Damon's POV
I am the third child of the Alpha of the Ice Moon Pack. My father, Bergan Cooper, is the Alpha. My brother Morn is next in line, then my sister Elaine, and then me-Damon Daniel Cooper. Well, actually now it's Dr. Damon Daniel Cooper.
My mom died giving birth to me, which sets me apart from my siblings. I inherited more of my mom's traits than the others, so instead of being a brilliant white wolf with ice-blue eyes like them, I'm white and brown with one blue and one golden-brown eye. This trait carried over to my human form as well. I usually wear a colored contact to hide it-no need for the extra attention.
My childhood was happy for the most part, though there were many trials. My mom's side of the family blamed me for her death, so they cut ties with us and even tried to sacrifice me when I was five in an attempt to bring her back to life. We also faced constant attacks from the Crimson Clan, who felt my father stole their birthright as Alpha. He had challenged and won the position from their father before any of us were born to save the pack from Crimson's ruthless tyranny.
Thankfully, my father and siblings have always stood by me, and I by them. Since I wasn't destined to become the pack Alpha, I chose to go to medical school and became a doctor-a profession that I absolutely love. Now, I work as one of the pack doctors.

Louis's POV
I'm the Alpha of the Twisted River Pack. Sounds like a crazy name, but it has a lot of history behind it. We are one of the oldest and most respected packs around, owning the largest area of all the surrounding packs. I've only been the Alpha for two years and still rely on my father, Jason, for help. He was a very respected Alpha, and I often feel the pack doesn't think I will ever measure up to him. By the way, my name is Louis Jacobs.
I'm used to feeling not good enough. I'm not the largest, fastest, or most personable Alpha. Since I can remember, I've been pushed and pressured to be better. I've been watched like a hawk my whole life, never really allowed to have fun, as that would look bad for the future Alpha of the most respected pack.
School was not easy for me. I can't count how many classmates I had to beat up just to prove myself. Sometimes I would go home and cry into my pillow. I didn't really have friends, never sure if they were nice to me because they liked me or because they wanted to get in good standing with the future Alpha. Unfortunately, it was usually the latter.
My mother, Beth, was my support whenever I needed her. She never told my dad either, as he would have considered it showing weakness, which looked bad for the future Alpha. She is probably the only real friend I have. Sad, huh?
My brother, Seth, and sister, Alice, are twins and almost ten years younger than me. They are fun, but we aren't really close because of the age difference between us. Maybe one day.
Enough of that. It is stressful, but it's getting better. I seem to be getting the hang of it, and as long as things keep going like they are right now, it'll all be good.
