Chapter 33
The moon at its highest shines through the house filling all the rooms with its silver light the moon goddess blessing my taking on the title of alpha. The dagger slowly glows under the light soaking in our blood as the sliver and black metal start to glow. The light and blood are slowly absorbing int to the dagger. Hudson's eyes now glowing with the same light filling the packhouse den. Every wolf in the dining hall's eyes starts to glow the same silver. The lights slowly go out in the room as the light recedes to the dagger leaving bright shining silver eyes in the dark. The dagger glows brightener as it takes in more light. All the light in the room goes out leaving the dagger glowing and the silver eyes of every wolf in the room. I watch as the dagger lifts from the platter hovering just in front of me and my team. The eyes start to disappear as wolves bow their heads to us. The dagger points to us and beams of light burst from it landing on our chests. The heat from the light soaks deep into me as I feel the light work its way through my body.
As the eyes disappear the heat from the light gets hotter. The dagger dims as the light bleeds into us. The dagger drops to Hudson's hands as the last of the light leaves it falling on us. The heat flows through my whole body heating as my body changes from the pup I was to the alpha I need to be. The power now flowing through my veins increase my strength and power. I feel myself locking into the land and everything around it. The wolves in the pack raise their palms slicing them and squeezing them shut into a fist. Turing them so the blood drops from their fist to the ground. Linking them to the land and me. The light feeling of the last of the bonds snaps into place and bursts from me spreading over everyone in a warm blanket. Fill the room with the soft glow of our lights as the room settles. A hush is set over us all as we breathe in our new bonds and scents. Hudson turns to the room “I give you delta hunter, “ hunter steps forward “gamma Kavin” again he steps forward “beta Tyler and your new alpha Philip.” stepping forward we all bow our heads to the pack. The only time we will bow to them and its to say thank you for putting your trust in us. Rising our heads the pack bows to us in return.
“time to break bread before we run as a pack.” with that the room breaks out in cheers as a few pups sing their hunger. We all take our seats and take our seats. We all laugh and start our meals. Halfway through dinner, my father stands up “good evening everyone. Today is one of my proudest days. Handing over the alphahood to Philip and watching you all embrace him a father couldn't ask for more. As you all know I took over the pack before we had planned. And I have not regretted a moment of it. I love every one of you but I am tired of seeing your faces so tonight I will be heading out on a small vacation giving Philip complete control and keeping me from hovering. John Kyle wade and their mates will be going with me. I know it's not the best time to leave but I do leave you in some great hands.” the room cheers and claps. The more I think over what he is saying and it's clear he's telling us all that he believes in me so much he doesn't need to be around to watch over and help guide me. Pride swells in my chest.
At the end of the meal, I stand and a hush falls over the room. “Ambrose has prepared one of the rec floors to mimic our lands so we can have a pack run in the safety of our home. So as normally we would leave a few wolves in the den to watch over the pups we get to take this opportunity to have every member of the pack out and join in the pack run. Once we are finished please make your way to “ stopping as I didn’t ask Ambrose what floor he prepared. Looking at Ambrose he chuckles “third floor on the school wing.” he sings out for everyone to hear. We all nod and finish our plates. Standing we all look around noticing the dishes we all grab our plates heading to the kitchen. When my plate vanishes I look around along with everyone else. “I thought for this one time only I would save you the time of cleaning up.” Ambrose bellowed out as the room cleaned and cleaned up. The squeals of the younger pups at the display of magic in the dining hall had us all laughing.
An angel-like tiny voice calls out from the crowd. “that's my uncle I told you he's bigger than your uncle.” the little girl yells pointing at Tyler. We all start laughing as the little monster rushes the stage. Ty scoops her up tickling her little tummy. Her giggles fill the room. A little boy soon follows stopping in front of us “are you Jazzy’s uncle” he asks in awe. “that I am little man and what's your name?” Ty smiles at him. The wonder and awe in his eyes shine bright. A young she-wolf hurries us. “I am johnny but mama calls me damn it stop that.” causing us to snort our barking laughter as her cheeks turn red. “I remember when that was my name, little guy.” I chuckle at him. Skylar and her mate make it to the front of the room with their other pup. Looking over at the young she-wolf “does this strong warrior belong to you?” she nods as she reaches for him. He ignores her “I am bigger than jazzy and stronger. See?” as he flexes his arms making a grunting noise. “woo there keep that up and you gonna give me a run for my money.” he starts giggling when Ambrose elbows me in the ribs.
“spell that big I can only hold for a short time.” nodding I look out at the pack “didn’t someone say pack runs?” howls fill the room as they start heading to the stairs and elevators.
