Teaser / First Chapter
Part 1
Raiden’s blue eyes slowly opened as he looked up in to the eyes of his loving mother and father who smiled as they looked down at their son. Smiling Raiden instantly knew that they were his parents who else could those loving faces be? Beside him his small sister Aniu opened her brown eyes and both parents looked at each and smiled. The spirit Pack Alphas had had pups who were heirs to their throne.
Small puppy Raiden jumped up playfully as his pup sitters legs as the pup sitter frowned and walked away as Raiden played with their tail biting it with his sharp little teeth. He was completely black except for two white spots on the top of his ears his sister was the complete opposite Aniu had pure white fur, brown eyes and black tips at the top of her ears. Aniu was calm and collected whilst her brother was loud and adventurous, he loved to explore and always wished to be older so he could explore the world, but unknown to both of them they had pre-determined destiny’s that the elders had already picked out for them.
From some small bushes Raiden’s dad Jazer walked out and both Raiden and Aniu ran forward to greet their father who smiled down at them.
‘Dad lets go exploring the pup-sitter won’t let me go any where!’ Raiden said jumping around playfully at his fathers legs.
‘Not today son, today Aniu must come with me.’ His father finished as Aniu looked up at her father and walked towards him as Raiden sat back down looking disappointed. Raiden watched as his sister and his father walked away leaving him alone as black clouds began to form in the distance.
As Raiden laid in the small den with his pup-sitter outside the thunder and rain scared him and he cowered at the back of the cave wanting nothing more then his mother to come and comfort him, but unknown to him his parents at that exact moment were predetermining his fate.
‘We can not risk letting this pup live!’ One of the elders barked at the Alphas whilst Aniu slept as her mothers feet oblivious to the storm outside. ‘Tamaya being the daughter of the Great Spirit Pack Alpha before you, you must agree with me?’ The elder turned to Raidens mother Tamaya who sighed as she looked at her mate who looked just as concerned,
‘I will not have my only son killed.’ She said sternly looking at the small gathering of elders who all looked very old and frail.
‘If that pup lives we have foretold he will bring our destruction this can not be prevented in anyway my Alpha.’ An elderly female said looking at Tamaya who frowned slightly.
‘Raiden will not be harmed; if he is you will answer to me.’ Tamaya said standing up and turning around as an elder stepped forward.
‘See, he is already turning us against each other.’ Stopping Tamaya looked back at the elder and at Aniu who was now cuddled up beside her father.
‘What about my daughter Aniu?’ She asked solemnly.
‘She will bring prosperity and peace to our land…ying and yang were never meant to be Tamaya so listen to me please.’
‘I stand by my thoughts; my son will not be harmed.’
‘He will not be harmed if you promise…if we all promise that no one influences him. This means we must avoid contact at all costs if he turns on us he’ll kill us all…’ The elder looks around, ‘…with no one influencing then he will not be influenced to fulfill his destiny, we must make sure that young Aniu fulfils hers but her brother never gets the chance.’
Tamaya growled low as she shook her head and turned around, ‘My son will have the same pup hood and be treated like your future Alpha understand me?’ All the elders nodded as Tamaya marched outside in to the cold rain.
Meanwhile in the small den silver tears slowly slid down Raidens face as he looked up at the den entrance waiting for his mother, but his mother never came and the small pup cried himself to sleep cowering at the back of a cold damp cave with only a teenage pup-sitter who cared not for his wellbeing as she laid down trying to sleep.
Slowly the rain cleared as Tamaya sat on a large rock and looked up in to the sky with a sad face. How could her son bring destruction to her pack? The Spirit Pack was famous for being one of peace and serenity they always cared for each other so then why must he pack turn on this heritage? What was destined for her only son Raiden?
Weeks later whilst Raiden and Aniu were playing outside their den under the watchful eye of their father Jazer a wolf bounded out from the forest and ran up to Jazer and began whispering to him causing the two small pups to turn around and watch them.
‘Why is dad so upset Raiden?’ Aniu asked turning to Raiden who looked at his father who was hanging his head low tears swelling up in his eyes.
‘I don’t know Aniu…’ Raiden said looking at his father whilst inside the small pup had a horrible feeling.
‘Being the dominate male only because my mate was of royal blood means that her bloodline must continue and until young Aniu is old enough to take over Tamaya’s brother Revalis will be the new Alpha…’
Stepping forward a large black and brown wolf looked down at the pack and at Raiden and Aniu who were both equally upset at the death of their mother. Raiden turned to look at the elders who all look pleased and at that moment his eyes flashed but he didn’t get to say anything because someone picked him up and began to carry him away from his sister.
‘Where am I going?’ Raiden asked looking up at the wolf as he waved to his sister who watched her brother leave. When the wolf didn’t answer Raiden continued by saying, ‘When can I go and play with Aniu again?’ Still the wolf didn’t answer as he walked further and further away from his sister and father not knowing that the death of his mother was only the beginning.
