Chapter 9

Eight at night:

Finally, it was about time to begin when Marcus's mother approached the stage. Tapping a knife lightly on her champagne glass. Alerting everyone in the room.

--Luna Arkzovey Speech--

"Good evening Blue Crescent Wolves. Thank you so much for joining us, as we pass our title over to our son Marcus Peterson Black. Our son has worked and train so hard to become the Alpha we need. Let me introduce you all to our new Alpha.. Marcus Black" as Arkzovey Clapped to her side awaiting her son to come to the stage.

--Speech Ends--

Everyone claps and cheers as Logan ran up to the stage waving his hand.

--*Marcus Speech*---

"Thank you pack... it is an honour to be gifted this title. To lead our pack to the future. I... (as he places one arm across his chest) Marcus Peterson Black accept Carlos Rivera's title making me Alpha of the Blue Crescent Wolves. Now... i would like to thank my parents for everything they have done and also thank our warrior's and our women, you done a fine job helping the Alpha keep us together. Keeping us warm, healthy and protected. So I thank you again.

It is time for us to announce our new beta and third in charge". Everyone begins to cheer and whistle.

"Our new beta, Tristan Williamson would you come up please?" As Tristan began to look at Marcus with shock before heading up.

"Tristan Williamson has been my best pal since forever and I trust him with my life and I know he would be the perfect beta. I know he will protect us in every way possible. Please give it up to Tristan". Everyone began to cheer again but louder.

"My third in command is Michael Flynn, Michael please come up". They all stood together and bowed towards the crowd.

The ceremonial speech was almost done. One after the other they shook hands and began making their way off of the stage. As I stood alone at the back sipping on my drink, i saw Marcus walking toward my direction. "Is this it" as I  mumbled to myself. "Is this the time he will announce me as his Luna". I quickly knocked my drink back and stood up straight. Before he could reach me in swooped Tommy.

" Hey Larissa I  was wondering if you would like to go for a walk where we can talk in private". I noticed Logan stopped, glared at me and hurried off towards the stairs. So I nodded to Tommy and we began our night stroll through the forest.

I had to admit, I didn't think Tommy was funny but my annoying. We were talking about almost anything. He would make me laugh I would make him laugh. We sat together on a log before getting up to continue our walk. We were just about to arrive at the pack house and Marcus appeared in my mind. It sank in my head that he was really upset with me. So I practically trying to hurry Tommy along who was more walking like a sloth now. Trying so hard to keep me away from the pack house.

He began to grab my arm, twisting my body into his. He looked deep into my eyes and began to lean in for a kiss. I quickly pulled away and pushed him to the ground. There is no way I wanted my first kiss to be taken away from someone I didn't really like. 

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR!" Yelling as he got up and began to dust himself off. I could hear my mother crying in horror from inside the pack house. I apologised and ran as fast my legs could take me into the pack house.

Everyone's face was shocked as if they saw a ghost. "What is going on?" I questioned but no one seem to answer. I saw a group huddled in a circle near the stairs. Marcus looked at me with a saddened expression before looking down. As I got closer i could hear my mum yelling. I quickly ran up to her as she was huddled on the ground crying. I had asked what happened and then began asking where's the twins. Til suddenly I turned around and saw what I never thought I would ever see.
