Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 170
Kat POV
I had just got off the phone to Andrei after not hearing from him for a few days, I was beginning to worry Sage wasn’t going to mark him, time slipping away. I hoped I didn’t sign his death warrant.
“Hey what’s up with you?” Ezra asks, walking into his office where I was sitting at his desk.
“Nothing, worried about Sage and Andrei”
“You will see them at the Alpha meeting” Ezra tells me. I thought maybe I could speak to Sage while I was there.
“ So what did Andrei want?” Ezra asks, sitting on the edge of his desk and peering down at me, his arms folding over his chest.
“He took in some rogue kids, one of them was his Beta’s mate. But one is orphaned”
“Ah, yeah that makes things tricky without parental or guardian consent, has he checked the blood database?”
“No, that’s why he rang, can you see if Mathias or someone can go take some blood samples for him”
“Yeah I will organise it, have you taken your meds” Ezra asks and I glare at him. I hated the bloody things, they made me feel airheaded.
“No she hasn’t” Mateo says walking in with a glass of water in his hand and my antidepressants”
“You have no excuse now Kat, you aren’t breastfeeding anymore ” Mateo says, passing me the glass of water.
“I don’t need them, ” I tell them, turning back to the computer and placing the glass down. I could feel their eyes on me.
“Kat, there’s nothing wrong with needing medication, it doesn’t make you weak, ” Ezra says, taking the pill from Mateo’s hand.
“Then you take them,” I tell him.
“Don’t make me force it down your throat”
“You can f*cking try Ezra and I will put you in your place real quick” I warn him and he growls.
“ Don’t make me bring Maddox forward Kat. You have to take them. Mathias said your psychosis will get worse without them”
“I will shift, I have been shifting and I am fine now” I tell them. Sick of everyone stuffing medication down my throat. I hated it, they stunted my aura and weakened me, I hated not
being able to fight off Ezra’s commands, unable to put my walls up and shield myself.
“You have three seconds” Ezra warns and I roll my eyes at him feeling for my aura that was severely muted from the meds yet not taking them I could at least feel it now.
“We have this stupid Alpha meeting in two days, I don’t want to be weak when we go to it” I tell him. Bloody stupid we even have to go, I don’t want the title of Queen of Alpha’s. Why can’t things just stay how they are? I have enough shit going on with the twins and our pack and we are also still dealing with Jackson’s old pack needing to be moved and rehoused into new packs, most packs reluctant to take in new members and the rogue populations growing out of control.
“Kat, please don’t do this now, just take the damn thing” I turn in my chair looking up at him. Mateo shifts nervously from foot to foot. I knew he hated when Ezra and I went toe to toe but I was sick of him treating me like a child and I swear he liked me being on meds because it gave him control over me.
“I said no, I will take them after the Alpha meeting” He growls at me about to stand up when Mateo grips his shoulder.
“Maybe she is right, you know her walking into that meeting is going to cause an uproar” Mateo tells him.
“Why will it cause an uproar?” I ask him.
“Every Alpha in the country will be there including the the Alpha of Alphas, you may be there Queen now but they won’t take that lightly, they may challenge you”
“Now why would they do that?”
“Because it is no secret what you did at the Jackson’s pack, rumours have circulated that you were blessed by the Goddess and reborn a Queen, the current Alpha of Alphas is not going to like knowing you pull rank over him, they will sense it the moment you step in there”
“So you think he may challenge me for it?” Mateo nods and Ezra sighs.
“I didn’t think of that, fine but you go back on them right afterwards Kat, no excuses”
“I don’t see why he would feel threatened, I am not taking his title”
“No but you are female, and overruling his title, we have never had Kings and Queens of Alphas, the Moon Goddess was always our Luna Queen well until now, and technically Ezra is King, I stepped out of the Alpha role but even I would pull rank over Dominic now being your Mate”
Ezra nods, I didn’t think of that, Beta King” Ezra chuckles and Mateo slaps his arm.
“Ah this is stupid, I don’t need this stress now. So what happens if they challenge me or either of you?”
“They would be stupid to try, unfortunately we heard rumours that Dominic doesn’t believe you are blessed by the Goddess, and said that he will never bow down to anyone”
“So he is going to cause dramas, great!”
early bloomers, they were only 4 and half months old and already way advanced for their age. I don’t think it will be long before Eziah is pulling himself up on the furniture, as he already tries to when he sits up.
