Another tedious and monotonous day. Jett could only sigh at how his life had turned how to be.He would have been better off dead. He could just kill himself but that would be even more inglorious, his name was already being squabbled upon, committing self-slaughter wouldn't bring him the consensus that he didn't warrant, he wouldn't rest well, knowing his people were in this pack, under the superiority of some eccentric Alpha, at least most of them found their mates. They weren't so unlucky as he was.Jett ruffled his white hair, realizing how the tip of his hair was now swabbing on his shoulder blades. He seriously needed a hair cut but he wasn't in the right sense of mind to get one. What was the point?Rounding the corner, Jett and his little group of friends waltzed in at the banquet hall where dinner was supposed to take place but the long table was already filled with members of the Blood Pearl Pack. They halted on their steps
Alpha Xavier sighed in boredom, keeping his hands behind him. “If you are going to maraud me of my fun, you better do something else, Jett. I’m not a very patient man” he asserted, that amusement in his dark eyes never for once dissolving.Jett’s eyes flickered to his Gamma barely breathing on the floor, covered in his bloody clothes, and flesh tore through, his gaze averted to his other friends, they remained horror-struck as well, words refusing to leave their mouth.“I’m waiting, Jett”“What the fuck do you want, tell me I’ll do anything, let go of my friends!” Jett yelled in frustration. It was all his fault. Look at his people, suffering because he failed to protect them. Fighting on a dinner table earned this kind of treatment, what would happen to them if any of them created a much more serious infraction?“Kneel and receive the lashes for your Gamma, you’re an Alpha, you will be able to take it”
With an aggrieved keenness, his fist had collided with the wall mirror in the bathroom.He snuffled, the glass shattered into tiny pieces just like his pulverized prestige, his obliterated reputation, everything was ravaged like this mirror.Jett heckled his dazzling white hair, ransacking it, racking it as it messily scattered, sticking in every direction. He placed his hands down on the sink and leaned his body down but his gaze landed on a broken piece of mirror on the floor, revealing his reflection.Unhurriedly he crouched and picked up the piece and his sanguine eyes stared back at him, formidable, malignant, filled with exasperation, indignation, choler, animosity, every negative emotion that he couldn’t hush up remained in his eyes, showcasing. Then his gaze went down his chest where a bloody line drew across his arm to his chest from the whip the commander used on him earlier. Jett gripped the broke piece of glass a bit tighte
“Damn, your back is wholly destroyed!”Ace heard the other male standing above him clamor at the horrendous, bloody sight of his messed up back while he was lying on his paunch on the bed, eyes widely opened but staring into nonentity.“Seem like the Commander had no compassion, tsk” he shook his head pitifully while sitting on the side of the bed, his hand slowly went down to Ace’s back and trailed his finger against the lines caused by the whip, making Ace winced at the hellacious pain. “The commander is a very pernicious man. You and your little pack need to be vigilant of him and you should know, that no one receives special treatment. Children have their retribution for breaking laws and imagine what happens to adults. It’s a death wish”Ace had no idea why this wolf kept ranting, he had been doing nothing but remark on his back and he didn’t even know who he was, what was he doing in the commander’s room?
He wiped off the sweats tackling down his forehead with his forehand and continued wiping the sink clean with a rag. But abruptly, he wavered, his hands stopped working when he felt an obnoxious sentiment in the pit of his stomach.He blinked repeatedly, his hand going down to his stomach, clenching. Suddenly, he remembered it was that time of the month again. A whimper nearly decamped his lips but he clasped his mouth shut, guzzling back the sound."Alexis, where is my fucking food!" a fastidious voice came from outside."I'm coming!" he replied, deciding to ignore. Perhaps he would be able to hold it till he got his suppressants, which he didn't need anymore but his counterpart had refused to glimpse at him twice since he started working in this mansion, his plans of getting close to his mate flunked even before he could try, heckling him back in the face. Perhaps, his mate didn't find him desirable enough, after
Shoving the door open, Riyan ambled in with his mate coddled in his arms. He sauntered into his room and headed towards the queen-size bed in the middle of the room and gradually placed him down but Alexis was scrambling to get off the bed."What are you doing?"Alexis froze, he looked up at his mate and let out a nervous laugh before getting up on his feet. "I'm dirty, I don't want to stain the sheets. I will return to my room, thank you!" he bowed respectfully and tried to walk past his mate but Riyan grabbed his wrist and pulled him back, the force had him gasping as he fell on a sitting position on the bed."I don't know if you realize but you are going through your heat. Zac might not be an Alpha buts he's very much a man and a feral animal" Alexis blinked, sinking in Riyan's words. "I will be fine, I've been living my life, going through heats every month, it's no different this time" he stood up
Sluggisly, he got off the bed, his bare feet landing on the arctic floor that crept through his toes. He strolled towards the dresser at the corner and opened it, he beamed at the rich flowery scent that graced his nose.He puffed, taking more of that savory scent that drove his wolf voracious . He stretched his hand inside and took out a white sleeves shirt. He brought it close to his chest and breathe in more of that scent as he turned and ambled back to the bed.The sweltering, the surging fervidness in his body calmed, his Omega wolf purred, the cumbersome pain halted and he sighed in euphoria. He couldn’t remember the last time he felt this serenity, which was never. He placed the shirt on the bed and slowly discarded his clothes, letting them slide to the floor. He picked it up again and slipped those sleeves through his slim hands and slowly clogged the buttons one at a time. He smiled when he was done, brushing his ha
Jett tried to ignore the gaze that bore through his face as he stuck his mouth with food. He glanced around the dinner table, noticing how reserved and how everyone was minding their business. He didn’t fail to notice the empty seats beside the Alpha and the commander. Were they preserved for their mates? But Ace was sitting beside him and the commander didn’t make any attempt to heave the Gamma to his side then, who were those seats for?Deciding to mind his business, Jett went back to eating and the silent dinner continued till he heard the Alpha clear his throat, finally tearing his eyes away from Jett, for which he couldn’t be any more grateful.“How’s the festival coming up, Commander?” Alpha Xavier turned to his commander, wiping his lips with a napkin. “Are the men ready?” “Yes Alpha” the commander had replied.Alpha Xavier reeled his head to his mate, si
