The Accidental Luna

If someone was looking from afar, one could see how the two best friends look at each other and deduce that their friendship is deep rooted in brotherly-love; it is always Orion and Tristan. No one else, just them two against the world. The young Alpha and his Warlock friend. The two always do their things together and seems inseparable, it was almost like nothing and no one else could come between them, or at least that is what it seems to the world.

Then there was a girl named Kyler, human, pinning after the young alpha like every other girls in school does, who wouldn't? The young alpha was a 6'1 stunner, dark hair and piercing blue eyes, almost like frozen sea water in the winter. She was beautiful and she knows it. She was not like an insecure girl who wasn't aware of her beauty. But, as she was totally heads over heels for the young alpha, so does the warlock friend fancying the beautiful Kyler.

"Hey", the beautiful red head that is Kyler said as she tucked her hair behind her right ear, speaking to the two friends, she was staring straight at Orion trying to make her intentions known, but as handsome as the young alpha was, he wasn't the type that catches on to others' feelings easily.

"Hello", Orion and Tristan answered at the same time, but the warlock's voice sounded kind of broken making it seems like he was stunned by the girl's beauty.

"Um, Do you guys want to study together later tonight?" she thought it would be easier to ease Orion into liking her if his best friend was present.

"Yeah, sure", Orion was the one to answer as Tristan was still staring shamelessly with mouth wide open, making his friend nudge him in the arm, he nodded too.

"Alright, I'll see at the diner", with that said, Kyler turned around and left to do her own thing- planning to make Archer fall for her.

"Tristan, are you okay?" the young alpha asked his friend seeing as his friend was looking like someone who was put in some kind of trance.

"Did you see how beautiful that girl was?" Tristan fired back making Orion's eyebrow shoot up like what his friend said is the strangest thing ever.

In Orion's defense, Tristan is never one to show interest in any girl since the beginning of their teenage years, where girls were swimming around the young alpha, the warlock simply lets him have his moments without interruption. As a warlock, having mates wasn't easy, but, seeing Kyler, something unlocked inside of Tristan, like love at first sight.

"We should go to that date, and then..." the warlock told his friend, more of a command

"Date, what do you mean date? She said studying though", Orion cut his friend off

"Fine! We should totally go the studying", Tristan rephrased

"Okay", Orion couldn't help but agree seeing the kind of reaction his friend was giving; it was new and strange to him

With that, the two best friends continued their day of boring classes and almost meaningless conversation with so called friends. Being the future alpha of the Blood River Pack brought a lot of attention; wanted and unwanted towards Orion's way and Tristan was more than happy to back his friend up whenever. After all, it was them two against the world.

Going to the study session was not the hard part, it was hard keeping Tristan focused for more than two minutes, he was just staring at Kyler shamelessly every chance he got. Although the said girl noticed, she neither did nor said anything about it because she also was busy staring at Orion, who was the only serious person during their study session. He didn't really need the education, as his only legacy was being the Alpha when the time comes.

After the study session, the trio parted ways, Kyler headed to her home in town and the two best friends who lived side by side at the pack house to their homes as well. Their little study dates went on for about a month; it strengthened their friendship in some kind of way with the love triangle going on, a love triangle that Orion knew nothing about.

It was a sunny afternoon, the trio was under the shady tree where they usually have their lunch at, when Tristan decided to shoot his shot and ask Kyler out on a date.

"Kyler?" Tristan called out

"Yes", she answered

"Do you want to go out tonight?" he asked

"Yeah, sure", she responded thinking he was referring to the three of them going to their usual study date

As if sensing what she was thinking, Tristan clarified for her "I mean just the two of us, you and I", he told her, and immediately she scrunched her face up as if a vile thing entered her mouth. Not liking the reaction he got, Tristan came all out.

"Like a date", with that, she starts to shake her head no furiously.

Orion wasn't interested in Kyler, so he decided to keep quiet and let his friend have his moment.

"I can't go on a date with you, Tristan", Kyler spoke out after shaking her head no

"But, why?" a confused Tristan asked why the only girl he has ever showed interest in wasn't responding favorably

"I'm in love with someone else", she said. Orion decided to intervene to side his friend

"Who are you in love with?" He asked her ready to convince her as best as he could to date Tristan, but the answer that came out of Kyler's mouth shocked them both to the core.

"You!, Orion, I'm in love with you", she shouted with so much confident like it is the most obvious thing in the world.

It was obvious that Kyler's response angered Tristan to the point that he doesn't want to be in the presence of his best friend, to him it seems like the greatest betrayal of the century. He took off to the forest with the intent of no return. For someone who had barely shown any interest in anyone since they were little, Orion seems to understand his friend's feelings, but at the same time, he had an idea of where Tristan might have ran off to, so he made a mental note to check on him later after sorting things out with Kyler.

"Listen Kyler", Orion started as stern and cold as he could be. Being the future alpha gave him that privilege of making anything in the world listen to him whether they like it or not. It is natural instinct to want to listen to an Alpha, human or super-natural.

"I don't like you that way at all and you just hurt my best friend's feeling with what you said, it is better if you stay away for a while", he told her and left immediately, not giving her the chance to say whether she heard him or not.

Orion knew the only way to help Tristan was to keep calm, because he had the tendency of making things blow up with his magic when he was angry or did not get his way since they were little. Orion knew he needed to be level headed to keep his friend out of danger.

In the forest, where Tristan had ran off to, the grounds were shaking indicating the presence of a very powerful warlock being angry, his magic was acting out. Because he was a young warlock, a powerful one at that, he was still learning the art of magic and control and because he is yet to grasp the art of control, it was hard for his magic to not act out when he was that angry.

He was fuming, thinking Orion has betrayed him after all the support he has brought to the young alpha while they were growing up and till date. Growing up, they were two peas in a pod, wherever one went, the other followed. They caused troubles together, made mistakes together and learnt their lessons as well. It was because of everything they have been through together that made him think Orion was a traitor; although, in his subconscious, he knew the young Alpha would never do anything to hurt him, he was just too angry to let it go and reason for a bit.

It wasn't long before Orion caught up to his friend, tracking his scent with his werewolf ability. He could feel the land tremble where he stood, an indicator of Tristan's magic acting out.

"Tristan!" Orion called out, once, twice, before the said friend appeared.

"Tristan, I swear I didn't know she was going to say that", he quickly explained knowing that Tristan has the tendency of destroying things, human included as the powerful warlock he is.

"", Tristan paused his lips and didn't bother uttering a word; he simply stared at Orion, lips pressed together in a thin line, thinking of ways to make the traitorous friend pay for his sins.

Being the Alpha has been good to Orion because he had good genes that make ladies always want him wherever they go. Tristan never thought anything of it since no one really interests him and he knows he himself was good looking too. Perhaps it was the fact that Orion had a handsome face that called people in, maybe that was the reason Jaden didn't want anything to do with him, Tristan thought if he destroyed the face and made it unrecognizable, no one else would want Orion the way they did, no on including Jaden. Tristan wanted to turn his friend's face hideous, and he did just that.

"Faciem tuam vide malum", Tristan casted the easy spell making Orion fall to the ground as the pain of his face melting was too unbearable even for an alpha werewolf. It was easy for him to cast such spell because he was a very powerful warlock that learns quickly.

After casting the spell, it wasn't long for it to start working on Orion, in fear and disgust, Tristan quickly ran off, vowing to never let anyone in love that is within his sight ever live. A stupid vow he made simply because he was angry for being rejected for the first time. He travelled for so many days until he came across a new pack, Velvet Moon Pack. He was roaming around the pack lands after masking his scent looking for shelter; he wanted to make the pack his home. He almost did make the Pack his home, but he realized they were a pack full of love for one another, something he despised, Love.

He was walking through the woods on a peaceful afternoon when he heard laughter not too far away, and he decided to check it out. Lo and behold, he saw a happy couple, who according to their scents are werewolves from the pack near where his shelter was built and it looked like they were on a picnic/ family date, as their little pup was yapping happily around the couple who seemed to be having the time of their life.

With the anger of his unrequited love seemed to be burning like never before in his heart, he went ahead and gathered a group of rogues to attack the pack at his command. It was easy to lead a pack of rogues with the kind of magic he processed. Tristan and Hid pack of rogue wolves attacked the pack when they least suspected and killed many innocent lives or wolves in their case.

He was frustrated when he saw that they still helped, cared and loved each other, even at the point of death, he saw a woman taking care of people from her pack like a leader, but he couldn't stand it, he blasted the woman with his magic, killing her.

The woman Tristan killed had a little girl, who watched her mother die before her eyes and with her piercing eyes she made out the image of Tristan, her mother's murderer. Being a pup born of two alpha wolves, the little girl let out a loud howl signifying her pack of the immediate danger and sadness of losing their Luna. They had lost their Alpha not long ago, it was indeed very sad to lose both their leaders at short span of time.

When the pack warriors heard the little girl's howl, they started in her direction with only a goal in mind, protect their Alpha's only heir. As Tristan heard the sound of paws coming in his direction, he took off, having accomplished his goal, bring sadness wherever he went, and it was like he disappeared into nothingness.

At Orion's side of the world, he was writhing in pain, holding his head, as his face has melted to the extent that he could barely see. He was rescued by his Pack warriors that patrols the woods, but not on time for the pack physician who was also a magician to reverse the magic that was done on him. He had no choice but to wear a mask over his head as his face was too hideous, even to him himself.

He became the one eyed man, scary as he had shut off his emotions enhancing his alpha powers making him attain the throne earlier than planned by the elders of the Pack. Orion attained the throne, in the throne room he set his throne to face backwards in such a way that whoever wants to speak to him can only see the back of his head. He became a merciless one- eyed alpha that barely let anyone in, no one, not even his family members and who ever break any rule he has set, it was straight death, no mercy! Every pack member began living in fear of him.

Although, Orion became merciless, he was just and he would never let anyone hurt his pack members, he protected them like he had nothing to lose. He somewhat became their hero. A merciless Hero. Alpha Orion earned himself the name 'One-Eyed Alpha', and his reputations truly preceded him.

On one side of the world, a woman held an orb similar to something used to check the future or the past. She saw what Tristan had done and knew how dangerous it would be to let someone like him roam the earth freely. She knew what she had to do and she needed to do it quickly. Get rid of the threat. Tristan.

Witches in the super-natural world are often grouped into covens. The Arrow Coven are a group of witches that receive prophesies of the future about witches and warlock whose power has the tendency of going out of hands or find it hard to control, they were in charge of taking the powers away as they seemed fit.

They had received a prophecy through their leader who had looked into the prophecy orb about a powerful warlock and an angry alpha- Tristan and Orion, and they had been keeping tabs on them with the thoughts that their job according to the gods was to get rid of anything threatening the balance of the universe. They had one goal in mind, killing the Alpha and the Warlock.

The moment Tristan got angry and used magic against his best friend, Orion, and when he killed a woman while leading a group of rogues with magic, the coven were notified of the mishap and terrified for the world if such evil were to be unleashed into it.

"It is time", Valerina, the coven leader and the woman who had seen the happenings from the orb announced to her fellow coven members.

"Yes, mistress", they bowed as a sign of respect to their coven leader. They filed out to begin on their murderous quest that they had total believe of completing in no time with no casualty whatsoever. Or so they thought.

The arrow coven ventured to Beacon Hills to kill the Alpha and the Warlock, they tried with the Alpha first, but it seems hard as he hadn't done anything untoward, he wasn't a saint, but he wasn't a tyrant either so they decided to leave him until he does something quite vile that death will be too inevitable for him.

So, they went after Tristan. They couldn't find him anywhere near Beacon Hills, they used their magic to cast a tracking spell that made them locate him in the nearest pack, the Velvet Moon Pack. They followed almost immediately.

It wasn't an easy task luring out a warlock as powerful as Tristan, but the Arrow Coven wasn't a force to recon with. Each of the witches in the coven was powerful enough all on their own, but together, they were unstoppable, they used that to their advantage and managed to lure Tristan out with no stress at all as they were very experienced in such task.

They stayed in circle when they began casting spell on Tristan that was in the middle, their spell rendering him powerless, he held his head in his hand feeling the heat of his magic being put inside a cage inside of him, the witches spell were working.

"You have sinned, and you shall be punished accordingly", the coven leader stepped into the circle with him, she spoke with the voice of thousand witches signifying how in tow she was with her ancestors as she addressed Tristan.

"morietur et putredo aeternum" Valerina casted the spell the moment she laid eyes on the warlock, leaving him defenseless as the spell took root immediately. Her command was to make Tristan die and rot in the underworld for all eternity.

A soul as powerful as Tristan's would not have stayed on the underworld for so long and knew that, that was why she used Rhy's Key, a powerful lock that has the power to keep a monster locked wherever it is used to all eternity. To rid the world of powerful and out of control warlock like Tristan, the key was used.

After being banished to the underworld, he was locked with Rhy's Key with the blood of the rarest thing in the world- a doppelganger; there was no means of escape for him unless someone was to sacrifice a doppelganger.

Meanwhile, the eight year old pup- Brianna, whose mother was mercilessly killed during Tristan's fit of anger when he led a group of rogue on her pack was taken in by the power hungry beta family. She was trained to become a Luna, but only to the beta, whose sole goal was to become an Alpha- leader of the pack.

Despite being a young girl, she was skeptical and hated the idea of being mated to someone like that, but there was nowhere else she could go, she had to endure and make it seem like she was going to go through with the beta's wretched plan.

She had freshly turned eighteen when everything became very hard for her, the beta called upon her to be the Luna at his side, but she refused.

"I will not mate with you", Brianna stood her ground against the greedy beta

"Yes, you will", Mason commanded while yelling at her more forcefully "You need a man to lead the pack, and I'm experienced, It's only right if I become the alpha and you become the Luna", he tried to reason with her, hoping she would fall for his façade. But, she didn't.

"I am an alpha myself, I can lead the pack till I find my mate and we will rule together", she replied, before Mason could talk back, she continued "You can be the wise beta who will guide me as I lead the pack, you know I value your opinion"

"No, I will be the alpha and you the Luna whether you like it or not", He shouted flailing his hands around like a kid whose parent told he won't be getting Christmas present.

"Take her away, lock her up until she agrees with me", Mason all but barked orders at the pack soldiers who has no choice but to listen to him as he has been the pack caretaker since the death of Brianna's parents.

"NO! You can't do this", Brianna tried to struggle, but it was no use. All her life she was not trained in combat like an alpha should be trained because of the beta's plan of making her nothing more than the Luna.

Cooped up in her room, Brianna knew there was no chance of escape for her in the plans of that beta; the only solution would be to run away from the pack. With that in mind, she formulated her own plans of running away by escaping through the window of her room where she considered home, but brought no homey feelings for her.

"It should be easy enough", she gave herself a pep-talk before putting her plans into action. "Okay, I've got this", she said with a deep breath.

Brianna couldn't be more grateful for being a prominent member of the pack, because it was easy for her to execute her plan while knowing how the security shift works around the pack land. There's always a shift in security personnel around 8:30 and 9:00 in the night, it was the perfect time to run away unnoticed.

It was as if Mason knew Brianna would pull a running stunt, he had people monitoring her secretly, and they notified him immediately she jumped from her room. She was cornered, so she ran for her life.

"Stop right there Brianna", Mason barked at her, but she refused to neither look back nor listen to his orders.

She ran like her life depended on it. It did depend on it in a way.
