Rejected by the Beta, Claimed by the Alpha

Chapter 6

Alpha Clinton was about to speak when Charles signaled him that he wanted to. He could not say it directly that he gave up the position of the Alpha because of Clara but knew that he had to make them see and respect Jaxon for who he was. Whatever would happen if he wanted to marry an omega in the near future would be between him and the pack members but for now, Charles was more interested in making this sacrifice for the woman he loved.

“Everyone, the title of the Alpha goes with conditions I cannot meet. Since my big brother is here, he should take responsibilities.”

Clara was displeased. She was directly trying to create problems for the Alpha to change his mind but Charles was foolishly supporting it. Not wanting to incur Jaxon’s wrath upon realizing that the title of the Alpha rightfully belonged to him except that he had chosen his mate over it so this was not much of a big deal if his mate was no longer in the picture. Clara also could not refute the fact that Jaxon had a better charisma to lead the pack than Charles. Putting her thoughts together, she wanted to get out of the mess she created, saying,

“Since Charles approves of it, then so be it. Congratulations, Alpha Jaxon!”

Jaxon raised his brows but did not respond. Clara was embarrassed, as he turned around and addressed the pack members.

“Everyone, I am happy to be back. Together, we shall grow this pack and make it stronger. I have learnt a lot within the three years I have been away and we need the pack to grow in wealth as well so I need

everyone on board for this vision to be achieved. Talking about achievement, we need mutual respect. Whether you are the Alpha, Beta, Delta or even an Omega, we all have responsibilities for which reason no one and I mean, no one must look down on the other. I will be forced to implement punishments if anyone looks down or talks trash to any omega in this pack. Snow mountain pack is not like the rest and everyone is special to us.”

Jaxon’s tone was a blend of confidence, firmness and respect. It also exhumed an authority that forced everyone to succumb. This time, the cheers were louder among the Omegas, as most of them yelled, “you will live long, Alpha Jaxon.” This was the first time an Alpha of any pack gave such an order to stop others from bullying them, for which reason Jaxon became a g od

to them.

Jaxon pursed his lips but did not smile, only nodding a little. He had more to say to them. “Also, egg stoning is banned in this pack for whatever reason. Anyone caught doing so, would have to join the rogues.”

Everyone began to clap so Clara forced herself to do so as well. Whereas, her expression was very hard. It felt as if Jaxon was directly addressing her, though his gaze remained on the pack members. The aura he emitted, made her uncomfortable, she could not as well confront him. Whereas, he was not done and continued to say,

“Last but not the least, I will not have my coronation yet. I will like to do so together with my mate when she returns.”

“When she returns? Is it his human mate?’ Clara thought through his words. Whereas she was confused because Charles told her that Jaxon left because of his mate so why would he return without her? And why was he expecting her to return? Clara reserved her questions for later. She would either get her answers from Charles or Jaxon himself.

However, since she wanted to be the Luna, it was time to make Jaxon fall in love with her. Where ever his mate was or whoever she was, Clara was going to make sure that Jaxon forget about the bi tch and fell in love her. If there was anything that the moon goddess blessed her with, it was her beauty with her hourglass figure and blue eyes that could draw any man. No other woman in the pack had such beauty and she swam gracefully in it.

There was confusion written on the faces of all the pack members as well but Jaxon had ended his speech. He also did not give room for any kind of questions whatsoever. Alice smiled from the distance. She was the only one together with the old Alpha and Beta, who knew the reason for Jaxon’s blend of kindness and ruthlessness. She also knew that he was indeed in love with her daughter and would accept her when she returned. Calmness returned to her soul and it was filled with renewed hope.

Jaxon whispered something to Charles and walked away with his father. Charles immediately addressed the pack members.

“Everyone, our Alpha has a few things to take care of today so I will be leading the training as usual. If he is through, he will come and join us.”

No one argued as they left in singles and pairs to the gym to begin their usual morning trainings. Jaxon led his father to the dining room, refusing to have breakfast at the packhouse.

“Son, you did not eat anything throughout yesterday. Please eat something,” the old Alpha implored but Jaxon smiled a little.

“My mother-in-law cooked for me yesterday and I intend to have breakfast with her since she’s lonely.”

The old Alpha smiled in admiration, happy with the way Jaxon wanted to structure and lead the pack. Being an omega would no longer mean they would be at the mercy of other pack members. Jaxon

went to get groceries for Alice, even more than he brought the previous day. Alice was shocked. The foodstuffs Jaxton brought yesterday had not even run out and he brought more. She wished that Jaxon had returned earlier. Maybe, Rowena would not have left.

“Alpha, this is too much.”

“You are my mum. I eat here so I don’t think it’s too much for the both of us,” Jaxon took the groceries inside her house for her this time around, since he no longer felt like a visitor. Alice understood as well that Rowena must have left but Jaxon was there to stay so she had to continue cooking for two like she used to do before.

“Alright. Please don’t buy more groceries tomorrow. I will let you know when I run out of it.”

“Okay but who does your gardening? I will get someone to do it for you. The cleaning as well.” Jaxon did not give her room to refuse but the woman was still adamant.

“Alpha, these things are the works of an omega.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Don’t worry. You cook for me so I have to get someone to take care of these things,” Jaxon insisted. Alice knew that she would fail again if she tried to kick against it, thereby accepting his kindness wholeheartedly. Also, she was sure to mention. it when she began to communicate with Rowena. She had promised to send letters every week.

“Thank you, Alpha. You are kind. I will make sure to mention you in my letter to Rowena, so she would be at peace. I believe. that if she had met you before, she would not have left.”

Jaxon smiled with satisfaction before leaving for training at the gym. He did not want Rowena to return without completing her studies and he wanted to ensure that Rowena worried less about her mother.

Seeing the woman smiling, he felt like he was seeing Rowena smiling at him. With a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips, he began to jog to the gym.

Reaching there, the smile disappeared from his face, as he was greatly annoyed when Clara kept smiling at him but what pis sed him off the most was when she approached him, saying,

“Alpha, Charles said there will be dinner at the packhouse and he invited me over. I hope you don’t mind.”
