THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

KOL’S POV

As I walk across the dark lawn that leads to my chambers, all I can think about is the battle that’s coming up on Saturday. It’s going to be rough, dangerous and fun, because I’m going to kill my enemies!

This Elemental Battle has been going on for so long already, right now I just want it to end.

I want peace to reign once more, especially now that I’m with my family and I’ve found my mate.

I can’t wait for the time when we will finish this battle and everything will back to normal. It will be so cool!

My brother, Hardin has been through so much already, I want him to rest from all this trouble. I know becoming Paramount Alpha is still just as hectic, but, at least there’s going to be peace all round.

It’s still quite dark and the it’s freezing cold out here. While I was all hot and ready to rip throats apart, I wasn’t cold but right now, I feel like I’m going to freeze in the few minutes.

As I walk on in silence, I suddenly see a bright light shine before me, almost destroying my iris and I quickly close my eyes as I stagger backwards.

“Kol!” I hear a very deep voice call and my eyes immediately shoot open to see who it is that just called me. To my greatest surprise, I see a man dressed in a white garment, standing before me with a smile on his face.

A man I recognize to be my father.

I scrutinize him from head to toe, just be sure. It’s the same man who once caught me years ago in this same pack, stealing food from the food from the pack farm, but let me go.

My father.

“Dad” I call in a calm voice and he chuckles as a tears rolls down his cheek.

I take a step closer to him.

“Dad is this really you!”

“Yes son, it’s me. I’m here to see you.”

“Are you really here to see me? You know, Hardin’s chambers is the other way”

“Kol, I’m here to see you.” He assures me.

“Oh.. wow. I… I…” I stutter nervously. I have never had a conversation with my dad before. Every time Hardin tells our me our father appeared to him, I would get jealous and wish that he did same to me. Now here is, standing before me in all his glory, but I have nothing to say.

I don’t even know how to breathe!

My heart is pounding so hard in my chest that I fear it’s going hop out of it.

“How have you been son?”

“Well, I’ve been alright. Especially now that I’ve met my brother”

“Kol you have no idea how proud I am of you. Thank you so much for joining your brother in this war”

“He is my brother dad, I couldn’t do otherwise”

“I hope that one day, you find it in your heart to forgive me”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Forgive you?” I ask confused and he nods his head. “For what exactly?”

“For sending you and your mother away. For not being there for you all your life. For letting you grow as a rogue!”

“Dad, I understand that you did us wrong, but it was the law and there was nothing I could do. Besides, it was a good thing I was out there. I am this strong and useful in this war right now because of what I had to go through and also, I have found my family, they have accepted me, that is all what matters”

“Thank you very much Kol. Thank you very much for doing this for your brother.”

“I couldn’t do other wise.”

There is a brief moment if silence.

“I’m glad to see you dad” I say as I look up at him and he smiles. “You know, I got sad whenever Hardin told me you appeared to him, I always wished you did same to me, even if it was just once. Now here you are. Thank you for showing up”

“I had to, I couldn’t do otherwise”

“I wish I could hug you” I say with a calm voice and more tears stream down his cheeks as he smiles.

“Come closer” He instructs and I take a few steps closer to him. He then wraps his arms around am and my eyes shoot open in shock when I actually feel them around me. I quickly wrap my hands around him and let out a loud cry of joy when I feel my arms around him.

My father.

This is the first time I’m hugging my dad and I’m so excited.

This is what I have wanted for ages!

My dream finally came true!

He hugs me tighter as we both cry in each other’s arms. I can’t believe this is happening!

“But dad, Hardin said you always come in the form of a ghost”

“Yeah, but I begged the moon goddess to give me this one chance so I can hug you. This is actually the last time I will ever be showing myself on earth and I wanted to meet you”

“Thank you so much dad. I’m so happy you did this for me”

“Kol. I want you to know that that I have always loved you and many times I wished to show myself to you, but I just couldn’t. That’s why made sure to always send you stuff, that’s why I made sure you were comfortable.”

“I know dad, I know you loved me. Your hands were tight, that’s why you didn’t introduce yourself”

“I’m glad you understand. Come on, I wanna show you something” He says as he turns around and starts to walk away.

I wipe off the tears from my eyes and follow him to wherever he’s taking me to. This is more than a dream come true.

I still can’t believe I just hugged my dad. I can’t wait to tell Hardin all about this tomorrow.
