Ruthless Runt: Joker

"Look, I didn't come here to insult your judgement or anything."

"You're doing a hell of a job at that." Alpha Mark scoffed and I sighed.

"If you won't listen to me then I can't help you anymore. You'll have to deal with this rogue problem yourself." I shrugged, turning around to leave.

"That's fine with me. I didn't expect such a joke of an Alpha to be able to help anyway."

I clenched my fists and took in a deep breath.

"How do you even manage your pack? You're all just a bunch of misfits trying to-"

"That's enough, Alpha Mark." I turned around and shot him a glare, eyes flaring red for a second. "My pack and I will be leaving as soon as I am done with the house."

"Good riddance." I heard him mutter as I slammed the door behind me.

"Son of a bloody hand gun." I stomped my way back to my temporary pack house, giving death glares to all the people in Alpha Mark's pack. "Stupid, stupid, stupid. Wasted my time for nothing."

I growled, punching the wall.

"Ow, dammit!" I yelled out in frustration. Why couldn't I just punch a hole through a bloody wall? Everything is so stupid! Just because I'm small doesn't mean I'm dumb! Or a bad Alpha! I hate everything!

"Woah! What's got your panties in a twist, Alpha?" Prue popped out of the kitchen, face stained with flour.

I fixed my glare on her, giving a little tsk before storming up the stairs.

"Was it something I did?" She yelled out and I grabbed a random object and threw it at her. "Thanks for finding my butt plug, Alpha!"

I shivered in disgust, not knowing whether or not it was actually what she said it was and made a quick (long) trip to the bathroom to get rid of any lasting germs.

I wrote a small note addressed to Luna Laney, including a quick apology and details of how to contact me. Now the only reason I did this was because she was... nice. Okay she wasn't just nice but she became my friend? Yes, a friend.

Flashback

"Hi Alpha Joker! What are you doing here by yourself?" Luna Laney perched herself on the fence.

"Nothing much, I'm just...watching." I shrugged, laying down on the grass.

"Do you mind if I join you? I'm so tired of being stuck in the house by myself." She smiled when I nodded. "There was nothing to do in the house and I saw you in the field by yourself. Thought I'd just pop by and say hello." Luna Laney added.

"Well, hello Luna Laney."

"Just call me Laney. I want to be friends!" Laney held her hand out and I stared at it.

"Um, friends, okay. We can be friends." I smiled awkwardly when she still held her hand out. "What are you doing?"

"Handshake! We're friends now, you have to shake on it!"

I reached out and shook her hand before placing it behind my head.

"Do you mind if I just call you Joker? Is that alright? I don't want to anger your wolf by disrespecting you or anything. I know how they can get."

"Yes I don't mind that."

"You don't talk a lot do you?"
