Alpha Jackson Thorne

I am Alpha Jackson Thorne of the Black Moon Pack. I was in the Army on active duty before I was called back to take over as Alpha. I only came back because my father called me to tell me that my mother was dying. That is the only reason why I asked to be discharged. Otherwise, I would still be serving in the Army. My mother was half human and half werewolf, so it turned out that her human side was dying from cancer, which hurts her wolf. My father told me that the moon goddess Selene had called my mom's wolf back. Her wolf will stay there until she is needed again. My father had been by her side this whole time and had never left except for bathroom breaks and meal breaks. Once my father went for his meal break I stayed with my mother. She looked so pale and thin.

My mother's name was Patricia Thorne and she died that night holding onto my hand. I guess she holding on and fighting the pain to see me one last time before she departed the earth. By the time my father came back, he saw that her eyes were closed and are at peace now. He couldn't help but go to her side to hold her and cry. That is when he did the howling sound to alert all the pack members that Luna Thorne has died. They all howled back in response.

The next morning we buried my mother in the cemetery and her stone read here lies Luna Patricia Thorne of the Black Moon Pack. Loving wife and mother. Everyone at the funeral paid their respects. My mother was known for making an impact on people and she did. That is why everyone in the pack loved her. Everyone had left and it was just me and my dad Jackson Thorne Sr. standing there looking at her grave. That was a year ago when she died during the full moon and now here we are again on a full moon. Each year when there is a full moon the pack members shift at midnight and we do a pack run. However, last year the pack members that had their wolves shifted, but we didn't do the pack run because of the death of my mother.

This year you thought would be doing the full moon shift and the pack run. After the pack members shift at midnight and do the pack run, there is always a party afterward to celebrate the occasion. When midnight came everyone shifted and got their wolves. However, there was one wolf that did stand out and it was white as snow and very beautiful. I could tell that she had been blessed by the moon goddess.

After everyone had the there joy of running through the woods, they all shifted to their human forms and got dressed. Then they came in to enjoy the food and drinks. I could see the daughter of James and Evelyn Michaels, sitting in a corner talking to one of her friends. I don't even think she notices me staring at her. Well, she didn't until her friend said something to her, then looked my way.

She was having a conversation with her new wolf. It was obvious that she was mad at her, because of the way her eyes were going back and forth. Ivy saw the way that I was staring at her and I just smiled and she smiled back a little bit. No harm done it wasn't as if I was looking for my mate right now.

I had other things to take care of for now. For example, how to occupy the land that separates the Black Moon Pack from the Blood Moon Pack. We both want to expand our territory and we can't seem to come to a common ground without letting our wolf's surface. Therefore, we had to call the meeting off for a while, at least until we could come to terms on how to settle this.

However, my father is asking that I find my mate soon so I can take over the pack. If you thought I taken over the pack already, that would be a no. The only way my dad will let me take over is if I find my mate and she stands by my side as Luna. Usually, on days such as this, my dad would take over the full moon shifting for the pack members, since today was the anniversary of my mother's death I had to take over for my father. He just couldn't handle doing the pack run without her. As if I had a choice in the matter after all I was her son and the only heir to the Black Moon Pack. If I didn't then other pack members would have to wait to shift until the next full moon. I'm pretty sure that the pack members of the Black Moon Pack did not want to wait until the next full moon to do the pack run.

Here I am watching the pack members enjoy themselves. I don't know why, but my wolf Blake is forcing me to stare at Ivy. Blake, is there a reason why we are staring at Ivy? She's the one we need he tells me and that is all he says before he goes into the back of my mind. The one we need I wonder what he meant by that.

Anyhow, I walk around to congratulate each pack member and their parents on their child's wolf. I know that I am a young Alpha, but the pack members still show me expect because they know I am next in line to take over this pack. As I walk and congratulate each one of them I see Ivy heading towards her parents. Wolves have unique hearing, so I heard her tell them that she was ready to go home. I'm making my way over to them and I see that Ivy is trying to get out of the door as quickly as possible. Little ones she knowmI'm a bit quicker than her. While she is trying to make her way through the crowd. I make my way to the door to her and her parents goodnight. I'm standing here waiting for her and everyone is congratulating Ivy on her White wolf. She looks irritated too, which means she is ready to go home.

Ivy and her parents finally make their way to the door. They see me and stop in their tracks to say goodnight, but before they do I congratulate them on Ivy's beautiful wolf. For some reason though Blake is going around in my head pacing. Blake, I say, I'm trying to say goodnight to Ivy's parents. All he keeps saying is that she is the one that we need.

Then maybe she is the one that you need his father says. After all, you do need a mate before you can take over the pack my son. You know this is why I decided to go into the Army. Always forcing me to have a mate. Son you cannot have a pack without a Luna. Why not? I have heard of several other packs that have an Alpha and they don't have a Luna. Yes, true but without a Luna you're not very strong son.
