The Alpha's Surprised Mate (Book #1 of Silver Moon Series)

Sixty - Eight: Ancient Pacts

Sixty-Eight: Ancient Pacts

Unknown

I am sitting on a couch in a neutral location. We agreed to meet somewhere in the middle of our lands.

We all knew where each other’s lands were located and had been on them before. The three of us

have known each other for 3,000 years now. I trust them to an extent. They gave me my immortality. I

never thought their original plan was going to work. I was right, and I ended up saving their lives even if

they lost their powers, but not their immortality. I decided that I needed more than just me, so even

though my kind is usually solitary, I chose to set up a somewhat pack-like clan. I have my second and

third in command. I was able to get them to make my second and thirst immortal as well. We had

helped them make the Navarro family respected, and somehow we were able to get them into the

pack. By that time, Dimitri was gone and dead. Well, that’s what we thought. It turns out he had been

bitten by a vampire, and everyone knew that wolf and vampire DNA don’t mix. Dominick had found him,

and Mykenzie and Kylani had saved him. Somehow with their blood, they made the two DNA mix, and

Dimitri survived and became even more powerful. We were still able to tear the pack apart. I never

expected Dominick and the Alpha of the Navarro family to fight to the death. Dominick won but was

mortally wounded. I saw Dimitri start to call for the goddesses, but Dominick told him no and died in his

arms. All was well for a few months after the pack war. That was until Mykenzie and Kylani showed up,

and I swear the ground broke open, and hell came forth. My two guys and I were just coming back from

running a perimeter check when we saw them. The new Alpha was smiling at them smugly like he

knew they would give and join them. What happened next will forever stay ingrained in my memory. I

noticed movement not too far away to see the other two that had brought this on. As I watched, I heard

them say:

“Too much power for one so one became two, but two can become one when our blood is in danger.”

The other two had walked over to the three of us as we watched Mykenzie and Kylani merge into one

goddess. The new goddess looked like a mix of the two. Same height and body shape as both girls;

that’s where it stopped. Their hair had turned into a solid blue-green colour, and their eyes were a dark

teal and glowing brightly. They had a bright red aura around them, and you could feel their immense

power flowing out. That’s when I say it the fires that had been started had turned blue and green and

radiated immense heat. Their wings extended, and every natural disaster that could happen did

happen. The growl that they released reverberated through the ground and sounded like a fucking

roaring tiger. By this time, everyone had stopped moving. The entire Navarro family was watching

them. I knew that this family was finished and that we were dead if they got ahold of the five of us.

Then, they literally just twitched on hand, and the entire family was on the ground withering in pain. The

goddess walked over to one member and touched him, the Alpha, and he turned to ash. The rest of the

family started to turn to ash as well. We watched as anyone with Navarro blood in them turned to ash

as was blown away by the hurricane-force wind created by the goddess.

“Let this be a warning to anyone or anything that threatens our blood. I will show no mercy and if you

think this was bad, it will not compare to what I will do next time.”

Then the goddess was gone, and it was almost like nothing ever happened. The five of us got the fuck

out of there. As we were leaving, we heard crying. I walked over to a small hole in a tree. I found two

children. One was a girl no older than a few months the other was a boy about two. We all looked at

each other and knew that they were part of the Navarro family, but how had they survived? The other

two went to the children, and when they touched them, they were jolted back.

“They are the children of our father. That’s how they survived. His blood protected them. The mother

must have hidden them here to protect them. I am sure she is dead.” The woman said.

We were shocked that Ares would have an affair with a member of this particular family. Unless he

didn’t know who she was. That’s when I notice that the boy has a particular colour of eyes that is onlyThis content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

seen in fae. He had dark forest green eyes that faded to hazel in the middle. I took a sniff and could

smell the faint scent of fae.

“He has fae blood in him as does the girl. It is faint probably because the fae was a long-ago family

member. This means that Ares was unable to smell the Navarro blood.” I tell them.

The five of us took the children and left the area. We did stay around each other so we could raise the

children together. Unfortunately, the children as they became aware that they were different. The boy

finally disappeared one day, and we never saw him again. The girl stayed, and we were able to control

her to an extent. I kept going in my thoughts until I felt someone slap my arm.

“Earth to Damian. What had you so deep in thought?” Marshall, my second in command, asks.

“Sorry just going back in time after the incident a few weeks ago,” I told him.

Yeah, we all had flashbacks when the girls merged on some of our people a few weeks ago after we

attacked them. My guys and I ran once we realized what was going to happen. We got the fuck out of

there. However, we did see some of the other girls that travelled with the goddesses. I had seen Bryn

and Alexis before. The three of us were the other three, and fuck they are gorgeous. I had heard of

them but had never seen them. Daniylla, Jailynn, and Leah. We all looked at each other and knew we

had to have those three. I stared at Daniylla. She is short at 5”0” with long blond hair the colour of gold

with natural red highlights throughout it. The most striking feature is her eyes. They are purple, almost

the colour of lilacs, only slightly paler. I have never seen eyes that colour. That’s when I remember that

she is the daughter of Dimitri and the Fae Queen Imyra. Most vampires have red eyes, and most fae

has either blue or green. It must be the mixing of red and blue eyes. Fuck she is gorgeous, and I must

have her. I took a sniff to see if I could catch her scent, and I saw red. I couldn’t scent her, but I caught

the scent of the Gamma Nate on her. Fuck he was her mate. Well, for now anyway. I looked at

Marshall, and he was fixed on Jailynn. She was also beautiful at 5’7'' with the palest brown hair I have

ever seen that reached the middle of her back. She has the most interesting eyes. They are brown;

however, they have a shimmer to them, almost like they shine, and they can fade from a dark brown to

a light brown. I have seen those eyes before. That’s when it hit me fuck she is the daughter of Athena.

These girls just keep getting more interesting. I could not catch her natural scent, but she had a scent

of a wolf on her as well. He wasn’t a ranking member but still a wolf. I looked at my third in command,

Ian. He was fixed on Leah. She was taller than the rest at 5’9” with long, pale, almost silvery blonde

hair and blue eyes the colour of forget-me-nots. She did not carry anyone's scent on her yet. I knew

that these three would be ours somehow.

“So what are we gonna do to get these women?” I asked.

“I don’t know. I thought those boys would be helpful but Zane is too focused on revenge for his damn

father.” She says.

“What if we used the boys as bait to lure out the girls? I am sure they and the pack are itching to get

their hands on the ones that keep attacking them.” Ian says.

We all stop and look at each other. That is a fantastic idea. The boys are enemy number one of the

pack and the girls right now, which means they will not be expecting the rest of us. Well, the girls don’t

know that the three of us exist. We all look at each other and smile. We know we have our plan.

I have been keeping an eye on everyone in the pack for two weeks now. I have learned that the guys

aren’t that organized with their plans. The new Alpha wants revenge for his father’s death. The other

two are just along for the ride. They had all grown up together, but they were basically pawns for

Penthesilea and Phlegyas’s plans. I was currently listening in on a meeting between three werebears

that I don’t know and Penthesilea and Phlegyas. I couldn’t believe that Penthesilea and Phlegyas

would turn on the boys like this. I listened as they talked about Daniylla, Jailynn, and Leah and how the

werebears want them as their mates to create a strong clan of their own. Obvious that Penthesilea and

Phlegyas still want Mykenzie and Kylani to take power away from the gods. If they only knew that

Mykenzie and Kylani give zero fucks about even being goddesses. They hate having to go to family

meetings. They prefer to be down here with the human and supernatural world. I decide to leave as I

can tell this meeting is coming to an end. I have recorded the entire meeting. Penthesilea and Phlegyas

have admitted to basically casting a spell over the old Alpha and manipulating the boys. Also, to not be

related to the new Alpha and that his younger brother is just some orphan that was found. I actually feel

sorry for the Crimson Tide Pack. They have been deceived and lied to for years now by Penthesilea

and Phlegyas. I have also been researching the Crimson Tide Pack and found that they were a small

pack with big visions that Penthesilea and Phlegyas took advantage of. The old Alpha had just lost his

mate in childbirth, and when Penthesilea and Phlegyas showed up and placed a spell so he would fall

in love with Penthesilea. These two are fucking evil and whoever saved them originally was stupid. I

decide to pay a visit to the Crimson Tide Pack and break the news of the lies that Penthesilea and

Phlegyas have been spewing for years to them. I return to the old packhouse, and all three boys are

there. They seem to be angry about something. I decide to make myself known to them without them

actually seeing me.

“Hello boys, I think there is something you should know about the woman you trust and you, Zane calls

mother,” I say.

“Who are you and why can’t we see you?” Zak the Betta asks.

I mildly explain who I am and they are not impressed. I tell them to listen to what I have to say, and

when I am done, I play the recording of the meeting that I was just at. I watch as their faces fall and

when they realize that everything they have ever known is a complete lie. They know they need to

leave this land and get away from Penthesilea, Phlegyas, and all the others who are here and loyal to

them. I tell them where they can go and that I am going to help them out. Now I just have to convince

everyone to hear me out. I don’t think I will have a problem. I plan to go to Chris and Dimitri first, tell

them everything I know, and let them listen to the recording. Then I will have them meet these three. I

know if I can get Chris and Dimitri on my side about these three, then we can also convince the others.

Mykenzie and Kylani will be the hardest to convince, but that’s where Chris comes in by reading the

minds of these three to see how much bullshit Penthesilea and Phlegyas fed them. I can’t wait till

Penthesilea and Phlegyas return to find their pawns gone. I get the three to the safe place and now to

have a chat with Chris and Dimitri.
