A/N: This is my first time writing a story like this! Any reviews/feedback would be very much appreciated! Thanks!
I stood in disbelief at the words I had just heard. There is no way that my dad would just give me away like that. Not to an alpha, not to anybody.
"Allison, please go and grab anything that is important to you and come back quickly. Do not worry about clothes. We need to get on the road now." I was pulled from my thoughts when I heard his stern voice. My panicked eyes moved from my dad to him, shock still covering my eyes.
"Ally. Go." My eyes shifted back to my dad. I swallowed and turned to run into the pack house. I grabbed a small crossbody backpack and put in just a few things. I sat on the edge of my bed and placed my hands down against it firmly. This was the last time that I would probably see the room that my mom would snuggle me on the bed or talk to me when I had nightmares. I sighed and stood up, straightening out my dress gently.
I made my way back outside, wiping a small tear away from under my eye as I went. "I am ready Alpha Moon." He got down from his horse and held a handout to me. I walked closer and placed my hand in his. Tingles erupted all over my skin and I felt a small gasp escape my lips. He placed his hands on my hips and hoisted me up onto the saddle of his horse. He pushed the bulk of my dress to the side and used the stirrup to place his weight on while lifting himself onto the back of the horse. I kept my eyes down as he moved the horse along. His men following closely along. They chatted as we rode along, but I kept head down and stayed quiet, other than for the few gasps of air that escaped as his skin would brush up against mine.
"Alpha, Trish just mind linked me to let me know that Kassy is looking for you in your quarters and around the offices." He nodded. A man of few words.
We crossed a small stream and were greeted by a few wolves. The men all gave them a nod and continued. I assumed that meant we had crossed into Blood Moon Pack territory, or at least that of a neighboring territory.
Within 5 minutes we passed a small cabin along the same stream we had crossed through earlier. It must have cut up through the wooded area. Another hour in my eyes widened as my head lifted. The pack house was huge. It was so big that I could not even see the homes in the village behind it.
I was so lost in thought that I didn't even notice when Alpha Moon had slid off the horse along with the other men.
"Allison," He directed his eyes at me as I slid down. He placed his hands on my waist set me on the ground.
I stepped away from him and directed my eyes back to the ground until I heard a voice coming from behind me.
"Hi! You must be Allison! Beta Worthy mind linked me and told me about you! I am going to show you around!" I took a deep breath and nodded. I offered her the best smile that I could before turning my head back to the sound of Alpha Moon's voice.
"Trish, please show Allison to her quarters. She will be in the quarters directly across from mine. Please get her some clothes. Allison, please make yourself comfortable and I will be up to speak with you within the hour."
"But Alpha, those quarters are for="
"Trish, my love," the red head began to speak, "please just show Allison to her quarters. I would like to see you in my office after you are finished." She nodded over at him.
"Absolutely Honey." She offered him a sweet smile as they all walked off.
"You can come with me now!" She was so chipper and energetic. I followed her closely. I kept my head down and my bag clutched tightly to my chest. I knew how pack members thought and treated newcomers. Most would probably assume that I was a rogue.
"These are your quarters!" Trish exclaimed as she pushed open the doors to a spacious room, "The bathroom and closet are moved over to the left, a desk to the right. You should be pretty comfortable. I will lay a couple dresses on the bed that should get you through for a couple days. Is there anything else I can get you?" I placed my tiny bag down on the desk, running my fingers across it gently.
"Uhm no, I think that I am okay right now. Thank you though." She gave me a small smile.
"No problem, Allison." She turned to leave.
"Ally- you can call me Ally." She turned her head back over her shoulder and smiled.
"I'll see you later Ally." She closed the door behind her as she walked out, not soon after a knock was heard at my door. I walked over and opened it slightly.
"Yes?"
"Hello Allison, my name is Meghan, Travis said that Alpha Moon asked for me to drop off a couple of dresses for you. So, here you go," she offered with a smile.
I reached out for them with a smile, "Thank you Meghan, but you can just call me Ally. I promise I will keep them in good shape and get them back to you just as they are now."
She laughed and rubbed her hand over her plump belly and smiled, "Keep them as long as you need, I will not be fitting in them for at least four more months." I laughed a little and smiled.
"How far along?" she rubbed gently with a smile.
"Five months, hopefully the next four will go by quickly," she offered a smile and continued on, "it was very nice to meet you Ally, but I have to get back to work. Hopefully I will see you around?"
"Of course. Thank you, Meghan." She turned with a smile and walked off.
I closed the door and hung both dresses up in the closet. They were beautiful. One was a sage green silk dress with lace under parts that showed just slightly at the cleavage, also with off the shoulder straps. The other was a black fitted velvet dress with long sleeves and buttons lining the back. Both were floor length. I took off my black boots and placed them in the closet before moving into the bathroom and starting the shower. I stripped of my clothes and stepped into the steaming hot shower.
I took my time. I washed my hair, body, and face before standing under the hot water to relax. I sighed as I stepped out. I brushed through my waist length hair and scrunched the water out with my towel. I took one more deep breath of the steam in the room before hanging my towel and stepping out of the bathroom and into my closet. I ran my fingers along the black velvet. I took it off of the hanger when I heard a growl come from the door frame.
I felt a scream escape my lips as I covered my body as best I could with the dress. I glanced up and noticed Alpha Moon standing in the doorway of my closet.
"Alpha, please give me a moment to dress and I will be right out." His cold eyes scanned down the length of the dress.
"Dress fast Allison. We have business we need to speak of. His eyes seemed to soften as he closed the door and walked back into the bedroom.
