Nick POV

He watched as Luna Lindy, Gamma James and his Mate Gabby, plus the packs Beta Adam all strolled into the Alpha's office. It surprised him, not the Beta, that was completely normal for this kind of dealings. Jeremy would normally be in this office as well but currently occupied. The Luna and the Gamma's he found odd. Luna Lindy was carrying a note book and pen, odd, looked like she was going to take notes it seemed, did Alpha Corey not have an assistant.

"You look a little confused son?" Alpha Corey commented.

"I don't understand why your Luna is here, I get the Beta, and even the Gamma's i guess, being that they are Lucinda's twin sisters guardians, but." Nick let his eyes fall on the Luna "I don't get her."

"Why would I not be here, Lucinda is my pack member and I want to look out for her."

"No disrespect Luna Lindy, but you're just the Luna. You have no say in this matter. Alpha's make the decisions on pack alliances. So if you're here to catch gossip, you can just leave."

His words stung her, he watched as her demeanour changed and she became angry. Actually watched as her wolf pushed forward and snarled at him, unusual reaction for the woman. Rip ignored her, she was of no threat to them. Just a she-wolf. "That is very disrespectful." she snarled at him "I'll have you know, my opinion on pack matters are valued, not just by the Alpha but by my pack."

Nick's mouth twitched into a smile Her Pack so funny.

"Alright calm down." Alpha Corey got up and walked over to his Mate, Nick watched as the man slid his hands around her and pulled her into him, for a cuddle it seemed. "I'm sure he didn't mean it like that." he murmured softly in her ear, obviously trying to calm her down. "He'd better apologise or I'll put a stop to it right now."

Nick raised an eyebrow, she would put a stop to it, like she could. She was just a glorified baby making machine. "And how do you plan to do that?" he shot at her, wow this woman, really thought she held power in this pack. From what he knew of Luna's they held nothing, just the position in the Alpha's bed.

"Like this." she snapped at him, and yanked herself our of her Mates arms "I do not agree to this mating." she turned to Alpha Corey "I will not subject my Lucinda to that barbarian." she pointed right at him with an angry finger and to Nick's shock stormed out of the office, Alpha Corey heading off after her, calling out her name, she was fast for such a tiny woman.

What was wrong with this pack, he shook his head dismayed.

Gabby stood and followed as well "Goodbye Alpha Nicholas." she nodded her head towards him, her tone implied he was about to asked to leave. Actually asked to leave and without his Mate. What the hell was going on around here. Were the women in charge? He was sitting alone in the Alpha's office, with the Beta and the Gamma, he turned his eyes to Beta Adam "What the hell just happened?"

"You're about to be ejected from the pack at Luna's orders, without your Mate I believe." he answered

"What?" he shot to his feet "She can't do that, is just a woman."

He heard the two of them snort and half laugh at him, Adam walked right over to him 'Nick, may I call you Nick."

"Go ahead." he nodded, not really liking the amusement in his tone.

"What do you know, about Luna's positions within a pack? I have heard how you got your pack, about both your brothers and how they both became Alpha's of your pack, and even your father, didn't any of them have a Luna?"

"Of course they did, my father had 5 Luna's. Produced several heirs, rejected them when he found something else that interested him more. My brothers much the same, they are just their to sate an Alpha's needs why." "Hmm...Interesting take on a Luna." he heard the Gamma murmur, dismay in his voice.

"Well Nick, have you actually looked into what an actual Luna's position is. Title and Rank is important. Perhaps you should, they are not just for you to gratify yourself with. As much as that is what you've seen, all your life I suppose...you would be dead wrong. You might want to go pack. If Alpha Corey can't calm his Mate down. She will never agree to allow you to taking Lucinda off pack territory... And before you go all, she's my Mate, I'm an Alpha...that won't matter. There is only you and your Beta here now, I believe. 2 against a whole pack. 48 of which I can absolutely guarantee with out a doubt, will follow Luna Lindy's order, without any hesitation and step between you and...your Luna."

Nick turned at the sound of the Gamma chuckling, they weren't joking and he knew it, but what was so funny, he was clearly missing something. He watched as Beta Adam headed off after his Alpha and Luna.

Was tapped on the shoulder by the Gamma "You might want to go and read up on Luna's. The pack library is on the first floor, east wing. You can't miss it." then he to headed for the door.

"Wait, what am I missing?" he asked the Gamma.

"A lot it appears. You might be a powerful Alpha...but you clearly don't have," he tapped his chin in thought for a moment "perhaps...were not brought up the correct way, and don't understand what an actual Luna is, or the position a Luna actually holds within a pack. Oh and you'd better be willing to apologise to Luna Lindy, because if you can't sway her..." James left it unsaid, then followed his Beta and Alpha out of the office as well, all of them it seemed going after the Luna to try and calm her down. What the hell was going on around here. Perhaps he needed to go and read up on Luna's. He knew what a Luna was, had seen his father create 5 of them, one after the other, dismissing the previous one for the next one, once he found a stronger she-wolf to mate with, that would produce him a stronger heir.

Even his own mother had been replaced when he was 4 years old, for another woman. He had half a dozen half siblings, only one actual full blooded sibling his little sister, Mary, two years younger than he was.

Nick did not like the turn of events in Alpha Corey's office. Luna Lindy out right rejecting his Mate Bond with Lucinda, the girl wasn't even here to make the decision for herself. How can a Luna have the power to do that?

The Luna's he had known, had held no power at all, his father claimed what he wanted and when the mood took him bedded when and where he wanted his current Luna. Most of them had just sat around waiting on him, to pay them attention.

He'd been a cruel Alpha to his mates it seemed, didn't seem to acknowledge anything about them, Nick had actually heard him ranting at his last Luna "Your just here to produce me an heir, so do it already, you have no say in how I run my pack, don't ever think you do."

His father had told all his sons, that a Luna of a pack's, job was to produce a good strong heir to take over and that was it. To never let a woman walk all over you. As the Alpha you are in charge and if your so called Luna didn't like it. You could just reject her and find another. There would always be, plenty of she-wolves out there willing to f**k an Alpha male.

It was true, Nick had plenty of she-wolves notched on his belt, there was never a shortage of body's he could f**k, when and where he wanted.

He made his way up the stairs and found the library on the first floor, it was massive. Much more extensive then the one his father had kept. He'd never see a book about Luna's back in his pack for that matter. He walked around not knowing exactly what he was looking for, when he came across a whole section tilted "The Luna's Library." he couldn't believe it, Luna's had a whole library section dedicated just to them, strolled down it reading titles on the books. There were books on all sorts of things. How to plan pack events. What mating balls were for. How to organise mating balls. How to properly invite Alpha's to the pack. How to seat Alpha's by rank and pack size at functions. Planning of 18th birthday parties for she-wolves and male wolves, apparently different. The correct way to party plan for Ranked and non Ranked members of a pack. How to negotiate deals and terms of female pack members that wanted to be ranked up. What the proper Ranking system was. Where to house Visiting Ranked members. Monitoring of newborn pups. Counselling of pack members.

His brain couldn't cope, one woman to do all of these things. He'd never once, seen a Luna do anything at all in his whole life. Other than mate and produce and heir, exactly what his father had told him they were for.

"The Luna's Role." caught his eye, he plucked it off the shelf and sat down with it, it was old, like very old, and well worn obviously used before, and a lot he guessed by the multiple dog tagging and folds on the pages, some of it was underlined too.

To his complete and utter surprise, a Luna was not just a baby making machine. Her roll in the pack was to stand beside the Alpha and assist him with pack decisions, to actually handle the lower and some of the really important pack decisions. Luna's were considered to be the same Rank as the Alpha and were respected as he was. Her word and orders were as good as her Alpha's, she was not below him, but his actual equal.

Well that was not what he was taught, no wonder they were laughing at him, it appeared his view on the situation was more than a little backwards. He had just made a royal a*s of himself, again it seemed.

If a Luna's orders were as good as an Alpha's, Luna Lindy had literally just informed him, he could not be mated to his mate, she wouldn't allow it. This was not good. He made himself comfortable in the library collected a few other books from the shelves and continued to educate himself.

Hell there was an official Luna ceremony and everything, he'd never seen one of those. Wouldn't even know how to do that. "Mark and Mate your Luna" is all he was ever told he had to do. So he'd just presumed that was all he had to do.

Luna's it appeared were revered and trusted by pack members, pack members could ask for an audience and visit the Luna's office on many matter's. "A Luna's office" he had heard Luna Lindy had an office when he'd arrived, thought that was silly, but now it seemed it was actually a real thing. A place for her to work from, to do all her duties. Goddess he was brought up completely backwards by his father, this was not going to go in his favour.

A Luna was also completely responsible for making sure mating balls were held on a regular basis, so that their pack members could find their mates and create a happy harmonious pack environment. Responsible for keeping track of pups to be born, pups that were born, registering their births officially with the pack, and visiting, each new mother the day her pup was born, to give a Luna's blessings to the child. What the hell was a Luna's blessing? He wondered.

The Luna was in charge of orphaned pups after attacks, to place them with caring and loving new families. Determine punishment for those without wolves, she was supposed to be fair and just, less harsh than the Alpha, and pack members would trust and rely on her.

When the alpha was away her word was law. She was also supposed to put herself on the line for her female pack members and their children, to defend them against other invading forces. Try to negotiate truces and keep pack members as safe as possible, in the event her Mate was killed.

Goddess her job was almost like his, only she didn't have to go off into battle, stayed behind to protect and save the women and children.

It was also written that she was supposed to bring balance to the Alpha and his pack. A true destined Mate gifted by the Goddess herself to an Alpha, would also make the pack stronger, just by being their because the Alpha in turn would also be happier. The Goddess herself would smile down on them, bless their pack herself, if the goddess-gifted mated pair were loyal and true to each other. Their bond strengthening everyday, til it was unbreakable and they would love each other completely, defend and die to protect the other.

Nick was feeling very e, how was he supposed to do all of this, it was not how he was raised, and though he had tried to be a fair Alpha, he definitely had no idea how to treat a Luna it seemed. A Mate yes, s*x was easy and he was good at it. But it seemed Beta Adam was right. A Luna was not just there to gratify his needs and produce him an heir. Which was what he had been taught his whole life.
