Chapter 174: The Self-Humiliating Omega
[Patrick’s P.O.V.]
It’s been two days since Alpha had left the pack to be with Rose again. Her due date was drawing near anyway so I was glad they were back together. When he showed us the pictures of Rose on his phone, I could only marvel at how different yet unchanging she looked.
At this point, Ad and I had just come down from the hill near the castle with our mates, heading back to the castle restaurant for breakfast. We had allowed our wolves to frolic around for a while while I let Diana ride Lucifer who made sure not to let her fall no matter how much he ran or jumped. Diana screamed in excitement as she clutched onto his mane. And by the end of it, Diana still felt as if she hadn’t had enough even though our wolves were done for the day. To her, the ride was more exciting than riding a roller coaster.
As we made our way back to the castle, Diana chattered away happily, telling us funny stories about her school and making Jane laugh. But the happy atmosphere dissipated quickly when a hag appeared in front of us.
“Have you seen Alpha?” asked Emily.
She was wearing a lot of makeup, which only made her look uglier. After we all knew that she was one of the culprits who destroyed Edward and Rose’s relationship, as well as poisoned my unborn nephew. The sight of her simply made my wolf and me want to kill her immediately. Unfortunately, Alpha had ordered us not to touch her for the time being. We had to follow the plan.
“Alpha went abroad.” Ad decided to respond to her.
“He went abroad? Why didn’t he tell me? Where did he go? And with whom?”
“What the hell does this have to do with you?” asked Jane as she stared at the hag.
“How dare you talk to your future Luna like that?” Emily retorted as she stared back at Jane fearlessly.
“Future Luna? Oh, please. You’re such a joke. Even if Alpha marries you, he’ll never fall in love with you. You’re just his occasional sex toy.”
“Edward loves me! After all, he’s willing to marry me! So, shut your filthy mouth!”
“Emily, this makeup doesn’t suit you at all. It makes you look at least twenty years older,” said my mate.
“You shut up too. Your human stench makes me want to puke.”
“Oh, I’ll be the one to puke if you become this pack’s Luna.” Diana did not hesitate or sugar-coat her words.
“Enough!” I shouted in Beta’s voice and they stopped speaking.
“Rose is Edward’s true love. What’s there to argue about? Even though they went through some twists and turns, including our Alpha losing his memory, the connection between them is deep. Anyway, stop shouting and arguing with each other. At the end of the day, we’re all from the same pack. It’ll be quite annoying and disrespectful if you keep this up.”
I glanced at Diana and Jane when I spoke. I knew they were putting up an act and were doing their best to not let the truth out. But I also know that it was hard for them to fight the urge to finally scold the d*mn b*tch when the opportunity was right in front of them. It was hard to play referee since I was in the same boat with them. But I had to maintain my responsibility as Beta.
“Tell me, since Luna has voluntarily cut off all relations with Alpha, is it possible for Alpha to find another mate to replace his destined mate? After all, he is a man. It shouldn’t be a surprise for him to look for another mate.
“Of course it is possible. Alpha can not stay in the same spot forever. This is his personal life. No one has the right to interfere. Moreover, it is impossible for our race to not have Luna,” said Ad, and I knew where he was going with this.
I heard Jane grunt as the b*tch started to smile. She must have been thinking we were referring to her when we mentioned the possibility of Alpha finding another mate. Oh, this girl was so delusional and stupid. Sometimes it was hard to believe how easily we could play her.
“Oh God, if Alpha finds a new person to be Luna, I don’t know if I’ll truly accept and respect her. After all, Rose is like my biological sister,” said Jane, pretending to be helpless.
“Alright, if you dare not accept and disrespect me...”
“I didn’t ask for your f*cking opinion! You’re still a low-level Omega. Know your place! Now get out of our way.” Jane snapped at Emily.
Emily let out an angry howl, frustrated that she could not say more. She knew that she would only embarrass herself before these two high-level women, so she turned around and left. However, we heard her cursing at us the entire way as she walked off. I knew that if she somehow did become Luna, she would not hesitate to exact her revenge on us all.
“Why didn’t Alpha just kill this d*mn arrogant b*tch? He even had the evidence!” Jane spoke as she chewed. By now, we were already at the dining hall and she had begun to gobble down the food. Her face was all wrinkled as she used her knife and fork so hard that they screeched against the plate. We could tell that she was imagining cutting up Emily’s corpse instead of the steak.
She was a straightforward person and her emotions were always easily revealed. After all, her sister had been treated so unfairly. Ad tried his best to calm her down.
“Ad is right. Gamma Jane, Alpha is a smart person. He must have his reasons for acting like this. He has always managed the pack well, which is how we are the largest werewolf pack in North America.”
But despite my words, I had to admit that I didn’t know all of Edward’s plans. Perhaps after Rose gave birth to little Alpha, there would be an answer. Icould already imagine Emily’s expression once Alpha arrived with the mother and son.
