Alpha Damon’s Greatest Regret

Damon~

 Morning came soon after, the bright rays of the sun shining against my face, my face twisted with discomfort as I woke up from my sleep, rising up from the floor and standing up, I stumbled forward not fully awake and stopped in front of a mirror, I saw myself staring right back at me, my green eyes glowing fiercely, the effect of cancer had yet to affect my appearance but to me, all I saw was a man defeated by his own weakness and the sight that usually made me smile filled me with wonder, for so long I had embodied the strength of the pack, what would happen when word gets out that the strongest member of the pack could no longer fight, would Silver hallow waste such an opportunity, No, I had to get back on my feet and for that, I need Zarah and Her Son, No, I needed Zarah and our Son I corrected myself as I walked into the shower, Quickly I had run my bath and dressed up in my finest clothes, if this plan was too succeed then I'd have to turn up my charm to a level that would make me seem irresistible, a big white button down silk shirt tucked into a tan corporate trouser pressed so there was not a wrinkle in sight, paired with deep black oxfords and to finish it all off i put on a black leather jacket that added a touch of mystery to my classy ensemble, I walked to my mirror and not to sound arrogant or braggy but I was taken aback by how good I looked, I walked out of the room firmly shutting the door behind me, Standing outside waiting for me was Carlos, who looked me up and down and nodded in approval, a scowl formed on my face and we began to walk to were I'd meet my companions, Carlos walking by my side, his presence stable as always. During the process, there were a lot of candidates that wanted to be my beta, But I chose Carlos simply because of the air of safety and reassurance he always had around him, it was comforting to know that even if I had a breakdown right here right now he would keep the pack functioning smoothly.

"Report" I asked as we continued walking through the hall, Carlos handed me a tablet with the screen lit displaying everything I needed to know about my son, age, name he was registered under, Address, school, grade, blood type, It was incredibly thorough, I looked through the report, taking mental notes as my eyes read through each line of information, when I was done I handed it back to him 

"Are you sure about everything on the list" I asked, he nodded in response 

"I supervised the collection of data and double checked every piece of information before bringing it to you"

"Good" I said as I walked into the hall where they waited for me

"Morning ladies and gents" I greeted the familiar faces

"Good morning, How are you feeling?" Daniel asked 

"Better than before" I admitted trying to ease their worries as I made my way out of the room explaining the plan as we walked

"We will take two SUVs, me and Daniel would be in one While Kendra and Tom would be in the other, from here to the human sector is a three hour journey so we would get there latest by eleven, giving us enough time to familiarize with the place and blend into as regular citizens while we wait for school to reach it's close, then we would pick him up and bring him back here, Understood?" 

"Understood" they all chorused as the two SUVs pulled up, the men who served as valets stepped out and we all entered and began our journey to the human sector.

 We had been on the road for about two hours and so far the trip had been smooth, Daniel was sure to let the other SUV constantly be at our front serving as the head of our mini convoy, maintaining a medium amount of speed so as to not attract any unwanted attention.

"Do you really think this kid is yours?" Daniel finally spoke, my eyes that had been focused on the road outside my window turned and fixed on him

"what reason do I have to doubt?" I replied with a question of my own

"She's just a whore Damon, she may have falsified the information and died his hair" Daniel answered not even trying to hide his distaste for the situation 

"I trust the information Carlos brought to me and when I looked at that boy I saw myself, So I believe that indeed he is my son" Daniel grunted but didn't say anything else as he fixed his eyes on the road and we continued our drive in silence.

 The school he was enrolled at was called Lincoln primary, surrounding the school kept it secure even though you could still see through the metallic net you couldn't get to the children who payed no attention to whatever was at the other side of the fence, I walked to the opening of the fence that served as an entrance and to my surprise the security was better than I had thought, a guard asked me to hand over all my metallic devices and still patted me down with a metal detector, on further inspection I noticed a taser fixed on his belt buckle, wouldn't be enough to stop me I thought as the guard finally let me pass, I walked into the school and straight to the reception, I looked at the woman in her mid twenties who sat on the other side of the desk and with the most polite tone I could muster I said 

"Good morning Beautiful" Her head shot up and she looked at me with a smile

"How can I help you sir" she responded, a blush showing on her cheek, I flashed a charming smile and leaned against the table

"I'm here to pick up my nephew, Elliott Meyers" I explained making sure not to take my amber eyes of her, the amount of eye contact made her shy and her cheeks became even more red than they already were as she typed something into her computer then forced herself to look back at me

"I'm sorry but his mother didn't mention anything about a relative coming to pick him up" she replied, I chuckled and smiled again making sure my voice didn't waver

"That Dina for you, so forgetful" I explained all while still keeping the charming smile on my face "she's always so busy so she probably forgot to inform you people, I have some documents that show I am his relative if you need that to be sure I'm not scum" I joked, she smiled and nodded in agreement 

"Ok bring them over and I'll look through them to make sure you are who you say you are" she said, I smiled and pushed myself of the table and strutted back to the car, I picked up some files Carlos had handed to me and went back to the reception table, I handed them to her and watched as she read through them making sure she didn't misread anything, honestly I was impressed, the staff made sure everything was done to perfection and every process was followed through.

"Ok, everything checks out" she said, handing the documents back to me "lemme go get him for you" She stood from her desk and walked through the hall on the left side of her desk, it took her a few minutes but she finally came back with the boy holding onto her hand, immediately I set my eyes on him my heart skipped a beat, and any doubt I had disappeared without a trace, This child, This boy was my Son.
