*Alex's point of view*
"Hey JR!!" called a voice from behind. Alex turns around to see John is best friend standing behind him. John and Alex have known each other since they were born. "What's up?" Alex replies. John stands there for a couple seconds and thinks. Then finally says "I don't know.... the roof?" He said jokingly, he continued saying, "how's the future alpha doin?". All Alex could do was stare at John for a while, looking very unamused. John just stood there looking very proud of himself.
* If you haven't caught onto what is going on, let me explain. Yes, Alex is going to be the next alpha, but he isn't the alpha yet, plus he doesn't like to be seen as the alpha. Alex prefers to just be seen as a wolf just like anyone else. He doesn't like or want anyone to see him differently or treat him differently than they would others, just because he will be their alpha soon. *
Alex reply's, "alright and you?", "Eh bored" reply's John "wanna go to the lake?" Asks John. "Sure" is all Alex could say because before he knew what was going on he was being dragged by the sleeve of his shirt, of course it was by John though. "Wow!! Slow down!" Calls out Alex. Out of embarrassment all John said was a shy, "sorry" back to Alex.
Alex stood there fixing his shirt after being dragged by John. "What was all that about!?", Alex asked. "Dude, did you not hear the bell? We are going to be late to class and you weren't moving. You know I can't have another tardy!", John told him. Alex looked at the time and realized that John was right. "Thx, for dragging me here than.", Alex said back jokingly. Both Alex and John laughed as they took their seats in class.
* To clarify, yes, Alex is a big badass soon to be alpha, but he is also a high school student. Alex is a Senior in High school and John is a Junior in High School. Alex is in his last year of high school and John has another year to go. *

A couple hours go by, Alex and John return home after school. All of a sudden, out of know where he hears yelling and screaming. At this point John had fallen asleep. Alex decides to wake John up because he doesn't know what is going on and may need his help. "Five more minutes" says John half awake and half asleep. Alex looks worried and concerned, "did you hear that?", he said. A couple seconds go by and John reply's sleepily with "did I hear what?". Alex thinks maybe he was just hearing things and it wasn't really there. Then he hears it again and this time so does John. John jumps up and yells "WHAT THE F*CK WAS THAT!?!?" Alex didn't know what that was, all he could say was "I don't know" but then Alex and John, both realized it was coming from where their pack life's. They just start running like hell, going as fast as they can go worried, they won't get there in time to help. Unfortunately, they were right by the time they got there half of the pack was dead and the other half was severely injured. As well as the pack, Alex's mom and dad was dead. Yes, that is very sad to everyone. However, that means Alex was now the pack's alpha or at least to what remanded of the pack. Alex was scared because of what just happened and nerves because he wasn't sure if he was ready to be the new alpha.
