452-I Can’t Be The Alpha Queen.
I didn’t want to talk to him any longer because he appeared to be in his feelings. He was upset that we had kept
him from having the time of his life with his mate.
Once we reached the pack, the pack members were all gathered around with bouquets to welcome me. I watched
them with a smile and accepted the gifts and greetings. They were the best people in the world. I remember that
whenever I visited his pack, his pack members would treat me with love.
“Where is he taking my stuff?” I asked Theo when an omega grabbed my bags and rushed into the mansion. I
wasn’t accusing him of stealing them or anything. I was just not sure if I was staying in the same room as Theo.
“Of course, to my room,” Theo shrugged, walking beside me. I felt his hand brush through mine, realizing he
wanted to hold hands with me.
When I saw Janet on my way, I dashed ahead to embrace her.
“Some people are just so lucky,” Theo commented, and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at him.
“How are you?” I asked Janet, watching her face with sadness. She had been through a lot for no reason. Corbin
really was an a*shole for putting her through so much worry.
“I am just fine. I needed to speak to you regarding some stuff,” Janet said, and instantly Theo rushed between us.

at Janet. He didn’t like her too much because she was one of those who would tell Thiago not to let Theo out.
“I’m sorry,” Janet said quickly as I glared at Theo for upsetting her.
“There is no problem. I will quickly shower and join you in the garden for lunch, okay?” I told Janet, and after she
nodded sweetly, I walked into the room to freshen up.
Thankfully, Theo didn’t come to bother me. He stayed outside the room, and later I found out he was busy
preparing everything for the lunch.
I wore a white sweater on blue jeans and walked out with my wet hair to join them in the garden. I was in a hurry
because I was curious to know what Janet had to share with me.
Being in his pack, where everybody respected me, felt different. I was breathing freely, not feeling someone’s
finger around my neck and getting choked every few hours.
As soon as I sat down in the garden, Theo began to fill my plate with a different variety of food. He had a breadstick
in his mouth while he was excitedly filling my plates.
“I don’t eat so much,” I argued, but in a soft tone.
“Nhow yhou mhust,” he mumbled, still holding the breadstick in his mouth.
Janet was watching us before she lowered her face and let out a sigh. I could tell she was missing her mate. I can
relate to her. There was a time when I cried and suffered to see Thiago again, and now that he was in front of me, I
was beginning to realize what weakened me. It was never losing my wolf, but losing my mate, that made me so
weak and uninterested in life.
We finished the lunch without discussing anything as the
pack members were sitting with us. They wanted to eat lunch together as a big, happy family, and I didn’t want to
miss it for anything.
“You wanted to say something?” I asked Janet, taking a stroll with her. Theo was walking behind us, probably even
listening to our conversation.
“After how Corbin made me accept him by force by lying about the rogue attack. I feel like the death of my mate
was also —,” she said, pausing while lowering her head and slowing down her steps.
“You think Corbin did it?” I asked, and she nodded.
“He is just like his father. If not better, then worse. I don’t know how long we will have to tolerate him, but I assure
you, Janet, that I will find out if he has any part in the murder of your mate, and then I will drag him to the trial,” I
promised her as I stopped to hold hands with her.
“But how? He is an alpha king. The moment he realizes we are onto him, he will change the rules and silence us.”
Janet wasn’ t wrong. He had been using his status and power to do many messed-up things.

behind his back and was looking charming in all black.
“And I suppose you know how to do that as well?” I asked and folded my arms over my chest. It was funny how I
was so comfortable talking to a Lycan when I couldn’t speak like that with Lazlo anymore.
“Hm! Since we are already talking about it, I would like to
share my future plans. I am going to challenge Corbin for the title of alpha king.” As soon as Theo said that, I
remembered what Marko had told me.
Janet and I were shocked. We shared a glance and then turned to stare at him; he looked confident in his claims. If
he fights Corbin, he will win the match within a heartbeat. He was a lot stronger than Corbin and any other wolf
alive.
“You are going to fight with him for the title?” I asked, and Theo smirked, hunching over me and drawing his face
closer to mine.
“No!” He shook his head, whispering the word in my face. I narrowed my eyes and kept staring at his face because
I knew he had more to say. “I am not going to fight him,” he said.
“Then who is going to fight him for the title?” I raised my brow and scoffed, but the seriousness of his face intrigued
me.
“You will, Enya!” he finally said, leaving me stunned.
