1 Prologue - LEGACY OF THE ALPHARIANS
In the heart of the forest, a secret forbidden love blossomed between Queen Luminar, the powerful werewolf ruler, and Alexander, a human explorer.
Their love sparked when Luminar saved Alexander from a deadly chasing gang.
Alexander, a sturdy man with black hair and kind brown eyes, liked Luminar's grace and beauty. His heart raced whenever he saw her. Luminar, with her charming looks, was attracted to Alexander's strength and thankfulness, not bothered by his human nature.
He would journey from the human world to visit her in the deep forests. As they explored the woods, their bond deepened, and encounters turned more intimate. Moonlight bathed them as they found comfort and peace beneath ancient trees.
Their love stayed secret, known only to the nocturnal forest creatures. They shared secret moments, creating memories, and their passion persisted despite the forbidden nature of their love.
One evening, they held other beneath the moonlit trees, Luminar requesting him to make love with her,Alexander hesitated, "Luminar, we have been doing this almost everyday. Our love is incredible, but I fear the consequences. What if you fall pregnant and will happen to you when they find out?"
Luminar, looking into his eyes, replied softly, "Alexander, our love is a flame that defies boundaries. We must cherish the moments and face whatever challenges come our way."
He agreed, knowing it was complicated. They kept enjoying their secret moments, feeling the forest's whispers supporting their love but also cautioning them.
******************************************
Days later she attended a meeting with the Alpharian elders, Luminar fainted and lost consciousness. Worried, the elders summoned one of the strongest males to carry her. When she woke up, she found herself in the healers hut and discovered she was pregnant.
It sent a shock wave down the elders spine for Luminar never mentioned anything about having an affair.
"Your higness, we are filled with joy and excitement regarding this news...but it has appeared to us that we have no knowledge of who is the lucky man."
Elder Seraphina pointed out.
Luminar sat quiet for a moment trying to figure out how she would explain everything.
The elders grew impatient, and begun to question her about the father. " Your highness can we..."
"Its a human!" she finally mustered the courage to speak.
Disbelief reflected on their faces , not even words could exolain the amount of betrayal they felt. To avoid further insulations, they decided to leave her.
Whispers of their love reached the wolf council, the rulers of Luminar's kind, who considered it a violation of their sacred laws.
The news spread quickly throughout the Alpharian kingdom, with some, condemning Queen Luminar for her forbidden desires, while others understood her inner conflict between her duties as a queen and her heart's undeniable yearning.
Faced with challenges, Her and Alexander refused to bow to tradition and fear. Together in love, they were willing to face whatever came their way.
The elders and council decided to host a meeting to make a decision of what was going to happen to Luminar.
Under the full moon, Queen Luminar and Alexander shared their feelings. "We can't let others dictate our happiness," Alexander said, looking into Luminar's eyes.
Luminar nodded, "I love you, and I won't let anything tear us apart, no matter the consequences or decision they make."
They vowed to protect their love, Alexander expressed his concerns, "The road ahead will be tough. Are you ready for this, Luminar?"
She smiled, "Our love is worth it. I'm ready for whatever comes our way."
They knew their love held the power to shape the delicate balance between humans and werewolves, but no one understood them.
The full moon lit up the forest, making it look magical despite the tension in the air. The Alpharians gathered around their leader, Queen Luminar. Her silver fur shone in the moonlight, showing she was strong and noble. Standing tall and proud, she caught the attention of everyone in her pack.
Luminar always led the Alpharians with bravery and strength, loved by her subjects for protecting and guiding them. But love, a wild force, had struck her heart, bringing change that tested their society.
Her heart belonged to Alexander, the most kind and compassionate being she knew. Their forbidden love was a secret, hidden because humans were off-limits. Ancient Alpharian laws were clear. Whispers of their romance caused a stir, leading to a council meeting to address the broken law.
The pack gathered around the Circle of Elders. The wise old ones confronted Queen Luminar, their faces serious. The air felt heavy with judgment. Elder Agatha, her eyes disappointed, spoke first.
"Luminar, our queen, you're accused of breaking our laws and disrespecting the sacred bond within the pack. How do you plead?"
Luminar spoke with determination, lifting her head to meet Agatha's gaze. "Elder Agatha, wise one, I admit my love for Alexander, but I believe love has no boundaries. My connection with him doesn't lessen my love for the pack. I'd fight to protect you until my last breath."
Elder Marcus, gruff and stern, scoffed. "Love is strong, but it doesn't excuse our responsibilities. Our laws exist for a reason, Luminar. Breaking them jeopardizes all we hold dear."
Conflict sparkled in Luminar's eyes. "Elder Marcus, I get our laws' importance, but consider Alexander's love and compassion for all creatures in the forest. He's not like other humans. Together, we can create a new path, uniting our two worlds in harmony."
Elder Seraphina sighed sorrowfully, and spoke gently. "Luminar, we understand your feelings, but tradition binds us. Ignoring the laws would bring chaos. We cannot allow it."
"As leaders, isn't it our duty to question traditions and adapt? Love can create something new. I beg you, elders, to reconsider," she pleaded with them holding back tears.
Elder Agatha sighed with regret. "Luminar, we've heard you, but our decision stays.
On this day you queen Luminar will give up your crown and face exile."
