Alpha's Plight: Mated to my Daughter

The atmosphere was hot and very tense. Fear was the order of the day to the extent that even the chirping of the birds could not be heard. The terrible injustice against the moonstone pack was beginning to tell on them. Many had been wounded and many taken into captives.

Alpha Gonzalo was taken unaware but he had decided that he would never surrender his people to the enemy without a fight. He also had to save his pregnant wife and pups by sending them into the human globe. However, convincing her to do the needful wasn't easy.

“Ashina, use the ring now!, we have no time. This is your best chance to go into the human globe for safety”. Gonzalo, mindlinked his wife in desperation for the twentieth time.

“No, I can't live without you. I can't live alone there. Please let's go together”. Ashina cried pleadingly.

“Please do it, my love, you have to save our pups. You know how hard it was before you got pregnant. Save our little pups so they can at least live freely over there, should the enemies win over us, please”.

The Alpha kept begging Luna Ashina to save herself and their unborn pups but she found it hard to leave the wolf globe without him. It was not that she didn't want to save their pups but it was just that she wanted to leave with him. She was afraid that he would be killed in the war if she left.

Their priestess used to say that she was her husband’s strength and good luck charm due to the magical power she used to possess. She said as long as she remained around her mate, he would not die in the war. So those words had always existed in her mind. She was scared that if she got off, he might die or be taken into captivity like the priestess of their pack.

Moonstone Pack happened to have much richer territory than other Packs around them. They had more than enough food and the weather seemed more favorable on their side than the others. So the other three Packs felt bitter towards them not minding that they helped them out sometimes, especially during winter. Moonstone even went as far as allowing the younger ones to mingle by allowing them to have their education in the Moonstone Pack school they desired.

They were all good before the most greedy one, Alpha Dolph convinced others to fight against the Moonstone Pack. The plan was to kill most of their people and take the survivors into captivity.

So they were in the middle of a war between three packs against one, and it had become too bloody. The unexpected attack on Alpha Gonzalo's pack, The Moonstone, has left him and his warriors in profound despair

It happened that the Midnight Stalkers Pack, Shadow Runners Pack, and Nightfall Pack ganged up against the Moonstone Pack out of jealousy and greed. The three Alphas had been planning the attack for months without anyone knowing. The war had been on for days and the three packs seemed to be overpowering them.

When Alpha Gonzalo realized that they may not survive the war, even the power of their priestess and his Luna Ashina, who possess a witch power, could not save them. He decided to save his unborn pups and wife by pleading with her to use the magical ring in her possession to leave for the human globe for safety. Since going through the road or forest would be too stressful for her, he kept persuading her to use the ring.

His wife, Luna Ashina still had about three pieces of dimensional travel ring given to her by her aunt, who was the priestess before she was wounded by evil witches of the enemy's Packs and taken into captivity.

They were supposed to use the ring and escape to the human dimension for safety in the meantime. However, Alpha Gonzalo didn't deem it right to run away from his responsibility of protecting his people. So he tried to convince Ashina to use the ring and save herself and their unborn pups but she was having cold feet. She blocked their Park connection with him and went into the woods to hide.

Gonzalo’s Beta, Jared, tried convincing him to leave with his wife but he refused. Rather he became angry at him and told him not to ever advise him to abandon his people ever again.

Alpha Gonzalo summoned everyone to gather in their hidden abode close to the Packhouse where they normally met for urgent meetings. He needed to give them all the encouragement he could before it got worse. Immediately the remaining wolves gathered excluding a few guards kept to watch their territory boundaries.

He appreciated them for defending their Pack in the unexpected war but pleaded that they keep on fighting and trust in the will of their Moon goddess. He promised them that he would do his best to protect them. They all howled to applaud his words. Then his beta whispered to him pausing his speech.

“My Alpha, Luna is not around here and I couldn't connect to her or her maids”.

He nodded to him, finished up with the Pack members, and discharged them. Then turned and gave his beta sign to follow him.

“Not to worry Jared, she disconnected me as well but one of the maids had mindlinked me where they were hiding before she ordered them to disconnect from everyone. Ashina could be troublesome sometimes especially since she got pregnant but I need to send her off by force for the sake of our unborn pups” Gonzalo put in authoritatively.

They kept walking into the forest as they searched for her, sniffing everywhere. Then Gonzalo perceived her. His mate's scent could not be mistaken with another. The scent was coming from a small cave nearby. On getting closer, the Alpha called out to her.

“Ashina, I know you are in there so come out. Don't make me come in there by myself”.

Without wasting time, they saw her and two of her maids coming out. She was crying, hoping that her tears would soften the Alpha’s heart. Unfortunately, it didn't happen because immediately the Alpha growled at her.

“What do you think you are doing? You need to get the heck out of here. You are in your seventh month and the fight is dangerous. You are one of the targets because they didn't want me to have an heir. Use the ring now!“

Meanwhile, as they were at the meeting the enemies were busy strategizing the best way to attack again. Unknown to them one of the omegas in the palace was sending crucial information to Alpha Dolph of Shadow Runners Pack. She had told him about the plan of Alpha Gonzalo to send Luna away into the human globe for safety.

Instantly, Alpha Dolph gathered some warriors, sending out information that they were attacking the Moonstone Pack. The plan was not to let Luna out of the wolf globe alive. Moonstone Luna must be killed so that Moonstone would not boast of any successor after Gonzalo is defeated.

As Alpha Dolph’s only son, Conri heard that they must kill Luna of Moonstone, he felt concerned. He decided it was time he told his father a secret that had been unnerving him for months. He can't let them kill Luna because of her pregnancy.

Initially, he was against the ongoing war against the Moonstone because he liked the Pack a lot. He was among the youngsters who finished part of their education in Moonstone Pack. When he was with them, he enjoyed the Pack's hospitality very well. Alpha Gonzalo treated him as if he was his child while he was in school there.

So he went looking for his father to confront him concerning Moonstone Pack Luna. On seeing his father, he went straight to the point.

“Father, you can't kill the Luna, please call off the attack”

Alpha Dolph growled and nearly smacked him on his face. Conri’s father had always called him a weakling because he felt he wasn't as strong as him.

“What is the matter with you, Conri? Sometimes I wonder if you are my blood or someone else’s. This is war and in a war, there are no sentiments. Their Luna must be killed. Get out of my sight”. His father growled in anger.

“No Father, you can't do that, if you kill her the pups will die as well”. Conri disputed.

“What kind of a doctor are you? That is the exact plan, silly you. Talk with your senses. Of course killing the Luna will send the pups straight to heaven, you dumb ass”. His father yelled in anger and started walking away.

“Exactly what I don't want Father, I want the pups alive because they are mine!”. He yelled after him.

“What?” Escaped the father’s lips.
