My Muted Alpha | ✔️

CHAPTER FORTY TWO

"BOW BEFORE ME!" The man roared.

A moment of silence awaited him, causing him to get angrier. "Did you hear what I said?! I said, SUBMIT BEFORE ME! Your alpha has been defeated, and by law, it means the victor has his title! I am your alpha now!"

Hesitation appeared on all the pack members faces, before slowly, one by one, kneeled and showed their necks, submitting to him.

Coco and Azrael seemed reluctant, as defeat rose on their faces.

They too, showed their necks, hating it with every fiber of their being.

When it came down to me, all kneeled and I refused. I knew where I stood, and I would rather die than submit to this asshole. My heart was still breaking, while tears still streamed down my face.

I just lost the love of my life.

And I knew what to do before anything else.

Just like that, his eyes soon rested on me.

Seeing how I refused to obey him, he walked towards me in angry strides. "You bitch, just because you're Luna, doesn't mean you can't submit to me. I am your alpha now, therefore, you belong to me!" He paused, looking up and down my body, licking his lips in a disgusting manner.

"Or... we could take this to the bedroom. I can forgive you for your rudeness to me if you do as I say. What do you say, Rhea?"

Anger quickly resided in me, that this sick man could possibly think I'll open my legs to him. Who did he think I was?!

"No." I replied harshly.

His face twisted in madness. Before I knew it, he rose his hand and slapped me to the ground. To the point where it split my bottom lip open. My vision became blurry, as I recovered to the best of my ability. Spitting some of the blood out, I looked back up to him in defiance.

As he looked down at me, he growled, "You will do as I say! You're a women. Your purpose is to open your damn legs and be the slut that you are!"

A moment of silence rose in the pack, as I found myself laughing. Despite everything that has happened, I could find myself laughing.

What a pathetic male.

A sexist one that deserved to die.

Finding my voice and the strength in me, I snarled, "Over my dead body. I, Rhea Grey, challenge you for the title of Alpha!"

Mutters and mumbles quickly erupted from the pack, their faces morphing into shock and disbelief. Even the man, seemed surprised of my declaration. It was then he laughed, "You? Challenge me? I think not. A mere woman can't be alpha. You cannot be serious."

I clenched my fists at his words, about to retaliate when Azrael spoke up lowly.

"Technically, Alpha. She can challenge you. Usually, after a victor defeats the previous alpha, they are to ask if anyone else dare opposes their rule. Clearly, Luna Rhea, does. She has a right, and you must obey to it. Her being a woman has nothing to do with it, so I suggest you cease your comments before more challenges occur."

The man clicked his tongue, glaring at Azrael with a glance before turning to me.

"As you wish."

Before I knew it, we took our positions as the challenges continued.

Grinning at me, the man taunted, "Just saying, once you lose, I'll have my way with you. Even if it's a dead corpse I'm doing."

I shivered in disgust, what a sicko.
