Betrayed from Birth – Alpha’s Unvalued Daughter Chapter 63
Graham's
POV
It took 2 hours of driving to get here, and I don't even know where here actually is just yet. We pulled up at some old rusty gates and were waiting on the new Alpha to come to the gate. This place is in serious need of repair, but the gate guards looked like they could lift my SUV, so this looks to be a very physically strong pack. Silas motioned me over to the side and quietly said, "The Alpha took over a few months ago. He is young, and the pack is strong but broke. It is also in need of a Luna. I know this sounds bad, but we are here to see if he would like to make one of our daughters his Luna. He wants his pack to grow and be strong and is looking for an Alpha or Beta mate. I didn't mention it before but this is it. No one will take us or they risk a war with Cole and Brandon. This guy is supposed to be pretty handsome, and only 22, so he should be good for either one of our daughters to want him for their mate. He wants to build his pack up and make it grow with strong pups to take it over from him. He was the former Beta, but the Alpha couple died in a car accident about 4 months ago. They did not leave an heir, and according to the pack by-laws, the strongest one at the end was Alpha. It took a month for them to get it done, and he came out on top. He is physically the strongest one in the pack, so he is now Alpha. He will need help in learning the ropes. We can both be of help to him."
"This, this is the only thing that you could come up with?" I asked angrily.
"In a 2-hour time frame time? Yea, this is it. You know people are looking for us. My phone was pinging its a*s off in the car, with "where are you" texts that my wife kept deleting. You probably have them too. Stop wanting the Ritz, Graham, and buckle up and brace for it, because this is our life now. I really think that this could work out for us. There is a price on our heads. This is a lower pack because they lack funds. There is extra land for sale on either side of this place. I think that you could help them out, and they can do the same for us. But we can wait to see what they want to do. If neither of our girls wants to become his Luna, we can leave. No harm, no foul. I can have Billie drive while I make some more calls, but it is not like people are wanting to welcome us with open arms. This pack operates to a different drummer. We can help pull them into the 21st century to get the pack up to speed. Let's just give this a chance, OK?" Silas said, and I have to admit that he is right. I just hate that this is where we are now.
"Don't we need to warn, or at least tell the girls? I mean, I would like to know if I was going to be pawned off, just for us to join the pack" I hissed back at Silas.
"I told you that they don't HAVE to accept it. But it is the Luna position. He doesn't want the girls from here, not of them have a good enough rank to make him the strong pups he wants. I think that there is a big opportunity here. To help this pack grow and I think it will be perfect for us. Maybe not at first, but working together it eventually will be. It won't hurt to meet with him, OK? If we don't like it, we can leave. No harm, no foul" Silas told me and I shake my head in frustration. I will meet him, but I will not pawn off my daughter to save our asses, we can go somewhere else if we need to.
"Are you two through speaking? I have been here for the last minute. I think that it will be up to me, on making the decision on if you stay, especially on the Luna part. But I don't mind meeting with you" I hear a deep voice at the gate and turned around to see a pretty large guy standing there with four large men behind him. I am embarrassed, and I hope that he didn't hear the whole conversation. We probably look like idiots to him, and that is actually a good thing. He won't be totally on guard against us if he thinks we are idiots.
"I am sorry, I don't know where we are. My friend here is the one who called. We are in need of protection, and I hope we can work this out. There are 6 of us in total. Our wives, and daughters, are with us, we all need sanctuary. I am sorry if we offended you at all. This has been a hard day" I told them.
"I imagine it is, I have already received a phone call asking if you had come here about an hour ago. I told them no because at the time you hadn't. I am not a big fan of the council being in my business anyway. But, out of curiosity, why should I let you 6 into my pack? What can you do to help out my pack?" their Alpha asked.
"I don't know yet. I don't know where you need any help. It seems like you are well-trained and strong. I cannot know where improvements can be made without seeing the pack. But Silas was mentioning that the land around you is for sale, which I can help with. With more land, you can expand, and grow like you want to. I no longer want to be an Alpha. I just wanted a house on your land, and for us to be safe here in your pack. Whatever the price on our head is, I will pay it to you, on top of the land. I just want us to not have to keep looking over our shoulders. I should tell you that Alpha Cole from Blood Walker and Alpha Brandon from Black Adder are both looking for us" I told him honestly and he sneers at their names. Apparently, he isn't worried about them at all. Chapter 63

"If I choose to let you in here, you won't have to worry about them anymore. The land you offered is good, and the price on your heads on top of it is acceptable to me. I welcome you to the Black Moon pack" their Alpha said and then motioned for the gates to be opened. He then motioned for us to follow him as he headed back to a big truck parked near the gate and he and his men got in and headed back into the forest. We followed along behind, and I realized that the first thing that needs to be done is the road into the pack. No wonder he has a lifted truck, my SUV was having difficulty navigating the large potholes as we followed them back to the packhouse. We followed behind him as he negotiated a long 4-mile road, heavily lined with trees, and even more potholes. I know at night it will be hard to navigate unless you are familiar with the terrain. We drove into a clearing and about a mile ahead I see a massive structure. I truly believe they built their packhouse themselves, with logs from the trees they cut down in this cleared area. They have clearly built onto it several times over, and I am praying that they at least have running water. Because right now, I am concerned about the state of our new home.
This will be a nightmare for me if they don't have running water, both Reagan and Cassandra will be complaining if they don't. But for our safety, I do not mind pouring some money into Black Moon. I can see the expressions on my wife and daughter's faces. I know that they are highly concerned about our new living conditions. I know that I will need to speak to them both as I can tell exactly what is about to happen. We were blessed with all we had at Silver Blade, but we cannot afford to look down on our new pack. I can make do with what they have to spare here for us until we can have our own home built. I just can't afford to piss anyone here off, especially the 5 men in the truck we are following. They are all incredibly fit, and clearly train every day to stay in that kind of shape. Silas and I would be no match for them in a fight. I shudder to think what will happen to the women in our group if that happens. I feel a great deal of pressure on me right now to keep them safe. I know Silas feels the same way about his family. We are only here to try to keep our families safe.
"Do NOT get us kicked out of here. There is a price on our heads. I can put money into this place and I can see about getting our own home built the way we want it. Just be polite, and don't be rude, Reagan" I told them.
"Dad, why are you just telling me?" Reagan whined from the back seat, and I just pray that she can keep her mouth shut. These men are not to be played with.
"Because your mother knows how to be polite, and not rude" I shot back at her.
I hear her growl of anger from the backseat, and she folds her arms across her chest. I am better with her sullen and quiet than complaining about her new pack. These guys don't look like they have a sense of humor, and they are very strong. I hope for our sake that Reagan realizes the very real option that we are not truly safe just yet. These men may be honorable, or not, we have no way of knowing that right now. We are now at their mercy, and we may never see the other shoe drop before we could be dealt with. They could take our money, and kill us all. I do not know them, I have never heard of this pack, and I just wanted my family to be safe from Cole and Brandon. This is new for all of us, and we need to tread very carefully here. If they get pissed off, all they have to do is call the council and report us. Then it will be all over with for us. I hope that I still have my charm to sway them with. That and the money to help them get their pack where they want it to be. I know that the new Alpha has a vision for his pack, and I believe that I can help him achieve it. I think in time, I can make myself invaluable to him.
"Reagan, this is the only safe haven available to us right now. We have to make this work. I don't know what is going to happen to us here, but I do know that this Alpha is looking for his Luna. Silas just told me, so please think before you act here. We have no control over anything right now. We cannot afford to offend them, the council has already called them to see if we had taken refuge here. This is a strong pack, but I think that we can offer them ways to make it better for them, and more comfortable for us. I need to show the Alpha that I have value for both him and the pack. I will see if we can't get our own home built here soon, but for right now, play along until we know what we are up against" I told her as we pulled in front of the packhouse.
We parked next to his truck and we all waited for the men to exit first. I am nervous, I do not know how this is going to end up. We honestly could be killed and my bag of money taken by these men. I do have my gun in the top of my bag, and the duffle bag is over my shoulder, but again, it is hard to protect yourself in the unknown. I do know that both girls had rejected a mate, and been rejected by their second-chance mates, so they would not be a true mate, to any of these men. They could only be chosen mates, but I had done the same thing when I found my beautiful mate, Cassandra, and I wanted her to be my mate. I know that Reagan's looks could potentially get her one of these ranked wolves if she chose to do so, and played her cards right. They were all standing behind the Alpha's truck talking in a low tone when we got out of our SUV. Their conversation suddenly came to a stop, and I can see them all staring at Reagan right now.
They were all interested in her, it was evident from all of them. I can see that even the Alpha was interested in her. That would be the best situation here, she would have his ear, and we could make this work for us very well. She wasn't dressed up, but this wasn't a rich or fancy pack either. There were meat and potatoes men, and not lobster bisque. I have to fight the smile off my face, that was the very best-case scenario for us. I see Cheryl come from her parent's SUV to walk up to Reagan, and they were watching her as well. This was the very best outcome for both of our families. I already see that Silas has noted it as well, and he is happy about this change of events too. I see that the girls will be able to choose the man that they are the most interested in, so it worked out well for them too.

"I didn't introduce myself at the gate, I am Alpha Blake Roberts. I am glad you are all here. It is dinner time for us now, so please join us for a meal, and then we can go to my office to discuss your plans here further" Blake tells us and then motions us to follow them in. I watch as the last two men wait for us to follow Blake and the other two men. Smart on their part, and I try to keep a visual on the one nearest me. Thankfully, they both seem to be watching the girls as they head up the stairs to enter the packhouse. I don't sense aggression from them, I sense interest.
The Alpha and his men have a large table at the head of the room, but it is not on a raised platform. I think he likes for his people to come to him when they have something to discuss. That is nice, but a newbie move. He won't have time for that. It would be overwhelming and too time-consuming. I will give him that tidbit of information later on. We take up seats at an empty table and I put my bag at my feet after stepping over the strap. If it moves, I will know. I see that there is a woman at the table with Alpha Blake, she is sitting at his right hand. She is watching us, actually watching the girls, with a stare. She is not happy with the new faces in the pack. She is attractive, but nowhere near as beautiful as Reagan. She was also a blonde, but not a natural one like my wife and daughter are. I think that Reagan has got a really good chance of becoming the Luna here.
I see that the girl at his table is constantly trying to get his attention as the men all grab food for their plates at the head table. He is not happy about being questioned. She may piss him off and get sent away, that would be even better for Reagan. We all go and get our food two at a time, to eat. The food is good, better than I expected, and it doesn't seem like it will be a problem eating here. I can see the Alpha watching Reagan as she eats, and Goddess, she is not liking the food. Why, why, can't she listen to me at all? She is too willful. She has never had to eat something she doesn't like, and the staff at Silver Blade knew what her favorites were to give her options to eat. I want to kick her under the table, but since we are being watched, I have to link her. "We are being watched. Please stop making that face and eat. The food here is actually not bad" I linked to her.
"Dad, they don't even have salad here. I don't want to eat this slop, I don't even know what is in it. I don't want to stay here, I think we can do better than this" Reagan linked me back.
"We can't do better than this. Remember your fear from earlier today, people are looking for us, to kill us. Are you saying death is better than staying here? Really, Reagan? You really have a chance at being the Luna here, he can't stop looking at you. So, stop with the attitude. You need to realize that we could all be killed here even and go missing forever, and no one will know where we went. Stop, please, and work with me. I think that with time, we can run this place. So work your magic, and stop being so judgmental" I linked her back. I can see her sigh, and then give me a nod. She already knows what she needs to do.
I go back to eating and the next time I look up I see Reagan give a wink to the Alpha, and he gives her a wink back. I am praying that this will be easier than we thought it would. Because this is it, there is no safe place for us now. We need to learn to like it here, or we forfeit our lives, and the latter is not even an option.
