What makes you think I'm not?" I asked back.

"It's just too much. Right?" He asked again.

I didn't even decide to reply. I just let out a sigh. It is indeed too much. What in the hell was my fate written with? Will this even have a solution??

Even if I'm a hybrid, that doesn't end well. With a wolf and a vampire constantly dominating in my head. Being an Oracle doesn't make it easy. It's just like icing on the cake.

"Are you asleep?" I asked.

"Nah! Just .. thinking" Aiden whispered.

"About?" I asked.

"Stuff" he replied.

He has his own issues about taking the pack from his dad as well. But the thing is, he is unable to track his dad down. He is constantly moving, drinking and what not.

Nick Malloy. He was always a hero to me. But one fine day, his mate got admitted to the hospital. He was a wreck. Beyond devastated. But he still got it together! He believed Moon Goddess would never do such a thing to him. He believed he harmed no good. So he trusted the Moon Goddess.

But his mate passed away. And she took his hopes, trust and everything he had on Moon Goddess. He has been that way since then. Drinking. Just drinking. One day he said he wanted to go to human territory. Because he wants to go to the place where his mate grew up and feel her presence.

But he failed to understand that she was Luna. So her presence is always in the pack and around him. We have rarely seen him since that day. Aiden pretty much did everything on his own. And now, he aims for the title on his 17th birthday which is in 2 months.

"Night you fucker!" Raul's voice rang, making me roll my eyes.

It's definitely gonna be hard to get along with this man. I wonder if I'll even make it till on good terms. Friendship is a whole different thing considering this asshole.
