Chapter 6

Xavier “Do you think everything will work out well? I’m sure the elders would be against it, they have all pitched their daughters to you…” Louis muttered and I scoffed. “I’m alpha, Louis. I can make a decision with or without their blessings. I want her and that’s final.” I retorted and he stared at me with a frown. “Don’t tell me you like her because she’s too timid to be your type of woman. You love them bold and gracious… She’s far from that.” He pointed out and I burst into laughter. “I won’t have you talk about my Luna that way… She’s the complete opposite of what I like and it makes it easier to ignore even if my wolf tries to act funny.” I answered and Louis exhaled deeply. “I feel bad for her… She’s too innocent for you. You’re nothing but a selfish bastard, she’ll be losing, especially when you divorce her. Nobody would dare be with the woman you’ve left.” “I’ll find her a husband before the divorce…” I retorted and he burst into laughter. “What do you think the beta would say about your union? I heard he hates this one and her mother.” He whispered and I shrugged. “He’s…” I was still speaking when the beta walked inside, panting heavily like he had jogged to this place. “Alpha Xavier.” He called softly with his head bowed and I turned to him. “Yes, Darren.” “There's news making rounds now and I’m hoping to hear that it’s false… Are you getting married to my bastard?” He asked and I flashed him a glare. “No, I’m getting married to your second daughter.” I answered and he shook his head. “No! She’s nothing but a fucking bastard like her mom! She’s a cheat and I’m sure you will regret it, Alpha… Please do not make this mistake, you can have anybody, I can give her elder sister to you… I’m watching out for you, Alpha Xavier.” He muttered and Louis concealed a smile. “Thank you for your concern but I’ve made my decision and I can take care of myself. If you have any problem, please take it out with your daughter.” I replied and he shook his head. “No! She’s unworthy of being your mate… She’s nothing but a bitch! She has a mate and now she dumped her mate just because she wants to be with you, she’s nothing but an opportunist who wants to sleep her way to the top.” He relies and I frowned heavily. She has a mate… I clenched my fists and just as I was about to speak, she scoffed. “Really? Is this how low you’re willing to stoop just because you don’t want to see me happy?” Her voice was filled with pain and a tear slipped down her cheek. She wiped it away and faked a smile. “All my life I’ve done nothing but be a good daughter, I’ve never disrespected you or done anything to infuriate you yet you hate me for no reason… Mom was loyal to a fault but you treated her like trash, you threw her out when she needed you the most and you refused to help but now you feel you can come in here to voice out your opinion?” She scoffed and Darren’s eyes flashed with anger. “How dare you talk to me! You piece of trash! Don’t you have a mate!” He barked and she smiled. “No… Because I rejected him… I just realized I’m slightly different from mom because unlike her, I’m not going to stay with a cheating man, I’m going to pick up the shreds of my heart and walk away rather than suffer in silence.” She replied and he growled at her. “How dare you! Do you think being the Luna would keep you safe! This marriage isn’t happening! I oppose it as your father!” He thundered and she burst into laughter. I wondered if there was ever a moment where she laughed because she wanted to. “Need I remind you that you disowned me a few hours ago before throwing me out of your house? I’m sorry Beta Darren but my father is dead, you mean nothing to me.” She replied coldly and a little smile appeared on my lips. “Alpha Xavier…” “My decision has been made.” I replied and he glared at her for a moment. “You will regret this!” He promised as he left and Louis stared at Aurora with shock. Her shoulders were slumped like she had countless burdens on her weak body. “I’m so sorry for that, Alpha… I promise it’ll never repeat itself.” She pleaded and I nodded. “It’s fine, I knew there would be opposition.” I answered and she nodded. “Excuse me, alpha.” She muttered as she turned around and walked away. “WOW… I’m shocked… I can’t believe the timid and tiny woman can go against the beta and oh, she’s fucking right about him… He does nothing but chase women around… And she rejected her mate! Damn that’s insane… Congratulations, Alpha, you just found your female version! What a perfect match.” He muttered with a smile and I glared at him. “She would be good in the pack business, I was worried about her getting bullied but I know that she’s the best option. Invite all the Alphas, I’m glad Wayne did the insemination, I’m sure we would get results in a few weeks time…” “Wayne, you know I don’t trust that bastard one inch…” “It’s fine, he’s one of the best doctors in the pack, you’ve got nothing to be worried about.” I replied and he nodded. “Alright Alpha, I just hope we don’t regret this. So what’s the theme of the party? Something elaborate and are you guys gonna exchange vows? You know ultimately you’ll have to mark her in order to make people less suspicious?” “I’ll have the mark taken care off and for her to have my scent, I would do the scent bathing for her… The party is going to be a reception of the amazing vows we shared secretly.” I answered and he burst into laughter. “Alpha…” A guard mumbled as he walked inside with his head bowed. “What?” “The elders have refused to accept your invitation, according to them, you cannot marry an omega, they said she’s unworthy of a great man like you.” He explained, fear coursing through his veins as he spoke. “Fine, instruct the guards at the gate to stop all the elders from attending the party.” I ordered and his eyes widened with shock but he nodded hastily.
