My Moonlit Alpha

Chapter 1

"F@#k" were the words I uttered as I watched the guy of my dreams die in my arms.

Normally you'd expect this story to start with me in bed or something like that but that's not the case here, this story is one like none you've ever read before, not that I'd know what you've read before but just bear with me.

It starts in the earlier hours of the day, on my bed as I hug my pillow with as much strength as my arms will allow. while dreaming about him, I don't know his name but at the same time I do, I don't know what he looks like but I know I want him. he holds me in his arms, pulls me closer and looks deep through the windows of my soul, I can't take it anymore. I lean in for a kiss and wow his lips tastes like spice. I want him more, I enjoy it with every ounce of my being, then I hear my name, and the fun is ruined.

" Lilith ", And i am brought back to reality, with a look that screams " kill me now ". I awaken from Lalaland, I jump from my bedding and sluggishly make my way to the door. I open the door and standing behind it like a creature from a kids folklore, my mother, Abigail, with a look on her face that says " do you want to die ". she asks that I get to work. I give her the mornings greetings but she replies with " you've overslept like you always do ". I greet my grandmother and with haste I make my way to the pigsty to clean and feed the pigs, a process I'll repeat with the sheep's and horses, yes, we own pigs, horses and sheeps. in a little over an hour I finish the chores and make my way back to the house for breakfast, as I get closer to the house I can hear someone chattering with my mother about the months hunting party. just so you know the hunting party is a system our village uses to maximize hunting efficiency while also reducing the likelihood of casualties during the hunt, this includes our hunting grounds and route. According to whoever I'm eavesdropping on, the months hunting party will be organized through a contest of strength which is being held at the village square. I know you can't see me but I'd like to think I'm pretty physically gifted, cause I am.

Unable to contain the excitement i make for the village square, I get there in a little over eight minutes and quickly make my way to the participants registry. while in line, I hear a snarky comment from the next queue, on my being a girl and for the love of something I resist the urge to shove this person somewhere. I take a long look at his face and decide to ignore him. it's finally my turn and the nice lady at the register asks why I want to participate, and I jokingly tell her " no comment ". she looks at me and with the strangest smile in all the realms, she gives me a ticket number " 7 " and tells me not to lose it as it's my contestant Identification and to wait near the arena, which I do.

A few moments go by and it's finally my turn to throwdown, I couldn't wait any longer. my opponent is called in as well and what do you know, to my surprise it's snarky comments guy, other than the meat delivery man I've never been so happy to see a guy in my life, I honestly can't wait to f@#k him up. he starts saying something and bragging and I start to zone out cause of his bullsh*t, the referee gives the green light and before I know it, snarky comments guy lands a punch right on my chin. the first thought that crosses my mind is that he's not holding anything back, the second is that he can even throw a punch, I pegged him for the weak type, my bad I guess. he's seems to be just as shocked to see that his punch didn't do anything to me, and he starts yapping about how he's going to win because he's a man and I'll lose because I'm a woman, this infuriates me. so I grab him by the neck and slam him face first into the solid rock beneath our feet, he lays almost lifeless as I'm declared winner of our bout.

everyone seems shocked to see me win so effortlessly, they damn near water me down with their eyes and murmurs. I hear someone in the crowd say

" I'm sure he's strong, she must have promised him something if he let her win, I wonder what it is ".

I walk out the arena with nothing but disgust and hate. I personally don't know why, but since I was a kid I've always been strong, in my mother's words " too strong for a girl ". my grandma once explained it to me but I couldn't give a cr@p at the time, cause I was more worried about getting out of the house and playing with other kids.

though I vaguely remember something about bloodline and a family tree or something.

I sit down with the other winners, then the next bout starts and there he is, " isol ". not to be cliche or anything but he is pretty dreamy, every sane girl in the village also thinks the same thing.

girls cheer and chant his name as he makes his way into the arena, and I start to wonder if he saw my match and what he thinks of me " does he think I'm strong, did I impress him, does he like me ". with the bombardment of thoughts crossing my mind I nearly shortcircuit my brain cause I'm obsessed with him, I'll never show it but yes, what girl doesn't have a guy they drool over, don't judge me.

he wins his match just as easily as the next guy " me ", cause why not. and he seems to be walking in my direction," oh my goodness, could it be, am I finally on his radar ", I think to myself and with eyes that seem to be as bright as the morning star, he asks if he can sit with me, and faster than he can complete his sentence I respond with a yes. he sits beside me and God damn it I nearly go blind from looking at his eyes for too long.

the contest comes to an end and the results are out, everyone who won their bout is called to the arena as the months hunting party, well everyone except me of course, when has anything ever gone my way.

Chapter 2

Now to continue where we left off. I didn't make it into the months hunting party, though I'm pretty sure I won my fight. I get angrier and angrier the more I think about it, and without delay I make my way to the village chief's house. in a fit of rage I barge in and guess who I see with the village chief, my mother.

I immediately know what's up, my mother looks at me and I look back at her.

" You had no right " I scream with all the strength I can muster.

" Yes I do, I'm your mother and I know what's best for you, you should act more ladylike and stop this tomboyish behavior ",

she replied.

then to my regret I say something I shouldn't have.

I would tell you what it is but I'm too ashamed to say it a second time. i regret saying what I said to her but I'm not about to apologize if she doesn't apologize first. I run out the chiefs house with enough tears in my eyes to literally make a river, I can't clearly see where I'm even going but I know I just want to get away from them, people who think they can control every aspect of my life because I'm a girl. And I know you're asking " why should I care that you feel this way ?, you're not the only one who experience's this type of thing, why should the world stop because you're angry at it ? ". well, it shouldn't.

As I run away, not really sure where I'm going at this point. I run into isol, the guy from before.

he asks " what's wrong Lilith, why are you crying ", OMG he knows my name, now I know this isn't the time to be fan girling over this hunk of meat but would you really blame me. I just had an epic I've had enough of your b@#£shit argument with my mom and I'm currently looking for someone to give me emotional validation, so it's just my luck that it's him.

We chat for a bit and he asks if I'd like to hangout with him for a while to get my mind off things, " F@#k yes ", but I say it in a proper ladylike manner.

" thanks, I'd like that ", as he takes my hand in a very firm and comforting manner, it feels like something is flying around in my stomach. we make our way to the local tavern.

" hope you don't mind me getting you a cup of beer "

it's not my first rodeo with beer, I can handle it, I think.

we talk for what seems like hours I notice someone approaching our table, it's a friend of his, cept, and he has a mean look in his eyes.

he tells isol about a scouting operation they have in a few minutes.

scouting operations being another system we use in our hunting strategy to identify the best possible routes and grounds for hunting.

isol looks at me and asks that we meet up later, though I like the idea of meeting up later, I think to myself, " this is the perfect opportunity to join a party and prove my worth ".

I try to convince him to let me tag along, but cept's not liking the idea and that's okay cause I don't like him either, he has a weird face. isol finally buys the idea but cept doesn't like it and who cares what he likes and doesn't, again, I don't like him.

we rendezvous with the rest of the scouts and isol introduces me to them.

" this is luvera, ace, kasim, feebs, Gideon, sara and you've already met cept ", and yes I've already met cept, still don't like him. we exchange pleasantries and make our way to the village gate, while isol and Gideon go to get instructions from the village chief. after a bit they come back with the instructions and we set off, and I'm excited as f@#k to finally go on what I think is an adventure.

we set off on horse back and after forty minutes since exiting the village, we get to mount krik, from which we'll make our way to the designated route. we get down the mountain and feebs suggests we take a short cut through the woods to get to the route a few hours ahead of time, everyone except isol seems to agree with this, so we take the short cut.

as we navigate through the woods, we stop for a short break, cause feebs couldn't choose a better time to move his bowels. so while he is sh*thing our time away, we're chatting and snacking.

then we hear it, what sounds like a short and painful scream, the horses are scared and we're also scared, atleast that's what I think. Gideon calls for feeb and asks that he stop with the jokes, he sits back down and continues to eat. the horses run off and at the corner of my eye, I see it.

A very tall man standing behind a tree with what seems like a dead animal in his hand. I'm scared, obviously, but as I look closer, this dead animal starts to look alot like a human.

" Dear God, feebs "

Sara screams, " oh my God, it's feebs "

everyone turns around to witness what they would wish is a nightmare.

" it's a Wakani, it's a f@#king Wakani " says luvera.

" what is a Wakani doing here, this isn't a known territory of theirs " replies isol.

I know for a fact what happens to people the Wakaani catch on their territory and I'm about to get the first hand experience.

it's cracked grey skin, muscular body, full mane and dim red eyes, it drops feebs lifeless body to the ground and starts walking towards us.

" run " says isol, " run as fast as you can ". and without a second thought we start to run, but it's faster, in a matter of seconds it catches up to us and I wish I can forget what follows.

Sara's head is separated from her body and holy f@#k she's still screaming, I didn't know her that long but I have to wonder how she can scream so loud without her body and lungs. my heart's racing and before I know it this thing is upon me, I know I'm dead though I wish otherwise. I start to regret my earlier decision of disobeying my mothers instructions, of all the times to be disobedient and it leads to my death.

I watch as it raises it's hand to skewer me alive, but isol pushes me out of the way but he loses a chunk of his stomach. I'm horrified to see his wet parts falling out, he is laying dead in my arms.

" F@#k " were the words that left my mouth, the others try to use the opportunity to escape, but it roars with an intensity that does not permit movement. we know we're screwed, it comes up to me and suddenly stops, then backs away.

I hear a low growl behind me and as I turn around I can't believe my eyes, Holy F@#k it's a werewolf.

Chapter 3

Feebs is dead, Isol is dead, Sara is dead, there's a Wakaani standing in from of me, there are werewolves, everyone is scared, then I black out.

I wake up in a hut. I'm very sure I was about to die just a moment ago. I go outside the hut, it's night time and there are people around that I don't recognize, not anyone or this village, then I see cept.

" not this guy " I whisper to myself as I make my way towards him. don't get me wrong, I still hate him but I'm pretty clueless about what's going on and I need to be brought up to speed. surprisingly he seems happy to see me.

then I ask " what happened, how are we here, and where's everyone else.

to which he replies " we were saved by the werewolves and are In their village to the west of mount krik, luvera, ace, Gideon and kasim are alright ".

thank the heavens, then I hear a big BUT. he tells me how the werewolves saved us from the Wakaani and drove it off and though the others are alive they are not without their scars, especially Gideon.

I ask " what happened to him ? ", and right when he's about to tell me we're interrupted by some naked guy, and I freak out at first but I couldn't help but look at it and " Wow " is that thing real.

he's talking to cept, and while he's yapping about something I notice that most everyone here is either butt naked or is half naked. then cept calls my attention and we walk with naked guy to the big flame at the center of the village.

" I know you have alot of questions and they will be answered "

he starts explaining his clan but I can't get over the fact that people dies right in front of me. i can't even think straight as I remember isol's lifeless eyes and cold expression.

cept leaves to go check on the others, and I'm alone with naked guy, and holy sh*t this is weird as hell. he brings me some animal hide ( Blanket ) and some warm soup to warm me up.

he sits across from me

" Can you put on something, I'm trying to mourn my dead companions. " and he replies " I'm sorry I couldn't save them, if only I had gotten there sooner, you wouldn't have had to go through what you did that day. "

I was out for a whole day and my head is all fuzzy. we have to get back to the village, we can't stay here any longer. but he assures me that being here till everyone is ready for the trip back would be for the best, to which I agree but I can't seem to shake the feeling that cept is up to something though I decide to ignore it. I ask about the bodies, to which he says they were able to recover only feebs and Saras. they need someone close to the deceased to perform a burial rite, a ritual that they perform for those who were killed by the Wakaani.

" do you think you can perform the ritual "

" I can, but shouldn't cept do it, I barely knew them that well "

he tells me that cept asked I do it. naked guy calls for the tribes people to gather around the flame for the ritual.

As everyone gathers they bring feebs and Saras corpses, I'll never be the same after this. they start saying incantations as they put the bodies into the flame. naked guy gives me a powder to throw into the flames, as I do so the flames grow larger and change into a green flame.

then the thought strikes me, " where is cept ? ", as I scan through the tribesmen, I can't seem to find him.

once we're done, everyone goes back to doing what they were previously doing, I sit back down and naked guy comes back to sit with me, " not weird at all ".

we share a common ancestry with the Wakaani but somewhere along the line we separated because they broke a sacred law.

we talk for what seems like hours and before I know it, I almost completely ignore the fact that he's naked and just pay attention to the conversation. he tells me about the hierarchy in the pack, Thier warrior pack, which apparently are a separate but integral part of their survival.

we stayed outside even after most everyone were going to sleep, we stayed awake and enjoyed each other's company. the flame goes out, they have a strict curfew so he offers to walk me back to the hut, to which I agree.

" I can walk myself, but I wouldn't mind you walking me. "

Then he picks me up and takes me to the hut, when we get there he gently let's me down and as we stare into each other's eyes, there's an awkward moment. though that's not a problem for me,

" I also wouldn't mind if you came with me into the hut to protect me Incase a Wakaani shows up during the night. "

" what ? "

" did I stutter ? "

" ...... "

" just get in here "

I drag him into the hut, I gently kiss him and under normal circumstances I'd have him take off his clothes but he's wasn't wearing any to begin with, which makes my job easier for me. I push him unto the bed and cross him as we kiss some more, then he grabs my breast and by the look in his eyes I can tell he likes them. I take my clothes off as he caresses my Bum, then he ever so gently throws me on the bedding. he kisses my lips and then my other lips, I have to admit for a guy who can turn into a wild animal, his tongue is even wilder. he definitely knows how to work his tongue. he tongues me so good that I tightened my legs around his neck and he picks me up in that position. long story short, we f@#k like wild animals and I enjoyed every bit of it. after we're done bothering the entire tribespeoples sleep, he falls asleep but I stay awake and for some reason I remember my mother. now I'm feeling like total sh*t, I feel like I've abandoned her because I have.

then I hear something outside the window, it sounds like someone walking around.

shouldn't there be a curfew, I take a peek through the window and I see an awfully familiar silhouette, and as I gently push the window board aside, I can see it's Ace walking around.
