The Rejection

Chapter Seventeen

I wake up to Beast licking my face and barking non stop. I giggle and Lyle groans. We both sit up as Beast sits on my lap. I look over and his puppy training pad is completely destroyed and gross. I look at Lyle.

"Your team love," I say and he scrunches up his nose.

"Nope, no way, you wanted him princess," he says. I sigh and set Beast on Lyle's lap. I pick up the training pad and throw it out. I replace it and then wash my hands. "Oh, princess, I forgot to tell you. My pack is moving in today. So you and Beast will be moving into my room." I smile and kiss him. Beast yips and nudges his face between ours, licking us both.

"Ew, puppy breath," I say and Lyle laughs. We make our way downstairs with Beast on our heels.

-------------------------------------------

After breakfast I move all mine and Beast's belongings into Lyle's room while Caroline and Julian prepare the house.

At noon the pack arrives. I'm surrounded by hundreds of men, women, and children. They only know me as their future Luna. They introduce themselves and then Lyle and I send them to their rooms. Families on the top floor, excluding mine and Lyle's luxurious room, couples on the second, single unmated wolves on the third, and guest rooms on the fourth. Fifth floor is where the living room, kitchen, and entertainment room are.

I look over and get mad, growling a bit as a girl my age with brown hair is too close to Lyle. Jealousy fuels me and I walk over to her.

"Lyle baby. You know I'm the true Luna. Not her," the brunette whines. I grab her by her ponytail and throw her to the floor.

"I'm the true Luna of this pack. I don't know who you are but you will not disrespect me in my own home. I don't want you anywhere near my mate again. Got it?" I say to her, pressing a foot on her chest, leaning in close to her face, and holding her head up to me by her ponytail. I let her hair go and her head bounces off the marble floor. "Fucking skank." I walk back over to Lyle.

"Wow I never knew you could do that," he says. I smirk and kiss him. Beast pads over to me and I pick him up and pet him. The pack snickers at the brunette getting up off the floor.

"Don't you know not to mess with a Luna, slut?" A male, about nineteen, says. She growls.

"Shut up, Johnny," she says and storms off. He laughs and makes his way up the stairs. I look at Lyle.

"Who was that?" I ask, Beast nibbles on my finger as I stand there waiting for an answer.

"That was Ariana. Pack slut as we call her. All unmated males go to her as a one night stand because she's an easy lay. I had a short fling with her a year after a tragic situation hit me. She's wanted to be Luna ever since," Lyle explains. Oh so after he lost his first mate he fucked Ariana out of grief.

"Will you ever tell me about that tragic incident, love?" I ask. He looks me in the eyes and gives me a small smile.

"When I'm ready princess," he says. I nod and Beast yips. "Let's go get ready for dinner."
