LOGINRoxanne's Point Of View âWhatâs wrong? Are you fine?â He asked, concern laced in his voice.I stared at Alpha Alejandro with confusion dangling in my eyes. I couldn't believe that he was asking me if I was okay. I'd have felt like I was imagining things if I wasn't kneeling before him like a slave does before her master. Well, it's not like he cares about me or something. âAnswer me, Roxie. Is everything okay with you?âRoxie? I thought I was imagining things when he called me Roxie earlier, but hearing him say it again, I was convinced that it was real. But why was he suddenly addressing me like that? That's a pet name only a few people address me with, people like my friends, my mom and Nanny Olivia. And as for Alpha Alejandro, he's not my favourite person, therefore I don't think he should address me that way.Nevertheless, I forced myself to answer. âNo, your Majesty.â I shook my head. He had ordered me to address him as Lucien whenever we're alone, but deep down, I can't bring
Alpha's Alejandro's POV I took a deep breath as soon as the car pulled up in the driveway in my house. The ride was so long that I found myself wondering when we were going to get home.âVanthorn and his son should be made to go two days without food. And after that, they can be released.â I said to my Beta through the mind link. I'd instructed him to stay over at Vanthorn's pack, to monitor and make sure my instructions were carried out.âWe should be worried about when they'll wake up, your Majesty.â Mason's chuckles resonated through the mind link, and my lips curled into a faint smile. âI have a feeling that the guards did a poor job, Mason. Vanthorn and his son should have died. Maybe only then will I be happy.â Mason scoffed. âAre you being serious right now, Jan? You wanted the guards to kill them?ââDid I stutter, Mason?â âOf course you didn't, Lucien. You didn't.â He chuckled lightly.âDon't drive me crazy, Mason.â âAnd tomorrow, you'll say you didn't like her. Yet, you
Alpha Alejandro's POVâGet the car ready.â I called my Beta as soon as Roxanne walked out of my room. I couldn't believe what she just said to me. That her step brother tried to force himself on her. And in return, she was punished, even though she wasn't at fault.That bastard! I visited him a few days ago. And never for once did he tell me about this. He lied about forcing her to be my breeder. He claimed that she was the one who wanted to become one.According to my grandmother, women shouldn't be forced to be breeders. No. It should be something that they should be willing to do. But in Roxanne's case, she looked like she was forced to be here. And now there is only one way to find out.âWhere are we going?â He asked me. âIf I'm not mistaken, you don't have any appointments with anyone. So whereâŠ.ââVanthornâs Pack.â I gave a curt response. âVanthorn's Pack? You were there a few days ago, Alpha.â âI'm sure I didn't hire you to ask me questions, did I?â I said as I made my way to
Roxanne's Point Of View I didn't know how long I'd been sitting on the river bank. But I knew that it's been hours since I came here staring at nothing in particular, just the water as they flowed over. It's been hours since I ran away from Luna Kaitlyn's presence. Now that I've cooled off a bit, I couldn't help but feel bad about the way I had yelled at the woman. I just couldn't help myself. I took a deep breath to calm my nerves. It's not entirely my fault. I was pissed at her grandson. IâŠ.âThere you are.â A familiar voice sounded behind me and I turned around to see Lucia making her way towards me. At first, I wanted to run away too, because I wanted to be left alone, but I decided against it. âLucia.â I acknowledged her presence and she flashed me a small smile. âWhat are you doing here, all alone, Roxie?â She asked me, that smile still on her face.I exhaled sharply before answering. âNothing.ââYou don't like our pack, do you?â She blurted out and I had to stop myself fro
Alejandro's POV âThe poor girl is your mate, Jan. You can't just treat her that way.â My grandma said in a calm voice. I'm even surprised that she isn't yelling at me already. I was half expecting her to yell at me, scold me, remind me how I disappointed her by thinking about letting her be introduced, despite how I'd promised her that I'll never let my mate go through the same fate.âI knowâŠ.ââNo, son. I don't think you do.â She cut me off. âBecause if you do, you wouldn't have acted the way you did. You wouldn't have sat back and watched her ....ââWell, I wasn't planning on letting it happen.â I interrupted her. I have no idea how I was going to make her believe me, but I was going to. I'm sure she would. I took a deep breath before starting. âYesterday, when the discussion about the introduction came up, I didn't want it to happen. I made her know that she should be grateful that I didn't let her go through something as traumatising as that shitty introductionâŠ.ââWell, let me
Alejandro's POV âIf you had had your way, would you have really fucked my mate?â I asked Theo as I stared at him in close scrutiny. âIs this why you called me here, to ask ifâŠ.ââAnswer the fucking question, Theo. Would you have fucked her, all in the name of some stupid tradition?â I cut him off. I never yelled. didn't need to. And from the way Theo's hands were shaking, I could tell that he was scared already.Exactly how it should be. He should be scared! âUhmâŠ. Yeah. You called us back, remember? And besides, this is our Pack's tradition. It has been in existence way before you were born. So it's not my fault that I wanted to honour it. Besides, your mother was introduced to the Alphas too. SheâŠ.âThat was the straw that broke the horse's back, because in no time, I was standing in front of him, with my hands wrapped around his neck in a tight grip, as I pinned him to the wall. If I added a little pressure now, he'll definitely die.âSay one more word about my mother again, and
