Introduction.

I have never believed in halloween tales, in fact I only believe in supernatural beings because I was born into a legendary family of wolves and I have constantly wondered if I was lucky or unlucky, because sometimes it seems that living among supernatural beings is more cruel. to live among humans.

There's always someone saying "follow the rules, be a good girl, don't disappoint your father, don't soil this family's legacy".

This is just annoying.

I could follow the rules if they were fair, but they weren't made to favor everyone.

It's all so unfair, especially for us women.

My mother says " you are living too much with humans, you are already adopting their useless causes."

But what's wrong with wanting equal rights?

If wanting equality makes me a feminist and an adopter of worthless human causes, okay, I am that, what I won't be is someone who lives for others.

I want to be able to leave whenever I want, come back whenever I want without having to explain myself always, I want to have the right to choose what to do with my life and who I'm going to marry, I also don't need to marry at eighteen just because that's what I want. It has become a tradition in my family.

So fuck the rules.

Screw this sexist hierarchy.

That's what I said to myself the moment I heard my father say " Luna, I will evaluate some names to court you, you are almost seventeen, the time has come to think about getting married."

I almost threw out my entire lunch after all as if it wasn't enough that he insisted I have to kill someone to activate my faulty wolf genes that should have been active when I turned sixteen, but for some reason I'm still a human, weak is pathetic according to my father. But I don't care to remain human for the rest of my life, after all I would have to live far from this unrevolutionary wolf scent of this pack. I sigh, tapping my fingers on the dinner table nonstop, feeling totally unwilling to eat or endure another family dinner where my dad and uncle talk about their uninnovative ideas.

- Luna, behave like a real lady, please. - Asks my father, calling my attention and I look at him.

- What am I doing wrong this time daddy? - I ask and he sighs taking the napkin and then brings it to his mouth.

- This drumming is irritating, ladies should eat in silence and speak only if their opinion is requested or if the subject is directed to her. - he answers and I contain the urge to roll my eyes.

- Then I ask your majesty's permission to remove me from the table. - I say bored and he looks at me seriously.

- See what I have to put up with, brother? - Asks my father to my uncle who smiles.

- She's just a child, don't demand so much of her. - my uncle answers, trying to assuage my father's fury.

- Is screaming that you are not going to marry a good suitor chosen by your father a childish attitude for you, brother? - Asks my father and I hear my cousin holding back a laugh pretending to have choked on his food.

- It's an attitude of a coherent person, after all I'm going to get married, so it's only fair that I choose my intention when I want to get married. - I say and he looks at my uncle. - After all, I will only serve to share a bed, procreate and fill you with grandchildren since the women of this pack are treated as slaves to the will of men. - complete and he punches the table making it crack and with the impact the dishes on the table shake and some even fall.

- Enough ! - exclaims angrily. - Stop talking nonsense and go up to your room, I'm tired of hearing you talk nonsense, I'll take care of your future and that's final. - completes and I get up.

- I will no longer be a slave to this pack. - I say and he growls annoyed showing his golden alpha eyes trying to intimidate me, but I don't care, his alpha eyes have no effect on me, so I just keep staring at him idly while everyone lowers their heads.

- Dear brother, calm down, you're stressing out for nothing. - says my uncle and my father looks at him. - Let's finish our dinner, we have work to do. - Completes and my father sits down again at the table still staring at me.

- Now that the show is over, I can go to my room and be in peace, so if not, leave. - I say and then I leave without waiting for an answer.

I go up to my room smiling happy that I don't have to spend more time listening to nonsense, as soon as I throw myself on my bed I hear a knock on the door and then my cousin enters with his eyes closed.

- Can I enter without having my vision affected by your ugliness? - asks my amused cousin.

- Depends, will I need to get the lady inside me out of the closet or can I continue to be the family headache? - I question amusedly and he opens his eyes and then smiles.

- If one day you stop being the headache of the family, I'll beat you until you get back to normal. - he answers and I smile.

- Kai, I swear you're the only person I'll miss when I'm gone. - I say and he denies it.

- No, if you leave, I'll go with you. - he says laying down next to me.

- Of course, I forgot that you said you would be my beta. - I say and he laughs.

- But for that you need to make a halloween tale come true. - he says and I nod.

Clear.

The famous story of the witch who put a curse on my family a thousand years ago.

The curse called "the first alpha."

My mother told me that a thousand years ago one of the best known alphas in the wolf world for having extinguished a clan of witches in the city and founded our pack starting my family's legacy, he was cursed by a witch after he killed her entire clan for a second the tale they have killed children to use their bones in forbidden rituals, however one of the witches on her deathbed said "I have cursed your entire clan and as the years pass your family alliance will be broken, the hierarchy that has lasted for centuries will be undone, for she will be born, many will fear her and others will adore her, she will end the legacy you are so proud of, she will be the first female born alpha." Angry but it never happened and it never will, this is just another story to motivate girls to revolt against their conservative clans and get killed for the council's amusement.

Imagine what a mess that would cause if it were true.

I think the only good part would be the change in the rules, the fall of the hierarchy that favors only the men of the pack.

It would be something to be remembered for centuries.

Maybe even forever.
