The sun was high in the sky as I walked across the training grounds, my heart heavy with the pushback I had been facing. Ever since Alaric and I took over as Alpha and Luna, some pack members refused to accept my leadership. They challenged my authority at every turn, their disdain evident in their snide comments and dismissive attitudes.
Today was particularly challenging. With Diana on a mission with Sam, I had been given the responsibility of taking over her class. Diana had always been a respected figure, and stepping into her role added an extra layer of pressure.
I took a deep breath, trying to keep myself from crumbling under the pressure. Today, I was scheduled to give a lesson on honing new powers, a task that should have been exciting but felt like walking into a battlefield. As I approached the training area, I could already see several wolves gathered, their expressions ranging from curious to openly hostile.
