THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

MR. CALLAN’S POV.

I am sitting on one of the couches in my bedroom, sipping wine from the glass in my hand and completely lost in thought. My daughter, Reign is going to turn eighteen tomorrow and things are going to change for this entire pack if nothing is done.

There is a Legend which states that once in every after one thousand years, there’s going to be a war between packs for power and riches and fame and that war is going to be sparked by the birth of a very powerful She-wolf that would be born in the pack that won the previous fight

That pack is my pack, the Diamond Stone Pack and that she-wolf is my daughter, Reign.

She has extraordinary strength. Her mother even died at childbirth because of the powers that the child wielded. I have succeeded in making sure no one else, except for me, my daughters and Sean knows that Reign is exceptionally powerful because I don’t want to raise suspicions about the upcoming war.

Everyone else thinks it is a myth since it has been so long since it happened and I want it to remain that way.

I hate the current Alpha, Alpha Hardin Alonso and I don’t want him to win the Elemental Fight of this Millennium. I have made plans with another Alpha to mate with Reign first so that he would wield those powers and defeat Alpha Hardin during the War.

Yes, my daughter Reign is mated to our Alpha, Alpha Hardin.

She is excited to meet her mate tomorrow, but that is not going to happen. I have a whole different plan in mind for her and if it works, that will be the end of Alpha Hardin and my plan will be set in motion.

“Dad!” A call snaps me out of my thoughts and I look up to see my daughter, Wilma, standing in front of me, looking worried. “Dad, is everything alright?” She asks concerned as she sits by my side.

“Yes love, everything is alright.” I lie.

“I don’t believe you dad, you were completely lost in thought when I walked in so don’t tell me everything is alright.” She says in a firm tone and I smile.

She looks just like her mother. Both girls look just like their mother especially when in a bad mood.

“Well, I’m just thinking about your sister.”

“That’s strange. You never think of or bother about Reign. What’s wrong? You think you’ll miss her when you let her go?” She asks sarcastically.

She knows how I feel about her sister. I don’t like her very much, despite the fact that she is my daughter.

“That’s just a very superficial reason, Wilma. Very superficial. The reason behind my sudden overthinking is deeper than anyone can imagine.” I explain and Wilma looks at me confused.

“Dad, I’m confused.”

“Wilma.” I call and turn to face her on the couch we are both seated on.

“Yes dad.”

“I want you to spend the night in your sister’s room today. Have her cuddled up your arms and tomorrow, I want you to wear one of her clothes for the party.”

Wilma frowns.

“You have been asking me to do that a lot lately. Why?” She asks with creased brows.

“There is a reason why I asked you to get close with Alpha Hardin. The night before you met Alpha Hardin at the castle during the annual ball, I asked you to do the same thing. Spend the night with you sister cuddled up in your arms and wear her clothes. During the party, the Alpha mistook you for his mate, why do you think that happened?” I ask and she shrugs her shoulders, indicating she has no idea. “Because he smelled your sister’s pheromone on you and thought you were his mate.”

“Dad.” She calls quietly. “Are you trying to say Reign is mated to Alpha Hardin?” she asks lifelessly.

“Yes. She is. That’s why I asked you to get close to Alpha Hardin and now that he has marked you as his, everything is on track.”

“No! She can’t be! How are you even sure about that?”

“It’s a long theory that I’m going to tell you’d if you just calm down and listen to me” I explain and she stays still. She looks like she is going to burst into tears anytime soon.

“Alright dad.” Her voice is shaky. “I’m all ears.”

“Good, have you ever heard of the Battle of the Elementals?”

“Yeah, but it’s a myth, right?” She asks and I chuckle with my head bowed down. “Dad, what’s funny?” She questions in confusion and I lift my head up to look at her.

“What if I told you it’s not.”

“What?”

“Yeah, it’s not and just so you could know, this is the generation that has to fight that battle.” I spit out fiercely and Wilma is taken aback.

“No! No!” She denies and laughs. “Dad, you’re joking, this is one of your crazy jokes right?” She asks laughing harder.

“Do I look like I’m joking?” I put on my most serious look. She stops laughing. The cheerful look on her face disappears and is replaced with horror.

Now, she knows I’m serious.

“Dad, you are serious.” She says breathlessly.

“I am.”

“So, that means as we are now, there’s a fire, a water, an air and an earth Elemental roaming the various packs?”

“As a matter of fact, yes, there is.”

“Sweet Moon goddess! And there’s a miracle Luna somewhere who has got all these powers?”

“Exactly! The most horrific part is that, she is not just somewhere, she is in here with us.”

“Dad, who is that?” She asks aghast.

“Your sister, Reign. She is the Miracle Luna.” I announce and Wilma’s breath hitches in her lungs.

“No way!” She flatly denies it.

“That’s the truth, but I have a plan. I don’t want her getting marked by Alpha Hardin because if that happens, he will get all her powers as well and they will be invincible. He will win this war. ”

“Me too dad. Like this is so unfair to me! My mate is someone ordinary, but here she is about to be mated to the Alpha of our pack. In addition to that, she has powers that will have everyone crawling at her feet including you and I. I don’t want her to rule over me, dad. I never ever want to call her Luna!” Wilma cries and I totally understand her.

“And that won’t happen if you do as I say”

“I will do anything you say dad, I will do anything at all.”

“That’s my girl. You see, Alpha Hardin’s family has been in Supreme power for too long now and I want that power to change hands, that’s why I have sided with Alpha Adolf of the Black River Pack for this battle.”

“But that’s our enemy pack. Both Alpha Adolf and Alpha Hardin don’t see to eye.”

“That’s all the more reason why I sided with Alpha Adolf. I want him to take down this self satisfied strut called Alpha Hardin.”

“So, how do you plan to do that?”

“There’s a reason why I insisted we kept your sister’s extraordinary strength a secret from all the others. You know everyone thinks this battle a myth, but if they know that a powerful She-wolf has been born, they’ll start asking questions and sooner or later, they’ll realise the truth and start preparing for war. I don’t want that to happen. I want this to be sudden and brief. I want Alpha Adolf to attack once and conquer.”

“Then what happens to us?”

“Don’t worry about that Wilma, none of my daughters will be harmed”

“Alright then, so what do I have to do?”

“First, I have invited Alpha Hardin over for your sister’s birthday party.”

“Don’t you think everything will be ruined if he sees Reign. He’ll know she’s his true mate and he might accept her and leave me.”

“I have everything planned out, Wilma don’t worry about that part. That won’t happened. Just trust me and do as I’ve instructed.”

“So what will happen to Reign after that?” She asks and I just smile and stay silent.

I can’t tell her because if I do, she will back out and even report me to Alpha Hardin. My plan after that is not pleasant at all that’s why I need to keep it a secret.

“That shouldn’t bother you, I’ll take it from there, but just know before the war comes, I’ll make sure you are far away from this pack and safe.”

“Alright dad, I’ll do just as you have instructed.”

“That’s my girl. That’s all what I summoned you for, you can go to bed.”

“Goodnight dad.” She pecks my cheek and exits the office.

A heavy sigh escapes my lips when she shuts the door behind her. My heart bleeds because what I have to do to her and her sister tomorrow is cruel, but I must do it.

Anything for power!
