Episode 3

Onyx headed to talk to Rock, wanting to arrange the transfer of the pack since no one had declared themselves alpha. If someone had, Onyx would challenge them; those lands would be his, no matter what.

Onyx: Hey... You... call Rock... Hurry up, I don't have all day.

Sun: I'll call him, alpha...

The frightened omega ran off; they were very afraid of the new alpha of all the moons.

Onyx impatiently waited until he saw the beta approaching slowly.

Rock: Hi Onyx, what brings you here?

Onyx: I came to ask you to talk to your people. Organize the pack for the transfer to all the moons. I want them in my pack this week.

Rock: I don't think it's possible.

Onyx: Why?

Rock: These days... the new alpha is arriving.

Onyx: I don't understand. Boris didn't have any offspring, and I don't think anyone here can assume the position.

Rock: Boris joined the Confederation led by Henry Wolf, and they will send the new alpha.

Onyx: Is this a damn joke? Damn it! Who the hell is the new alpha?

Rock: I don't know; they will let me know when they're arriving.

Onyx: Well, let that idiot know that I'll buy the lands from him, and if he doesn't want to, I'll challenge him, and he'll return to his pack in a coffin.

Rock: Well Onyx, see you soon then...

He left in a fury.

Onyx: Damn you, Boris, disgusting drunkard. You went under the skirts of the Wolf, you damn son of a bitch. If you hadn't died, I would kill you with my own hands.

There was no need to get like this. When the stupid new alpha comes, he'll run away when he sees the mess. He doesn't even have warriors; they all left with him... he'll flee in terror when they attack at night.

Upon reaching his pack, Onyx dismounted his violent Quarter horse, a gift from his father. They practically gave it to him because it couldn't be trained, no one in this world could ride it except him. It took him a lot of effort to tame it, but after much struggle, he managed to assert dominance, and his character taught him who was in charge. He handed the reins to an omega and entered the mansion.

His teenage siblings were in the living room playing video games. He hated those foolish things, but he didn't say anything. He preferred them distracted; they were already suffering too much with their father's death and their mother's depression, locked in her room day and night.

He went upstairs to see his mother and found her crying, just like every day since his father's murder.

Onyx: Mom, you need to get better. Ruby needs you.

Jade: Even if I wanted to, I can't... I wish you understood my pain...

Onyx: Ruby is five years old; she needs her mother. You're abandoning her...

Onyx: Losing your mate is like dying in life... don't you have any will to live?

Onyx: You need to put in a little effort. Are you making me force you to eat?

Jade: I can't even swallow; it makes me sick. I'm sorry, this is stronger than me, I can't handle it.

Onyx: You need to try harder!!!

Jade: Don't yell at me! I don't feel well...

She leaves slamming the door.

His little sister is with some nannies; their mother isn't fit to be with her. He doesn't know what he will do with his mother; it seems like she's going crazy.

His beta awaits him in the backyard, the new beta being his most trusted friend. When an alpha assumes leadership, a new beta also takes their place, and the previous one retires... to rest or pursue other activities.

Alex: Did you go to Shadow Moon?

Onyx: Yes. And guess what happened?

Alex: What happened?

Onyx: That good-for-nothing Boris was in the Confederation, and they're sending a new alpha.

Alex: Easy. If he doesn't sell, challenge him to a duel.

Onyx: Yes, I know, I'll do that. But it bothers me that things are deviating from the original plan. You know my patience is nonexistent.

Alex: Do you know who it is? Or what their name is?

Onyx: I don't know who they are or what their name is; Rock doesn't know either.

Alex: When do they arrive?

Onyx: I only know it's in these days.

Alex: You'll have to wait.

Onyx: You say it as if it were easy for me.

Uma: Grandpa, I'm so excited.

Soromir: You know you'll be the first alpha, right?

Uma: Hasn't there been a female alpha before?

Soromir: Never in the history of our race. You're the first.

Uma: You'll be proud of me, grandpa. I'll work and take that place forward.

Soromir - You don't need to do anything, I'm always proud of you, go make amends with Marcus...

Uma - I'm going now, but before I leave, I want to reconcile with him.

Soromir - If you need anything, just call me and I'll come to help you. If you need more money, let me know and I'll transfer it to you.

Uma - Dad has made a deposit into my account, it's a lot of money, I don't think I'll even use half of it. But I know I can count on you, grandpa. I'm going to see my other grandparents.

Sam - Daughter, I need to talk to you about something...

Uma - Yes, mom... What do you need?

Sam - You have to hide your magical abilities, here everyone knows who you are, but in that place, the packs... they're not so familiar with these things, and they might find it difficult to understand who you are.

Uma - I won't use it, I don't need to...

Uma - If you find yourself in danger... you won't have any other option but to use it, but as you know, in other activities, you can do without it.

Uma - I won't use magic in front of the savages.

Sam - Don't call them that...

Uma - Soromir told me they were savages and ignorant.

Sam - Your grandfather visited that area about four hundred years ago... haha... I suppose things must have changed.

Uma - I hope they walk on two legs.

Sam - You're just like Em. Oh goddess moon!

The smallest of the Wolf family heads towards her grandparents' mansion.

Uma - Granmaaaa!

Kate - I'm in the kitchen, sweetheart...

Uma - Hi, I'm doing the farewell tour.

Kate - My dear, I'm going to miss you so much...

Uma - I'll come often, grandma... and I'll call you frequently.

Kate - I wish you wouldn't go...

Uma - Did you know that I'll be the first alpha in our race's history?

Kate - I'm very proud of you.

Marcus - I'm proud of you too.

Uma - Grandpa... give me a hug, I'm almost forgiving you for what you did to me.

Marcus - You know I would never do anything to harm you, but you understand that no one else has the level you have, you're the best warrior I've had in my entire life.

Uma - Thank you grandpa, I understand, my thoughts are starting to clear up.

Kate - When are you leaving?

Uma - Tomorrow morning.

Marcus - And what time will you arrive at the pack?

Uma - I think before noon. Dad will talk to the beta so he can pick me up at the airport.

Kate - Take warm clothes, the area is very cold, even though it's still summer there, their summer is our autumn and their autumn... is a harsh winter.

Uma - I'm taking a lot of warm clothes, lots of clothes, lots of shoes... and if I'm missing anything, I'll buy it there.

Kate - Marcus, our granddaughter will be the first alpha in history.

Marcus - I know, Soromir keeps boasting about it to everyone.
