Chapter 1.
Two years before the events of The Blue Eyed Wolf.
Alpha George's POV.
Laughter and giggling filled the room. Kurt had over his friends again. John and Amber, my Bète's son and daughter along with Tasha who is the daughter of my Gamma.
They were playing a four player video game while it was storming outside. Then a flash of lightning happened and just as the loud boom of thunder went off the power went out.
Just our luck. The sounds of disappointment from the kids was heard and I looked at my mate through the darkness and smiled. She was already up and grabbing candles and oil lamps.
Once we had them set up and were sitting on the dinning room downstairs I noticed that the kids looked bored playing card games. Then an idea came to mind.
My father used to tell me stories of his childhood when we had power outages. I can do the exact same and cheer these kids up.
" Hey children, gather around. I have an interesting story to tell you all. " I said.
They looked at each other in confusion before shrugging and walking over. They all sat their chairs around me and I smiled at them. " What kind of story are you going to tell us Alpha George?" Asked Amber politely.
" Are you gonna tell us a super cool store of how you defeated a rogue army?" Cried Tasha.
I chuckled. " As cool as that would be. I never did that. " I said.
" Aww. " she sighed and slumped down but was instantly back to her old self.
" Just settle down Tasha and let dad tell his story. " said Kurt.
" Yeah, just relax and let's listen. " said John.
" Ok. " said Tasha.
They all looked at me again. " The story I'm going to tell you is how I first became Alpha. " I said.
" Wasn't it just some ceremony like most Alpha's have?" Asked Amber.
" No necessarily. Not all of us get the chance to have a ceremony. " I said.
" You didn't have a ceremony? No way." Cried Tasha.
" How did it happen?" Asked Kurt. They were all wrapped around my finger now.
I smiled sadly. " My story began like this......."

20 years ago, in a hospital room.
Alpha George's POV.
The doctor said it. The words we were dreading to hear. " You have stage four liver cancer. I'm afraid there's nothing we can do. "
I looked over at my father. His eyes were sad but knowing. We may be werewolves but even we can die from cancer. My dad has been very sick for months and now we know why. He's basically bedridden. He was given a room the second we arrived at the hospital.
My heart felt like it was breaking. I looked back at the human doctor pleadingly. " Please, there has to be something you can do." I practically begged.
I already lost my mother. She died after giving birth to me. I never got to meet her. I grew up being raised by my father. He is my rock. My everything. I'm only 16. I'm next in line for Alpha. I need him. I'm not ready.
I can't even imagine life without him. He's all I have. The doctor just gave a sad shake of his head. I felt tears well up in my eyes.
" How long have I got?" Asked my father.
" It's already at its worse. I can give you meds for nausea and pain. " he said.
" How long doc, please just tell me?" Said my father.
" Two days at most. " answered the doctor.
A small sob of despair left me. " I'm so sorry. I'll give you a while to process this. " he then got up and left the room
I looked at my father. " Dad, what do we do? " I cried.
Tears were already rolling down my face. He took a deep breath and out a smile on his face. He looked at me warmly. " We push forward. Just like we always do. " he said.
" I can't lose you. I can't do this by myself. " I said weakly.
He hugged me to him. " I'll still be here, in your heart. I'll never truly be gone. " he said.
" What about the further of the pack? How am I supposed to run it by myself?" I asked.
" Remember what I taught you and you'll never go wrong. Trust yourself and those around you and don't be afraid to go to the neighboring packs for help like I was. I know you can do this George. " said my father weakly.
He let me go but placed his hands on my cheeks and gently caressed my face. " I give to you the power given to me by those who made me an Alpha. I give to you all the love and kindness that goes into being Alpha. I give you the courage and strength it takes to be an Alpha and lastly, I give you the fear and respect that comes with being an Alpha. You are now the Alpha of The Grey Wolf Pack. Nice to meet you, Alpha George. " said my father.
It was then that I felt all this new power enter my body from his hands. It was new yet familiar and welcomed me like an old friend.
" I love you George. " I heard before my dad flipped back against the sheets. That's when I heard the loud beep of his heart stopping. Him giving me this power weakened him to a state I can't bring him back from.
Nurses and the doctor rushed in and moved me away so they could work on my father but I'm the end, they couldn't bring him back. My dad was gone, just like that and now I am Alpha of a dying pack.
What am I going to do?
