Things Happen while Time Passes

The Iron Pack~chapter 5

Gian

    "Do you have any information about my son? or something about what happened sixteen years ago?"

     "I'm sorry Alpha, but I only got this. Sixteen years is quiet a long time for scavaging informations about your son after our pack being attacked." Lance my third in command, said while giving me an envelop.

     "It's okay as long as I have some information I can hold unto. Thank you Lance it's good having your back. Specially, in this kind of times."

      "My loyalty will always be with your side, and remember I'm also your friend, Alpha." he replied, before turning around and leaving the office.

       Right after he left, I opened up the envelop he handed me. Some documents written in it that some of the pack members saw our omega Celeste with a new born babe. Wrapped with a dirty white baby blanket. I can still remember when

     'Someone from our pack mind linked me that they saw Celeste running into the woods with a baby, suspecting it's ours. Gavin, my beta also told me that random pack warriors saw Celeste fought some rouges near the woods, but they didn't saw a baby with her. After the attack I sent some of my people to find Celeste and my son, to my surprise they failed. They found Celeste dead, or should I say killed by the rouges who attacked us. The worst part there is they didn't see my son or any traces of him. All of my trackers and any pack members who are able, helped finding him. The fact that he's just a new born baby, his scent is still developing another is that after the attack, heavy rain poured down. Clearing all the scents in the air. Making it impossible to have my son tracked even by the best tracker in our pack.'

       I only have two reasons to cling into my hope that my son is stil alive out there: The rouges need him, because my blood run through his veins or someone took him and adopted him in the human society. But there is one thing I'm sure of. I'm going to find my son, as I lead this pack and stay strong. I'm not gonna let my pack or my mate suffer the same thing sixteen years ago. Never.

   It's all my fault. If I was able to handle myself and not passing out after I gave birth. If I was able to protect my son, our pack from the attack, then my mate will not suffer like this. He will not be tormented like this for the passed sixteen years.

     "Goodmorning, Luna." one of our warriors greeted me. I just gave him a smile in return, before I walk pass him.

      I might want to go for shopping this day. I don't want this day to be wasted, you know. Or have a run but not around the border. Our teritorry is quiet enormous. And it's covering two towns already, which means we are also living close to humans. But I don't see it as a problem anyways. Humans are not that dangerous, like we are to them.Considering our number agaisnt them, they're no match. We are seven hundred fifty plus compairing to them only five hundred give or take. Besides its easy to blend in with them.

    Our pack house is located a mile away between the two towns. So I need to use a car, well that won't be a problem. I can always have my mate's car. Convincing myself that I have to stop sulking and pitying myself from losing a son, is pretty hard. But it's true, even if I sulk there in our room or at the nursery room, I won't find my son. My husband can't do this alone, he needs me. So I'm going to start socializing. I mind linked my friend, Nadia.

    She's also our pack doctor.She's the one who assisted me in giving birth. She's one of my comforter during those times that I lost him. She's also a warrior and that stood beside me during the fight.

   'Hello Nadia? How are you?'

    'Should I be the one asking you with that thing first? Why? Whats wrong is your depressing mood starting again?'

    'Nope, I actually want to get over it. So mind if you want to join me let's go shopping, -like what we always do couple of years ago- my treat.'

    'Yeah! no prob.'

     'I'll pick you up okay? I'm on my way.'

     'Yeah okay.'

  So I jumped inside the car mind linking Gian.

    'Hey, mind if I borrow your car? Nadia and I are shopping.'

    'Yup, that's fine with me. Enjoy honey, I'll see you after you go shopping okay?'

    'Okay, thanks.'

   I got to admit I missed this. Before that nymph came to me and offer me something.

  •°It was my fifteenth birthday when my dad -who was the alpha of our pack- announced me as the next their next alpha. Even though I was a girl my dad trusted me with the whole, just as the whole trusted my dad giving the position to me. My dad love me because I'm his only child and I grew up like him. Bearing the alpha blood, makes me more different from others girls. I'm stronger than them that even our pack warriors can't beat me whether in human or wolf form. I have shifted earlier than them and doesn't hurt me. Normal wolves would have their first shifting at the age of nine. But I'm different I shifted at the age of four surprisingly the pack would expect that I would let an ear piercing howl. But I didn't.

   That night my dad held a party for me, that nymph, came to me and told me that she have a gift for me, but more like a curse if I have known what gift she's going to give me. But before that she asked me,

     "Do you want it or not?" of course I accepted it, as young and lovely girl who doesn't know anything.

     "Alright then, you will have a mate who is stronger than you. He is also an aplha. Which means your pack will be the strongest. And you will meet him tonight."

     "Really? Thank you." I replied gladly, and was about to leave.

     "But darling, everything comes with a price..."

     "What is it?"

      "Once you bear your first child, it will siphone all the strength of your pack members including you. You will become very weak to point that you won't be capable of giving birth, unless you will be taken care very well. Your strength will only return once your son is one year old or killed."

     "Why? Does it also include my mate?"

     "No he will be the only one left strong in your pack."

     "But what if I don't bear a child?"

     "You won't, you and your mate are the most powerful wolf that has ever meet and you lead strong packs. You'll need a heir."

   I was left hanging. I can't process it all at once. Am I dreaming? I hope I am. When I was about to ask her something I realised she's gone. I decided to find and turned around when I bumped into someone.

   His scent enthratlled me, a sweet smell of fresh cut grass and mint.

   "Hey, I'm sorry are you okay?"

    "Yeah I'm fine," I repliead as I can feel my heart goin' crazy.

   "I followed your scent, because it is so strong and I believe I have found my..."

    "...mate!" I cut him off with excitement and sadness.

    "I'm Gian by the way, next in line alpha of the Howling Knight Pack." he said as he extends his arms.

    "I'm Reese, future alpha of this pack." I replied, as I shake my hands to his.

    Wait did he said Howling Knight Pack? It's happening. That pack is known to be the 'Iron pack' no other packs nor rouges have succeeded attacking that pack since it was founded.°•
