I stared at myself in the mirror. Today was the day I would be announced as the new Alpha of the Dark Moon pack.
All my life I was trained to be the perfect Alpha just like my father. I was punished and beat until I was hardened into the man he was and still is. A man with no emotion a man with no weaknesses. I stare at my grey eyes seeing nothing but empty orbs.My mother didn't want me to be like him she wanted me to be kind and a loving Alpha my father laughed at that and slapped her across the face.
Never again did she question his training. He told me I needed to break others before they could break me.
Kill or be killed
Were his famous words that I now live by. I can't tell if I am proud of the man that I was shaped to be or disgusted. I stare in the mirror and don't recognize the person staring back at me.
Did I ever really know him?
"Eli its time" his says in harsh voice. The voice he has always used with me. Never once did he act like my father, no he was not my father but only my Alpha
I take one last glance at the unknown man and make my way to the clearing, to my future.I walk with my head held high, my chest puffed up. I pass by members of the pack one by one. Smelling their pride, their fear, and even their sour smell of jealousy.
I walk to the stone stage carved with our ancient tongue. Writings of prophecy's and traditions. I feel fear run through me but I hide it.I reach the stage and look to the crowd searching for her. I know she is here, I can feel her , smell her.Her pack came to witness their neighboring pack move to a new reign just like tradition has said it is made to be.
Her beautiful green eyes sparkle with the moons light, her skin glows, and her long black hair sways with the wind and just like that all the fear I held within is wiped away from a quick glance of my goddess.I look on to my pack to the people I will be responsible for, I had no say in this, I wasn't asked if I wanted to be Alpha It was expected of me and just like I always have I obeyed my father's command hoping maybe one day he will actually treat me as his son.
It went on for hours finally getting to the main part. He stood tall and looked on to his people.
"I renounce my name as Alpha and hereby give it to my first born Eli" He looks at me with an empty face. My heart clenches, I have succeeded and reached the position of Alpha just like he wanted me to yet he offers me no smile.The people around me howl into the night, they howl their pride and happiness to their moon.
I look to her and see she is staring at me with pride with a beautiful smile drawn across her face just like that I am no longer filled with sadness but with pride.
She has always been my rock, my savior when I thought I couldn't make it or take the pain from my father's very own hand she would appear and her eyes would fill with hate for him, and she would look at me with admiration.
She is the only reason I am still living
Breathing
She Is the only reason I live
I live for her
