Rejected by the Beta, Claimed by the Alpha

Chapter 39
After a tiring day, Charles went to shower and by the time he came out, Clara was there, in a transparent lingerie. Unlike before,
nothing tickled inside of him, as he picked his pajamas and began to put them on. Clara frowned. In times past, Charles had
pressured her to give him the cherry but she gave one excuse to another. Now, he looked at her like he was looking at female
member of the pack who had shifted after a war.
“Charles, I’m ready. I want to be yours,” Clara said seductively, whiles she ambled towards him to her amazement, he took a step
back and said.
“But I’m not ready, Clara.”
“It’s been years.” Clara countered, happy on the inside. She would only give her cherry to the man who would make her his
Luna.
Charles forced a smile. “You always said that you weren’t ready. Now, I also need time.”
Clara did not really want to do it with him. She just wanted to prove her loyalty so she removed her night things and said,
“I don’t care. I will sleep beside you like this.”
Charles shrugged and put on his pajamas before lying beside her. Even when her hands caressed his back, he made no move
until she got tired and stopped.
End of flashback
“That is what happened,”
Jaxon finally sighed with relief. If Charles had messed up again, he did not know how he was going to come out of it. “Then you
have to end it because Rowena agreed to move into the packhouse and you know what that means.”
Charles eyes lit. He knew that he lost Rowena but since he still had Gracie, it was fine. “Everyone including Gracie would be
here. Did you mark her already?” He asked.
“No, but soon and there’s something else,” Jaxon hinted, Charles gave his full attention.
“What is that?” he asked seriously.
“Gracie will be sleeping in your room whether you like it or not,” Jaxon used an Alpha tone. His brother was too slow and since
Gracie loved him, unlike Rowena who needed time to put herself together, he had to force Charles to make some moves. To his
surprise, Charles did not refuse the arrangement.
“I never said I’ll refuse.”
“And what happens to her?” Jaxon asked, referring to the naked woman in his room and on his bed. Charles chuckled slightly.
“I will take care of everything,” he said with confidence. Jaxon did not know what he was planning but was getting impatient with

how slow he was.
“If you allow Clara to cause trouble for Gracie, I will deal with you Charles,” Jaxon warned again, Charles smiled calmly and

responded,
“Chill Jax, I have everything under control”
Jaxon nodded his head in acceptance before revealing. “There’s an emergency at the hospital and I’m taking Rowena so why
don’t you supervise their movement?”
“I will.” Charles agreed, excited to have his mate close to him. Since Charles did not refuse any of the arrangement, Jaxon was
still skeptical, thereby instructing,
“Also, let Clara clean one of the rooms for Rowena’s mother.” He watched Charles’s face keenly, expecting him to refuse or
something but nothing of that sort was happening, which go Jaxon more and more confused. However, he opened his mouth and
said.
“You know how to revenge, big brother. Anyway, I will inform the warrior you assigned to her.” Charles discerned that Jaxon was
doing this to get back at Clara since she was so proud and thought lowly of omegas. Whereas, when he suggested on passing
Jaxon’s information to the warrior assigned to Clara, he felt that Jaxon was still afraid of Clara, which could only mean that he
still cared for her.
As such, he asked, “Can’t do it yourself?”
Charles smiled a little. It was unlike him to expose his plans after all the lessons he learnt the hard way. “I have plans”
Jaxon shook his lurad and said. “I will see you later.”
It did not take long before the warrior assigned to Clara arrived. “Make sure she cleans one of the rooms for Alice, Rowena’s
mom and let her know who will be living in the room. Also, add that it’s the Alpha’s command”
Chapter 39
“Well noted, Beta Charles, the warrior let out a sinister smile. It seemed that the beta had seen Clara’s foul character and was
secretly punishing her. When he made the move to enter the room, Charles warned him,
“Hey, if she finds out about my involvement, you know what would happen to you.”
The warrior smiled. “I very well understand.”
“Good, go in,” Charles encouraging him after taking in his understanding of the plan. Charles stood at the door when the warrior
went to wake Clara.
“Miss Clara, it’s time to begin your work.”
Clara woke up instantly and pulled the covers to cover herself, annoyed that Charles allowed the warrior in without covering her
up. The last time she was late, this warrior punished her, for which reason she did not want to waste any more
time.

“Turn around, I have to dress up.” Clara insisted. Watching her nakedness was never a part of the agreement. The warrior meant
to deal with her a little, since Charles had given her power, .

“Miss, I have seen you shift a lot of times. 1 don’t think you have anything special,” he taunted. Charles back was turned to them
and smiled mockingly. Clara sure has so many enemies in the pack.
“Charles, did you hear what he said?” Clara was upset, speaking in a teary voice. Jaxon knew that if he did not support her this
time, it would be obvious that he was against her. He forced a frown and said to the warrior in a warming tone,
“Be careful there.
The warrior turned around and Clare let out a victorious glint whiles dressing up. Anytime she had Charles’ support it made her
to feel special. At the same time, Charles winked at the warrior and they both smiled.
“Miss Clara, the Alpha has asked that I inform you to clean a new room for Madam Alice. Rowena’s mother. The warrior dropped
the bomb. Clara froze instantly.
“Ha?” The reaction on her face was priceless and Charles found it hard to hold his laughter but was able to put himself together
to not ruin the plan.
“Charles, did you hear that, an omega is moving into the packhouse and 1 have to clean her room!”
Charles walked over to her and caressed her cheeks whiles he said. “You know how helpless I am when the command comes
from the Alpiu. He even insisted that Gracic moves in here so I’m sorry, you have to move out your things,” he added fire to fuel,
whiles perking her lovingly on the cheek.
The warrior rolled his eyes as the fake gesture. I never thought Beta Charles could be so cun ning.
“Charles, this is too much. You can’t do this to me,” Clara snapped. She was already sobbing. She was not a fool to not discern
something amiss. If Jaxon was forcing Charles to live in the same room, then he was indeed matching them. Clara felt an ache
in her heart at the arrangement. She could not take it.
“Clara, this changes nothing between us, Charles pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly whiles he spoke. The warrior
was shaking his head in shock all through. If he did not know, he would have thought that Charles was indeed a loving boyfriend.
“It’s temporary and Jax is only afraid that you might hurt her. If you had not done all those silly things, all this would not be
happening,” Charles continued to comfort her, whiles adding more guilt on her shoulders.
Clara pulled away and looked him in the eyes. “Charles, do you promise that there is still us?” She asked with hope, though she
knew it would be a shock for Charles if she won over Jaxon like she had planned. Charles smiled lovingly and asked,
“Who else could there be?”
Clara smiled. At least she had Charles for now. “Alright, I will move my things out but as soon as I complete my punishment, she
will have to move out,” she said seriously. Charles was amazed at how Clara was not willing to move in with him before. He had
to force her, even though he could not force to be intimate with her. Now, she did not want to move out. What a shame!
“Your wish is my command and I don’t think Jaxon would have a reason to refuse.”
When he saw Clara smiling like a fool in response to his utterance, he wondered how he fell in love with such a gullible woman.
He got dressed and arranged a few warriors to Rowena’s house.
