Xander's Past
The only difference between
the saint and the sinner is that
every saint has a past,
and every sinner has a future.
~Oscar Wilde
Xander's POV:
Last night was unexpected. After what i was forced to do, the thing i never wanted to, i thought i had lost my mate. Yes indeed I was known to be ruthless, heartless and adamant. But I was not the Alpha that I showed. My heart and my wolf knew I was a benevolent, cared about my pack and specially loved my mate. Valerie was the purest soul that Moon goddess was kind enough to gift me with. Even after knowing that I was engaged to Stacy, she did not reject me. Instead she worked hard to find her position in the pack. But the scream when she saw me lashing the rogue with silver coated whip made my heart shatter into pieces. I was not a monster. I am not a monster. I was made a monster.

Birth
"Your son will be the reason of your downfall" the witch said. "No!! My own blood can never betray me!!" Gerald Nero screamed with fury. The witch calmly watched the outburst. "Your mate has more influence in your unborn son than you will ever have in your lifetime!" she said picking her nails. "Woman!!" Gerald Nero charged at her. Crack. The witch was gone. Nero howled.
"Alpha you are back! Luna has gone under labour" the pack doctor said. Nero clenched his fist. He walked towards his mate. A loud cry from mother was followed by a shrill cry of the child. "Alpha your son" the lady handed him the baby. Nero looked at the boy and looked at his mate. "Keep the child away from the mother" he ordered the midwife.
Age 12
"Xander fight! You can never be an Alpha if you don't fight." Blood was oozing out of little Xander's arms and legs. He was fighting after all a grown up wolf who was a pack patrol guard. "Get up you pathetic pup! You are worthless like your mother" his father shouted. Xander had tears in his eyes and somehow got up. A strong punch from the opponent sent him flying against the tree.
"Pathetic. You will never be the Alpha. Don't let anyone touch him! Let him bleed to death." and with that poor Xander lay under the dark sky crying and slowly healing. Xander was nearly asleep when he felt two soft hands touch him. He looked up to see his mother crying and hugging him. Beside her stood Orien. The guards around lay on the ground. "Take him away Luna. I will take care of the rest" he said.
Age 17
"Whip him harder! Harder!" shouted the Alpha. Xander did not scream. He had lost the ability to show any emotion by then. The man in front of him was not his father. His father was long dead. This man was a monster. The hunter dropped his whip. "It is not enough" he said. "Give me a knife" he shouted. Taking it he pierced it right into the Xander's thigh. Xander howled.
"When I say that you may not talk to that woman I mean YOU WILL NOT TALK TO HER!" Alpha shouted. "She is my mother" Xander whispered. "She is nothing but a burden. I cannot kill her because the pack will not consider it a good act and maybe that Oracle may strip me out of my title. But you! If you care about her so much STAY AWAY FROM HER". Xander closed his eyes. Savouring the pain. The silver wounds did not heal soon. "Leave him now". Hunter nodded and walked away.
"Freeze him." Alpha ordered the warriors. They froze Xander's body. "Don't let anyone enter" and with this Alpha walked away.
Age 20
"This is Stella. You will be engaged to her tomorrow at your coronation" Gerald said. Xander nodded. "But you don't even know her!" Marie said. "I don't need to know her" Xander replied and walked away. Gerald smiled. His son was perfectly shaped like he had always wanted. The old council meeting would be held soon, and very soon he would be elected as their supervisor. The witch lied to him. No one could defeat him. His policies, his rules will make the werewolf community better and then he would easily defeat the originals.
******~~~~~~~~~~~~~******
Orien was busy making the antidote for silver burns. He knew that Valerie would need it if she plans to save the rogue which she will no doubt. A knock broke his thought. Philip entered. "You have letter from the Oracle and don't say anything about the letter to Luna" . "Why?" Orien asked. "She might want to join you. So the messenger said it was specifically for you". "Alright. Thank you!" Philip nodded and left.
"Valerie may I have Timothy for a day please" Orien said. "Why Orien? "Valerie asked confused. "I am working on a new potion and I have read that it can be found only by the phoenix" Orien said without blinking his eyes. "Alright! But do give me that anidote for silver burns before you go. I might have come up with a plan" Valerie said with a smirk. Orien nodded. The oracle certainly knew how to make a man lie, thought Orien.
