I Am The Lycan’s Luna

••• Kyson’s POV •••

“Tomorrow night,” Aleena echoed Colton’s words decisively.

I let out a heavy sigh. There was no way for me to refuse, with everyone on board with the idea of meeting the Alpha King as soon as possible. As Lucas trusted his mate, I should trust my mate, too.

I opened my mouth to ask them if they were sure about it again but was interrupted by a mindlink.

“Alpha, Beta Greg, and Gamma Luis of the Black Heart Pack are here to talk to you about the plan for their pack,” Liam said through our mindlink.

“Bring them in,” I told him and closed the mindlink.

I swallowed my previous question for those in my study and instead said, “We’ll continue this later. The representatives of Black Heart Pack are here. They want to talk about their pack.”

I saw Lucas and Colton stand up to leave, but I stopped them. “Stay. It shouldn’t take long. Then we can continue discussing our plans.”

It would be best to talk and solidify our plans as fast as possible if everyone was adamant about leaving tomorrow.

Moments later, I heard the door being knocked before it was opened, and I saw Luis, the late Gamma’s son, and also another man; the man whom I had come to hate – Greg, Aleena’s first love.

“Alpha Kyson, Luna Aleena, we are here to talk about merging our pack with the Crimson Blood Pack,” Greg was the one who spoke up first.

I saw Aleena’s eyes widen, and her mouth hung open. She turned toward me with shock and disbelief in her eyes. Pulling her to me, I kissed her lips passionately. Partly because she looked cute, partly to show Greg she was mine.

“Why are you shocked? Did you think our pack is not strong enough to be wanted by an Alphaless pack?” I asked her after I pulled back from our kiss. “Or did you think your mate is not good enough to be chosen by them?” I added and especially emphasized the words ‘your mate’.

“No, I was just surprised. I thought they’d choose a new Alpha and Luna,” she said with a flushed face.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Oh, come on, guys. We have guests here, and you act lovey-dovey,” I heard Colton say, and I could feel him rolling his eyes.

“This is our pack, and he’s my mate. We can do anything we want freely,” Aleena defended.

I let out a light chuckle and turned to look at Greg and Luis, who were still standing awkwardly.

“Sit,” I commanded, and they obeyed.

It was expected that they might want to merge with other packs, but I was a little surprised that they chose my pack.

“Are you not going to choose a new Alpha and Luna?” I asked.

“No. We’ve talked to all the Black Heart Pack members, and they all have similar thoughts – no one is good enough to be the new Alpha,” Greg said.

“And thus, we decided to choose the Crimson Blood Pack, as your pack is the strongest in this country now,” Luis added.

“I’m sorry, but I have to turn you down,” I told them calmly.

Aleena looked at me with disappointment, and I had in mind to punish her for caring too much about another pack.

“Ordinary werewolves can’t stand Lycan’s blood. My blood is poisonous to you all,” I explained more for Aleena’s sake than to those two guests. I couldn’t stand her looking so disappointed in me. And as I had expected, the disappointed look on her face vanished in an instant.

“Does… Does that mean Al… Luna Aleena can’t be our Alpha, too?” Greg said.

My head snapped toward him. Is he serious? From the way he looks, he is being serious, albeit awkward.

“We were hoping Luna Aleena to be our new Alpha if Alpha Kyson wouldn’t take us in,” Luis said earnestly.

“You… You want me to be your Alpha?” Aleena asked in disbelief. She wasn’t the only one not believing it. Colton’s mouth was hanging open so wide he might as well have dislocated his jaws, while Lucas and I were better at disguising our shock.

“Yes.” Luis nodded seriously.

There was never a case of a Luna of a pack having another identity as an Alpha of another pack. It was unheard of. I looked at Aleena, and I could see that she was conflicted. She must want it.

“Do you want to, Aleena?” I asked her. If she wants it, I’ll give it to her even if I hate for her to be in touch with her first love.

“I’m a Lycan too. My blood will be poisonous to them,” she said dejectedly.

“That might not be the case,” Witch Lily suddenly chimed in.

We all looked at her in surprise.

“Aleena is not fully Lycan,” she said softly.

“She’s a hybrid,” Night reminded me.

Oh, that’s right. “But she still has Lycan blood. Wouldn’t it be dangerous?” I asked Witch Lily.

“It’s not. It’s possible for her to be an Alpha,” Witch Lily replied.

I turned to look at Greg and Luis. “Go back first. We need to discuss this with our pack members. We’ll go to your pack later on when we have made our decision.”

They nodded in understanding and left the pack.

“Do you want the position, Aleena?” I asked her again.

“I want to help them,” she said.

I had no qualms about her being both an Alpha and Luna except for her being in close proximity to Greg. I knew she would be able to do both duties well.

“It’s settled then. We’ll meet the pack members and ask them their opinions,” I said, mindlinking all my members to gather on the meeting ground.

“Let’s go!” Colton, an outsider, was the most excited about this.

I rolled my eyes at him. “You are an outsider. Why are you so confident that I’ll allow you to attend our meeting?”

“Because I’m your best friend, and Aleena will let me attend it even if you don’t,” he replied smugly.

“Of course, you can attend the meeting. You are both an Alpha and Luna. I can learn from you,” Aleena grinned at him before I could retort back.

Colton gave me another smug look, and I sighed in defeat.

We walked to the meeting ground and saw all the lack members had arrived. I pulled Aleena toward the podium and looked at the crowd.

“I’m here to ask you about merging our pack and the Black Heart Pack,” I began saying. “They all have known the truth and want your Luna to be their Alpha.”

The crowd burst into an uproar when they heard my words.

“I… I think Luna Aleena will be able to do a great job,” one of the pack members said, voices rising amongst the others.

After that, one voice, the rest followed. They all agreed to let Aleena be an Alpha.

Seeing them in agreement, I told them about my plan. “The two packs will be combined. I’ve chosen the forest next to the Black Heart Pack for our new location. We will relocate there, but I will need you to work together to build our new location. Anyone disagrees?”

The crowd shook their heads, and I could feel their excitement in the air. Our current location was not really ideal as we were too high up in the mountains, so I knew they would be happy to relocate. It’d also be easier to manage the two packs.

“Alright. You are all dismissed. I’ll let you know of any developments,” I told them, and they all dispersed.

I turned toward Aleena, Colton, Lucas, and Witch Lily. “Let’s go to the Black Heart Pack and get this over and done with.”

“Wait!” Aleena said.

We all looked at her and waited for her to speak her mind.

“We are going to fight the Alpha King. What if I don’t come back alive?” she asked.

Her words silenced us all. She had a point. What if the Alpha King decided to kill us?

“We won’t die,” Colton said with confidence.

“He’s right. We won’t die,” Witch Lily said. “This is a great move for Aleena. Trust me.”

With a witch saying those words confidently, there was nothing we could do other than believe in her.

“Okay. Let’s go to the Black Heart Pack then,” Aleena said and pulled me toward our car.

Lucas and Colton took their car while Witch Lily came with us. We sped along the way and arrived in no time.

“Alpha Kyson, Luna Aleena,” Greg greeted us when we arrived. It seemed they had anticipated our arrival.

“Lead us to the meeting ground,” I told him without delay.

“I have mind-linked all the pack members, and they should have gathered there by now,” he said as we walked toward the meeting ground.

We just nodded in response. I circled my arm around Aleena’s shoulders and pulled her close to me. “Don’t be nervous,” I told her. “You can do this.”

She looked at me and gave me a sweet smile in gratitude. “I’m thankful you are my mate.”

“I’ll support you no matter what you wanna do,” I told her.

Just as I told her those words, Greg stopped before an opened door and gestured for us to go in. We stepped in and saw the pack members gathered there, just as Greg had told us.

I went straight up to the podium with Aleena and faced the crowd.

“I have decided to become your new Alpha,” Aleena said to the crowd, and we could hear their excited murmurs.

“Even though I’m your new Alpha, I’m still the Crimson Blood Pack’s Luna. Since Alpha Kyson is my mate, he will indirectly be your Alpha, too,” she continued and stopped to sweep her gaze across the crowd, giving them time to speak up if they disagreed with her words.

Seeing no one disagreed with her, she spoke again, “But I want to change the pack’s name.”

Her words were met with silence.
