Mine
Chapter 54

Roy was fuming with anger. His wolf slowly taking over. He had feared something bad hadhappened to his mate due to his negligence, his wolf could feel it too. He had imagined she wouldneed medical attention after passing out last night. He even imagined the worse scenario, whichwas her going into a coma, since she was human. But never did he imagine that he'd replace his cousin,Elijah, on his bedroom floor unconscious, in his own pool of blood, with his mate no where in sight.His anxiousness didn’t let him pick up the all too familiar scent in his bedroom at first, but now thathe knew why his wolf was restless did he perceive that bastard’s scent in his bedroom. He turnedinto a half shift and ran out of the room with only one intent in mind, and that was to kill Hugh. Hewas stopped halfway into his journey by his uncle, who tackled him to the ground.

"Don't go like this. You're not prepared” Alan said to him.

“Let me go. You're letting him get away” he growled

"Going like this will only make you fight blindly”

“I. Said. Let. Me. Go” Roy said through gritted teeth, internally fighting with his wolf that was readyto tear his uncle apart.

“Roy, I can't let you go like this”

Alan's statement infuriated Roy's wolf, causing it to completely take over. He bit Alan's neck andthrew him off his body.

“I AM YOUR ALPHA AND I EXPECT YOU TO OBEY ME!" Roy yelled in his alpha voice.

Christine stood in the corner, watching in horror the confrontation going on between Roy and hermate, not planning on saying anything so she doesn't upset her Alpha even more.

Roy resumed his journey out of his house, but was again stopped, this time by Alan's voice.

“I know that perfectly well, Roy, but I'm also your uncle, so I know what's best for you. If you walkout that door in this state, you'll only end up getting yourself killed, thereby handing your mate toHugh on a platter of gold... Believe me, Roy, that's what he wants”

Alan's statement made Roy halt in his steps, internally fighting with his raging wolf, whether or notto listen to his uncle.

"We both know he wouldn't touch a single hair on her head" his uncle continued

In that moment, Roy came to the realization that Alan was right. He wouldn't hurt Kimberly. Hewould rather die than lay a finger on her.

“I know you're hurt, and so am I... I can as well run off to the white moon pack and challenge Hughfor laying his finger on my son, but that's not how things are done”

Roy was now glaring at his uncle. If looks could kill, Alan would probably be six feet under by now.Alan knew what he was doing was wrong. Telling an alpha how to run his affairs was so wrong,especially when it had to do with their mate, but he was willing to take that risk because he didn'twant to lose his nephew. He had made a promise to Roy's father, his previous alpha, that he wouldtake good care of his son and guide him in becoming a great alpha.

“Roy. This is your chance to take what is rightfully yours”

“Is that what this is about?” Roy growled

“No. But you can use this as a perfect opportunity to regain control over this region... as it ought tobe”

Alan didn't care if Roy thought of him as selfish. It was high time they got everything back tonormal, like they used to be. He was already tired of the things, Hugh and the three alphas beforehim has done to the once happy pack. Roy knew exactly what his uncle was talking about.

Four generations before him, during the time of his great- great grand father, Sebastian, the whitemoon pack and the blue moon pack used to be one, known as Moon pack. Sebastian and his matehad twin boys, Jason and Mason. It was settled between the then alpha and his advisers, that thefirst born twin, Jason, would be the next alpha.

As years went by, he trained both of his sons to be strong werewolves, but he concentrated moreon Jason, who he was preparing to become the next alpha, not realizing the growing jealousy in hissecond son.

When Sebastian's sons turned twenty, he decided it was time for him to retire as alpha. Unknown tohim and most members of the pack, Mason had a plan of his own.

On the day of the ceremony, Mason led a rebellion against his twin brother, accusing his father ofmaking Jason alpha because he was his favorite son and not because he deserved it. He swore thathe'd rather die than watch his brother become the alpha. This angered Sebastian, who always knewthat Mason was the irrational one of the two. Jason tried to talk his brother out of his madness,letting him know that he was disrespecting their father, but Mason wouldn't hear any of it. He wasquite confident of his actions because he had the support of some of the advisers and packmembers. He let his pride take over and challenged his father to a duel, to the surprise of allpresent.

Jason couldn't take any more of his brother's madness, so he accepted the challenge on his father'sbehalf. The pack watched in fear as both werewolves fought. Mason, filled with hatred and rage wasabout to take his brother's life, but his father, Sebastian, stopped him before he could go throughwith such outrageous act.

Rather than lose his son, Sebastian had to make a tough decision. Since Mason wanted to be analpha, he would make him an alpha, but not at the expense of his other son. So, Sebastianseparated the Moon pack into two equal parts, giving the second half to Mason, to prevent a warfrom breaking out.

Jason tried to stop his father, but Sebastian ignored him, telling him he was doing it for his owngood because, Mason already had some advisers on his side and he didn’t want them conspiringagainst his son in the future.

Jason reluctantly accepted his dad's decision, but he made a promise to his father, that he wouldmake the pack one again, even if it was the last thing he did before his death, but that neverhappened.

For years, wars broke out between the two packs that used to be the biggest and strongest pack inAmerica, until two generations after when a peace pact was signed between both packs, to end thewar and to never step foot in each other's territory, except for official reasons. But, Hugh broke thatpact some weeks ago and went as far as killing two members of the blue moon pack.

Roy's thoughts was in a mess. He was thinking about his pack members that were killed, then hismate, Kimberly, who was currently kidnapped and now he has to think of a bloody war?

Well, either way, this war was bound to happen, but he never imagined it would happen during hislifetime.

His uncle is right. He needs to make use of the opportunity and take back what rightfully belongs tohim, which was long overdue.

With that final conviction, Roy looked his uncle straight in the eye and said

“What's the plan?”
