Chapter 8


    Without knowing who the woman was, Charles was already in support. He would want any woman for


    his brother who was not of a lowly birth. ra’s nails were digging into her palms, almost drawing


    blood. This Alpha was going to ruin her ns. and she had to do something before Jaxon gives in to


    meeting this said woman.


    “There are a lot of women in this pack.” ra said, drawing everyone’s attention. Jaxon was distressed


    by her unruly interruptions and said to Charles.


    “Brother, can you tell your woman to stop interrupting us? She should speak if only asked a question.


    This meeting is not for children.” Indirectly, he was pointing out that ra behaved like a child. ra


    was chagrined, also realizing that for some odd reason, Jaxon never spoke to her directly, always


    doing so through Charles, whereas he would speak to everyone else directly. It made her


    ufortable but also more attracted to him. If she had Jaxon, everyone would how to her because


    unlike Charles, he was not so friendly and people already feared him. The more ruthless an Alpha was,


    the better, as they


    said.


    Charles agreed with Jaxon because it was true. He was not liking ra’s behavior himself at all. There


    was also the subtle jealousy he was trying to not wee as well. Charles would not like it if ra


    liked Jaxon more than him. In times like this, he could not fall on his wolf, Cal, since thetter was


    upset for what he did to Rowena. He was never in support of Charles


    and ra.


    “ra, you should behave,” Charles cautioned. ra forced a smile, looking embarrassed. Jaxon was


    too difficult. It was as if he hated her and she could not point a finger at his reason for doing so.


    Whatever it was, she was going to make sure that she found out the root cause of it including the so–


    called woman.


    Jaxon focused on Alpha Zu and said, “to answer your question, Alpha Zu, the truth is, I already


    found my mate but we are going through a storm. I promised to give her all the time she needs so I am


    currently out of the market.”


    ra’s expression grimed instantly but since Charles was engrossed in the discussion, he did not


    notice. How would ra get to know this woman? Even if she had to kill, she will but for now, she


    would just have to lie low until she got the identity since Jaxon did not seem like he was in a hurry to be


    coronated. For another Luna to lord over her? No way. Perhaps she could also ask Charles about this


    woman. Yes, that would be great.


    Alpha Zu was grateful for Jaxon’s honesty, saying in in terms, “Thank you for telling me. I would


    have been hoping for nothing but this woman you are waiting for, I hope she is worth it.” Alpha Zu


    had not said it but Jaxon already knew that it was his daughter he was referring to, for which reason


    had ensued to end it there. He could not stand ruining a good rtionship because of trivial matters.


    Even if Jaxon had not met Rowena, he would never had agreed to marry a woman who was not his


    mate.


    “To tell you the truth. Alpha Zu, she is too good for me and I don’t think I deserve her,” Jaxon smiled


    and said honestly but since Charles knew the woman, he rolled his eyes at Jaxon’s statement but did


    not interrupt. ‘An Alpha not deserving of an Omega? Tell me about it.”


    “I am happy to hear that. I just see a struggle ahead. I believe a lot of young women will be dying to


    have you even if you are not their mate,” Alpha Zu said, slightly disappointed. He knew that Charles


    was already out of the market and had been looking forward to telling Jaxon about his daughter. Sadly,


    he also had eyes on somebody else.


    “They will then be greatly disappointed since I am a respecter of the mate bond,” Jaxon revealed.


    Hearing the mate bond, Alpha Zu was confused and so was ra but somehow, Alpha Zu


    deemed it wise to not probe further since Jaxon’s mind was already made up. ra did not also have


    the guts to ask after all the warnings she had received from Charles. When the two Alphas left to sign


    the documents, it was Charles’s turn to entertain Luna Zenna, which he did perfectly.


    After the guest lefts, Jaxon immediately retired to his room but Charles walked ra to her house. It


    was a cold night and since they were immune to cold, they revered in it. ra used the opportunity to


    ask,


    “Charles, does your brother have a problem with his mate?”


    Charles’s lips thinned but it was not a smile. It was more like a scoff and he turned to face ra, asking


    directly, “Don’t you think that you are bing too concerned for my brother?” ra was d it was


    night and Charles could not see her scarlet face. Something in her wanted to give up but another one


    reminded her of the fact that she wanted to be the Luna. She would never be if she marries Charles for


    which reason, she had to put up a strong defense.


    “Charles, if I love you, then I have to love your whole family too, right?” Charles red into her eyes


    and was lost. Was he imagining things? Perhaps ra was only showing how much she cared for his


    family which was natural since he also cared for hers but knowing how Jaxon was, Charles advised,


    “Right but I’ll prefer that you don’t show him any care. He does not want it from you.”


    ra’s expression dulled. It seemed that she was not going to get the answers she wanted from


    Charles but feigning worry. she faked a teary voice too, asking. “Did I offend him? What did I do to


    him?”


    Charles was deted, not knowing how to tell her. He was ashamed that his brother was waiting for


    Rowena, for which reason he could not tell ra about it. She might look down on them for doing so.


    As such, her remarked,

    “ra, just stay away from Jaxon, okay? Everyone has their own demons to fight and he is not


    different from them.”


    “Alright, if you say so,” ra said defeatedly. Since Charles was not going to tell her, she just had to


    find other means to do so herself.


    The next day. Jaxon decided to see Alice after training since he was not going to purchase groceries.


    What he purchased thest time could them for a week or more. Usually, he would use the opportunity


    as a morning exercise and jog all the way. Also, it felt like putting himself into Rowena’s shoes, since


    she used to walk all the way from the packhouse to the omega’smunity.


    Strangely, he could not help but feel that someone was following him. As soon as he stopped, the


    person stopped as well. Jaxon lived in the packhouse so if someone attacked Alice, he might not be


    there to save her. Due to that, he thought it best. to lead the person to a different area, so as not to


    cause problems for Alice. He turned around but saw no one except the trees and he did not have time


    for hide and seek. The omegasmunity was the most unsafe but since there was nothing of value,


    no one would go there.


    Charles changed his direction towards the forest, still feeling the movement behind him but when he


    turned around, he saw no one. He wasing from the training arena and still had his training clothes


    on, making it easy for him to run. When he began to run, he felt the person running after him.


    He chuckled. The person must be in for some fun. His pace quickened into the bush before he


    stopped. The strange presence was so strong and being an Alpha wolf, his senses were stronger than


    the normal wolves so he roared,


    “Show yourself.”


    Seconds passed but there was no movement yet, the presence was still strong so he roared again, “I


    don’t have time for games. Show yourself and tell me what you want.”


    Again, there was not movement nor sound. Jaxon was losing his patience. “For thest time, show


    yourself or I promise I’ll kill you if I rummage through these woods and drag you out, whoever you are.”
