Chapter 67
Then again, I am a different case compared to other Alphas.
An Alpha not blessed with a mate can’t exactly need one to begin with.
“I’m your mate.”
The woman, who I momentarily forgot was still standing there, said. The wolf inside me growled, red
eyes glowing brilliantly in the cage I was keeping him in. The fury I felt for the woman falsely claiming to
be my mate when I don’t have one, only added to the bitterness of my lonely reality. It was like having
salt rubbed into your freshly opened wound and then soaked with a gallon of alcohol before being
pressed down on with shards of broken glass.
She was testing my nerves.
“I’d advise you to refrain from making any more foolish jokes, Luna Walker.”
She flinched, hearing the name she held but didn’t use when introducing herself to me. Nightwake was
a pack I heard of. The pack that had failed to aid an ally, Duskfall, during a rogue attack. The very
same pack that had fallen by two in the ranks. Alpha Landon Walker and his Luna, Hestial Walker led

I didn’t know the Alpha personally, but I doubt he’d approve of what his Luna was doing.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, R- Alpha Locksworth. You’re my mate.”
She walked closer to me, reaching out to lay a hand on my bicep.
I almost cringe away, revolted in her touch meaning to seduce me. It was downright degrading for her
to even try. Did she think I was weak enough to succumb to her advances? This wasn’t the first time
women shamelessly threw themselves at me, and each time I would deflect them. She was no
exception. Hell, I had more reason to reject her seeing as she’s claimed and mated to a fellow Alpha. I
had no interest in the act of self indulgence nor did I want to give any of them a reason in thinking they
could form some type of relationship with me.
My concern and only concern is my pack.
Sex was just a trivial thing I could live without.
I’ve been doing so for years and I had no plans on changing anything now.
I hastily pull back from her, my wolf beginning to surface out but the interference of Williams prevented
me from going berserk.
“Alpha Locksworth, calm down. Reign in your wolf and we will solve this matter peacefully.”
He tried to reason. He knew not to touch me, anyone who would try would surely be losing an arm that
very same second. Alpha Foster, Hales, and Monterey exchange looks with one another before
returning their gazes back to Hestia in shock.
“I am warning you, Luna. You are threading on very thin ice. Any more senseless remarks from you
and I won’t hesitate to show you your place.”
My voice was deeper than usual, my wolf already taking half of the control from me. He was hellbent on
showing her that her thoughtless claims wasn’t something that could be overseen. He found it insulting,
humiliating, disgraceful and the list goes on. Her ‘claim’ on me was also seen as a threat. By claiming
me, she was also claiming the title as my Alpha Female. Even without having one. I felt a need to
defend it. The primal part of me urged me to.
“B But you’re my mate”

She whimpered out, tears beginning to spill down her cheeks. I roll my eyes. Did she believe I was one
to fall weak to tears? I see tears almost everyday in my life at the torture chambers. Grown ass men,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcrying and begging for their lives. As if I couldn’t handle the sight of a mere female crying. A conniving
one at that. I’ve seen dead rogues with acting skills better than that.
I see perfectly well through her little act, but it would seem that my associates couldn’t. I sense their
emotions of pity being directed toward her. Pity that basically said they believed her. Chancellor
Williams was not part of the bunch. I was certain he saw through her as well.
Suddenly Hestia gets down on her knees, clutching onto my legs with her arms. Her hold around me is
tight. Almost suffocating like a leech. I’m tempted to just walk away and let her fall on her face, but the
Beta behind her makes his move. He glares down at me, wolf taking over, with his body all tense from
anger. My wolf did not like this one bit. He saw a challenge that was just begging to be taken up. I have
to remind myself, Chancellor Williams will not be happy.
Though I don’t answer to anyone, I do respect the man.
“Hestia! Get up, this is not fitting for you.”
He ushers, trying to grab her arm from around my legs but she nudges away from his grasp. I feel a
vein pop from my temple, my frustration already blackening out all my logical thinking. It takes her one
second before she looks back up to me.
“Please, darling. I-I can be a good mate. 1- I wouldn’t have been with Landon had I known you were
here all along! We can make this work, please. Please give us a chance.”
