Chapter 22

RANDALL POV

A WEEK LATER

“Who has a problem with me as the new Alpha?” I yelled while standing over the dead body of their guard. I had killed him because he tried to defend my birthright from me. He stopped me from venturing into the pack because he didn’t know who I was and said that they already had an Immortal Alpha. This has got to be a joke of some kind. Because I knew this was my pack, it still had the same name, just that they moved location and this guy that they talked about, Alex. It was never his in the first place, but I was cursed and sent on exile and because of that I had lost 1000 years of my life. I had to get it back, I had to make the witches pay for what they did to me.” I said to myself.

Nobody dared oppose me, they all looked terrified and scared. I couldn’t see a familiar face here after all. Everyone I knew was dead a thousand years ago.

But luckily, my story had been spread from generations to generations so they had an inkling of who I was.

“Is this Randall?” One of the women murmured underneath her breath as I heard her clearly and said,

“Yes, my name is Randall, the true Alpha of this pack. I said as they all gasped in shock. Well that is right. After all I am been alive for a thousand years.

“Did you just say your name is Randall? Well I would be a wolf in a kenny.” I heard a familiar voice call out as people started shiufting aside allowing him to pass.

“Who are you and what right do you have to oppose me and make mockery of me? Are you their Alpha? Show your face and I shall battle you to the death.” I yelled as the man climbed up to meet and he turned.

“Impossible! It can’t be.” I said in shock when I saw who it was.

“Shocked? Huh well you shouldn’t be. After all you were not the only one to be immortal by our mother.” He said as I rushed and hugged him tightly.

“ Adrian.” I cried out hugging him as more people were more murmuring loudly but I didn’t care. He hugged me back too and I was happy that I got to reconcile with one of my relatives after a thousand years.

“Name is Alex now but I guess Adrian is cool. What happened? How did you break free? Tell me everything that happened but not long. You need to welcomed back.” He said as he let go of me and turned to face everyone and yelled,

“Listen up, wolves of Wood Creek. This is my brother, the one I spoke about, that I lost a thousand years ago. Make merry and throw a celebration in his name.” He said as everyone began to whistle and clap. I was so happy, after all this time apart, my brother still loved me.

“Come, with me to the pack house. My wife Beatrice is inside. You have to see her and she has to see you. A lot of happened since you were gone. The food will be ready soon.” He said as he led me away into the pack house.

“Where is our mother? I came back for revenge and I won’t stop till I get it.” I said anger shimmering through me for a second as Alex…Adrian{ I will stick with Alex} patted me on my back and said,

“You already came too late, she died over a century ago, I am not even sure you will find her bones to destroy.” He said as I was shocked.

“But why? She made us immortal? Why didn’t she?” I said as Alex replied,

“Oh she did. but being immortal doesn’t mean you will stay alive forever. Her own potions destroyed her, or so I was told. I had no idea what happened. I didn’t feel bad for her. After what she did to you, hiding you so we couldn’t find you, only another witch could. It was painful. I thought I was going to be all alone forever. I have seen a lot of generations in this pack and more to come but it was hopeless since you were not here. But no talks about that, that will just dampen the mood.” He said as he led me inside his house.

“Your house looks way better than the one I knew before. You have artificial suns in your house. And you caught a breeze?” I asked looking at the weird things in his house. There were some things that I could see and recall like chair, but the rest were quite new to me.

“That is called a bulb and an AC. You will get used to this time soon. But first you need to have a bathe. Rico.” He yelled as a lanky boy of about 17 years ran up to us in an instant. Also as if he had been waiting in the shadows all this while.

“Yes Alpha.” He said looking down, not wanting to meet my gaze.

“Escort my brother to a guest room and help him to clean up. Give him my clothes to wear and bring him back here so he can meet my wife Beatrice.” He said as the boy looked up stunned.

“Brother?” He said as I glared at him and kept quiet.

“Yes brother. Did I stutter?” Alex said as Rico quickly shook his head.

“Pardon me Alpha, I didn’t mean to be rude. Of course I will take care of the Alpha’s brother. Please follow me this way sir.” He said looking at me for the first time.

“Brother follow Rico. Please don’t kill him by the way. He is a good kid. He will help you. After you are cleaned, he will bring you back here to eat. Let me go find my wife and tell her the joyful news.” He said as he turned and left leaving me alone with the boy.
