Would someone stop that infernal racket!. My father's tired voice rang out from the living room. I wasn't surprised. The last few days had been hectic for everyone in our pack considering the fact that the annual Alpha's Summit was
being held in our pack this year.

Nobody had been able to blink an eye due to the preparations.

This event is really important because many unmated Alpha males were coming and as Alphas, they have the ability to choose their own mate regardless of their original mate destined for them by the moon goddess . This then makes their mates free from the impending mate bond. This therefore put almost all the pack members in a frenzy. Mothers spent so much on spa treatment for their daughters to make them look more presentable. I scoff at the thought because like my teacher once told me, " a decorated monkey is still a monkey " .

Apart from that, there are over 20,000 packs worldwide. Which means that we are expecting over 70,000 wolves. So imagine the amount of food going to be prepared. Due to the fact that there was no space for sleeping in the pack house, tents were provided for every representative of each pack . These preparations lasted the whole week.

Being the Alpha's first child is a big deal regardless of your sex. The only difference is that the male does the work of the alpha when he comes of age and the female does the work of the luna when she comes of age till the present alpha gets a mate or till she gets a mate. This helps to "prepare " them for their future duties according to my father. This then put me in charge of all activities taking place.

I am like the amazon of my pack and the fact that alpha's blood runs through my veins doesn't really help matters. If you sense my presence, you might confuse me for an alpha male. Where does this put me?, this put me at the top of the food chain. I am literally feared my fellow pack mates because they know that I'm not one to be challenged. I am often teased by my sister that my mate would be so scared of me to the point of rejection but I always flip her off.

It was the day that the summit began . It is a three day program. The first day is the actual boring paperwork. The second day is the mate hunting, and the third is the party.

I felt something annoying ringing in my ear. My stupid clock. It was the day and I was supposed to welcome the alphas coming. Talk about the pressure. I could already smell breakfast in the kitchen so I rushed downstairs to the kitchen to grab my share before my smelly older brothers got to it before I did.

"Good morning mom and dad", I greeted my parents whilst grabbing breakfast. And by the thundering of feet on the stairs, I can tell that my brothers are up.

"Good morning sunshine",my eldest brother Trevor , greeted me whilst ruffling my hair.


"Morning princess" , my elder brother Tyler greeted while attempting to steal my pancakes. Keyword here "attempting".

"Go get yours lazy bones", I say whilst hitting the back of his head.

"Ow, stop hitting me", he complains and I just hit him again.

"Darling, how are you holding up with your welcoming speech ". My mother, the current Luna asked me whilst dishing my brother's breakfast.


"Shit! I forgot ", I repeatedly hit my head on the table. I am such a mess, I totally forgot the most important, life changing aspect of this program for an upcoming Luna. The speech. Well, to a normal person, it would seem so unimportant but the thing unique about that speech is that whoever welcomes the alphas well to this summit to the moon goddess's satisfaction automatically gains all the loyalty and respect of the alphas whether they like it or not. How on earth am I supposed to impress the moon goddess, I'm only 19 for crying out loud.
