The Alpha Has His Heir
Adopted By An Alpha
~~~Recap~~~
When Loretta is a few feet away from me she finnaly speaks. "Daddy, I had a bad dream.
(Raymond's POV)
Daddy... I never thought I would hear someone call me that. Not even my own, but someone else's. There's only two days in my life that can compete with this.
1: The day I met my mate.
2: The day I got to mark and mate her.
A smile spreads over my face. She called me daddy. A tug on my pants brings me out of my daze. I bent over and pick her up. "You called me daddy." I say in disbelief.
She someone else's biological daughter, but she's my daughter now. I look down at her, to see her hair still white. "What's wrong Kiddo?" "I had a bad dweam." she says clinging to my shirt. "Alright little one. Let's get you back to bed."
I take her up to my room. Once we are in the room I set Loretta down on the bed and I take out my guitar. I used to play for Juvia once every week. I go back to the bed and Loretta watches me closely.
Strumming the guitar up I began to sing a song I always wanted to sing to my daughter if by chance I had one, now I do. My dearest Loretta.
Hush, little baby, don't say a word.
Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns brass,
Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke,
Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat
And if that billy goat won't pull,
Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over,
Papa's gonna buy you a dog named Rover
And if that dog named Rover won't bark
Papa's gonna buy you a horse and cart
And if that horse and cart fall down,
You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
Once I finish I look to Loretta to see her fast asleep. I smile. I lost the love of my life, but now I have something just as good. A daughter. I place the guitar back then I climb in next to Loretta.
"Raymond?" I open my eyes to see myself back in the white room. Looking around I see the moon goddess again. I sit up and lower my head to her. "Moon goddess."
"Raise your head Raymond." I do as she says. "Sit down." Once more I sit down on the bed. "You have to listen to this closely Raymond." I look the moon goddess in the eyes and nod.
"They are close." She says. I tilt my head at her. "Who?" I ask. "The threat. The hunters." I growl. "How far out?" I ask. "I may know what happens, but I can't control minds" I growl.
"What the bloody hell can you control!?" I ask in anger. I just got a lovely daughter. I can't loose Loretta, I just got her. Her uncle might want her back, but she's my child now.
I feel something poke my cheek. "Daddy?" I hear a small voice. Then there's another poke on my cheek. "Daddy?" The voice asks again. I open my eyes and come face to face with Loretta.
I look at my bedside alarm to see it's 8:47. Wow, the moon goddess either summoned me very early in the morning or we talked for a couple of hours. I focus my attention back on Loretta.
"What's wrong princess?" I ask my little girl. "There's 2 big scary guys outside," she says. I stand up and walk to the window to see my best warrior Archer and my best tracker Andrew, who just so happens to be twins.
I sigh. I sit Loretta down on the bed and I go out the door telling her that I'll be right back. I walk outside of my house, and up to my men. "Alpha. " They say together lowering their heads respectively.
"Archer, Andrew." I reply back. "What brings you here." I ask. They look at each other with worried glances. "Well?" I ask getting annoyed. "There's humans here from Arabia demanding to see the Alpha." Archer says.
I sigh. I really hope they are not who I think they are. I want to keep my daughter. "Fine. Andrew run back to the pack house tell them I'm on my way. Archer I need you to stay here and watch Loretta."
They nod at me. Andrew shifts and then he starts running to the pack house. I on the other hand turns around and I walk back into the house gesturing Archer to follow me.
We get inside and I walk up to my room. Loretta watches me as I walk into my closet. I quickly dress in jeans and a green shirt. Once I come out I pick Loretta up and I place her on my hips.
I walk with her downstairs and into the living room where Archer is sat waiting. When we get there Loretta looks at Archer and cutely tilts her head to the side.
"Loretta." She looks at me when I say her name. "I have some business to do and Archer will be watching you and keeping you company, okay?" I ask. She nods her head at me saying; "Yes Daddy."
Out of the corner of my eye I see Archer's lips turn up into a soft smile. It's natural for pack members to be loyal and over loving of their Alpha's. Which is why we get so much respect.
I sit her down on one of the couches. "Take care of her." I order before I walk out of the door and into the woods... I stop and shift. After I turned into my wolf I take my clothes in my mouth and I start running to the pack house.
After a 15 minutes run I arrive to see 1 limo and 2 cars I don't recognize in front of the pack house. Oh great. The limo can't be good. I walk into the pack house to meet Harry in the lounge.
"Well?" I ask. "They are in your office Alpha. We tried to keep them out." I nod. "It's alright Harry." I make a gesture to him with my hand. He stands up and starts to follow.
Once we are near my office I already hear whispering inside. Though they keep it quite enough, making it unable for us to hear the actual words.
I open the door, acting like I have no idea what they are looking for. "Gentlemen. We don't get humans demanding to speak to us all that often." I say looking at the king and his guards.
The king does not seem to find it amusing and he keeps glaring at me. "May I ask what I can help you with?" I ask. The king stands up. "My brother an his wife was murdered the other day and my niece was kidnapped."
"What does that have to do with my pack?" I ask. (Knowing very well.) "It was werewolves that did the deed. I want to search your pack to look for my niece. If we find her the people she is with will be punished. Severely."
"The Alpha understands your pain Your Highness but I do not think it a good idea." Harry says. "You don't understand shit." The king hisses out. "I want my niece back!" He shouts. 'Moon goddess please help us. I don't want to loose my sweet little daughter."
"Fine. You may search my pack." I say. 'Please let there be a miracle.' I pray as Harry looks at me with wide eyes. The king nods his head at me in what I presume is a thank you then he walks out the door.
Three hours have passed since this morning and the king is at my house now. 'Please moon goddess.' I send up a last prayer as the king opens my door. When we enter the living room door a tiny body shoots off the couch and onto my leg screaming, "Daddy!"
The little girls hair is black and her eyes are a light ocean blue. Her face also doesn't look like Loretta's anymore, but when I take a whiff of air I immediately smell her scent and I know it's her.
The guards walk through the house and I hear them moving and looking under things. They come back and shook their heads at the king who has been watching the entire time since Loretta hugged my legs.
Now Loretta was in my arms and on my hip, my hand stroking over her hair. I can see sadness wash up in the kings eyes. He must really love Loretta. The king looks me in the eyes.
"You have a beautiful daughter." He says. "Thank you." I say sending a small smile at him. He then walks out of the house. I turn my head to Archer. "Why does she look like this?" I ask him.
"I have no idea Apha. We were sitting and watching a show when she closed her eyes and her entire body changed. I look down at Loretta. "My other daddy taught me."
Then her eyes grow wide and her eyes start to sparkel. "Oh! I made something for you daddy!" She exclaims. Then she jumps out of my arms and runs over to the coffee table.
There's papers and crayons on the table. She grabs a paper and runs over to me. When she's in front of me again sh lifts her hands asking to be picked up. Once on my hip she gives me the paper.

My eyes grow wide. She really has extremely good drawing skills. Then I get a plan. "Loretta?" "Yes daddy?" She asks tilting her head. "Can you make a drawing of what your hair means?" I ask her.
Nodding her head she jumps out of my arms again and she goes back to the coffee table sitting on her knees she takes a crayon and starts her drawing.
I look to she Archer still in the house. "Come with me." I tell him and he nods. "Loretta, I'm just going to me office okay?" She nods her head completely focused on her drawing. I walk upstairs and Archer follows me.
When we come to my office I sit down. And he follows my lead. "Now today was very close. They almost found her and I am not planning on losing my daughter." Archer nods at me.
"Anyway. I want you to go to an old friend of mine. He is a wizard. He lives about a 4 days run from here in wolf form. I want you to go there and bring him back here." I say. "Yes Alpha." He says nodding his head. "Wait until tomorrow cause there's gonna be a ceremony tonight."
Before he can answer there's a shuffle of feet and a knock on the door. Archer stands up and opens the door then Loretta comes in and gives me a paper. I look down to see the hair list.

"Thank you, Loretta." I say. She nods and skips out of the room. I turn back to Archer. "Oh. Also I want you and some people to go buy something's for me." I say giving him a list of stuff to get for Loretta's room I'm planning to make.
"Keep in mind that Loretta's favorite colors is blue and pink." He nods. "Also put the word out that the Alpha Child's ceremony will take place this afternoon." His eyes grows wide then he smiles. "You've found your heir Alpha?' He asks and I nod.
After he takes his leave I take one of the photo frames off my wall. I take the photo of me and my parents out and put it the drawing Loretta gave me in it.

The rest of the day Loretta was in the living room drawing and me and some of the other guys got her, bedroom, bathroom, dressing room and her play room. Once we're done her dressing room was overflowing along with her other rooms.
Once we are done I have everyone leave and then I go to Loretta who's still drawing at the living room coffee table. " Loretta?" She looks away from her drawing facing me. "Yes daddy?" She asks.
"You will have to go through another ceremony tonight okay?" I as her. "Yes daddy." She says smiling. I look down at her drawing. "That's pretty sweetheart." I say. She is really talented.

"Who taught you how to draw?" I ask. "Grandma did before she died. I was 3 when I draw my first ribbon." She said. I smile "Let's go get you dressed for tonight." Loretta nods then pick her up and carry her to my bathroom.
I start a bath for her. Once I make sure the water is fine I start undressing Loretta. Once my shirt comes off of her I immediately see the scars that was left behind when the werewolf bit her. They were 4 faint scars on her hips.
Once I took of all her clothes I place her in the tub. I take the rose and cherry body wash we got her today and I squeeze some of it onto a washcloth and I start washing her body. After I rinsed her off I washed her hair with cherry scented shampoo.
Once finished I wrap a blue towel around her body then I carry her into my room where the dress and shoes is that we bought today as well. You have to have a specific dress for the Alpha ceremony.
I set her down then I dry her body and hair. When she's dried I dress her. Her body is small and I make sure not to hurt her while I dress her. When we are done I put her down in front of my body length mirror.
(It's just the dress Loretta isn't that big yet.)
I combed Loretta's hair through and then I let it hang loose down her back. Finally we were finished. I got her in the car and then we drove to the pack house. I helped her out again and then we walked into the ceremony hall of the pack house.
When we get in all the pack members took their seats and I started walking to the front of the hall with Loretta's hand in mine. I walked slowly. On the way there I hear multiple women of the pack 'awwwww'.
We reach the front and I let go of Lorett's hand I make her face the pack priest and then I lean down whispering in her ear. "Stay here and look at that man okay?" She softly nods then I walk to a chair in the front row.
"Good evening all members of the Blue Moon Pack." The priest starts. "Today we are going through the Alpha ceremony. Now before we officially make the child heir I want to say something."
"We werewolves are by nature social creatures and we have great respect for our alphas. If you keep quite at the end of this ceremony you will hold your promise to protect and see Loretta as alpha for the rest of your lives."
"Alpha Raymond. If you'd please come up." With that he finishes his speech and I stand up heading to my daughter.
I take the pack symbol and I face Loretta. I put the piece of paper with the symbol against her left shoulder and I keep it there with my fingers while I begin talking.
I, Raymond Roland, Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, hereby names my heir, Loretta Darcy Luanda Roland." I smile as I remember when I completed her surname change today. She's my little baby. My daughter. My life.
I take the paper of of her shoulder and the packs symbol stands out on her light skin in a pitch black color. The rest of the night was spent dancing and chatting with the pack.
I finally have my heir.
