Noble Alpha
In the late hours of night. They all gathered under the crescent moon on a cliff. The Omega’s pack swung tree branches and jumped around all high and mighty. Xander’s pack maintained their stance on the ground. Drew, the Alpha of the other pack stared at Xander with utter disdain in his eyes.
A beta made a flip off a branch and welcomed his Alpha, “And here’s the strong, brave and high esteemed Drew of the Omega Pack,” he spoke every word a light intensity.
Xander and the others spread around to interact.
“What happened to your man face,” an Omega wolf asked Jackson.
“Bug Off,” he shrugged the Omega wolf.
“Sheesh just tryna have a convo bro,” he said.
Drew and Xander walked met at the edge of the cliff.
“You’ve had a shave,” Xander teased. “Looks good on you.”
“I don’t come bearing jokes,” Drew said with a stern face.
Xander stood at ease and folded his arms, “I guess we have issues to sort out then.”
“You are murderous Alpha,” Drew stated pointing his finger at Xander’s chest.
“You come here with an accusation,” Xander said. ‘You’ve got something on your mind Drew?!”
They both growled and had a change of color in their eyes. Their fingernails grew longer, and they were about to wolf out any minute. Their packs got alerted and gathered around their Alphas.
“Leave us!” Xander ordered his pack.
“And leave you alone with them?” One of his betas asked.
“This dude got grass in his ears,” An Omega wolf teased.
Jackson recognized the wolf from earlier. Faye saw the rage in his eyes, “Stand back Jackson,” she ordered.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Oouu Freddie Krueger is feisty,” the omega wolf laughed.
Jackson charged at him. The Omega wolf was weaker, Jackson tore into the wolf’s ribcage. He ripped him open, revealing his entrails while in his clawed human form.
An omega wolf transformed and attacked Faye. She dodged the attack. The two packs charged at each other. Xander and Drew observed themselves in the outburst on the cliff. Who was gonna attack first?
Xander growled at the latter.
“Come at me Drew!”
Drew jumped into the air and came down at Xander. Xander defended the attack.
“You are not who I thought you were Xander,” Drew said.
“Save the talk and face me like an Alpha,” Xander said.
Blood from two wolves going against each other splattered on Xander’s face. He wiped the stain of his face and Drew had vanished.
“Show your face Drew,” Xander called.
He came up from behind Xander, jabbing him at the back of his neck. Xander tumbles on the ground and stops at the edge of the cliff.
Faye saw Xander down on his back and Drew standing over him. She rushed to his side, kicked Drew back in his chest.
“If anyone’s gonna kill you it’s me,” she smiled at Xander.
Xander got back to his feet. Drew withdraws.
“Alpha back stand down,” Xander ordered.
Jackson grabbed threw an omega off the cliff when he heard the call
“Understood,” the beta said.
Drew and his pack gathered and fell back. Xander approached them.
“Faye take the pack and leave,” Xander instructed.
Faye stood in his way, “what are you doing Xander?”
Xander growled immensely. The message was passed.
“Alpha pack, move out!” Faye ordered.
Faye and the others dispersed, leaving Drew and his pack surrounding Xander.
“Why send them away, you’ve got something to hide from your pack? Drew asked blatantly. “I thought so too.”
Xander stood gallant as the noble Alpha he was.
Drew came up close and said in his ear, “You killed my daughter,” he groaned. “You’ll pay for it.”
Above them in the trees, Faye maintained her stealth eavesdropping on the two Alphas.
Drew was always hot-blooded, but this time he kept his cool, “You don’t want to admit it do you… I will come for you and take down your world all around you,” Drew threatened.
Xander wasn’t intimidated. He caught sight of Faye leaping of the tree.
“Let’s go boys,” Drew whistled.
They all left, running around and howling maniacally in the wood.
“Did you do it?” Faye said coming out of the shadows.
Xander walked past her and remained unresponsive.
“The pack will leave you, you know,” She snarled. “They will go against you when they find out.”
He looked over his shoulder, “Believe what you may,” he said.

On the balcony, Xander stared blank at the blue skies. Catherine was smiling bright in the daylight next to him.
“What’s got you smiling?” he asked teasingly
“Nothing,” She said. “I just chose to not turn my smile upside like the rest of you.”
“Funny you say that schoolgirl,” he laughed. “How are the classes coming anyway?”
She was glad he asked, “I just concluded a thesis on climate change-
“You’ve been avoiding me all day Xander,” Faye interjected.
Catherine looked confused, “Xander?”
“You killed your mate and made her-this puny human… your Luna,” she grinned. “When it should have been me.”
“What is it with you Faye?” Xander asked angrily. “Leave now!”
“I guess I’ll go tell the pack all about last night’s fallout,” She threatened.
Catherine held Xander’s hand quivering.
“Is that a threat?” Xander asked.
“Make me Luna right here, right now!” She demanded. “And I won’t tell the pack a thing.”
“You’re deluded. You’ve always been deluded,” Xander said. “I chose to keep you around because of your family’s reputable name.”
“Ah you don’t know what’s gonna hit you Alpha boy,” She laughed hysterically. Pointing her claw at Catherine, “This girl ran you and your partner over one night… you survived and your mate died in the accident,” she sneered.
“You’ll make a fool of yourself,” Xander said. ‘It’s all talk with nothing to show for it,” he smiled.
Faye grew infuriated because she knew he was right. She gave Catherine an ill look and walked out in annoyance.
“Xander what’s gonna happen?” Catherine asked.
“Nothing. Nothing’s gonna happen,” he said confidently.
