Chapter13
When I thought of the initiation I thought it would be some big ceremony that would involve the entire pack. Though what it really came down to was me the alpha along with Drew and Mick my second and third in command signing a document.
The signing was seen over by the Elders who in turn signed the document also. The document simply stated that we had been recognised by the council as a pack and it my duty to protect my pack always.
The document had to be signed in blood binding us to the decision we had made in becoming a true pack.
After we had signed the document I called a pack meeting and showed the pack the document the clearing was filled with cheers and whistling my pack showing their happiness.
Due to it being hot and the overall excitement we all decided a pack barbeque is what is best so we had at it celebrating into the night not me obviously I was only sixteen. I took the kids to bed and said goodnight.
The elders had already left saying that they had other business that needed to be taken care of but that they would return to see us again. I still remember Elder Drakes last words to me.
“We will be back young one I feel that we have much to learn from you‘
I was brought out of my thoughts by a tug on my sleeve “sissy does this mean were all a real family know” Elise whispered hope clear in her eyes.
I held both Evan and Elise close “we will always be family kiddo no matter what” I whispered back to both of them hoping they understood how much they meant to me.
This was just the start of something special I hadn’t really needed the recognition by the council to know we all were family but my pack had needed it. I promised that I would protect them all with my lives and that is a promise I am never going to break.
4 years later
I was fixing my hair it had been so long since we had become an official pack and I had just turned 20. Just remembering the celebrations was funny it seemed like everyone else had enjoyed themselves.
I had
grown a few inches taller over the years and developed a bit of muscle from my training my deep brown hair was up to my waist. I realised I hadn’t changed that much because I already acted like an adult when I was 14 and first formed the pack. It seemed like so long ago.
Chapter13
I wasn’t that same abused girl I was all those years ago know I was an alpha of one off the strongest packs.
It had been good for the pack especially the fighters there had become an increasing problem from rogues and hunters. Our pack had been asked by the council to help train the others since we were know ranked number 2.
I didn’t care much for the ranking system most packs would attack others just to have their pack move up the ladder. It is disgusting how they could do something so vicious just for power.
The reason why our pack is at the top is because we have the best fighters around even better then the silver shadow pack who are number 1.
I don’t really talk to the other alphas much I’m pretty sure only one other alpha actually knows that I am a women.
I had found it better to send Drew or Mick in my place to the alpha meetings I knew the fact that I was young and female would draw unwanted attention to my pack.
Plus I just could never be bothered to deal with the politics of packs especially talking to self obsessed alphas. It is my personal idea of hell I would rather stay home and look after my pack.
In the last four years my pack had grown we know had 527 members and counting we are a strong and united pack unlike many of the surrounding packs.
Many of them had tried to make pacts with us but I refused especially when I saw how those alphas treated their packs. They were full of greed and wanted to latch onto my pack for our increasing influence and power.
There was only one alpha that I found out of 5 packs that treated his pack with kindness and he is alpha Jacob Danes of the crescent moon pack. We had a treaty between us and many pack members had found their mates so it was a win win situation.
Snapping out of my daydreaming I walked towards my office as someone called out to me.
“Alpha Leila” Drew called I had asked everyone to call me Leila i didn’t really like the sound of alpha Van Derbergh it was too weird.
“Yes Drew what’s the matter” I asked feeling slightly apprehensive of what he had to say.
“Alpha we had a call from two packs requesting a treaty with our pack, another that requested that
we train them and a call from the elders.
I went through the list why would the elders call all of a sudden I had spoken to them last month.
Chapter13
“Drew what did the elders want” I asked confused.
“I don’t know alpha, they just said that they needed to speak to you immediately! He said confusion
in his eyes also.
“Ok then let’s go to my office so we can talk I would like a further update I’ll call Mick as well” I replied.
“Mick where are you?” I called out through the pack link.
“I am in the kitchen alpha with the kids” he answered straight away.
