Chapter Announcing the alpha
Jefferson POV.
I relaxed a bit while trying to keep, I felt so much pain, the pain was excruciating, then after some time, it followed with chants and echoes, I felt so much power exuding from me, it felt so unreal.
I shot my eyes open, Only to see Roseline was looking at me with nothing but admiration in her gaze, it made me want to be close to her, and kissed her right there and then. "You look beautiful" I muttered underneath my breath, feeling a little bit more relaxed.
After fifteen minutes, the pack of Elders stopped in their actions before Ariel said.
"We shall now organize a party in the prospect of our new alpha".
I wondered how I was able to know their names All of a sudden, I know I became a family of this pack, not Long ago, and knowing Their names were not on my bucket list. "We now introduced the new alpha," the old sage said, cocked a brow at me, And smiled.
I also Smiled, then everyone bowed including my mate, I felt so much power and the need to safeguard these people, I don't want anything to happen to them and I was ready to go beyond my limits, in other to see that I'm able to safeguard them.
After some time, my heart swells with different Emotions, knowing full well that things won't longer be the same.
It was already evening and people were gathered around the bonfire, which served as a light in the dimly lit forest, the few houses that were in the forest were what Made up our pack.
After knowing more individuals, I felt a bond with the pack, I felt my wolf side so was my dragon side, they were both dominant.
Eric the pack sage stood up while raising a cup filled with red wine and started, his hand was shaking due to old age. I smiled at my mate who was beside me, she made me feel whole and complete, I don't know how to explain this emotion. "We once lost an alpha, someone, who went astray, allowing evil to consume him, but today we have found a new alpha, let's all welcome Jefferson as our new leader".
Immediately erupted murmurs echoed, they filled the cold air and made me feel uneasy.
Then someone stood up, in response to Their disapproval on the issue of me, being the next Alpha.
"His scent.... it's clear enough that he's a dragon".
"And also a wolf" the sage which is Eric interjected.
"But you know we have sworn enemies with dragons because they are prideful and they have destroyed many packs " he countered back, I stared at him, I know he is right, but I felt the responsibility to do things that the pack never had and never even thought of doing.
"You think I wanted this, but I was instructed by the moon goddess to do this" Eric said, I was shocked by his words, I thought they all wanted me as Their alpha, unbeknownst to me that they were following the instructions of the moon goddess, I could barely keep my shock expression at bay. I was raging in anger, I then felt the soft hand of Rose, she comforted me in a way I never thought possible, I drew in a deep breath while trying to calm myself down, I don't want to do anything that I might later regret.
"I believe he would be a great alpha and legend, so please don't make situations even worse than they already were, now we have countless external attacks on the pack, and All because we were not having an alpha and now that we have one, I want to assure you that everything would be alright" Aiden voice out, immediately there was pin drop silence, I smiled at his words, I don't know why he wanted me, so I immediately turned to Roseline and asked, his role in the of the pack.
"He is the Delta of the of the pack" she informed, I nodded in understanding, I need to choose the Members who will be beside me all the time, in case I need pack advice because all these seem new to me.
I then stood up, without saying a word, everyone was looking at me expectantly, I adjusted my throat while looking at everyone, and they all looked at me waiting for me to say what I have in mind. "I know you are still doubting to make me your alpha, if I was in your position I'll have done the same..." I pursued, making sure that everyone have complete attention to me.
"If I was in your position, I'll have done worse, even though I don't know the hatred lurking between wolves and dragon, I think I'll also find it hard to trust a past enemy, Because the hatred was there, I think even right before I was born, but I want to assure you that, I'll make things right, the moon goddess saw a Great potential in me. it's okay to doubt me, but I want to tell you that I'm surrendering my life solely to this pack, I'll be serving the pack and all I have got. this is not an empty promise, but this is the promise of a man who's ready to do anything for the pack who raised my mate and brought her to me" I said, while trying to enclose the burning rage in me, I'll make sure I take revenge on anyone who took part on maltreating my mate and making her suffer.
Immediately loud cheers and applause erupted, then took the red wine before I raised in it the air.
"Cheers to the blue moon pack" I cheered before I emptied the cup and everyone also did the same.
"Before we continue with the party, I'll be glad to announce to you that, Aiden would now be my Right hand Delta while Arial, I'll want you to be my Delta" immediately people erupted in another applauding session.
Then I heard a voice echo, it was a familiar voice.
"Very soon... very soon".
