Mystery of the Rejected Alpha ✔

Chapter Fifty-Eight

Alina

After the meal, everyone returned to their designated tasks. My pack members and I sat there awkwardly not knowing where to go. Jace had still not returned. James and Drake were out of sight as well.

So are they going to make us sit like that? — Neil mind-linked me. I looked at him. He had an irritated expression on his face.

I'm tired of sitting like this. I want to go for a run. — I whined.

By the way, you are not allowed to shift.

Wait why?

I don't want you gaining more attention at this point in time. — He said.

I don't quite understand what you are saying.

Look, Alina, just focus on staying alive. That's all I ask.

You make no sense, Neil!

I'm just looking out for you. Can you please tell your grumpy mate to stop looking at me the way he does?

I snorted.

No, seriously Alina. The way he glares at me, I find that uncomfortable. Almost like a potential threat. — Neil groaned.

I feel Alpha James is just jealous. — Ron added.

Why would he be jealous? — I scoffed.

I glared at Ron. He had a smile on his face. — Because he thinks of Beta Neil as a competitor.

I rolled my eyes at Ron's comment.

Where did they run off to? — Neil asked moving impatiently in his seat.

I had not seen Hailey either and was not sure whether she was with James.

Neil! What if our pack gets attacked while we are here? — I mind-linked him as concern took over my thoughts.

Don't worry about that. I have got it figured out. Moreover, I think the Dark Moon pack is in for a ride at this point in time. We should just sit back and see what happens.

How can we sit and spectate when we ourselves are in danger? — I furrowed my eyebrows and asked.

Let's say the abandon wolves lunge on us while we are here. We can easily rip their throats and guts with no problem whatsoever.

Yes...

Just don't initiate anything at this point. We have to play it safe. I'm certain the shapeshifters won't appear themselves because they are low in the count. They wouldn't risk the last few of their breeding options.

"I'm sorry for making you all wait like that." James appeared with Drake. The sight of his face made my wolf pur again.

"We have arranged rooms for you to rest and retire for the night," Drake announced.

Sounds like they are trying to make us go to sleep and then slaughter us. — Neil snickered sarcastically. Yeah, suckers, like as if we are sleeping.
