Chapter 2 CH 2: Alpha of Hill View

The night sky turned into a calming black married to a poetry of dazzling stars. It was a special kind of darkness. The kind that allows the moon and the stars to shine much brighter than usual. It gave them beauty with such calming sight followed by the cool breeze.. somehow making the heart feels safe and serene.

But, Fate may want it to be otherwise. The calming night may soon turn into a storm of fire.

The shipping port of Morevar is one of the largest shipping ports in the region. It is still busy in the middle of the night where some ships were seen loading and discharging big cargoes. Large containers were stacked at the enormous port in such a manner that they can be easily taken out as per their scheduled vessel departure.

The large shipping port has several modern looking terminals served as checkpoints for incoming goods. A rich country like Morevar is known to be run by large corporation who sponsored the politicians.

In this world where Human beings are known to not be living alone anymore, anything paranormal is possible. With the world accepting Supernatural beings after years of fighting with the Human, there came a system for peace maintained by a group of Humans called the Peacekeepers. It has been peaceful for decades.

But, there are always those that want to be set free. Disturbing this so called peace in the eyes of the public.

Being coded in the system based on your species, is the new definition of racism. Werewolves, Vampires, Witches, Wizards and Fairies are examples of Supernatural beings living with the Humans. Each being forced to be coded in the system with a small barcode placed on their neck identifying them being a group other than the superior beings called Humans.

Non Humans were being discriminated and were not made easy for them to hold higher position in the Government related jobs. They were either filthy rich like most eternal life Vampires or dirt poor living on the streets like Rogue Wolves with no Wolf pack to hold on to.

What looks like peace.. was just a show to calm the public. War is coming. Those being oppressed of opportunities are waking up and unite to fight. A fight for equality. A fight for justice.

And tonight, an extremely valuable goods would arrive at midnight. A special transportation by ship, with a special goods that were illegally transported to a group of men dressed in grey suits. Seven men from a dangerous family of Morevar’s largest criminal mobster led by a man known as Dante.

Amanda is so close to finding out who is Dante. He or she is someone that is causing disruption on the Peace Treaty signed between Humans and the Supernatural. A person who is known to be a Human helping the Supernaturals to defeat his own kind.

Seated in a black tinted SUV, a notorious attractive looking Alpha waited patiently for an important shipment worth millions from Dante. With his eyes closed, his mind drifted in a place where dreams may flow easily for just a moment.

Being the Alpha of a large Wolf pack is something he was not ready for but Fate made him take over the role at such young age. He has everything. Money, power, respect, women.. any woman he wants. With his handsome looks and perfect toned body, she-wolves would crawl on his bed anytime he wants them too.

Despite all that good life, his heart felt empty. Empty as he was still looking for his long lost Luna.

Opening his lazy eyes slightly, he saw the full moon shining bright. He knew Werewolves senses could be out of control and a hunger to fulfill their sexual desires are heightened tonight. Smiling, he has one woman in mind. He may not love her but she gives him whatever he wants sexually.

“Alaric, they are here” the words that escaped his cousin Ralph’s mouth snap his mind back to reality. Ralph being the next in command is a young Beta of his Wolf pack. He is the fastest among any Wolves living among the Hill Town Wolf Pack.

“I know. I can smell them. Get in position” Alaric blinked his grey misty eyes open and glared at his Beta in command, “One mistake from them, leave none of them alive. No trace leading them to us. Got it?”

Nodding his head and slightly bow in respect, Ralph agreed, “You can trust me Alaric”

“Of course I can. But, one mistake from your team, I’ll end their lives too tonight” Alaric fixed his tailored black Armani suit and got out from his dark tinted bulletproof SUV car to meet the men sent by Dante tonight.

The only reason Alaric is dealing with the gang from Morevar tonight is for the unique goods they have on hand right now. A substance that could heal their body from being burnt by silver bullets. One vial of the liquid injected in the body of Werewolves could protect them from death by silver weapons for few hours. It is useful for them to fight off the group of Humans who has been hunting them down for what they found out to be a secret underground experiments.

Wolves were missing from families and the authorities did nothing to help them locate their missing love ones. It has to stop. Alpha Alaric being the next in line to be the King of Alpha is not afraid to go into war with the Humans who broke the Peace Treaty Agreement.

He tried to bring this matter up to the Queen of Averna, the elected Protector of Supernaturals. But, they had not enough proof to charge the Humans for abducting Supernaturals from being experimented on.

The throne for the new King of Alphas will be vacant soon as the current King of Alpha called Wayne Wolfgard got severely injured from a war among Alphas that happened few months ago. Alaric refused to sit on the throne even after being voted to be the one that could lead the Werewolves towards victory.

Alaric will not rest until the day he kills the Human who attacked his leader.. his mentor, his King of Alphas. He is close in finding the truth. Alaric will one day prove that the attack on their King of Alphas was planned by the manipulative Peacekeepers. They were behind it all this while. It was brutal.

War will come. As prophesised by a Witch, Alpha Alaric will be the one that would lead the Werewolves to be great again. He will fight for equality. He will fight to end discrimination.

As the three men walked behind Alaric, he smirked seeing they are outnumbered, “Ralph, you see how prepared they are? Seven Humans against us four”

Ralph being the loyal Beta and cousin of Alaric, scoffed. He is one of those that is ready to give his life away to protect Alaric. “I can take them all down under two minutes”

“I can do it in one minute” Alaric grinned while looking at a group of seven men waiting for them outside a warehouse next to the shipping terminal, “Locate the goods. Take them all. Then, you know what to do to Dante’s pathetic and weak men”

“Consider it done, Alpha” Ralph smiled with his eyes locked on the man who looks like the leader of his opponent. A man wearing an expensive darker grey coloured suit.

As the two group of men began their negotiation, they did not realised they were being watched by someone assigned to stop the deal from happening. An Agent with the code name The Reaper.
