Caged Between the beta and alpha novel Chapter 109

The evening had passed in merriment; with the hustle and bustle of children playing and laughing, adults teasing and chatting, and the warmth of a pleasant night hung in the air. It was now finally time for them t o take their oaths. Mum and Dad were on the stage, with Liam, Raven and Damon now making their way onto the stage.

Looking at them on either side of Raven… I wondered what if things had been different, Damon would have still been an Alpha… but it seemed he didn’t need a mate to get that title, he was meant to be one… ‘Can’t stand the fucker.’ Alejandro’s voice came through the link. I raised an eyebrow. ‘I thought you’d be over that by now, my sexy beast.’ I questioned, caressing the back of his neck as I kissed his cheek. ‘Once a fucker always a fucker, but I guess he deserves the title, he was a good Beta when Liam was on his training.’ I smiled slightly and nodded.

Yes, he was. I’m glad you see that.’ I replied turning my attention back to the trio. ‘Of course I do, Amore Mio, but that doesn’t mean I have to fucking like him.’ 2 He wrapped his arms around me and I leaned into him, life with Alejandro was perfect. I glanced over at the far side where the children were playing, with the omega’s minding them and their own set of guards standing around. My little angels. He kissed my shoulder before we looked towards

Dad who was now beginning on the oath. Damon would become Alpha first, as Dad would be handing him the honorary title of Alpha before Liam can take over from him. Dad looked a lot better, he like the rest of us was becoming accustomed with Rafael’s passing. Gone but never ever forgotten. I placed my hand on top of Alejandro’s, my heart racing a she kissed my neck. 2 ‘You ok? “Yes.” I whispered, turning and kissing his lips. “I, Alpha Elijah Westwood, honour you,

Damon Nicholson, with the title of Alpha of The Blue Moon pack, under the full moon and by Selene’s blessings. Do you accept this position?” Dad asked, authority clear in his voice, his piercing eyes on Damon. “I, Damon Nicholson, accept the title of Alpha of The Blue Moon pack, giving my oath that it will always be united with the Blood Moon pack and to respect and honour this oath.” Damon’s reply came. “Do you vow to protect, serve, and lead the pack to the best of your abilities?”

“I do.” Both men sliced their hands before shaking hands and sealing the pact, I felt the shift of power slightly. Liam was actually sharing the Alpha power that he would have inherited from Dad with Damon, and I had t o say I was proud of him. He had made mistakes, but he had redeemed himself. “I present to you, Alpha Damon of The Blue Moon Pack!” Dad said as he hugged Damon, and everyoneclapped and cheered…

LIAM Damon turned and hugged me. I slapped his back, it was going to be hard… no longer able to link him anymore… “Phones, bro.” Damon said as if guessing what was on my mind. I raised an eyebrow. “Yeah, phones.” I agreed, he looked at me with his smile fading. “Thank you.” “Don’t.” I shook my head, giving him a small smile, stepping back and allowing Raven to hug him. “Congratulations! I am going to still call you Damon.” She stated, making Damon chuckle.

“Of course, tiny Luna.” He teased before we turned to Dad once more. “Ready?” He said to me. I nodded, this time… I won’t fuck this up. Westwood, to be bound by oath to serve, protect and lead this pack from here onwards to the best of your capabilities.” Dad said, his eyes met mine and I saw the confidence in them, one that had been slightly amiss the last time I took this oath.

“1, Liam Westwood, accept the position of Alpha of The Blood Moon Pack, to honour, serve and protect this pack to the best of my abilities.” Dad sliced his hand before passing me the knife. I cut a deep gash, shaking quickly as it healed incredibly fast. I felt the power of the Alpha title course through me, the murmur of the pack congratulating me through the link and the position of Alpha falling back into place. By the goddess herself, I promise to always protect my people.
