She Took My Son, I Took Everything From Her
Chapter 9
As the day of Thane's return from his training abroad approached, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Anna and Theon, on the other hand, were excited, counting down the days until their "family" could be reunited.
On the day of Thane's arrival, Anna and Theon accompanied me to the airport, their lips curled up into smile with excitement. As we waited for Thane to emerge from customs, Anna couldn't stop talking about all the things she had planned for Thane's homecoming.
When Thane finally appeared, Anna and Theon rushed to envelop him in a tight hug, tears of joy rolling down their cheeks. I was standing back with a faint smile on my face while watching the reunion.
After the emotional greeting, Thane turned to me, his eyes gleaming with anticipation as he came up to me and said, "Mom, now that I'm back, it's time for you to step down as alpha. I'm ready to take my rightful place as leader of the pack."
I raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Thane's bold declaration.
"Is that so?" I asked in a calm voice.
Thane nodded. He was looking quite confident as he said,"Yes, Mom. I've been trained by the best, and I'm ready to lead our pack to greatness."
Anna and Theon exchanged a meaningful glance, and their faces were flushed with excitement. I, on the other hand, felt a sense of calmness from inside. I had been expecting this moment for a long time, and I was ready.
"Very well, Thane," I said in a firm voice before adding, "I'll call a gathering of the pack elders, and we'll discuss the terms of the leadership transition."
Thane's face lit up with excitement, and Anna and Theon couldn't help cheering and hugging each other in celebration. But I just smiled, my eyes never leaving Thane's face. Little did they know, I had a surprise in store for them.
As we made our way back to our pack's territory, I couldn't help but think about the events that had transpired during Thane's absence. Theon's infidelity with Anna had become more brazen, and I had caught them on several occasions, sneaking around and stealing kisses.
One particular incident stood out in my mind. I had been out on a walk, enjoying the moonlight, when I stumbled upon Theon and Anna embracing in the shadows. They had been so caught up in their passion that they hadn't even noticed me standing there, watching them.
I had felt a pang of sadness and betrayal, but I had pushed it aside, focusing on my plan for the future.
As we arrived at our pack's territory, I could sense the tension in the air. The pack elders were waiting for us, their faces grave with concern.
The elders were not in favor of handing the Pack in Thane's hands. They had observed Thane for years and knew he was incapable of leading the pack. But, I had given a promise to Thane years ago that when he returned, I would convince the elders for his ownership. That's why after his arrival, he seemed impatient. He kept asking me when I was going to announce him the Alpha of the Pack and I knew Theon and Anna were also looking for the day impatiently.
I didn't hang them for long and immediately called a gathering to make the announcement.
The gathering of the pack elders began, and I stood tall, my eyes locked on Thane's. I knew that this was just the beginning of a long and brutal fight, but I was determined to emerge victorious.
In the presence of all the elders and the alphas of our alliance packs, even the Alpha who was. beaten up by Thane years ago, I announced Thane as the next Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack.
Thane's lips curled into a smile. He finally got what he wanted for years. I had fulfilled his one more wish. But, he didn't know it was not that easy. It wasn't a Ferrari he could easily get from me. I silently observed the sunken faces of the Elders. There was a calmness on their face. A kind of calmness you could see before the typhoon and I knew they were going to burst soon.
