Hi! So, this is a new fanfiction I've started, I hope you like it. The relationships it will contain will be listed underneath, but first I'm going to list the minor change I've made:
Percy will be an Omega in this book. I find it so different to be writing about a Percy that doesn't talk back (YET) so in the beginning, he may be a little shy.

~August 24th~ A couple days after the birth of the Alpha's son…
Alpha Poseidon Jackson watched in human form as his pack subjects fought against the invading rogues while protecting his wife, Luna, and soulmate, Sally, and their newborn cub.
When he was sure the rogues weren't paying attention, he turned to Sally and whispered, "Go. Run, get out of here. I'll stay with the pack members and make sure that the monsters don't follow you. You have to take Perseus and run!"
Sally watched in fear as one of the rogues took down another soldier, but her voice was strong. "I've already told you, Poseidon, I'm not leaving you to the mercy of the beasts. We are going to get out of this together. I am making sure our son will grow up with a father to guide him."
"If you don't get out of here now, the child will have no parents to grow up with at all." Poseidon said. "Please, Sally, go!"
One of the pack members spoke to their Alpha and Luna through the mind link. Alpha, if it wouldn't be so bold, I agree with Luna Sally. You both need to get out of here. These rogues are merciless, and as hard as we fight, they have more warriors. No one in the pack has any children to lose, but you. We will protect you for as long as we can and provide a distraction, but please, make it out alive!
Poseidon stared out at the battlefield, at his soldiers, at his family and friends. "I…I can't abandon my pack," he whispered, "you're my family."
One of the pack women hiding in the house quietly shifted into her wolf and approached Poseidon and Sally. She pushed against their legs with her muzzle, making them back up until they were both behind the house and out of sight.
Alpha, Luna, thank you for protecting and caring for us all. But please, let us return the favor. Escape! Flee, and grow up with your son! All we want is your happiness.
Poseidon felt the pack agreement through the link overpower his will to stay. "A-Alright." His voice cracked as he said it. He shifted into his wolf, who was twice the size of an average wolf, and pushed Sally and Perseus onto his back. Once they were secure, Poseidon turned and nodded at his pack members, then ran off into the night.
He ran for what felt like hours. By the time he took a rest, it was dawn and he could no longer sense anyone from his pack. They were all gone.
Poseidon howled in pain. Sally, still cradling Perseus, walked over to her husband and wrapped her one free arm around his neck. She comforted her mate until the pain subsided, and they continued on.
There is a pack near here, Poseidon said to her through their link. Do you think they will accept us?
I hope so. Sally said. I don't know if Perseus will be willing to stay quiet for much longer.
She continued whispering soft words into the blanket that held her child.
Poseidon walked beside her in wolf form, then suddenly stopped. Don't take another step forward. This is their boundary line. If we step over, we will be seen as trespassers. I'm trying to communicate with the Alpha right now.
Sally paused and bounced Perseus, then looked up and smiled. "Hey," she whispered to the baby, "Look at the pretty stars."
Perseus opened his sea green eyes and looked up. There were so many pretty lights shining in the sky; they looked like they'd never end.
"There is a special constellation up in the sky, Percy. Do you know what it is?" The baby smiled at his mother and clenched her finger in his tiny hand. "Her name is Zoe. She was one of the Moon Goddess' most faithful guardians. When she died, the Moon Goddess put her to live forever in the sky. Do you see her?"
Perseus kept his eyes trained upward, loving the way these soft lights lit up the night.
Poseidon watched his mate and child, warmth filling his heart. While he missed the family he called a pack, he wouldn't have traded anything for this beautiful moment in his son's life.
Come over the line. Approach the second tree to the right slowly. A voice said in his head. It was the neighboring Alpha.
Poseidon walked behind a tree and changed back to human form, wearing only shorts. He stepped out and walked over to Sally. "He's ready for us." He said.
Sally nodded and followed Poseidon over the boundary line and frowned in confusion as he stepped in front of a tree. She manages to hide her surprise when a man stepped out from behind it.
He had dark hair, not unlike Poseidon's, and sky blue eyes, He watched the couple warily.
"I am Zeus Grace, Alpha of the Olympian Pack. May I ask why you are here?"
Poseidon took his time carefully explaining their situation. Zeus noticed how his voice broke when he spoke of leaving his pack behind.
"I am no longer an Alpha. Now, my mate and I are just looking for a new home. If you would be willing to accept us into your pack, we would be very grateful." Poseidon finished.
Zeus studied their expressions carefully. He felt bad for this couple and would have taken them in, but he already had so many mouths to feed. How could he turn them away gently?
Just as he was about to respond, a small voice began to cry. Sally rocked the blanket back and forth, humming and cooing to Perseus to quiet him.
Zeus' eyes widened. A child? They had a child? There was no way Zeus was about to leave this family to the mercy of the woods.
"Alright." He said with a smile. "Welcome to the Olympian Pack."
Sally sighed with relief and Poseidon smiled gratefully at Zeus.
"Your official Welcoming Ceremony will take place a week from now so that you can get to know the pack members and get used to life around here. I apologize, but because you are new, you will have to start at the bottom of the pack ranks."
On the outside, Poseidon took this graciously. On the inside, his wolf howled in humiliation and fury. From and Alpha to an Omega? This was damaging his pride. But he sucked it up and kept on walking.
"You guys will fit right in; I'm sure everyone will welcome you with open arms."
With that, Zeus took them in and Poseidon, Sally, and Perseus had found a new home.
